New HTC One Cores 1, 2, 3 always offline - Sprint HTC One (M7)

I recently had my HTC One replaced due to a bad microphone. After rooting/ s-off'ing and installing elemental x 0.6 and Tranquil rom (same stuff I was running on my old phone) I noticed it was pretty sluggish. So I ran a antutu test and I only got a score of 12k. So I went in trickster mod and ran again in performance mode to get a score of only 16k. Checked usage history and from the look of things only core 0 is running at any time. Core's 1, 2, and 3 are always offline. I wiped and re-installed everything and I'm still getting the same thing. Is it possible to have a hardware malfunction where only one core is working?

Try it with stock firmware and software, then you'll know if the problem is hardware related - which I wouldn't believe it is. It's possible, but unlikely.

Maybe the kernel has a power saving mod.
Try RUU and see if all 4 cores work. I'm pretty sure there are some kernels out there that are supposed to do what you describe as a problem.

Ill mess with RUU over the weekend, in the process of moving so don't want to get that deep. It's odd because this is the same exact kerne/rom and settings as my original One and it never did this.

Nexus One charging at 106F ~Froyo

my nexus one is charging on a regular basis around 106-7 F. I know there is another thread about this issue but the question was not resolved. So does anyone have experience with this issue. Is it a defect or dangerous? I have OSmonitor installed, this si where I am reading my temps. I also notice the CPU usage is pegged around 98-99%..is this normal?
I heard using setCPU with a charging profile can solve this problem if you have root?
No, it is not normal for the cpu to be maxed out while charging. Are you using the car dock or a wall charger?
nexous one
mine does the same thing all the time its not going to damage your phone at all
my phone has got about 120 F on car doc
my phone is perfect just set your set cpu for fail safe and your all good
You probably could use SetCPU to solve this problem, but the fact that your CPU usage is so high in the first place means there is something going wrong - my guess would be a rogue app.
Try downloading a task killer from the Market. Kill each app running one at a time then check your CPU usage. You'll soon find the culprit.

Yeah I'm starting to see the problem with the phone having a metal casing. Not good when it's summer and you have to place it under direct sunlight for extended amounts of time, while using navigation AND charging
That thing can get burning hot alright.
Are you using froyo 2.2?
I have had the same problem; I also have random periods of high cpu use when not charging as well. This issue is not caused by problem apps either. I must reboot to fix the issue, sometimes I must reboot several times until the cpu load is back to normal.
I am not sure it is a bug or a hardware fault. Maybe a quick call to HTC and/or google is in order.
I will also try to reapply the 2.2 update.

Been there, done that. I opened a thread asking other users about the problem, and even mailed HTC's support. In the end I decided to try flashing the stock 2.1 rom again to see if the problem persisted, and it didn't.
I'm pretty sure it's not a hardware problem, but you might want to install eclair too and see if it works for you.

I bet your heat issues are related to cpu loads or staying at high frequencies like mine. Sometimes the phone does not feel like it is really running as hard as the system monitors say, though it may still get hot.
Where can I find the older ROM? I thought the bootloader would not allow going to older ROMs, or maybe I am mistaken.
I am re-flashing the leaked 2.2 update to make sure there was no issue with the original install. I am also using the copy my GF downloaded when I sent her the instructions on the off chance that my download was corrupted in some small way; unlikely but hey. I do think that the original flash may have gone wrong, as mine hung and never rebooted after the flash was complete; I had to manually reboot. Lets hope this fixes it.
This issue may be more widespread than we realize, as many people do not actively monitor their cpu or notice/worry about the heat after charging. I do believe that these leaked ROMs send debug data to google, I remember reading something along those lines; these are internal test ROMs after all. Maybe this is a reason that 2.2 is not out yet, this and other bugs found during real world use.

What I did was follow this guide up to the point where you have a stock eclair rom, then not upgrade to Froyo. Keep using that for some time, see whether the phone gets hot or not, THEN (if you want) move back to Froyo.
I am using the wall charger hat came with the nexus one. I am also running Froyo 2.2... can I set a CPU fail safe without my phone being rooted? Also what is a quick to check if my phone is rooted? I just bought this Nexus One from someone. I know on my G1 it was rooted bc I had Superuser permissions.
Using OSmonitor I can sort the processes by their CPU load and the one process that always has the highest load is " /init" which always has around 85-96% of the load. You can also kill these processes directly inside of OSmonitor and I have tried killing " /init" to no avail.
The fastest way I can think would be installing Lamppu, then trying to use it to light up the camera flash. If it works your phone is flashed, if it doesn't it's not.
As for your other questions... sorry, i don't know. I hope someone else can help you.

Thats a system process so you can not kill it.
Going to test my GFs nexus and see if she has these issues as well.
I restored my N1 to the factory image, the updated back through each update to 2.2; so far so good. My GF's N1 has been running fine since I really started watching it, so I figured it would hurt to try to restore and redo the update.
No 100% cpu load during charging any more!
i am using the Motorola charger and my phone is not getting hot at all. with the charger that comes in the box for the N1 it seems to heat up.
Still had the CPU load get stuck at 100% today; though charging is not forcing 100% loads any more.
By the way, how do you measure how busy the processor is? How do you know that it's at 100%?

System monitor apps, some will even put a little icon in the notification tray that shows current cpu load.

[Q] Is it possible that my D3 has a problem that prevents running other roms?

I'm running SS 3.05 and have been able to flash several roms (all GB because I need a camera) that others rave about. I have not gotten good performance out of any of them. The worst ones seem to cause almost non-stop force closes on apps while the "best" ones function but my phone runs very hot even when not being used. Just tried Steel Droid 5 over the weekend and I at least got it up and running but the phone was noticeably hot even when just sitting on the counter with the screen off.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled Safestrap a couple of times, deleted and recreated rom slots repeatedly and have just had no success. Is it possible that there is something weird about my phone? Is it just wonky? It does run normally on the stock rom, or at least as normally as any D3 can run but I'd love to run a meaner, leaner rom on my phone.
If anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear them.

Weird. Minimoto ran great for me. I wonder if it's an app you install?
Maybe you just have a bad app or two. You can try loading the phone stock and install only an app or two at a time and see if the phone runs better. Maybe after loading one particular set of apps you'll notice a problem.
I run minimoto as well. I don't get the miracle battery savings that others report - mine is essentially the same as running stock for me - but it is rock-solid stable, unlike stock, which tends to go wonky on me after about 5 days or so.

I have noticed something like that, I´m on XT862 and I have better baterry performance on Steeldroid 5.0 and If I give a try with Minimoto I have noticed higher battery drain and hot back of my device. So I always went back to SD 5.0. Strange that people have different experiences =).

Would a app that tracks battery usage by app possibly give me that info as well? Slowly adding apps one at a time will be a major chore...

[Q] Input / Scrolling Lag on Samsung ROMs

Howdy,
My T-Mobile Note 4 hangs for about 2 seconds every few seconds while typing and scrolling. The text catches up after the hanging.
I have tried several different Samsung-based ROMs and they all exhibit this issue.
CyanogenMod does not exhibit this issue and runs very smoothly.
I'd leave it at that, except I do like to use the Gear VR.
Curiously, some ROMs like TekXODUS run great until after the first reboot, and then the problem returns. I've tried a few different kernels, just to see what happens, and there doesn't seem to be an impact.
I noticed on this last ROM flash the fingerprint scanner registration works on first boot but not after reboot (I get the "try rebooting" error), but I'm not sure if that could be related.
Can anyone help me understand:
What tools I have available to troubleshoot this?
How to tell what updated or changed after first reboot?
Or guide me in any way? It's driving me nuts.
Some supplmental information:
I cannot be sure exactly what model this phone is, since I bought it off Craigslist and the sticker on the back is gone. (Dumb I know, I only thought to check the IMEI through the menu)
It reports as a N910T with a valid IMEI but this whole thing has me wondering. Any help in determining what this thing actually is would be helpful as well.
Thank you!

Its all about the kernal. And setting it up properlly. Using a controller such as synapse or kernal aduitor. And setting up the kernal. Uping the cpu minimum threshold and using a cpu gov..
I must say your lucky in your purchase and finding out that the device is a T..
Flashing the wrong kern on a device can produce unwanted results..
I suggest Ael. Or emotion kern. And follow the op as to settings and speed and battery life..
Rom choice is crucial as well. Im running darth staker COD6 atm with a custom kern overclocked at 2688 and there is no lag...[emoji16]

My Nexus 6 Is Terribly Slow

Couple couple of things here:
1) I bought a nexus 6 from the Google Play store. I got a few updates since then and also rooted the phone. What I did not notice is the build number. The build number on my phone is: LYZ82J. I searched and found that this is a T-Mobile build. This is really strange because this is not a t-mobile phone. Although my carrier IS T-mobile.
2) The reason why I noticed the build number is this: I wanted to disable the forced encryption. My nexus is running EXTREMELY slow! Its just lags after lags. And I figured maybe disabling the encryption might help.
3) I tried everything to speed up the phone. At this exact moment I have 54.64GB of storage and 1.8 GB of ram Free on my device. I have uninstalled all of the third party apps that run on background, such as Facebook. Other than the root, everything else is completely stock on this phone. I do not have anything running in the background for things like Tasks, Launcher, Gestures, etc.
4) I ran a test on Geekbench 3. Every app was closed. And no third party app was running in the background and I got 774 for single core.
Questions:
1) Why do I have T-Mobile's build on my phone. And is this the reason that the phone is slow.
2) Why is my Pure Stock Nexus 6 so slow.
3) Can I download a factory image from Google's Website and Flash a Different build number on my phone?
3) If not, how can I disable encryption. And will it help speed up my phone?
Thank you so much for your answers in advance.
Mine also has random slow downs. I can't stand it, there's no way such a powerful device should stutter from time to time. I'm running the M3 preview, rooted, i don't think i'm encrypted.

1. I don't know the logic behind the updates, but since your on t-mobile, the updates appear to pull toward your carrier. Doesn't seem to matter that you have non branded.
2. I have always found stock to be much slower than roms. I know it's a pain, but it does help to wipe the phone from time to time.
3. Yes
4. You have use a kernel that doesn't force encrypt, and do a complete wipe to get rid of the current encryption. i dont believe it will speed up the phone to any noticeable amount.
My suggestion would be to go with a well made ROM (there are plenty).
I suggest Pure nexus ROM with hells kernel.
It will give you a stockish feel without all the stock lag.
My geekbench below, running pure and hells.
OTA builds are decided by your sim. T-Mobile sim get T-Mobile build.
Geekbench score running JDX 3.0.4. http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/development/rom-jdx-1-0-t3121053
im glad that i was off today, from both work and xda. otherwise, id explain about whatever you ask..
I get a pretty good score running stock and always have. Maybe try reflashing a factory image and start over?

I'm completely stock by manually flashing the image files one by one from the Google factory images page. No custom kernel or CPU tweaking. I did root and decrypt using WugFresh NRT.
EDIT: I guess decryption requires a custom kernel technically...
Always remember, those benchmarks mean nothing. the benchmark scores can easily be manipulated by the software optimization and a little system tweaks. A phone with 4 cores can get a higher score than a phone with 6 cores thanks to the system tweaks (in android particularly done in build.prop) and better software optimization. So for me benchmarks are nothing more than a little estimate and their value doesn't mean anything in the practical world.
And if you want to keep your phone upto date without any issues,you should download the nexus 6 toolkit, its the best thing to restore your phone whenever it gets bricked. It's a simple click procedure with one click rooting to boot loader unlocking, try it.

Mine slows to a crawl from time to time, event the soft buttons not responding to touch for several seconds. The boot animation is similarly slow.
It's always been like this as far as I can remember. I am running CM 12.1 nightlies, encrypted.
I guess it depends on your definition of slow. I am just running plain Old stock rooted 5.1.1 encrypted and my device is fast and smooth.
I would suggest wiping the phone and starting over from stock.
Yeah I would wipe and start from scratch. In addition, I would force fstrim on /data and fsck /data /system and/cache.

I never notice any lag on my nexus 6, its stock on page plus. I have no issues with this phone at all. My moto x pure that I had was a laggy turd, I traded it for a nexus 6
I bought my N6 about a month ago, it was running 5.0.1 during the setup it went through 6 updates until it was on 5.1.1 and build was LMY48M and it's lightning fast. I'm also on Fi network with no problems. Maybe your sim card is bad or carrier is slow. You might want to flash the latest build and a new sim.
Good Luck

Removing encryption will definitely speed up your phone without reducing battery performance (maybe even improving it).
I'm using N6Shamu Rom with LeanKernel and find a nice balance of performance and battery life.
If you just want performance try Pure Nexus Rom
My Nexus 6 slows down a lot also. I ran geekbench 3 and was getting 700s for single core, well below avg.
This seems to happen after getting a bit warm. If I run geekbench about 2-3 times, the phone starts slowing down a lot. I'm thinking I have a hardware issue.
But other times the phone is buttery smooth as are high demanding games. Who knows.

CPU small cores do not stop, big cores not working

So, my issue is as the title shows.
The A53 cores do not stop, and A57 cores only work like 0-1 core at a time, usually doing nothing.
Which causes my phone to be heating up whenever it isn't sleeping, sometimes drains battery even when charging at 2A.
I'm using E6533(dual sim version), and it happened when I updated my phone to 7.1.1(32.4.A.0.160) from 7.0.0(32.3.A.2.33) firmware with flashtool.
Yes, I've rooted my phone, but just for removing shutter sounds.
I tried to rollback to my TWRP backup, factory reset, rollback to 32.2.A.0.305, using custom ROM(lineage), quite everything I know, but nothing worked.
Does anyone have a clue of what might be the problem, and what might work?
Thank you.

Well, if that's normal, this shouldn't be an issue. Though I do wonder where's the big little concept gone.
Did it ever occur to you guys that it might be dynamic hotplugging and a specific configuration/setup is being used ?
Or is it in your case really being buggy and broken ?
You left something working in the background and monitored how the cores behaved ?
Using different apps ? (say: kernel adiutor [or kernel adiutor mod], EX Kernel Manager, CPU Z, etc.)
My situation has improved, so I'll update my situation, hopefully it'll help someone.
After updating to stock 7.1.1(without modifications), my phone got just very hot while the screen was on., consuming more than 2A.
Rolling back did solve the problem(becomes normal heat), but as for me, I chose to use lineage OS, which was great. The only drawback I'm having now is that the camera button's function isn't as versatile as the stock ROM, especially while opening the camera app from sleep state, is a bit unstable.
A great thanks for all of you guys for giving me advices.
