I have noticed that my games have been Slightly choppier and that it has SLIGHTY more lag , and that after I loosened the left side screws, it heats up anymore. Does anyone know the average heat, and an app to track it. Ad ideas? Thanks

Anyone? Thanks

You have installed slightly more apps. Things running in background will make it choppier.
Even my cellphone gets hot... Stored charge in battery converts to heat as you use it.
Should never get so hot it is uncomfortable to hold. Chaos and Order gets mine warm.
Okay. Thanks

Other stupid question. Has anyone else noticed that it "seems" like the touch screen was more responsive on the old kernel. I don't know if it is just me or not. Gun Bros. Seemed like the controls worked better on the old kernel. Other games felt this way too. Am I just nuts?

Did you clean your screen recently?
I haven't noticed any difference, but I'm only up to 7.1 from 7.0.2.
I play with gun bros daily (7.1rc1 n160) and find the screen to be very responsive. I would also suggest cleaning the screen. Capicitive screens are very touchy about cleanliness.

Maybe it is time to get another screen protector, thanks for the replies....

After using the new SGTab 2 7" I have experiencing the touchscreen is unresponsive in some occasions.
For example closing the tabs in the brrowser on the X mark is very hard, both in the stock browser and Chrome.
When I try to clear my mssage in the bottom right corner, it also doesn't recognize my touch on various occasions.
It seems to me that along the edges of the screen, the touches are harder to recognize. Have any of you recognized this problem aswell?
After reading a review on Techradar.com, this passage stood out for me:
''Disappointingly, we found the touchscreen experience to be a little sub-par. The sensitivity of the display was lower than we expected, and we found it hard to register presses on small parts of the browser, such as links, and the close tab button.''

I encountered the same fault/defect on my Tab2 10.1
especially on small objects,
but it seems not to be constant.
meaning it generally works, but sometime i have to press multiple times to activate the selected button or object.
I found that fingerprints really lower the sensitivity of the screen. If you wipe off the screen after prolonged use, the touch experience will be much better. I verified this using a touch recognition program.

Yeah I wipe and I wipe haha..on all my devices. But it seems worse on this device, compared to all others even though I clean very often.
Cheers for your suggestion though

thats true
some times happens to me too in youte app, i notice it only there still.
Same thing here, it gets incredibly frustrating for me. It's very noticeable trying to close a tab.

Is it a hardware or software issue?

Got mine today. And ive been fine, then again i have a crappy screen protector lol.
After rooting and flash a custom rom on p5100, everything is OK. Become responsive. So I believe Samsung touchwiz on ics might be the cause of the problem.
Yeah me too not satisfied with the samsung touch wiz...but I don't think I am having problem with touch screen...though it is not as smooth as with iPhone 4...

Do you have a screen protector on? Mine was crappy with it on, so i removed it.
Sent from my GT-P3113 using Tapatalk 2
Had this problem when I was on Stock. Not dead touch points but it was more like an inability to sense my touch due to lag due to touchwiz. Changing to nova launcher helped... And then.... Tried CM9 rom and all is well. Not sure if you wanna take that route but for me... It worked. I am a happy camper!

Is there a way to calibrate the screen on the T2 10.1?
After 10 minutes of reckless racing 2, the screen gets unresponsive, i think it might be something to do with the battery or cpu getting hot, I am using the stock modified rom from metallice
Guyz is there any exhaust hole for heat emission in n4.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
I think the speakers and/or the camera and flash serves as the exhaust.
the glass back is meant to transfer heat out(thats why it gets warm with use, thats why its glass).
I notice that compared to other devices I've had the N4 gets very hot..

it actually doesnt get as hot as most devices. but you can feel the heat more, because of the glass back. if it was plastic/metal, you wouldnt feel as much heat. it just means that the glass back is doing its job right. my galaxy nexus and nexus 7 get much warmer, but it isnt felt as much because the backs are plastic.

Of all phones in household between original nexus s, sensation, hd2, nexus 1, one x+ and n4, nothing comes close to beloved n4 . Few times I'd to end call as its fricking hot in ears and hand. Good thing at least keeping us warm in UK's summer cold

Yeah, we also need to get it smogged every two years.
It's right next to the muffler and the catalytic converter.

Winter is coming. We should add anti freeze to the lube oil
Far as everyone mentioning the glass back, I thought glass was an insulator, not a conductor (something like aluminum or such would dispel heat, glass wouldn't necessarily, as it's an insulator).

Glass is a terrible thermal insulator. It is however a great electrical insulator! Ha

You mean aside from your USB port, headphone jack, edges around power and volume button, around the LED light, and speaker hole? Honestly I think people are making a mountain of a mole hill out of this, has anyone actually reported a Nexus 4 exploding in their pockets? (from overheating that is).
In any case if you're curious about the innards, check out this tear down of a Nexus 4.

I actually used to have a sensation and it didn't get nearly as hot as this phone does. Neither did my G1, My Touch, Vibrant, S2, or my wife's note 2...
Not a big deal but I could use the N4 as a heat source to keep warm in the cold... If it wasn't 100 degrees out that is

On my Gnex, you can feel the heat on the chrome part of the camera, which gets hot to the point that it feels like you'd get a little burn

No. LG suggests you drill several holes to prevent overheating as it is a VERY big issue for nexus owners. I attached a CPU fan to mine and it rarely hits 200°F anymore!

Well, I have a 3 month old nexus 4 and this week I realized this small marks in 4 of the corners of the phone.... I have been using the bumper from day zero and only had two drops from less than 20 cm high... Always with the bumper.... Is it a plastic soldering point? Is this normal? Is it going to break and explode?
Am I the only one having this marks?
I'm afraid of my phone falling apart....

I was really freaking out... I know the phone is fragile because of the crystal and all... But this is way too much... I really take good care of it... But it's normal to have little drops when you are handling the device 80% of the time you're awake...
Thanks for saying it's something normal, it kind of calms me a bit...

Hello my s4 is 3 weeks old. I find that the display becomes warm and the back around the camera also becomes warm. The earpiece is also warm . Is this an issue?

No, this is normal. You could try flashing a custom kernel and underclock and undervolt to lower the temperature.
But dont you think underclocking will make my phone slow?
Which is the best custom os for s4 out there which fast and without bugs?
Sent from my GT-I9500 using xda app-developers app
Warm phone is perfectly normal especially under heavy load. This is passively cooled powerful computer, it has to produce heat and dissipate it somehow. It can even became very hot when playing high demanding games.
If you prefer reliable and stable device and don't like constant need for full wipes take this good advice and DO NOT underclock/undervolt, DO NOT mess with custom roms. Most stable and free of bugs is stock.
Undervolting will surely affect stability especially when you don't know what you are doing.
You can enable power save mode. This is the intended way to reduce heat and save battery.
