Phone gets warm after update. - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello.
I was using evolution HD version 10.2 then 10.3 and every thing was fine until last night when I updated it to version 11.
Straight away i have noticed that the phone is getting very warm which didn't happened before.
It's getting warm even when browsing websites.
So first thing I did was to wipe my phone clean but that didn't help even though I haven't restored anything.
Next i tried installing different roms but heating problem didn't go away.
Can anyone tell me what the problem may be.?

Just tested it on Cyanogenmod and didn't noticed any heating up at all.
Can anyone provide a link to Revolution HD 10.3 as this was working perfectly fine on my phone.
I'm surprised I can't see anyone else complaining about heating up issue with version 11 in Evolution HD thread.

I think it's getting hot because maybe you did a lot of activity once you flashed the Rom...and were you charging your phone by any chance? This is a quad core phone and should get hot with high cpu usage

I know that the cpu can get hot when in use but that didn't happened before when browsin websites.
I was just comparing it with cyanogenmod going from one rom to another and back and with the same activity revolution hd 11 heats up my phone a lot lot more.
And no it wasn't plugged to a charger.

Lag/Stutter/whatever you want to call it ?

So why is it that even when I running a 1.3Ghz phone sometimes games like Dungeon Defenders run REALLY smooth and no issues, but then later I will try to play it and it will run like a bag of spanners, and is completely unplayable?
Rebooting phone often sorts this out, but why should I have to? The GPU has dedicated RAM, all unnecessary applications have been shut down, even put into flight mode.. and still it freezes for seconds (sometimes for a LONNGGGG time), and just generally stutters badly on the screen.
I thought maybe it was to do with the stock rom, but a factory reset proved that the stock rom is fine, but later it screws up. So I try the V20Q rebuilt rom, and stefans's gueste kernel and it still does it.
What is going on? Is the phone running out of resource? Is the second CPU not starting up? What is going on, and how can I find out?
Does it happen after at least 24h of runtime?
No. I've not measured it, but can happen within 8 hours I imagine. I have tried different batteries to rule out a voltage problem.
Is there a memory and dual CPU monitor tool I can use in the back ground to try and find out the problem.. or at least get a head start on the issue?
Oh forgot to mention, whilst it's lagging, even on the initial Dungeon Defenders start up screen... it's very unresponsive, and can take several seconds to identify I pressed something.

If you want a monitor tool, use system panel pro version.
However if the phone begins to be unresponsive after some time, it is because there is memory leak. It is a common problem in stock-based roms. ATM only reboot can solve this issue.
If you flash CM-based roms, the phone will be always smooth.
I did download system panel lite, but will grab 'pro' on Wednesday to help monitor the cpu usage (both cores) and free memory etc.
I actually like the stock V20Q rom... real shame :-(

wrong. It happens in CM roms too I have to reboot every day to avoid starting to experience lagginess which becomes unbearable on day 3
I will buy the system tool tomorrow and try and monitor what the heck is going on.
It should easily be running this program, there is no reason why it's performing so badly and causing the phone to be unresponsive.
Interesting... whilst running Antutu today, I only got 4900 to 5000 points @ 1.2Ghz. I can get about 7000 at this speed so I wondered what was going on. I checked out systempanel, and it appears to only be using 1 core. Hmm...
@-sandro-
What kernel do you use?
With ironkrnL 32 or 48 there is no lag. Not even after a week without switching the last reboot.
As per sig, using Stefan's gueste v1.1 kernel for stock rom's (V20Q).
(My setup is his kernel + the rebuilt V20Q italian rom from LG with the 'tweak' pack).
Is the ironKRNL compatible with V20Q stock?

You just have an unstable setup, I haven't rebooted in days and I'm running smooth

I could say my phone runs "smooth" but then I bench it (The bench will show bad results), or play a game and it can be a stuttery mess.

NEVER happened to me with CM7...it has an excellent memory management
Please, I don't want to discuss different ROM's. I would like help diagnosing the cause
I have now put on gueste v1.2 release candidate, and can see the 2nd core activating earlier. However, I'm still getting random results, and I can't say for sure whether or not the CPU 2 is activating as system panel isn't historically recording the CPU level of CPU 2 individually :-(
In Antutu.. you can see the FPS is down as well even after running a 2nd time. It's all very wierd. (I got 7250, then the next run I got 4900(ish) !)
EDIT: Upon testing, what I noticed the most was that CPU Floating point scores and 2D graphics were at least half of what they should be, whilst 3D score was barely affected at all. This to me points to an issue with the CPU side of things.

[Q] CM 11 official nightlies - wifi, battery and stability

Is anyone else experiencing similar issues with the latest official CM 11 (http://www.cmxlog.com/11/maserati/#)?
1. The biggest issue I have...Wifi doesn't switch to LTE when the phone is out of the wifi network range unless I manually turn off wifi. Is there a setting I could modify?
2. Battery drain seems higher than on the stock rom. Processes that use more than I remember are Android system and Android OS. I have BetterBatteryStats installed. Is there something I should look for?
3. There is more RAM available which makes the ROM seem more fluid than stock at times, but I experience an occasional freeze and reboot.
How is Stargo's CM ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2535705) different than the official ROM?
Because I have fewer than 10 post I was unable to post to the ROM section. I hope this is OK.
Stargos rom is much much better than the officals, wifi switches to lte just fine, good connection to mobile as well, don't have random reboots really. Only funny thing I get is xda vanishes every time I reboot or update the nightly

Ive had battery issues too with CM11. After charging all night and it showing 100% it dies with 4-5 hours with me not even on it. As of today i bought a replacement battery and installed it. It 2100mh battery than original 1785mh. I got for 20 bucks off E bay. Hopefully this well help my phone. I love my D4 and the CM 11 make it sweet. I report any new changes. I really hope it not CM 11 and wasn't the battery but after almost 2 1/2 years I think battery was going weak.
I've used Stargo's CM11 for a bit and it worked great switching between LTE and Wifi. The Battery life was pretty great too. I have not used the official CM11, but Stargo's is pretty solid.
I've been trying the SlimKat build out, but the latest install won't boot, so I may switch back to stock or Stargo.
The only issue I really had with Stargo's was I would have to get a separate MMS app to be able to get MMS messages as the APN did not work for MMS for some reason.
Question about Stargo's mod: If I'm running the CM11 Snapshot M1 build, can I flash Stargo's version right over top of that, or do I have to wipe my ROM slot and start from scratch?
I've been using Stargo's ROM for a couple of days now, and I like it very much. The thing that strikes me most is how FAST it is, significantly faster than CM 10.1 which I was using before. UI elements load faster, apps load faster, my phone is just generally snappier and more enjoyable to use. Battery life seems just slightly less good than CM 10.1 - I was at 50% by the end of the day, after moderate use. The only issues I've seen so far are with GPS and MMS - GPS seems to lose its fix every now and then... using the app GPS Essentials I'm seeing the satellite lock drop randomly after acquisition. It seems to bork up Google Maps navigation a little, but I haven't tested it extensively. Using Go SMS Pro I was unable to send MMS.
But these aren't really dealbreakers for me - other people can send MMS just fine, so there might just be something screwy with my phone.

[Q] Bad phone or Bad flash? Please tell me I've been doing everything wrong..

First off, an introduction. I seem to have bad luck with Android devices. Oh well, I love them anyway! Had a Galaxy S Captivate, Then a Tmobile Galaxy S 4G, and finally my N7000.
Problems have come with every device. The Captivate couldn't connect with Odin back in the day, so every flash was a dirty flash since I couldn't go stock. The Galaxy S 4G would constantly have problems. It was fine for awhile, but the ROMS never lasted. Always started to restart and glitch out. Random reboots, etc...
Now for my Note. It has been a great phone, despite a few drawbacks. It's over 2 years old; I purchased it right after they first came out. It worked great for about a year, even on custom roms. The last year, I've fallen way behind in the development area, but I've always ran custom. This whole year, I've been battling a couple huge issues. It started out as bad battery life. No big deal, I thought. Check stats, find the source, fix it. Then I try to flash a new rom. Still doesn't work. I end up living with the issue. That problem escalated into restarts, and even worse battery life. A flash or two later, and nothing worked better. Eventually, about half a year ago, I noticed my battery was started to swell. Thought that was the source of everything. I was wrong. New battery, and my phone is running just as bad, while getting steadily worse daily.
Presently, my phone is a mess. It's running ParanoidAndroid 4.3, BUT I am downloading the Team Asylum Kit Kat ROM right now as I type this. On PA, I have left the phone nearly completely stock since the flash. I followed the installation perfectly, even completely formatting both my internal and external SD cards to ensure a 100% new flash. Of course, it didn't help. Currently, my phone's battery won't last a day on light usage. 9 hours of life, and it will be to 5%. The last 30% of life drops EXTREMELY fast. When the phone was new, I would go 2 days on a charge easily. The source of this battery loss appears to be the infamous ANDROID OS, but I could never find the source, despite multiple apps trying to monitor my CPU and Batterystats. The phone runs Ok enough for daily use to the point where I have dealt with it. The phone will freeze completely every now and then, and a lot of the times it is on the lockscreen. On a complete freeze, it always results in a fast reboot after a minute or so. The last problem I can think of is my inability to read the external SD. A few weeks ago, my phone froze up completely, like normal, so I yanked the battery and rebooted. It started up as normal, but my external SD was nowhere to be found after that incident. No idea what happened, and I haven't had the time to try and get it working again.
Thank you to whoever took the time to read this. I'm sure some of my issues have already been covered in other threads, but I've tried things before and nothing seems to help. Maybe I just have a defective unit. It is getting old after all. I'd really appreciate anyone who might be able to help me resolve these issues. Getting this thing running smooth again would be like Christmas morning all over again.
QUICK SUMMARY FOR THOSE THAT DON'T WANT TO READ EVERYTHING
The phone is over two years old. Used to work good, now it doesn't.
-Replaced battery earlier this year since I noticed swelling in the original.
-Battery life is terrible. Dies after 9ish hours on LIGHT usage. ANDROID OS is the culprit. Used to last 2 days or more.
-Random restarts and lots of freezing.
-Freezing caused my external SD to completely disappear. Haven't been able to get access since.
-Running ParanoidAndroid 3.4. Flashing a new rom after I type this, but it probably won't change anything.
There's your short summary, although I may have already answered some of your suggestions up in my original post. If you can, at least read the second to last paragraph.
Again, thanks to anyone who can offer assistance! It would mean a lot to me since I feel like I still haven't gotten my money's worth out of this thing. Unlocked phones are spendy...
I would go back to stockbased custom roms 4.1.2 I found them very bettery friendly.

In my opinion you do something wrong. I tried several roms and never had strange battery or random reboot problems. Im now on AryaMod V4 and before SweetRom 10.5 and months before SlimBean 2.2 4.3.1 , all excellent Roms.

I've used SweetRom, ParanoidAndroid, Asylum, and Stunner, as well as many different versions of them all. They all worked great back in the day. I'd run them for long periods of time without any big issues. It's just lately, the problems are getting worse, and I don't see how I could be doing anything wrong with the installation.
Installed the latest 4.4.2 Asylum Omni last night. It's running really smooth so far. Other than having it fail to load the google startup thing on first boot, it has been working great. A restart fixed that, and nothing else has happened. Battery life is dropping pretty quickly however, but I need to run it through a few cycles to see how it works. I'm at 65% after 6.5 hours with light usage and 34min of screen on at max brightness. Screen is back on top of the list, as it should be, and is far exceeding Android system and OS, so I'm hoping it works better now. Time will have to tell on this ROM, but I'd still love to figure out why I've had so many problems with other flashes.

Hi everyone, pretty much my first post on here (second in all honesty) after reading hundreds of post into flashing/installing a custom ROM. I have always ran stock Samsung but with root, but I wanted more and I was fed up with Samsung and other rogue apps causing wakelocks (kind of became an OCD thing trying to get rid of them). Was determined not to ask for help with so many threads saying the same thing, so I just too the plunge and thought fk it yolo and flashed CM10 onto my device.
Didn't really have a clue what I was doing but got there eventually. Used CWM and downloaded what I thought was the only stable version of CM. I scared myself at first as it was just stuck on the CM boot, did a bit of reading and forgot to do the factory reset and wipe, did that and it all ran smoothly.
After spending hours of fiddling last night, I'm now wondering if it's worth getting CM 11 or should I stick to 10? I barely use anything complicated on my phone, solitaire is about the only game that I play, main thing is just battery life and phone functionality and internet browsing. Also are there any settings that I should be looking into?
I always ran one power guard with stock rom, but after installing it onto CM I found it was causing the phone to never enter deep sleep, uninstalled it and it's pretty good now, has anyone else experienced this? Does CM have pretty good built in battery management or should I look at getting some kind of task killer/battery management software? Couldn't risk leaving it unplugged last night to check battery as my gf needed the alarm for this morning and didn't want to risk it going flat in the night and getting an earfull from her
Thanks in advance for any tips/help.
First of all, you need to know what causes the battery drain in our smart phone no matter what ROM to are in.
They are mainly 3things. 1. Data usage, 2. Screen brightness and 3. GPS. So if you turn off data, turn the brightness down and turn off GPS. You will get pretty good battery performance in all Roms.

for the moment stay with stable CM10...in CM11 are a lot of bugs...today it's working nice...tomorrow it's unusable...
no need for 3rd party software for battery saving...all ROM's have ok battery life...but on stock is a noticeable difference.
Thanks for the replies. After leaving the phone idling for most of the morning I've noticed it's not sleeping. BBS is showing KWL is mdm_hsic_pm0
I've been trawling the net trying to figure out what it is, but everything I've read turns into a dead end. In the android battery stats it shows as Android OS. If i reboot the phone it seems to put it back in check, but obviously I don't want to be rebooting my phone all day!
Got very minimal apps running so it's really confuddling me.
Cheers in advance

HTC One m7 | CyanogenMod 12.1 Overheating and Battery Issues

Hello dear xda-Community,
I'm using my old HTC One m7 again (because why not ) and this time I tried out many CFWs. My favourite is as always CM using the latest SNAPSHOT version 12.1.
My Problem now is, that CM overheats very fast and some Battery Issues (Fast draining and spontaneous reboots under ~30%)
Overheats even if I'm just browsing the Interwebz
Battery drops from 100% to ~85% trough the night, with all Apps shut down
What I have tried to change in CM:
Changed permissions trough AppOps, so Keep Awake, GPS and Draw on Top was disabled in almost every App (Battery drains in night from 100% to ~95%).
Used Custom Kernels, where the AGK Kernel helped with the Overheating Problem, but still to hot!
I've even tried out to set the Kernel settings in AGK using CM as they were set in RevolutionHD CFW, with no success
In RevolutionHD 93 I can play Games, watch Videos, do everything I want, it runs like a charm.
Is there something I haven't tried out? Maybe a special version of CM, or an "secret/underground" Kernel? :fingers-crossed:
I hope you can help me, I hope I gave you enough informations AND I hope my english is not as bad as I think it is x)
ps. Always got things to work on my Android with YOUR help and this is my first time post made on xda
Hope you can help me this time,
Regards,
mrKacuklav
