No, nothing... fresh OS; just QCPU frequency and rootsh..

What's up with the camera?
Camera is not functioning. While opening it is kind of crashing saying
'Operation failed'
and thats when the Lens cover is open...
Otherwise it will stay in stand by mode as usual......

If I download large files, it gets warm..so.. meh..As long as it isnt at like 55-60 degrees dont worry about it I say!

Also, the temp in conky is batterytemp, replace the battery?

No it wouldnt have been me using thet browser stuff....
For me , even in idle stage it will be like 38-40.
While using 2G it is hitting 53... thats really bad right?
Battery cahrging on top of this is showing max temp-58
Tried with my friends BL-5J battery, no improvement then also


Is there any single step test to find it out wether this is due to hardware shorts or software probs.....?????

Maybe hardware damage then.

Could try underclocking.


Camera failed is to do with fcam drivers search on the forum for repair method.

$150 seems to be a standard price; just yesterday there was someone reporting the same quote from Nokia Service Center.

From casual reading your replies, I would say try another battery. It looks like your phone is fine on idle, but starts heating up when it draws a bit more power. Maybe the battery is on its last leg. If it were a more serious hardware problem like shortened pins, your device would not have worked at all.

Also, it seems to me that your perception of "hot" may be different from the rest of us. My phone tends to get up to about 43C when I am downloading a lot of files in modRana, for example. It is not what I would call "burning hot" though.

No I tried changing the battery.... Still the same prob.....
Iam used to the heating up while downloading from torrents, but this isnt exactly same... It is getting peaked above 55 . I have added the temp variations up above in this thread

Check if it's not due to high CPU load on idle, and if yes then check your word dictionaries are corrupt. At least _i_ had this issue.

This things should have to be ok after flashing, right??
I did a complete flashing.Now my phone is in service center
