    Just a question on battery temperature: How hot is too hot? On the battery monitoring screen in engineering screens it shows "time above 45C" (113F) which I'm assuming is the upper threshold of optimal batt operating temp. Sometimes after heavy use my 9360 gets quite hot and I'll see that it will show the length of time in seconds above that temperature. Does the processor have some kind of throttling that kicks in if it gets too hot? Just curious, with mobile processors getting faster all the time and unlike a pc that has a fan for cooling. Also, am i right to assume that battery temperature really refers to the processor's temperature, since the battery itself doesn't really feel that hot compared to the part of the phone where the processor is located?

    it only gets that hot with one or two apps I use, generally I don't have overheating issues. But I will say that before installing .649 I never had it go above 45C before!

    tends to really warm up when under heavy use and is plugged in and charging. thats when my 9900 gets warmish.
