Mine is 28 C and I'm using phone for more than 2 hours, internet browser. If you tried differents rom and kernel and still nothing, I suggest you to clear up you phone. Reboot in recovery, mount and storage and format system, data, cache, factory reset, boot in download mode, flash stock ics rom, then root with cf root kernel. Then install again rom which you're using at the moment.

I9100 has the highest heat emission (my brothers 35 degrees)
I9100T is better (mines 28 degrees)
I9100G has the best i hear but i cant confirm that
The best you can do is find a good modem, as i noticed ever since i switched from LPQ to LP6 i've heated up a lot less
i also use siyah so i think that doesn't cause huge amounts of heating, as mentioned before always close apps
Hope this helped and good luck

Thank u for ur replay will try to change the modem
But what does the modem have to do with hesting up ?
As i know hesting up does not have to do with modem only kernel ?
Am i wrong :S
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium

Oh no your not wrong, both kernel, and modem have to do with heating up, but the Siyah kernel hasnt had any complaints with heating, so that's what makes me think your modem is the problem
I dunno which modem will be best for your device sry
you will have to figure out, use instructions here

My SGS2 is going back for repairs due to overheating. It started by draining a full battery in an hour. Battery temp was 64C and now it heats up just by inserting the battery and not even turning on the phone. Not possible to charge it either. Tried flashing stock rom, factory resets but no go so my belief is that this is a hardware issue and not a software problem. Needless to say it has never been close to water or any other fluids. I got the phone about two months ago so hopefully this will be, and should be IMO, covered by warranty.
Will be interesting to see what the repair center says...

Do you check for any wakelock?
Or try change you sim telco

Hi,
My Wife's GS2 had a problem overheating recently too - it was stock ROM, not even rooted, so it wasn't overclocked. I pulled it apart, racking my brains trying to find the problem. I tried updating the the latest official ROM, updating the Modem, but nothing...
It turned out that her Internal SD Card was full, which must have been causing IO issues, and the the CPU to overwork or something, because as soon as I transferred all the photos etc. from the card, and cleared caches, it resumed running at a reasonable temperature.
Sometimes the answer is simpler than the one we're looking for - or it certainly was in my case.
Hope that helps.

Hi...mine was heating up like hell too, and its 3 days old...
for me it was the facebook mobile application on samsung galaxy sII i9100 (ICS). Installed KH3 modem , no change .. but task manager showed 30-66 cpu usage...the top 10% surface of the face of the phone and the back of the phone near the camera was searing hot, somewhere up to 50-55 degrees Celsius, making a phonecall in those conditions was very uncomfortable, and i was afraid of hardware damage if that went on. So, If i shut it down and used facebook from browser, it cooled off back to 30-35 degrees in a matter of minutes. only mobile data was turned on, gps, bluetooth, wifi was always off.
So im guessing for these kinda heat-ups (top of the phone and upper back) it is app which drains the CPU...
Note : i had no problems with battery life, meaning it resisted 12h moderate/heavy usage even with facebook mobile app...but i always try to exit all apps when im not using the phone ( bad(?) symbian habit)

you should change the modem :good:

X10 shuts down when battery level is under 20%

hey,
I've a problem: When the battery of my X10 is under 20%, the phone shuts down automatically. When I start the phone again, it works till the next shut down. (this can take 5 minutes or 2 hours. Its different)
When I use the phone without turning it in standby, I can use it till the battery complete empty.
Is anything defect, or is it normal?
rom: WB V6 on stock kernel, but with stock rom, it was the same.
sorry for my language, I'm from germany
greeting, Tobi
Have u used battery monitor widget to get that it always shutting down at 20% , mine does it at 40% . Mines fine if im using it but if its in standby . . . Shutdown ... I then switch it on and says I got 20-35 battery and phone charges very fast back up to 100 . I think my battery is buggered which is what I think is wrong with yours. I could recommending a temp fix of freezing it battery overnight then charging for like 8 hours . Sometimes helps ..

Hi mate
I don't know what you mean by accu(I understand you meant battery level?) It sounds like one of the old kernels they were making, are you sure you are on stock kernel?
You could try flashing another rom on a ftf file with flashtool.. but try to charge phone when its off.let me know.

yes I mean battery level. I've only flashed wb roms. Bevore, I only used stock se rom, so I must have the stock kernel. In settings is written: 2.6.29-00054-g5f01537 SEMCU .........
Do you mean only charge when phone is off could be the solution? I will try it...

yes I used a widget, so I saw the battery level. 20% was an example, I remember I had the problem between 20% and 30%, too! But the most time its when battery is under 20%
What do you mean with temp fix of freezing it?
I think I had the problem since I've the phone. So you think my battery is defect?
So you also had this Problem with the SE rom? If not, try to wipe the battery stats with xrecovery before flashing a new rom
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I definitely heard this issue on old roms so make sure you flash the latest patches updates for that rom and follow well the installation procedure(factory reset,wiping cache,dalvik,bat stats)
If after charging the phone (offline) it does not charge, try to flash a ftf firmware with flashtool.
I have this too on all Roms but it starts at 35 and keeps doing it until 0, bad calibrated battery i think. Had this on 2.1 once and it was gone without me doing anything, weird Battery.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
can we use a working/optimized batterystats.bin to fix this problem?
as the topic says.
Yes I had the problem with stock SE rom too.
I already tried battery stats with xrec, but same problem.
I've also the newest updates for my rom ( wolf v6). Do you think I should try it with another kernel? Now I have stock.
Or I flash my rom & kernel again..
and can someone say me how to calibrate my battery correctly?
thanks
Same thing here with stock kernel...now i'm th kernel and team rom and it's ok
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
I still have the problem..
I remember I flashed zuzu's kernel for root. Is this the problem?
What do you think is the best kernel for me atm? I dont need any overclocking options.
Hope it will go with other kernel..
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
try using TH kernel its smooth and has excellent battery life !!
https://market.android.com/details?...xLDEsImNvbS5uZW1hLmJhdHRlcnljYWxpYnJhdGlvbiJd try out this app i use it though xD.
problem solved!
I first tried to flash doomkernel + wolf6... still had the problem.
Then I flashed TH Kernel + Rom and let my phone go off, because of empty battery.
Since I did this, I dont have the problem!
thanks for help!
btw: The problem was not solved with the new rom..
1 week ago, I bought a new battery and now my phone doesn't shut down all the time
-> my battery is defect
I am currently in discussion with 3 UK and they have informed me that the fault is because of a faulty glue joint, which they claim is my fault for dropping the handset. I am wondered how many people are actually having this issue, and what network you are on?

[Q] Running Hot - Any suggestions?

My first time posting here, so please be gentle.
I've had my SGS2 for around 6 months now, its an unlocked ASIA (as I live in BKK). I noticed on the original stock firmware that the phone was running hot, as in the back panel around the camera would heat up to the point I could feel it in my pocket. This would normally happen if I was using a game like angry birds, or a psx emulator. But sometimes it would happen in the browser under normal conditions. I just thought this may be a issue with dual core phones, so I took this as a 'feature' and accepted it.
But now lots of people I work with have this phone, and it came up in conversation about heat. Everyone stated they do not have this issue, that the phone remains cool all the time.
I have moved between many different ROMs, and have finally stuck with Westcrips ICS ROM. Then a strange thing happened, the heat issue goes away with version 8.4. Phone is cool all the time, even playing my PSX emulator in software mode. Battery also increased from 12 hours to 16-18 hours.
But now I just moved up to 9.3, and its back again, the front screen is very hot to touch when using things like the MX video player, or surfin the web. And if I launch a game ... well, forget about it. The battery drain is immense to, be lucky if I pull an hour of use like that.
Anyone else suffer from this? Hardware fault? I can't take it back because my flash counter is probably in the 20's now, and I can't find a reset JIG in Bangkok.
Cheers.
FYI, I always do a clean wipe, dalvik / cache / permissions.
same issued here, phone bought from Thailand also. Phone getting hot when browser,downloading and playing some games( not all). And its really hot
Changing Rom and kernel sometimes solved it for awhile but eventually will come back.
Looking for solution also
Thanks
P/s: right now im using LA4 stock Rom and CF root LA4 kernel and still get hot

Thanks for getting back to me.
The one I know that fixes it is Resurrection 8.4. Its a dam good rom, and given me the best battery life (once I got 20 hours with normal use). But there is an issue with touch screen sensitivity that makes it annoying.
Maybe its something to do with the Kernel on the Asian models?
If I find a fix I'll pm you.
Hmmm mine only gets uncomfortably hot when playing some 3d games. Didn't experience the same level of heat when just browsing though... It just gets a little warm but far from gaming temps.
What i did was undervolt and underclock when playing. It did reduce the heat and extend the battery though i admit it's not the best solution / workaround.

What settings did u use for setcpu if u don't mind me asking? Will it work on ICS?

I use Tegrak Overclock so I can mess with clocks and voltages with the stock kernel. See below for my settings... 100% stable on my phone.

Well it looks like the ICS kernel is not supported right now under Tegrak. It is bleeding edge.
I tried setCPU to under clock but ended up with a lot of slow down and some full system freezes.
Guess its back to 8.4 until I find a more definitive answer.

Since you're using Westcrip's Resurrection Remix, you can get rid of the triangle by using Chainfire's TriangleAway app - I'm using Resurrection too and it got rid of the flash counter and the triangle.
TriangleAway should work on all ICS roms though.
Strange, installed triangle away yesterday evening. Work like a charm, so I guess if I need to return I can now.

i thought it only runs once after booting up and then only when you add or delete files from sd card.
well i will try it and post back.
if a memory card is faulty, would the card still work?
EDIT: took out sd card and still gets hot.
thanks anyways

Did you try checking the temperature when it's hot? If yes, then how far it goes when it's really hot. I think 35 degrees is a normal mark.

download "temp+cpu" and monitor the temp
sent from S2
The main factors of phone heating, are Modem, Kernel, and Rom (but rom not so much)
When you don't have the proper modem, there have been complaints of overheating, i experienced it myself when i used the LPS modem, but since switching to my current one, i have had no problems
the kernel heating occurs when you UV or OC a custom kernel, that can be fixed by flashing a new kernel
Some roms might cause over heating, but very rarely, as roms are lighter then TW, and should be running less programs in the back ground
just some friendly advice, try flashing another modem

[Solved] Battery drops after abnormal shut down?

Hi,
My battery drops after every abnormal shut down, by pressing the power button for ~8 second. (I do this when the phone freeze.)
And when I turn my SGS2 on, some battery "disappear", sometimes 10%, sometimes 20%, or ever 50%.
For example, I have 90% of battery right before I shut it down (abnormal shut down) , and maybe I get only 50% of battery after I turn the phone on. It that possible that the battery drains 40% in 1 minute? Or it is normal because I shut it down improperly? (have a look of the attachment)
There is no problem if I reboot it normally.
I have two battery, having the same problem.
I face this issue in many ROMs, stock GB ROM, AOKP ROM, MIUI, etc.
I'm using Siyah Kernel 3.1.2 now.
Thanks for any help
(Sorry for my bad English)
I've heard a few users mention this battery drop and i've experienced it myself. It even happens sometimes if i restart my phone after flashing a mod or something.
You'll notice that the battery level starts to climb back up to where it left of (less the normal usage discharge)
Yep, normal on the SGS2.
Just part of the battery weirdness as a result of that fuel gauge chip. Entropy512 has written many a post on the subject if you feel like searching/reading up on it. Nothing to be alarmed about tho, and nothing you can fix. Just make sure you've got plenty of battery left before you do a flash.
On other hand, your freezes if regular is a worry!

Yup, my SGS2 freezes quite frequently after upgrading to Android 4.0.4.
Maybe I'll downgrade to 4.0.3, or perform a full wipe and flash the ROM again to fix this.

i neva faced tht batt drops but one common point is u mus b full on batt wen flashing,the kernel does it suit ur need,apps installd,ur modem ,signal,an look at my sig --right now iam on 520 apps (reason iam pointing this is bcause i figured number of apps tht jus don stop,an i had to remove them..)
Battery drop is pretty common say 7 out of 10 times if you remove battery, after boot you will be 10-20 percent less. Specially if you change roms quickly..

Apart from the first few words of what you said (which I've omitted), what does the rest of it have to do with the OP's query about battery dropping after a dodgy shutdown or when flashing firmwares ?

You understood that?
I'm starting to wonder if his keyboard is just missing letters.
Hahaha ;-) I tried to. I managed to work out the bit I quoted had nothing to do with what the OP asked. Apparently all the cool kids speak like that nowadays.

{Q} - Galaxy SII overheat issue

Dear Family,
i have a problem with my galaxy SII since i got the phone tell now
i've got this handheld 6 month back and its now rooted having ICS AOKP RR 2.2 with CM kernel remix
and the device is getting overheated in the part of the camera , the overheat is happening when ever am browsing the net on WIFI or even 3G
i searched the internet regarding the same and i got that the issue is in the base-band so i flashed KH3 and nothing was changed
i flashed my device with amout 300 ROM (official/unofficial) and nothing change in this issue
also i found that my device sometimes is stucked on 1200 MHz for about 5 MINS without a valid reason in the foreground
appreciate your cooperation
Regards,
Moe
Mine heats up too, if you think about how much stuff is crammed into such a thin, light phone it's no wonder it gets hot
Don't worry about it

You have to worry when battery temp reaches more then 50 degree C, turn of phone for 2 mins then
Their are apps on market to measure it

300 ROM??? Hmmm... Anyway I m also having(probably Had ) the heating issue... First Kernel-Siyah 3.2.x was heating while talking in call also.. Used to heat up like anything. Now on Fluxi heat reduced but not completely.. Today I called my frend to McD to check his SGS2 phone.. His phone is purely stock and was runnning ICS official 4.0.3.. For normal use the phone dint heat, neither mine.. Now the heat game started when I watched a Video(Not HD) even in mine also But gud thing was mine was not as heated as his may be because of Kernel or anything I dunno.. The main thing s battery shouldn get heated too much... But I dunno many ppl not having heating issue... S2 s so thin that heat has too dissipate thru somewhere so it uses the camera region... Try using the phone with low brightness it might be helpful also try KI4(correct me if i m wrong!!) modem. I din try that modem yet...

Try pulling the battery for 5 minutes to let it cool, then replace it. You can also try under clocking to 800 /1000 mhz to save some battery and not let it go to 1200mhz

Thanks very much for your replies plz note the below
* i'm a big fan of Siyah Kernel and i tried most of its versions giving me the same result.
* i tried to make the device lock itself on the max usage with 800 MHz
* the battery's Temp is about 35 C
* i remember that 2.3.5 was the only version that i have which is not having this issue.
* it seems that everyone tried something and it worked for him but everybody's something is not working with me.
* the overheat issue is in arc and arc s too
* the other issue that am living in Egypt and Temp pretty high.

i flashed the modem KH3 and nothing happens i did down clocking the processor and nothing happens
This phone is stupid sometimes. Just sat in my pocket for the last hour doing nothing.wifi off
The battery drops from 89% to 65%
I take the phone out and its super hot
Says 49 degrees which isnt dangerous but it is very noticable in the pocket and to hold. and the chart says the phone was awake through that whole time without the screen on.
As soon as I start using the phone again it starts to cool down.
Bit annoying how often this happens.
i never had this issue on gingerbread
is there a fix for it?
Install BetterBatteryStats and check which program causes the wakelock. While ago Google Chrome was known to create this issue.
