Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
My phone is really warm now ALL the time. Ever since the update. Has anyone else experienced this? It's really annoying

I really haven't noticed anything of the sort. Have you ran a process monitor to see if you have something stalled running in the background eating up lots of CPU?

Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
How can I go about checking that?
|
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
I don't notice a real big difference.
|
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
No, mine is fine and actually now is performing really well.

Yeah thats what I mean. Right now its okay but time to time even when it idle's it just gets significantly warm like a laptop. It was always really cold before the upadte

Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
no, nice and cool here
|
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
yes here so i am not the only one who notice that.

Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
mine gets warm often i dont know why. Plus the battery drains too fast sometimes when I leave my xchat online (wifi running) all night I often wake up to see the phone is switched off and wont boot again so I have connect to the charger and then boot (boot times are faster). I have to yet install some widget or app to see how the processor usage is.
There is one thing wrong too, my songs are just not getting listed in the media player 'all songs' list, none comes up there, I have to goto file manager each time and run the song from there. Same is happening to Photos, no photo in the 'photo' app is listing (shows empty). Over all features are nice but speed in general is just ok, not much faster. |
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
Yes, my n900 is warmer. I'm glad it's not just me.
Sounds like a few of us have something Unhelpful going on. Maybe time for a reflash. |
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
fwiw, i flashed my n900 with pr1.2.
|
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
it does get warmer now but i think its because of the temperature. it was 28 celcius just yesterday and in sunlight higher...here comes summer
|
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
mine is fine too !! try reflashing the emmc

run htop in terminal CN :D |
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
The first hours after update it was wery warm, perhaps thumbnailer-backup restoring etc could cause it.
After overclocked ulv, temp is nice. But system is full of lags, microb freezes randomly for several seconds (literally freezed, no scroll, no menus, only camkeycd working then) so vanilla time for me too. Hopefully it helps. |
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
I am curious how many people that are reporting various issues with PR 1.2 are doing OTA updates to systems that have seen heavy use since initial purchase? I did a clean firmware flash and have found the system to be very fluid and responsive without any major show stopper bugs.
|
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
I think the problem may be due to reindexing of photos and media, which keeps on running until all files have been indexed and therefore may cause both temperature increase and faster battery drain. Once it has finished, the problems should go away.
I noticed my N900 getting warmer, but just for the first day after upgrade. I checked by opening xterminal and running command top In the %CPU column there were high values for tracker-indexer and hildon-thumbnail. |
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
I installed Conky. Through that I found out that "apt-worker" takes a LOT of cpu time. Usually this happens when i open app manager, click Download, click All, and search for something, this thing starts and doesnt end for few minutes even if i'm not doing anything anymore. Pretty inefficient code it seems. Other then that, the usual trackerd service which used to take a lot of processor time in pr1.1 has more or less the same behavior it seems. Well i'v installed the processor usage applet and conky just today so lets see what these apps show me whats taking away the battery life.
sigh. |
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
Yes - I upgraded to PR 1.2 on Wednesday. N900 was noticeably warmer on Friday. Seems cooler today.
Admittedly, I was experimenting with the OS all Thursday and Friday, but I was thinking of asking the same question. |
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
I did a manual upgrad with the flasher, including a flash of the emmc and my n900 is about as warm as it ever was.
No fancy apps installed (yet) and the reindexing did not make it significantly warmer either... |

Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
right now on my n900, there is only conky, skype, and xchat windows open, but conky is showing "browserd" taking ~90% cpu !! I wonder why. I will have to kill that process I guess, or just launch browser again and close it and see.
later ... ok i launched the browser and clicked on one of the bookmarks, during the page load process the cpu usage went way down, and now its normal. If I had not observed this through conky, wud it drain the whole battery? Yes perhaps. These things need lot of optimizations. |
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
my N900 has nothing running and is vanilla 1.2 and its charging. And it is still hot. I usually notice it when I am charging my phone.

mine has the same problem too. after removing Twitter widget & a reboot, it's back to normal now, don't feel any heat at the back anymore. not sure if that's the cause, but it works for me.
|
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
maybe because we're in may-june its getting hotter :P summer is coming
|
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
i really cant tell since i am overclocking even @1.15GHz. but my device really gets hot when making/receiving calls, using/playing media files and apps and playing emus. which i believe is normal.

"Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?"
not sure.........mine is never switched on battery has been flat for about 4 weeks now so I would have to say mine runs pretty cool |
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
Gets warm when I'm charging and playing a game or watching videos, is that normal?

Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
mine definitely runs warmer since PR 1.2 update almost all the time. sometimes uploading media seems to 'flush' the system and it goes to normal, but my battery life has definitely been affected.
|
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
Mine is like a fireplace and I updated properly via NSU
|
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
my n900 is warm when its on my hands for at least 20 mins

i haven't dug into a lot, but if/when i run into the issue, i usually just reboot to get over it. it doesn't happen often since i found it, but then again, i don't watch video much either since i found out about it. |

look on the bright side, maby you could use this feature to develop a "foot warmer" app or a "Fry an Egg" app N900, as useful as an inflatable dartboard |
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
Yeah same here, glad i'm not the only one. Usually when i'm on wifi browsing the internet (pre-pr1.2) it doesn't get warm even if i'm on it for quite long. But now (pr1.2) its becomes warm quite quick and thats whats draining the battery very quick.

Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
my unit definately gets warmer now. even when just setting on the counter or if i have it in my bag, it is hot.
|
Re: Has anyone else's N900 become significantly hotter after the PR 1.2 update?
Yeah mine definitely is
