Hello XDA ! I have an HTC One X. I have been using it and now I started to track my Battery temperatures. I am running ARHD 7.1.0 Custom Rom and my battery temps in my house in IDLE are about 26-30 Degrees. When I start using it inside afer about 5-10 mins of playing Dead Trigger or Real Racing 2 the temps are about 45-47 and after 30-40 mins they are about 50 degrees and I dont think this is normal for a battery. The phone becomes untouchabe at the top. Today I was just browsing the web outside (where its really hot - about 38-40 degrees) and after 5 mins the battery was 56 degrees JUST FROM BROWSING ! I wanted to ask if this is normal with every HOX and is there any fix. Sorry for my bad english
HTC says it's normal for your phone to reach such temperatures -_-. But the 2.05 base leak has temperature fixes. My hox doesn't get that hot as often as it used to after I installed Arhd 7.1.0
And yes my phone also got that hot just by browsing internet.

So if I continue using the phone after the battery is over 45 degrees I won't damage it ? I always stop doing everything if the temp goes over 45. And what are your temperatures ?
Yeah nothing should happen. Mine is around 40C

Mine also gets quite hot. Next time it does I will take a reading and post back.
@Op,
Use it not abuse it.
Why don't you tell your experience to the developer of the custom rom rather then opening a new thread?
Like this you won't get an answer, a waist of space.
@laurentius26
I didn't think he was talking about the ROM, its a HOX problem.
Lot of people are facing it and 2.05 base seems to have fixed it for most of them. Mine still heats up while browsing once in a while but its much MUCH lesser than before.
@OP
Try another rom if you think ARHD is the problem. Imo the rom isn't the problem.

Battery should be rated for 60c should be kept under that.
CPU has a thermal cut out at 99c

Lucky you are to not have had your hox heat up. Mines reached points where I couldn't charge it while browsing on edge because the battery was overheated. The new base however my phone barely heats up. But then my usage has changed compared to when I was on 1.29

My Hox (old one... Currently at repair center) gets 47c outside in the top of screen and camera (yes I use a laser temperature meter), battery at 53, and CPU at 94c... After 15/20 minutes of playing tegra games, or just stressing CPU for 10 min using stability test.

Currently I have played Shadowgun THD for a couple of minutes and now I'm using Xda premium and also browsing the Internet. My cpu didn't go above the 45°c The higher temperature is only because of the game, on regular use my device temperature stays constant.

you`re wrong
its not cpu temp for sure its bat temp for cpu temp use sytem tools and go cpu
pic.1 look at current widget for batt. temp.
pic.2 look cpu temp.
I almost burn mine out the other day... It even turned itself off... (I fell asleep whilst playing Max Payne with the phone on charge). I would say it got to about 70oC! THANK GOD FOR AUTO SWITCH OFF ON TEGRA 3
@Darkony, yep you're right indeed.
The CPU temperature goes up and down from 40 till 70 degrees on my device depending
on uses (it reaches 70 degrees but cools down very quickly as well).
The battery temperature reaches 47 degrees, (4 runs with StabilityTest app).
after two months of owning the HOX and now running the leaked the 2.05
it never overheats or blinks or whatever
it does get a little hot during non stop heavy gaming but thats it
i can even play on the charger
My big concern is the 47c in the top of screen :/ really hot you cant touch or answer a call

We all suffer from crappy battery life some worse than others. It all depends on how you use the phone some days I'm lucky to get 3hours from a full charge (usually when the kids are shouting at me) but others if I hardly touch it it'll last 2 days at least.

Iam using cynogenmod 7.0.3..
528mhz
Browsing- 30 to 60min at max
Downloading time - 20-30min
Now during these two times my device starts heating...specially during downloading(apps,songs etc)...
sent via HTC wildfire cyno7magma using xda app.
Normal running temperature is between 25-35 degrees, obviously when downloading, playing music etc it will get hotter, there's other things that can affect temperature too though such as outside temperature if its hot outside the temp can shoot up pretty fast when using the phone with a heavy load.
Pretty sure I read somewhere that HTC said the phone could handle 60 degrees Max and my guess is your hitting around 40-45 degrees (that seems about the norm from what I've been reading from other users) there's apps in the market to measure temperature and I'm pretty sure the battery monitor in spare parts tells you the battery temp.
If your getting anymore than 45 degrees I'd say there maybe something slightly wrong but if not don't worry about it, just give the phone 10 minutes to cool down everytime it gets warm.
And may I ask is it plugged in charging while you use? because that will add to the temp too.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium
there's a free app called "elixir" which has a widget that you can adjust for tons of info (CPU, free space, RAM, wifi, tethering, ... everything basically) including battery temperature. You can check it out if you want.
When I tethered outside in the hot sun my battery got to about 42 degrees, I killed it then and cooled it, but as said before it should be able to take that kind of temperatures (mid/high 30's are no prob)

Same here and my own start heating when i switch on the phone after some 1 min phone start to burn in my pocket.
I think it's a hardware solution can someone give us proper solution ?
The temperature of my 1x gets extremely high sometimes, especially when I play games, what is the highest possible safe temperature and at which temperatures is it risky to keep playing? Also, will this be fixed?

Yes.
It might be only placebo effect, but browsing with Dolphin Browser HD heated less One X than stock browser. It might have been only a coincidence and I haven't tested enough to reach conclusions. Yet, other users might confirm or infirm this impression.
This can’t be the normally operating temperature range. When my battery temp gets to 55 Deg C it reports the battery state as “overheat”. This can’t be good...
Ever since I used a custom rom my phone doesn't get any where near as hot, must be something with stock.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
I played Riptide GP for a while and topped at ~38 Degrees. Even a 40 Minute Google Maps Navigation with attached Car Charger topped @ around 36-37 Degrees. Perfectly fine for me, tho other Games (or Demos) like Glowball which REALLY stress the GPU and CPU due to its graphics demo category heat up the phone to like 43 Degrees.
Other than that, I dont have any problems. I only start up Glowball for a couple of seconds to show off graphics power, not to do anything scientific in there.
EDIT: And what should I say. My standby time is around 26 Degrees when not in my pocket. In my pocket it goes up to 31-32 degrees, but thats normal since the casing kind of absorbs the heat of your body at some point.
When I surf the web for like 30 Minutes, my device never gets hotter than 34-35 degrees, even in comfy warm surroundings (like my flat).
The heat discribed in that article seems a little intense... Maybe there is a faulty batch with heat issues? The One X sure gets warm, but so did my old Galaxy S2 and on top of all, the old Motorola Milestone which became a rough ear heater when doing calls for more than 40 Minutes.
I had a 60 Minute call with my bro 2 days ago, and my One X just got up to 29 degrees... Dunno whats going on there. I always have temperature sensor apps running the first few weeks after I bought a new device.
>>>>“If the phone is in normal use without playing games or calling for long time, the temperature should be around 37°C or 38°C. But if you use your phone to play games or surfing internet for a long time, it will be normal that the temperature rises to around 55°C.“, official statement from HTC. <<<<
This is the one major gripe I have about the One X. It should not heat up to 50C no matter what. It may be "normal" for the One X, but it's not normal or good in general. I hope the next firmware update addresses this. I've gone through god knows how many phones and the heating issue is by far the worst with this phone. Some surfing and apps running for about 10 minutes should not warrant a jump to 40+ degrees in my opinion...
Hi guys, I want to buy the HTC One and I am a big gaming fan. My question is, how much batterylife takes it to play for example Shadowgun for one hour on this device?
Thanks for any answer.
For me it takes about 3 hours and the battery is depleted ( playing a movie+reddit browsing).
:/
Though I'm on the pre-battery fix update (1.26.771.2)
I would say that one hour of ShadowGun takes between 20 and 30% of battery. I'm on 1.29 that has improved battery life, specially while the phone is on stand by.
Yesterday 25-30mins of shadowgun (where cpu is not faster than 1GHz) took 25% of battery. Wifi was on, screen brightness around 40%, GSM signal weak. So it seems that max is around 2,5h with no wifi/data and good reception.
Put it in airplane mode whilst gaming
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Yep, heavy 3d games kill the battery, but the trade off is that games look AMAZING on this phone.

Not joking, I even made a thread about it and I can get just barely around 3 hours of screen time from a full charge, and this is with juicedefender ultimate on. HTC One X has a great battery on stand by but if you actually USE the phone and by that I mean just put the screen on its worse than horrible
Couple hours is when plugged into charger. Without is less but I havent tested it.

At this moment I have the SGS2 and the game uses 25% per hour playing Shadowgun (no joke). The phone does not get warm at all.
Modern Combat 3 takes about 50 to 60% of my battery per hour. And it heats up. Why does the One X uses so much battery on Shadowgun? Anyone?

Shadowdun is enhanced for Tegra 3 devices, so extra effects and and overall better looking game, all 4 cores are being used vs the dual core GS2.

NO YOU CAN'T
if you use 5V charger your phone overheats after 10-15 minutes.
if you use 3V charger (usb output from notebook) your phone will use more power than charger can supply and will discharge - however much more slowly comparing to just being on battery.
OS - 1.28 .

Relax.
Battery life for the first two weeks will be appalling, but after two weeks it settles down. You should expect no mpre than 24 hours with average/moderate use though.
Plus for the first 3 or 4 charges, mine was also getting quite warm. What is happening to you sounds completely normal and should get better over time.
What software version is it? (Settings > about > software information)
How much screen on time does he get? (When almost flat: settings > power > battery use > screen)
What is he normally doing when it gets hot?
I noticed my phone was over heating (red/green flashing led) when using YouTube desktop page while charging. Then I turned of the 2d hardware acceleration in developer options (This is off as default) and it stopped. I also gained 30 minutes of screen time.
Also, when you say overheating, these things do get hot, that's normal, can you define overheating?
I use Android Revolution HD 6.0.0 (1.29.401.11) and my phone gets "very" hot after 5 minutes while playing Shadowgun THD.
Not only the backside of the phone, but also the touchscreen gets very hot, so that it doesn't feel comfortable to touch it for more than 3-4 seconds...
Hope this issue can be somehow fixed by new Tegra-Drivers or something else...

You do realise that ambient temperature across the world varies by over 60c? Your statement is meaningless for somebody who lives in northern Sweden or Egypt, for example.
I'm in the middle east our temp is 25c today I just gamed Sonic 4 episode 2 for one hour CPU ne er crossed 72c and batterry around 45c
.....by the way lots of apps in the background will increase temps during gaming
and remember firmware 1.29.401.11is the best in terms of temps, worst was 1.26
Wait for a week or two before you root. In case something is wrong it would be hard for you to return. By the time the hardware will settle down.

Actually 50c is around the point where the heat triggers a pain response.
As for the heat no you're not the only one, if you are rooted you can use core control to turn off cores to lower heat.
If you're not rooted or unlocked then take it back it is an issue.

My phone too gets hot and so does my mates HOX. I can hit temps up too 54 even 59. Common issue so they say
My hox got to 57 on 1.29... Now on the new test firmware it will just hit 50, most times its around 45 on tegra games... Wait it out. The temperatures aren't right but they'll be fixed soon.
Hi all, not sure where you're getting the actual degree values from or I'd share.
Anyhow, my HOX used to get so friggin hot I thought it would combust, and that was just from normal use for maybe 30 minutes tops. That was all stock, and with a couple ROMs I tried before.
However, now it never gets even slightly warm... yesterday I used it nearly 8 hrs straight, not even slightly warm. I'm on eXoDiZeD ROM, it's included stock kernel, and using No-Frills CPU with max 1.5GHz and min 102MHz, ondemand.
I see absolutely no performance loss, but get easily 2-3x longer battery life, and amazingly no heat at all, not even screen gets warm like it used to. Just my two cents for the pot.
My hox is relly coold..
But have no program to check the temp on it
Maby you can tell me some?
Mine gets up to 45 max.. Did never notice higher temperatures
Battery widget by Elvison shows temp

My One X actually got so hot that it fried my processor. HTC replaced it for me. I had a Malaysian One X and they replaced it with a European One X. This one still gets hot but nowhere near as hot as my old one. I would have to put my old one down because I couldn't stand to hold it any longer especially because that metal ring around the camera would burn me.
