Hi.My HTC 8x works fine and i consider that it's a great phone.Only proble is that when i play games (almost any games or apps) after about ~20-40 mins the phone gets incredibly hot on the back of the device and on the the screen (especialy the bottom part of screen)
Is this a device problem or a software problem (bad ported apps/games) ?
Please if anyone knows anything help me as soon as possible
P.S I sent once the device to the HTC service through my warranty and they checked the funcionality of the battery only and send it back to me telling me tha the battery is ok.
Any syggestion on what to do please?
Thanks in advance! :good:
i would keep the brightness low and turn off everything your not using like bluetooth and such also turn of battery saver. What games are you playing ? somethin intensive like nfs or like angry birds ?
try close all application while it is not use.
Enable Battery Saving it disables the internet conections, this way you can see if it's a backgroup app doing something.

Hi guys,
my phone is warming after a short time playing (angry birds, modern combat, or other games), or web browsing, or when I using a navigation app for a half an hour or more (igo or sygic aura). In this case I have to remove the battery because the phone is freezing and doesn't respond. I can feel a very hot area in the back, next to the camera led (I suppose the processor is there).
Does anybody else have a problem like this?
I have the v10a soft, I cannot upgade it because my phone can't find any update via pc suite or fota.
If I could find a solution for this and the video rating problem, it could be the best pfone for me
baseband: XMM6160
Kernel: 2.6.32
Build number: FRG83G
soft: v10a
Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad english
try to install a costum rom.maybe that will help you.i had the same problems with my phone..usually after i made a call.i sold that phone and bought another OB.
Isnt that normal for playing games? Mine gets hot too when playing angry bords but i thought thats normal as the cpu has to work more. The same when watching video

yep, but what about navigation? When I'm going to a long trip I can't use it becausse of freezing...
Most android devices have this prob. Maybe p970 has all plastic body so the heat can't be distributed well.

maybe, but I had a motorola defy before this (same os and nav. apps), and it was working well, without warming
I know that phone is much "stronger", but I think my Optimus warming is not acceptable. It is not just hot, it is freezing.

hehe, i understand what you mean but that's kind of a funny expression, hot and cold at the same time!
but i don't have that problem that apps freeze except on occasion the browser hangs when i'm on some websites with flash (flash is the root of all evil!) so it might be something wrong with your device.
My OB heats quite a lott when charging but oyjerwisr it is ok.
Have uou tried yo underclock with CPU utility?

Not too sure. I don't use navigation apps, but I do have a custom rom. It does feel a little warm after constantly playing Angry Birds, but not when I'm surfing the web (maybe coz I'm only using wifi?)
I am currently testing an LG OB P970, but I have an issue with it: the phone starts heating up and the battery is drained very fast. This is the typical scenario for my problem:
- if I use the WiFi or 2g/3g connection everything is ok
- when I make the first voice call: the phone starts heating up
- after I end the call: the phone remains warm long after the voice call was ended
- starting with the voice call initiation moment, the battery is draining very fast: 1% each minute in standby (while the phone is being charged!)
- battery temperature reaches 39-40 celsius (although the most warm area is NOT the battery but the upper part of the phone, right under the LG logo - probably the RF module is "guilty")
- I have to reboot the phone to stop this effect
- everything start over again if I make a voice call...
I must mention that this phone is a demo phone and that it was intended for testing purposes. I has a "not for sale" label printed on the body, under the back cover. The IMEI is something like 35xxxxx00000001. So it's no surprise that it has problems.
The phone came with the V10 firmware version. I've updated to this version:
- V20N_00 rooted version (upgraded from a rooted V10 by using CWM and NOT the official .kdz file since I was unable to root the official V20N_00)
- build number GRJ22
- baseband XMM6160
- android 2.3.4
- kernel 2.6.35
My mission is to determine if the heating issue is caused by a software
problem (solvable) or because of the 'probably' early hardware revision (NOT solvable).
I need answers to the following questions:
- is the firmware for the Radio module embedded in the main firmware of the phone?
- if the radio rom is not embedded in the main rom, then where can I find a software update for the Radio module?
thank you for your support
For me this looks like defective hardware. My OB gets hot only when I'm chargin from the socked and watch youtube - back of the phone gets very hot.
Yes, I have a confirmation that it is a hardware problem for the demo/sample phones. Now I'm running CM7 but I still have the same issue.
Well until recently i was using the stock kernel and stock ROM but after i got my OB rooted and got CM in it,it has started to heat after i play games(in 30 mins) or while browsing.

Defy really hot OB warm
My OB heats up to around 45 degrees Celsius but that's better than my Motorola Defy I had that would heat up to around 65 degrees celsius, go into emergency calls only, constantly freeze and restart from just browsing using cellular data.
what rom are you using?
Hello.
Had the same problem, and sent the phone to repair under warranty.
I'll be picking it tomorrow. I've been informed that a ribbon (screen connector maybe?) has been replaced inside the phone. I'll try to gather more info when picking it up and i'll know if this fixed the issue or not.

Hello again.
Well, the phone seems fixed, but...
After receiving it, the same problem was occurring and the call quality seemed worst with some "white noise" on the background.
Returned to shop, complained, they took the phone inside for half an hour and when they returned me the phone, claiming they had done nothing more, the white noise was gone and the phone never got over 30 degrees Celsius, even in long calls...
So i guess it really was an hardware issue.

it's normal on OB, try to free RAM on closing background running processes

this certainly isn't normal.
yes, battery gets warm while charging, expecially via usb. it also gets warm when wifi is active continously for a long time (like surfing an hour). warm = 40°C max. it gets really hot when charging with wifi active during standby (this requires a change in registry though, standard is wifi being disabled in standby).
but what you are describing (very hot, the activities you describe, empty in 10 minutes) isn't normal! sounds like a broken battery (hw-failure). have you tried flashing another rom?
You should see what kind of rom you are using cuz may be if it overclocks your CPU, this might cause heat ... so, try flashing another rom that doesn't overclock your CPU ... if not, then this might be a hardware problem ... I hope this helps, if not, I'm sorry ...
thanx for reply me dear.............
bt i have a another problem with this,
phone heating problem is over automatically. but with that microphone & primary (hearing when calling)speaker dosent work. bt front speaker works. mp3 & video sounds works. i reset my phone more times. but it wasnt ok. nw phone cannot make a call or hear a call because tha the both of them are i think burned.
I've not had that issue before .... I've the normal heating while charging only ... but I think you might want to flash another rom ... cuz this just seems to be too many problems and it might be cuz of the software ... so, try to flash another rom, if the problem presists ... then seek hardware help ... or I hope someone here may know the reason
thanx for reply me dear.............

I think these are too many problems you are having, so I would suggest a factory reset from the reset button under the battery cover or that you flash one of the roms on the site here ... It seems mostly software problems .... so, try flashing one of the roms ... I use 826X which doesn't overclock, so that might also help with ur overheating problem ... if flashing a new rom doesn't help, may be u should seek some hardware assistant but I think mostly it will solve it ... or factory reset might do the trick ... but this is as far as I know ... hope somebody who had the same problem may present a solution
yes i reset it many times. & im not overclocked it. is that my micriphone gone. there is something , if i unplugged my earphone that microphone icom shows on phone display. why is that. ithink it willbe a key point. bt mp3 playing is normal. audio qualitity is normal.
Hi guys, I've been using Android for some time now (2+ years) and i still don't get it why it is so hard to have a good memory management on this OS (i'm still on 2.3 variant so i haven't tried 4.0 yet).I mean why do i need to look for custom roms with different scripts, hacks, apps, etc. to play a game? Why do i need to freeze Manually apps or i need different stuff that require to give something up (more ram no more 720p filming or videos or what else)? I mean i want to play Fifa2012 it works for a while but then it moves in slow mo... ok let's try GTA III some lags hmmm NFS nope... ok maybe these are too much... i'll try Stardunk still lags, Touch pool 2d (something lighter) still some slow moving... Ok then i guess i'll play Solitaire(!) when the cards move automatically it lags FU..... it's so disappointing
Anyway, on a different subject: i have the opportunity to buy a used SGS1 for about $100 but the thing is that the guy says that while the phone was charging it shut off and doesn't start anymore but he says that when he connects it to his pc the "connected device sound " is played... he doesn't now about those technical moves like "Boot to recovery" or "Boot to download mode" so what do you guys think? if it gets into download mode could it be revived or i just should mind my business and not buy it?
Thanks
Hello. So I already made one thread but didn't get much of replies. If you own LG P920 or not you can still help. I have some questions and problems with phone If you could answer any of these please do it.
Questions: What is the best ROM for O3D. I never used any different roms than stock.
Does ROM make change in GPS accuraccy? (Accuraccy of my GPS is pretty bad sometimes.
Does Rom change the battery life? And If yes count battery life in question 1
In User manual it says you must use only official LG batteries otherwise the phone may explode. Is that true?
Is overclocking safe and does it have any downsides?
What is the difference between Mod and Rom?
Is There Any Way How To Change backlight brightness. It just wastes battery at night
Problems :
Bluetooth doesnt work. I tap it but nothing happens.
TTS doesnt work either .anytime Im trying to get in TTS settings I get a force close
My media volume keeps randomly going to one state. While Im listening to music or even when screen is off. Im using audioguru but in every profile is media volume set to 0.
Phone reboots after turning on Wi-Fi. It works First time after reboot but when I turn it off and then on it reboots.
CPUs second core seems to be offline all the time. I'll post photo taken right after playing a game while CPU is set on 1 ghz . Sometimes I hear something from back of a phone when playing games but Im not sure if Thats it. I dont often get lags when playing games like asphalt 6 so i dont really know.
Another Problem is what I already mentioned. eXtreme battery drain. 2-5 hours depends if im browsing and watching videos or my phone just sits in pocket.
And The last thing not that big deal is that norton antivirus is showing that location service or whatever it is has a malware in it (I 'll post photo)
If you could Answer any of these please do it. Thanks . Sorry for bad english

Ever since I upgraded my android version to 10 on Asus rog 2 tencent phone I have this issue. When playing games launched via game genie like pubg or mobile legends..no one can hear me. But I can hear them all loud and clear. Both on external speakers and Bluetooth headset.
When I remove the games from game genie and launch them separately the problem is solved. However air triggers won't work without game genie. Any suggestions are appreciated.
I can't help to solve ur problem, but i posted it on reddit that i have after upgrade (clean installation) Android 10 problems with gaming at all
I dunno about that overheating, playing on max settings and have about 40 C, which is normal i suppose. But since i updated (and later i installed clean raw Android10 system) i have all the time soon or later crashes.... Damn this is driving me nuts, like gaming phone and games keep crashing? Tested on:
Tales of Wind - MMORPG - screen starts flickering, insane drop fps and if u go to "desktop" and back, screen is black, even sounds from game is coming out. If i stay in game and don't go to desktop game crashes itself after a while...
CoD Mobile - MP seems ok (hours without problem), but when i log in to Battle Royal game gets the very same symptoms as in a game above
Grimvalor - SinglePlayer RPG - same as above
All of these games were tested with xMode on and on max setting. Didn't try games too long without xMode, so i can't confirm, that xMode causes this issue....
It's very annoying and thinking to go back on the latest A9... Wanted to try Lineage, but vibrator motors are not working and mainly Air Triggers, so forme it's big no no
Edit:// it seems that xMode or Genie has problems with compatibility with Android 10, so my only advice is to go back on the latest Android 9
i have the same issue with my rog phone 2 , but my mic doesnt work ingame like pubg or call of duty mobile, not even if i remove it from game genie, i changed from CN to ww once according to a tutorial and when i rooted the phone and there was a file that u have to delete to the get old theme running in the tutorial after rooting ,ever since i couldnt get the mic to work i went back to CN rom and got back to ww its all the same
if i tap hard on the phone sides i can see the mic working but not when i talk .... other apps like phone or viber messenger whatsapp they all are working except for games
i have to use headphones with wires to make it working , and ya same issue i have apple air pods 2 pro and their mic not working in pubg either .... anyone can fix this ? i will be very thankful
Can you help me
I am also facing the same problem..
Can you please tell me what you did,if your problem is solved....

The problem still persists. Wired headsets are working. It's only the external microphone and Bluetooth headset. I am not sure if other brand Bluetooth headsets work. Hope fully pubg will fix this
I have the same issue does anybody know what to do?
Same issue after updating to andriod 10 can't use mic or speakers in pubg. Please help
Hey guys same problem here anyone got any solution untill now ?
try downgrading then if you don't need android 10
orr try some terminal stuff to force on the mic? i'm not experienced enough
Idk I tried alot uninstalling updates on game genie and all the settings and permissions. Downgrading seems like a tough job isnthat easy to do ?
you would probably need to unlock the bootloader and flash it
