Camera crash in cold weather - Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers

Anyone experiencing camera crash in cold weather? The camera app stops working around 10 degrees Celsius and bellow. I did reset the phone, emptied cashe, but no luck. At room temperature no problem at all. Maybe, because I purchased the phone in Singapore.
Thanks.

This is very strange. Does your camera not work under 10 degrees Celsius? Have you seen this phenomenon before? Is it related to your version upgrade? What is the version of your current mobile phone system?

I have been using it over the weekend when temperatures got to 0/-1 degrees Celsius with no issues at all, camera and the phone in general didn't miss a beat

It was 0 degrees F (-18C) this morning and I used it to take a picture. The picture came out slightly blurry but maybe just condensation. But no crashing...

What temp is your artemis running at??

I have Battery Status installed on my Orbit - I'm not overclocking that much, just every now and again when i think it's needed - and the Today plugin has been showing temps of 30 degrees at the end of the day! Last night the device was really annoying me as WMP refused to play any music - i got 2 secs following by 'buffering' for every - required soft reset.
Now this morning - after being on the charger all night, it's at 16 degrees... is WMP playing up because of the heat?? Anyone any advice / input? BTW, i have tried other music players which suffer from the same slow downs so it's definately the device as opposed to WMP being rubbish!...

Thirty degrees isn't that much, is it? Last Summer there were days when I had a roomtemperature of 33 degrees (Celcius). So every object in that room was also at least 33 degrees, even when it was turned off.

I guess not... i'm just looking for a reason for the excessive slow downs i seem to be getting sometimes - when WMP refuses to play my music - it's really frustrating!
I also have pocket mechanic installed and when i get these slow downs i can see in it that CPU usage is constantly at 100%! Why?.. I have no idea!
Then i see the relatively low temp this morning and consider it must be that!
Any ideas greatly appreciated!...
I've realised it's nothing to do with the temperature.
This is a serious issue. Every time i got to listen to music (small mp3s) the device more or less crashes!!
Anyone able to help?

[Q] High Temperature detected powering off for protection

Guys, excuse my English.
This week I bought 2 tablets Lg g Pad. One for me and one for my girlfriend
I think that mine is defective because it almost never gets past the test of Antutu. Always inform your tablet which will be shut down because of heat and it turns off automatically. The few times I managed to do the test, it registers 19 to 22mil points.
On the tablet of my girlfriend I can do this test and usually always score reaches 25,000 points, with little variation.
Someone already managed to fix this? I'll have to take it to rma?
Another recurring problem I'm having with my tablet is the message "Unfortunately, bluetooth has stopped" every time I open the TrackID app. Although I have tested bluetooth and is running smoothly.

I believe the overheating gpad should be rma'd or returned to the place of purchase and exchanged. Something is definitely wrong and of the few I have heard had overheating issues I have not heard of anyone fixing them themselves...
There are different CPU bin's out there. You might have one that takes a higher voltage to hit max clocks. As it is I feel the Gpad runs very close to that software shutdown limit in my testing. I can't remember the number off the top of my head but the stock LG kernel thermal shutdown is like 95 or 97, the qualcomm hard shutdown is 120 I think. So it *is* possibly to fix by changing the kernel shutdown limit higher. I don't think that should be necessary though for the owner to do, that tablet should work with all 4 cores at 100% or you aren't getting what you paid for. You can see in your Antutu scores that yours is thermal throttling the CPU speed and STILL exceeding the limit sometimes.
You can use Faux Clock to turn off thermal settings.

I have absolutely same problems. Antutu test become my pad overheated and go to shutdown. I try to run Antutu without heat protection- same problem but shutdown without message on same place. Also I have some extra temperature while using Chrome or Opera and open a lot of bookmarks. Brightness lowering automatically due overheating and come back automatically then device become "normal" temp. I have 4.4.2 Rooted stock firmware. V50020a.
to disable automatic lowering the brightness, use app from the play store called: "LGBrightnessPatcher", NO SPACE.
also can be used to other LG's devices...

I am.on stock rom. I don't think I can flash any other rom as it's an AT&T one so locked bootloader and no custom recovery etc...

After 4.4.3 (Problems/Features)

Let us know what your have found after the update. Good and bad.
Since the update my WiFi has dropped out on my home network twice. Have to restart or turn airplane mode on/off.

Yeah, its true. It slipped my mind. Probably this particular portion of the software was developed at the last moment, and they didn't have enough time to test it thoroughly
I have narrowed my wifi drop outs to the beyond pod app.
My camera won't focus after updating. I had the problem prior, but did the alcohol microfiber run to get the coating off and it was working great. After I updated the camera now seems like it won't focus, only objects within 5 inches are in focus. I did a factory reset and made sure that the camera wasn't set to macro mode. Nothing is working to fix this problem. I think my camera might just be broken now.

Now after a few days i think that the battery cannot hold on so long as with 4.4.2. Previously i could run it two days with moderate use, now the battery level drops to 20% after 24 hours.
At the update the battery was not fully charged. Is this behavior normal after the update, did i make a mistake, or does anybody else have the same problem?
I'm on 19% after 13 hours. WTF is going on? I cannot see any suspicious app causing this. Can i revert to 4.4.2? LOL...

I have (or had) the same problem as you with the new update. Try clearing the cache partition (that's what I've been told). I'm still keeping my eye on the battery to see if it's fixed. The problem for me was that Android Kernel and Android System was using too much battery.
Here are some screenshots:

These battery results are pretty bad compared to what I was getting prior to 4.4.3 (i got 2d5h once with 4h on screen and 7 hours awake).
Hi! I think i was able to fix it, the issue appeared on other devices which received 4.4.3. I cleared the cache for Google Play Store and for GP Services. Now i'm at 50% after 20 hours.

just tried that and hoping it works. I've tried turning off fast boot but having the same issues others are reporting also.
here is a post from another user:
Hi, everyone, this is my first time here, so bear with me. On Wednesday, August 28, I downloaded the new Kit Kat 4.4.3 update from AT&T onto my One M8. Right after and for a few hours after, everything was in great condition as always. I've had my M8 since launch and haven't had a problem since and hold it very dear to me. Then, after about four hours, I noticed the phone was getting hot, really hot. I had power saver on as always and I saw that the CPU was taxed at 97%, just having Instagram running and YouTube actively showing a video. So I restarted the phone, clearing the cache and making sure that nothing was working too hard. That's when the problems really started coming up. It was getting hot but I ignored it and went to the Play Store to update my banking app and download Reddit News. After seven minutes of a normally one minute (if that) update, I stopped the download, cleared the cache and tried again. Nothing. So Google Play won't download, update, or install apps, Google, or third-party. That's not all. Hangouts will not send messages. Even in full LTE connectivity and 5 GHz Wifi AC, message could not send both to Android users (one used messages, the other Hangouts) and to an iPhone. It was like deja vu with my old iPhone 4S. BUT THAT'S NOT ALL. YouTube was giving me hell, too. When I would type into the search bar to search for a video, the search bar would clear. For example, if I'm looking up and type into the search bar on YouTube "Linus Tech Tips," then it'll work. But if after that I backspace or "x" out "Linus Tech Tips," and type something else, say, "Build a Gaming PC," If I use Swype (Swiftkey, Google Keyboard, or HTC Sense), the first word shows up, but as I'm typing, the subsequent words are erased and "Linus Tech Tips" shows up in the search bar (check him out if you don't already). This is EXTREMELY frustrating and now I can't watch The Joy of Painting. Damn. Finally, the CPU and heat I mentioned before is crazy. The CPU is always between 79% and 99% at all times. the RAM is usually at about 75% as normal, but the CPU is running nuclear hot. It's going to 105-115 degrees Fahrenheit. This worries me, all of this, because I wonder if this is the fault of the new 4.4.3 update for the AT&T M8 model or maybe underlying causes. I've had Malwarebytes scan my phone and find nothing. That caches are cleared and nothing seems to work. If anyone can help I would be extremely grateful because my only option in my mind is to do a hard factory reset of the device. Thanks to anoye who can help, and if not, then, oh well. Thanks, and sorry I made an essay out of this, this is really a big problem for me.
another user just posted:
Well, I think that the factory reset fixed it. It's been over an hour now, and the phone isn't overheating anymore. Battery life has only dropped 2% in that hour instead of the 2% every five minutes after the update.
After the 4.4.3 update the camera's manual mode doesnt change the exposure the same way as it did in 4.4.2 so i cant see the pics in the viewfinder at night before i actually take the pic and look at it, and that really sucks.

Stock weather app to Celsius

Who know is it possible to change stock weather app from farringate to Celsius?
having the same issue any ideas?
For me, the problem solved itself yesterday, it is now correctly displaying temps in Celsius degrees and wind speed in km/h and the app messages (checking weather conditions etc) are in my system language (Italian) so it seems that it's just a server-side issue that it takes some time to be ready for everybody.
Hmm, still Fahrenheit on mine and has been since I first set it up (around 2 months now). My handset is a Meizu M2 Note, so not sure if that's causing the problem
Still the same for me can't change it
Check the settings in Google Now. That's where I changed mine.

if it was a PC, would be just looking at the task manager to see what's taking up all the processing power... but idk if there is such a thing on the phone.
I would assume your best bet is to reproduce issue then report to Samsung Members app > Get Help > Error Report. Clearly note that you checked with SafeMode and it's not happening in SafeMode, and share your issue reproduced video.
Wakelock detector can show you which apps keep your cpu busy. You need to give permissions via adb so it can monitor all process.
