Hello, is there a way to make phone not to overheat on stock rom? I am using latest software, and the phone overheats on high tasks or when charging.

Just a little process of elimination on the overheating issues.
To be clear: I don't have the issue of continuous overheating when nothing seems active.
I do have a problem with it overheating when playing games or streaming.
Also the overheating and drain is so bad that the battery will drain even while plugged in during this time.
so, do you have the same problem?
To keep the results consistent please test with this scenario:
Play Asphalt 7 until it heats up noticeably. Then plug it in and note your charge level. Now play some more and see if your battery drains.
I think the overheating and faster battery drain is normal.
For example if the CPU and GPU need 10W to render such intensive game at 24fps and your charger can supply only 5W (5 Volts * 1 Amps) then you have battery drain, not charge.
Try charging your phone with charger that can supply 2A (usually phone chargers are 1A), then you might actually charge your phone while playing this lovely game.
The whole point of this poll is to determine what is"normal" so we don't have to come up with theories.
BTW: I have never seen this happen on an iPhone or Android as manufacturers usually engineer their components to accommodate.
I haven't played Asphalt, but some other games, and yes, the phone overheated, there was no battery drain, BUT the battery was charging significantly slower.
Using 3rd party navigation apps like "Navigation 3D" and "GPS Voice Navigation" overheat a lot the phone and the battery drains in a couple of hours from full charge.
Also with my 500mAh car charger the phone drains with these apps.
Overheating for me is when the phone gets so hot that it will shutdown to prevent damage.. or is damaged...
Did your phone gets hot or is it really overheating???
Phones can get really hot when you combine some of this things:
-Charge
-use wifi
-use heavy apps (navigation) or gaming
-stream or watch videos
-have your screen on full brightness
-use it in heavy direct sunlight (like in the car)
the more things you combine simultaneously the hotter your phone will get...

According to the poll so far: 40% of phones don't overheat and 20% don't have the voltage drain.
If 100% of phones behaved the the same then it would be easy to accept that this is normal behavior.
But I'll keep sending mine back until I get one that works.
the term overheating implies that the device stop functioning
running hot would be a less confusing and more appropriate terms. All electronic devices run hot under prolonged load, laptops, tablets, ipods, it's par for the course.
Obviously I didn't mean that malfunctioning is normal. I agree "Running hot" is more appropriate term..

What I'm trying to do is provide a baseline acceptable level so we know what overheating is.
I already know that something is wrong when the provided charger cannot charge the phone and the and the heat level is uncomfortable.
Overheating is: anything that is beyond the designed run temperature threshold -which we don't know but can discern through collaboration.
Well through logical deduction on could come to the following conclusion. Phone does not charge with provided charger, phone get uncomfortably warm, there is only one thing in the phone that can generate that heat and that is the battery. It is a Lithium Polymer battery and they are notorious in any device for having workmanship issues. Since it won't charge that points to the battery even more. I would take it in and have them change the battery since it is a major undertaking for a regular user. Or just exchange the device. Just tell them you afraid it is going to cause a fire.
Hi, I´m new, my phone have a weird problem.
Recently I installed Pandawan Rom V2, like 3 days ago I update to V3. The problem is that, the battery is in like 85%, the phone is with data connect and suddenly the phone restarts, after the boot restart again, and when the phone starts the battery is in 1%. This only happens when the data is on, or I´m playing. The phone in normal use, sms, some calls, or in stand by have a normal consume of battery. So my question is, I need a new battery or is a software problem?
After 5-10 min with the phone off, I turn on the phone and the battery is charge a little bit low from when the phone restart the first time.
P.D. I did the installation following the Pandawan Rom thread instruction.
Sorry for my bad english.
Same thing happens to me, mine happens a lot when using Chromeand watching embedded Youtube videos. My phone has been running CM10, it doesnt matter if it's the latest nightlies or stable. I even tried CyanFox and it still does it. My phone could be at 100% battery then it crashes and shows a low battery at reboot and shuts down. I have to connect a charger to even get it to fully boot.
Sounds like time for a new battery.

How old are the batteries? Is there any swelling of the batteries (not perfectly flat)? The apps mentioned are indeed battery intensive and would effect a marginal battery.
Hi guys, I have a problem with my xperia ray.
It started with the battery during less and less, to the point it barely lasted 7 hours with normal use.
Now it drains in a couple hours (with the phone off it last around 6).
I was using Xperia Ultimate HD ROM so I figured to flash the phone to official stock ICS, it keeps happening (my phone is locked bootloader so I didn`t touch the kernel).
I have also tried changing the battery (have tried with 3 differents) and the charger.
Also, the phone overheats A LOT while it is charging (and when it is not charging sometimes it overheats pretty high).
So... this has to be some f***ing hardware problem, right?
Thanks.
Hello my S9+ started to heat so much. About 1-2 weeks ago I upgraded to android pie and after that its startes to heat. When I charge to phone its going up until 50°C and ita stops charging. Its not fast charging. Even now when Im charging and using its 45°C.
What should I do? How can I fix this? Its scary that its heating so much. I tried safe mode to be sure about application problem but its still heating in Safe mode too.
Hard reset bro. Give it a try!
its still heating and fast charging seems to be not workinf because there is no estimated time when charging and accubattery shows low mA when charging
Downgrade Then
No matter which ROM I flash, my phone's battery gets depleted over the night. I can't even see what's causing the drain as by morning the phone runs out of juice and gets switched off. The phone was running fine when I was using xiaomi.eu ROM. I recall flashing the latest firmware and an AOSP based ROM; since then the phone gets way too hot and battery drain ensues.
Right now I have ArrowOS (Android 11) flashed and face the same issues. I'm thinking about downgrading to the last stable firmware that's available here (https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/archive/firmware/mido/) in the hope that it would solve the problem.
Is this safe? Is there any way I can solve the battery drain issue? Please help me!
P.S. My phone has stock kernel that came with the phone out of the box.

There really is no reason why this should happen on all custom ROMs.
So either your battery is dying or one of your apps is draining your battery

Try calibrating your phone's battery.
steps-
1. fully charge your phone keeping it switched off.
2. turn on phone and leave it on standby (DO NOT USE IT AT ALL)
3. after it switches off automatically, plug it in again (KEEP IT SWITCH OFF)
repeat this 2-3 times
Also, post your battery log
If this doesn't works, either your battery is faulty or its issue with motherboard

I used AccuBattery to check the health of the battery; it says almost 93% which seems unlikely because I used this phone for almost two years continuously. Surprising thing is I have a Redmi 1S as well which I bought six years ago. It keeps chugging along fine and doesn't have any battery drain issues. If it weren't for the 1 GB RAM and accompanying sluggish performance I would be still using that as my backup.
Anyway, I'm gonna do what you suggested and see if it works. How do I get the battery log?
In terms of battery life, Zeelog's Android 10 with Kernel 3.18 is the best choice, for example, I have about 1-2% loss in flight mode in 24 hours, inactive with WLAN about 3-6% in 24 hours.
Do a clean install.
