Never had A1 myself, but I remember some threads on this forum telling that thermal contact between CPU and heat sink within A1 Chinese clones getting loose or having no heat sink at all leading to CPU overheat and having almost identical symptoms. Fixing heat sink seems to help for most guys. Just open it and have a look or search for threads about that. I think some even had pictures posted.

If the cpu overheated..then i can put icom into garbage right?

Fingers crossed thermal protection protected it before going totally toast. Just open the case and see if heat sink is not loose.

I think I saw pictures somewhere on this forum, but can't find them in a hurry. If heat sink is ok, then you can try restore method proposed by others.
