So my sensation started heating up quickly to about 39C and only cools down to about 30+.
I'm running the stock 2.3.4, rooted with S-OFF.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

With the weather we are having this week 39c isnt bad at all. During heavy use I saw 46c once on the stock battery before changing to an Anker (which feel cooler to the touch), and that was in much cooler weather
As long as it stays below 50c under heavy usage its perfectly normal for a sensation in my oppinion.
Cheers

The weather is amazing! Makes u want to strip & run naked
Where did you buy your Anker from? Amazon? And if I flashed a custom ROM or a different kernel, would it solve the problem?

Yep, bought it from amazon...

Note: battery widgets/monitors report the wrong temperature on 3rd party batteries with the sensation. The back of the phone feels much cooler to the touch though under heavy use so its definitely running cooler than the stock battery.
If you underclocked the phone it would probably run cooler then, but I really wouldnt worry about the heat unless your seeing temps of 50c+ on the stock battery.

Anyone else's sensation getting quite hot while running cm7? Iv got no custom kernel running just the regular included kernel clocked at 1.2 :S it can get really hot sometimes and I'm not running anything intensive maybe just playing some music and browsing the xda app most iv done is play a 2D game

Depending on the ROM and what your doing with the phone, it can get very hot. I'm now using Android Revolution HD, however with insertcoin, when I would use my phone a lot, the battery got super super hot.

I hate to point out the obvious, but isn't the common denominator the battery? Maybe our batteries are faulty. I'm running a stock Sensation and my battery gets hot too when charging or when the screen is on for a little while.
mine is usually at the bottom of my screen. weird i know. i even read it happens to others to on the bottom of the screens

While charging it is normal. Because now everything is getting slimmer and slimmer all the parts are getting closer and this is the result. Every battery gets warm when you charge it, some more some less. It is not a defect.
Guys, is it safe to use High capacity battery for my HTC Sensation??
You'll find a lot of threads in Accessoires-Section. But to shortly answer your question: I have one Anker with 1900mAH and I am really happy. Lasts much longer and it seems that recharging is faster, too. Measured time with stock battery and with anker and anker simply charged the same time (battery was at 1 %).
But: no correct temperature is shown. This you'll find on all replaycement batteries.
I got one too and can vouch for it as well. Its a great battery.

So far I am very satisfied with mine
Here is a quick review I did on it

Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA
I'm considering picking this up so I don't always have to lug around my powerskin battery pack. But has anyone used this over a long period of time? If the battery's charge becomes the same as the stock battery over time then I don't see too much point of getting it.
Never had this issue before ..
When i use my phone normally it heats up real quickly im using the 1900mah anker battery but it wasn't like this before the other day..
I forgot my phone in the car and when i took it back it was extremely hot because of the sun but since then it overheats i tried changing clock speeds aswell changing rom.. so im sure its not the roms..

Try changing to a different kernel, they have better temperature control/redundancies than the stock kernels (which I'm assuming you're using due to your sig )
Try Faux or Bricked, they're in the Dev thread.
Battery could be damaged because of the extreme heat? Just a thought but it shouldn't happen though.
Hows the battery life?

It happened to me on my STOCK battery. I switched out battery to Anker and its NEVER happened since. Sort of leads my to believe it is related to the battery. My screen got sooo hot honestly I could barely touch it, I was afraid it was going to fry my SD card! After the switch not once has it done it again. Hope this can help you out in some way! Good luck

Sounds rather strange...
Also food for tough.. I had this problem with my phone because of a service was hanging on 95% CPU.. I force closed it, but it automatically started again, so I had to wipe and re-install the ROM.
The buttons tend to get hot, I've noticed this. Has nothing to do with battery temp.
Check the battery temperature, it will not be more than 40 deg Cel.
I have turned the lights off and i do not feel overheat anymore this is crazy loll

Turn the brightness down, turn of auto sync and as suggested before turn of the buttons. Brightness has also caused my overheats so I keep it down whenever I can.
From my experience of 3 batteries, stock anker and a saner the battery has had no effect on the overheating, could it just be a placebo effect?

I have an Anker and an EVO 3D battery.. They both seem about the same to me. I use the EVO battery most of the time because you can actually get an accurate temperature reading from it.

Currently using an EVO 3D battery, and have been for a while. I can't comment on how much screen time you will get, but it's definitely an improvement over the stock battery.

Yes, is compatible. You need only to put it reversed because on sensation battery connectors are in right and on evo 3d battery are in left.
Hello,
I'm getting sick of my Sensation. I'm using the stock ICS rom with Sense 3.6. Radio:11.22 HBoot: 1.27.0000 With 2 Anker Batteries (1900mah). I just downloaded the battery monitor widget and I saw it was at -407ma!!! But it's dropped to around -161ma. I usually maybe if I'm lucky get 4 hours out of it? I really want to fix this. Tried many other roms but still the same. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Lachy

wiping battery stats will do no good..
What is your screen time? And do you make sure to turn off GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth, and disable auto sync when you don't need them? You can also try flashing other roms and different kernels

I assume you're already rooted coz you mentioned that you've tried many other ROMs? Do let us know what kernel you're using and some details such as the governor, tweaks and OC speed that you're using. Perhaps you can start by installing CPU Spy from the Play Store and let's see whether it is reporting that your CPU is getting deep sleep when your phone is idle.

Hi you know what helped me? I got a different long lasting battery! Now I don't worry about battery drain any more. I bought one of the big boys a 3600mah battery. It solved my battery problem! I bought it from mugen. Finally, I can use my device without worry about the battery! Downside is it does make the phone thicker but with this battery life it's so worth it! 19 hours heavy use and still have 42% battery left! It's been awesome! So if your sick of the battery drain, I suggest you get a extended battery. It does the trick! No more constant charging! Best wishes

That much battery drain across different ROM's with 2 different batteries screams hardware problem to me.
Is the device getting REALLY hot? Even when idle?
I'm thinking there's a short somewhere that's causing the drain. I can't be positive without looking at the device, but usually you'll see that kind of battery problem fix itself with a new ROM or different battery.
It's also possible that you got bad batteries. Did you buy them from some random discount store on eBay? Those tend to be crap if you aren't getting them from a reputabel seller.
I agree with above post always buy your batteries from good seller like mugen
