My LG G2 VS980 has a average temperature of 135°F to 145°F. It's easy to cool down if I turn it off and stick it in a vent slot on my air conditioner.
Is this normal? I am running cloudy g2 3.3 and durimanx kernal. I am a heavy user, on my phone 90% of the time it's on.

that's around 55-60°C? and you say you are a heavy user? that's normal then... especially on a hotter day...
dorimanx kernel will by default prevent the device going over 78°C (172°F) so there is nothing to worry about (and you can even lower that limit in dorimanx app if it concerns you - i have it set to 74°C eventhough i'm not such a heavy user)...

Beejive running on 2.2 uses the push api to my knowledge. But it seems like its murdering my g2 battery. Is it all in my head?
My android system drain seems to be higher then my screen drain. Its usually the other way around. What do u guys think?
Nope, beejive is really a battery drainer. I don't think it uses push correctly? Lol

Yeah I agree. I think it's like this across all devices

What would be the temperature of the phone when overheating?
Sometimes it feels like the temperature is very high but I don't know if it's overheating or not. The maximum I had was 36.0°C/96.8°F.
how can you tell? the phone temp keeps staying at 0C...

i have setcpu profile set to: >37 °C 600 mhz so it usually never goes higher than maybe 38°C
if you think its hot if must be around 40° or more
Lol today mine went up to 49°C

Its now 32 Its working for 16 hrs. I wonder how is it while charging
Hello so I bought my N4 on the Dec 3 batch and got it around Feb, the works fine and all but I have 2 main questions
1. The phone gets hot doing simple tasks like browsing the web or watching a youtube video. I am running the CM 10.1 Nightlies and Franco's Kernel r110. Sometimes the phone can get really hot which I then stop using it to prevent any damage. Does this have anything to do with the Custom ROM or kernel because my friend's N4 is stock and unrooted and hes doesn't have any heat issues.
2. The battery on the phone is not what I expected. I hear people who get 4-5 hours on screen time, but I get around 2-2.5. Also I am on a Canadian provider which is Mobilicity if that has anything to do with it. I leave 3G on mostly and just surf the web when the screen is on.
Thanks for any input you guys leave.
If you can take it back to stock and don't root because that is why your friend's N4 is normal besides what more do you want that the N4 doesn't have?

I like the root features and also cm 10.1 if its the ROM that's making it overheat then I know to change or find a better one

Hi,
As always "overheating" is very subjective, it depends on how you feel the heat.
CPU / battery temperature?
In any case there is a protection, a thermal throttling. At certain CPU / battery temperatures the CPU frequence is automatically lowered to help reduce the temperature. In extreme temperature the phone shutdown to avoid damages so no worries.
In 3G the phone heated a little more, no problem here that the phone heats up when you re browsing or you're watching a video on Youtube.
You can try to undervolt a little to see if that helps.
As for battery life it depends on too many factors... CPU settings, screen brightness, signal quality, etc...
Search about your questions in this section or in the General section, there are lots of threads about it.
What temperature does your phone actually get? When running stock it would be impossible to see my phone get other 43c and that was only under very heavy gaming but would usually be at 32-36c ive noticed my phone does get hotter when using mobile data instead of wifi. Now running rasbean with franco m1 and temps abit lower gaming has improved greatly but i dont think there is any difference in battery life compared to stock but your 2-2.5 screen time does seem abit low as i get with just web browsing maybe few youtube vids and few minutes of games around 4 hours screen time but i also envy those who are getting 5+ hours

Forgot to mention thats 4 hours on wifi on mobile internet i should be able 2 get over 3 hours
The phone gets hot very easily in my opinion idk the exact temp but I have the ringke slim on it and its definitely noticeable from the top of the phone to the bottom. Also does my carrier have anything to do with it because brightness on my phone is pretty low and simple stuff tends to drain my battery.

When i was using a case on my phone it was getting hot from top to bottom but now i don't use case it doesn't get as hot and usually stays cooler at bottom half. I have found most accurate way to check your battery temp is by going on call and dialling *#*#4636#*#* and a hidden menu will come up and tap battery information you will see temp, there was an app that had same info but cant remember name so when you think its hot dial that code and let me know what temp it shows. Also are you using mobile internet or wifi when its getting hot?

I think it usually gets hot when using 3G so I'm assuming mobilicity isn't that good for this phone? Also I can clearly tell its the top part that is hot when the case is on
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Yep mine also gets noticeably hotter on 3g and yeah it gets hot at the top but after a while will spread to bottom to thats normal. I am currently running rasbean rom with franco milestone 1 and also downloaded pimp my rom from play it has various tweaks and mods so i just flashed battery saving which supposed to help with battery not sure what it does though lol but i managed to get 3 hours 40 mins screen time half of time it was on minimum brightness and other half on 40% was just internet browsing and im sure you will agree that is very good considering i was using 3g the whole time
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Just an update you should try undervolting on franco as i have now done it and it definitely helps with heating and i am pretty sure it has vastly improved my battery life if your interested i will post the values i have used which seems to be perfectly stable so far
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Yes please, do I need any app for this or can I just do it in the settings?
do you have the franco app? As that was what i used to change my setting if yes just go on frequencies/voltages go down to voltages and change from there i have attached screenshot of my setting and make you do not set voltages on boot as if it is unstable your phone is not going to boot up if that is ticked, you will have to change that everytime you reboot until you are sure its stable then u can set on boot

Do you have a bad signal? Because if so then that will drain your battery a lot more quickly and also possibly make the phone heat up more.

My G2 tends to get worryfyingly warm when im using a bit more cpu intensive tasks. The cpu managed to get to 67°C when playing 3 races in NFS Most Wanted and managed to get 76° when doing Antutu benchmarks twice and it started throttling. And battery temp stayed around 40~45°. Idk, if this is supposed to be normal(please bear in mind my previous phone was HTC Evo 3D, which barely got hot ). When idling, the phone is just a bit warm. I'm running OptimusRs Pro V4.1 Stock kernel. Is this supposed to be normal for quad core phones or should I get it to service?

Oh, and when phone is idle, the cpu is 42°C and battery is 32°

This is normal the g2 is a very powerful phone without a fan eventually phones will have to have small fans and phones may be noisier than today's phones

I know that, but it tends to get hot very fast, a couple of minutes heavy tasking and its already throttling

Is it really normal? I mean after 10 mins of browsing even the screen gets really hot..
see if you can check your kernel's cpu profile settings. could be that it's not allowing the cpu to idle when it should be. alot of times there are various profiles you can set it to 'on demand/powersaver/ect...' and this will change the behavior of the cpu's throttling.
Well now we're in the summer and the phone will naturally get hotter since the only thing that cools it down is the environment. If you're browsing under hot sunlight with 100 percent brightness then yes, it is going to get really hot.

its not normal bro. i have the same issue on all aosp roms and cloudyflex roms. my phone becomes really hot. if you give a shot at cloudystock 2.2, your phone wont heat up at all. try it out and be sure to make a nandroid before. just incase if you change ur mind and want to get back to this rom. i wouldnt recommend it though, anthing above 25*C for the battery is bad for its health since its a lithium battery.while the cpu heating up to 70*C is fine i actually use custom throttling to reduce my phone heating that much, i keep the throttling at 60*C
No it gets hot even at 60 percent brigthness while browsing. NFC, BT, 3G are off, i am using only 2 widgets, The top of the phone gets really hot... my sis has S3 and it never ever gets that hot, so do my old Huawei phone..

Yes it is for intensive gaming, especially one that lasts 2hrs long.
When they say "10 hours of screen time" they mean 10 hours spread during the day, not in one go.
The phone gets hot. The battery gets hot. The warmer a Lithium battery gets, the less efficient and more rapidly discharging it becomes.
Oh ok.. I got it all wrong o.o ty so its nothing wrong on my battery
