Guest gouabafla Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 Since I installed Paul's r12 on my blade, it will become very hot at random times and the battery will run down in a very short time. I am very impressed with this release and don't want to change it, but I'd rather that my blade functioned as a mobile phone and not as a short lived pocket warmer (especially now that Spring is coming). Is this a known issue with a known fix? (Sorry if it is on the forums and I didn't find it). If it is not a known issue, could someone suggest how I should go about troubleshooting? Many thanks for advice and ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never had this problem on Paul's R12 - had pretty good battery life as I recall (comparable with Flibblesan's later Froyos) With intensive angry birds or watching films the battery would get warm, but I don't count that as random, personally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume that there is some rogue process going on that is using up the battery and causing the overheating, but I'm not sure how to diagnose that.

Guest tdroza Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 I had a problem where the Media Scan service was getting stuck and continually consuming 100% CPU. I think Media Scanner is a process that kicks in periodically and scans the SD card for new photos/music etc. It was causing the phone to get warm and the battery to run down in a couple of hours. I originally thought it was a problem with the battery until I installed System Panel which shows CPU and memory utilisation and I could see that the CPU never dropped below 95-100%. My guess is that there was a corrupt file on the SD card which was causing issues for the media scanner because when I reformatted the card it was fine. You issue may not be caused by the same process, but hopefully System Panel might help you to diagnose it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
