Is this normal temperature or do i need to RMA - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, when I browse the web on Google chrome it reaches about 45-50c using a custom kernel ( Franco) should I RMA or is this normal ?

use the stock and if it gives you the same problem then maybe. do u have a custom rom as well?

so, youre saying that your device reached human body temp only twice? i guess you have never streamed anything nor ever played any cpu intensive games on your device. well, unless you live in a fridge or you are mistaking battery temperature for cpu temperature(they are different).

Ok you are right. Suggest me an app or widget to monitor that

I use PA3+

mine will reach 41-42C while browsing the net for over 30mint on 3G while 33-37C on wifi

Normally in 30s with the exception being intense apps that push lo-mid 40s.

Indeed it is.. but the link is incorrect. I use the paid one.
Here is the LINK
It has great features to show how many cores r running and the CPU load.. plus graphs etc. I haven't used it completely but it's rocking!

I never like it to get above 45 c.
my setcpu profiles kick in at 44c
Heat
I am on DINC # 3. DINC # 1 would, for no particular reason, start to superheat, getting to to 108-109F. By 113F it would start rebooting to the initial screen, then go black, then go to the initial screen, then go black ... 4-13 times. That got very old so I sent it back.
Heat can be an issue.

does anyone if it is safe to underclock??
About (122MHz ~ 245MHz)
Probably
It's stable on 122mhz on mine. But it's super slow and laggy. But battery saving

So is it safe???
Or should I just put it to powersave mode??
I heard that it may decrease ur phones battery life. And from others that u need to put it at least to 245MHz so that the system can run!

safe on mine
122mhz works on mine and is very consistent. It never crashed on that frequency. Don't know if it'll work on other phones.
Anyways thanks gonna underclock!!!

I would also say two hundred better safe than sorry
Also battery on mine at eight hundred mega hertz is still eight or nine hours so really its only if you had no charger for longer than that that you would under clock

I've noticed that the battery level is very unstable. For example the LG Optimus 2x's battery level changes every 1% but on the LG-GT540 it changes every 3-10%

? Dude you have problems lol my battery gets to be around 45c and CPU much higher.
Not even hot. Get a case.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
You must be looking at the battery temperature.
Use system tuner or something to check the actual CPU temp.
If it's hot when phone is supposed to be idling or doing simple tasks you must have a run away app or something causing it.
Also check you haven't left the governor set to performance or anything like that.

Nexus 4 4.3 not charging when overheated

As the title says. It stops charging.
If I press *#*#4636#*#* it shows ac connected but not charging.
This started on 4.3. Never saw this on 4.2.2

It's probably a safety net feature. To avoid complete meltdown. Charging heats up the phone too.

Yes it might be but it is really weird cause when it stops charging, it doesn't resume once the phone has cooled down. You have to unplug and replug.
Which isn't very helpful.
Btw totally stock.

That's happened to me when play in summer and just use the fan. Checking the cpu temp shouldn't clock past 50 degrees or it gets pretty bad. I usually just place it in the fan, then on the air conditioner for a minute or two and usually keep the cpu status app open to watch the drop in temperature. Atleast Nexus keeps this safety throttle, S4 would probably give you a nice bacon house.

I think is not CUP related but battery related. I am trying to upload 2 pics but for some reason upload is not working.

Well if the cpu heats up so will the battery both are working hand in hand. It's like your engine is hot and so will your spark plug be. For the safety of the parts and since lithium ion batteries are dangerous when overheated, it's a safety net.

Haha. Thanks I am Greek not Russian
The two screenshots just show how the one in the higher temp is still charging and a few minutes later it stopped and the other one with the low temp says that battery is overheated, AC connected but not charging.
The guru app I think it helps a bit as about 5%, but no more than that.

Nexus 4, KitKat 4.4.2: 100% CPU

Hi!
Sometimes, out of nothing, my Nexus 4 heats and the 2nd core locks down at 100%. The temperatures raises to more than 34 (battery) and 48 (cpu) Celusius.
I tried to kill every application and service, one by one, but none of them changed anything. The only solution is reboot.
Anyone knows what's happening?
Thanks.
Regards.
1.What are those app icons in the status bar?
2. Is this stock?
3. Did you try factory reset?

Why don't you do volume+down for screenshot, android has it built in...And is your phone rooted? If it is can you try greenify then see if CPU usage drops?

Thanks for the info. I'll give it a try. But I still would like to know which app is causing this...
And (weird), why only the 2nd core? It seems like a very specific bug.

Sure.
Even after killing all apps/services with SystemPanel the 2nd core is still at 100% and the CPU is at more than 54 Celsius...

@Ace42 do you using cm11 or trebuchet apk like stand alone laucher? If yes from where you grabed it? Thnx
Sent from my Nexus 4
I assume it's the 4.2.2 camera bug that was in the news this week.
I have seen it many times on my Nexus 7.
I've finally found out what's causing the problem. It's AdAway.
When it can't download the hosts' file updating, it locks down one core and that's causes the cpu heating.
There is a bug (#476) about this problem.
Thank you everyone who tried to help me.
Regards.
