Htc One X temperatures - HTC One X

Hey guys I have installed Battery Monitor and my phone is reporting too high temperatures when browsing internet - 42° C.
I played Qosmos on charger and temperature was 47°C. I am really disappointed with battery solution of HOX.
so, what are dangerous temperatures for our phone? I saw someone reported 55.. doest it damage battery?

yep most likely caused by overheat

50 and the clocks go down, 70 and the phone shuts itself off. My temps are basicly always +50 if im playing something or the phone is charging. Playing and charging rises the temps anywhere between 50 and 70... Just recovered from overheating shutdown, so yeah, overheating is indeed present with the ONE X...

Even browsing it gets hot, seems that stock browser heats more than dolphin, but I have to test it further. Temp+CPU shows 40C.

did you notice any gap between screen and metal lining on left side? some people said overheat may cause gap on it..

Now that you should mention it, i can definitely fit my fingernail between the body and the screen glass without any forcing or anything, resulting the case bending and it feels quite as i could just snap the glass off anytime i wanted. The glass also makes creaking noises, especially the bottom part. Scary stuff. Both sides of the screen and bottom corners show some flexing (disortion on the screen when medium pressure is applied) as well.
Beginning to reconsider whether my HOX is pristine or not, or could even the design of the model be flawed.
Good thing there is such thing as warranty.

yes it will be hard to put our hands on this
screen flex is associated with temps, its just not happening to all people depending on their usage and the state it come with out of box
if its hardware trait i can live with it but i prefer to have the flex on top of the screen rather than the sides lol
ill order HOX with screen flex on top lol

I was playing two flash videos yesterday on 3G and some surfing which was about 20 mins my battery before surfing was 40% by the time I realise how hot my phone was it dropped to 11%!!!!
I began to feel the phone get hot on both screen and back was so hot it almost burnt my finger. I understand T3 can get hot but not to the point of temperate of a hot kettle.

Setting the governor to Powersave only uses 2 CPU and save heat by alot even playing games. I use conservative, only uses 2 CPU mostly and its similar to on demand

i had this defect out of box on my first HOX never knew if it was caused by overheat but definitely it was imperfect out of box then screen was so loose you feel you want to pull it out
now ill test the new one which has no lamination imperfections so far
slowly though ill let the glue settle for a week first before starting the heavy stuff

good luck hamdir.. i read some of your post/comment regarding build quality and all this issue.. personally i think it take a lot of hope and belief that you'll get exactly what you want.. mine has gap as well but not so serious.. i think i can live with that and as long as it not getting widen.. except for this and some screen flex, my HOX has no problem..

My HOX is running around 38C on ARHD 3.1

CPU temperatuur
Is it also possible to measure the cpu temperature? I can only find the battery temperature. The highest temperature I measured was around 45* degrees. Sometimes the phone gets very hot in the right top corner. I have noticed at the left side of the phone there's a little gap, not so big that I could put my finger nail into it, but big enough for dust. At the top the gap between and the body is big enough for me to put my fingernail between the body and the screen, as far as I know that gap was there when I get the phone.
Anyway, I'll stick to this phone, if no dust gets underneath the screen I'm happy the way it is! I love this phone very much!! can't live without it!

My phone seems to get hot. The highest has been over 50C but it gets to over 45C when just browsing the internet with stock browser and not plugged in. This is with the newest 1.29.402.11 firmware
Is this normal for this phone?

Odd touch screen behavior

Well,i noticed some odd behavior the other day with my phone laying on my desk at work. It was completely unresponsive. So I was just fooling around, laying the phone on my bed, same thing. I realized that unless my other hand is touching the phone, the screen is unresponsive. Think this is some sort of grounding issue? It isn't a big deal, but I have never had this problem on other phones. Anyone else have this problem? Try sitting it flat on a desk without touching the body of the phone and see if the touch screen functions.
Sent from my HTC Vision
Dont quote me on this but i read on how touch screens work and it basicly like you said the screen has a charge and when you touch it it slightly changes the charge and thats how the cpu monitors the change and tells the screen to act the way it does. But i am not sure why the screen gets less responsive when your not holding it in your hand. It happens with my G2 and my G1 so nothing new but maybe some one can actually explain what is going on.
Fear the static
The answer is quite simple; it's cooler outside so there is less humidity in the air. With lower humidity you have a higher static charge on your body (hence why you can zap someone more easily in the winter than the summer). Since the screen is capacitive (relies on small changes in the charge on the top surface to know where you are touching it) and you have a larger charge on your body, the digitizer sees it more like you bringing three or four fingers in close proximity to one spot. The reason putting both hands on it works is because you now give the digitizer a reference charge to distinguish and ignore.
TL;DR - Winter static makes screen think you are ham-fisting it.
Solution - use hand lotion to help dissipate your body's static charge from your fingertips, just don't use so much that you end up leaving greasy streaks on your screen. If you do, wipe the excess off of your hands with paper towels until you don't have lint tracks in your hand, TP is good for this.

Makes sense. Weird I never noticed before. Good deal.

I can confirm this "issue" or behavoir. It happened to my phone exactly like u described. I dont know if this is a common thing for capacitive devices or not but it does happen to me.
Oh well, i guess i should stop being lazy and pick up my phone lol.

I 2nd that statement and a +1 on solution with lotion! lol
Now i will begin to tell my gf how the Screen isnt HEAT sensitive and why during the winter time with cold hands it responds differently.
i did notice this behavior the other day, and to be perfectly honest it scared the tar out of me, but then as soon as i picked the phone up it was fine again. i guess you really do learn something new every day, i always thought the capacitive screen reacted to heat, but i guess not.

Does all capasitive screens react like this are some phones just more prone to it?

HTC One X - Tear Down Photos

http://fashion.pconline.com.cn/mobile/1204/2754053.html
Just like the sensation the One X can function seperate from its shell
However these photos also reveal the screen is one part with the metal lining which in tern locks into the polycarbonate
the problems some people are facing is a flex between the screen and the metal frame! glue problem or do we have clips there too?
Also you can see how to replace the battery
Great news that the battery is easily replaceable, hopefully the part is available to the public either first or third-party...
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using XDA
Great to see someone has been brave.... Must have large pockets or large stones.....
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA Premium HD app
the bad news is the flex, is between the metal and screen, that's certainly a defect
i guess the glue is pooping out due to structural pressure or heat

Not so easy.... To change battery, have to remove mainboard (battery connector laying under)= warranty void...

Your warranty is void anyway, or you wouldn't be changing the battery yourself. ;-)
the more i think about it the more i realize most of the different issues around here are coming of this particular screen defect, where the glass is pulling from the metal frame around, i thought its glue
but i tried my hardest to lock mine back and now its locked into place
so i dont think it glued back, there most be also clips in there for the screen too to clip it with the metal frame
everyone with the flex issue should shut down the phone and try to lock it back
If I put quite a lot of pressure on mine it does stop it from creaking for a short while but it soon comes back.
I've noticed the creaking is worse when the device is cold too. For obvious reasons I guess

yes but im trying it now the more i apply pressure the more it becomes rigid, the gap is almost gone too
try around the whole rim and not just the affected area with the device turned off (no fast boot)
That big sheet of copper is for heat spread. Just so you know where all those heat is coming from. Apparently it needs a copper sheet to spread the heat about.
Just saying, for those who dont know yet. My chinese is horrible. That is about the only thing I can roughly understand.

That copper will be transferring heat away from hotter areas, and towards cooler ones. The battery will be one of the hotter areas.
Also, it's likely there for RF shielding to some degree.

This explains why my phone won't charge at the same time as running something processor and graphically intensive.
It says...
"The opposite of taking it apart. As you put the phone back together, push the top area into the calycarbonate casing first then slowly work your way down the sides into the casing. The putback process was similiar to the Sensation, however the One X design may be for making the device more compact and thinner."

Screen cracked overnight. How?

My girlfriend owns this phone, and put it on her dresser overnight. In the morning she found it in the exact same position, but there was a crack going horizontal along the screen, causing the bottom half to not work.
How does a phone crack like that overnight without being touched?
She claims that when using this phone that it often gets extremely hot to the touch when plugged in. Maybe that has something to do with it?
I've read that it is some kind of defect caused by heating and cooling cycles. or it could be that the battery itself puffed up and cracked your screen.
This Gorrila Glass fibre has these dealbreaker issues, it mostly happens due to the following reason : Upon gaming and/or charging, the upper half may get extremely hot and the lower half remains normal and takes relatively more time compared to the upper half to change its temperature. This regional temperature difference when sufficiently high causes tension and it gets cracked. DO NOT keep the phone at cool surface when it gets hot, heat is NOT the culprit, but the temperature difference is. You may keep it on soft cloth or a relatively warm place in future.

Question regarding to the backside of note

Hi,
About a week ago i bought this version of Note, and now i notice that the backside of the tablet is not 100% straight, there is a few bumpy places, (up and down), not a lot but a little . Just wondering if others tablet has this too ? or is mine faulty or something.
And one more thing i notice is that the tablet becomes warm after 10-15 of reading books, or doing other activity, to precise it on the backside right under Samsung logo and alittle to the left. Is it normale ?

Haven't noticed any bumps on the back but the back does heat up. Probably due to CPU usage or accessing the memory card.
If the internal MB is anything like the N8000 (1st gen Note 10.1) the motherboard takes up space along the top of the case with the bottom being mainly battery... But I haven't seen the MB for our tab yet....

Bumps: Yes. While prepping mine for a plasti-dip coat I noticed some very slight bumps.
Heat: Yes, just as you describe.

Yes noticed slight raises on both sides. I don't think anything to worry about. I have the slim poetic case on mine (same one I had on my nexus 10) and there is no issues.

is this normal?

Hi, please see the picture and tell me if it's happened to you, the back glass not fitting correctly after only 3 months of normal use, no drop, and what do you suggest a solution? thank you.
I was just noticing this on mine a few days ago. But I cant remember if it was always this way. I noticed it after my phone got super hot from charging, at 1st I though it was the battery swelling. Device cares app says my battery is healthy. So idk but the seams seem to be consistent all around just wider than I thought they were.

Probably an adhesive failure/improper assembly. May or may not effect it's water/dust resistance.
Needs to be disassembled to be examined/ repaired.
Extreme heat weakens the adhesive bond of the strips used to secure the back panel. It's possible that careful heating and then pressing down could reseat it, but given the cost of the phone probably best to leave it to an experienced tech. Also the adhesive surface may have by now become contaminated with dust making simple attachment impossible without replacing the strip.
