Hey guys, I've been using setcpu to OC, and I was wondering what a safe operating temperature would be for the inspire 4g.
Thanks, happy flashing
Well my Captivate used to get extremely hot but it never got over 40°C. I have seen people say theirs went higher but I would try and stay under 40.

I'm running cm7 with Trinity kernel Oc at 1400 when I plug into the wall sometimes the battery gets hot also when playing VIP poker .all other apps run great. Any suggestions?

That's gonna happen while using the phone non stop, as for charging make a profile for when screen off/ while charging I do that and never have over heating issues... I also reboot the phone after I plug it in.

It seems like an error in the graphic drivers. I could come from a cold boot play a game til my phone gets warm then exit the game. After that the phone never cools down until after reboot. This has less to do about a charging profile and deals more with rouge code

I'm assuming that's the performance kernel, and of course it'll overheat (to about 108-115 for normal highs). You're overclocked and charging the battery will be more hot than usual, you don't need to have it clocked so high for something like that, try it at lower frequencies if you're charging.
Why dont you just drop your clock speeds down to 1200. It should still perform like a champ. Expect heat while charging, I am running the ICS Eagles Blood ROM. It happens to mine too, without O.C.
It still has major bugs but it is far smoother than the stock 2.3 lg release that sucks to date.
Really you don't need to OC that high though, and if you do you should consider doing some undervolting.
If you are over clocking to 1.4gz your phone WILL get much hotter.
This us because your CPU is running faster, and generates more heat.

Obviously, lower the CPU speed. This shouldn't have to be said.

Thanks still learning just drooped to 1200 Max and 430 min so ill se what happens thanks again

It's not an overcloking issue. I had the same problem at 1.2ghz and my phone was set to drop to 800mhz max when the screen was off. If it was an overclocking it wouldn't happen only when the phone is asleep because most phones are setup to use very little of the cpu when they are inactive.

Or, you had an app/s that kept running in the background, thus keeping the CPU awake. No G2X kernels currently support deep sleep (which would basically shut down almost everything when the screen is off), so that's another possibility. I'm on stock and don't need more than 760mHz per core most of the time.

my g2x running cm7 and the stock kernel will overheat when plugged into the wall. this alone caused many screens of death and constant reboots for me. i tend to just pop off the battery door before plugging it in and no more issues.

Yeah last night my phone froze and I'm running eagleblood's rom with stock kernel. I didn't reboot my phone before I went to sleep so that probably killed it

it really is not but it helps overheating a bit.its not like We OC to 1.8 but 1.4 still unnecessary.
This a dual core even at stock voltage still overheats.I seen single core devices really overheat.Plus Our experiences with overclocking,overheating would be different because each hardware make act different even though it's same phone.Also different locations,humidity temperature that affects phone too.You try to oc to 1.8 in the UK and it won't overheat lol COLD.

I was wondering if anyone had any idea how fast you can actually o/c this phone without damaging the processors

Specific to each phone man nobody can say some can get 1.8 some can't go past 1.5 mind you that's just keeping the phone running past those points most bomb and phone boot loops and stuff

I prefer 1.8 but not all chips are created equal... Mine is a refurbished Skyrocket so im quite pleased. Try it out and go up in increments until you are either blown away by the speeds or your phone says NO! (which usually means a reboot frenzy or boot loops)

OK say it does end up boot looping a restore will fix it but internally will there be damage ?

That's cool I appreciate the honest and the responses ... I'll just give it a shot see what happens if it takes a dump on me there is craigslist and my upgrade in November ... thanks again

Those clock speeds are considered safe so the damage would be from extensive strain from extended time at those speeds which could create high heat man chances are you won't have that issue overclocking is totally safe as long as you don't go crazy

The CPU is rated to run 1.2-1.7GHz fine so anything above those will depend on voltage and temperature. Higher voltage/temps are the ones that can cause degradation on a CPU when it gets too high. 1.8GHz should be fine but around that range you may see a higher power draw so if you use it too long it will eat up your battery.
Things that can contribute to higher temps other than higher voltages are use of GPS, keeping the screen on/high brightness, playing games while plugged in, using GPS on a car mount (heat from sun), or just plain browsing for a long time using the modem. Keep in mind that unlike computers and laptops, the phones don't have active cooling (fans) so if you plan to overclock just try to keep the phone in a low temp environment (don't leave phone in car!) :silly:
Just be sure to keep an eye on the temperature. If it starts running north of around 38° C then you should back it off.
That being said, with the badass or SmartassV2 governor I've had plenty of success setting the OC to 1.7

Hi in was thinking about create some profiles for Cpu control on Tasker for example :
Whatsapp Cpu max 800 min 200
Facebook Cpu max 850 Min 200
I have to think more about whichj app change the Cpu..
Is a good idea? For save some battery

Go ahead..:thumbup::thumbup:
A 50mhz difference isn't gonna save a 1% of battery lol just let the phone scale to your needs

I have playing all this day with the Cpu speed and ja ja I have to experiment more with which speed is correct for each app for now my phone is slow as hell when unlock the screen for at least 6 seconds I think is Joice defender Cpu on idle is 300 I will rise to 500 and test

I'd say listen to bbrad. Your phone can handle it.

Off course, because the cpu load varies constantly because of the user and/or system demand.
