is anybody else noticing their diamond gets very hot below the battery? doesnt seem right....
if im using the phone or talking for more than 10mins i find my phone is gettgn really hot. just wondering if i got a faulty phone or there is a fix for this?
yeah, happens to me too
it's when it's under heavy load like movies/talking/internet
apparently it has got to do with the build of the diamond...
plastic cover also plays a part.. poor heat ventilation..
on a personal note.. it does get hotter with wifi on.. other than that my diamond is pretty much "cool"

ROM
It depends your ROM version. I've read somewere that pre-european ROM version cause very high Temp. If your Diamond is an Asia version, try to update it...

Htc touch diamond - hot
I change my ROM into the original from HTC.COM and the problem is solved.
Hello folks,
I find myself wondering if I've got something going on with my phone or if it is just me. I find that the device gets very hot with little usage. I find it hot by the camera/led, but it's definitely hot throughout. I know it's not easy to confirm if it is, as there are variables. But if anyone has noticed it, it would help me with my decision to return it for a new device.
Insight from other owners would be great! Thanks!
I've got the ATIV S too, mine doesn't get hot at all.
I used to have the Samsung Focus, and that one did get hot by the camera when playing games, and it would occasionally reboot if it got too hot.
I do the exact same things on my ATIV S now and it doesn't even get warm.

I can confirm that - a friend of mine bought (i intend to buy one for me in the days to come) an ATIV S, and in certain cases it really gets hot in the zone just beneath the camera/LED. I don't think it's going to be a showstopper problem, but still we could say it's rather design flaw, then a real showstopper problem. but one thing is almost 100% certain - it's not a certain unit (yours in that case) problem. I suspect the plastics is not spreading the heat well enough as it was with the aluminum Omnia 7 for an example. Still - Quallcom's processors are known for years, that are always hotter than the equivalent ARM chip. I guess it's a matter of perspective - if it's a problem for you, and you can return/replace it - do it. If it's not such big of a deal - just enjoy your new phone

Getting hot - software issue
Hey guys,
I discovered that in my ativ s, with gdr3 preview for developers that it gets crazy hot only when screen rotation is turned on.
So I turned it off and no problem now.
Please let me know if you have the same issue.
cheers
Mine gets somewhat hot when I play games, which is normal.
I have read a lot of reviews and forums where users posted the heating issue that Xiaomi Mi5 is so prone to. Rumours says that it can be fixed with a software update, but is this true? I am planning to buy the phone, but this is holding me back currently. Any advice?
UK owner here.
Mine seems okay, I have no issues with heat with the 32GB version.
Playing Pokemon go in 30c heat in direct sunlight overheats of course and it throttles, but it doesn't feel hot to hold.
Think it is rom/software issue. Mine runs extremely hot running Cyanogenmod13. Just came home from a week in Malta, and I struggled to use the phone.... Considering switching back to Miui rom
No heating issues...

no heating issue but network issue no incoming call when 4g on use.
Phone works noticeably slower in a hot temp. In UK we had a heatwave... and i notice slower processing.

Could you guys mention the MIUI version or the custom rom? Because I think heating issues on the MI5 is a software problem.
So my MI5 gets a little bit hot after some browsing but overall I wouldn't describe it as a heating issue. I'm running MIUI 7 global - 6.5.30.
Sorry. Completely forgot. Miui 8. China dev 6.7.10

Hello everyone!
Background (less important): So, I've been looking at getting a Oneplus phone for a while but when my last 2 phones died back to back, I got an S6 from insurance. Problem with the S6 being just about everything (no SD card expansion, no removable battery, no rooting abilities, etc). I've been keeping an eye out for the right time to get a new device and, now that my device memory is full, I'm looking at a new phone.
I was looking at picking up either the S7 or the Oneplus 3T. The S7 is under $500 on amazon, which is pretty surprising (thought it would be much more expensive), has expandable SD card support, pretty good battery, good camera, lots of RAM, etc and they just got the ability to root. It also has some cool options like medical sensor stuff, etc (not all that important, just extra bells and whistles).
However, the 3T appears to have a very active rooting/mods community, and overall, many people have said this is the best phone they've ever had so I'm leaning towards picking that up. The only downsides I've seen/heard are the camera on the 3T isn't as good (definitely not the end of the world, it's still an upgrade from my S6) and I've seen a number of battery drain threads and that genuinely concerns me. I understand that those with the issue are likely going to be a lot more vocal than those that have everything working but I was hoping to gauge how much of a concern this really is and if anyone has determined the cause of the battery drain and if there's a solution. What I don't want to do is get a developer friendly phone that dies super quick (I understand it charges fast too but I don;t want to rely on that).
Anyway, this is kind of an important decision for me as my goal is to keep a phone for 3 years so I'm looking for a phone that is pretty well future proof (for a while, I know 3 years is a long time in the technology field) and I don't want to "settle" for a phone that's going to give me nothing but headaches.
If you guys could help me understand how big of a deal the battery drain is, it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Okay here's the deal. You're posting in the Oneplus 3T forum and people are clearly going to be biased, you're lucky I'm coming from a Galaxy Note 7 and my girlfriend has an S7 Edge.
The experience you're going to get with a Samsung is far richer in features and the camera is superior. The phone just yells premium out of it's every part. The microphone will record your voice better as well.
However, if you're looking for a future proof phone the Oneplus 3T is clearly a winner. People are crying about drain and SoT simply because they're more pretentious and pay more attention to details than Samsung users. All Android phones have some sort of drain and with time, stock ROMs get more laggy and battery consuming. The advantage you have on oneplus is that you can apply all sorts of custom ROMs, kernels and mods to squeeze out the most of your battery, while on Samsung you're more prone of getting stuck with drain sooner or later.
Here's where OP3T's top card comes, dash charge is amazing. At this point I don't even care about SoT since I can charge my phone to 60% in 30m. I'm getting 4-5 hours of SoT without tweaks and 4G always on data using stock ROM. Who even wants to stick their eyes in the phone screen for more than that?
You can't go wrong with the OP3T unless you're willing to wait for the next oneplus.
Bottom line, the drain people have been experiencing on OxygenOS 4.0.3 is of little concern, especially since it's improves with Beta 12 7.1.1. Stop overthinking and get the phone you like.

So just to be clear, you're saying that the battery drain people are experiencing is likely related to a version/rom/etc that they are using and they're too lazy to try different things to try and optimize it but even if I am that lazy, the dash charge still works well enough that it shouldn't be an issue for most people (assuming you're near a charging socket), is that a pretty good synopsis?
Just want to understand if you believe the issue is user error (not using the right software components/settings), user pickiness (IE they're perceiving a problem that's not really there) or if there are the occasional phone that experiences battery issues but it's a very small number.

I think that that's what he wants to tell you. To myself : I have the 3T since yesterday and since I'm coming from a M8 it's a huge upgrade for me. But for your comparison : my brother has the S7 and plenty of my friends have the S7E. S7E is in my opinion a superior phone in terms of camera, mic, display, waterproof .. etc. All the things that make the S7/E more superior is only because Sammy has done a better job, BUT what they didn't was to make the phone future proof. The thing with OP3T is that it also does/contains all of the superior things, it's just not that good. The camera is fine for me, I don't care about waterproofness, a 2K display is nice but you won't notice the difference anyway except for the brightness if you compare them both side by side. I'm pretty sure I've made my point.
Now for the 3T's battery drain : I was still on OxygenOS 3.5.4 because I didn't felt the urge to update. Woke up at 7 AM and plugged it out, somewhere between 10 - 11 AM I was on something like 27 percent. It was somehow strange but ok. Now that I couldn't resist to flash CM13 I've noticed a HUGE difference. I flashed CM13 at around 5 PM while I was charging it (was at 90% at 5PM) and now after 4h of using it I'm at 68%. Huge differnce no doubt and I'm staying at CM13.
Hope I could help you

Thanks for the advice, particularly about the future proofing. I honestly don't get why Samsung hasn't moved to a USB C connector yet . . . Seems like a no brainer, that's clearly the direction everything is heading.

Yeah, that's my opinion based on experience as a former Oneplus One, Samsung Galaxy Note 7 and current Oneplus 3T user. People mostly started complaining about drain with OOS4.0.3 (latest current stock) and it will definitely be fixed with OOS nougat 7.1.1. This "battery drain" stigma that you're currently placing on the OP3T has been placed on all major flagships at some point. I can't be certain how well this device will be officially updated in the future, or how the battery will hold up after many many cycles, but i can assure you it will hold up better than an S7.

They did have USB-C on the Note 7. At the point of S7 launch it wasn't that widespread.

I'm actually really glad you mentioned that because, you're right, I have definitely experienced various stages of battery drain between updates on Samsung devices except I didn't get to choose when or if I wanted to update with those. At least I'll now be in control of those things! Made up my mind, ordering the Oneplus 3T now! Thanks!

I am certain you won't regret getting this device. Let me know if you need any help or have any more questions via PM.
6-7 hour of sot per charge every 22-28 hours.
technology is weird. people can get battery drains for all kinds of reasons. google services may be a reason. or some wakelock by some random app that never was a problem, but after installing it on a certain rom on a certain phone it suddenly is a problem. and weirdly enough you are the only one experiencing it. it might be something with the rom where a factory reset may help. some people go ahead and flash another rom and then it is gone. sometimes they make the wrong conclusion that it is the roms fault. or the kernels or whatever. it happens on every phone. just go to a random phones forum and you will find threads with people complaining about battery drain. and they will be the only ones with this particular issue. the vast majority of users does not have such issues. if they do you will find out about it soon enough and after some time there will be an update that fixes it.
my sot is around 5 hours depending on what i do. using media like movies gives you more screen time, heavy gaming gives you less screen time.
Hello,
since 4 days I am a proud owner of a Huawei P10. Berfore that I had a HTC One M9, which did good work for me, except two repairs, but due to a new mobile contract I got the P10 now.
Yesterday I was on my way with my bike, using the App Komoot with my phone inside THIS (not sure if available in other languages than german) waterproof bike case. I had my M9 with a cover case around it, in there often and everything was fine too.
But as I came back from my bike ride yesterday I wanted to take the P10 out of the bike case and as I touched it I almost let it fall down because it was so damn hot.
I managed to start CPU-Z on it and it showed a value of 65-70°C (at soc_thermal) A few minutes later it was on a normal temperature again.
Today it tested it again using the Multiview-App-Thing with Komoot and CPU-Z simultaneously and it reached a maximum of 61,9°C (Screenshots attached)
I'm not really sure what causes it to get so hot. It could be the phone itself or the app or the direct sunlight hitting the phone in the closed case.
Is it normal that it gets so hot? Or better, does it damage the phone in any way?
When the camera or navigation are turned on, P10 will be hot, and if it is turned off, it will return to normal .
But is it normal that it gets so hot I can't touch it anymore for some minutes? I mean My HTC One M9 only got that hot when doing a NAndroid Backup
P10 gets very hot, my old Mate 8 never heats up like P10 even when using GPS and camera...

Hi guys, I got one step further from what you all mentioned. I took it the day before yesterday to a official service and reported that issue. When I'm taking a photo, and I as many bought this phone especially because of camera, the phone gets so hot it's like 40 degrees Celsius. They tasted the phone and told me nothing is wrong, it works in a proper way and no, you can't use a premium guarantee. So, I think I'll sell it in a near future.
Same here - when taking photos or videos for a bit longer time, it gets noticeably hot. Summer is on the doorstep, so I will try to test if the phone shuts down at all or keeps functioning normal. If it shuts down - will bug the seller with warranty.
