hi..i've searched in TMO, but i can't seem to find the answer..if there's an existing thread, please point it to me..

so the prob now is..when i got connected to 3G..the phone gets warm..i guess that's normal..however, when i browse the internet (especially streaming youtube videos)..it gets hotter..and the temp showed 47'C up to where i can't hold it long enough!! i'm afraid that the high temp might damage the internal components..

so..the question is..is this normal?what's your highest temp when surfing the net via 3G?

well thx..however, could u guys tell me what's the highest temp u got when browsing the net?

could u guys compare the temp when doing normal browsing, and streaming youtube?

does it stays below 40'C or exceeds 40'C?

well..i've tested it on my phone..browsing website and downloading a file ~100mb to ~150mb got me up to 40"C-41"c..but while streaming youtube (www.youtube.com), the temp gradually got up to 47'C....

and for some unknown reasons, the page(youtube) keeps refreshing after a certain period of time...

streaming youtube (via www.m.youtube.com - mobile version) was at least cooler than 47'C..specifically, 42'C..and i did not experience any refreshing problem of the video..

another question, what might be the prob to the constant refreshing/reloading of the youtube (while watching videos via www.youtube.com - the desktop version) regardless of my CPU Speed (tested with lv250-800,ulv250-800,ideal500-1000)?
