Hi.
I bought Z1 compact a week ago. And I am very pleasd with the phone. There is Just one thing. I notice battery temperatura on use( wifii and screen on) is about 30- 40 C. Is that Normal?
Tnx

Check for apps running in background, trace & kill apps u don't use and using heavy ram/cpu usage. See if Overheat app is running. Room temperature also plays an important role.
Just bought my z1 compact 3 days ago and my battery temps are 33.9 deg. Celsius on idle, played dead trigger for 20min 41.6 deg. Celsius, Eternity Warriors 3 with WiFi on 44 deg. Celsius and then downloading with torrent on LTE 41 deg. Celsius. There were no apps running on the background. I have 7 days replacement, should i get it replaced? Or are these temperature normal for this phone. I never got this hot with my previous china phone with mtk 6589 cpu and pwrvr sgx544 gpu.
Same here. But I noticed I got 41C only when using WiFi and flash games and on wifi and browsing I get about 37 C
BTW. Is there a way to close all apps? On Samsung there was a organizer like app
I think these temperatures are normal for this phone, ive read the review of z1c on notebookcheck and my temps and their result on their tests are close.

Like the topic says..
My Defy usually very hot whenever I surf the internet using 3G. Sometimes temperature hit around 45°C.. When idle on 2G, it stay around 35°C which is normal.
Anybody experience temperature above 45°C ? I'm running setvsel to minimise the voltage use and at 1000mhz seemed doesn't cool it down.
Sent from my awesome Moto Defy: Stock Rooted Gingerbread 2.3.3 - XDA Premium
mine 800 mhz reaching till 41 c without running setvsel.
i think its normal.
and don't forget the warms of the hands are part of it.
when i'm playing modern combat 2 less than 15 min get's hot.
The hottest mine has gone was 50degrees..usingit as a wifi hotspot
But the temp drops to 40 - 45 if there is full 3G signal...
I have reached temperature above 40 C occasionally. Heck I've reached 45 when using my defy as a router for the wife's iPod (immediately stop and throw the defy in a bucket of water for a minute afterwards..temp drop down to 26!!) .
If i am using HSDPA, temp will get high, 39 -41 Celcius is expected after an hour of heavy browsing. very rarely went above it unless downloading a big file.
But it is much better compared to before, right now i am using the central europe baseband running 2.3.4-134. When I am using stock UK or even SEA baseband, temp reached 43 after just 15 minutes of browsing.
I am in Indonesia, and found the Central Europe BB is the best for me.
I only get high temp from HSDPA, never from wifi or gaming. Played 3d games till my battery almost out and it only reached 40. Played a movie for 2 hours and the temp is only at 39/40. Transfer 4GB of data using moto portal Wi-Fi to my PC for 2 hour, temp is 37 and this is done today.
Here is my take, a temperature of 41 in using the defy is expected when you are using your HSDPA, anything above 41 is considered HOT for me.
This device tend to be hotter then say my friend Galaxy S. probably since it is water resistant so the heat/air outlet is limited.
dont worry too much, you can do what i do and dunk the defy in a glass/bucket of cold water should you deemed the device is too hot.
I'm on leaked 2.3.4, and I have highest temp when surfing on 3G 44 c, when idle the temp is about 28 c.
I would hope and wish this Defy will stand up at 50 c since it name of dust and water resistant mean no air or any ventilation in or out from this device. But sometimes it worried me of holding it when it becoming hotter. Normally I will open the battery cover after I finished my games or surfing and lay it down for a few minutes.
Note: I hardly get anywhere near 40 c when I was using Froyo 2.2.2 french retail version. Perhaps this gingerbread run 1000Mhz by default caused its temperature rise quicker.

I live in Texas USA. Here in the summer the temp' is above 100°(38°c) Fahrenheit 90% of the time. One day my wife left her cliq XT in the car. When we returned the screen was showing 'cool down mode'. When the home screen came up and I look at the temp', it was showing 58°C. I was shocked! Her phone still works properly.
So I think these phones can survive extreme temperatures.

Typically mine runs about 30C (86F). On a really hot/humid day here in Iowa, and while charging, it will reach around 45C (113F). I've got my defy running with setvsel at [email protected]/[email protected]/[email protected]

This look promissing! The phone actually will auto switch to 'cool down mode'.
Probably the mode will triggered above 60c. Thanks for the input..
Mine is above 35°C whith 1,3ghz/78vsel.

mine is sat idle at 26c but using 3g on a hot day i have seen it hit 45c it is running at:
300Mhz 22

My Galaxy Nexus often increases its heat to around 42 degrees Celsius (108 fahrenheit) constantly with minimal use (light 2D gaming for about 5 minutes), surfing the app store and playing around with the menus for a 10 minutes. I have installed the battery monitor widget application (free) which tells me everything and gives a timeline of different temperatures the phone reaches.
Constantly the phone is 30 degrees Celsius (86 Fahrenheit) and above, even during minimal use of apps (only running one app at a time, I selected the phone to only use 2G networks and it has no data plan).
This seems very very hot for a phone. My Galaxy S2 doesn't get past 28 degrees celsius (82 fahrenheit) under very heavy use whilst on 3G. My HTC Mozart is the same as the Galaxy, it barely gets above this temperature. Is the Nexus supposed to get this hot?
So far my battery life is set at 17 hours battery life with minimal phone/texting on 2G (literally 2 text messages and 1 phone call per day), 30 minutes of light 2D gaming and zero music or videos being played. There are no programs running in the background and the brightness is set at 40% or below.
EDIT: Even on standby without use for hours the phone has NEVER gotten below 26 degrees celsius (78 fahrenheit) .
I'm hoping someone could share info on the heat of their devices/the normal range of heat that these kinds of devices should be putting out. It sounds interesting that this much heat can actually be created, more elaboration would be better though.
bumping for answers for op.
I noticed a dramatic difference in the temperature from my evo 4g. Some potential causes:
* high stock voyages (there is a great thread in the Dev section about uv kernels)
* when running modaco's brightness patch it got worse for me.
* since it happens with the screen off, it is probably not tht...

What's your ambient temperature?
Absolute temperature doesn't tell us much, what's useful is the delta between device temp and ambient temp.

The room temperature is air conditioned around 18 to 25 degrees celsius (64F to 77F). The phone should not be hitting above this range, especially on standby. It should not reach 40 degrees Celsius whilst texting/app surfing on 2G.
Same issue here.
My Nexus One's battery is at 24C (plugged in, not charging).
And by GNex's battery is at 37C (plugged in, charging)
Okay 37 is fine but 42 is not :/
right now I have flashed a few roms and am browsing tapatalk.. at 34 Celsius. Just applied my undervolts though so we will see

Mine increase more than 42c when using too.
Just bought the phone and mine seems to overheat too much... going to buy a case....
Battery says 46 degrees cel...
also i noticed on galaxy nexus it get too hot around the camera on the back and the earpiece on the front.
noticed the problem mainly when in an area with weak reception. or while charging the phone even with good reception.
its something with the radioROM or hardware.
any suggestions??!!
normal
Its normal! 76F when not in use 90-101 in use 101-120 with charger and using . I called Samsung . My euro gs2, at&t gs2 and my skyrocket all have the same temps remember this is a very thin plastic phone with battery right there behind tiny plastic cover . Think of it like this dose ur computer get hot when u use it?? ? Have u ever even thought bout that? No cause ur not holding it in ur hand .
+1
This is a dual core phone, it is going to run hot because it's a dual core processor with no cooling other than dissipation. It's not a problem unless your phone is actually crashing because of it. I've seen mine get up to 46C during long periods of gaming/charging.
I expect the hardware has been developed to tolerate these temperatures or we'd see a lot more "my phone overheated and now it's a brick" posts or even "my phone exploded into flames" posts. Have only seen a couple of the former and none of the latter.
Running hot after root, rom and maybe 'incorrect charger'
So like others here my GSM version Galaxy Nexus phone is quite hot at the top right corner back and front, near the camera. Only when the screen is on. Battery drops very rapidly too.. like 1% every 30-45 seconds...
This heat is brand new. I recently rooted and romed the device after the recent ICS update cause signal loss when the screen was off. I tried AOKP, various kernals and have now returned to the original backup of android 4.0.2. The heat continues with the screen being on, through all of this. Doing nothing, wifi connected... just on. Screen off no issues. No apps are installed except stock. Default Kernal again.
I also noticed i plugged the phone in with my blackberry playbook charger at the same time as all of this. The specs on that are playbook charger output is 5V @ 1.8A..
I notice a few other people posting about this so want to know if this might be rom related somehow, or if perhaps ive done something to the hardware from the charger. I've tried a spare battery that was not used with the charger at all and the heat continues.
There was no heat at all like this before this last 24 hours so its not 'normal use'. Promise Hope someone has some possible suggestions to try
Mine is at 31 right now.. listening music and xda... if play games it goes to ~35 if I plug it in it gets hotter than 40...

Hi Everyone,
Just wondering how your Nexus 7 runs under the new OS? I notice my device getting higher temperature than before, especially when playing some games. For example, with CPUTEMP and Smash Hit, CPU's temp was around 50-55C on Kitkat but now it is 65-75 on Lollipop.
Would be great if someone can run the same test and see if you get high temperature on this game.
Thanks
I can attest to this myself. I use the same app (on a N5 and N7) and I've noticed that the feel in the hand, while doing normal stuff with the same usage pattern, seemed hotter than normal. So I launch the CPUTEMP app and run the overlay, put the N7 to sleep for 15 minutes to idle. Temp starts around 36 C when first turning on the screen, then it ramps up to 44 - 50. Then while actually using the device, (e.g. surfing the web, email, basic stuff) the temps will go up to the 50s and 60s easily. If I leave it at rest on the homescreen after using the tablet, it idles around the low to mid 40s. While video chatting online with someone (hangouts / skype / etc) it will ramp up to 70s, then 80s, and finally cap out at 95 C. (5 degrees before S4Pro SoC maximum?) A video chat will last 2 - 2.5 hours on a fully charged battery, and the heavy SoC throttling affects the frame rate / responsiveness of both my front / back camera preview during vid chat and the entire OS. Downloading an app or two brings the temp 55 - 61, and then installing them (due to AoT compile) from 61 to 72.
The same goes for my N5 also on Lollipop, to a lesser degree, but nonetheless, it runs higher average temps than I noticed while running KitKat. Both devices appear to drain battery quicker on Lollipop, especially during use. That's not even considering LTE / mobile data use, since these days I'm here at home using WiFi all the time.

Yes. You are correct. Even i face the same issue. The device gets heated even on playing candy crush / angry birds which was not the case with kitkat 4.4.4.
I am still under the period where I can have this replaced so im asking if these recordings are normal. 49+ deg celsius when was using the quick charger while making some spotify music offline. Around 900mb on wifi. 43+ was when i was playing hearthstone on LTE. Also having trouble reaching 3h screen time with moderate use. Also worth noting that i think this is the processor heating up, not the battery.
Should i have this replaced?
Every mobile processor in the world will heat up on heavy load content, we are not using feature phones anymore, and this is our reality now, smartphones get warm and hot and we need to live with it =]
Also, this is where im at right now after an hour and 10 use at 85% at 41 deg celsius

Thanks but isnt 49 degrees celsius a little too much on a quick charge while being used?

It isn't too much, the battery is receiving electricity at a faster rate which causes the phone to heat up and then using the phone on top of that produces even more heat. It is also recommended not to use it while it is on the charger (the fast charge ones).
So this is just normal then?
Hello. I have noticed that my mi5s has some lag while playing asphalt 8 even at medium settings. After doing some benchmarks with 3DMark I realized that there is a drop in performance at relatively low temperature.
At "Ice storm unlimited" I have a score around 30,000 when the cpu is cool. However when I hit a 36 degrees of Celsius I am around 27,400. Furthermore, if the temperature increase at 39 Celsius , the performance drops even more and 23,500. This gets even worse when I hit 40+ Celsius where the score drops under 20,000 and if I semi-covered it with a cloth to reach higher temp it gets around 16,600 at 45 degrees of Celsius. After that it need to cool down to 33 degrees of Celcius to restore its performance
Needless to say that these temperatures are very easy to reach when you are playing a game. Has anyone noticed something similar? Any suggestions?
I have the 3/64 version with the 7.7.20 developers. Same issues were faced with the 7.7.6. . I have not tested in depth with the global rom but I think I had similar issues (it was only for a day). The room temperature is around 30 degrees of Celsius.

If you're okay with the high temperatures then you could disable all the CPU thermal throttles from any kernel manager app, though you need to be rooted.

I was thinking something similar but I do not want to disable it fully but just increasing the threshold by 2 or 3 degrees of Celcius. I am rooted but I am not sure how I can do the modification. From some quick search that I have done there should be a file named thermal-mplampla.conf (I do not remember the exact name) where you can modify it but I am not sure by how much should I change the respective lines for just a 2 or 3 degrees increase.
Anyone that have been playing around with thresholds and have any tips or guide before messing around?

First of all, that isn't the CPU temperature but the battery temperature. This phone actually has fantastic thermals due to its aluminum back and well placed SOC. No wonder you're getting throttling, you live in 30°C and you're playing games, what do you expect? Every phone on the face of the earth will throttle to that level. Just saying, your CPU is running probably around 70-80°C while playing intense games. So if you continue to play, it will eventually heat up the rest of the phone.
40°C destroys a batteries lifetime and 45°C everyday will reduce your battery within half a year which is why they throttle phones. Hell my One plus 3 in 30°C weather will throttle like crazy and that's the best phone in terms of throttling. Its normal. Stop playing crappy games like Asphalt 8 in 30°C and go enjoy the sunny weather instead.

Actually the truth is somewhere in the middle. I have used an app called "cpu temperature" but if I check the battery temperature it shows exactly the same degrees. So I guess it mistakenly shows the temperature of the battery. Do you have a more reliable app to check cpu temp?
On the other hand, 30 degrees of Celcius is not that high. In the winter usually we do not let the room temperature drop under 20 degrees since we use heating. Nevertheless, I will let it as it is for now and check again after 5 or 6 weeks where the temperature should be cooler.

You need a rooted phone to see actual CPU temperature. The best way to do this is get an app called simple system monitor (blue app icon) and go in temperature zones and you'll find a bunch of sensors there. There's a bunch of them that are for the CPU and you kinda have to figure it out yourself (I don't know exactly which one it is, one of the tz_sensor ones) by running a CPU benchmark and finding the ones that show the highest temperature. If you were to remove thermal throttling, and maxed out the CPU and GPU, you will see your CPU hit around 100-110°C and your phones gonna shut down for protection. And I'm in Canada so 30°C is extremely high haha.
