Freezes/Power Crashes?

[FSRBIKER]

Why do some phones "like" certain kernels while others don't? Shouldn't all moto droids respond the same to these kernels (assuming they are using the same rom and theme)?

all cpu's are slightly different. Mine hates p3 kernels and throws a fit. I can run bekits lv with no problems at all though.

What type of fits does your phone throw when running a bad kernel? Are there any indicators of a bad kernel vs a bad rom or theme? I switched to from a p3 1.0 to a p3 1.2, and have had less freezes, but the battery usage still seems to be a little high and my battery temps are around 35-40 degrees when using it a lot.

That temp is fine when using it alot. What can happen other than running very hot is your phone is very laggy, I've noticed weird stuff happen like closing of apps by themselves, keyboard disappears, LV stutter, once I switch to another kernel(can be the same just different speed sometimes) this goes away. It's a learning game for your phone.

my phone pretty much entered a warzone out of nowhere today. I was forced to restore, but it wasn't because of my kernels, my phone peaked 60*C and went into a reboot frenzy. It was crazy, and it drained my battery from full to fifty percent in ten minutes. I couldn't believe it.

Alex do you have a Failsafe profile setup on SetCPU? Temp Monitor is also a good app that can be used with visual alarms if your temp ges above what you set it at.

Failsafe is for battery temperature, and it was running a cool 28*C.
