If you want to do this then you have to keep the phone cool. there is nothing wrong and no need for a petition.

Using the above quote I can see that the phone is plugged in while using bluetooth and cell radio + speakerphone?
Of course it is going to generate too much heat and stop charging.
that is what it is SUPPOSED to do.
I all I can say is, wow. It's thinking like this that is exactly why HTC will get away for designing a flawed product.

Care to elaborate? Is this because your TP doesn't have an issue, or does it have all these problems, and you don't feel that HTC would even respond?

As for cell phones not being designed to be used while charging, that's news to me and the phones I've been using for at least 6 years. Some have had some heat others almost none, but none were even close to this.
Ditto, and ditto. Mine overheated with, or without BT. I also experiencing it get so hot that I could not comfortably hold it. I would say that it was hotter than my car heater blows. Also, I've had about 6 phones in the last 10 years, some normal, some PPC, and none of them have had this problem. Most never really get above luke-warm during heavy use.
