Hi,
You might laugh at this, but I have never owned a smart phone before. I got my Galaxy Nexus last Thursday and I took it for two trips this weekend, mounted on the dashboard. The trips were about a couple of hours each, and the weather was sunny with a temperature from 90 F to 97 F.
I use AndroSensor to measure the temperature of my battery. I found that my battery temperature was around 122 F most of the time, and once went up to 134 F. Is this OK or is there something wrong with my phone. Also the voltage of the phone dropped to 3.7 V as compared to 4.18 V when fully charged and cold.
I am just curious if there is something wrong with my phone. I would like to know what temperatures you guys see with the Galaxy Nexus.
Thank you,
O. O.
Depends my battery stays at 32 c when I work in a 55 f prep area. When I'm in a 82 f room it hits 60c with light usage. This is with trinity kernel. It manly depends on the temp of where you are

In a cool environment (low 70s F) my battery never reaches 120° F. At the moment, it's at 93°F, and I've been using it lightly for a while. Under very heavy usage I've see it reach 118, but more typically about 114. With moderate usage, I see 104 pretty often. After sitting overnight it's usually about mid-80s.
Being on a hot dashboard in direct sunlight on a hot day probably affected your battery temp quite a bit.
Cool Tool is pretty good for monitoring things like battery temp.

Thanks strumcat. There was direct sunlight on the phone since it was mounted on the dashboard, but still 134 F is ridiculous. Does anyone have any idea what he upper limit of the temperature of the battery is? This is a new phone so I would like to know if there is a problem right now before my 15 day trial period expires.
Thank you,

I reach 144°F when I play games and do heavy Facebook+browser Tasks.
Yesterday reached the temp of near shut down (12°F close). Be careful where u use your phone. Like the summer at Disney.
°___° always got hot to point to where I can't use it.
Q: battery dies faster when it's hotter then normal right???

I can't get past 110F if I try.
Best heat management I've seen on a phone personally.

If it was on direct sunlight, 130-ish is not that bad. But make sure that you don't do that next time. That can really be a huge problem. Also you know how hot the CPU was? I find you have to look out for CPU temperature more than battery, because CPU gets really, REALLY hot for me.
My max. battery temperature is around 120F, while charging and browsing/socializing. But my CPU temperature goes beyond 60C easily with light use...

I'm really sorry, but I am yet to find that out. The only reason why I know this is because of SetCPU feature, which is underclocking when CPU temperature reaches certain heat.
I've just searched cpu temperature on Play Store and here's is decent looking one... I dunno if it will work or not though...: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...51bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5zYW5lbHMudGVtcGNwdXYyIl0.

Open Terminal Emulator and run cat /sys/devices/platform/omap/omap_temp_sensor.0/temperature. Divide by 1000 and you have temperature in Celsius.
Thank you guys for the information. I think this is all I need. As Dragn4rce mentioned the cut-off is 180F so its nice to know that I was much below that threshold.

Something Ive always wondered, what is an "AVERAGE" battery temperature for cell phones? I ask because im using setcpu and i never knew the temp. to start getting concerned . Right now it is 87.6 degrees with the low clock at 1ghz on demand at all times.

That is normal temperature. Once you use the phone (play games, internet, etc) it will reach around 90-100 degrees.

There are several different applications on the android market which will tell you the temperature of your battery in Celsius and Fahrenheit. That is about average temp, I have two phones sitting next to me right now and they are both in the mid 80's range on the temp. You want to be concerned if your battery reaches temperatures exceeding 101 degrees (Fahrenheit) (38 Degrees Celsius) when doing any activity and especially if it is getting that hot while sitting in standby.
I've had a recent problem with mine the other day I was having a really bad battery drain and the battery was over heating bad(im talking 105 degrees) since then I was able to fix what was draining the battery but I noticed when I use only my car charger (which was meant fire my vibrant) it heats up. I'm thinking the car charger voltage is different.

the highest mine ever got was 56C
i could have probably fried an egg with that
Mine stays around 82 while screen off. On and playing games it got up to 110.
what is the normal temperature for CPU & Battery while charging (AC) and not charging (while in usage, not idle)
while i charge (AC) my GNex my CPU temperature is 51°C ~ 54°C and my Battery temperature is 44°C ~ 46°C. is that normal?
and sometimes when i used my phone for listening music and chatting with whatsapp my CPU and battery temperature just like above 51°C and 44°C. and once i got my CPU temperature 60°C while charging
so my phone is a little beat warm in the back and front, is that normal guys? or that problem maybe comes from custom kernel or custom ROM?
btw thanks
youre normal.
If you know anything about computer's take a second and think about what would happen if you ran your computer without a fan or heatsink. Then be amazed your phone only gets "warm".
okay thanks for the answer guys
and just to make sure we can call the battery and CPU "hot" in what degree? thanks again

the cpu will shut itself down automagically at 110C. but way before that, your thermal throttle will kick in. the thermal throttle will lower your cpu speed to cool itself down.
the battery should usually be below 45C. it can get hotter especially when plugged in and doing something cpu or gpu intensive. the hottest ive gotten my battery is 120F(49-50C), and i dont recommend letting it get that hot.
120C?! That's 248F. And we'll above the boiling point of water. You absolutely sure about that?

just use it normally. if the cpu is too hot, your device will let you know. if you feel that the battery is too hot, unplug it from the usb, let it cool down.
thanks for your advice sir
Mind to share? Dial *#0228# to show.
Here is my numbers(indoor usage) :
When idle: 24C to 27C (75F to 82F)
When general browsing etc.: 28C to 32C (84F to 90F)
When playing video or game: 34C to 39C (93F to 102F)
27C-28C idle for me.
28C-34C when just doing general browsing such as reading XDA.
35C-36C after about 5 minutes of light gaming (e.g. Candy Crush Saga)
Running Wicked v4 with included kernel, underclocked to 1674MHz, contained in a Neo Hybrid case.
Above temps while not charging. Charging temps are much higher.

Wow... I average between 75 and 85F (29-35C) under normal use/idle... I've seen up to 105F (40C) under heavy use or after flashing a ROM and the initial setup.
I think those temperature readings are for the battery. If you want to check the real time CPU temperature check out system tuner. Btw, you have to be rooted in order system tuner to access the temp readings.
Yeah i think those are their battery temp readings. My CPU has heated to over 70 degrees under heavy gaming, and averages 40's and 50's under basic usage.

+1 similar results here. Although just noticed the external thermistor reading from *#0228# is similar to cpu temperature but with lower refresh rate. It is on par with my idle temps but doesn't show real time hikes. So here are my external thermistor readings. While browsing on Wifi at room temperature, it is about 38-40 C and under heavy gaming it goes up to 48C (playing Real Racing 3 about 15 min)

If you are on stock rom it should work. Make sure to dial the exact *#0228#. There will be two temperatures on that page. One on top, which is the battery temp. And one on the bottom which is right under 'external thermistor'. I think, external thermistor reading is either the average cpu temperature or a sensor that is very close to cpu.

Yeah i'm not on stock ROM, but my kernel has a CPU temp reader that checks every second, and its currently at 44, under mild usage.
interesting stuff, I'm planning on buying a S4 soon
It makes me somewhat feel better knowing that mine is just normal like everyone else's.
However, this is really a too "hot" a phone for me. so I am dumping this one for something else.
It was fun ride, but it gets uncomfortable when walking with this little "heat radiator" in my pants pocket. For people having cold hands, it might be a feature, but, too bad, it is not for me. I might check out the Galaxy Tab 3 in few months.
Lol I'm running PAC man w/Chronic Kernel, Apex launcher.
Friday on one of the hottest days in Phoenix 116, in my car w/out A/C using I heart radio on my phone. The radio stopped, after a minute I looked down found it had rebooted it. So I went to the home screen where I have system tuner pro widget and the CPU temp was 200°F... oh crap, pulled battery out left it like that till I got home.
Got home the phone was still hot, so I put both the phone and battery in the fridge for 30 min. Installed the battery after retrieving it and the phone and crossed my fingers and made a prayer. Phone booted up and still operates as advertise:thumbup:.

From GT-I9505 Dial *#0228# I only see battery status and "quick start" button, so I used *#0*#, select sensor, select thermistor, "AP" column (= Android Processor Temp). Is that the same thing your looking to compare?
At boot: 31C
Idle: 36C to 37C
After 3min video playback: 45C peak
Hey guys! I've been playing a PSP emulator on my note 3 and it runs pretty hot. I was wondering if anyone had any idea of how hot is too hot for the cpu. The battery stays pretty cool so I'm not worried about the battery temp, only the cpu. Thanks in advance!
The cpu's in these things will produce some heat when fully ramped up.

The phones have a thermal throttle, so you should be fine unless you adjusted the throttle. In that case you should already know what's safe and not. And just an fyi, 100 degrees f is not hot for a cpu. Just when you feel something warm to the touch, that item is already at about 100 degrees f.
Thanks for your replies guys I really appreciate it!

Do you mean 90 C? Because I expect 90F ambient temperature whole summer and the phone has to be at least that much, even when shutdown. Add a little bit sun exposure and it can easily hit 120-130F without doing anything and I'm not talking Death Valley, Phoenix or Vegas, up there with outside temperatures hovering around 110 F or more, unless you don't come out from AC cooled room at all whole summer, the phone will be hot. If I remember correctly my computer CPU would start throttling somewhere around 80C, but my computer's GPU could go close to 100C. I would think phone is similar, except without active cooling, it probably starts to throttle sooner.
I use Battery Monitor Pro, and it keeps track of daily temps for the week. My lowest is 97.2F, and highest is 104.2F. It gets hottest playing games, but nothing so hot that I have to stop. As previously said the phone has a built in throttle. You can even know when it kicks in as the screen will dim a bit even if you don't have automatic brightness on.
EDIT - And by lowest of 97.2F I mean that is the highest for the day it recorded, not the lowest my phone runs at. Sitting idle with the screen off it's around 86F right now. I've seen it as low as 76F.
My droid incredible would hit 118F on a regular basis. My GN3 so far has stayed below 95F. Live in Phoenix, but it it's just now starting to warm up.

Is Touchwiz DVFS what controls the throttling?
I started another thread that has yielded zero useful information so I thought I would be very explicit this time about what I am looking for. I'm trying to figure out if I should RMA my device or not. My device is currently 98F in a 70F room and I'm doing nothing but typing this message. This seems like a high temperature to me but for all I know it's normal for this device. If other people who use battery monitor apps that include device temperature readings could let me know what temp their Pixel XL is operating at I would appreciate it and it will help me decide whether I should RMA this device or not. Thanks in advance if anyone actually responds with useful information.

That's the same temp as mine after conversion. Maybe that's a normal temp for this phone. Thanks for the response!
The Pixel is designed really differently than my previous phones so I'm having trouble figuring out what is normal on a Pixel. The CPU frequencies that this phone operates at would result in a significant performance lag on my previous phone, for example, but with the Pixel they result in the phone running very smooth and fast.
I have not messed with my frequencies, I'm running OctOS with the Elemental kernel at whatever it ships at.
so I went ahead and let my phone sit in my center console on my way home. for some reason the sun cooks this area of my truck and it's hot to touch even with the AC. After my trip home in 103F weather it was at 42C and did not shut down (I was streaming music over bluetooth from amazon music)
Idle : 30 - 35 C (phone goes below 30 C only when not used for more than 15-20 mins in a very cool room).
Medium Load: 35-40 C
Charging in the car, Charging while using Chrome etc: 40-44 C
Heavy Load: 42-48 C
I have owned Nexus 5, Nexus 6 and Nexus 6p previously. This phone definitely runs hotter than all of them.
I got a replacement from Google, but it is the same problem.

I don't have air conditioning in my car, it was very hot outside, the phone was sitting in a cradle in direct sunlight and I was using the car charger, GPS and Spotify all at the same time--so it's possible my phone got much hotter than 42C when it did shut down. But I used my Nexus 6P and Samsung Galaxy S3 and S6 under identical circumstances and none of them ever overheated and shut down. They also didn't run anywhere near as hot as the Pixel XL when idle. My phone is generally 90-100F in an air conditioned apartment when I'm doing absolutely nothing with it--and multiple people have responded with similar temps for their own phones. If the idle temp for the phone is that high it's going to get super hot when using it under more demanding circumstances.

No problem. Have you observed higher battery drain when the CPU heats up? I'm not sure phones are meant to be that hot. I haven't seen any other flagship heating up so much.

Yes, mine get to 100-105 F range quickly on battery temperature.
Yesterday I had the following youtube, whatsapp, Browser and Gmail - I was switching back and forth and the phone was on 43 C (110 F), (granted I had 1080p video on and was chatting to a friend as well and responding to emails).. I had to then clear all apps and stop using the phone to allow it to cool down. The CPU temperature was over 58 C (measured using elemental X kernal with root access).
Something is wrong with either the 2 NEW Pixel XL phones that Google has provided me OR with the Pixel XL phone in general. There has to be a hardware problem. Maybe some phones are worse than others? Maybe it is a quality control issue?

Thank you. EXKM will put a persistent notification.
I would be very interested to know what your temperatures are under mid-heavy load : both the battery temp and CPU temp.
It's basic knowledge that heat destroys processors and other circuits. I have to use coolers and thermal paste etc in my home computer when it gets too hot. I can't see why it would be different for a phone.

The phone is known to get very hot with Daydream. I'm more concerned with how hot the phone gets under normal operating conditions. My battery goes from 80F to 100F in seconds if I do anything as light as surfing the Internet, reading my email, browsing the XDA app or using the EBay app. 100F seems to be the base temperature of my battery if I am using the phone for anything. I suspect that Google knows these phones won't last more than a couple years. I'm not sure if I should wait to find out or just get rid of this thing while it still works. At least in the Nexus phones you had the option of flashing a custom kernel and changing the governor so the phone would run cooler. You can't do that with the Pixel--the phone runs at the same temps or even worse on a custom kernel. I already tried. I've never owned one but I'm curious if the Pixel XL runs significantly warmer than an iPhone. Or for that matter a flagship Samsung phone--other than the one that blew up, obviously.

So XDA went ahead and showed what the surface temp of their pixel is under their tests

I thought the temp of the cpu temp was high, but compared to other processors this is pretty average/on the low side
http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/archive/lithium_ion_safety_concerns
Turns out that's no where near as hot as it would need to be to be a safety issue for any of us.

I thought the temp of the cpu temp was high, but compared to other processors this is pretty average/on the low side

Turns out that's no where near as hot as it would need to be to be a safety issue for any of us.

if you're concerned why samsung exploded while ours hasn't, they have a good explanation about the construction of those batteries being flawed.

I'm not concerned with safety. I'm sure the Pixel is perfectly safe. I'm concerned this phone is going to eventually bootloop like the Nexus 6P, the Nexus 5X and multiple LG phones. I'm not one of those people who wants to have the latest of everything and if I spend a small fortune on something I actually want it to last for a long time. I do appreciate the links you provided and will look at the info later. Thanks.
