Problem is next,after going outside where temperatures are a bit cold 0-5 Celsius, my hd7 does not take photos with led flesh,in dark in night even if l turn my led flash light always on in camera set up phone do not flash the photo. After geting inside house where temperature are normal like 20 Celsius everything is ok but after few minutes (hd7 customize to the room temperature) l contact HTC about this issue and they are telling me that phone should operate normal from 0-45 Celsius.
I even install some flashlight app from marketplace and in same conditions like l write in start of this text the two led flash lights are working,but when l start camera or video mode-nothing.
Has any one this problem? Or is it software or hardware glitch?

I had this problem when my battery was low, could be there is not enough charge?

No this is happening even on full battery..official mail from htc to me was that it is not likely hardware problem,they believe it is software and their recommendation is to hard reset device
l had a confirmation for this,today we test 2 hd7 and temperature was +10 Celsius outside,we put this to phones on table outside in garden,we haven't touch them about 10min. After that we grabbed both phones and tried to take evening picture with flash,and there was the issue-led did not do the job,even we turn always on in camera settings and nothing so we turn phones off and on (rebooted), and again nothing.
so then we put phones inside pockets of jacket near body,after 5min we take phones out of pocket and try to take photos-this time led flesh worked flawlessly. So my conclusion is that in camera mode something is wrong with HD7 led flesh.
Flashlight app that l have installed in HD7 working fine in cold and warm conditions.
Battery was 50% on both phones during this test
HTC have You seen this post??

hi,
I used a xda diamond with Igo navi 8.3 for GPS navigation in the car by temperatures around 35 degrees celsius. Unfortunately Wifi was enabled (even more heating) and the sun was shining on the xda's case - suddenly the device switched off itself.
I put it in the shadow, batterry and cover away at let it cool down - but since days it won't start anymore. The initnal screen is displayed, but when the numbers of the software versions would be displayed the device turns itself off again. The same when I try without the SIM card.
Does anybody have a clue what I could do to make the device working again? Or has a part really died by heat?
Thanks for advice

You could try a different battery in it. The battery could be the only bad part. Worth a try.

after some more days of waiting and recharching the battery over 10 hours the device startet again and since then its working - maybe the battery's chemical elements got a damage through heat which was healed during some waiting time....
Thanks for advice!
I have the Telus Milestone running 2.1....
has anyone experienced the camera flash problem?? Basically when the phone battery is under 50% or so.. the flash for the camera goes off a second too early it seems, and the pictures turn out dark (for night time pics).... however, when the battery is full, and over 50% or so, flash works perfectly fine.. lighting up the whole area for a good well lit picture to be taken....
It's pretty irritating because by the end of the day, my battery isnt the fullest and I can't take any pics if i wanted to if it wasn't well lit..
Ok, this is going to sound odd but I need to know if our G1 phones with froyo installed could be "held on " if near a magnet when not in use.
I rooted my wifes G1 to match what I have in mine(chromer4.5). She has always had hers stock until now. After I got it all set up, the battery was horrendous while mine was fine. Same phone same age. She did install a couple of widgets I was not familiar with so I removed them 1 at a time. I removed a clock last night and left the phone, battery at 55 percent, on the table not charging. This morning, about 8 hours later, it was at 54 percent. I was sure the clock wan't it but I said "what the hell" and gave it back to her declaring the problem over. She charged it to full and stuck it in her case. By lunch it was at 35 percent. I was stunned. The only difference was it was in her case, one that closes with magnets in the flap. I know there is a car dock app for other phones that can use a magnet to turn on.
If any one actually took the time to read all that, is it possible there is some driver using the compass sensor to keep the phone running in the background when near a magnet?
Thanks,
I highly doubt this was a magnet. Its possible and no electronic device should be near a magnet anyway. But not sure. Did you check if she had more running processes going on than you? Is her screen set brighter than yours. Does she have her screen set to turn off at a certain time. Could of pressed against the case. Popped her screen on. And stayed on? This are all things to think about maybe.

I'm still trying things. I have mine "cooking" in the case now and the results so far are not conclusive. I lost 10 percent in 1 hour with phone doing nothing. I will keep trying different combinations until I think I know exactly what the pattern is. I have tried to set everything the same.
My next test will be to turn the phone around in the case. The magnet location is between the word 'google" and the camera.
I will also try to lay the magnet in the same spot and get a logcat to see if anything starts.
Any news yet? Id like to know. I'm learning from you also uno

I have tried so many things its hard to bring you up to date but I am 100 percent sure the case is the source of the battery loss.
I used the case for a day while my wife just kept her phone in a pocket. I was down to 20% in 4 hours of very light use while she had 83% left after 9 hours.
I do have an additional theory for why it drains the battery. It could be blocking the signal so the phone is constantly seeking signal while in the case.
Today she is going to put the phone in the case with the screen facing the magnets.
I will post the results of the test.
Hmmmmm wierd

The case must be pressing buttons on the phone, if ditching the case does not solve the problem.
-charge phone to %100
-turn off phone unplug charger
-reconnect charger and wait for led to turn green
-turn on phone and repeat until phone says %100 instantly and led turns green instantly.
^ This fixed my battery problems i recommend you try it either way (you might get some extra battery life).
Froyo + magnet = battery trouble ? why ?
Hi,
I've tried to search for a solution but haven't find any. You know there is a message when battery temperature gets too high then charging stops. The popup message is very very annoying: I use navigation and blackbox while driving. And when this message comes I have to press OK, and 5 secs after it appears again... very very annoying.
I agree with not to overheat the battery but why not just stop charging without this message? Is there any trick to eliminate this? In summer time and sunny days this msg comes very often. I have to place a piece of plastic to car's ventillation hole to minimizing the chance of this msg.
I don't care if it's charging or not, I just don't want to see this msg.
Please help if you have any idea!
I'm on stock JVR now, rooted, underclocked @ 800MHz. Other ROMs (CM7, MIUI) just stops carging without any message.
Had the same problem awhile back,reflash jvr, and dont use undervolting/overclocking programs/kernels.

+1 Dont OC/uV too much.
My apologies guys, but please read: I don't use OC/UV, I use stock and underclock.
With normal use and simple charging everything goes well but under heavy use I get this message while charging. Under heavy use I mean navigation, blackbox, and of course phone is at the windscreen while heated by the sun. The phone's glass is hot. It's normal of course because I use CPU intensive apps.
I repeat: I don't care about charging or not, just want this message to be disappeared.
I just unplug mine from the charger when this pops up. It happens with me in exactly the same circumstances. GPS navigation, dashboard of the car, and bright sunny days, it's not an overclock issue, just high ambient heat source, high cpu usage plus charging.
I also find it's aggravated by the silicon skin case I use.

Yes I'm doing the same as workaround. But other ROMs just stop charging and continue when phone cooled down without any message. It would be very nice to just remove this message by a script or editing a script or something else (I'm not a dev just an "I-like-to-hack" power user).
DO your devices get extremely hot at all? Mine did ,to the point that it was to too hot to handle, im surprised the dam thing did not exploded.
As for removing the message i have not a clue how too, i do know however that is is triggered by the thermal sensors.
I can also recall this happening with my windows mobile devices a few times,this happened when the gps services were stuck working in the background.
In all occasions the only fix a found was to re flash the rom.

No, it's not too hot, it's just warm enough. I don't say it's abnormal because in direct sunlight while charging and using cpu intensive apps it's normal. Just try to figure out is there any chance to do this all without this message...
Ok, I'll wait for someone who knows something or know someone who has seen someone who know something...
Referring to other threads I'm not the only one with this problem and not SGS is the only one with this problem.
While this message is not needed and has no function it has to be eliminated some way because tapping OK is very disturbing while driving/navigating/etc...
Script? Kernel patch/hack? Something? If some ROMs can do it (like MIUI) there must be a way to have it disappeared...
I had the same problem with a Galaxy S II today. First, it began to warn me that was starting charging. And 1 second later it warn the Power Saving was activated and the charger was turned off.
Later, it said 'Charging pause. Voltage too high'. When I've tried to power off the phone, it was powering on by itself.
During the morning, I've used the phone to consume battery. At the afternoon, I put it via USB cable and it seems the problem is solved, for now.
I'm using the ICS ROM beta, by Samsung, have some days.
Has anyone experienced heat on the left side of the phone (mostly under the bixby button) when using it normally (just browsing and watching youtube)
And also i want to see everyone's battery temperature when using the phone lightly (the average of mine is 37 degrees)
what should i do
same problem here, i get got when i use the camera, or under very light use. Should i change it????

When I first got the phone and was setting up apps, data and other stuff, I did feel that the left side as you mentioned did get warmer than I would like. I didn't do anything intensive with the phone besides what I have mentioned above. If I hold the phone for 20 or so minutes, chatting/using Instagram or something else, it feels that the left side is kind of warm... I suspect is it also because of warm hands too. Try watching YouTube videos by leaning the device against something so you won't have to hold it and see if that left side is still warm
Yes since the latest update, my s10 got very hot during Charging (i did not use ise) . In fact it got so hot that i Had to remove the Case and let it cool Off because i thought there is Something wrong with it.

37 deg. C - that's a normal human body temperature(36.6) so, if you keep it in your pocket the phone doubles as your body thermometer:laugh:
Now seriously, it's summertime in the northern hemisphere, we need to consider the ambient temps and using video recording at high fps for a prolonged time can get your phone really, really hot.
