*edit*

its not like i want to charge by usb but i use it to transfer files, but im just going to start transfering by BT
i was just wondering out loud about why the phones would run hot. no slams at anyone, i have flashed all the cooks roms, and have yet to perceive any overclocking effects, like big heat, or freaky behaviour.

my thinking was that maybe ya'll were running a bunch of programs all at once, and that was stressing the processor, and making big heat.

i did, however, read today if you want to charge your phone via usb, it should be either turned off, or set to mass storage mode under connections (like you do when you flash). dunno if it's true, but may be worth testing to see.

i will check around and see if there is a program that would show processor load, like process explorer i use on my desktop.
