[Q] Asus PadFone issues - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I've been using the PadFone since the release date. After the new update (9.18.8.41) I noticed the PadFone starts heating up when playing games (any game), with other applications it'll be fine.
Is anyone else having this problem too? Trying to narrow down if it's just my device or the update.
Cheers

It was not heating up before the update. I played let say Big Win Soccer before the update it was fine. After the update playing it will overheat the phone causing it to switch itself off.

I think it's normal
each one of my current and previous Android phones used to heatup when I play games or HD content!! I currently own GNex and it's the master of heat

Did it heat up to the point where the phone switches off? This is after about 10-20minutes of gameplay

because it dont have custom firmware or custom kernal, that's the problems

Limited use and still fairly warm

Hello!
So I'm running Lite'ning Rom v1.3 and I'm noticing the phone getting pretty warm after doing pretty minimal things like browsing web-sites with flash content being 'on demand' (no, more than just the heat coming from my hands). But also, I can't really run anything graphically intensive. I've heard that it's not currently possible to run Dungeon Defenders, which is sad. But I've tried a few very common gameloft games: Tom Clancy ones, Asphalt, Nova 2, etc with no luck. Either it displays a black screen after intro videos, or it promptly crashes to homescreen, also after intro videos. Oh, and another thing: battery life has been a lot less than I was expecting. I'm coming to this phone after having read dozens of stellar reviews that raved about how excellent the battery life is. So far I'd say it's ... okay. Not great, just okay. It'll BARELY get me through a day if I hold myself back.
Perhaps I should try running a new ROM? Or is there something else to blame?
Any input would be appreciated. Thanks guys.
Yet another my battery is warm thread .
What temperature .

Hello.
My phone went warm on stock ke2 rom. But since I'm using angelom 1.4 its solved.
For battery drain plz try to reset battery stats. Some games are not yet fixed by their devs to run on our phone. Check out the "working games" thread on this forum.
Hope I could help.

Alright, I'll give that ROM a try. Thanks!

ICS Screen flickering bug.

Hi,
After ICS update I noticed a very annoing and frequent bug.
It was described by other users in these subforums, and factory reset can not help it.
It is difficult to describe, as it lasts for maybe one tenth of a second and I can't find a proper word for this as I'm not a native English speaker.
But I recorded a video, so you can see this.
It's like a single flickerring in a shape of triangle in left bottom part of the active window or entire screen - a short white blink.
In the video I show it happening when pressing Menu for Recent Tasks, but it happens in other occasions too.
When playing video there are also some 1/10 second distortions - difficult to describe, but I suspect they have something in common with this bug...
Let's hope Sony will see this and fix this bug.
I really wonder how such a bug could have left after the development stage. I, as a regular user, have noticed this after a couple of hours of playing with the tablet. What about Sony testers?
It's annoying!! its happening to me also, mines are black, and they happen in the left side of the tablet screen. :/
Not seeing flickering on mine yet.
Im just here because i am looking for a system dump to port things but it is a common issue on the Asus Transformer on ICS as well It is not a device specific bug but rather one in google's code. One fix is to only have <5 apps running at a time
Mine does not show this flickering .
Also....this is a development section of the forum . Your question should have been posted in the Tablet S General section
This is happening to a lot of us. It has already been discussed in the General section under the ICS First Impressions topic.

Yes I have the flickering, and it happens a lot using recent apps on the homescreen.

This is very useful info. Thank you!!!!
I had it a little yesterday but it's gone today
Got it too but its not that annoying,
It does not happen all the time its just an google thing,
It will not damage anything but if you think its to annoying then you could try
to use a CPU speed up "Dont apply EXTREME" that will higher the chance to
crash your device, i think the tegra chip is getting to much info to read,
so its a sort of buffer overrun maby speed up app will lower the flickering

You can't over clock the kernel.. We don't have a kernel which supports that yet

I have flickering too. It's probably due to low ram at certain points. Even with the flickering on occasion, the recent apps list is MUCH faster than on Honeycomb.
the flickering only happens on my tablet when it's in the cradle on clock mode and it stops completely if I use a regular wallpaper instead of a live wallpaper
To me flickering happens when I open recent apps on the launcher or when I ve a popup (inside the application, on internet etc.) with a dark trasparent effect under. The same graphical problem turn up heavily with the youtube application or sometime using keyboard.
It's very very annoying this problem. It doesn't limit the use of the tablet, which is very fast and smooth, but simply ruins something which, simply, would be perfect without it.
It will be interesting create a class action, a mail, with the signature of who wants a resolution of this problem, to send to Sony for forcing it to realize a solution.

Let me retract my previous statement. Since I've rooted ICS and have been using it more and I do see screen flickering occasionally.
I can't say that I see any performance improvement with ICS though.
http://www.engadget.com/2012/02/26/lg-optimus-4x-hands-on/
25 seconds into the video, you can see it happen on the new LG optimus 4X, i think it may be something to do with ICS.
If you people bothered to read the entire thread you would see that it has happened to other tablets. Not only the Sony. ASUS has this problem as well.
Read the thread and you will see
Yup ISC bug, first i didn't give a shhh.. but now its getting pretty annoying i hope it will be better with 4.0.4. Wich runs super smooth on my Samsung Galaxy S2 in tablet mode.

Dont play too many intensive games, and if you have a cover take it off to let it breathe

[q] heating issue !!

My Samsung Galaxy SII Heats up a lot in my pocket and gets switched off automatically. It Heats up too much. If any one of you have expierienced such issue then please give your suggestions !
My phone goes up to 50C, but never turned off tho.
You can try installing KH3 modem, as I saw some people said it fixed their overheat problem. I just installed it now and will see how it goes.
Yours,
Amiroslo
Look at whats running in the background. bbs will help aswell. Modem shouldnt really make much difference.
Heating issue
Its a common issue amonf S2 i9100..i guess its one of many issues discussed over this forum..
1. It can happen because of a Kernel that u have installed that is not going with ur ROM.
2. It could be due to some app that is sucking up your battery and intun causing heating in ur processor..i mean some game..weather widget..Etc..
I would suggest that u can browse thru this forum for the solutions that fit u best..
i think its a kernel or some latest App that u have installed latest..as problem 4 sure..:angel:
I am having S2 with ASNET MIUI V5 3.7.19 now and b4 tried several ROMS..When ever this heating stuff happened it was only when i played heavy games or while on wifi or data usage..dat too heating was very minimal..battery temp never crossed 44 degree Celsius..
please chk on the latest apps or widgets that are running in background in ur mobile..it ll probably help u in identifying the issue..
Hope it helps u in some way.
Cheers mate :good::good:

Hi guys i have a ??? What is the maximun temp running s2 sorry mh bad english
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
About 90c will kill it mine runs at 60c quite a bit.
Mostly it is the Media scanner issue of heat up. The major culprit of jb roms. I am too fed up of this media scanner.
4.2.2 has been reported to have it resolved. Still ages away for our s2.
Well My S2 does the same, I think its the only drawback of samsung galaxy s2 i9100
Flash media scaner fix. Mine heats up from what I do with it. For me heat is normal.
Andrew what do you do for it to sit at 60?
Sent from a galaxy far, far away
Downloading many roms. Dont sit at 60c all the time. Some games push it too. Normal running its at 20-30c

Redmi note 4x overheating due to constant disk writing.

Hi guys.
I have had my Redmi note 4 for just over a year now and about 2 weeks ago my phone was very hot on the top area of the screen. I downloaded simple System monitor and my cpu temp was around 80 degrees Celsius. I also noticed on the app it shows my phones was constantly spiking to 100% disk writing. So I did a hard reset and restored my phone from a backup and it was fine for about a week now its overheating again with the same disk writing issue. I also noticed in the last few weeks I have been getting a lot of dropped calls on either of the dual Sims no matter how good or bad my signal was.
Any assistance will be appreciated.

Which ROM are you using and which Apps are using most battery/CPU?
Maybe you should also install and run an antivirus app on your phone

I am running android version 6.0 and Miui 9.6
I have booted the phone in safe mode and it still overheats so it doesn't seem to be an app causing the issue. I also installed Avg and it didn't find any problems. The cpu usage is low when the problem occurs, the issue is that it has constant disk writing spikes which I assume is the main problem, but there is no way to see what it is writing.
Hi Sekzi, I am having the same issue as you are, in fact, I wasn't sure where to look for the problem tbh, after reading your post I checked and It is doing the exact same thing. I have the Mi Note 4 Redmi and I removed the SD card just in case, no change! Was about to look for a custom ROM to install but I would rather wait for Miui official 10 release hoping that would solve the issue. Please share any updates you might have, thanks!
I also have same issue pls someone fix this bro as fast as possible cause I can't play pubg until this will be fixed

Clean flash? If yes then combine with Franco kernel
Install greenify, Xposed framework modules like coolify, amplify
Sorry, snapdragon or mediatek processor?
