[Q] Deactivate overheat warning?? - Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti

Getting a weird overheating message on the stock 4.4.2 rom (XWDNF1)
It basically says 'your device is overheating some apps will be closed'.
Then it may pop up again and say 'X amount of apps were closed you can only use the phone and contacts'.
The warning is bogus though as I can feel the device to the touch and tell it's not overheating. Even if it was, I don't want my rom making the decision to stop on it's on.
Does anyone know how to deactivate this warning?
I'm using the: Stock Samsung rom, Rooted with a Stock Kernel.

Here is a screenshot, I'd appreciate any insight. I figure this is a stock kernel "safety" thing. But, is there a way to disable it? Do I just need to use a different kernel?

This happened to me on civato's custom rom/kernel once as well. Not sure how to disable it. Probably baked into the kernel code somewhere. I only got the message that one time so have not really been concerned with it. Was not the same message though because it didn't close any apps automatically or make me do anything. I shut it down for a bit and restarted at later time. My tablet was not hot either as all I was doing was browsing with Dolphin.

[Q] Answer phone

every other time my phone rings I cant answer it. The accept button just wont move?? is it just me or have anyone else had this error I have a dezire z
Do you have set CPU set to 245MHz @ screen off?
no i dont, why?
Well that could be one cause, maybe it's a bad app causing your phone to temporarily freeze? Can you slide it the other way and ignore the call?
Did you try flashing a different kernel?

why do you suggest this? how do you know hes using kernels? im just trying to see what your connection to the solution is -its quite a specific answer to a problem that hasnt really been examined. what rom is he on, etc before you can start talking about kernels -- so can you clarify?
accept button - do you mean the slider? if you have cmod - just activate settings to disable lock menu/trackball/ whatever --also you could try the no-lock unless you have security issues.
if no cmod -- theres apps to reduce the lockage -- that may help you get your phone calls but still doesnt fix the problem? you could try enomther's and his awesome extra ssettings app has all those options
Thanks for your help, well it is my wifes phone and it is fresh from the store, just a bunch of apps installed.
I will try some things and see if i can figure it out. And yes it is the slide button, can that be switched for a push button, Is it theme based or in the dialer?? hope you understand what i say.

If its a stock DESIRE Z and not a G2 then I think it's safe to assume its got sense on it and not AOSP. Did you try hard resetting it? (power down and pulling the battery for at least 30 sec) other than that id check for any OTA updates in the settings menu. OR if you're willing/know how, you can root it and run CM or virtuous. Both ROMs are excellent. If you do that and the problem persists, it could very well be a faulty unit. You have a lot of options!
I found I had problems answering calls when I had a specific make of screen protector on the phone. As soon as I took that off and went back to a previous one I'd used then it was fine again ! It's a long shot, but I thought I'd throw it in there.
Problem solved, An update did the trick, thanks for helping out my friends,

Screen turning on and off by itself

My daughters att gs3 screen keeps turning on and off all the time all by itself. its all pure stock, NO root, stock rom still.
Data block on her line.
She doesnt have much installed in it and i dont want to reset it. is there anything i can install that will tell me what is causing it?
I know there is a better battery stats app. Not sure if it needs root? Imunsure it will help as its a bit confusing to read thru all the readings
Strangely mines did this for a day and it killed my battery. Hasn't happened since then though. Glad I wasn't going crazy. Mines is also stock no root or anything.

This is happening on my phone too, and when the screen turns on by itself it won't time out, have to manually lock it. Thought it was something to do with smart stay but mine is disabled. I flashed a custom rom yesterday and noticed it still happening. Carriers hardware support thinks it is a hardware issue and want me to rma my phone.

I think your only option is reseting the phone to make sure the phone doesnt have hardware issues. Try a fresh stock install from odin.

[Q][Help] Phone constantly "reboots", stock firmware, have logcat!

Alright, so my girlfriend's Samsung Galaxy S II started to go through these weird partial reboots several weeks ago (maybe even months). The phone would randomly go black, play the stupid shutdown/startup (dont remember which) jingle...then just simply be at the lock screen with a crossed out circle where the signal bars would be (for just a couple of seconds). When this happened, I used to just tell her to shutdown the phone, take out the battery, and let it sit for about 30 seconds, then put everything back together and start it back up. This seemed to work, which made me think it might have just been a software or at worst a memory issue of some kind.
This issue was always intermittent, but now, no matter what I do, it just keeps looping this "restarting" problem. I can't access any internal memory space from my computer because in the time it takes to connect, it just "reboots" again. I made a logcat of the phone up until the "reboot", and in doing so noticed that when I would browse the phone via adb shell, I saw no mount for the sd card...which then lead me to believe maybe it was an issue with that. I checked the sd card for corruption (and prior to even using it, checked that all blocks were read/writable (legit)), but that led nowhere.
Anyways, not having any idea where to go next, nor where to begin or what to look for in the 5000+ lined logcat, I turn to xda with hopes of getting some sort of help. Thanks in advance for any I get!
EDIT: Oops, some other important notes I didn't mention (other than in title); this is running stock firmware, only OTA. I tried once to upgrade her to ICS via Kies, but the upgrade would never complete. She also refused to let me root her phone...so unless there is a stock recovery mode, her phone has none...
bump, as its been a week and no responses. If anyone has any ideas or can figure out whats wrong from the logcat, please help.
Almost 3 weeks...no answer...isn't there at least 1 person who has an idea or can deduce one from the logcat? Pretty soon I'm gonna have to tell her to give up and get it "fixed" (ie, swapped for a refurb with most likely all her data lost)...

Looking at the logcat if it is accurate the problem is overheating and it is shutting itself down. That's why it keeps rebooting from I read but I could be wrong. Also looks like it has wakelock issues. Lot of wakelock errors in logcat. Some app or apps are causing the wakelock issue find them and remove them that might solve the problem.

i say try to odin back her phone to stock on here there a good post for it to get her back and if she had Gmail sync there shouldnt be a problem unless she really dont want to download everything again i say give odin a shot and then from there upgrade through kies its tricky you have to make sure you have 50% battery life or more and kies errrors out sometimes but it does work i update my friends phone as he does not like all the root stuff lol so i always your kies after a couple errors it will work and thats your best option if she doesnt want to loose anything kies will back it all up for her and are you sure that power button aint sticking sounds like you have a looping issue are you able to go into download mode or are you familiar with this ?
Idk how to read logcats but another idea could be you have the sticky power button issue. I think if it was overheating u would feel it and mention it in the op.

I used to have this problem when my phone was on ICS. I found that putting it back to GB, and using custom JB roms fixed it. I'd try those.
For starters, thanks everyone for the responses! After this long, its really great to see so many in one day!

Thats what I thought, because it seemed to get exceptionally hot before "rebooting"...at first...then I was noticing it "rebooting" when clearly cold. If it is indeed overheating like I had thought in the very beginning, is there anything I can do about it? What does it use for heat conductivity and displacement? And for that matter, I would think if it was overheating though, it would actually reboot, not the half-ass semi-reboot its been doing...
And what is wakelock exactly that it would cause an issue? Only apps I see using it are WootWatcher, KeyguardViewMediator and PowerManagerService.

I would use odin...but the phone doesn't stay on long enough to do much of anything before "rebooting". Also, she is already using stock firmware + OTA updates. And her contacts are not what I am worried about, its her photos and such. This is the very reason why I hate internal memory for phones...
And I'm pretty sure its not a sticky power button, I had seen that being a common issue when researching before posting. And again, if I have not been clear, its not exactly "rebooting", just semi-rebooting; phone starts up, crap starts running, a min or 2 later, phone acts like its restarting (plays sound and all), then just comes back to the lock screen immediately...I can't really describe it much more than that.
And no, I'm not familiar with "download mode"

Ya, like I said in the reply above this, I don't think its the sticky power button problem...but I could always be wrong. I only didn't mention over heating because I felt I did a good job of ruling it out.

Its running GB atm, never updated to ICS via Kies...
I wish I could help you further but i can say one thing, the rebooting that your describing is called a "hot reboot". I know what ur talking about and others will too if u use that term. Good luck.

I'm sure there is a reason. But you didn't give us enough information to determine what that reason could be.

I actually enable most of those too "good to be true" misc tweaks, and the streaming settigs and some more but i deactivate them. what i just realise is the thePimp my CPU tweak was way up (i didnt touch it but im wondering if my swiping action could have caused it to go up) , should that be? and i had SD Booster installed. Can they both run together? Can that cause it? Especially the cpu tweak being so high?

[Q] No Notification of Incoming call...HELP

Help ..My phone is rooted..stock rom
for some reason when i am receiving a call ..the phone rings...but nothing shows on screen...i cant even answer the phone..
the only way to answer right now is to open phone app...
What went wrong? Did i delete something? Does anyone have stock phone apk and is it possible to put that back on my phone?
Did it work okay before you rooted the phone?

Yes no problems before
The best solution is to un-freeze the apps that you have frozen and then see if the problem still exists.
Depending on how you rooted, you can reload the stock system and kind of start over, but you should really check out the phones functions good and make sure they are working before you start changing stuff.
Always freeze apps first to make sure you aren't creating problems as you go and with the memory this phone has on it, chances are you don't need to actually delete anything.
Doing a lot of READING about what people are finding, how things react, how to do things like flashing back etc... is always useful rather than jumping in and just start blindly making changes.
Keep a record of what you changed so you know how to unchange it.

Im thinking i did delete something because when i checked those settings the box was NOT checked and i dont know how that happened.
BUT this did not fix the problem...When i am not using Nova launcher a minimized Ringer will pop up when i am called that i can maximize.
I also found a file on my comp that might be the issue ..its called Call_Keypad_bg (or something like that)
How can i put the file back into com.android.phone?
Anyone able to help?

Your posts are very odd. Sound like there is a lot you are not telling us. Sounds like you did much more then just root. With the info provided I would say you need to odin back to stock as we are missing a full accounting of your customizations.

Will flashing back to stock trigger KNOX? I do not have custom recovery.
Can you link an OP for the procedure so im sure not to brick .
