How To Get Android Cpu Temperature Programmatically

Tried this but got 0.0 and on physical device nothing found.. Any way to get cpu temperature in android SensorManager mySensorManager = (SensorManager) getSystemService(SENSOR_SER

Solution 1:

publicstaticfloatcpuTemperature()
{
    Process process;
    try {
        process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cat sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp");
        process.waitFor();
        BufferedReaderreader=newBufferedReader(newInputStreamReader(process.getInputStream()));
        Stringline= reader.readLine();
        if(line!=null) {
            floattemp= Float.parseFloat(line);
            return temp / 1000.0f;
        }else{
            return51.0f;
        }
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        return0.0f;
    }
}

Solution 2:

You can find all the thermal values(temp and type) from this code (not only CPU temperature). And also remember that sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp not always point towards CPU temperature (in my case it was pointing towards battery temperature). Always use this code in background thread. I have tested it on real device as well as emulator and it was working fine.

publicvoidthermal() {
        String temp, type;
        for (int i = 0; i < 29; i++) {
            temp = thermalTemp(i);
            if (!temp.contains("0.0")) {
                type = thermalType(i);
                if (type != null) {
                   System.out.println("ThermalValues "+type+" : "+temp+"\n"); 
                }
            }
        }
    }

    publicStringthermalTemp(int i) {
        Process process;
        BufferedReader reader;
        String line;
        String t = null;
        float temp = 0;
        try {
            process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cat sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone" + i + "/temp");
            process.waitFor();
            reader = newBufferedReader(newInputStreamReader(process.getInputStream()));
            line = reader.readLine();
            if (line != null) {
                temp = Float.parseFloat(line);
            }
            reader.close();
            process.destroy();
            if (!((int) temp == 0)) {
                if ((int) temp > 10000) {
                    temp = temp / 1000;
                } elseif ((int) temp > 1000) {
                    temp = temp / 100;
                } elseif ((int) temp > 100) {
                    temp = temp / 10;
                }
            } else
                t = "0.0";
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return t;
    }

    publicStringthermalType(int i) {
        Process process;
        BufferedReader reader;
        String line, type = null;
        try {
            process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cat sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone" + i + "/type");
            process.waitFor();
            reader = newBufferedReader(newInputStreamReader(process.getInputStream()));
            line = reader.readLine();
            if (line != null) {
                type = line;
            }
            reader.close();
            process.destroy();
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        returntype;
    }

Sample Output in Logcat (Image below is Real device output... On emulator it only showed the type battery and its temperature.) :

Solution 3:

There is a system service for this kind of stuff HardwarePropertiesManager that contain a method getDeviceTemperatures(int type, int source) which is available from Nougat

if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.N) {
    HardwarePropertiesManager hardwarePropertiesManager= (HardwarePropertiesManager) getSystemService(Context.HARDWARE_PROPERTIES_SERVICE);
     float[] temp = hardwarePropertiesManager.getDeviceTemperatures(HardwarePropertiesManager.DEVICE_TEMPERATURE_CPU, HardwarePropertiesManager.TEMPERATURE_CURRENT);
}
