Battery temp

I've noticed that occasionally, my phone feels pretty hot in my hand. Used the spare parts app and got aa temp reading of 41°c. So I'm just curious if this is a high level of or not for a not charging phone (the lowest temp I have seen is 29°). Just post ur temps here or provide any useful info you may have so I can get a feeling for if this KS normal.
Thanks!

I experienced the same, but be noted that, continuous use will heat up your fone, especially when dealing with SD card reading/ writing. btw you can always check with the shop for sure.
It gets hot when I use navigation for a while. It got up to 50C today. Damn that's hot!
Anything that uses continuous data transfer over 3g/h like maps wud heat up the phone. Same applies for calls too on 3g/h.
I always keep mine on 2g unless I need some serious data download. This way my phone keeps its cool

[Q] boot menu?

I found this at rootzwiki called "Found a bunch in Fastboot menu's, SBF flash mode, recovery and more...." im not a dev so I was wondering what these options do. I went down to hp tool and selected it to see what tools come up and it just rebooted my phone. I guessing I need it hooked up to a computer to use this. Since I don't know what im doing I stopped but I phone seemed faster. Not sure if its just cause of a reboot but I couldn't get over 1000kbps download and 500kbps upload. After I did the hp tools and it booted up I was getting over 2000kbps DL and 800kbps UL. Can anyone shed some light on the subject for me. "Remember im not a dev" just someone that's wants to improve his phone.
Ok, I switch to wifi to see what I get and speediest went through the roof. Switched back and now I can barely get over 100kbps DL

So your saying doing this is speding up download speeds?
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA Premium App
I don't know what I did but was getting 2000kbps last night trying to play around to see what it did. But know im doing the same thing and can't get to much above 200kbps. Its stop giving me 2000kbps when I switch to wifi then back. Just trying to figure out what I did.

Nice that would be nice of something did influence download speed. But could also be that late at night when the network is not as crammed you do tend to get higher speeds

True but how to hold the speeds at that rate without going down to low kbps like the op is getting now. Have you tried it?

What problems? They say that about every Android device.
Mine is working just fine, sans the occasional glitch, which I also had on my Atrix, and the wife's Inspire, and my captivate, and the GS2 I tried... See a pattern?
Oh, and even my iPhones had problems.
No problems here.
They said that some of the thrill's battery's cause power failures like mine and have freezing problems another problem I have I had to warranty mine out

Well after getting a new battery it does seem to work better and it is nice not having to charge 2-3 times a day.

Lately my battery has been dying pretty fast. I think it's either going bad or SPB Launcher is draining it.
Got my new battery my phone already works better

I'm very lucky that I haven't had too much trouble with my thrill. Battery life sucks, but that's because of the software...

i can imagine a graphics intensive launcher like spb will drain your battery pretty quickly.

Overheating

Okay, my phone easily overheats if I am charging and using facebook or browser with 3G same time. Also overheats when I am playing Pocket Legends when not charging. If I am charging my phone and Playing Pocket legends, it becomes really hot and just frozes and then reboot after i just unplug charger and leave it alone. This happens in less than 40 minutes. I have a battery app that shows battery temperature and sometimes it goes up to 78 degrees (celsius).
I use cm10 on my phone and never run over 3 apps same time because it causes overheat.
Is this normal for older phones? I have been thinking if I buy that Nexus 4 phone but that is soo expensive in Finland. I haven't overclocked or anything. Can you tell me how to fix this or do i need new phone?
Thanks

Shutting down constantly

Hi everyone,
I'm having a Galaxy ExhibitG and it starts to shut down constantly everytime I open too many apps or run something too heavy. And it won't let me power on the phone and even if I can the bettery status went crazy (from 90% to 0% then 20%)
One solution to this is to plug my phone in the charger constantly, but I need to take it to work and school.
The problem actually started to happen after I flashed Linaro CM 10.1 romm by smartguy(for got the number)
Any idea why?
Thank you.
Sounds like you might have a bad battery

I an positive its your battery myself and plenty of others have had this exact problem. Amazon and eBay are your friend if you don't want to spend $40+
