Does this problem problem always happens? I'm doubting if buying this cellphone or not. The problem of the heat makes me doubt.
What do you think about that? It happens always?
Thank you for the information.
No Problem
I have a WT19a and I can say it heats up a little just in games when overclocking is done. the battery is around 40 º C temperature. It also relies heavily on the country in which it lives.Here is my country lives in tropical temperature then normal for my living with an average temperature of 30 ° C. . Is quiet because it can not hurt not. The good thing is that he amazes the humidity inside the unit too.
I am very satisfied with my unit.
WT19a GB ROM Original Version 2.3.4
I have Xperia Mini Pro and I also encountered overheat problem. Phone's charging stops at 70% after 12-14 hrs and it becomes extremaly warm, also touchscreen didn't work properly. This manual helped me ^^
But if we us that manual you said, the problem gets solved? or it returns sometimes?
It only happens in "extreme" situtions like games, and big processing? Or overheat happens when you ar in "regular" activity?
Thank you.
On newer smartphones, hard usage(gaming for example) does increase the temperature and it is completely normal, however I have never experienced problems with touch screen.
Long time ago, I also used custom kernel to overclock and then play, temperature went higher indeed(battery was over 40 degrees Celsius), but I still didn't have any problems, even though I didn't play for long time, but only for 20 minutes, to prevent damage to mainboard.
Phone is Live with Walkman WT19i.
But i can see that most of you use the WT19i cellphone. I think i'm going to buy the SK17i. Would I have the same problems?
Thank you for helping me

Nope because I own an Xperia Mini Pro
Sometime,there is a little problem with back button when you have many application running at once.The problem is when you press back button,it delay the back function,example I run many application,then I press back button nothing happen,after 3-4 seconds my phone vibrate and goes back...but I assume this as normal and about the overheat : Every phone does and my phone never ever got touchscreen problem when it is overheat
I have a Xperia mini pro and have no problems related to the touchscreen, concerning the warmth problem it works as expected, and as all my phpnes did so far...then again I dont paly alot aside from emulators...regards

hey guys, Z2 was launched this week in Brazil so i am looking to replace my lg g2 for z2. but i saw many complaints about people not being able to use the camera when is hot outside. even after 5 pictures the camera got warm and shutdown. i will never use 4k video, but i plan to use the max 16:9 manual resolution, ia mode and 1080p 60fps. in my g2 i always recorded long videos and never got a camera shutdown, even tried yesterday recording 4k with a mod and after 5 minutes video was saved and nothing happened. and people with this problem live in places with good temperatures like 20c, here in my city usually is 30c or 35c so i am a bit worried if i will buy a very expensive phone without being able to use the camera. so this was already fixed or is hardware problem?
My country's temperature is also at 30c. The camera will get hot, but I've never experienced a shutdown before

Same here, want to know before waste my "Dilmas".
In newer models yes
Sony also tried to fix on the firmware side so old model devices have less heat

Mine is from batch 14w22 which I believe is a newer build and I've gotten a shutdown notice due to heat and I was only using 1080p. I was using the filters effect which was probably resource taxing.
Update, I am on firmware 402. I believe there is an update called 438 out now or soon.

Freeze overheat control service
I live in a very hot city, and it's almost impossible to use AR effects. 4k video at least works for a couple of minutes, but AR effects closes as soon as I try to use it due to camera overheating. I was wondering if the temperature service was disabled... If this issue would be solved. So I froze the overheating control service using titanium backup ( Overheat control - com.sonyericsson.psm.sysmonservice). And it worked! My camera stopped to force closing due to overheating. I think it's a software problem, the temperature level trigger to shut down the camera must be have settled too low,, if the phone was too hot, it should turn it off entirely, not just the camera. Well... My camera is working fine now. But I think this is not a safe solution. I guess if for some reason my Z2 get really hot, with overheating control disabled, it would not be powered off to prevent damage and my phone would be toasted. But I think there will be no trouble to freeze overheating control before using camera and activate it later... That's really annoying, but it's better than lose a moment cause your camera refuses to work due to supposed overheat.
*just to remember... In order to freeze overheat control service you need to be rooted
SONY Xperia Z2 D6543 4.4.2. 17.1.2.A.0.314 stock ROM rooted
I have downclocked z2 with mpdecision and multicore powersave. No overheating issues during 4k recording.

I just got my Z2; Ambient temp around 22c; had to really work it to get a thermal shutdown; switching from multi burst camera to 4k to generate the heat. It was the stupid CGI Dinosaur nonsense that did it in the end. I can't see it being an issue with normal point and shoot.
If you find this hot, try brave frontier for 5 mins. It made my phone reboot cause it was to hot to operate

I had a problem with the overheating issue too,but while playing games - Compared my Z2 with Iphone 5 playing Dungeon hunter 4 - ew my phone overheated like crazy at the upper right corner where is the CPU.. ( no overheating at all from the Iphone.. - -) And another thing is that the glue holding the camera class circle is abit spilled at some places (you need to get closer to see it)...im not sure the overheating coused that .. but while gaming or vrecording the phone overheats alot.
Hi guys. I am considering replacing my HTC Sensation with Z2. With Sensation, I use to take lots of pictures when I am on some trip. Generally, I am speaking about taking 50+ pictures when I am on trip (ZOO, castle, rocks...). Can Z2 manage this? Can you help me please? Thank you

Well mate, I don't know what to tell you, some people are reporting that its impossible for them to use cam at all, not only 4k but for taking pictures,
for myself I have never experienced over heating problems with normal usage, said that i meant on using camera for taking photos or videos which arent in 4k mode. If you're gonna use it as camera, I strongly suggest not to play games on it just before you start heavy using camera for example.
Where I live, the temperature was over 39 degrees of C, I recorded 4k outdoors for more then 8 mins, took lots of (+20) pictures in nature and all and never had problem, just don't leave it direct on sun, it gets very hot and it becomes probably useless,
you only have to take 'care' with those kind of things, other then that you're ok.
In my case, my z2 would certainly manage that kind of usage without a problem.
So here is some info i gathered from 5 Xperia Z2s
Device 2 and 3 match my 1st Z2 and my replacement Z2, however i managed to get 21 mins of 4k recording with my 2014w22 replacement device
Good thing ive got a bunch of freinds with Xperia Z2s and xperias in general
Device 1:
purchase date: 15th of August
41mins -4k rec
Temp after rec:61c
batch: 2014w29
Device 2:
purchase date: 8th of June
3mins:59sec -4k rec
Temp after rec:72c
batch: 2014w17
Device 3:
Purchase Date: 31st of June
5mins:33sec -4k rec
temp after rec: 58c
batch: 2014w22
So here is something ive knoticed, new xperias around w30 or newer are flawless. there are people here in XDA who can prove that too :/
edit- forgot to mention, devices 1 and 3 didnt have any heating issues under normal ussage
Just tried 4k recording. Stopped it manually at 10:00. Can't imagine me using it in the near future. Flickering screen indoors with tl-tubes, and I won't be buying an 4k screen anytime soon .
Mind you though, it's around 18 degrees C here. I can imagine the phone quiting on me a lot sooner when it's 30C. Also tried AR, no heating problems so far.
But, when it was 30+ degrees, the camera did shut down after 5 minutes of testing the white balance. But that was before I installed .314. So I would have to re-test that. Unfortunately there's a fat chance we will reach those temps before next year.

I got w17, manually stopped my recording around 10 mins when I was outside, ambient temperature about 35,36 degrees.
My D6543 is w22. It's working fine now after freeze overheat control service. No more camera closing due to overheat. I could not even start AR effect before and I was not playing games or any hard usage before trying. 4k video is not an issue for me cause I won't use it. But before freezing overheat control, sometimes my camera refuses to take even simple photos....
Ambient temperature: 28°
Battery temp: 36°
CPU temp: 44°
Now let's start AR effects (overheat control service is disabled)
After 7 minutes recording
Battery: 47°
CPU: 72°
Temperatures seems to be stable, they were not increasing since minute 3....
Now 4k recording...
Before
Battery: 43°
CPU: 54°
After 4 minutes
*using internal storage
Battery: 53°
CPU: 84°
I accidentally stopped recording. But it seems it was still getting hotter.

The phone works almost perfect, but there is still few flaws... I hope it can be resolved on future firmware updates.
The most annoying is the random heat, mine doesn't heat up when charged... but it does heat up on random condition. The most extreme heat I got is when I watch 20 minutes high-res VR videos with a cardboard. I almost drop the phone when I take it out from cardboard because it's too hot when I touch it, I think it's like 70 degree
CPU-z and AIDA64 also always report extreme 70+ degree on pa_therm1, although phone is idle. I've googled this and seems that many owners also have this problem too.
The second is auto-brightness sometimes will screw up gyro and auto rotate. When the problem occur, I had to turn off auto-brightness.
I was on ROM 7.1.8, updated to 7.2.3 didn't solve this problem. Then I moved to AOSP 5.11, the problems are still there
How is the aosp ROM for daily use and how much free internal space do u get using this ROM..my device heated up once wen viewing vr video but then is went back to normal and haven't had any issues after viewing vr videos

Check if your phone is genuine.I dont have such problem with heating.Mine is 32 GB variant.Do a search and you must try to know if your phone is genuine or not.I have heard that mediatek version would have heating issues.Check phone specs with AIDA,CPUz,Antutu.

Hi! i'm Boris.
On my amazfit pace, since 1 week, my compass doesn't work anymore, and that's why my elevation gain sticks at 0..... I never let it down, i made a factory reset, update, restart... etc... nothing!!!!!
Somebody as an idea what going wrong???!!!
Thx for your answers.
Do you have a magnetic wristband?

No!!!! It works 3 months and suddenly nothing..... Is it possible that the MTB shocks break or weakens the compass? My Elevation Gain also sticks at 0, there is a relation??
THX for your answer fzelle!
Yes, when the compass isn't working, elevation isn't as well.
As it is not a mechanical part, I doubt that you can break it with riding MTB.
Tried a restart?
Yes... shut down-restart, factory reset, smartwatch and apps update....
Maybe there is a way to disable the compass after a bad setting?
It's a strange situation....
...... my air pressure is also sticking on "loading" (outside in an open space)!!!!
Maybe pressure captor's hole is clogged? It's the small hole on the side at 9H, isn't it?!?!
Too much suggestions...... i need to understand.....

Same problem three months and GPS and altitude damaged
The compass does not show the altitude
Enviado desde mi SAMSUNG-SGH-I537 mediante Tapatalk
Same happened to me and I don't know if it's related to a high battery draining (less than a day)
Can it be Software related?
the same here! battery and compass issue
I'm having the same issue. Did reset and using official FW but compass is not working and battery dies really fast. I'm outside of china and the return fees are quite high. Have anyone tried to fix it by themself? I do not have the best experience with Gearbest support.
Hi all,
I have the same situation, few hours of battery and compass stuck on 0°.
This is my experience: after a month since the purchasing, suddenly, the battery started to last max 8 hours (it was 5 days with continuous HR monitor before! ).
I asked on my custom rom Telegram group about this and the general answer was that it was due to the charger I used, too powerful for the watch, and that I had to use exclusively my laptop's USB.
Little by little, it went up to 35 hours and I was wondering if it may be resolved with a battery calibration (if exists).
Didn't noticed the compass issue at that moment, but now that I found this thread I see a correlation.

That is complete and utter BS.
It has nothing to do with too powerfull, what happens with most cheap chargers is that they have spikes in their output.
To prevent that, just use a powerbank, that's the safes option.
same problem
I also have the same problem compass and barometric pressure are also not working
SOLVED
I have some trouble, n its solved.
I have try to reset many times, not work. Try to downgrade firmware(cause i use latest), not work.
Try using small magnet(from refrigerator door accesoris) with power is on, not work.
I, ve given UP. just try to charge the wacth on flat position, try using small magnet with power off.
I didnt cek after that, but when i wear the battery life normal again, then i check compas is normaly again.
u can try
note : rotate the magnet on watch
For me, it started with new update. Anyone else?
Hello,
i own this watch and made many workout
First of all i have no localisation pb it is really precise but at the begining the altitude is like crazy (on a workout it found me at 880m for 10 min then in 5 seconds it drops me to 285m then tracking seems good after.
https://photos.google.com/u/0/photo/AF1QipNWiUn-XDxyBPI2ZB8CtPbK0mCzAg6IDo118mqt
many off my workout are like that: start altitude is to high then comes to normal in the 10 first mins.
i tried the altimeter app and i was surprised to see it is moving up and down even not moving after GPS fixed do you see that also?. ( more than 10m )
perhaps i have a defective altimeter
Thanks to share your data
No Amazfit device has an "altimeter", because the sensor (barometer) cannot be calibrated. It's used to detect air pressure change so it should know if you are going up or down. If altitude is bad, probably you have bad GPS signal. You can try to turn off the watch for about 15s to reset sensors, maybe it helps...

Oh it seams you're right I see only barometer sensor in description. You're saying it's not calibratable but when you go on barometer app then altitude you can set a value here. Seems not doing anything...
Altitude is calculated via GPS, that's why it's not reliable.
I have a stratos 2, and the same problem.
For me is a problem about the algorithm... software.
If you notice, the number of elevation gain and elevation loss seems correct. The graphic is wrong. For me, every drop on gps signal, the new lock afect the absolute altitude, and them, the barometric sensor starts to draw, in the graphic, the variations in another elevation. Totaly wrong.
I complained some times. Whitout sucess. Last week they release a new firmware for stratos 2, after 6 months without update, and the problem is still there.
Orignaly works perfect.
Please, send a e-mail to amazfit, try to do they understant that the watch has a problem.
I hope that you, new stratos user, have more luck whith amazfit.
