[Galaxy S III General] skennelly:
I have read (will post the link if I can find it again) that if a battery gets to 140°F then it can go into a self heating mode, not allowing it too cool down, and eventually catch fire. However, I have accidentally left my dx charging in my car on a hot day and when I came back out, it had shut down and had a "battery too hot" notification. That phone would power off if it got too hot.

[Galaxy S III General] nodstuff:
My gnex once hit 110c CPU temp and it still works fine, it was regularly hitting 80-90c during benchmarks.

To say that 70c will damage a CPU is absolute nonsense, a quad core CPU running at 1.4ghz will hit 65-70c no problem under full load before temperature throttle kicks in and limits the frequency to cool it off.

Battery temp is a different story, 70c battery temp will probably end up damaging your phone/battery.

Nonsense. Absolute nonsense.
[Galaxy S III General] wakahuula:
Do you really mean Celsius? Water boils at 100°C and I don't think that a CPU could even stand such heat..
[Galaxy S III General] nodstuff:
Yes I do mean Celsius, and a CPU isn't made of water...

It shut off as that is the safety cut off point for that particular CPU.

I had temperature throttle turned off.

Quite a few people have hit that temperature, go to the gnex forums and ask Simms22 if you want further proof.

I KNOW a CPU can handle that heat because I have actually seen it.
[Galaxy S III General] Hammer_Of_The_Gods:
Hi,

I agree with nodstuff and I can confirm ;)

The same thing with my Gnex (not with the same kernel :D) With a modified CPU temp limit my Gnex is going up to 98°C, never try with the CPU temp limit disabled but indeed it shut down at 110°C, it's a fact and it's in some doc of TI.

And about the temp of the SIII here we talk about the temp of the battery, not the CPU temp, this is not the same thing, although there is some correlation (but actually with, for example, a battery temp of 50°C, we don't know the real and actually CPU temp)..

When will you have an CPU temp in the SIII??? There is a CPU temp sensor but If I'm not wrong for an application to read the temp the kernel must support it (it's hardcoded).And as far as I know actually there is no way of knowing the CPU temp.

At first with the Gnex it was the same thing, no CPU temp and Franciscofranco has enabled it (the reading by an app) in his app (and also with anothe 3rd apps after) so we can see the CPU temp in real time.

I really missed this feature with the SIII... :(
[Galaxy S III General] fatekills:
May b it can handle so much of heat ..but the question is about using the device whn its hot..do u think its will b very convenient to use the device whn the device is at 100 degree?

I guess its not possible !
[Galaxy S III General] sebarkh:
I will make such comments.

They are said to be true :)

Comparing it to oven is very wrong, as oven gets 200-300°C.

Hey can you hold your devices with gloves when it take 110°c I think you have two pairs of heat resistant gloves
[Galaxy S III General] nodstuff:
The CPU is at 110c, not the whole phone.

:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S III General] fatekills:
Its not just the cpu.. when the heat is dissipated the whole area including the screen gets hot.
[Galaxy S III General] Hammer_Of_The_Gods:
Hi,

Hot for sure but obviously not the same temperature of the CPU.

Temperature dissipated, yes, but not 100% transmitted at all the phone. CPU at 110°C you can imagine that the screen is not at this temperature for example, like the back cover, otherwise beware of burns and it's not the case.

When my Gnex reached 98°C it was hot but not unable to hold in hand.

Guys, you never used a Gnex (or another phone maybe) without a CPU temp limit, so disabled, or a modified CPU temp limit with an higher limit before thermal throttling...? The phone is still usuable.when I read you speak about very hot, extremely hot, or overheating with a battery temp of 45°C... Should not you know the CPU temp... :D

Ok the battery temp could be useful but not as much as the CPU temp...
[Galaxy S III General] surender9999:
Nodstuff why you not understand the temperature theory for CPU or mobiles if your CPU take in 110°c temp it can caused many problem and reduce deficiency of your CPU.

Other people are saying all this thing so plz listen carefully and don't run your phone on 110°c
[Galaxy S III General] :
Hummm.... surender9999 :) :

nodstuff (I think :D) don't let his phone go all the time at 110°C, it's an extreme situation and in all case at 110°C the CPU shutdown automatically... it's a protection by TI so... but we agree a CPU always at this temp or almost at this temp... not very good :p:D

I think you underestimate some capacities of our CPUs... When you say that 70°C can damaged our CPUs... It's wrong.

In this case don't use your phone or undeclock it to 1Ghz and use it by step of 5 min, not more :D

And do not mix CPU/battery temp...

Indeed more you use your CPU at higher temp, more the life can be reduced... Even at stock CPU freq (or with stock kernel) while playing a game for example or while browsing in 3g for a long time, do you really think your CPU temp is at 70°C or less??? NO!

70°C for a CPU even in a phone is nothing... there is always a marge about temp limit's manufacturer and that the CPU can really handle+some software protection, so 70°C for the CPU there is no cause for alarm.

It is further necessary to have a CPU temp reading in real time like the Gnex...

I'm sure that even with a stock kernel you'd be really surprised to see some temps of your CPU...

On the other side if it was the battery temp at 70°C, here ok, maybe there is something wrong and dangerous.

And nobody said it was good or not dangerous or anything like that to run our CPUs at 110°C , but it's possible for a short time. I personnally never see someone burn his CPU, and I can say in the Gnex section there is some crazy guys about overclock and benchs who have reached the limits (or almost) of this CPU and no died Gnex :D, but I agree the life of the CPU may be reduced.
[Galaxy S III General] sebarkh:
Ok. Aftr all this we can say that cpu temp is not the same as phone temp when holding.

The CPU can withstand temperatures like 100 C.

Turning off a couple off apps can not decrease the temperatures signuficantly.

OP, surrender then. :cool:

9999 times.

:)
[Galaxy S III General] nodstuff:
*facepalm*

I obviously understand it better than you do, so stop telling me what I do or don't understand.

Nobody said 110c was a good temperature, I was just correcting you when you made the absolutely stupid statement that 70c would damage a CPU, you were wrong and I was proving it.

Secondly don't try and tell me what to do with my own phone, I know what it can or cannot do and it is obvious that I know a lot more about it than you do.

You need to stop replying now because each reply is sillier than the last and you aren't even offering proof, just saying things like "oh the humanity, please spare the life of your phone, do you not know what you do!" (Obviously paraphrased/translated)

If you want to come in here and be the CPU safety officer, then first of all you need to go and educate yourself about the difference between battery temp and CPU temp, find out the safe working temperature for this cpu (I already know, but it would be no fun if I just told you)

And actually understand how quickly a CPU heats up, and how quickly it cools down, if it hits 98c and then the load drops, the temp will also drop, quite quickly.

As for the whole phone getting really hot, well that's just not true, yes there is some dissipation through the back and screen, but not the temp displayed from the CPU, that is the INTERNAL CORE TEMPERATURE, not the temp of the surrounding plastic or glass, it fluctuates rapidly and luckily the S3 has no CPU temp sensor because never before have I seen so many people *****ing and crying about heat in a phone, its ridiculous.

Don't reply anymore, you don't know what you are talking about.
[Galaxy S III General] fatekills:
Guys .. the topic is not about how much ur phone can withstand, its about ur s3 gettin warm/hot during regular usage.

So if anyone is having any issues with the temp of s3. they can mention here .
[Galaxy S III General] nodstuff:
So now we can report our phones getting "hot" in this thread and your thread?

Wow, thanks guys, what a service you provide! Not one, but two threads where we can report heat related non-problems.

You guys are the best! :thumbup: :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S III General] fatekills:
U don hav to decide who is the best ! thread is only for monitoring the temp so that ppl wil know if the temp which they are gettin on their device is normal or not . nothin else !

Hope thats clear to you !
[Galaxy S III General] sebarkh:
You are the first person ine this thread that say it's about monitoring...

Anyway I think we get more and more less and less valuable threads.

And the number of unnecessary false beliefs and opinions is rising.

Anyway we all been noobs back one day...so it's better to humbly respond and explain...
[Galaxy S III General] jody2k:
Its not nonsense, I have repaired simelar phones in the past with a oven temperture of 130-150 degrees. Certainly the cpu will manage a heat of 70 degrees, i dont say its normal.

[Galaxy S III General] fatekills:
I agree that cpu can withstand 100 degree. but the question is whether 100 degree is normal ?
[Galaxy S III General] :
Hi,

Finally I think we have the CPU temp...:

On the screenshots the temp that show System Tuner Pro is for the CPU and on the second screenshot we see the battery temps that are different from those of System Tuner.

And some quick tests that shows what I said (or what I think):

CPU temp after wake-up the phone: 33°C->battery temp about 28°C

CPU temp after some quick benchs: about 61°C->battery temp about 36°C

And while browsing the CPU temp is about 40°C.

Running at 200Mhz/1400Mhz.

So as the screenshots shows it's really the CPU temp.

Using the latest Siyah kernel (v1.5 beta 2) and the latest System Tuner version.

Finally we have it in real time!

Yup, I think this says it all.

70c is totally safe and acceptable with this CPU, and its max temp before shut off is 120c.

[Galaxy S III General] alias_neo:
Guys don't confuse CPU core temp with anything else. Expect the cores to run hottest of the parts in the device, but not the ridiculous temps mentioned here.

Besides, it shouldn't take too long to search for a spec sheet with temperature specs on.
[Galaxy S III General] realfelix:
Just got the Galaxy S3 for my second device(mostly work device) and can confirm that it really gets pretty hot. And as far as I am concerned in IT electronics( as this is my current occupation ) 70°C is really nothing for a CPU, the battery is another term as 50/60°C + will surely rip off some lifetime. I've got a quadcore i7 cpu and a gtx580 in my desktop pc at home and have seen the GPU go up to 120/130°C without any harm or alarm from the PC. Same for the CPU, in heavy benchmarks like 3DMark or Cinebench R10 the temperature of the cores goes up to 100°C and the CPU itself 70°C and it is overclocked from 3,33ghz to 4,5 ghz and doesn't give me any problems so why would it do that in a phone. Absolutely nonsense, so people stop posting bull**** you know nothing about(with some exceptions)!

EDIT: And don't think that the CPU Core temp is the same as the CPU temp. The cores always get hotter than the whole die the CPU is made of. So 100, 110, 120 isnt really harmful as long as the CPU itself(the whole die) doesnt get that hot. The temperature threshold for a i7 975 Extreme CPU is 75°C for the whole CPU.
[Galaxy S III General] nodstuff:
Really?

So that's why I have personally seen my gnex CPU at 98c (I had temp throttle turned off) and had it switch off at 110c (checked in last_kmsg after reboot)

I think you, like a lot of people in this thread, are talking from your ****.

If you look above the max temp cut off for the exynos is 120c (taken from a file in the source code) so that puts an end to all this nonsense about "ridiculous" temps.

[Galaxy S III General] paintball23456:
NOOOOB we have a fu***** quadcore CPU in our phones, QUADCORE IN ANY THING GET'S UP TO ABOUT 70C when it's FULLY under load, PC CPU's have a MAX temp before it starts throttling the CPU down. Our phones have the same thing, the MAX for exynos 4 is 65c before the CPU starts being throttled to lower the temp, i once to a pentium 4 to 100c and it still worked. Your point is invalid.

Nothing really special....just set the device to airplane mode, so it won't search for service, at least mobile data. You can always download e-books for free online via various site and and read them with the kobo books app; idk if google books will let you load in a downloaded one. For game, better load up some emulators and play some old school favorites...rpgs for long term. Roms...the ICS/jellybean roms all have their bugs, though if you need a 100% working rom, can't go wrong with cm7 on gingerbread.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikesalty:
airplane mode

mxplayer

put some tvs or movies on your sd card

winamp

put some mp3's on your sd card

mantano reader

download some books, books, books, books, books, boooooooks.

Seriously, mantano reader is amazing and you can put like 1000 books on a 8gb sdcard without really noticing it, and the Evo screen is big enough to use as a mini reader. Plus if the book is in epub format than you can swipe up or down on the screen to make the text bigger or smaller and it will format it so you don't have to slide back and forth. If it's in pdf format then you can pinch to zoom or expand.

As for what books, if you're on vacation and looking for some thing light then go with some christopher moore books, if you're looking for something engaging, than anything by murakami, 1q84 is pretty amazing. The Flame Alphabet by Ben Marcus is great too.
