General Warning: Overheating! - XPERIA X10 General

Just a warning to all using the FreeX10/other 2.2+ performance ROMs that I experienced is the overheating of the device. This may only be me, but I'm posting this just in case.
Quick details of my X10:
Flashed to FreeX10 Beta #4 last night.
Used SetCPU to set scaling to Performance and minimum clock speed @ 998MHz.
Using the 3G (build.prop) enhancement modification.
I have a rubber casing around the phone.
Usually connected to WiFi.
My phone has been on since last night and has been charging for most of the time since then and now.
Just then, I decided to turn my phone off a couple of times. I did not notice the heat from just holding it. I was browsing here and read a thread about removing the battery, so I just did that for some reason. It wasn't until I opened the case when I could smell the smell of melted/hot plastic - it was coming from the battery. I immediately placed the open-phone and the battery in front of a cool fan, the battery and phone both started to cool down and the smell disappeared. I couldn't find any liquid/melted plastics anywhere on/in the phone, but I could definitely smell it.
Just a general friendly warning (that can't hurt). Not sure if it's documented or not, and whether this is only Froyo or below/above.

Used SetCPU to set scaling to Performance and minimum clock speed @ 998MHz.

what's the point?! if it is to overheat your x10, mission complete

Why using setcpu? I use the same rom and it runs like hell without setcpu. No overheating neither...

nytral is right. You set the CPU to run @998Hmz at _all time_ so it'[s only natural that the device/battery overheated.

u have managed to make a perfect guide on how to overheat the phone...
u push all the components to their max working capacity (full cpu, 'enhancement' of radio) and on top of that u keep it enclosed in a rubber casing...
bravo!!!

Sorry, Min is 245. Not 998.. :-/
And I'm pretty sure the material of the casing (rubber vs hard plastic) wouldn't matter, but would contribute to the heating. I'm sure that a lot of people would use a case of some sort to protect their device.
The only reason why I started this thread is because I was on a ROM not too long ago (a couple of nights ago), which has exactly the same settings and modifications, except, it wasn't running Froyo - it was running Eclair. And since I installed that Eclair ROM, the phone has only been turned off once (with the battery removed, about a couple of days after installing it and it being on and charging pretty much 24/7) and has been charging pretty much non stop.
The only difference is it is using Froyo instead of Eclair... Hence why I thought it'd be best to start this thread.

LOL, now this is n1 example of a person who didnt read before he flashed
Solution dont whipe data...

lol nice overheat guide
i'm using setcpu to scale it to powersafe and max @512 Hz
and when the screen is off it's max is set to the lowest (256?)
and when i wanna play games i always set it to min 256(?) and may 998 ans performance
then my battery won't drain so fast

nice overheating guidelines

Do you guys actually see a difference with setcpu? I have used every option available and nothing ever got slower or faster for me.

Yeah I'm running 2.2.1 and my X10 is no where near hot. well, at least in temperature because its a hot-sexy phone ;P
Nice overclocking there though X10 watercooling systems now in development, expect another forum branch to open in XDA in the next coming weeks.

To my understanding the 2.6.29 doesn't support overclocking so setcpu shouldn't make a difference at all. The rubber case probably contributed to the heat retention but the heat likely is from the constant charging.

Try the JuiceDefender app and set it to turn off wifi and data when your screen is off or unless certain apps are visible, helps with battery and stops unused functions while your phone sleeps.

Phone doesnt overheat, if you use it right.

Useless topic!!
Sounds like a guy (not saying names) that Z tells to remove some files from "some" roms he was taking without permission, just trying to desestimate Z rom.
Beta 4 runs very well, theres no overheat.
Sorry for my bad english!!

I have installed cm6.1. 3 v4. 3, its a fab rom.... but charging is the main prob... even if i charge for 2 hrs continues it charges upto just 60% and it becomes very hot..... any solution for this......

Try charging the phone while its off. Ive heard people say that their phone wouldnt charge past a certain point but after charging it whilst off it returned to charging back to 100 percent. I bought a new usb cable for my charger after the terminal end into the phone became deformed and my phone now charges ~3x faster but ive never had it get abnormally hot.

Its funny that anyone with the know how or has supposedly read these forums continue to pay for (or pirate!) apps that have no effect. WITHOUT UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER AND CUSTOM KERNEL OVERCLOCKING APPS HAVE NO EFFECT! Check the overclock option in JuiceDefender, this option is not supported! The developer of the app has apparently left out any notice that it doesnt work with our kernel so they can continue to make sales.

Battery

I was wondering how I could extend that battery life on my DINC? Any suggestions and tips would be great.
Ah yes, the battery issue. One I am all too familiar with.
Easy:
For whatever reason our phones charge to 90% and stop there. To correct this, you can either charge while the phone is off or do what we call a bump charge. Bump charging involves charging the phone to "full" while its on (the light should be green) and then turning it off while still plugged in. The light will then change to orange again for 30+ minutes and then green again. You will then Really be fully charged.
Also make sure you have GPS and Bluetooth off when you aren't using them. This will help a ton.
There is an option in Settings - Wireless & networks - mobile networks - called "enable always on mobile data". Unchecking this will drastically help save while the phone is asleep on the 3g network. However, doing this will affect how often you receive updates to chats and sync items when the phone is sleeping. To me it isn't a big deal since if I'm not using the phone why should it be working, but everyone is different!
Finally, a rogue app might be nomming away at your battery. An app from the market called System Panel will monitor how much battery each app is eating. Its free initially but if you want it to monitor over time in the background it does cost. However it is definitely worth it since its a great app and useful for any android owner.
Intermediate (has cost):
Evo batteries fit in our phones! The fit is a little tight but it works just fine. Our stock batteries have 1300mah of capacity which is a bit on the low side. The evo battery has 1500, so it's an hour or so better. You can buy them cheap off ebay (OEM Evo Battery) for around $15.
Conversely, there is the official extended capacity battery for our incredibles with a massive 2150mah. The trade off is that it adds bulk to your phone and costs a lot (around $50). There is the third party seidio battery which adds even more capacity (3500) but adds even more bulk.
Advanced:
Are you rooted? There are kernels out there that are undervolted like Hydra kernel, adrynalyne's undervolted and kingklick's voltage scaling kernel. Everyone has differing experiences with them so there's not a solid "best" so to speak. You can flash these kernels using the clockworkmod recovery. This will all be nonsensical if you're not into the Modding scene.
Also if rooted, you can underclock the processor which, depending on the kernel, can help drastically save battery. You can set profiles to have the cpu work at a minimum speed while the screen is off. Kingklick doesn't advise using setcpu with his kernels and it straight up wont work with hydra's, but it can do wonders on any others.
--
Depending on your activity, you should expect 4-5 hours of 3g awake usage and around 5-6 if you're mostly on wifi using the stock battery. 3g can be a battery drain if you're in an are with inadequate service.
Hope this helps!

turning off gps doesn't matter all that much. GPS isn't called upon unless you have an app using it. I have mine on most of the day (for tasker profiles) and have no issue.
Use WiFi when available, its quicker than 3g and takes less battery.
download setCPU (from xda) and make a profile for screen off max/min = 400/245 or something like that.
i have 'always on data' checked, no issues for me
kernels help a ton, kk#5 is a beast.
I'm running uncommon sense, kk#5 and the above settings. I'm on 20 hours unplugged with 35% less, standard usage. -- not bump charged, charged while on to 100%
isn't the system panel app like a task killer? and from what i've read task killers are pretty pointless with froyo......however i have noticed that my phone is constantly running with about 140mb of ram free, i don't know if this is usual or if something is wrong?? i just got my Dinc so i'm new to all the tweeks and tricks, i do have mine rooted though. i'm not that up on changing roms and kernals though so i'm just trying to find out what all i can do to help my battery without having to buy a bigger one. any help would be greatly appreciated!!
If you are rooted and aren't comfortable with flashing ROMs and kernels, look at setcpu that was mentioned before, and search for instructions to remove the stock apps that always startup on their own in the background. Unless you actually use them, then you can't really do that obviously. I don't have any times on how long it lasted before and how long it last now but I do know its improved. I have mine at a processor clock speed of 500mhz and I don't see much lag time unless I'm really running a lot of things. I'm on WiFi listening to Pandora and I'm not experiencing keyboard lag while typing this.

no...the max it'll run is 1.19 ghz. worst that will happen is a bootloop which can be fixed through nandroid.
Just increment a little at a time. I usually run mine at 1.075 ghz w/ on demand.
screen off profile max/min - 450/245
I use JuiceDefender on my Incredible and believe it or not it really works. It's turns off your data while the phone is on sleep mode so no battery is being drained. I get at least 5 hours extra battery life. You also get other features that come along with it so just give it a try It's free!

Yes system panel CAN be a task killer but I do not suggest using it as such. Instead, it does a great job monitoring how much CPU each app uses so you can take educated action.

1. If you use location based services and have GPS on, it will use the GPS module quite a bit. This is certainly a battery drain.
2. If you dont have any issues with always on mobile data then you must be in an area with good coverage. For me if its left on it drains my battery quite a bit because I'm in a flaky coverage area.
Everyone's phone is different though. Finding what works and what doesn't is the first step to perfection. I just installed the new skyraider sense and my battery life has been ultra fantastic. It works great for me, but I know others dont have that success.

[SCARY] Battery Heating Like A Mother******

Ok so i woke up this morning to find that my vibrant was heating up to 84 degree celcius which is like 183 degree farhwenheit. I burnt my fingers while touching the phone this morning (not literally). And here is what happened:
I usually sleep by charging my phone and putting it under my pillow before sleeping. I plug in my headphones, use miui music player's sleep timer and sleep. I didnt have this problem before. Here is my config:
Project - V Latest
Rooted
No Battery Hog Apps (Normal Drain = 2MA)
Bali - Capped
Running at stock frequency (No overclocking)
The only change I have made before this started happening is changed to bali kernel. Could that be the problem. Is it normal?
have you oc'd at all, how long has this issue been going on?
generally speaking i have noticed that when i had my vibrant oc'd it would heat up alot when charging, my reccomendation is to set a setcpu profile to throttle your cpu speed when charging. I had mine throttle back to 800MHz while charging and the heating issue was severely diminished. Never let your phone charge while the cpu is oc'd beynd 1ghz that has always given me heating issues.
Hope this helps
-Cheers

Thx for the reply. I forgot to post that i wasntr overclocking at all. And its not undervolted as well. Thanks for the reply anyways
Any bali kernel gives my phone a perpetual fever. I've taken all bali downloads off my sd and will not use one anymore I don't care about what minimal if any battery life it's supposed to give you(although I never noticed any battery life increase) if it fries my phone.

same exact thing happened to me, ran project-v and on overstock at the time, i honestly thought the internal components would have melted from that heat. Only thing that happened was the battery was completely drained
The first time I had used Bali on a ROM, I thought I made a bad flash and my phone was throwing a feverish fit.
bali is good and all, but all that overheating scares me.
Typically that happens to me except I don't run any apps while asleep. I've taken it to tmo and they said it's fine. If anything my batt smells like what the batt itself is made off. More along the lines of something from the batt has leaked. However the phone ends up overheating on a simple wordfued or words with friends play action. At times the phone ends up turning itself off.
It may be because you have the pillow over the phone. I left mine charging once with a pillow over it by accident and it got real hot.

Wifi overheating
Hi people.
I flashed Bali 1.8.8 UV and noticed my Vibrant had severe overheating problems when wifi is turned on. Not working as you may know, but with a minimal network traffic. I have switched to Bali X, but I have heard that all the Bali kernels suffer from overheating.
Please, tell me a kernel that has great battery life and doesn't have this inconvenience. My battery drops badly with this one!
Thanks a lot.
Ecotox's kernel is save way more battery IMO!

Gingerbread - high CPU utlization by "System"

On my Bell Atrix, I've found that in every build of Gingerbread I've tried (both the AT&T and Orange France versions), my CPU never cycles down from 1 GHz. On Froyo, it would change depending on usage, but with Gingerbread, it's always pegged on max. According to SystemPanel app, approximately 40% of the CPU is constantly utilized by "System" non-stop. This was not the case with Froyo.
I wonder if this ties in with the entry in the battery usage list which shows X as being among the top two users of battery. The CPU total for X is almost the same as the time the phone has been awake.
Has anyone else experienced this? I know there have been a lot of people complaining about the poor battery life on Gingerbread (and I'm one of them), but now I'm wondering if it has to do with "Service" and the mysterious X constantly using the CPU in the background.
Do u have any OC kernels in there or just stock GB?

I've used the stock kernels, the original ones with the RAM fix, and edgen's overclocked kernel and they all behave exactly the same.

I had the same problem, when you delete all data from fastboot (fastboot-w), install 2.3.4 gingerbread returned and the battery lasts me about the same as the stock 2.1.1 FR. (taking into account that spends more battery 2.3.4). now I have the Orange Radio 2.3.4 with kernel faux123 0.100.00R. sorry for my English
I've run fastboot -w, and used CWM to clear data/cache both before installing ROMs and after installing ROMs, and none of that made a difference. BUT last night I installed kennethpenn's Beta 4, and for the first time, my CPU frequencies were properly scaling, and System was not taking up 40%. Since then, I've wiped data/cache and tried different kernels and different ROMs, and all of them are working. It's almost as though kennethpenn's ROM installed something that wasn't there previously and is persisting through wipes, and ROM/kernel installations. Is that even possible?
freeze your bloat.
use setcpu for system profiles.
problem solved.
For me it was X server running in background and taking 40-50% of cpu. I had to move it because there was no other solution.

I didn't have to do this with the Froyo builds and I still had excellent battery life (2-3 days). if I go back to 1.8.3 I still have excellent battery life. And that's with Corporate Sync, Gmail push, and Twitter and Facebook in Blur's Social Networking.
There is something in the leaked Gingerbread roms that eats batteries for lunch.

You're right. This wasn't in 1.83. But if you freeze your bloat and use setcpu profiles, you will get 2 days of use from your phone.

That's pretty much what I was getting as well. X was always second to display in terms of battery usage, and it seemed to be using the CPU constantly whenever the phone was awake. I'm not sure what to make of it, what with some people seeing it and some people not. All I know is that after I tried kennethpenn's ROM, X disappeared, and my CPU seems not to be occupied nonstop. Since then I've wiped my phone and installed the Ninja ROM and faux's stock international kernel, and my phone continues to function without X eating up the CPU. This was the exactly same setup that, prior to kennethpenn's ROM, was suffering from constant high CPU usage. No idea what changed it, but now things *seem* to be operating normally and my battery is much improved.
I solved it renaming "/etc/X11" to "/etc/X11.bkp". So... X process magically disappeared!!!

Open setcpu. Go to profiles. Then quit and go back in to setcpu and it should stick. Don't know why. I'm going to try a profile to keep it at 1100 like temp over 0. Who knows.

Funny. I opened setcpu and it was back at 1300, so my solution is moot. I did just set a profile if battery is below 101% then scale to 1100 low priority (40)
Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk
I don't know what the deal is. Set cpu tells me the clock is set to 1100. Which matches cm7 settings which also matches system panel. But watching the cpu speed in setcpu it will go to 1300. So yeah. Back to the drawing board.
Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk
Bear with me. Not spamming. Here's my deal. Most people's governors are greyed out. Mine is not. Tasker, system monitor show it which then allows setcpu to show it. If I'm on powersave the clock will not stick to my setting of 1100. If I set it to performance. It sticks. Any one confirm or deny?
Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk
I was seeing the same thing until I made a profile for Battery < 101 max at 1000 and a priority of 80%. Now every time I open setcpu he cpu maxes as 1000.
Indeed.. atrix with stock kernel runs all the time at high freqs..
with faux kernel, is at lowest value, so we save battery.
does it have a governor enabled by default or something?
whatever he did, its pretty good!
Imagine that with undervolt..

A "hot"issue...

Hi dudes i am using cm7 nightly#177, based on 2.3.5 andy, since 1 week, and with its 2.6.35 kernal, and just a little bit oc of about 576 mhz, and lowest to about 352 mhz, and the governer is in smartassv2.( hope u all got the situation), so now my problem is the phone get too hot(atleast for the above cpu settings) only when it is connected to internet, and not always. So whats the matter? And i think it is as hot as running the phone @ 650+ mhz in old 7.0.3 cm7(full load!) . So what might be the problem?had any one experienced the same?

No dudes itz not becoz of weather, if its so then why i cant experience it in 7.0.3 stable, as i used it for a month, and for checking again, i reverted back to it, and checked, now its not happening, again i flashed nightly, the problem is back, and i experience the hot issue in charging, also when i connect to carrier data,ie edge. And not when i use wifi . Its pretty hot when i use edge, and cools down when i dissable carrier data access.

K dudes, but now I tried a clean install, with 3.35.20.10 radio and 2.6.32.41 kernal with same #177 rom, so I will check it out

Htc, says in the german usermanual for htc touch 2...
don't let it go beyond 60 C [140F] ( the battery temperature.. the only thing you can measure), maybe this is a very high limitation
but i think 41C is not critical and even 45-48C should be no problem regarding to the statement of htc.

Deadly Issue ;( !! (UPDATE: occurs with the stock kernel)

Hello everyone...
I have 2 issues with my Transformer
the first one is that whenever i leave my Transformer for couple hours it shuts down !! doesn't occur when charging but it does when it's not.. even when the battery is around 80% !! i had this problem with ALL kernels except the stock kernel which i don't wanna use !! also had this problem for around 2 months...
the second one happened today when i left my Transformer "Charged" at 100%.. and after couple of hours i found it shut down but when i powered it on again i found the battery 27% !!
i went to the battery stats and found that battery was decreasing slowly and there was a gap (which means that it turned off) and after the gap it shows the battery low !! it happened within 6 hours !!
Please help me if you can... !! I'm using Revolver ROM 3.9.5 and "Blades Kernel 3" that comes in the Revolver Parts...
UPDATE : The problem occurs with the stock kernel !!
This sounds very familiar to the problem I had with my Galaxy S2 a month ago.
It kept shutting down every few hours, and it was driving me mad. Then one day I uninstalled the app greenpower, and it was fine afterwards. You don't have the greenpower app by any chance? If not, maybe it can be caused by some other app you normally use?
The battery might be hosed. Have you ever let it hit 0 before? A lot of batteries never fully recover after being fully depleted once or twice.

I never heard of this app... Just like i said it doesn't happen with the stock kernel !!
But the reason I'm using other kernels is because i wanna Overclock !!

No i never let it hit 0%... but i don't think that the problem is in the battery
However I'll try it and see what happens !
sounds like a silly question but i have seen it alot. Are you charging through a computer(USB) or wall?
It could be related to setCPU and the according profiles. Just recently I saw that my profiles were messed up after updating ROM and kernel. Might be worth a shot.
Reinstall stock kernel Issue #1 fixed.
Issue 2 sounds like charger shut off and left TF on not charging.
You've pretty much explained to yourself why the thing is shutting down.. It works fine on the stock kernel but not one that is letting you overclock.. Sounds to me like you are either overclocking more than it can handle or undervolting to much or both.
I can almost bet that its not shutting down completely and its just going into a state that the screen is off but the OS is hung up, so its not responding to you turning the screen on.. This would explain why the battery seems to be dieing when its sitting idle.
Not sure about it dieing while its plugged in other than maybe a fluke.
I don't wanna use the stock kernel.. it's really slow !!
and i over clock to 1.4 ghz only since i can't overclock more than that because it restarts itself endlessly if i overclocked more than 1.4 ghz !! i undervolted about -25 or -50.. not much !!
Yes i charge it on a wall or anything but NOT on my computer...
How can i change profiles in setcpu ??

No no you misunderstood! DONT let the battery hit 0.
First, you need to use more exclamation points !!!!
sounds like you are suffering from deep sleep issues. What rom are you running? also, have you tried running a custom kernel and not overclock it? You have several variables that can be influencing your issues, start isolating what may be causing your problems. the kernel seems the must likely of culprits, I would clear the overclock and install setcpu and run it for a but and see if you can replicate your issue.

Just try the non stock kernel, oc it but dont uv it, not all devices can handle uv, even if it is only a little bit. Even take it back too 1000mhz and try to increase the uv and oc by little bits at a time to see exactly what your transformer can handle. I think its the uv thats causing the problems. Experiment a bit and youll find the sweet spot.
I'm using Revolver ROM and i mentioned that...
I've never undervolted till yestersay.. maybe it caused the second problem
I set the clock speed at 1ghz and i'm waiting to see if anything changes..
Yeah... the problem still occurs even after setting the clock speed at 1ghz and default voltage !! using clemsyn kernel ver 22...
Every device is different. Differences in manufacturing etc. You might have a picky device. Plus these are mobile platforms. No fans, just convection cooling. They are not meant to be tweaked and oc'ed they way we do. The stock kernel is very fast. What is it that you cannot do on the stock kernel that the extreme oc let's you do?

I'm guessing my device is bad and it's Asus' problem ! i tried setting the clock speed at normal 1Ghz but the problem still occurs !! the reason i overclock is that because with the stock kernel i get slower web browsing and slower flash playback and slower overall performance!! however I'm back on the stock kernel to check out if the problem is gone or not...
I doubted my device couple months ago... because I've seen everyone overclock their devices at 1.6 GHz Without any issues !! but when i try to overclock a little bit more than 1.4 GHz it restarts itself endlessly !!
Had the same issue a few months ago. Be prepared to wake up to a dead TF.
I sent it back to ASUS and they replaced main board and battery. Under warranty of course. I suggest you unroot and use a stock rom for now.

You stated in an earlier post that the problem does not show up in the stock ASUS setup, but only with a custom ROM and Kernel. How does that make it ASUS' problem. If you buy a car that says it runs on 87 octane fuel and you put 100% nitro methane in the tank and it blows up it is not the manufacturers fault.
