Nexus 5X Heat (normal or problem?) - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everybody, before, I know there are several posts on the xda about the phone get so warm, but I think I have a different question. At this point in my country are about 35/36º Celsius, which obviously makes the phone warm up a bit, but i without open any application the temperature reaches 42/43 Celsius, but it will be normal or is a situation to worry ? I see quite a few posts from people saying that the mobile phone reaches 60º, the maximum I could get on my was to 48 and had several applications open and was playing a game. Like all others, the mobile phone is quite hot in the sensor zone and sometimes is hard to use, I even installed an app to close all applications to save battery and cool the phone. Therefore, it is normal but all phones warm up a little when they are being used aggressively, but it's normal after unlocking and without any open application temperatures reach 42/43 celsius? Should i send for warranty or not because this is normal?
Thank you in advance any help :good:

This phone is going to heat up considerably in that temperature due to the 808 CPU. If you spend a lot of time outside or in a warmer environment, there may not be anything you can do. Depending on the case, that may also keep the phone running warm as well. Try an RMA and see what happens though.

If the ambient temperature is high then the battery temperature will start high as well. I'm assuming you're monitoring the battery temperature since that is what most apps will report.

Unless it's Greenify, get rid of it. Apps like that can cause more harm than good, and your phone might actually be running hotter due to apps closing/launching more than necessary.

Ok, i will take your help, i unistall the app i use to see the temperature and now i use greenify..
Sorry if this is a stupid question, i switch from a micro sim(old phone) to a nano sim ( nexus 5x) but yesterday the SIM stop worked, i have a new one now and looks like my phone dont get so hot, is this possible or is this my imagination?

Do you have better signal with the new SIM? If the phone has to constantly search for signal, that uses a lot of power and heats up the phone.

HTC Desire overheating

My HTC Desire has a serious issue with battery life. Although I shut down most programs and connections, the battery lasts about 3 hours only. Also I have noticed that the phone gets quite hot on the back by the micro SD card. Do you think that my phone is faulty?
I posted the same question on,
http://www.htcdesireforum.com/htc-desire-troubleshooting/desire-overheating/
but not many inputs, does anyone else got the same issue?
mmmm 3 hours? i think its faultly.. my one last more or less a day with normal usage. gets warm when i use it a lot.
checkout the thread on excessive battery usage before you deem it as faulty.

There are many tips in this thread and how to identify which application is using the most battery, and which are causing the device not to sleep correctly. Its a long thread, but worth the read.
If it is only lasting three hours no matter what you do, and it's getting THAT hot, then yeah... I would say there is an issue. Maybe it is shorting out somewhere. I would take it back if I were you. It can have poor battery life under VERY heavy use, but that's still pretty extreme... and I have never seen my battery get above 39c.
I had this last night, but only while I was charging the phone. I pulled the battery & it was around the microSD that was hottest. Took it out & replaced n rebooted...haven't had any problems since.
Doub't the microSD caused the problem but might be worth a try. Either that or when I rebooted I didn't start the app that caused the overheating.
Does it overheat if you just do nothing with it when u reboot?

Hot Battery
I received my HTC on Tues night and within half an hour the palm of my hand was burning inside and yet still not healed (Thurs AM). P10 of the safety guide says this is nonionizng radiation (sounds unhealthy). I believe that the aerial is just beside the SIM and card slot and holding this next to your palm is warned against in the manual. Bit strange since that is how you would hold a PDA. However, I informed my service provider (Three) and they said it must be a fault so are replacing (with new apparently). Slighlty concerning however I will reserve the option to refund until I see the new handset. I might add that I have HTC's XDA Guide for bus. and that battery also gets very hot, but not as quick! Why put an aerial next to a battery, the combination of the two, I beleive is casuing heat issues.

I would seriously reconsider your usage when charging. The highest mine has gotten was 40c. Just take into account that the bottom of your screen will also get near that temp, so be very careful

highest I've seen is 38°C, I believe above 45 is extremely hot
I've had to send mine back to HTC for "stress testing" as mine can't even get past 33°C without going into a reboot loop . It gets that hot just with some light use of GPS + Maps or Mobile Internet + Browsing.
Hopefully they at least replace the MoBo or possibly even the whole phone doubtful though...
hehe, my active holder in the car is in such a place I aim the vent/blower at the back of the Desire. No overheating while navigating with the airco on!
But I guess having something this fast (1ghz) in such a small package which uses quite some power as well means it's going to be hot real fast.
Although I don't find the Desire -that- much warmer/hotter than some of the other phones I've owned.
I guess when your Desire gets really hot (over 40C-45C or something) you can always give HTC or the warranty service a call. Perhaps when some parts don't sit properly on the cpu (something like a cooling frame or whatever), temperatures will rise a lot. And might even cause the phone to reboot.
Hi, I had similar problems that is very evident when i started playing games. I sent back to HTC 3 times before they finally replaced my mobo. I suggest you guys do the same

Tmobile version overheating

I've been reading the other thread about overheating of the S4. Mine will get warm to hot just by downloading from the Play Store and playing withe the menu. I tried a factory reset, microsd reformat, etc.
Does anyone else with the tmobile version notice the phone getting hot?

Sure - any huge data usage, (especially with 3g/4g/lte) will cause the phone to heat up in the cpu area - this can be coupled with high graphics usage, and/or high ram usage -
electricity generates heat as a waste product - it wont get too hot, but it will heat up.
My gs2 would occasionally get so hot i didn't want to hold it or let it sit in my pocket
My new gs4 got plenty warm when redownloading my podcasts, and durring the first google device restore.

For me so far, the only time it is noticeably warm is when I use the camera for an extended period of time. Haven't played any intense games on there though like NFS.
I find that my microsd card get hot when accessed a lot, but that's not new, same as in my S3.
Mine is hot too. I haven't done anything though.

I believe there is firmware update that is compatible with the I9505 Tmo variant. You may want to do some searching and check it out.
The main S4 forum is a good place to start.

Heat is not the same thing as over-heating. These chips have a maximum operating temperature rating of upwards of 70c. There are a myriad of reasons why any two devices would operate at higher or lower temperatures including ambient temperature, radio actions (high-throughput or low signal recovery), and of course running processes. There will always be people who think their phone is "too hot" since it is a purely subjective claim.
yeah honestly is at 40c and thats beyond hot!!

Yep, mine heats up on the top back of the phone. But it doesn't overheat when I'm on the phone though. I talked for over two hours and the phone stayed cold. But if I play around with menu and installing apps, it gets noticeably warm. I used S2 for two years and didn't remember it getting this warm.

mine heats up probably i am using 4g data and voip app to call people
but it heats up top Samsung name area like u can feel it in like 10m lol
Like others mine heats up at the top back at times but never to a serious, uncomfortable degree. Pretty sure my Blaze would get hotter at times from less taxing usage.
So hopefully this is just software related issues and not hardware.....

galaxy note 8.0 heating too much?

I just bought mine yesterday and this is my first tablet. I like it mainly for the size and the s-pen. During my 1 day of use I immediately feels that it's heating up a little too fast around the left side (maybe this is where the battery is). Do you guys have the same problems.
Thanks.

I think that is where the CPU is. I'd install a terminal shell and run the "ps" command to see what process(es) are using CPU.
update:
I've installed Diagnosis App and it's showing ~40C when playing games... Is this normal temp for a tab?
Thanks
Is it normal for a device to heat up under heavy use? Clearly yes. Is it normal for a device to heat up while sitting there with nothing going on? Clearly no. Does your computer heat up when you use it? This is no different, except that there is no fan to help keep it cool. If you are not seeing any problems, reboots, crashes, or abnormal battery drain, why are you worried?
I think CPU problem.
I think the problem is can be CPU.
Please check your CPU

Totally normal. About 104F, that's not even close to hot. Don't even need to start getting worried until you hit 120 or 130F.

I agree with you but, Do you think it's normal when I start to use it and after 10 minutes of web browsing, facebook and downloading apps it increases its Temperature level around 10°C? This is my first tablet and I'm worried about that. I compare the temperature with my Razr i and their behaviors are similar but, comparing with a Sony Tablet S it reaches 30°C doing the same processes. I hope you can help me, I just made a phone call to the shop where I bought it for a device replacement, but it wouldn't have any case if all Note 8 devices present the same problem.
Thank you very much!
This is now my second 8.0 and I really feel that this runs much cooler temperatures. Writing notes for several hours or casual playing I felt the first Note 8.0 also heat up a bit too much (still comfortable to hold) from the left side whereas this second runs nicely without heating up. Also what I noticed yesterday was the while charging the chargers was just warm when before with the first device it was actually getting hot.

The heat Issue?

I am thinking to buy the phone but I saw some posts there are some heat issues. So what is the problem besides the phone getting too hot? Is it shuting down when it gets too hot or get really laggy? Is there any other problem when heated except it gets really hot?

I haven't experienced any heat issues. I have yet to feel my g3 get warm Tbh.
Others (not sure which model) have reported issues with heat, to the point that it causes the device to throttle the brightness down. Again haven't experienced this on my at&t model.

Same here not felt it get warm even watching video.
When the phone gets hot several things happen.
1) The CPU is clocked down to help lower heat
2) Brightness is capped to help lower heat
3) If the phone continues to get too hot (usually when its already hot and you then start to play a really intense game, or benchmark the phone may shut itself down.
People complained a lot with the Korean model but I haven't seen anyone with a US model complain. Maybe the type of person that waits is less likely to be a phone gamer? They may have actually tweaked it so it doesn't activate as quickly or harshly. I do know some people disabled it on the Korean model. I haven't heard of anything bad happening but those few people may have felt dumb if it destroyed their phone and not posted that it did...

I disabled the thermal protection on my AT&T version and yes, I've felt it get quite hot while playing Final Fantasy 6. The heat radiated mainly through the metal power button but the entire top half of the device got pretty hot. Didn't bother me all that much tho, as I've had other devices get hot like that in the past.
I use exposed app CPU temp my g3 sits at about 30c and 45c which is normal temps and about 50ish whith thermal protection on disabled.

My girlfriend picked this up yesterday and this is happening to her G3. Not playing games though, just browsing the internet/reading an article. It makes no sense to me. How can you take control over that? She doesn't want to root the phone.
But yeah, just reading something or even looking at Facebook, the phone gets way too hot.
I picked up the Verizon version yesterday. It's gotten pretty warm around the power button a few times for me also. Typically not bad or what I would consider unusual with one or two exceptions.
My G3 (UK) go very very hot yesterday when I was on the train playing a graphically intensive game.
It shut itself down and then refused to turn on again. Ever.
I tried everything all night but no joy. I got a replacement handset today.
I'm sure it was because of the overheating that the phone malfunctioned. Without knowing exactly what has happened to it the timing is too coincidental for it to be random hardware failure. It was SUPER hot!

This is strange. Does the kernel not shut the phone down before it "fries" the SOC?,unless the throttling temps are too high? Wonder if this is linked to the display flickering problem myself and another poster had.

Funny you mention display flickering. I had that about 2 weeks ago. The display started flickering really badly, like nothing I've ever seen on any Android device, and I needed to pull the battery to reset. It didn't boot straight away either, it had to cool down a bit.

Yeah, i had a flickering display which didnt go away.I returned that phone. Another poster yesterday had the same issue.Im wondering if the GPU is frying itself? Although the GPU does throttle as well as the CPU. Running Antutu I would get 60+deg C maybe playing a game for an extended period of time for example is causing damage? Just a theory.

Overheating, random reboots or shutdowns?
Yeah .
I picked up 4rd LG G3 32GB phone yesterday. All older have overheating defect (and I guess this one will made no different). Its big beast with a lot of power and there seems to be some bugs to deal with. Im sad too, I want to keep this phone and not change to another one.
Just quick test from rest of you: run Antutu benchmark like 3 times (you can restart it after 30% after CPU tests). Sometimes Im unable to make one single run of benchmark and phone shutdown itselfs. Great.
(oh, EUR edition, metal black, 1st wave)
Took my g3 on holiday with me, phone was in my pocket not used for a while. Took phone out pocket to get some holiday snaps, after taking 3 pictures with the stock camera phone over heated and shutdown. Great photo opportunity missed. Took phone back off and battery out so could cool quicker,and left to one side for 45 mins to an hour. Was an overcast day and not very warm. Put phone back together turned on, and fired up the camera. 4 pics later, warning phone over heating, will power off. What good is the camera if u can't use it, missed some good pic opportunitys. Not happy.

Overheating has been addressed in builds 10G and later - what firmware you running?
Also did you disable Thermal protection in the hidden menu (it is billed as a way to reduce lag by some numpties on xda) - doing this will cause your phone to get hotter quicker and stay hotter for longer thus increasing the chances that it will shutdown for overheating.

I'm running 10g non rooted, did do the thermal trick at the time, so maybe it was that, have since disabled as noticed battery drain was a lot higher. Haven't tested camera yet though.

Let me answer you through question... What does your pc do when it overheats?
Usually reboots or shutdown, right? It is same with phones.

I know that this can happen in laptops but In phones this is the first time to happen to me... especially the warning message
I just wanted to check if there is anyone else had the same message...
another thing is that there are times when my lg g3 is hotter that when the message came (especially when using the phone while charging) but the message didn't came... so I don't know how is this heat shutdown thing works.

i'm in 10G version and i'm rooted and having the thermal detection off.
ohh I remembered another thing... when the phone shutdowns I was not in the visible sun so it is not something related to sun exposure... it must be something with the software
Salahhuss, can you tell us what you did with the phone that you got that message? If nothing, get yourself betterbatterystats (search on xda) and check what makes you wakelocks...

I'm using the phone right now as this issue happened only one for me so i'll wait and see it happen again then i'll contact the supplier to check it.
In the meanwhile i'll try the program you mensioned and see the results.
Thanks for ur help ?
Seems to me that the heat sensor on the batteries often malfunctions and you get this issue. If you wrap some tape around it to keep the top plastic pushed down against the battery pack the issue might go away.

I think I am having this issue on a G3s, the phone used to work normally but lately I can't even run it long enough to get my photos off of it because within 1 or 2 minutes after turning it on it gives the temp warning and shuts down, the phone doesn't feel warm and I wasn't using any apps. I don't understand where to wrap the tape, where is the heat sensor located? I'm trying to push the battery against which side exactly?
Update:
Just having the info that it could be the heat sensor of the battery was helpful, I tried swapping the battery from another phone and the problem seems to have gone away at least for now. I was able to connect to a computer and copy over my files. Will be keeping my fingers crossed....
