Hi,
Sometimes my Kaiser is getting very hot on the backside of the phone. Specially when WIFI and BT is on or even more when GPS is running.
Anybody else having this problem?
mine got pretty warm while i was installing apps and charging it (PC-USB) for the first time; look on the bright side, a battery explosion or a dead Kaiser can only mean a replacement or a lawsuit.
Yes you are using lots of juice when running Wifi and other processor intence apps this is normal if it gets so hot that you can not touch it then I would be worried but until then just use it for a pocket warmer in the winter
Mine gets quite warm when it's charging in the car, but not so much that it becomes a problem. I haven't the issue with BT or GPS though.
It's just like the Honda service manager says:
"They all do that."
When I first opened all the possible connections on my 8525 (WiFi, BT, 3G and phone) it got darn hot.
I think you'll find my posting of the same question over in the Hermes section.
They all do it. No worries.
As Austinsync says, it's pretty normal. Mine is a bit variable - sometimes wifi does not heat it up much and other days it is very warm. (probably to do with how close you are to the router - if the signal is weaker it struggles and heats up more)

my hermes does the same thing. not too fun when talking on the phone and charging at the same time...
They will blow up at 115 degrees F...

Now I know how to stop those folk that just talk and talk and talk....
Tell them my phone has reached 114 degrees and is about to blow my head off.
Of course that may be an incentive for them to keep talking

Woah, I thought I was the only one with this problem and was just about to post about it.
*plans casemod for phone, with either 120mm fan or liquid cooling* hahahahaha
Now you know why the battery has a dirty great heatsink on it...

Hi,
I'm using the diamond for a month now, and when i'm on a call for lets say an hour or less, it becomes really hot - i feel like i ll be able to cook eggs...
anybody experienced that?
LOL Yes

Yep, gets hot but not that bad.
your rom and radio effect the temperature somehow. i remember early radios it got realy hot then 1.00.25.05 came out and it was solved.

then i might consider installing a new radio version..cause it gets really hot....
when i ll be able to synch my diamond =!!!
in mine diamond temperature depends of using wi-fi
if i'm using wireless lan and the "power save mode" is turned to best batterry mode there is no such a hot....but on "best performance mode" temperature of the phone is much higher...
so i think that everything depends of wi-fi

I'm using 1.00.25.05 and I can say that if you talk over like an hour... it'll definitely be hot... heck even 15 mins get pretty warm...
yep, mine too...
I got the diamond less than a month ago, I also felt that it gets hot, especially when you're working him hard but I upgraded the ROM a week ago, and I think that it's better now...

Yes, once you have found the right radio/rom combo, heat like that shouldn't happen in general use. Mine used to over heat with SwiftBl 7.5 ....don't remember the radio I had back then.....after the switch to 2.03 roms and for me, the use of 1.08.25.20, it has been running much cooler.
Come on it's 600 mhz there running *notso optimal* inside that tight case
Ever navigated 2 hours? Almost starts to shine then.
Chips can be around 85 degrees before malfunction, so let it be. You manage 50 degrees with diamond, that's safe but feels very, very hot.

mine gets hot when i recharge it
My phone gets hot when in use or charging.
Doesnt bother me as its a small phone and as already stated the heat is a side effect of the componets working hard!
on a sunny day ,in the car, plugged into the car charger and running tomtom gps, homescreen plus shows 53°c after 10mins.
Well I guess it may not be any danger for the device itself but I'm pretty sure it's not very good for the battery since heat can overexcite the chemicals in the battery & shorten its overall lifespan.
off: give your phone a girl to chill him up )
on: yeah mine too when i use gps, internet and charge the battery
Mine gets hot when I turn Wifi on.
Hi,
when im using GPS-Navigation my Milestone always becomes very hot after a while of usage.
It does not seem to be App-dependent since it became hot when using Navigon as well as when using Sygic.
Mobile data is disabled, screen at auto-brightness and CPU at 800Mhz max.
Does this occure to someone else?
Is this normal or can it brick my phone?
I dont want anything to melt inside my phone (j/k its not that hot actually..)
yup ...
i put it in front of the car vent system so ac can coll it down
but this is common, i have a friend with a htc desire that has the same problem and same solution.
Alright thank you. So im not alone..
But could it become so hot that it damages some HW-Parts?
Mine also becomes fairly hot when using GPS and data connection - even on stock rom without any overclocking - so this seems to be "hot by design"
But I guess the heat could cause a 'bubbly' keyboard to fall apart.

i think so .. that's way i use that method to cool it down.
I've used the milestone gps to log my sailing activities in the sun and ambient temperatures of +30degC. Never had any problems to say the least except for the hot rear. IMO its normal for the milestone to run a bit hot coz i've also noticed similar issues when using only wifi. So don't think there is much you can do. Just thank motorola for building a tough piece of kit.
Hi guys I noticed something and I was wondering if anyone of you has the same problem.
I am using google navigation or waze and when I use them after about 20 minutes of navigation the phone temperatures are way too high.
Today after 25 minutes of navigation the temperature was over 56 grades celsius (idk if is spelled like that) and the back of the phone was really really hot.
Considering that usually the temperature is about 23-30 celsius grades I think that over 50 is quite high.
Anyone has this problem? Is it a problem or is normal?
Using tamasek kang's, one of the latest versions
have the same on CM7...and another issue with GPS when 3G is on...GPS status sometimes can't take signal. When i turn 2G, GPS working properly, when turning 3G back, issue doesn't exist for a while. Tested on BB 0725+0725ril and 1303+0725 v10d on CM7 kang 89, CM9 nova...
maybe try to turn only 2G signal, and test a temperature...i'm not testing yet...

Are you using the GPS feature under the sun? In the windshield of your car maybe?
I personally have my phone reaching 41C easy. (I use offline navigation btw, meaning no internet connection on. Just GPS.) And actually, heat is normal, I used a Motorola Milestone before, and same thing, it would get really hot under navigation.
What I do though, is I actually have one of the aircon vents pointed at my phone. Since I've started doing that, I now have a 28C phone navigating me.

well no at both questions.
The support I use in car for the phone has like a cover that protects all the back of the phone that should stay at the sun so the sun doesn't touch it.
Also no aircon vent is pointed at the phone.
I'm using the 3g connection always since I don't have any offline navigator.
Today I also underclocked it to 800mhz to see if it changes anything but nothing, same problem

My only advise then, is to look for a car dock that allows one of your aircon vents to hit the phone.
Sorry mate. I'm out of ideas too.

Just in case you're wondering, this is pretty much what I use as my car dock:

Its normal temperature, all of my previous phones where hot when using gps nav.

If you are using google maps, you can pre cache your maps at home using wifi so that you don't need 3g outside. Pre caching is fast, and covers quite an area. Hopefully by not using 3g while navigating will help reduce heat.
I don't have this problem.

I am using temasek rom too but i dun have this issue.
I drove up from Singapore to KL all the way with GPS on all the way. abt 4hrs journey, phone temp @ 35.
Perhaps my hp is placed close to the aircon vent
I am currently using a GNEX that is now almost 2 years old so i am due for a new phone. So far the Xperia Z is at the top of my list followed by the HTC One.
However there is one thing that bothers me about the Z. The overheating issues i have been hearing about.
To current Z owners. How bad is this issue and has Sony explained what is causing this and if they intend to fix it?
I don't think there is an overheating issue. The phone back gets a bit hot under certain conditions but never has it affected my use. I have a feeling it is due to the tight packaging of the phone and the use of glass which causes this, but I really isn't an issue. Don't let that scare you away from the phone.

Yes, it is not a problem at all. Trust me. Also, I integrated the 3-phase thermal protection into my custom kernel and it works like a charm, keeping it cool all the time.
It does get warm rather quick but it is really only a warmth, not "hot". My old milestone 2 used to be permanently warm and quite hot when using it (especially internet use on 3g). My S2 was usually pretty cool, but got close to painfully hot when playing intensive games like modern combat. So far, the xperia Z hasn't got as hot as either of these phones for me.
The phone does get hot but only when using chrome so I'm sure its not an issue just a bug. I know that phones can get a little hot and I accept that but when I first experienced the heat coming from the top of the phone it was enough to worry me. I am however confident that it will be resolved so I'm not worried.
I really never heard that issue before...
Buy this and amaze

To be exact there is no such thing in the XZ as overheating. At least I did not hear of "overheating". Some phones tend to get a bit warmer during intensive tasks, but not excessive.
BTW, the difference between a bit warm and overheating is that overheating is actually a thermal "shock" that would usually lead to a restart of your device, or a smoking device.
well mine gets hot when i use the screen a lot. System Tuner shows me that the cpu gets up to 49 degrees. I'm really thinking of buying Cooler Master 212 for the cpu I'm really concerned about the cpu life.

This phone will be worth about $10 by the time the CPU is affected!

Hi,
Just thought i would let you know. I had my Xperia Z three weeks. On sunday it was on charge and my phone rang. I took it off charge and answered the call.
The screen was extremely hot then it cracked in my ear. There are a few others that i know of on sony forums who reported this issue but Sony are refusing to replace my phone saying its not a "manufacturing issue".
Im left without a phone and starting legal action against them.

I also happen To have this issue, my phone gets got to the point it hurts my skin! I even use a case and the case gets really hot too
When i play S.surfers for about 45 minutes I see that the game doesn't run smoothly.Eventually the display also becomes warmer and that results that the display does not respond properly on my fingers.

with the latest firmware (.244) the phone runs even cooler than with the previous firmware (.423). Also, intensive games lag less.

Hi guys,
Im new here and fairly new to Android coming from the iPhone (I know....what was I thinking with apple?)..
I have the first HTC One for Verizon, I love this phone and generally don't have any problems with it. I have been testing out ROMs and have been pretty successful with them but the only problem I have is after steady use, maybe 15-20 minutes the phone gets hot. (not burning my hand hot..) But just out of concern for the phone, is this normal or is it damaging to the phone? I'd like to try to make this last the 2 year contract I just bought.
- Thanks in advance

should be OK, the cover acts as heat sink, that's why you can feel the heat more than other phones. afaik, the max HTC specification temperature is 55C.
when the phone goes beyond specification temperature (eg using navigation in the car in sunlight while charging) the LED will start blinking red, and charging will be disabled to prevent damage.
EDIT: you could install an app to monitor temperature; GSAM can monitor batter & temperature
and if you use a lot of apps that use high cpu, you can think about installing a custom kernel with more "aggressive" thermal options

Oh thats good to know. Thank you for the reply. Brand new phone, I probably get a little paranoid but better safe then sorry. I will look into a custom kernel if I start to see that flashing red from overheating. Thanks again..

I've never had any problems. When running CPU intensive apps, my battery goes up to 45C but not more.
The hottest I've noticed it was using navigation in the car (but didn't check temperature as I was driving), but I almost never use that anyway.

Htc Does fell hotter than any other android phone , yes! cause its metal it conducts heat !! , i personally think its good that it conducts heat as it cools down at a better pace than any other phone..
Htc one feels nice on the hands in the winter.

I've found in the ROM I am running an app called Trickster MOD which displays all the temps and clock speeds. Staying steady around 40-45c depending on what I am doing. More toward 45c when playing games. I guess as someone said before, because of the metal casing you can feel the heat coming from the device. Thank you for your feedback everyone.

LOL on the heating part :silly:
but sounds about right on the temperature, my phone also stays between 40 to 45C when using games or graphic/cpu intensive programs; i've had it since about march or april, and no adverse effects (so far?)
i almost never use navigation, but if you want to test temperature, try it, it REALLY heats up.

I use the Google Maps Navigation often cause I do alot of walking around NYC and I often get lost in my own city lol. Ive actually never noticed any feeling of heat higher then any other app. Then again I use it for short term walking, usually 20-30 minutes at most.
