I think that my threads it's a little ironic, I start talking about my problem:
I bought a Nexus 10 few days ago (one week), and when I play some games that use a lot of 3D graphics, the tablet beggins hotter.
With an app I saw that it turns into 40ºC (the most) (playing with an high temperature, like 35ºC in air) but normally turns into 36ºC playing hard, or 35ºC watching movies at 720p, if I use the tablet for Google Chrome, Gmail etc it turns at 33ºC. Is it normal?
My tablet has the stock rom 4.2.2
Thanks for all and sorry for bad english... ^^
it is normal ... dont worry . keep your calm dude !!
if its not getting hot and freezes or restart , its allright .

Okey.. Thanks guy
Yesterday, I was playing a film for 3 hours at 720p and the nexus get 36 °C with no freeze or restart
I'm going to wait for some others answers ^^ and what happens if I decide undervolting the tablet?

The Exynos 5250 tends to run a bit on the hot side-- driving the screen with an A15 chipset does consume a fair bit of power. Undervolting might help, but probably not significantly (it's usually better for battery life than heat, and even then it's not a huge deal).
Play a great quality video on any player = warm but normal
Play any quality video from the internet on the browser itself or on any player = ridiculously warm, I mean REALLY warm
No clue why.
Temperature your giving us is battery temperature, CPU temp will be much higher (just saying in case you were feeling that its much hotter near cam than 40). If you want CPU temp. KTManta kernel provides it. And its like they say, until its not turning your device off its ok, mine nexus is rebooting and I saw 43 battery temp so you have so margin
Thanks guys^^ , and what happens if nexus reboot?
Enviado desde mi Nexus 10 usando Tapatalk 4 Beta
If it happens once in a while (lets say month or so) its nothing. Reboot prevents cpu to "blow into your face" if something went wrong, so its relatively good. If it happens a lot you need to get a replacement (my case).

Nice... So I hope that my tablet won't pass for that.. And where I live it's a very hot place (43°C in the street) so I think that 35 degrees in tablet is normal

Actually, if it happens more than once in normal operating parameters, I'd be concerned. Software onboard your device and the processor itself are supposed to automatically slam the brakes, so to speak and limit performance until excess heat is dissipated. Without this safeguard in place, I'd be worried.

I'm just impressed that your internals were cooler than ambient air temperature, which is fairly impressive (unless you brought it out from inside a house, in which case that makes more sense).
43 in street, in my house about 32 or 33 xD

Today I had a problem, I was playing GTA 3 (not dowloaded from Google Play) and suddenly the tablet freezes and started emit a sound..
I think that wasn't cause of overheating, because only was at 37ºC (when the tablet had get 40ºC many times and nothing)
Will be a problem of the app?

Non Google play (cracked) apps can usually have viruses. It'd be best to remove it or download a security app and scan it and all your other apps to see if any of them contain malware

Unlock bootloader and flash a custom recovery such as TWRP. Then you can flash the kernel just like flash a custom rom. I've tried Franco, Trinity KTmanta and many other default kernels of custom roms, and now I'm staying in ktmanta for a while because it include many parameters I can play with, although it can also get really hot. Franco might cause freeze in pa, at least on my tablet it did. Trinity kernel and default kernels of rootbox and pacman seems work fine.

Hello
My i9500 galaxy is rooted abd with Wanamlite rom
Im coming from iphone world, thought battery life going to be better with gs4 more than my old iphone4.
As you can see battery life is really bad, only maximum 3 hours of screen time..
i thought rooting and using wanamlite rom will improve it but thats not what happend
Can you please help me ànd tell me how ppl get more than 5-6 hours on screen time
Thanks alot
You from Israel, right? Me too, so don't worry, I think I can help you :fingers-crossed:
It seems like you have many wakelocks, which can be prevented very easily:
1. Did you disabled preinstall apps you didn't need? It can be done via Settings->More->Application Manager->ALL. Then, look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2260766 for apps you don't need for the phone to function.
2. Pull down the full notification area toggles and disable the Sync, NFC and S Beam and enable them only when you want to use them.
3. Install GSAM Battery and after full discharge show here the Screen brightness statistics + use auto brightness. Maybe your screen is bright always which consumes much more battery (about 3 times more than Dark/Dim brightness).
4. Install BetterBatteryStats and post screenshots from there also after full discharge.
Hope it'll help
P.S. You can PM me in Hebrew if you like

lol then whats the use of getting new S4? why didnt u get galaxy core or any other mid range mobile? these smartphones are supposed to be used with all the bells and whistles... i get about 5-6hours of battery life with my Exynos version and i keep almost everything on except for the motion scroll. the eye tracking tech in S4 is sick and fun
well to OP, i would recommend u to get the Stock firmware installed or go for Omega roms. Omega roms are awesome cause u have the choice to install anything urself!
i have not used Omega on my S4 cause i just got my S4 few days back and i want to use it stock
my recommendation to u is either go for stock rom, or go for Omega
Actually, I don't need all that stuff from Samsung.

If it is a graphic intensive game there while be a lot of heat generated in a short amount of time. But if not there might be something wrong with your device. Try a factory reset.

Does it get got around the battery area if so it could mean that there is large amount be discharged from your battery which is generating heat or it could be a faulty battery if not. Then it just could be soemthing wrong with the firmware try a factory reset if that doesn't wrk then take it to the place you purchased it and ask to have it repaired because it might be a manufacturing fault and explain to them what the problem is.

Ok.. try these, turn off all the gesture type things, smart pause and smart scroll. Keep wifi off when not in range. Also keep brightness a bit low(50-60%). This will surely help reducing the overheating.

I got the battery for like 24.00.. like new but used, works like brand new though. It's easy enough to replace, the back just pops off the n7 with a little pry. While I had the back piece off, I sprung the 2 contact points up and out some so the wifi antenna got better connection. Went from 1-2 bars to nearly full across the entire house..

If you ever think your gpu/phone might have an issue simply install some of the benchmarks and compare with the users on XDA :good:

Mine gets hot while playing games. That's it. I don't have the temp displayed on screen, just going off of feel. Is there anything else running in the background?
I wouldn't be too concerned about 105°F either way. My Xperia could be used as a heating pad and was still running strong after nearly 2 years of use. Really wish I hadn't dropped it.
Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk
Something you an try is turning down the screen brightness a lot. What I would do if I were you would be check out the thread about lowing the resolution to 1080p. The phone will run cooler and be a little snappier since the GPU won't be nearly as taxed. The only issue you will have would be if you use moto display. The camera is a little off too, but you get used to clicking below the video button to record. Also, you are not going to notice the resolution difference
Seems to be better now. I was using Nova Launcher when I first set it up, and I'm using Google Now Launcher and seems to be normal now. Either that or it's settled now.

This topic has been discussed since the phone was released. Its display and GPU. I am rooted running trupure with frankenkirk and 1080p display setting. All is better and haven't had any heating issues like the stock ROM. I believe display setting will screw up moto features..

Try a different kernel. Stock seems to keep all cores at max for best user experience. This however gets the phone hot and reduces battery life.

I haven't made the switch to 1080p yet. The room and qhd are working fine for me. The only time my phone gets hot is when playing games for a certain amount of time. Other than that, I haven't had any heating issues.
I just notice I get better battery with 1080p setup. Also helps with phone not getting too hot as well when playing games.

It should work with no problems. Usually it is launchers, apps, and widgets that are specific to manufacturers (i.e. Samsung and LG interface, apps, and widgets) that are the issue. With Motorola keeping this phone almost true to vanilla, there should be very little if any issues changing resolution.

It will break moto display. I don't use any moto app/system that came with the phone. That could also add to better battery. Follow the instruction for 1080p. Just make sure root, SU installed, and terminal emulator. When you set it up, you will see your screen resolution change.
