Max operating temp - Sprint HTC One (M8)

Ran navigation for about an hour this afternoon and used 20% of battery plus temp got to 118 F. Almost too hot to hold. This is with no case mind you. My 4G LTE also got hot under same circumstances. What's the max operating temp for this phone?

HOT battery~!

OK...so MUCH THANKS to Mr. Carlisle for gettin me all squared away with rooting my Hero and upgrading to Froyo 2.2. All back ups complete, apps downloaded and only major bug thus far is the camera...SO....why is my battery running at 105 degrees on average? What should the normal range be? I turn it on @ 6 am after charging to 100% and wiping battery stats and ten hours later recharge it to 100% (Currently @ 50%) and all day the temp has been between 103 and 105. whycome? HELP!

Because on FRF91 on Cyanogen mod (which i assume you are using) is overclocked to 710 mhz, where the hero's processor runs at 528 normally. My suggestion is to download an app called overclock widget from the market, (Obviously, it's a widget and you'll have to add it to your homescreen) and set the minimum and maximum clock (processor) speed to 240mhz(min) and 518mhz [or 534, if you want to, but it won't make much difference] (max).
You can set the max (or minimum) clock speed to be more or less. Lower clock(processor) speed=More lag but better battery life, and potential to freeze your hero because the processor can't operate the system fast enough. Higher clock(processor) speed= Faster and less lag but less battery life and can damage your touch screen (It's happened to me). if you leave it at too high a clock speed for too long, and can also freeze your phone because your processor can't operate at that speed and crashes your phone.
It's up to you if you want to overclock or not, but you should keep it resonable, and if you have heavy phone usage, don't go much further than 613 mhz for your max. There is also another program called set cpu that is avalible for free for xda members, but is a paid app on the market. Using that, you can set your frequencies to the default hero processor, or of other phones. But overclocking over 710mhz could do some harm to your phone, so be careful.
If you say, "I wonder if this will damage my phone," then don't take the chance without asking around first.
If you have any more questions about overclock, pm me, and I can help you out.
That temperature range, ~40C is completely normal when charging and using at the same time (with me, anyway). I'm OC'ed to 710 and using undervolt, too. The highest I've ever seen mine go is 43C, or about 109F. I don't really know where the "danger zone" is, but if I had to guess it would be around 48C or higher.
Edit: I reread your post, and do you mean it's at 40C always, even when it's sitting doing nothing? If that's the case then follow Ryoma Echizen's advice and fine-tune your CPU speed.

Battery usage has never lasted a full day

So as the title says, my note has never lasted a full day on a full charge. Even with moderate use, it lasts maybe 15-16 hours. With heavy use, playing a game or 2 or using the browser, it lasts maybe 9 hours. From the first day I got it I've rooted it and have used only the romow rom.
Currently on the version 7.5 HD.
BB: LA4
Kernal: AbyssNote 3.3
Each time I flash a new rom I always do a battery calibration test and even wipe the battery stats on recovery.
I notice people get a full day's use from the battery and maybe even more. Is there something I am missing? My wi-fi is always off unless I am at home or when needed. I turn the data connection off too most of the times. When I look at the battery usage in settings (I do this often), the display shows the most usage, always more than 65%, and nothing else. The android system, android OS, cell standby and whatever else are always less than 10%. Is there something I can do to increase the time the battery lasts? I'd like to get a full day's worth, and even more
Use black backgrounds and dark apps? Amoleds don't use power to display black. Whites will suck your battery dry.

Recently i visited a samsung service centre. I asked the engineer as what kind of problems people have reported in the note other than screen issues and he said battery issues and people ve got their batteries replaced. Maybe u want to get urs checked.

I would also suggest get your battery checked. But more than likely, Samsung will say 15-16 hours of moderate use is normal.
I am currently using Rocket ROM v20 with Abyss 3.5b. I have had it without charge for 12 hours now and from 100% it is at 82% right now. So far today I have watch an ep of anime (22mins long), gaming for 1.5 hours, had 4 phone calls (total of 42 mins). I think only draining 18% after all of that is impressive.

That is impressive. If I watch a 40 min show only, my battery would go down from 100% to 65. And if I play a game for an hour (depends on the cpu/ram usage the game takes up to), then my battery is at 20%. And this has been since the beginning. The moderate use I am talking about is calls here and there, texting, playing a game for maybe 20 min. Like today I played Shadowgun for a total of an hour, where's my water for 20 min, and texted a bit, made 2 calls, and used dolphin browser for 10 min. It hasnt even been 12 hours and my battery is at 20%. Ahhh I think I just need to get a new battery.
I know roms/kernals/basebands all factor into battery usage as well, so are there any suggestions as to which one might be good with this? Aesthetically I love romow's rom. I love every layout of it. Rocket rom is a little too "in your face" kind of, atleast for me.
Im always set my brightness to 0% and im not using auto brightness. What if you change the kernel to FM 2.0 Kernel. i find it saves more batt than abyss kernel.

I actually like the "in your face" look, of course that is my preference. I heard that checkrom is good for battery but in all honesty, I have tried a couple of roms and there isn't a huge difference between them. The biggest difference with battery usage I have notice is when you start using a OCing app with profiles like SetCPU. Tweak the power usage with each speed step and create profiles for when the screen is off, on call and etc.

How hot does it get compared to room temp? 15C warmer? 20C warmer?
I'd really love to work with some people to come up with a step by step guide on how to track down and fix battery drain / over heat problems.
The best way to waste power is to make heat with radio chip and GPU. Second best is to make light with torch or screen.
I know with the change in battery technology, some old practice no longer applies but I still follow the old rule of thumb when I get a new equipment.
When I got my Note, the very first thing I did was charge the phone for 12 hours before actually using it. You might want to give that a shot, the reading on the battery may not always be correct.

may i know which governor are you using? try to update the AbyssNote kernel to latest v3.5c and try either the AbyssPlug, lulzactive or SmartassV2 governor then see if there's any difference
Running stock LA4 ROM here. Brightness usually on lowest. If you don't touch the phone, it can last on standby a week. See below how it only lost 3% after 17 hours. Of course as the screen was off all the time, the internal processes take most of the power consumed.
After more than 1 day I still have 50% battery. See how it drops fast when I'm using the phone to read and download web pages.
I have the self same issue - battery hardly lasts a day - I just about manage to get home 8 hours later on critical - to hook it up to mains to charge.
All I use it during the course of the day - is browsing forums via tapatalk, viewing the occasional email. No hectic media consumption and music playing.
I am trying a different route now - it was running on stock firmware - over the weekend I've taken the following steps.
Rooted my device , installed CheckRom Revo v5 , running speedmod kernel with modem LA4
Hoping to see how that improves things.

First of all, you should post a screen shot of your battery graph.
How bright is your screen? If it's at 100%, then you're going to chew through battery very fast.
Games that require very high cpu usage will kill the battery.
Some games I can play forever on - some games, like Plants vs zombies, or puzzle quest 2, kill the battery. I can probably get 3-4 hours worth on a battery, and that's with a very low screen brightness. That's the price to pay with a fast cpu.
Dolphin is quite the battery hog too. I try to avoid it - I browse for hours with opera mobile, especially with the green on black mod.

I use the ondemand governor usually with overclocked to 1600. The only profile I have set is the temperature over-heat (temperature above 104 F, 40.3 C) and i've set it to conservative with max cpu to 1200. What should I set the screen off and in call frequency to be? I have just updated to AbyssNote 3.5 and changed the governor to AbyssPlug. Lets see how it pans out tm
My voltage settings are:
1704 MHz - 1375
1664 MHz - 1350
1600 MHz - 1325
1400 MHz - 1300
1200 MHz - 1250
1000 - 1125
800 - 1000
500 - 900
200 - 850
100 - 850

Whats the best app for battery statistics? I will get the graph and post a screenshot tm. My brightness is usually 50 % set in the middle always. Today I put my brightness all the way down to 0, I literally did not use my phone, maybe turned it on couple times during the day for 2 min, sent 1 text, played a game for 5 min, and used a medical application for 10 min, just to check the battery. With that much minimal amount of phone usage, after about 9 hours my battery was at 79%. Is that normal?
Just wanted to say thanks for the help also
it should make a difference. for battery monitoring, I'm using Battery Monitor widget. you may give it a try.

Install better battery stats and check for kernel wakelocks. If there exists some that last longer than 10 mins then some app is involved in the battery leak

[Q] Which Governor/s to deal with heat

Hello,
A friend of mine is using the phone for facebook/whatsapp only and he really hates the heat from the phone
I guess those apps don't need the CPU to be at max freq so my question is:
Which Governor / Cpuquiet Governor to provide the least heat and an a reasonable performance for those apps?
Interactive or ondemand governor and lowering max frequency to 860 MHz should extend battery life and reduce heating while keeping the phone running smooth in those apps. For gaming turn back to original frequency.
Alternatively, min frequency to 860 MHz and powersave governor, but the first option is better, I think.
Thanks for your reply I set the max CPU to 910 but I don't know what to use out of the three governors:"abssplug , interactive , ondemand"
I set the max CPU to 910 but I don't know what to use from those three governors: "abyssplug, interactive, ondemand"
I don't know the first. Interactive and ondemand are working similarly - they reduce frequency when max isn't needed, to extend battery. I recommend you to use one of them.
Hi Community
I have installed last stable (3.1 from 3.07.2014) version of LiquidSmooth and Mourty's kernel 3.1.10. I would be extremely happy, because I have never seen this phone working so smooth and fast, however I have two major problems:
- can't change preferred network option, there is only 3G to choose, I actually need 2G. May that be operator's (O2 in UK) fault?
- second problem is even bigger. It takes 9 hours to discharge 100% battery to 0 when I'm not using the phone at all (0 calls, 0 texts, 0 wifi, no gps... just laying on the table with everything switched off). On the CM or stock ROM I had completely normal battery life.
My settings:
CPU speed: 51000 - 1150000
Governor abyssplug
Cpuquiet Governor balanced
Napięcie na procesorze zmniejszone o 50mV

Please I really need your help as at the moment phone disconnected from the charger becomes useless...
Ondemand- when in idle the phone is on the lowest frequency. When in use, it is at the max frequency.
Interactive- is a scaling governor that scales the CPU frequency based on the load. Its possible that this will allow the CPU to stay at lower frequency with screen on thereby saving a little battery.
Abyssplug- is a hotplugging governor that scales the CPU frequency AND number of cores active based on the load.
I suggest using abyssplug with the "balanced" CPU_Quiet governor (CPU_Quiet determines how many cores are active at any given time) to save battery.
To reduce heat, you can underclock your CPU to 1.3ghz and undervolt your CPU based on your CPU variant. Also I've noticed that replacing the crappy lg battery also reduced heat since the lg battery is covered in plastic and does not dissipate heat very well
Also what kernel are you on?

Thanks for answers mates. Right now battery draining when phone should be in deep sleep is 10% per hour. over 70% of that is used by kernel, however I have reinstalled kernel yesterday and it didn't help at all. The strange thing is that when the phone is switch to plane mode it doesn't drain energy at all, 1% per few hours. I would understand that if the draining would be described as searching for GSM singal, but it's not, that's another 28% of battery usage. So there is definitely something wrong with gsm signal.

hi
I have also that phone and i am not happy. Why is very hot. And also the battery is crap. Is logic for battery do not take long time, because the heat it means energy . Its caloric energy you lose. I want to try to lower the frecvency of cpu to 1000 . But ... Its like i have an MERCEDES car and the engine is not good( low power and higher consumption on 100 km). I am not recomand that phone. The chinesse phone for ex with mtk cpu is more good. It is a fix for this? I see here in the forum a guy who put siliconic vasseline on cpu. Maybe a cooler , like on the pc . Shame of you lg. My friend have the same phone and like mine have the same problem with heat and also the left corner of display is unglue i think because of heat. If you put the phone in light and look not straight , in upper corner its like on samsung s3 phones for ex , when the special gel between display and touch is damage. You have a problem like this with the display?

That's what I felt about it before I undervolted CPU by -135 mV and LP cores by -75 mV, underclocked to 1300 mhz.
The technology this chipset uses is the problem here.LG did a fine job with keeping phone cool in stock kernel, though stock performance is not compareable with custom ROM/kernels as customized ones have better performance.1300 mhz is fine though, unless you play heavy games such as real racing 3 with many bots around, you won't feel the difference between 1300 mhz and 1500 mhz.
re
I see what is the problem with my phone with temperature. First i want to tell you about someone on forum who open the phone and see how the producer (LG) make the cooling. On the motherboard in the cpu zone it is a metalic sponge who make the transfer of the temperature with the metalic plate inside the phone. It is the same plate you see on the back when you take the battery. So, in his case and mine the problem is this sponge dont make very good connections with the metallic plate. WHy? Because ( in my case) , the lcd in the top is not glue very good, the tape double adesive is open. I think in time because of heating , the tape is opened. What do you must to do? If you can not make , put someone who repair the phone .So, you must to put some termal paste like pc cpu , or put a small aluminium plate, between cpu and the big plate inside the phone. That it. Ony if you have problem with the temperature like me. For ex . yesterday , without termal paste my cputemp it was max 60 degrese. Now , after modification i have i game and cpu stress app max 39 degrese. I am very happy now, but i must to rezolve also the problem with the bettery drainage. Maibe i must to change the battery. If you want to speak and put answers you found me on facebook cgamberea , or [email protected]. Sorry for my english, i am from Romania.

Because ( in my case) , the lcd in the top is not glue very good, the tape double adesive is open. I think in time because of heating , the tape is opened. What do you must to do? If you can not make , put someone who repair the phone .So, you must to put some termal paste like pc cpu , or put a small aluminium plate, between cpu and the big plate inside the phone. That it. Ony if you have problem with the temperature like me. For ex . yesterday , without termal paste my cputemp it was max 60 degrese. Now , after modification i have i game and cpu stress app max 39 degrese. I am very happy now, but i must to rezolve also the problem with the bettery drainage. Maibe i must to change the battery. If you want to speak and put answers you found me on facebook cgamberea , or [email protected]. Sorry for my english, i am from Romania.

Could you upload a picture of where you applied the heatsink?
don't forget to hit thanks!

I dont want to open again. If you open the phone you will see. I try to find a picture on the net for you.

Take a look at my repair guide, I'm sure there's a picture in there somewhere.

[Q] Normal device temperature????

hi
What is the normal device temperature that you see.. I m not talking abt the battery temperature.. I am talking about the device temperature ...
I am checking the device temperature using the cpu temp app
The normal temperature that I noticed when I got up in the morning was 32c
It is with wifi ON and brightness set to auto and normal 2g
after some minor use the temp now is 40-45c
If I do a 4k recording for 2 minutes.. It becomes really hot and temp goes to 70c
If I play a game the temp goes to 55-60c
While running antutu benchmark it restartEd once... He temp was around 65 for some time
while charging the temp is around 50c?
The device screen really feels hot , even more then the leather back
So are these things normal?
Or is this some hardware problems
I have already checked the battery stats and don't see anything unusual hogging the battery
I have not installed any apps.. Just the ones for speedtest, antutu, cup temp etc
Awaiting replies
Anyone... Any replies... At least the average device temperature
So many views...but no replies...
Ran antuntu and it capped at about 62C. Chill and uninstall the temp apps and use your phone normally.
thanks for the reply.. also can you check the temp while shooting at 4K for couple of minutes?
There is no such normal device temp. The device temp depends on the battery temp. If its between 10-15° c above the battery temp. Then its pretty normal in running conditions ... If the battery temperature rises then automatically the device temp will rise ... In most of the devices its between 40-45°c .. The normal device temp. And 1 more thing the device temp also depends on the type of ui u r using

You just said there is no normal, but the normal is 40-45°. It also depends on the temperature of your surroundings. I love in southern California and have to mount my phone in front of my air conditioning because our summers were up to 44c this year. I once had my Nexus 5 shut off from heat when it wasn't in front of the air.
Anyways. You're fine buddy, processors throttle at a certain temp and also shut down automatically around 75-80C.

Overheating quickly

I can't be the only but has anybody noticed the phone overheating quickly with moderate gaming or even an antutu benchmark. This is without X mode. When I do the same with my K20 Pro, it doesn't overheat like the Rog Phone 2.
How are you defining overheating? The device throttling? Do you receive overheat warnings?
Just because a phone gets hot doesn't mean it's performing worse. If anything it could mean it has better heat dissipation due to better contact between cooling and cpu. I play dual screen 2 games at once for 3 hours straight and the cpu remained cool around 40C. I kept my cpu speed down because it was overkill anyway

Can feel the heat near the upper left of the back of the phone. Temps were in 40s.
40s is not overheating at all. ROG phone has higher surface temperature than some phones but it's because it's barely throttling even after 1 hour of gaming. No need to worry

Exactly, it's not overheating, it's doing its job. It's moving that heat away from the internal components and to the outside of the phone via the vapor chamber, external vent, and aluminum side body section near the vent. Throw a slim case on the phone if you don't like feeling it warm in your hands, or tweak the game mode profiles to underclock the CPU and GPU and/or lower the thermal limit during games that make it heat up too much in your hand.

Agreed. It makes perfect sense that the t6ip left is getting warm, that's where the vent is
Rog phone 2 tencent edition overheating and shutting down
My Phone overheats and shuts down when under heavy load, or while charging while im sleaping. it first happened while playing pubg mobile and streaming my game to youtube. I can feel it gets very hot and after a while it just switches off. i also tried the antutu stress test and when it reaches 5% it switches off, i opened the armory crate to check the temps while antutu was doing the stress test and saw that my cpu reaches 73°c and then again it switches off. this is with xmode off.

That's definitely abnormal. You should try to get a replacement or warranty repair.

any updates. i’m having the same issue.
Same here. When I play games like ML or any games my phone overheating fast then my screen will turn off ..and another issue when I charge my phone while overheat my phone will shutdown
does anyone knows how to fix this?:crying::
I'm having the same issue. Charging overnight - it gets really hot, and sometimes it'll randomly reset. Not gaming or running much in the background. It happened since the last update prior to the most recent
Keep in mind that Rog phone 2 has a SnapDragon 855+ and + means it's overclocked. While other normal phones out there runs on default speed settings. So that's probably why Rog phone 2 can get hot quickly due to it's overclocking.
Mine gets very hot along the edges. In fact it gets so hot along the edges that it burns my fingers. CPU temp doesn't ever go much above 45 but the sides become untouchable... Is this a feature designed to stop you playing and thus save the phone from melting in your hands? ??

I had this problem on Android 10, but the problem was reduced when downgrading back to Android 9.

Yep android is a dealbreaker. Extreme overheating cause of the software.
After long time and intensive research, I found the real problem which is cpu/gpu refusing to throttle while on load. Usually the system reduces the clock speed of the cpu to keep the temperature between acceptable working range (room temperature - max of 60°c)
If cpu doesn't throttle, the cpu temperature rises until it reaches the max (i.e 65°C which is critical temperature as per A10s updated thermal framework) and shuts down the device.
I found a workaround which involves reducing manually the clock speed as the temperature increases.
But it requires tasker app(paid) and root to work.
