Overheating

Hi all, i have stock v10b ROM with no ROOT or custom kernel. My mobile is not restarting and its not heating while charging, its heating just when i play for e.g. Dungeon Defenders for 5 minutes. Is it normal ? My phone never restarted yet but i have it jst for 4 days...

No worry, its absolutely fine. Your are not alone. Jonny walker, keep walking.
Even thought the battery caution shows: Do not exceed 40Degree Celsius. Just that you will smell the smell of 'burned' lithium when you open your battery cover.
Wahaha
After my exam, I'm going back to LG with the smell and get a new set perhaps? Hehehe

if you are not joking here i think your battery is faulty

Update to 2.3 can fix it what do you think ?

It depends on what you are talking about.
It is perfectly normal, that electronic compnents produce heat when operating. More work produces more heat. So if you play some graphically intensive games you should expect, that the phone will produce some heat.

Its ok it will heat, but after 5 minutes it is bad, i had overclocked SE X10i played this game for 3 hours and it was cold as ice... :/
That heat come from Camera or near camera my battery always got about 29-36°C

OK, my question is, if i flash undervolt kernel, can it help ? And then , i need to know how to flash back to stock, Is LG updater enough ? Or i need to flash it any special way ? If yes please give me link ^_^

lol 29-36 deg is normal.
my galaxy tab also heats up while charging.
it is normal for phones to heat up when your doing something like browsing and gaming.
and i used to have x10i also. that one has a serious overheating problem. i can't charge it during the day cause it heats up too much, the phone freezes while charging.
i reduced the overheating by using a charger that has less Output voltage;
the one that come with the box has 7+ Voltage output, i am now using a charger that has an output of 5.1V ( i got the 5.1v charger from my optimus one)
i don't know if this can damage your battery but you can also charge on your pc using the usb cable. it charge your phone slow but does not overheat it.

I mean while gaming its about 50°C , and can undrvolt kernel solve my problem ? Mby for a little bit..?

I don't think so it help. Under voltage affect the performance(I assume) too. The heat is not because the 'nvdia' it flaunting its power. Its because of the battery...
All i can hope is the 2.3 update... If nothing changes, i'm gonna sell this on ebay for 100usd... starting bid 1$ ==

But that super heat come from area around Camera, there somewhere suppose to be a processor i think... I think im gonna try this kernel, just need to know how to get it back to stock, so i can use warrancy when needed...

50deg? Im surprised it did not melt your phone. Lol! I have been playing lots of gameloft and tegra exclusive games but mine never overheat beyond 38deg. Use your warranty.

my friends 2x got to around 39 degrees when we were just surfing the net in 3g, thought its about 28 degrees outside as well... you think its normal ?
hes gonna play an HD movie and see if the temp is not too bad later on

LOL anything below 45 degress is fine.
46 above can shorten your battery life.
50 above can damage your battery and your system after prolonged use.
and its perfectly normal for phones to heat up while using 3G.
all my previous phones heat up while on 3G browsing.

Ill try to use my warrancy when ill have time, than ill share my experience , bcuz i bought it from Samsung CZ....

I have tried custom kernel, its still the same but my phone is now laggy at all, when i turn on screedn it takes about 5 seconds, and starting apps is really bad too, please help me how to revert it back to stock...

Over night I left my phone on the loading cable... when I woke up this morning I noticed that my phone was extreeeme hot and had a black screen of death..when I booted up I saw that the clock settings were set up to 1,4ghz although I set it to 1ghz the evening before...I just uninstalled pimp my cpu now and have no overheating issues till now. I was really scared and thought that my phone just melted inside ..

if i were you (or any1 else to be honest) i would not even try to overclock this phone for 2 simple reasons:
1) as aremcee has said, the hack used to overclock the tegra 2 is just really dirty, he doesnt approove it, and as he is one hell of a smart guy, i have to agree with him.
2) why the hell would you need to overclock it if its already lightning fast. only for benchmark whores imo. i mean this is no optimus one which has a 600 mhz cpu. that one you would like to OC, to see some improovements lol, but not this thing.

I agree, my phone is still fast and i underclocked it on 900MHz but, starting apps , and starting screens takes about 5 seconds, and its pretty much so i all time think about its Dead or Its going to restart, ill try custom rom with underclock. BUT noone said me HOW THE HELL I CAN REVERT BACK TO STOCK KERNEL ? I ask this about 4th time...

[Q] How hot do your notes run?

On a scale of 1 to 5. How hot does your phone run?
Normal -1
Watching movie on mxplayer - 2
Browsing on dolphin hd - 3 to 4
Browsing and charging at the same time - a good 5

I managed to get mine above 5o degrees celsius yesterday. There is an app called "Stability Test" on the market in case you too would like to get yours warm for these gloomy winter evenings

Im on 2.3.6 KK9 and it runs significantly cooler than my old SGS2. The only time its even warm is when charging and playing a game.

Same here. Charging and doing stuff makes it hot. Really scary. My hd2 isn't this hot.

Heater
I was using my Note yesterday at work with no problems. Today while I was at work I could feel the heat on my leg from the phone in my pocket! I freaked out and I find out that it heats up and powers off. I have to hold power to get it running again. Checking the temperature in "spare parts" battery info it was upper 30 degrees celsius. Sitting beside me now it's 29. Super scary. I don't want to have to return my phone. I have the abyssnote kernel with Romow rom.

I was gaming yesterday and SGN reached 56*C...
Abyss 1.4 kernel and 1.7GHz @ 1.4v

I would like to know too. Actually, I guess the upper limit of the processor would be good to know too, but too bad we can't directly access those temps since I guess there isn't a CPU temp sensor. I tried looking around through Samsung's site & CPU spec sheets and can't find anything of use about operating temperatures. While gaming and not charging mine can get up to 46c and the phone becomes quite warm/hot to the touch.
I've got FM 2.0 Kernel on Cassies Lite ROM. I have it overclocked to 1.6Ghz and undervolted each step by roughly 25mV (couldn't do much more than that.)
I'm a bit worried and actually a bit disappointed that it seems I have to limit my usage of the phone incase it goes into meltdown. I have profiles set to reduce the max clock when the battery reaches certain temps, but I'm afraid that might not be enough.

Mine can get very uncomfortably hot if charged and have GPS app running for an hour. Usually in that case, I underclock it to 500mhz, which is fast enough to run the app and play music in the background smoothly
It gets quite hot with 3D gaming over long session too, but bearable to hold in a case, but you can feel the heat on the screen, usually underclock to it 800mhz to 1ghz in this case.

Nexus 4 throttle

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=koLJ4BU9tgc
Swedroids test
It throttles at 36 C and shuts down at 59 to 60 C.
They should increase the throttle to 45 C and when 45 C is reached make the throttle more aggressive would be a better solution.
What do you guys think?

If it gets to hot people get the yellowing... I would rather run cooler and not worry about it.
Is this throttling effecting real world usage or just benchmarks? Not being sarcastic, asking a question.

Well i dont know, i dont care about benchmarks, just thought about informing what i found.
And increasing the throttle level and making it more aggressive later on was just my opinion.

I would like to see a comparison with the iPhone 5 and Galaxy S III on what temperatures they shut down.

I think that the video was pretty painful to watch! lol WHO on earth would run a phone to death like that?? Hope they have an extended warranty... For real though, I would like to see them bump up the throttling temp a lil but in the real world most users will NEVER experience something like that because that app is meant to run your phone into the ground! I hate that they even make benchmarking apps cause it makes me competitive but I have found that the N4 is FAST as hell so I don't need anything else to prove that to me... Good vid though for the info but lets all step back into reality...

I'm thinking the S4Pro is rated to a higher temperature, and the thermal shutdown is really more for battery health than processor health... Regardless, 11 minutes at 100% load with no real cooling system...

Does the Galaxy S3 also shut down at the same temperature?

12 minutes with the CPU pegged at 100% on all cores with no cooling is impressive, IMHO. Yes it clocked down to 1150MHz but that's plenty fine.
No real world task will come close to pushing the processor that far. I doubt even gaming will task the cores so much that the phone throttles them back.
A lot of modern laptops won't run 12 minutes of solid prime95 before clocking down. This c2d 2.8GHz laptop I'm typing on now will clock down to 800MHz after 15-20 minutes of prime95...but it doesn't throttle at all when doing real world stuff, even compiling or encoding etc.

In my opinion the throttle should engage at 43-45c because at 36c its idle temperatures when the phone i just on stand by.

Ok I fear that's a real problem. What if I want to play a graphic intensive game for a few hours? Expecially on a hot summer day?

So much for Qualcomm's butter test

In the video description you can find:
"The reason as to why we published this video is because we've never experienced temperatures reaching ~60 degrees C before, nor have we ever experienced a phone shutting itself down after just 12 minutes of continuous full load, nor have we ever experienced such aggressive thermal throttling. It pretty much throttles down instantaneously from 1.5GHz to 1.2 or 1.1GHz during heavy load.
All temperature readings are presented in Celcius.
The Nexus 4 seems to have some issues with heat development. At least if we are to believe our findings. There might of course be a possibility that our unit is faulty. We are however not alone according to the Google Android issue tracker: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.into.stability&feature=.... A google search on the matter will also render lots of user reports concerning heat issues.
In comparison the quad core Galaxy S3 (3G) battery sensor reports ~41 degrees after 13 minutes of full load with the screen set to 100% brightness. It does however lower the CPU frequency to 800MHz at times, but mostly run at 1.4GHz. Our IR meter reports about ~34 degrees if we go ahead and measure the hottest spot on the back of the phone (area around the camera lens)."
For me, this is a no-go. I wouldn't buy a phone that shuts down after a few minutes of processor stress testing. Can somebody tell if the same happens with his N4?

Thing is that if you search the web for this problem, you get a lot of hits about people have thermal issues. I hope it just is a defective unit but it seems it is not the case. The S4 pro seems to be generating to much heat and requires too much power. That's why it empty's the 2100 mha battery a bit faster compared to other devices.
Maybe the S4 pro is more suitable for tablets and not phones.

Very few applications will use 4 cores. Hell, most don't even use 2 cores by default. So the chances of you maxing out all 4 cores in routine usage isn't very likely. The extra cores typically benefit smartphones when one process is utilizing a core already, a different process just gets thrown over to a different core so it doesn't have to wait for CPU cycles. Most smartphone use is "burst-y" so this helps end-users out quite a bit.

99.9 % its not the S4 Pro`s fault, just the lame battery from LG. I mean WTF after 15 secs it clocks down !!!!

Yeah, thats weird. But I could live with it, expecially when the phone runs buttersmooth. But if the phone shuts down after a few minutes of processor intensive tasks that's a big problem. I know that barely any app is using 4 cores simultanously, but what happens if you stress-test only one core? Does the phone also shut down?

This doesnt seem that bad, you're stressing it pretty hard which wont ever be done in real word conditions, for example take intel burn test, most people find this stresses the chip to temperatures 15C+ over any possible real word tests/usage.
You say the SGS3 throttles to 800Mhz at some points well thats pretty poor is it not? Clock for clock the s4 pro is superior and so clocking in over 300Mhz faster when throttled its pretty good id say. If you're comparing the S4 vs the S4 pro (US SGS3) then its pretty hard to say the battery sucks when its got more power! Of course it will run hotter haha.
I think they could put back the throttling limits a bit though, I think it maybe a battery issue more than anything though so maybe its a fault... Please test it by stressing a high end game for an hour or so tracking the temps and clock speed, that would be a much better indication.
edit: Seen your reply before me, It wont shut down like that in the real world! If you stress test only one core I can assure you that it will run MUCH cooler, you are essentially testing 2x the amount in the s4 Pro than you are in the dual core varient, in these stress tests it works pretty much 110% each core, in the realworld there will be idle times and switching between cores handling different threads, lots of variences that should mean it would be ALOT cooler all the time even if using all 4.

1 core likely won't generate as much heat, and not to mention the whole point of the cores is to distribute load and operate at max efficiency rather than less cores at max.
I understand that some people have issue with the throttling, but until people report that they can't play x and y after z minutes it is a non issue. It may have to do with the glass, maybe LG battery. It is possible the throttle is there to preserve the higher recharge cycles LG Chem batteries have.
Unless it actually ruins an app experience, on stock rom and kernel, it is not an issue. If someone would rather pay 400 more to boost their bench by 5% that's up to them.

Mhmm, I guess it won't be a problem in real world usage. Nevertheless it's quite weird that the phone heats up that much AND THEN SHUTS DOWN, expecially in comparison to other phones like the SGS3, where this problem doesn't occur.
But yes, I didn't hear any complaints about critical-heat-shutdowns in real world usage, so maybe I'm just overreacting. But at the moment it's winter in USA and Europe, so let's see how the phone performs in summer heat
My old HTC Desire often overheats and shuts down on hot summer days when I'm using GPS or playing games, so I just hope my next phone won't have this problem

[Q] HTC One heat issue ?

is anyone that already owned HTC ONE have experiencing any heat issue ?
My concern before I replace my current phone (HTC ONE X+) to HTC One is the heat issue, since my phone that running on NVIDIA Tegra3 is extremely easy to get hot. I'm not sure whether my phone have hardware issue that makes it easy to get hot, or its because the processor itself that easy to get hot when running application especially the one that need 3D graphic.
There is a game on google play store named "Beach Buggy Blitz", and I saw on the welcome screen got writed "Powered By NVIDIA Tegra". I played that game for only approximately 10 minutes and my phone already heated up so much and I cant live with it . so I wonder about HTC One will have the same issue or not ?

i think snapdragon is 28 nm compare to tegra should be cooler

I have same problem with my one x+...
Can't play any game more than 15 min.... It will get hot and start malfunction ....
Also drain battery fast after they got hot...

Like the above post HTC One's processor is 28nm(28 nanometers) so it's very2x small compared to tegra so it should produce less heat.

Obviously, the aluminium is used as a heatsink. It'll get warm. The heat will dissipate. Not many dead.

Does the battery drop faster when hot. I swear mine does but need more time to be totally certain.

The only time I have a heat issue with mine is if it's on charge and I've been using it for ages at the same time. I'm lucky though because I invent faced any other heating situations in the slightest and especially not when I'm playing games (which I do quite a lot).

When playing games and charging it does heat up plus its aluminium so there will be heat felt. Otherwise it stays cool.

No. But a likely reason for the heat is use of battery... i.e., when the device uses energy, it is converting stored charge in the battery into heat and light.

Yes it happened to me today. I have been using the phone for the past 3 days, it got quite hot when using the camera, playing temple run and when it's hot, the battery dropped like crazy (from 30% to 11% in no time). Did I get a defective piece?

Heat

Some phones are great to take camping because if you play Asphalt 8 long enough, the back warms up to the ideal temperature that can bake bread. Rate this thread to express the extent to which the LG V20 stays cool under extended heavy use. A higher rating indicates that even when playing strenuous games for long periods of time, the phone doesn't get uncomfortably warm.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

What heat? The battery gets a little warm while charging. Once charged it reverts to room temperature.

i did a test. now the file got corrupted (because i used both, horizontal and vertical mode) so,, if i get to fix it i will upload it IT last about 3 hours playing 1440P videos, but the battery warmed upto about 41-42C. If the corrupted file doesnt fix, then im going to do a 1080p video and see how long it last.

Warm, similar to S7 Edge
I know Samsung is getting heat right now, but the LG did get warm when doing the initial download and setup. Not hot, just warm. During charging using AIDA64 I saw temperatures around 50c at times, and the battery temperature was up to 36c. This is similar to the temps on my S7 edge. I was not doing a fast charge, just using a regular wall charger with the included cable.

This phone is perfectly fine, and does NOT heat up any more than the average smartphone does. No need to worry about anything here...

I haven't noticed any heating at all, Even when setting up.

Mine got a little hot when gaming for a while but that's any cell phone.

Mine didn't hear heat up using lg backup surprisingly. Mine barely has any noticeable le temperature increase during charging. Haven't tested a heavy duty game yet. Done some heavy file transfers over wifi and screen mirroring. No heat.

Just got my v20 a week ago and this thing runs cold all the time. Im coming from a HTC 10 and it's quite nice. My HTC 10 would get hot enough while charging it or playing a intensive game it needed to be stuck in a case or it would almost burn me.

My V20 was running hot, over 102°f
I had 32% battery life when I pulled the battery and waited 2 mins before I turned phone back on. When I turned phone back on, I was at 18% battery life and it's still declining as I'm writing this. WTF???

Same here, had it since it first came out and never had any heat issues with it. I swear these manufactures release updates and cause our phones to start acting up wherever they release a new device. It started happening after the G6 was announced and I received an OTA update for bug fixes! Bug fixes my ass, they just want us to buy a new phone!

Actually I had this problem a week ago. I had an LG V10 before that did the same thing then a few days later fried. I had to return it for warranty repair then sold it. Fast forward to an LG V20, love it had it for a few months then suddenly it was draining battery fast and getting hotter then normal. I downloaded a few battery apps to help me trace the culprit but to no avail. Finally one day I just powered it off for about 2 hours and it has been back to normal since then.
Very strange and got me a bit worried about another chipset frying or another bootloop... lets hope not.:good:

Actually I had this problem a week ago. I had an LG V10 before that did the same thing then a few days later fried. I had to return it for warranty repair then sold it. Fast forward to an LG V20, love it had it for a few months then suddenly it was draining battery fast and getting hotter then normal.

Thanks, I'll try your method and hopefully it'll work for me as well. I had the same thing happen with my V10, and I loved that freaking phone, was built like a sexy tank. LoL
I hope my V20 doesn't start down same road of infinite bootloop, from which there's no return.?

Not much heat
I've had a v20 H990N for a little over a week, coming from a G3 (3 years without any issues until it died, i prefer to keep phones as long as they work). I have played asphalt extreme for at least an hour straight a few times on wi-fi, with the screen between 60-70% brightness and have not experienced anything except minor warming.

Need to follow your update cycle, getting phones and keeping it until they stop working. I have so many phones that I've collected, I used to switch out just for sake of changing phone shape etc.
I'm on v20 and intend to use it until it dies.

I does heat much more than expexted
