Thunderbolt running HOT....

---

My TB has seem to be running hot constantly all day even without heavy use. I just checked it after 15 mins of inactivity and it still feels hot to the touch and the battery is still reading 108F/42.7C. Anyone else having this problem?

After 45 min of inactivity I turned off the Wifi and now 10 mins later its cooled down to 38C.

Is it Charging? My phones get hot when they Charge

On the first charge my battery was hot 45c on the second full charge it holds at 32c. All temps are heavy use with and without wifi.

Usually this happens because Wifi, GPS or Bluetooth are on. Turning off can help.

Also one time I had a problem with my Incredible, it was so hot. I finally figured out it was the stock mail app, some reason it was having a problem, so it kept trying to get my mail, but couldn't. So it could be an app. Usually if my phone starts getting hot, I just reboot. I think the app craigsphone causes my phone to get hot sometimes. There is now way to exit the app unless you press HOME, the back key dont work.

What tools are you using to measure your temps?
