[Official] CPU Temp Results

[jasonb]

So I had an interesting thought. Unless SetCPU is coded to access this on CPU sensor, the failsafe settings are less accurate, right?

yea, setcpu will still be reading the supposed battery temp, not the cpu temp.

if the cpu is hot the battery will also be hot. a failsafe of 44 or 45 deggres celsius should still be used.

of course the cpu won't be getting taxed when the phone is idle, and as long as you have the CPU temp in your notification panel you'll be able to see the current temp. hopefully setcpu will eventually work with the cpu temp sensor though.

I don't really trust the failsafe thing. I'll just lower it to 550 if I see with my own eyes that either the battery or cpu temp is too high. Failsafe doesn't seem like it would be that accurate.

Rats!! I just lost my new chip monitor. I've been runing BB7.4 and Taz1.1 since right after it was put on the website and it had been running good. Just now while surfing hard to see how high I could get the temp, I started getting automatically returned to the home screen. It happened with both the stock browser and with xScope. Then I started having restarts. Then it locked and I had to pull the battery. I then booted into recovery and reinstalled the BB7.4 from 2-4-10. All seems to be back to normal now. Running 950, as I have been doing since 2-4-10. I ran 1.0 ghz for a week or so prior to that. YMMV

alright the nandroid way didnt work...i kept getting a nandroid shutdown error.

How exactly do I do it the other way? Like jason did.

here is a link on how to get and use adb: Android Debug Bridge | Root Your Droid

here is a link to Taz's kernels with directions on how to install using adb: AllDroid - View topic - [Release] TazKernel 1.3GHz and TempMonitor Reborn (02/06/10)

you need to get the Android SDK and hook your phone up with usb to your computer. those are the directions i used. i have never done anything like this before and that was all the info i needed.

I read it and still don't really understand. What do you mean I need to get the android sdk?

i'll share some current temp results.

conditions:
-phone is in the multimedia charging dock with the battery at 100%
-wifi tethering, browsing this forum and streaming shoutcast internet radio 64kbps aac+ format songs
-screen on (has been on for at least an hour straight)
-been tethering for about an hour or so non stop.
-phone is set to run at 550mhz when charging
-room temp is 71F 33% humidity

-temp on the OMAP3430 sensor hovering around 55 degrees celsius(131F)

-temp on the AK8973 sensor hovering around 47- 48 degrees celsius(116-118F)

android sdk is a set of tools for developers (and us hackers) to use. there is a file you need to download and in the file there is a tools section. in the tools section there is a program called adb. thats what you'd be using.

i'm not good at explaining all this step by step, otherwise i would. hopefully somebody more wise than me can come in and help. this was my first time using the sdk and adb as well. so i'm not the best person to help you. that's why i simply provided the links that helped me.
