Hey people.
I own the OnePlus 3 and its is on a custom ROM Named Experience OS based on OB 17.
Its running on the kernel provided by the ROM and firmware is also stock as I use TWRP from Blu_spark v 33.
Now the problem is when I am charging the device it heats up abnormally high note higher than 46 degrees.
And also I get bad standby time with only upto 4 and a half hour Run time between charges.
I have noticed high drainage from Android System.
I charge only upto 80℅.
Tell me where I am wrong.
Do I need to visit the service center..??
If you require additional information do tell me.

Try another ROM or kernal. I think sultan's ROM has better battery experice and less heat issues. Try to switch to Sultan's.

Something isn't right since dash is meant to take the heat away from the device while it's charging

Are you using the phone at the same time? Also check your app usage maybe a rouge app is keeping it away while charging and causing the heat

+1 i too face the heating issue while the phone is charging. I had a strange incident as well: When i visited my parent's house last week, i received a phone call while it was getting charged and since it was from a family person i told my father to receive it in my place as he was standing near the phone. As soon he touched the phone to his ears he told, "it's is very son".
I have been facing this since last couple of months when i used to have stock oos. Then unlocked bootloader and started triying different roms. But the heating problemus still there and instead i got addicted to installing roms every week?

Well can you provide us some data atleast? It's not normal that you have to charge your phone every few hours. This means something is draining your phone most likly an user app.. Have you tried a full clean install / factory reset with the unbrick tool (method). With 46 degree you mean Battery temp or whatever? What is your surrounding temperature?

Well I will be glad to provide you data...
But what data do you want..??
And what should I use to give you data.
46 is the battery temperature.
And it's hot around my place at about 41 degree Celsius.
I haven't used the full unbrick tool yet.
Is it really required as I have to backup first XD

As soon as I use my phone the phone starts cooling down.
But as soon as I set it down it heats up again.
Tried checking for rouge app found Instagram stopped it but still no effect.
I even used the fix zip from the dev behind Experience OS.

Well you see. When you lay down your phone it will go into deep sleep. Deep sleep doesn't use alot of power which means your device won't heat up at all. In your case it does, as you describe you have only 4.5hr of standby which means something is draining your phone drastically. Can you provide some screen shots of your battery stats? Post as many different screen shots as you can. Also BetterBatteryStats is a really good app you can find the free version on XDA.

This was asked in the ExperienceOS thread too.
You have a runaway process on your phone. This will use 20-30% CPU on all cores all the time, more or less. Use an app that can check the KERNEL log like 3C Toolbox and you'll find that the heat is due to excessive logging (like several lines every second) from the same process. One of the more common issues is the kernel not able to get write permission for the pm-service to thr IPC Router. THis is solved by setting SElinux PERMISSIVE until the kernel can write to it.
This will make your phone charge slower, get hotter while doing it and give you lower SOT.
Usually this is due to using Magisk, since Magisk has issues with the sepolicy and needs to set SElinux to permissive. If SElinux is Enforcing (as it SHOULD be to protect your phone) the above issue will arise.
If you're using SuperSU then Jamal issued a FIX for this as he made an error in the init.d config for SuperSU 2.82. Basically the two issues are identical as far as the end user is concerned.

All this can be found in the Experience thread where you asked the same question and did not read the 10 posts right above your question.
