[Q] Is heating and battery issues isolated to stock Cyanogen 11

If i flash any other custom ROM like Mokee or the Unofficial Cyanogen 12 will these issues go away?
Because from what i read the heating and battery leak issues occur due to some bug in the Cyanogen OS (stock) that comes preinstalled.
So instead of having to do a temporary fix, flashing CM12 or any other custom ROM would solve the issue right?

Not Really....

Heating issue remains in custom ROMs as well. I have observed same heating in CM11 unofficial ROM. In Paranoid ROM heating is less but the performance in Gaming is also low and laggy. I think Heating is the tendency of Snapdragon 615 and dissipation is not proper in Yureka.

Hardware Problem
I wish it was the software which was pushing it self and generating heat. But this is not true. Yureka's hardware itself produces a lot of heat that the CM Kernel itself can't force it to cool down. Though you can optimize it sometimes. I do it a lot to keep my device at normal. But kinda not helps alot.

if you guys are thinking about heating issue gone forget about it..
because its hardware problem not software, it's not going to leave you no matter what Yu said.
I do not have any problem with battery performance. you should know that it's a 5.5" Screen phone so it's not going to last longer if you think.
but yes you can extend you battery life with some tweaking..

So there is no way to solve this issue. i still have time to return the phone to Amazon. Should i do it? (I think the replacement device will also have this problem). So all Yureka phones suffer from this problem?
Could some of your share your optimization techniques to reduce the heat. i have created .nomedia file in SD Card. Seems to have solved the issue but can't view anything on SD Card

Dont get carried away by many complaints. I also own a YU.
Here is my quick review:
1. With 3G i am able to browse around 4+ hours including some online video streaming which is quiet good for 2500ma battery.
2. The device gets heated up in 3G but still bearable. And one main reason is the quality and the material of the back panel.
3. I already have experience with CM custom roms with my other mobiles and sooner or later this heating issue could be fixed by CM.
4. With regular use this mobile should be quiet good for a days use.
5. Camera quality is quiet good.
6. There are problems with sd card. i would suggest not to use SD card till Lollipop is out.
I hope this helps.
In my opinion this is still a beast in the price range with possibilities of lot of customizations

Have a look here how to control the heating..

Is Lollipop really worth upgrading to?

So, Samsung finally released Lollipop for just about every Note 4 variant now but, after reading a lot of people suffering from huge battery drain, overheating and random crashes, I'm just wondering if I should bother updating to lollypop myself.
I'm still on stock 4.4.4 (with a fair amount of mods) and my phone runs exactly how I want it to. The only ever problem I have is sometimes contacts crashes, but it's not even done that for about a week.
What are the advantages (if any) of upgrading to lollipop?
Let's see if you can convince me to part with my very stable and perfectly functional modded 4.4.4.

BOC5 works perfectly fine here and is a lot smoother than any KitKat version that I used prior. If you play a lot of games then chances are you might run into the GPU bug, but other than that I see no problems in going with the newest Android version available. :good:

I got N910C. No root.
These are some facts about KK & LP according to my own experience.
KitKat 4.4.4:
Had volume spike answering bug (mentioned somewhere on XDA),
Had read only SD card problem (due to Android restrictions),
Lollipop 5.0.1:
Solved both above mentioned issues of KK,
Faster and smoother than KK,
No crashes, freezes, hickups, overheating - rock stable,
Better RAM management,
Better or equal battery consumption,
Material design (I love it, somebody else may not)
1-2 second answering ''hello hello'' bug (caller can't hear me 1-2 sec. after my answer). I don't know is anybody else has this bug,
GPU throttling bug (when phone reaches about 50 C some games stutter and benchmarks like Antutu show low results due to lower GPU frequencies)
Everything is perfect except this. This should be fixed ASAP in next update.
Be aware of this and consider eventually upgrade to Lollipop

Just in case: lots of shortcut apps (e.g. pulling down the notification bar!) don't work on Samsung's iteration of Lollipop anymore. That's still one of the biggest issues at least for me!

I have updated my UK ee phone to the German BOC3 and I have to say I'm very impressed with it. I have done a dirty flash and I haven't encountered a single issue. My battery life seems better, the system settings feel cleaner and the general visual tweaks and nice. Looking forwards to the btu

Experience with 5.01 Lollipop Update, i have had no issues with Lollipop
Lp fixed the Bluetooth stuttering bug for playing music in my car via Bluetooth.
The notifications are great and usually appropriate...
No battery crash or menu problems on Bell.
No hello hello bug I have noticed on Bell carrier

Overheating issues on most roms but not all

I tried pure nexus resurrection remix aicp and maybe briefly some other rom with the stock kernels and then with elementalx and elite kernel and i found out that all roms i tried except the pure nexus and both kernels (on pure nexus too) make my 6p heat up to insane temperatures almost instantly when running light things such as a web browser (no games or video) and by insane temperatures i mean the upper part of the glass gets nearly too hot to hold and the whole body gets less hot but still very hot. For some reason this does not happen on pure nexus with the stock kernel and it can stay between cool and slightly warm while doing the same things that make other setups nearly melt a hole in the phone. I know all about how the snap 810 runs hotter than other chips but this just cant be normal and on top of that it works flawlessly with the stock purenexus kernel. So, does anyone have any idea what might be causing this? I assume its going to be a rare or maybe even a one off issue, since i don't see much in the way of similar issues from other users but i really have no idea what could cause it. (BTW, each rom was flashed after wiping everything and each kernel with a wipe of both cache options in twrp so i doubt that any issues could be caused by that)

I would change the Title of the thread. People will think that you're criticizing a developer's work.

It's called.... Excellent Engineering!
There was a Mercedes-Benz commercial in there somewhere but oh well....
I'm sure there are kernel tweaks involved that are keeping that ROM steady out at lower temps

Hmmm... i wonder if anyone else gets this huge temp variation between purenexus and other roms, it doesn't seem so just from quickly going over some comments on the rom threads.. Might have to check if frequencies behave in a different way on purenexus [BTW, changed title as it probably was hinting at me hating the rom or something]

lag

Anyone get lag on most custom roms over time that needs a restart to fix? I don't think it happens often and it doesn't look like clearing recents or anything will help. Is there another method people use to keep it always fast without needing to restart? I forgot if stock had that problem too. When it doesn't lag though, performance is nice and smooth like how it first was after a clean flash while not affecting the battery at all. Would be nice to know what causes it too

do you use the headphone jack? Could be caused by the memory leak on all B12 source based ROMs

Yeah sometimes I think I noticed faster drain too that's been reported as an AEX sound bug before. I'm currently on the latest 7/11 non treble. I wonder if the newer treble builds don't have that problem I'll need to read into it more though it's sad to see the dev has left. Should it be fine if I don't use earphones for the whole day or if changed to a different rom? I think I will go back to using Bluetooth earphones if that fixes it too. I was using wired because I was lazy to connect Bluetooth and hoping it would save some battery. They sound slightly better too but looks like it did the opposite! Would be nice if rom could stay fast the whole time. Thanks for the reply

I didn't persist with B12 ROMs as I soon discovered the bug. I've heard it exists on Treble too. How the memory leaks occur no one has reported.
To check use terminal:
su
top -s 6
Under the USER column the two Audioserver processes can be found. Under their respective RES column is their RAM usage. It may just grow during usage. It may be possible to kill it to restart the memory leak but that won't help with it's large CPU% usage drain either.

The latest available RR-O without the bug. Kranoner's 20180511, google his AFH for it. It also requires a APN fix

Ty I will try

WORST THINGS HAPPENING !!

HELLO EVERYONE
SORRY TO YOU GUYS BY STRESSING YOU GUYS
BUT I CANT DO ANYTHING MORE THAN THAT
ONE MORE PROBLEM OF MINE IS THAT :-
EVERY ROM I USED LIKE
THE FLOYD ROM
THE PIXEL EXTENDTED AND PIXEL EXPIRENCE ROM
THE EVOLUTION X AND CRDROID ROM
(I DID USE THE LINEAGE OS...BUT I WANTED PURE ANDROID SO I SKIPPED IT)
EVERY ROM IS CREATING MAJOR PROBLEMS FOR ME TO USE
I USED AROUND FOR 1 YEAR NOW (I GUESS)
AND FROM 1 YEAR IAM FACING THESE PROBLEMS
I HAVE USED ROMS WITH ANDROID :-
ANDROID 13
ANDROID 12
ANDROID 11
ANDROID 10
ANDROID 09
LIKE :-
HEATING UP LIKE COAL
WHEN NOT USED (MOSTLY AT NIGHT)
USING BATTERY LIKE PETROL
WHEN NOT USED (MOSTLY AT NIGHT)
APP FAILING OR CRASHING (EVERYTIME !)
WHEN PLAYING AUDIO ON AUX/BLUETOOTH DEVICES (LIKE HEADPHONES)
THERES ALOT OF CRACKING SOUND IN BETWEEN
ROM CRASHING
POWERING OFF ITSELF
CALLING RANDOM EMERGECY CALLS
YES .. I HAVE OBSERVED THESE PROBLEMS IN MY DAILY ROUTINE
I HAVE A FEELING THAT THE ROMS COULD BLAST UP MY DEVICE BY MAKING THE BATTERY THICKER
AND NO I DONT USE ANY TYPE OF HIGH END APPS
THE DEVICE IS FOR MY SCHOOL WORK ... SO I ONLY USE TEAMS,WHATSAPP,OFFICE.ETC.
I ALSO DIG UP THE INFO VIA ADB BUT NO SUCH MAJOR THINGS
(SORRY CANT PASTE THE LOG AS I HAVE LOST IT)
SO THAT MUCH ONLY
SHALL I GO BACK TO STOCK FIRMWARE
OR SHALL FLASH ANY SPECIFIC KERNEL
OR CAN YOU GUYS IN THE COMMUNITY SPECIFY ANY GOOD ROM THAT IS STABLE , SMOOTH , AND SUPPORTS ALL THE FEATURES OF ANDROID .?

ALSO A SMALL SUGGESTION
IF ANY DEV CAN MAKE A ROM LIKE MIUI 12.5 (IF POSSIBLE !!)
IT WOULD BE GREAT !!

This is pretty much hardware issue. You can't possibly think that all roms cause all that. It gorra be a part of the device has deteriorated pretty fast, or your device has been faulty since the beginning.
Everybody is having a pretty decent performance, including me, who've had the device since the release date.

Well. I'm on Pixel Experience A12. I can't really promise the prime experience but it gives me the Pixel Experience on my 6 years old phone. But I don't get any random reboots or audio issues, ...etc.

Im on floyd v7 rn and its runs fine except for the battery as i havent had it changed since release. I think your device has some hardware issues

I Don't Get It Till Now
Maybe Its An Hardware Issues
Because I Think I Am Only The One Who Is Facing These Issues ?
Now Currently The Stock Rom Is Atleast Availabe For Me To Use The Phone
Still Hunting A Better Rom For The Device
Which Supports
Volte Calls
Improved Battery Life
Better Performance And Cooler Temperatures.
Even The Stock Rom Has Werid Issue
When I Turn The Phone Off At An 100%
When I Leave Home
And Turn On After Around 8 Hours
When I Return Home
The Phone Gets On At An 9%
Which Shocks Me
How Could The Battery Could Be Used Even When It's Off
I Even Tried A Code *#0228#
Which Calibrates The Battery
Even Then No Change
Now This Issue Is Also Getting Frequent With The Others
Any Way Thanks For The Replies
I Guess The Phone ....
Got Some Hardware Issue Or It's Upset From Me For Some Reason
Now I Still Have To Hunt More For Some Bountiful ROMs For The Device Which Satisfies My Conditions
Thanks Any Way
For The Replies And Help !!
