freeze on GTA02 with high CPU load

2009-01-12 Thread Jean-Philippe Andriot 

Hello,

I just by a new FreeRunner and flash it with Om2008.12 (kernel, rootfs and 
u-boot)
But I have big troubles with it : lcd and everything freeze.
I use the default image and installed no package yet.

After doing some tests, I can tell that :
 + seems ok when phone is charging and running idle (lcd on, suspend disabled)
 + when CPU is running at 100% during a couple of minutes then freezes.
this happens easily while playing with contact list, location (moving in the 
map)
or going inside installer.
 + when frozen, next reboots will fail and freeze during X init.
I have to wait some time before being able to use it again. That makes the phone
totally unusable.

I think about something overheated, but nothing seems very hot. I checked 
battery temp
value before phone freezes and is around 280.

Is there any other temp counter I can check ? may I verify CPU voltage ? which 
other
test should I do ?

Any help would be appreciate.
Thanks.

This seems an issue really similar to the one I had (if you look around
in the archives you should find my reports)... I never noticed the CPU
usage, but simply the phone freezed after some usage due to a glamo issue...
If this is the problem, there's a patch on git that fixes it but I don't
know if it has been applied to the Om2008.12 kernel.

Give a try to this kernel image [1] (that I've compiled with the fix
that works for me), and let me know if you still get these freezes.

Bye
