I have installed the padawan jb v2 on my samsung At&t note. Everything has been pretty smooth up until a week ago. My phone has been running hot lately. I thought it was from overclocking ( although the phone has been overclocked for some time now) so I downgraded the overclocking. I'm still having the issue. Any thoughts or ideas? Also it's eating up battery life now. I'm pretty new at all this stuff and reading and trying to learn as much as possible. Thanks again guys.
All phones get hot the more you use it the hotter it gets the more it eats battery just give it a break or deal with the heat.

Do you have betterbattery stats installed? It will allow you to see if something is keeping the cpu from clocking down.

Im new to this phone, came from the incredible, on that phone i could clock sense 1.075 and aosp 1.113. What is a safe speed that is stable on this phone? Thanks for the help!

Safe is stock clock speeds. Overclock is different for each individual device produced. Only way to find your devices limits is to test them carefully.
I OC'd up to 1.5 for a while but honestly, I barely saw an appreciable difference in performance
it was pretty stable though!
I've been using setCPU to underclock while the screen is off and keep the speed from dropping under .7 while the screen is on, but not OCing at all...stable, snappy, and I'm getting a few extra battery hours to boot.
Thanks for the replies, ill play around with it.

I've took mine to 1.9

pointless to OC. i am under-clocking at 768mhz max/245mhz min lagfree and is flies
I ocd, then backed it down to normal. The difference in speed was minimal, difference in battery was muy grande!

1.2 is probably a safe speed for most tbolts. I personally don't oc though. No need.

as stated above there really isn't any performance gain when overclocking I ran at 1.6 for a few days and never noticed a difference so i dropped it back to normal and again noticed no change. I think the real gains in performance are made by installing a rom.
Anyone's EVO get super hot after a little web browsing? I mean literally after about 5 minutes this thing is on fire. I'm rooted running viper's 1.2.1.
I haven't noticed it getting hot when browsing but definitely catches fire if using the camera for more than a few minutes.

I haven't used the camera that much yet. I didn't realize there was another thread that addressed this issue, and when reading some of the comments, I guess we do need to consider that this is a device running a dual core 1.5Ghz processor, so it's gonna generate heat. I'm using an app to monitor the phone temp. I guess I'll wait and see.
experience this on my gnex... was quite abnormal coming from a my epic... where there as no heat generated unless i Overclocked. Its just how these dual cores work especially at such a high frequency. You could try changing governors though. What is is your gov anyways? I switched from interactive to Ondemand and the heat instantly vanished. Can even use while on the charger and it barely gets warm.

So I got my s3 running stable at 1.7 I have noticed the temp went into the 80c range few times but I'm guessing a phone of this tech has built in throttling safe guards?
So is it safe to leave it like this for the rest of its life now. Anyone else keep their phone overclocked for day to day usage?

thermal safeguards in place from what I've read.
the life of your device might be shortened but hey should last 2 years at least .
me personally 1.2ghz I like having a battery last for ages.

Hi guys my galaxy s3 gets over heated while using it
in battery drain analyzer it says 41 °c as temp
is this normal?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
What claims your phone to be overheated?
Only that app or are there other indicators such as the phone being sluggish (it clocks down on overheat)
- Are you in a warm/hot region?
- Is the phone in a full body protective case
- are you overvolting / overclocking cpu or gpu?

I had the same problem with the galaxy s3 the bottom of my phone would always over heat and I think it happens to others my guess would he samsungs kernel there stock because after I flashed my phone and switched to a different kernel my phone quit over heating on the bottom

If you're running games that'll happen. That's where the chips are. If you're getting that while the phone is idle or something use watchdog or better battery stats to find what it is and stop it.

Is it just me or does this phone completely suck. Dont get me wrong I love android and Samsung. But this phones battery is terrible o have to charge twice a day and as soon as I play any game it heats up and drains all the battery. And everything is slow and laggy. I know its an older phone but this is rediculous. I am running stock att jelly bean

The phone is actually pretty good, especially for its age...
You really need to ditch the stock ROM and try something like Cooked. It will perform better AND have better battery life to boot. There will be nothing laggy about it
Also, keep in mind that playing games will drain the battery quickly on any phone regardless of the ROM.

This was the best/fastest phone in the history of the world 2 years ago. Jesus Christ. What does the world owe you.

This.
And, a few people have even stated they still like their SII better than their SIII or SIV.
Check out this battery life. This is on SHOstock3 with lite usage.
I still don't get the fuss about battery life when there are removable batteries ...
Definitely not normal to not last a whole day unless that battery is old. Either case, get some new batteries.

Don't like your phone? Send it to me. I will give you fifty bucs for it.

True. This is very light use. No gaming. Not a lot of screen time even. But it illustrates that the kind of problem that you described is due to firmware, and not the phone. There is a thread in this forum titled Known identified battery drainers that can help you understand how to correct battery issues. Part of the problem can be the rom, or more specifically the kernel, but there are other possible issues to consider. You can configure your phone to get very good battery life, even with heavy usage.
