id say when your phone gets to about 45c then you need to stop everything and let it cool off. i was wirless tethering once and my battery read 56c and "overheat". normal temp while using the phone is about 35-40c
I run to 50 celcius pretty consistently with no problems (yet... lol)
Your red LED will start flashing a rapidly at 48 degrees letting you know your battery is overheating.
If I am running wireless tether more than 15 minutes or watching a video or downloading something. I will take the battery cover off and place my phone in front of a fan. Or if I decide to use it on my laptop while I am at a jobsite I will put it in front of the air vent.

hey guys,
I got my car dock a couple days ago and started using it day 1.
impressions:
its sexy but a little hard to move around (prob cuz its new)
but i have a major problem with the nexus one heating up to almost 120 degrees Fahrenheit! and this troubles me cuz i dont want my battery to lose its charge capacity.
and if im on lets say 50% battery and i drive somewhere for 10-15 min using the navi on the car dock
the temp shoots up to 115-120 and the charge goes down to ~30%
anyone else having a problem with overheating while in the car dock?
i used it during the day and night (only to check if the sun was affecting it)
no change in results
i used it with every option on the power control widget off
i ran Advanced task manager and ended all apps before launching navigation
im considered a tech whiz
so ive put this thing through its paces
and they only way to not have my phone burn hotter than the atlanta summer sun is by turning the screen off and listening to the navi...not veiwing it while its on charge and keeping all wireless options and sync off except GPS
ideas greatly appreciated....
oh yeah
rooted n1
running cyan 5.0.6xx if its any consolation...
and its not undervolted...(problem? but then what about non rooted phones)
EDIT:
oh and today
after using the n1 and removing it from the car dock the screen was not responsive. couldnt use it to navigate
has to reboot the phone
I also noticed my Nexus heated up to 40-42 degrees C while using GPS with Screen on for 15 minutes. Burning hot.
no one has any problems?
ive been noticing its msotly because of the sun that it gets scorching hot but at night it does rise past 115 degrees F
120 degrees fahrenheit (49 degrees celsius) is not very hot for computer parts. The reason it reaches those temperatures I guess is because of google maps (if you used that for navi). When you use google maps it's almost constantly using your data connection and that is one of the most battery intensive tasks if I remember correctly.
Oh and I wouldn't classify a little over 40 degrees celsius as burning hot, I've been to places hotter than that, but I guess it's subjective
Seems that overheating is mainly an issue for those running Cyanogen's ROM, no?
My N1 can get hotter than 50 Celsius in under 10 minutes. It's really a bit frightening. I have noticed, however, that this ONLY occurs when the battery is not near full. Turning the screen off seems to help cool it down (more testing needed). However, turning off the screen doesn't help when you need it for gps.
I am using cyanogen, but not the cyanogen kernel. Overheating occurs both in sunlight and at night. I believe it occurred while not running google maps as well, but I can't remember for sure.
I've had no problems, but I did notice how hot it was. I figured it was because of the sun since I had it mounted on my window glass.

Google maps only uses a data connection when it initally pulls down the route information and when it needs to recalculate the route.
You can put your phone into airplane mode after the inital pull and google maps will still function as expected (Except it will not pull down new maps if you stray from the path).
The issue is that you are trying to charge the phone and use it at the same time. The mechanism for doing this charges the battery and depletes the battery at the same time, this makes a really hot battery.
Keeping the screen off when its not needed in the dock and you will have less heat issues when you need to charge your phone in the car dock.

yeah this car dock i am really getting mad at
i wasted 60 bucks for something that heats the hell out of my phone
i listen to music so loud the bluetooth speaker isnt loud enough to tell me where to turn when the screen is off so...
i guess ill try out enomthers rom with the UV kernal and report back
the major cause of it is the sun
because at night the phone doesnt go over 100 degrees F when using the navi

Does anyone having this problem use "set cpu"?
I had a the same problem because my cpu was set to 998 during charging. so then I had the three main things that cause heat ganging up. battery, gps and cpu. All i did was set the cpu to 806 while charging and the heat problem went away...
I imagine that the stockers don't have this problem because they are under-clocked...
The main problem is the sun. I have Rodriguez's rom with the overclock and the only thing causing it to heat up is the sun.
Setting the CPU lower I will try but on setcpu I don't set it to userspace anymore. Its set to ondemand and no profiles set. Ill set a profile for overheating at 120°F to max 806mhz

NEXUS ONE
So, I took my Nexus One for a spin using Google Turn-By-Turn navigation and it was like a 25 minute drive and when I got home, the phone was really hot, to the point where i was afraid this thing may be close to being fried on the inside. The touch screen wasn't working properly (not responding to touch and being very inaccurate than normal). I left it on the desk and after 5 minutes it cooled down again and was fine.
What the heck is wrong? is it cause I kept it on the dash board against the dials, that area was kind of warm but nothing to heat up the phone that much, should I be using a cradle or something?
Its a fully stock Nexus with 2.2.1 FRG83D, not rooted and no other apps running. Same thing happened with the free program MapDroyd, so it isn't Google Navigation only issue either.
I don't use GPS much, but when I first got it, I did and it was fine. After about 9 months though its started getting pretty warm, within minutes of using 3g, roughly 38degrees celcius (about 100 fahrenheit), but apparently it's been tested and works fine up to 57 celcius (134 fahrenheit) or something like that.
it's not the gps .. it's the turn by turn navi.. it uses massive amounts of CPU that is what heats up
It is a number of factors, including the previously stated turn by turn navi. You also have the screen on permanently, plus at least where i live, anything in a car not in an air conditioning stream is going to heat up a lot.
I suggest getting a setcpu widget or some other temperature monitoring widget. I also set my cpu to underclock when it gets above 48 degrees C.
Heavy CPU usage, GPS probably generates some amount of heat, but mainly it also adds to the battery draw which adds heat. Screen is on, and you're possibly also downloading quite a lot of data unless your maps are entirely offline.
Also, your phone might be sitting in the sunlight, or in the winter might have the vents blowing over it.
So just the GPS? Not really. Run GPSTest sitting on your desk. You'll see significant battery usage (probably adds 120mAh to what it'd normally use) but it won't get hot.
Yeah, turn by turn navigation does seem to heat it up a lot, even when caching the map offline entirely on a Wifi network beforehand. My phone isn't rooted, but maybe I'll root it and use setCPU thanks.
Will actually heat up more if plugged in. Although mine never gets past 115 or so and this is with GPS and music playing.

My Milestone seems to have given up it's ghost.
I was driving along, tracking my position in google maps, and it froze up. After removing/replacing the battery, it will no longer turn on. No M logo, nothing. It was rather hot to touch at the time it crashed (OC'ed to 1ghz, GPS on, charging, GoogleMaps SatelliteView) so I suspect it simply fried itself. Bummer.
In some thread somewhere, someone mentioned to leave the battery out for a while so that an internal capacitor can discharge but no luck.
Anybody else run into this?
It may sound stupid but. Have you tried connecting the charger while the phone is off?
EDIT: the milestone always get very hot when running navigation or maps no matter what you do

I realized that your Milestone is overclocked to 1ghz. What ROM are you using?
It was running HO!NO! CM7.2.0-RC0 at the time, but since any CM-based rom will let you overclock I dont blame the rom.
I'm giving it 24 hours of no battery before trying again, pretty sure the battery had around 70% charge at the time it died.

It always get hot especially when it is charging. Good luck...
1ghz its not too much? XD im OC 800mhz max
Yay! It's back! Left it with no battery for 3 days and it powered right up after putting the battery in. Phew!
Bummer though, was looking forward to getting a captivate glide. oh well.
In the middle of September, I've added an option (in CM7 for Milestone) to automatically limit the max CPU frequency when the phone is in Car Dock.
It's there for a reason .
From the changelog (it's there since 7.1.0-RC15-11.09.14):
- added options to limit max CPU frequency when screen is off and when phone is in car dock
(When the phone is in car dock it can easily overheat as there is usually: heavy navigation app running, gps in use, battery charging, 3g in use, sun shining directly at phone behind front car window. All this together can lead to battery temperature rising above 50C at which point the charging is automatically stopped to prevent battery damage and you can end up with phone battery empty after some time despite phone being connected to charger. So the CPU freq limit for car dock is there to help with this temperature issue.)

Yes I use it, except in this case it wasn't in the dock, it was on my lap as I was the passenger.
Although I'm curious. I've disabled the dock observer (car mode just annoys me at the moment). I'm assuming a disabled dock observer means it doesnt reduce frequency when docked, right?
What ROM would be ideal to use with it ?
Hi guys,
What is the average temperature you are facing for moto x 2014 model.
My device is operating in the range of 35-40 degrees (Celcius). Is that normal ? I thought it to be around 30 degrees.
I do have lots of apps. And have the sync and wIFI turned on. ANd i am a moderate user.
But this 35-40 degrees is without playing any games.
And i do not have a case too.
I booted in safe mode to check out the temperature and it showed 31.2 degrees when it is in absolute stand still with wifi connected.
With respect to environment conditions, the room where i check the temperature does not have an air conditioner
Hope all this info is enough for you guys to help me if i need to go for a replacement!

I don't think it is a problem. I had a worse phone before (Nexus 4 is horrible with heat). There may be some background processes going on that you are not aware about, so that needs to be taken into consideration. also, you said you have no A/C, so external factors is a key thing to look at. If it starts burning you, then it could be defective
Hey guys, just out of curiosity, how hot does your phone battery normally get while charging?
I noticed that on average the temperature increases to around 90-92 degrees fahrenheit. However, sometimes the temperature remains at 87;
It gets noticeably hotter while I am using the phone and charging at the same time, however, I guess that is to be expected.
While not charging, the temperature stays at an average of 83 degrees fanrenheit. I am not sure if such an increase in temperature is normal.

Normal. Charging and usage together will create lots of heat.

Ah I see, that is reassuring, hopefully I hear the same from others too
Surprisingly, mine is about the same. I'm charging my phone wirelessly, and the hottest it got was 88.7.

I had switched my phone off and kept it in box waiting for the screen guard to arrive .
During my way to office , i dont know somehow it got booted .
It reached 134 degree fahrenheit (57 degree celcius) , when i opened it in my office after 15 minutes of commute .
Switched it off for sometime and back on , back to normal temps .
Can this kind of temp damage anything for a short while ?
Help much appreciated .

Doesn't sound normal to me. Try a factory reset to see if it resolves the issue. It it continues to do this then you probably want to take it back to the store.

I havn't experienced anything again and currently its running at 27 to 35 degree celcius .
If somehow it got booted during commute , since the box was closed and all , no heat could escape properly . Is is safe to assume that because of the closed box the temp reached higher ? (I had also covered the phone in the plastic it came with) .
So i guess the phone reached its temp limit and kept restarting inside the box .
I want to know if such temps for short duration could have damaged anything , as the phone is working fine otherwise . (Today i'll turn it off and keep in my pocket and commute and see) .
Help much appreciated .

A battery temp of 27 to 35 degree celcius is normal. If you want to protect your phone, get a case and remove that plastic wrapping that the phone came with.

LOL , the plastic wrapping inside the box was just for commute , i was waiting for my spigen on that very day .
But this mystery will never be solved , why did it boot in the first place in the same box the manufacturer gives us (it has to commute on seas and land) .
if it boot cause of commute , why did it reached such a temp in such a box .
Anyways , thanks .
