Dude u can use Gsam Battery application to monitor the temp of ur device
PS. its available free in Google Play

The app "OS Monitor " has an option to turn on notification bar monitoring which shows CPU load and current battery temp.
Notification bar is accessible when using full screen apps too, so it's very good for you guys which wanna monitor temp etc in real time instead of exiting app and quickly check temp in another app.

Only brought my s3 yesterday , extensively tested it with 3g and video, while on 3g browsing for 2 hours it got warm not hot and while playing video for 1 hour temp remained the same...hope it remains the same in future ..fingers crossed

I would suggest that we also report our surrounding room temperature as well seeing as that would affect the resting temperature of the phone.
Anyway,
Normal - 30-40
Heavy - ~45
Charging while doing nothing - 40
Max - 50 (heavy use during charging)
Room temperature - 30
The temperatures are all lower than my old galaxy s' though so I'm not too concerned.

In cpu/gpu terms i wouldnt be too concerned about temps under 80degrees offcourse when it gets that hot you will not be able to hold your phone too long

Around 50/60 degrees when stressing the phone is considered as normal, above that It would be feeling hot but not damagefull for cpu/gpu or other components. I repaired phones in the past at 150degrees in the oven and everything still worked fine ^^

Oh Thn all our device looks normal.. everyone's s3 is below 50

Offcourse the environement counts, some people have 50 degrees other people on the northpole have 40 if you know what I mean btw the quad core cpus are running much colder then the dualcores. That reminds me at my s2 that was burning my hands off

Has anyone been undervolting?

Using Faux123's kernel, I've undervolted significantly. I went from the stock voltages and reduced all the voltages around the table by 150mv.
I can do GL Benchmark @ 1.35GHz and 487MHz (GPU) without the phone thermal throttling, which gets me better results than anandtech's freezer tests (39.6fps), mine being 42 fps on GL Benchmark Egypt HD On-Screen.
So, anyone else UV'ing?

damn, 150mV is a lot!
I'll def UV my nexus, but probably the same values as my s2: -25 or 50mV
No reboots ?

Nope , no reboots. I'm daring to try -175, or -182.5 ish :S

how has this impacted your battery life?

When i was using faux i got to about -150mv as well. Phone never really got warm as well and battery seems to be abit better. I didn't have it on for more then 1 or 2 days. But i was 100% sable. I ran GLbench as well in a loop for about 2 hours with no lockups or reboots. Makes me think that the reason the voltage is so high is because there is a very limited number of the chips that needed more voltage so they just pumped more voltage into all the chips.

Damn! So lowering the voltages that much made it not throttle at all ???! . what was your temp after bench

Btw can I ask what governor your using ? . and just to be clear . you under clock and undervolted the cpu. But oced the GPU?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2

I'm trying it right now. -150mv seems perfectly stable but I can't judge battery yet.

wow. sounds good. would you be able to run quadrant test as well, and see what you get please?

4470 for me: http://imgur.com/a/FiLC1
Quadrant lasts for a really short time though, < 1 minute. There can't be thermal throttling. The phone gets just barely warm to touch.
Edit: 5518 with performance governor and everything else the same.

Completely forgot about this thread.
Battery life = superb. 3 hr screen time on average, and if lucky almost 4.
No throttling at 1.35GHz, but I haven't tested 1.51GHz. I also managed to get to -187.5 uv undervolt, which is superb. I run all my clockspeeds under 1 volt.
@ italia0101
Yup. OC'd the GPU, undervolted and underclocked the CPU to 1.35GHz. Temp I didn't check. I'll run one later

From 1%-35%

So -150mv ended up not being perfectly stable. I thought it was good but it crashed about once a day. Now I'm trying -125. Yesterday I managed to do 12 hrs with 4h screen on. (wifi on and airplane mode 24/7, since I have wifi and gvoice all day).

Has under volting helped at all with the heat issues? Really annoying how it gets so warm after browsing for like 15 min.
I assume this voids the warranty?

I was on faux and i could under volt to a maximum of 125 stable, but honestly, i haven't found any improvement on battery life and overheating.
I'm using Franco now, that doesn't have uv, and my battery life is much much better than on faux...

Should I undervolt?

After reading this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2052496
I found I got the "faster" type. As I understand it, this means my cpu has less power/frequency needs, and so, because the stock kernel is configured to manage any of the possible cpu binnings, the settings are probably not the optimal ones for my particular unit. So, does this mean my phone is running at a higher voltage than it needs? Should I undervolt it? How?

While faster CPU binning does mean that you CPU can run more stable at a lower voltage, UV doesn't save you that much of battery.
Most of the battery goes to the screen. The least I have seen around is 50%. Then the next culprit is the radio. And you also have RAM, storage, etc. UV might give you around 1% more battery or so.
You can try UV if you want, but I don't think you need, or should do it.

Actually that's not the in my phone. I don't know what I'm doing wrong but AndroidOS, Google Services or MediaServer usually show up as the battery top drains. I have to say I'm on wifi most of the time and the screen time is usually around 1 hour per day. I'm using all the sync features, google now etc, so I I thought reducing the 384Mhz voltage would have some impact

No, I'm not. Looking at my cpu modes graph, it makes sense to me that reducing the voltage at which the cpu runs at 384mhz would reduce the consumption:

While it is debatable whether you will save any noticeable amount of battery by undervolting, I have found it to significantly reduce the heat produced by the CPU. Our SOC's are great undervolters, so I don't see any reason NOT to undervolt.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2

heat = energy, I highly doubt you can feel a difference in temperature but not in battery lol. How are you guys undervolting? I tried setCPU but it doesn't work, is a custom kernel needed?

I think the battery usage by the screen that is being reported includes more than just the amount of battery used to power the screen. Due to project butter, touching the screen ramps up the CPU to high frequencies, like 1026 - 1512 GHz, making the phone buttery smooth yet sucking the life out of it's battery. In other words, the screen usage includes its touch boost processing usage as well, which in its self is allot of usage. Basically, UV should improve battery life significantly.

Still noone tells me how to do it xD

You need to install a custom kernel that allows undervolting then use an app such as system tuner to undervolt.
Mine shows as a nominal CPU and I could under volt quite a bit. Makes a nice difference to heat and battery life is noticeably better.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2

Okay, I thought rooting would be enough Honestly, I'm liking the stock kernel overall, what's the closest to stock kernel that allows undervolting I can find? If there's no such thing, what do you recommend me?
Thanks in advance

The easiest way, with the minimun amount of work, would be flashing motley kernel. UV by default and you faster binning CPU is fully accounted for.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2021437
Trinity kernel also UV by default. He has his own website here
http://forums.derkernel.com/index.php/topic,47.0.html
Download the zip file, flash it in recovery, wipe cache/dalvik and you're good to go.
You can also try other kernel/ROM that support UV. Most likely you will need a control app.

Every phone can handle different uv levels, mine seems to be -150, and I have "fast" cpu. You can try higher but don't set the voltage to be "on boot" or else you'll get the bootloop or freeze.

Nexus CPU Temperature

Hello guys..
People have reported that nexus 4 gets too hot, too warm...but too does not say any number..
Lets talk about numbers here
After normal use (facebook,gmail, light apps) for 30 mins my CPU temp is 49-50 (Celsius)
After playing Need for speed most wanted for 30 mins my CPU temp is 62-64 (Celsius)
After talking on phone for 30-40 mins my CPU temp is 52-54 (Celsius)
My average CPU temp is 50 (Celsius)
is it normal....?? or should i be worried..
It feels a little uncomfortable while holding it at 60 (Celsius) will a case help me in feeling more comfortable )
What is it for you guys..??

I believe the temperature limit is 70 degrees, or that just might be trickster mod or my motley kernel.

Your temperature seems normal to me, just this one seems to high for me:

Maybe you are in a place with bad signal? What is the room temperature?
After 30 mins of call my CPU temp is about 40°C...
But, average CPU temp 50°C... it's high unless heavy use yes, is it an app who calculated that?
In idle (after 15 / 20 mins) what is your CPU temp? Maybe a rogue app in the background who use your CPU
Maybe a case will be more comfortable for you but it keeps more heat...

Thanks for the reply man
I am on stock kernel..have not rooted yet
Ya cell reception is bad in my area so it may be high..after 15-20 idle mins my cpu temp is 43-44 (Celsius)
I maself calculated average..i am not quite sure about the average though
Can u please tell me how can i find out if there is any rogue app in background causing CUP temp to increase..?

There are 3 options to reduce the temperature:
- open your phone and place a copper plate http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2144652
- try a task/process manager/monitor from the Playstore to find active background apps (I don't think it will really help...)
- or root your phone and edit the file "thermald.conf" in system/etc/
I didn't open my phone, it's a bit risky, so I modified the " thermald.conf" file.

Here is shown at which temperature your phone limits its speeds (found at youtube)

And I've also placed a modified "thermald.conf"-file where the temp. limit is set at 31°C (°C always means the battery-temps - not cpu!)
at 31°C: limits the cpu from 1.5GHz to 1.2GHz, gpu full speed (400MHz)
at 35°C: cpu stays at 1.2GHz, limits gpu from 400MHz to 325MHz
...
at 39°C: cpu to 1.1GHz, gpu to 200MHz, lcd display brightness reduced
...
at 45°C: all limited (same value than orig. file has)
If you modify the file, don't forget permissions: -rw-r--r--
hope I could help

Can someone explain this overheating paranoia? I'm not being a ****, I just really don't get it. I've seen my GPU on my computer hit 90* and its fine. Most processors are rated for temperatures way higher than 60*C, so why is everyone freaking out about 60*? Of course the phone will get warm, its a pocket sized computer with a dedicated graphics chip.

Heat Problems

Does anyone encounter problems with heat? When I play a simple game like Fallout Shelter my phone reaches 50 degrees celsius.
It only heats up so much only on games. Or when I charge it but 50 degrees seems too much.
Is there an app to reduce the cpu frequency so it cools down? Kernel Adiutor doesn't work for me. Or I don't know how to use it properly.

never seen it get to 50.
are you stock or ....

Im on Google Edition by Cydras. It works fine except for the temperature. It heats when I charge it or when I play some games. around 50 degrees

On stock, my record was 39,5. I played games like Heroes 3 HD, Hearthstone, Bloons City.

Fallout Shelter seems a low grafic game and I didn't thought it will make the phone heat.

Fallout: Winter Edition. Play, if your hands are cold. Cool feature!

Battery only reaches ~41°C max while charging, but it normally drops down into the 30's. I don't think I've seen it go past that, but that temp was seen while I was in a hot area.

I played injustice for an hour straight and never heat up. I am on stock
LeEco Pro3

If you're rooted, try setting the gpu governor to power save for that game.
I noticed with my last phone with an sd810, some games would max the gpu when there was no need to. Even some of the escape the room type games did it, while others didn't.

It does not make sense. Exposed alone will not raise temperature. You could be using some super heavy Xposed modules that make CPU to work at full speed. I cannot think of any modules that would do that though.

I've yet to see my temp rise above 40, and I've been gaming a lot lately

It depend on the game, on Need for Speed Unlimited is just warm but on Fallout Shelter is really hot, I don't understand what it does. It doesn't have a lot of grafix.

The stock plastic case is quite bad thermal wise. (Most cases probably are.) Although 50C is actually quite cool for a CPU if that's what you're reading.
