hey, from last 2months I m using htc m9. its a superb phone. I already updated to 5.1. I found the phone getting heat easily even in normal use. I tried 3 roms. same result. now using viperoneM9 rom. and using always power saving mode. but still the overheating same. is that the kernel issue or anything else? pls help me to fix that.. best wishes for all

Using powersaver mode on a phone with big.LITTLE octacore processor is counterproductive. Powersaver mode disables the 4 big cores and so the LITTLE cores have to do all the work for your daily use. Since they're not as powerful as their big counterparts they always have to run at maximum power. That's why your phone gets hot and your battery is probably dying faster as if you wouldn't use powersaver mode.
So disable powersaver mode and you'll have no problems anymore.

nope, I didn't try it. gonna try it now

try to use interactive mode form the CPU tweaks menu on the Viper One....or try ti use ElementalX Kernel on stock rom, that shoul work...
you can also with some arrangements, use the Viperone Rom with ElementaX Kernell and the EX Manager app.

One X keeps overheating

Hi!
It's the summer where I live and it's like above 40°C in my appartment (Yeah, I've a free sauna, jealous?), and this cause my One X to overheat all the time, I'm not even doing "heavy" stuff, just browsing the Internet or Facebook via Wifi, I already tried to slow down the CPU to 1200Mhz but it is still very hot, is there a solution to avoid this issue (apart from "DON'T TOUCH IT!"), I can't believe that Taiwan is a cold country and that the HTC was not made to work at 40°C...
You can see my ROM and Kernel above this message (signature) I'm trying to install Viper ROM to see if it fixes the issue... :fingers-crossed:
Nevermind, I fixed it, I used wrong voltage and too low down threshold value in SetCPU which caused the CPU to overheat and stand longer activated, silly me

i would like to know the same thing, what voltage calibration did you use and when you were able to get the temp down to what you liked did you still have good gaming performance?

Seriously though, I'm not using my HTC One X anymore, but last time I used it, I used Faux kernel with -100 uV and some Ondemand governor tweaks (mostly to lower frequencies at as state that is just above lags) and it was running lagfree and a lot cooler than stock, but I hope you don't mind loosing a bit of 3D perf...

Your comparing a DHD to a One X.... It's a quad core device *facepalm*...
So before you give up and call the One X a terrible phone (like the 500 rants this forum has) . We need much more information about your device.
1. Have you unlocked the bootloader?
2. Are you running a custom rom/kernel?
3. What base are you on?
4. How long have you had this phone? And how long have you had this problem?

Have you actually read his post? The one you are quoting?
1. As he has ARHD, yes he has
2. Yes he did ARHD
3. Lets say ARHD just for the fun
4. Irrelevant?
If the screen becomes yellow due to the heat, I would say this is hw problem as he tested different roms. UV might help, but the device should not become like this.
What I would be interested in, if he is not using it in direct sunlight on a beach with 40 degrees in the shadow. Even though I saw ppl say their devices survived that.
I am now in Egypt myself and even at night. With -125 UV. And the device still gets hot, red/green blinking on charge.
BUT I never got yellow spots coming out of the screen. And just cuz of that I would says something is wrong on hw level there.

try faux kernel and undervolt it and underclock it using system tuner or setcpu that will solve all your heat issues
I have exactly the same problem. Whenever i use my One X for navigation in the car (using Navigon) the battery drains more than the Kidigi Car Holder can charge. I already checked all advices that there are like:
- Kidigi Car Holder is charging with AC
- disabled 2 Cores
- UV all frequencies by -125mV
- running the phone in airplane mode
- disabling autobrightness
At the moment i´m running ARHD 9.3.2 with Faux 007m Kernel.
Could someone please help?

If it's happening on 2 roms other ones won't help you.
For sure not customized sense ones.
You could compare sense vs cyanogenmod.
But still, the CPU is kernel controlled.
And remember always when you download a Rom it takes like a day to settle, syncing set ups and etc. So to test a Rom you need few days.
Just stick to a Rom for now. And try the advices we already gave you. Undervolting with lets say faux kernel etc.

Install Hidden settings app from play store and in the newly created Power saver settings in the app drawer, disable "Reduce CPU cores" or something like this,(its the second option on the list, thats for sure )because basically your HOX runs on 1 core with 1 Ghz, but if you turn this power saver setting off, you will have a full 4 core perfomance, as it should be. This has solved me the heating problem a long time ago when i SEARCHED THIS FORUM, which option i gladly reccomend now to you!!!

with faux kernal and hidden setting my hox doesn't heat up like before
only once heat up when i force close some apps
but still much better the before :good:
i still want the value that i must change in system tuner
also i notice in system tuner the CPU didn't change at all
waiting for the values
try other roms
Before I face the same problem but after I change the ROM to rd miui, I think the heat still natural for me..
My advice try rd miui for ICS or jelly bean and try cm10 from trip droid ROM with new kernel 3.1.10 for jelly bean.
Now I am still try using trip droid ROM..so far so good about the heat..
Best regards

Then your phone is staying or jumping to max frequency 1200MHz too often. Make sure whichever app you are using to control your CPU settings has minimum frequency set to 312MHz, if that's not an issue, change your governor (I'm using "Interactive" governor at the moment). Governors handle how often your frequency will jump to the next higher frequency. You can find out about each governor available in our phone by a simple search on google
If you don't have a CPU settings app, you can try No-Frills CPU Control - one of the most common apps for CPU control, with a clean and basic interface

Above method would work regardless of stock or custom ROM, you just need root.
Alternatively, you can try using one of the RAM/Memory cleaners that don't require root to clean the running processes to keep your RAM empty. If there aren't too many processes using your CPU, there shouldn't be any reason for it to get hot :fingers-crossed:

T310 battery saving mode

I'm running a slightly modified touchwiz ROM with latest bindroid kernel on my galaxy tab 3 8.0 and was wondering whether it was possible to change the CPU profile for the built I'm battery saver mode.
To be clear, without battery saver max CPU frequency is 1.8ghz, with battery saver enabled its 1.3ghz but I'd like to change that to ~1ghz for low power usage. Is that possible?

I have trickstermod and it somewhat works, the settings don't always stick though. Also I see no way to modify androids built in battery saver mode with trickster, which is what I'm looking for.

Shutdown cpu cores when low usage

I have been using Yureka for few days and see that cpu cores are always on, irrespective of load. Is anyone working on a kernel which can shutdown 4-6 cores when idle or when screen off? I think this would be great for batter.
Try Cpu Tuner, it has options for profiles and to turn off CPU cores after digging into some settings to enable it as far as i remember.
I am using it. However, the current kernel (as well as Sandy) does not support core shutdown so none of the apps have this option. CPU tuner will scale down frequencies to what i want but all 8 cores are always running.
Like this?
How did you shut down the cores please tell us..

Can you share your configuration from CPU Tuner? I can't any option in cpu tuner to shut down cores. Only governors and their affinity settings.

"Simple and Powerful" Config with "Power User" profile.
My CPU tuner was working in non power user mode . Thanks for the info. I can control cpu cores now.
Now only if someone makes a kernel with more governors and automatically shut down cores on low usage . It seem cpu tuner only allows me to set number of cores for a profile.

If I am wrong correct me, if I have understood what you are trying to say, you most probably wish to use the feature where the idle cpu cores are shutdown once the load is not that much.
In my knowledge, that's 'Hotplugging' right ?? coz it more or less does the same function. Try installing some custom kernel that provide you with some really good hotplugging governers. And coz the development for yureka is really in it's full form, there have been few kernels that have been posted in the "Original Android Development" section of our xda forums. Try going through them, you will find what you are looking for !
