Helllo,
I got the T-Mobile HTC Mr yesterday and I've noticed the aluminum on the back gets very warm. I downloaded cpu z on the phone and while charging, the temperature is about 45/46*C.
Is t here any cause to be concerned?
Thanks,
Crazysah

Sounds fairly normal to me. Mine gets warm when charging as well. If it bothers you and you don't need it to charge as quick, I find that using a 1 amp charger instead of the 1.5 it comes with doesn't heat it up nearly as much. I figured that out because I use my old m7 charger to charge it at my desk and the one it came with to charge it by my bed
Its normal

113F is a bit high. Mine rarely hits that high even with its 1.5A charger while my M7 regularly hit that high with its 1A charger. I'd consider exchanging it as we know from history that the camera sensor doesn't like heat.
It is usual things. you can turned off your wifi or data connenction when it unused.

The other day I had my phone on my car charger I picked it up and the back was very hot.The phone was only on charge for like 20 mins and it was only like 40% battery. I looked at my temperature and it said 44celsius and I then installed battery indicator to see what it is in farenheit and it said like 110. (can't remember exactly) I've never felt it get this hot before and I was wondering what temperature is to hot for the phone? Thank you for your help. Also what could cause this? A short maybe in the phone?
Were you running a cpu intensive app at that time? When I have my phone charging and I'm streaming videos in 4g, it gets pretty hot sometimes.
Personally I can handle quite a bit of hot but Mila Kalunis on Natalie Portman in Black Swan was just too hot.
Well come to think of it I ran smart bench 2010 and speed pi on it and the set it down and when I picked it back up it was very hot. I guess it's normal for running intensive CPU things. I just never felt it that hot before
Yeah it gets hot when your charging it and in a bad signal area.
If you don't want to worry about charging your phone all the time, You could buy those 2 Epic batteries off ebay, There was a huge thread in the other section. Well worth it because it comes with a additional wall charger.
These phones are pretty heat resistant. This past september just after I gotmy epic I left it charging overnight on the window sill next to my bed. I live in phoenix, when I woke up I checked my phone and immediately dropped it because the glass on the front was so hot. The setcpu widget (was on di08 overclocked to 1.2) read 168 degrees F. Phone was still 100% functional at that temp and I've never suspected that it was damaged in any way.

I'm not sure if anyone has noticed it so far.. when charging the phone, and you do intensive WIFI/3G downloads (like updating apps from Play for example), the back of the phone at the camera area becomes really hot after awhile, and the LED indicator, which normally shows a always-on Orange light, will start to blink orange-green-orange-green...
After a day of experimenting, i think that the orange-green blinking is an indicator to tell us that the phone is running too hot, and needs to cool down before charging can continue..
anyone has similar experience?
Camera = hot spot

I have beed using one x for last 2 days, charged it twice fully but it does not get too hot, a lill hot while charging but no bliking led as you said
*#*#4636#*#* > choose Battery Information
The temperature and status will be listed there. I'm guessing that it stops charging at 50c

it doesn't get that hot if you're not using the phone while charging, but try charging AND using the wifi/3G at the same time. within 10 minutes, my phone got pretty hot at the camera area.
I had a flashing led last night too

do you mean while charging or with normal use itself ?
All smartphones have this problem including SGS2 and Iphone 4s.
If you use max brightness + games for more than 10 mins it will get very warm no matter what's the brand or model you use.
The only treatement is to decrease brightness or downclock the CPU with SetCPU (temp profiles)

install battery indicator and check the how miuch the battery is heated, I have checked it quite a few times and it should within 30-32 C which is normal
dont find it getting heated with normal use, I am keeping the player on for many hours and calls etc, only when I charge it gets a bit warm but again not hot I would say

Not excactly but it became also hot for all when I charge
Orange green indicator will happen when you are charging the phone (orange) and when you have a notification (missed call, msg, downloaded app). Heating up happens naturally when you do work on your phone while charging. It will happen even if you do nothing while charging.
A Dutch website called Tweakers.net tested the temperature in comparison to other phones, and found it got hotter than other phones when used intensively. See attachment image to see what I mean.
What is says: "toestel" = device. "frontpage" means they let the browser display the frontpage of their website. Shadowgun is an intense 3D game from the market. "Shadowgun + lader" means playing Shadowgun while connected to the charger.
I only experience the high temperature when playing games on my phone for 5 mins onwards. Charging is fine. I think mine is working pretty fine considering I resides in Singapore where everyday is summer.

I forgot to mention they also say that this heat is felt through the entire body of the phone, as where on other handsets the heat is concentrated in one place.
It's perfectly normal dude!
It's the screen that gets hot and because the One X has a 4.7'' screen it's all over the phone

i never leave the screen over half the brightness so hope its just this
i'm starting to be concerned honestly, Desire/Nexus 1 are operating at their maximum thermal capacity and it used to get hot too, Desire HD has snapdaragon2 with very relaxed thermals and to be honest i don't like to have a hot rod in my hands, the DHD always feels pleasantly cold
the thermal image posted by DomCowell seems fine and normal when compared with other phones....i dont know

the phone is warm most of the time.. at leat the unit i have is....
Hello,
I want to know whether it is normal, if I play a game like ShadowGun THD, after 2 minutes the phone is about 40 to 45C?
I use the Gauge Battery Widget for testing, because that shows an immediate temperature.
I also have a test.
battery recharge
Put in airplane mode.
Brightness at 100% put
Stand 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes the phone on standby, then immediately turned on the phone, the app started, and looked at how warm the phone was. And he was about 31.8C
Is this normal or not? because at play after 2 minutes the phone all at 40 to 45C.
Sincerely,
djbosanac
It is normal, but I don't consider it "OK". It is overheating badly.
The worse thing is it will also not charge when over 49... (it will discharge fast in fact)
Mine started getting that hot and caused the simcard contacts to warp. So I sent it back for a replacement. I do think the later updates cooled it down a bit but by that time the damage was done

Hmm so it isent ok? that is about overheating of 31.8C on standby and if i play on 40 to 45C ?
Is there a way that i can resolve this problem or not?
Or do i must bring the phone back for a new one ?????

When I was on 1.28 I had the same problem, in fact it went up to 50 degrees regularly.
After the first 1.29 update it was much much better.
Updated to 1.29.401.11 about a week ago and it seems to have gone back to how it was on 1.28!
48 is when the overheating green/red notification kicks in anything under 48 is fine.

Uhm is that automaticly, that you get a notification when the phone is overheating.
But is isent so damageable? for my phone or?
@PurpleRob how stuppid can they be, to set is as it was before the latest update? so that you have again a overheated phone ?

While on charge as soon as it hits 48c it flashes green/red, when that starts it stops charging till the temp drops below that limit.
While off charge the battery should be good up to 60 the CPU is set to shut down the phone at 99 c

I regularly see 50-55ºC even while browsing. But mine will still charge (1.29.401.11) maybe they raised the threshold? It's never shutoff on me but I've heard the upper limit for the phone was 60ºC.
I've contacted Expansys about this issue as when my phone stays above 50ºC for a while the screen yellows right above the home key. Hoping for a replacement, mainly because a case I used has already scratched the screen but it'd be nice is the yellowing and overheating was fixed.
When i check the temp_tj it says my cpu is 43,5 degrees right now, and i'm not doing anything ?
aren't some people reporting battery temp and other cpu temp ?
What software version are you running? My guess is 1.29.401.11 did something that while fixes the screen flickering, it causes the CPU to get too hot.
fellas,
the only solution currently available to reduce the heat is to use corecontrol app and change it to dual-core.
u'l notice considerable difference ofcourse without any loss in the performance..
what does it means, when you plugged in your phone to a load up again, and you get a red light? is that because the battery is full, or to heat? because when i unplug it, it is oke..
Charging
The red light when you plug it in is the phone simply telling you that it is charging, it will turn green when fully charged!

thanks, the phone makes me a little bit angry
More and more things are going wrong.
What temp does everyone's phone at? I recently got a new cable and i was charging at around 37C-38C the phone felt pretty warm at that point too, and the estimated charge time was practically cut in half from when I used my old charger. I wanna say my old charging temp was maybe 34C.
I know hotter is worse, and the slower the charge is better, but how much worse would it be at that little temp difference?
Well, this temperature shouldn't be a problem, as the cpu temp is getting mostly around 55C and I must say that it's a great device in terms of heating.
The whole metal body is getting warm, but only one spot like in the other phones, so you should care about the temperature.
Just check if m8 supports fast charge, but I think it does.
Please keep in mind that processor in lg g2 is reaching even to 70C, so below 40 it isn't so much.

Hi!
Yesterday purchased HTC One M9 and I recognized that it's way too much overheating than my old one Samsung Note2.
It's normal that after browsing on the web I can't handle it normally in my hand?
Battery temperature being 37-40 celcius. But all device is way too hot.
What is your experience?
Thanks,
Domas
Not that I had problem with it
I know it is hot.... Remember the body is aluminium which generate heat more than Sammy phone. It's not gonna melt anything but kinda annoying. Try a case and battery cooling app from playstore. It helps a bit

do the OTA update .. the firmware it ships with is Beta and runs hotter than normal
It's not beta, it has higher cpu clock 2,0 GHz that's the difference. And it throttles faster. The new one has 1,6 GHz. And it isn't getting that hot ?
I did the ota update and mine hasn't gotten hit since .js

Mine doesn't get hot on normal use or watch videos. But it get hot when I have a lot of apps to update. But, it cools down after and not very often I have that many apps update at once.
Mine gets warm even under normal usage. It gets very warm using sat nav or anything intensive.
Mine got to 51c during a backup: extremely hot!

Mine gets very warm when running Google Navigation or connecting to HTC's very own RE camera. However, neither these are new since I have the same problem with the m7. I use a car vent mount in the car when using Navigation to cool down the phone at the same time.
Mine gets very hot under regular usage, up to 45-50 degrees.
I'm on firmware 1.36.709.3
Can you post your firmware versions?
Thank you all.
I'm on latest firmware .33 and mine has gotten as high at 175*F. I put it right in my freezer which is at 23*F and it cooled in 10 minutes down to 32*F and warmed back up to a normal temp.
My firmware is 1.32.401.17
It gets hot under stress,other then that it gives off normal warmth
Thank you.
Anyone knows what is the latest firmware? and the one supposed to take care of the overheating issue?
Mine overheats a lot while on charge and heavy use when I have screen on for an hour or more
