Phone dieing? - HTC Incredible S

My phone for some reason keeps turning off and no matter what I press I cannot get any response. The only way to get my phone alive again is to pull the battery out and reinsert. I have never dropped my phone. This has happened twice this week Tuesday and Saturday.
I'm unlocked via htcdev and s-off using revolutionary. I'm on ice cold 7.2 farewell edition.
Any help on preventing this or explanation would be great.
Thank you

Give us some more info. What rom, what kernel, any rogue apps just before this started happening?

Ice cold 7.2 farewell edition, and its just the standard kernel. No apps have been installed that should of caused this as ive used them all for months.

IMHO it unfortunately sounds like a hardware issue unless someone else has some insight into it.

Thats what i was afraid of haha. If it was a hardware issue, due to HTCdev unlock does it mean i cant claim on warranty?

Its because oc i had the same issue.

Set you device in tge Settings to
192 -10xx mhz ondemand and look if it reboots.
If it does make a backup and wipe everything and install the rom and apps again.

[Q] overclock

could anybody help me overclock my htc salsa...and what wld be the stable clock tht i cld use
Max clock setting is 800, or you'll overheat the handset.
Sent from my HTC C510e using Tapatalk
The stock kernel supports your cpu to clock at max of 800Mhz..
We need a overclocking kernal, which may support upto 1.2GHz..
No DEV's has got yet for HTC salsa.
Need to wait for some more time..
Overclocking results into overall performance including your battery...
But not reliable...
Sent from my HTC Salsa C510e using XDA App
My Salsa over heats even for 800mhz, perticularly when I use gMaps. I tried to reduce the speed with another kernal but did not work. Phone stopped booting. So i had to restore it to stock and then re root.
kernel is responsible for the communication between hardware and software components hence it is different in each devices according to device config(hardware and software capabilities).
u cannot flash some kernel just like that..
u need a dedicated one for salsa..

Yes i realised that after screwing my phone... luckly i did not brick it.
Yeah and it would be able to be overclocked pretty high as well. Try the dev boards you might get more luck.

nope im testing ones given to me...but its slow process and most kernels ive tested are basic, they haven't even got wifi enabled in them.
What about the "customized" kernel in .sense, does that have oc potential?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium... Jokes, its a Salsa
That's a stock kernel untouched. Nothing special and unusable on other roms

Ice cold sandwich battery life

Is it just me or is the battery life on ice cold sandwich pretty bad. I'm struggling to get through the day on full charge. Never had that problem with other sense roms.

Battery is great for me
Lasts me two days
Generally its a bit more than 4 hours of screen use per charge
Although I do have it undervolted
What do you use your phone for?
Sent from my Incredible S using XDA
its awful for me as well, even when I switched to conservative as the CPU govener
What version are you guys on?
What's your maximum clock speed?
Any modifications?

I've had awful battery life on every version I've tried, 4.3, 6.1.1, 7.2 & 8.1.1 The only mod I made to was changing the CPU governor. Tried several, SmartAss, SmartAss v2, Conservative off the top of my head. Could never get the battery to last more than 7 or 8 hours. And that was if I hardly used the phone.
I love the ROM but its completely impractical for me to use it the battery life is that poor. Using CM 7.2 I can get over 24 hours out of a charge depending how much I use the phone
Well I set up CM7 and ice cold using the same apps, kernel, clock speed and everything and got very similar battery life. Interesting.
Sent from my Incredible S using XDA
I'm going to give 8.2 a go over the next few days see if thats helps. I used to got a lot of random reboots on previous versions. Reading the change log it looks like those bugs have been resolved, maybe that is something to do with it
I am pretty much running it out of the box without any modifications. Thought asop roms would work better in terms of performance and battery life. Looks like I might have to ditch this for another rom

I think it was the .28M one when I did all this
But, I am having great battery life on ice cold 8.2 atm with the .11M radio everyone is complaining about
Weird. I have my phone undervolted at the moment though, but I have with most of the roms/kernels I have used
Sent from my Incredible S using XDA
We have this phone in our family, and have been waiting for ICS update. But the reviews are quite bad. Seems like the phones hardware isn´t good enough to handle ICS smoothly. A lot of reports about slow phone with a lot of lagging.
Maybe it works better with a rooted phone though.
When I was on ice cold battery life was excellent but after I backed up the Rom, tried a different rom, then restored the ice cold backup, battery life was terrible

I'm using nik project_x buddy always I use live wallpaper only battery life is pretty good try that Rom

GIVE WHAT YOU HAVE ON YOUR PHONE.
ROM,
KERNEL
WHATEVERS IN BOOTLOADER
ALL THAT STUFF.
You can always undervolt/under clock
But it might lead to instability

[Q] Battery temperature

Hey, greetings.
I just rooted my new HTC one like a month old and today received a call on it and gsam indicated that temperature of my phone is staggering 128℃. And the phone was super hot to hold.
Is this normal? If no, any help with resolving it? Thanks and regards

That's degrees Fahrenheit in the picture not Celsius, if it was, your phone would probably have liquified. But still 128F is like 53C which is very hot, and HTC specifications say the max design temperate is 55C.
Were you using Navigation? That's the only app that makes my phone so hot. Check for any rogue apps.
Sorry yeah, ℉.
I just made the call and it got really hot.

Sounds very strange, the only app I've seen that makes the phone so hot is Navigation, even games etc. that "strain" the CPU "only" get by phone up to 40~45C.
Should I try reflashing or use another rom? Any advice

If you have time, try flashing again (preferably with wipe), but there must be some app that's doing all this. I would "hunt" down for that first.
