mine heated up pretty bad when I did play games, but I don't know what °C is considered an 'overheat'

Every damn time when I throw in ICS on my Arc S - the overheat problem is there. It's frustrating.. Specially when trying all available custom ROMs.

Anything over 40 degrees is considered harmful to your phone in general.
I've had my phone to warm up to almost 45 degrees. GPS + Data is the culprit for that. Games can also heat the phone up as said before.

Ive only noticed it gets a little hot during charging. I dont play any games

well, how exactly you monitor cpu temp? I only know my battery temp, 37°c right now. when use data temp can raise to 45°c, cellular signal here pretty bad here.

Is there an app for checking cpu temperature I can't recall finding that in settings?

I think it's pretty normal. 35c is also the temperature of your hand(well 37 actually)
get a good sd card class 10 may solve the heat problem
Sent from my LT15i using xda premium
Why? What has the SD to do with heat?
@ OP:
Sometimes mine is almost too hot to touch near the camera when using heavy CPU tasks + HSDPA, so yours is fine.

35 is pretty hot, but I've had 40+ before. Never above 45 though.
Sent from my LT15a using XDA
35 just normal,but dont go above 40,something might happen
from the ARC
Thank you guys!

don't worry about just 35 it's normal but if you reach 40 or 45 it is a problem.
No, also ok

Do you mean the CPU temperature? The Arc don't have a temperature sensor on the CPU. You only can see the battery temperature.
I downloaded an app to improve battery life... It just made my battery temperature go up to 65 degrees Celsius... I removed that app fast as..... And week never use it again... My telephone still works
Sent from my LT18i using XDA
Not all the apps give a correct temperature value. Onetime I used a app that told me that my battery was 95 Celsius, but that was a bad value, haha. When u use my phone a lot, the battery temperature goes to 35 Celsius, but that's normal.
It´s normal.. I´ve 35º too..
arc s getting really hard

First off all, you can volume down the noise from a phone. But gets the phone hot to on stock? Are the voltages set good? Maybe is undervolting a option for you?
My arc is clocked to 1.4Ghz and it runs perfectly even when running games with wifi and bluetooth on playing through a mw600 and mn800 liveview
Sent from my LT15i using xda premium
My phone is everything stock plus rooted. The past few days my arc s has been reaching upto 38 C. I dont understand why.

Strange, i was going to say maybe voltages are off but if its stock it should be fine i would think

Battery heating up pretty bad..

I play a lot of games on my phone and my battery temp jumps to 45 to 47 Celsius and stays there for around half an hour while I play
Is that a bit too hot for the battery to handle?
I'm running cm9 at 1.12 ghz

I don't have a problem or anything.. I'm only worried if this kind of temperature will kill my battery in no time..
where I'm living, the battery's usually around 32 - 35 celsius, so 47 looked pretty huge
Is it abnormal or anything?

phone temp can reach upto 50C.. i have seen in my own phone..phones shifts to safe mode and shuts down as soon as max temp is reached..so mid 40s is fine..
how about the vsel? higher vsel produce heat.
Second idea is an app that prevents android from going to sleep (had this some time ago and got permanent >50°C).
my battery goes pretty hot only when continously using 3G / HSDPA to access internet / downloading.
but it seems other device suffers the same problem too..

Ok here is something that happened to me, couple of days ago I had around 60 missed calls, when I saw that my phone was very hot, when I saw the temp of the battery I couldn't believe, it was 67c.... so I played around to see how would act but my phone was acting normally,just the battery drained in no time. So I guess temp like 40-50c is no big deal.

htc one x 4.0.4 heat ?

I have been waiting for 4.0.4 to fix the 3 dots problem and reduce the heat , the battery got better , but the heat is still so much , when gaming or opening wi fi or the mobile network for a short time , I am on Stock with the latest OTA ' so i wanted to know is it something usuall for all stock users , or it is something with the mobile , so at least i will try to get a replacement

I don’t play intense 3D games, only few simple 2D puzzle type games, With those games the phone only gets barley warm (nothing out of the ordinary). When using WiFi for browsing, youtube or audio streaming its even better. NOw I'm on Viper X 4.0.4 custom ROM. but I had stock 4.0.3 for couple of months before that and I didn't notice a difference.
Stock everything and battery regularly hits 110° both charging and just listening to music off charger
Monitor the heck out if it but runs hot. Had no real heat problems with gs3.

Mine gets quite hot too. Before the latest update, I noticed it would hit 56-57 °C and the battery health would say 'Overheat', but now it's better. I haven't seen it get over 48 and the screen doesn't heat up so much (before, I actually had to let it cool for a while because it would burn my fingers), but the battery isn't too different - it goes down about 1% / minute when playing THD or graphically-intensive games.

Is it for real or is it just an general rule in Android? I mean, is it really not supposed to go into overheat, or does the system just report that for all phones and the Tegra is fine even at higher temps?

htc have added that, once the battery hits 48c it counts as over heating and stop charging until in drops below 48c, most batteries are meant to be kept under 60c so 48 seems a bit low, maybe you could email HTC about it.

I have contacted HTC and they have confirmed everything is fine as long as the temperature remains under 60 °C, just like you said :good:

Note 2 idle temperature 90 degrees Fahrenheit?

I just got a replacement phone from t mobile and it seems to have a heating issue. My other note didn't get this warm while idleing. This screenshot shows Idle temperature of my note 2. No apps running in the background, can you guys report your idle temp, so I can get a significant temperature average.

I'm not sure what constitutes normal but it seems my phone tends to idle 10 or so degrees cooler than that.

Maybe I'm just being paranoid . But I do know it definitely runs hotter than my other device. and it is very annoying to have a device this hot while hardly doing anything on it. I wouldn't consider it overheating by any means but it is still definitely notably
Hotter than it should be. so I'm just going to send it back to T Mobile and request a new one.

Man that's perfectly within specs. Start worrying when is 90 degrees CELCIUS 90 degrees f is less than body temperature. You are worrying about nothing. The processor doesn't even start getting problems until like 75c and above,,... What do you expect your phones operating temperature to be 50 degrees f! Walk around with and Ice pack in your pocket. Plus when the device gets hot enough it shuts down anyways. You cant possibly burn that phone without putting a flame to it.
See that temperature normal.

My note ll was getting really hot on idle when temperature was around 80f here in Chicago. I have no idea why but now seems to be normal.

Cpu Temp

Hey all, any idea how hot it is safe for the cpu to run? Using trickster mod to read the cpu temp after a few hours my cpu can reach close to 70 degrees Celsius and the screen feels hot. That seems a little insane. I thought it was aosp rooms causing this but after switching to i747z I can confirm that is not the cause of the heat. What do your cpus run at? Any ideas?

The battery temp or the cpu temp?
Mine tends to get hot too, sometimes almost too hot to touch.
But never over 70F.
Usually between 20F and 60F, it tends to stay around 50+ during activity.
Im not really comfortable with how hot this thing gets sometimes. I'd be downright alarmed if my cpu temp was over 100F.
Oops, that's battery temp
CPU temp seems to stay around 40C
My bad!

Turns out at 70 samsung starts throttling the kernel to cool it down so anything up to 70 celsius is totally normal
