Thermal Stressing the Phone

Nothing new, well known fact: hotspot tethering generates heat and drains the battery.

If you're overclocked, tether, and use GPS it can get even hotter. Tried to kill my old smartphone while on Sprint and it melted the back cover but phone still worked. BTW what app are you using to measure temp?

Sounds like the default txpower settings on CM7 might be too high. They can be adjusted, but it's not something the average user should mess with.
