Code:
echo "modprobe bq27x00_battery" | sudo gainroot
MohammadAG, I get a clue about it, because you mention that reboot can happen if battery is low.

Is it possible to have hostmode without loosing temperature (battery) monitoring?
*yawn* (sorry)
That's an age old known issue - bq27x00_battery.ko breaks bme, so dsme on finding bme dead meat decides to reboot.
Anyway thanks for reporting.
Maybe you want to vote for https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9314, or hope for jrbme which will come in a few days with a first pre-alpha for hostmode (mentioned in a prev post)

[edit] oops, I missed your questions. For now there's nothing monitoring battery and even less temperature during hostmode. Temperature shouldn't usually become a big issue though (no charging). Jrbme has battery voltage monitoring and over-temperature shutdown on its requirement specs list. Not sure how far we'll get for temperature without any little hint from Nokia though.
cheers
