Are you using a custom rom? Kernel? Are you overclocked at all?

I'm having this issue with my incredible!!! Temp gets to 120 just from watching vids n the net.. gotta go back to Verizon over this since I couldn't replicate it when I went there.. its the only problem I've had ...

So its not rooted?

 

[kenbiz]

Nope.. stock. Bs that I gotta take the battery out n put it by the ac all the time...lol. but could just be my phone. Gotta deal with customer service..

i would recommend setcpu but u have to be rooted

How long are you using it before it gets to 120? Is the temp lower then 70 before you start? And you should not have to worry about battery temp till you get closer to 130.

yes setcpu is good for cpu temps but you can get battery temps from many battery wigets w/o root

Temps about 80 to 85.. then with in 3 or so hours gets up to 120. Shuts of from time to time.

^ yea that's about normal except for the shuting down thing. That might be a hardware issue like a loose soder point or something like that. Nothing you can do but get warranty replacement. Like I said you don't have to worry about battery temp till 130. Call CS they should send you a CLNR Droid if you tell that your phone is randomly shutting down
