what app are you guys using to monitor CPU temps when overclocking? I saw SetCPU shows battery temp but not CPU temp.
I downloaded Tempmonitor, but when i select to show CPU temp it tells me i need a new kernel
the app says that only hacked D1's can show CPU temp...
you could search for "CPU Temperature Widget"
and you'll find my small widget which displays the cpu temp.
works on d2, so it should also work on dx ;P

installed it, however I'm wondering if it's any use. The only sensor option it gives me to use is the AK8973 sensor. Isn't that just the ambient temp sensor, and not the actual CPU sensor?
well, I'm from what I've read it is the temperature of the chip (AK8973),
BUT it seems to be close enough to the cpu to actually get the cpu temp.
I've ran the widget on a friends droid, and it showed the same temperature as setCpu, so it might not be 100% cpu temp, but you probably won't get any closer without a custom kernel :/
(and I didn't actually know that when I wrote and named the app (or posted it here))
Alright well it should work then. Im using that plus the battery temp to get an idea of hot things are.
Does anyone know about what temps are safe for the cpu and battery in the x?

Is it possible? Or is a custom kernel needed?
Only measure battery temperature
I recently over clocked my CPU to 1.1Ghz and under volted it. My battery gets hot around 40°C on normal use. Can it be the cause?
40 deg is normal..Though depends in the environment you use it..
can someone post the idle and load cpu temperatures of the device.
i think mine is overheating especially during games.
I was wondering that is it possible to undervolt our GPU and has it been found yet? My Galaxy S2 had GPU UV and it had a major impact on gaming temperature. If we could control it and CPU voltages then there might be chance to avoid thermal throttling. and maybe increase battery life..
