[solved] Lupus kernel overheating - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

A while earlier i tried the lupus kernel. but from the moment i boot, the phone starts heating like mad. I didn't get a rom just got stuck in the boot process So i flashed stock with lupus kernel. as soon as it turned on, battery would heat up. Baattery life was crazy ( like 4 hours or so).I didn't have wifi or data then ( long story), so i don't know if its governor based problem.
Thing is i wanna know whether it was caused by the governor and whether changing it would help the issue.

Have you overclocked your CPU....

I didn't have an over clocking app then. I didn't get data or wifi. Read it fully

Depending on how the developer set up lupus kernel, it may boot up fully overclocked, which could be as high as 2.2 GHz. Next time, make sure you have something like incredicontrol (from the play store) loaded onto your device and then flash over Lupus kernel. As soon as it boots, use
incredicontrol to set the cpu max freq to something safe for your phone.
With lupus kernel you will need to flash the wifi modules with CWM recovery in order to get wifi to work.

Wait a second.
If I take an nandroid backup, flash lupus and restore it will it work Or will it show errors.

Incredicontrol is from here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ontrol&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd
Lupus wifi modules are from here: http://dds.vigaas.com/kernels/LuPuS_kernel/Version3/ You should download both the modules zip and the ti wlan zip and flash them both. One contains the stuff for wifi and the other stuff for things like OTG.
I am not sure what you are asking about with the nandroid back up. If the back up is made by the same version of Recovery then it should restore with out errors. For example if the kernel that made the back up had CWM v5 and Lupus kernel has CWM v5 then you should be OK. But if your version of Lupus kernel has CWM v6 or TWRP, then you are likely to have issues with the restore.

I think there is a downloard link for Lupus kernel with TWRP, it is the same link where you get the modules. I believe there is also a dual version (has both cwm and twrp). Check the OP for Lupus kernel.
I think you will have issues with trying to restore a back up made with CWMv6 using a kernel with CWMv5. Might work the other way around,
but I am not completely sure. Certainly, the back up made with CWM and TWRP are not compatible.

Re: [Q] Lupus kernel overheating
So ill just have to flash a fresh rom?
Can I create an update. Zip of my apps and data with Ti backup FREE. Or can I do it manually?

I am not sure if you need to flash a new ROM or not. It will depend on whether the kernel and the ROM are compatible. As long as you are staying with ICS based ROMs, I would first try to flash the new ROM with out factory reseting. This way you won't lose all your apps that are in
/data. So I would:
1. Flash new kernel
2. Boot into the new kernel's recovery
3. Flash the ROM that you want
4. Flash the modules that you need for the new kernel (these have to be flashed after the ROM is flashed)
5. Flash anything else you like.
6. Wipe cache and dalvik cache
7. Boot into ROM.
I rarely do a factory reset unless I am changing different versions of Android (ICS to JB for example) or if the new ROM is behaving badly. If I have to, I typically get all the apps back from the play store. Often times the play store does it automatically, but you can do it really fast from your computer. I also use Flashbackups: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951478 but I had to change the update-binary to get it to work properly on my device.

Titanium Backup is also good if you are new to android btw I think in some roms wiping dalvik-cache and cache just before flashing causes bootloop so I think he should first check without wiping them, then wipe if necessary.

Just delete the first three lines from it or send me your updater script and I'll do it for u... But still if it doesn't gets fixed the zip might be corrupt and u may have to download it again...

Re: [Q] Lupus kernel overheating
No the zip file is okay. I used it with CWM with no problem
I don't know what you told about the deleting three line? Could you elaborate.
I don't like Ti backup (free version) as it takes very long to restore. Trying to find a method to create update. Zip of Ti manually
