Smoking HERO - Off-topic

Well today I left my cdma HTC HERO in a walk-in cooler at work to stock soft drinks and forgot I left it in there for 2 hours and when I went to power it on immediately after I got it out it started smoking out of the volume controls on the side and immediately shut-down. Boot screen loaded however battery indicator showed to to be all red before shut-down. Battery was around 95% before I left it in the cooler. Firgured I had toasted my phone (well in this case i guess iced it) so I said damn now I got to use my upgrade so it wasn't all that big of a deal however I gave the phone an hour rest and low and behold the phone powered back up with battery around 70% with ROM working normally. Just a little story I figured I'd share.

probably had condensation on the motherboard, lucky you didn't fry it.

Awesome Totaly want to do this with my hero lol

wow , u gotta be really stupid to turn on a phone after leaving it in a place of 99% condensation

True, you shoud let it dry naturaly. Don't put it on the radiator.

People have sketchy moments. You know if your $250 phone had that happen you'd try to turn it on. You wouldn't automatically let it dry.

Wtf is 99% condensation? Anyways, no condensation occurred until he took it out if the cooler and back into warmer, and more than likely moister, air. I routinely take my Hero into and out of storage freezers at work set to -10°F and blast freezers set to -30°F with no issues.

Resurrect a toilet dived G1?

I realize this has probably been posted and resolved but I cannot find any solutions yet. So here's the deal:
My fiancee dropped ger G1 into the toilet abot 2 months back or so. I was cleaning and stumbled across it and figured I would check and see if it had dried out okay or not. It is a non rooted black G1 running android 1.6. I tried a coupke of things and figured out I can turn it on now but it goes directly to the bootloader screen. I have ran the DREAIMG.nbh for rc29 and it will update it okay no problems. The issue is that after a soft boot(? Is that the right phrase?) By pushing menu power and call that it boots up...and goes right back into bootloader and tried to run the rc29 update again.
Has anyone else stumbled across this problem and if so how did you solve it? It boots into the factory recovery fine also and will run update.zip files but then once again boots directly to bootloader.
I am trying different things and tweaking here and there because I have a pretty strong feeling this isn't impossible. I'm just overlooking something I'm sure. If this issue has been resolved can someone post the link to the thread or even pm me and give me ideas here. I'm trying to root it since it seems the operating system is shot as is.

the reason it goes into the bootloader is most likely that there is still moisture under the keys .. my friend had the same situation .. the keys were constantly making contact and thus went wherever the keys led .. for instance: a stuck home key would get you into recovery .. a stuck back key gets into bootloader .. it takes quite a lot of effort and patience but if you can completely dry out the insides you should get it functioning again
Also, im pretty sure the G1 goes into the bootloader if there is a hardware failure(like the radio is not responding).
And how the hell did your fiance drop her G1 into the toilet? She better be hot because she sure as hell doesnt seem smart.

Happens to a lot of people...Kind of a rude statement for you to make about his fiance. On another note, OP, did you try burying the G1 in a bowl of rice (uncooked of course) and leaving it for a few days and then trying again. That has never failed me.

+1.... the rice trick usually works as long as you haven't messed around with it too much while it is wet.
make sure you remove the battery, sdcard and sim card so the rice can absorb more water too

Yup, I had a friend that dropped a G1 into a toilet months ago. He took everything apart you can take apart ie battery cover, battery, sim, SD card etc.. and he put it in a bowl of rice for 3 days. It's worked fine ever since..
you could get isopropanol ;D thats pure alcohol, then put the lower side of the g1 into a cup of that and let it dry for ~1 day. if that doesnt work i dont know how to go further ;D

Double ditto on the rice. Instead of a bowl, though, I recommend a ziplock plastic bag. That way no additional moisture is getting the attention from the rice.
We did this with my wife's old phone, worked like a goddamn charm. I was amazed.
+5 on the rice idea. did that a long time ago with my brothers G1. He jumped into a lake after a discgolf disc. more worried about losing a $20 disc than a $300 phone. (We both pre-ordered the phone and i think thats how much it was.)
To be honest, there really is no point. The fact that its been like 2 months means most of them moisture should be gone. The reason the phone is going into the bootloader is because of a hardware failure. When the phone boots(the G1 screen) it runs hardware diagnostics. If there is a failure(which there is probably due to toilet water corrosion) it will go into the bootloader.
Anyway, forget the g1. She is your fiance ffs. Buy her something nice, like a MT Slide, or a Nexus
Let this be a lesson to all of you that get your phones wet. immediately after they get wet, remove the batteries, and submerge the phone in alcohol. Then put the phone in a ziploc bag with LOTS of silica gel packets. Leave in bag for 2 days.
Another story related on a french G1 forum :
A guy helped his sister to move. Exhausted, he went to the balcony to smoke and take a deep breath. While he was taking his cigarettes out of his pants, he realized he had also hung his G1, which fell from the 4th floor.
Sick of what occured, he went down to get his G1 back. Hopefully and even supernaturally, the screen was intact. Even more, when he tried to turn it on, he saw the G1 screen. It booted normally, and everything was working perfectly !!
Surprising, isn't it ?
That's why the HTC Dream (G1) is Magic (MT3G) !!
Lol I am getting her the mt slide next week lol. And in regards to "she doesn't sound very smart"... My fiancee works in assisted living and doesn't have much downtime. If you really need details(and why would you?) It fell out of her scrub pocket where you'd think it'd be safe at. S*** happens lol no need to say what was said.
My friend who has helped me rescue my phone a couple of times in my early rooting days recommended the rice bowl idea. Furthermore the phone doesn't boot into the G1 screen then to bootloader. Its going straight to bootloader. If its a radio problem is it possible to go thru and rename the current G1 radio to update.zip and flash it in recovery? Then the danger spl(which I have all saved on my pc from my rooting my G1). Thoughts? Ideas?
And thanks for the help guys btw

The rice trick won't help you anymore as there should be no moisture left after all that time. If you can disassemble it, clean it's guts with alcohol to get rid of shorts and it should probably be fine

Hey dude, sorry about the "she doesn't sound very smart." I was just trying to make a joke but I now realize that it was pretty rude. No need to explain. Also, when i said that, I didn't consider the fact that girls need to sit down to pee.
Now if a dude did that, that would be stupid.

My old man stuck his hero in the washing machine once..
I left it sit out in the sun for a while to warm it up, then let it sit on a plate of
rice, covered with a paper towel.. The rice helped suck up some of the moisture.
I'd have used Silica dessicant, but didn't have any at the house.
His screen looked funny for a couple of weeks, but eventually returned to
normal. I did have to replace his battery, as lithium batteries do not like water.
Lithium in general reacts to water, and as such, I had a hunch his battery was
toast, so after I got the moisture out of the phone, I tested his phone with my
battery to make sure it powered up.
Can't say that your phone survived the water, but I will almost guarantee that
your battery did not survive the water.
any idea on the bad esn phone???
First Thing To Do If That Ever Happens Again (Hopefully Not) Is Immediately Take Out The Battery, Then.... What You Still Probably Can Try.... Get Out The Old "Hair-Dryer, & Get To Work!! If You Can, Blow The Air Into The Slot For The "Usb Cord" **It Worked For Me A Few Months Back** ??Might or Might-Not Work?? But It's Worth A Try!! Good-Luck!!

Off (Android) topic: smoke alarm just saved my life..

Massive off topic: Guys, make sure you all have smoke alarms in your home. Just saved my & my girlfriend's life. Accidentally turned the oven on (fckng ridiculous in itself that you can flick the buttons on that easily..) max. Lid was down, towel that was on it started burning half an hour later. Girlfriend was sleeping (3 am here), I should have been as well.
I noticed the smell in my computer room, 5 seconds later the alarm started. Threw the towel in the sink, have now everything open to get the smoke out.
Without it..? Fck knows..
They're at most 10$ / piece. Just saved two lives probably. Get them tomorrow !!

Thanks OP, good advice!
Kind of related.. I left a candle burning on my coffee table without thinking about it, jumped in the shower for 10 minutes and when I got out the WHOLE candle was on fire! I've never seen anything like it. Didn't even know it was possible.
So don't forget to blow out you candles as well, even if your only going to be out of the room for a few minutes.

5 years ago, just closed the pub at 3 am. While waiting for the bartender who's on the phone fighting with his girl, I'm checking the window of a little furniture & gift shop across the road. I'm thinking, "hm, there's a bit of smoke in there. Ow, and a candle. OW, the fckng decoration curtain that is above it is burning!!". Called fire brigade, instant almost response, place saved with minor smoke damage. No insurance would have ever covered the stupid young girl's mistake to leave a huge candle burning after close. Poor people are still trying to give me discounts whenever I buy gifts.
Buy smoke alarms! Or have alert bar staff across the road..!!
P.S. Hate candles passionately..
Scary stuff! Glad you guys are ok. Be sure to test your smoke detectors every 6 months as well. In the US, daylight savings time is the standard reminder. Do you have something like that in your country?
I think my next move would be replacing that oven.

Good idea!
The alarms I have though do produce a short peep (very loud) as soon as the battery starts getting low. I just changed the battery in one of them actually. And, proactively, the one in the alarm that just went off..
I'll deal with the oven hereafter. Ordering child-safe button covers.

and the top of the phone gets hot, not warm, but hot.
mind you, i don't have a sim card inserted, could that be a factor?

I have also had this issue. Thought it was my imagination as it has been very hot lately, then realized my phone gets very warm in pockets for some reason.
its happens in my front pocket no mater if its shorts or slack it start to get hot with in 4 to 5 minutes. Then I just carry it in my hand. I'm not rooted so its all stock. I have not gotten the notification for the update yet but I hope it fixes this problem. I think it has something to do with the excessive movement of the gyroscope triggering some action or process. still happening.

That's was happening to me to. Disable the LG health app as few post before and it should stop it. This worked for me and you don't need to be rooted to disable apps. One note is that there are 2 LG Heath apps running 1 you can force stop and the other you can disable.
Was at a block party all day yesterday and I noticed my phone never got hot after disabling the LG health app.
Hope this helps

Rooted lg health app completely deleted :/ as for the mods I had it did it before and after I rooted so no mods still had issues. The weird part is it's instant. Like I can take the battery out for a half hour put it in turn the phone on and put it in my pocket screen facing in and it's hot till it completely boots. But the phone itself doesn't feel hot when I pull it out. It's the weirdest thing.

I know you completely deleted the LG health app. But from what I remember there are 2 LG health apps running I force stopped one and the other I disabled, don't remember the exact app names but both apps were next to each other. so just double check and make sure both LG Health are gone from your "ALL" apps view.
You can check under Settings > General > Apps >swipe 3 times to the left till you reach ALL and go down and make sure none of the 2 LG health apps is running.

I know you completely deleted the LG health app. But from what I remember there are 2 LG health apps running I force stopped one and the other I disabled, don't remember the exact app names but both apps were next to each other. so just double check and make sure both LG Health are gone from your "ALL" apps view.

He's right! I missed the other lg health agent app when I deleted stuff. It hasn't 100% fixed the issue but but instead of hot it's just luke warm lol

I think you should try and get it replaced for a new one. I picked two brand new ones from T-Mobile on Friday night and have not had any issues with them. My wife is constantly on hers but not such a "heavy" user like me. I tried replicating the issue you're experiencing but it just doesn't get hot. Even from my usage it just feels warm like most phones so. Surprisingly this thing stays cooler than my Note 4. Way cooler! Makes me wonder how come so many people that own the G4 have issues with heat. I guess the Note 4 is hotter? I do know we used to have to figure out ways to keep the Note 4 cool on first boot because it would get so hot. Few folks actually had to put theirs in the fridge just so it could boot.
Since doing a full 10N update, with wifi on in my pocket it gets warm. I also use LG health and Google Fit. But not until I turned off wifi did it start cooling down.
