Yep.� So I unplugged a cell phone booster I put in my office last week.
Have not installed it correctly, antenna in a window and the other antenna
on my desk.
Solid metal building.� I have a big one for the whole building but
coverage is poor in my office.
Phone seems to be cooling a little bit now.� I am thinking perhaps I
have a weird feedback loop or something happening with the phone and the
booster.

Another question/puzzle for the borg.� Just got a call on an iphone.
The phone got hotter than hell.� So much so I thought I had a thermal

So, it was not thermal runaway.� Had to be CPU going like crazy.
Just canceled the airplane mode and it is getting hot again... Dang.
Hate to have to get a new phone.
