Battery temps. What are yall seeing? - Thunderbolt General

Im running drods 1.5ghz kernel set at 1.4ghz and bamf 1.3 with extended battery. at idle the phone runs around 87. But when performing simple tasks like streaming music through bt or using kik it quickly gets up too around 108. Is this normal should i be worried? My incredible oced too 1.2 would never breach 100 even if i was throwing everything at it.

108 is not a bad temperature don't sweat it. I usually set my safety profile for 120.0
I has an overcloked d1 running 1.25ghz constantly running between 105-115. Zero problems and my friend is using it a year and a half later as his phone.
I would recommend you use a setcpu profile to bring the overclock down while charging too. Phone gets hot while charging.

I use a wall charger for my battery's. ive also noticed it only really gets this hot with the radio on with kik running in the background or any small task really. On wifi it cools right on down. weird. Thanks for your input

I don't really pay to much attention to the battery temperature (maybe I should?) But I have seen it range from 84F - 102F when glancing at the battery stats.

I'll easily get over 100. But it's also 90 outside anyways. It does seem to get hotter than other phones, I don't know why. Using current widget I can see that it pulls a lot of mA.
I don't run much under 85 all the time.

Ya i live in florida its starting to get up there. Guess ill live with.

I had the Tbolt in the car the other day (gps mode) when i undocked it it was really hot / checking i saw it at 55C (131 F) / Usually its bet 28 and 34 C

Mines 88 @ work right now surfing on 4g 66% battery left according to setcpu off of newest bamf and the new kernal. Room temp is about 77... CPU set to smartass haha I love this stuff I have not touched my awesome custom built by me gaming pc all weekend aside from rooting my tbolt

I'm overclocked to 1408. My GPS is on along with wifi. Just finished Playing a game (Geared) and my temp is 96 degrees.

My phone was idle for a while, picked it up was 80. Opened internet and came here after a couple posts 90.

105* under heavy usage

87-95 depending on how heavy usage is. Never above 100 for me. (Extended Battery btw)

Running the TB @ 1.2ghz and I get a usual of 25-35c.

my phone idle while charging with wifi on is 35 celcius.........i cnt find Fahrenheit on my phone anywhere -__-

[Q] Overheating?

My current setting is Stock 2.3.4 ROM + Netarchy 1.3.0.12 kernel.
I noticed that it has been heating quite often.. and I can smell as if it's burning if I put my nose directly to the phone.
SetCPU shows that my phone is around 39~42 degrees when I can feel the heat on my hand.
My current SetCPU setting is max 1000 min 100 ondemand. I didn't change any voltage.
Is my device okay? I have Best Buy BlackTie In Plan.. so I don't know if I should exchange it.
check your background apps. maybe try restoring to stock then use the phone as you normally would. observe your phone temp. if that doesnt do you any good then i think you might need a replacement.
Mine gets that high, only while on charge and streaming music or running gps etc with the screen kept on. Or just constantly playing with the phone like a crackhead while on charge.
Idle temps while charging are around 37c (screen on)..
I left my phone with screen off for 30 minutes and now it's back to 29 degrees per setCPU.
I began to wonder if this is the smell from the phone itself or the actual burning because this smell continues to exist whether the temp is low or high.
I just do normal browsing, XDA app, and Facebook.. then it goes up to late 30s and low 40s.
It's probably just the new phone smell (ie fresh electronics)..
It seems like heating is somewhat of an issue for the new Galaxy S II as well.

Phone really hot?

I have been using wireless tether and have noticed my phone is getting really hot, I check and it was at 51 degrees celsius, so I shut off Wireless tether and it cooled. But is 50 degrees dangerous to have it at? Sorry if this is a noob question
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
Hmmm, that's strange. I use wireless tether almost all day every day, usually with my phone plugged into a charger so the battery doesn't die, and I don't think I've ever seen the temp go above 40C.
I could be wrong, but I believe 50C was the cutoff point for when starting to damage your processor. Are you overclocking at all? If you are, it would be a good idea to set up a profile to throttle down the overclocking when the temperature gets too high (and when charging).
Stock Kernel?? I use mine all the time for hours, I have never seen a temp issue. The Hotspot is a thirsty ***** though, I can watch the battery drop.

Stock battery?
Thanks, Robertus
50 degrees...celcius?
I have Battery Widget app and the temperature always hover between 86 to 105 FAHRENHEIT, and this is NOT using Wireless Tether. Is my phone defective?
Turn your screen off and keep your phone on a hard surface, not a carpet or bed, and it should stay noticeably cooler.

Not at all. 50 degrees Celsius is 122 degrees Fahrenheit. If you're phone starts getting that hot, then you should be a little concerned. Right now, my phone is at 97 degrees Fahrenheit, which is pretty standard.
As always, if you are overclocking you should really have a safety profile set up to force a lower processor speed when the temperature gets high to prevent damaging your phone.
I've had my phone getting uncomfortably hot while tethering in areas with subpar signal strength. Probably something to keep in mind.
These phones can handle temps of ~130 if I remember correctly. Processors get hot which is why company's make.them able to handle such temps. If your phone gets too hot your notification led will blink and your phone will shut off if it does exceed a set tempature (not sure what that temp is but obviously you didn't hit it). Your battery life may take a major hit with these temps but your processor is fine.

Battery Temperature

I was reading up on the article about Lithium batteries on BatteryUniversity and it said that 30 celsius is the ideal temperature for the phone, especially when it is charging.
My phone is normally at 23 C during standby, and quickly goes to around 30 in light usage. If I start playing games then it hits 37 C. Rare times it goes up to 40.
I am wondering if my temperature readings are normal, compared to other XT users.
Any tips on how to lower the temperature is appreciated as well. My biggest problem is when I start getting texts just early in the day and my phone starts over heating from them. Sometimes when I get texts while it is charging it goes up to 36-37. I don't know if it has to do with my app (handcent) but I never expected MMS to be such a "battery heater".
I run music apps all the time and it always stays at 30-32, but then once I start texting, bam. 37.
I've had mine hit as high as I believe 48C, but that was really pushing it and with a 100MHz overclock.
Typically any app that requires processing power will make it heat up a lot.
It may be a good idea to use a CPU manager.
You don't really need to sweat it (pun intended). No matter what you do, the CPU will have to work, thus creating heat. The only time you really have to worry about it is when it gets around 50°c. At that point you have to really worry about frying your processor. I have gotten mine up to 54°c and nothing happened. Freaked out, yes and put the phone down to rest for about an hour. Biggest thing that causes temp to go up, believie it or not, is the display. I can listen to an entire baseball game with the screen off and temp will hover around 113°f. Screen on and it goes way up really fast. SetCPU had a profile that will throttle back CPU when temp gets too high. Cool widget is Batstat. It'll show charge, voltz and temp in f/c°.
my phone's usual starting temperature (while phone is doing nothing) is around 30-32 degrees. I believe that it's due to warm climate where I live( room temperature during day is like 30 degrees) after playing a graphics intensive game for 5-10 min, phone temp will reach 40 degrees. Is that normal?

yeah, thats wat i'm wondering too. But then the post above u said as long as its not over 50 then its fine. I've read for other phones it goes up to 60/70 sometimes, so i guess i'm just over wondering.
my average temperature when i just pick up my phone is around 32degrees unless im in an air conditioned room... it usually heats up to 35-37 while im using it to do light stuff like facebook and twitter. my phone gets very hot only when i use my 3g network or when i am downloading a lot of apps from the market. i dont play games.
I am under 40°C with OC to 820mhz. I can have 40°C when I use gps on car when there is a lot of sun.
PS : I you want to stay at 40°C, you can use setcpu and underclock phone when battery temperature is higher.
On standby, my phone is at about 30 degrees. After light usage, it goes up to 37 degrees, which I guess is normal...
I once had my phone go up to 52 degrees. OC'ed to 1.2GHz and was running a game.

What temperature should be considered as too hot?

Hello!
I just installed Titan Kernel (over ThiaiZO3D V2.7.1) and i'm feeling my O3D a little more hot than usual.
The temperature now is 36.8 c / 98.2 f.
Sometimes it gets to 40 c +.
What is the normal temperature for this cellphone?
Thanks a lot!
I m having 26c now.

without using the phone too much mine usually is below 30ºc (rushdroid @ 1.2ghz), currently it's at 25.6ºc . but i've seen it go high as 42ºc but usually only when gaming...
Dont worry about it. The phone will shut off when it gets too hot.

I've seen mine reach up to 42 c when gaming. When idle, it should be around 26 c. Light - Medium use can get up to 36 c.
The max temp I've had is about 46 whilst charging and gaming with the cpu maxed at 1.4ghz with apps in background and i coudnt get it any higher, tried too though.
Btw that is only battery temp anyway isn't it, the cpu may be a bit cooler.
Alright guys, thanks a lot! I was almost going back to the normal kernel because I thought the phone was overheating, no I would just forget about it as long it doesn't get too hot.

Just remember that even if your phone runs fine at a higher temperature, it will reduce the life of what ever is running at a high temp.

(Q)Battery Temp?

What is the Battery Temp. supposed to be around on these phones?
And i possibly think the temp. monitor on Battery Life widget by Curvefish may be inaccurate.
On my Epic 4G its pretty accurate and around 70*F is normal Temp. At 82-86*F is Medium watching videos. 92-98*F is when i'm playing games. 100-108*F is when i'm OC'ed and playing games.
Shoot when my Epic is idling or the screen has been off for about more than 10 mins its around 74*F and if its been around a half an hour it will even drop down to about 54-56*F.
But on the NS4G it seems like anything i do seems like normal is 96.8*F, it takes a while to drop down to around 84-86*F. and when i'm watching videos or browsing XDA its at 102*F and gaming is at 104*F whether i'm OC'ed or not. The lowest iv'e seen the NS4G drop to was about 78*F and that was because it was a sleep for a long time(Hours).
So is it just the Battery Temp actually that high or is that app just not working too well with NS4G
Do you really think your epic's battery is in the 50s F ? That is far colder then any room temperature. Unless you're in the southern hemisphere and are outside in the cold your battery is simply not in the 50's
as for my daily use, like reading electronic book , few minutes of 3G internet and background music...
temp always between in 34 - 38 °C , which equals 93 - 100 °F
when i play 3D high-end games for about hour or so, it even came up to 105 °F ...
50 °F is about 10 °C, it is possible during winter ...but no in July...

Yep because my phone is cold when I pick it up like its 60. And when I was outside in January it was 30F because it was on the table and cold as hell. I do live in the south.

isn't the battery's max temp supposed to be around 120*F or 45*C and it automatically shuts itself off?
i think being in the 100's around near it all day is kind of killing the life expectancy of it?

nope for me, listening music while laying on the beach ( I live in Italy...) my battery run up to 40°C-104°F and sometimes even at 51°C-123°F, my personal best!
during sleep time in summer phone never drops down below 28°C-85°F, while in winter same condition is 22°C-71°F, so for what I suppose there's something wrong with cpu "cooling" cause is too much depending on outside temp, but running on same battery since I've purchased it, 06/11, every night charge and still same result as battery duration, so nevermind about phone temp, our nexus is a great phone...
