App is forced to exit when Glass overheats

[GoogleCodeExporter]

[XE12]

When the device overheats (e.g. when I use the camera/display a lot), the 
system forces my app to exit. This is unacceptable for the fully immersive 
apps. It would be better if Glass device management layer managed the power 
consumption bette (e.g. not start the app if resources are already under heavy 
use)

Hello,

While this is unfortunate, it is actually working as intended and part of 
Android's process management:

Best,

Would it be possible to register a callback that notifies me that device is 
heating up? I can then use this callback to shutdown some of the services 
gracefully

You should be able to get the information that your app is being forced killed 
with the Activity#onDestroy() callback:

I'd have to check if it is me closing it. That's very cumbersome. Is there
a way to get the reason/source of closing?
