Hi all, this is just a small update with some fixes:

  • Fixed bug where the dim screen info dialog shouldn’t dim screen instantly
  • Fixed bug where capture was not started after dismissing the dim screen dialog
  • Localization updates

Since this version, I regularly receive a message saying that my device is too hot. Even when I’ve just started recording.

@Lowiekse - sorry to hear that - could you let us know with phone model you’re using and your Android version?

Samsung A51, Samsung A54 and Samsung Xcover. I am experiencing the same problem. So it does not seem to be specific to a particular type.

Thank you! @fcignat - are you able to see if you’re able to reproduce this?

For this I only manage to reproduce it more often with the Google Pixel devices (Google Pixel 7Pro Android Version 16 and Google Pixel 4a Android Version 13) for which I already have a task raised and assigned to Anders (for example, if the phone is plugged in to charge and doing Auto Captures the overheating appears after a couple of minutes). For the Samsung devices which I have (Galaxy 9, Note 8 and S21) I have done captures for 30 minutes and I still did not get the device is overheating message (granted, I do not have a SIM card installed on these devices, which I think it might contribute to the heating problem). I will try to test again with a SIM card to see if that will make a difference.

Quick update follow-up from the previous comment: I did insert a SIM card on Samsung Galaxy S9 Android Version 10 and I had a relatively poor connection (4g+ with alternate weak signal between 2 bars and 0 bars of signal) and after 2 minutes of constant Manual Capturing I got the message with ‘Phone is overheating’ (quick mention, the phone was also charging at the same time). I have repeated the test again after leaving the phone to cool off, and again with the SIM Card and Mobile Data enabled I got the ‘Phone is overheating’ after 2 minutes and 15 second. And I then took out the SIM Card, and then did the test again with constant Manual Captures and after 10 minutes I still did not get the message. Definitely a constant mobile connection and maybe other apps running in the background contribute on triggering the Thermal State of the phone. Not to mention if there is also a heatwave and the dashboard temperatures are higher.

Thank you Florian - would you mind opening a task for this (assigned to Andres, cc Yaro and myself?)
