Screen heating problem

I was skyping my gf and I realised the screen starts to heat up.. its really warm or bit hot! Its at the upper section of the screen.. say down 20% from the samsung logo. Anyone have this problem? Or other screen heating up problems??

The white model. U hv this problem?

why note 1 heat up quite often after i use it for gaming or mobile internet. I thought it was quite normal

It is not the screen but the processor, exynos chips run super hot, same problem with S2 or note that could be solved undervolting it.

But it won't take any damage from it, right? It should be designed to work under maximum load and therefore heat for quite some time, I hope.
Are there any cases of s2 or s3 dying from overheating due to heavy cpu load like gaming?

It's perfectly normal , and nothing to be worried about. I would worry if it weren't getting hot xD

are u using 3g or wifi??

Actually the Exynos chip this generation shouldn't get as hot as previous generation. Since it made from the 32nm, for example, Samsung Galaxy S3 only gets to warm but not hot like the S2.
You should what is running in your background, I doubt Skype alone can ramp up all cores to make the heat your stating.

I did a 10minute skype call and yes it got warm but defenately not hot.
I confirm the area is the same as the OP says.
I did the call on 3g.
Will look more in to it today

Its much warmer than my S3. Not sure if its normal, even without skype and just browsing with 3g its warm on the top part

Edit delete please

I finally managed to get an hour+ gaming session. The processor gets noticeably warmer but I wouldn’t even describe it as “hot.” I can only compare it to the S2 which does get hot… very hot, very fast. I was surprised by how (relatively) cool the N2 remained. If it wasn’t for this thread, I wouldn’t even have remembered to touch the screen on top of the processor.
BTW, I’m not much of a gamer. This attempt was intended more to drive the battery down, so I could finish a full cycle and leave the phone charging overnight. Considering how long a full charge seems to last, this model looks like it doesn’t waste a lot of energy. That may explain why it doesn’t get as warm as some others.

After playing Shadowgun (galaxy s3 version that you can get for free from samsung apps) for about 20 min the phone got a little hot on the back at the top part. Nothing mayor.
Processors get hots when used. If I download a lot of stuff from Play store and at the same time play a high graphical game it will be kinda hot though.

Well this phones including my current one x have been designed to withstand enormous amount of heat..
When I game on hox it gets very hot..and according to people upto 100 degree celcuis it doesn't have any harm so getting warm is out of the question..
And quad cores running simultaneously generates loooot of heat..Bcoz there isn't a CPU fan in here..
So imo there is nothing to get worried

Good idea, I am having this issue, I had it with my S3, on the bottom of the phone, and my S4 is having it at the top of the phone.
I am going to carry on using the phone when it heats up too much, because it shouldn't damage the phone just for you to use it. If it does break, then I will send it back saying sort it out. I aint having Samsung sell a dodgy phone to me or anyone because they are just trying to keep in front of the competition. It's stupid.
Hopefully they will have common sense in the future. I have had the S1, S2 and S3 and S4, and been happy with all so far, but a bit annoyed about the heat issue on the S4 more than the one on the S3 because they have had enough people saying about it previously.

I had the S, S2, S3 and never had heat issues like the S4, only after an 1hr of GPS or gaming but not as much - I can cook an egg on my S4 just while surfing the web, what a nice feature!
When i dont touch for a while it is at 33C, but as soon as I read emails or light web browsing it reaches 44C, if then on youtube 48-55C.
when it get hot the battery % drops significantly and then when it cools down it recharge itself!

I was somewhere on S4 forum writed, this heating come most if device is on 4G (LTE) network. Try put on 3G (HSPA) or 2G (GSM) and you will see (and feel) device is much colder...

No difference at all, even tried 2G

There are times my s4 gets real hot. Can't even touch the screen! The worst it got was when I did an antutu stability test. If I remember it said like 45*c.

Normally heat isn't a problem at all.
But sitting in a bus in direct sunlight with max brightness made it totally hot!
I was only browsing, so it was due to the screen.
When I had to make a phone call I had to keep phone a bit away from my ear.
It took 10-15 minutes to cool down again.
I think every single S4 WILL get really hot under same conditions.
Don't know how if this would be same for other brands like HTC One or iPhone

Yesterday I used GPS for 15 mins on power save mode and still got at 48C, battery dropped significantly.
I haven't see many votes yet which makes me think that it is not a common problem...

Standby - <27C° Browsing, video and other simple tasks - <45C° Games - <60C° So,overheating as well. Unfortunately.

No issues at all. I have browsed for over an hour with no warm up. It warms a little when playing games or watching videos but no more than other phones ihave had and it doesn't justify the word 'overheat'.

Thanks @ Cale77
Ideal temp 27.5 (C)
saving mode activated and nothing running in the back ground. Is it good or bad?

When mine got hot it would be from simple tasks like browsing the net for 10 minutes. At its peak, you could not touch your face with it to make a call. (Think its update fixed it though, must have been software problem for me).

No issues so far.
Do you run with auto-brightness? What conditions do you experience this in?
Hot ambient temperature, sunlight?

Auto brightness is on and working and still when i do few things on the phone the heat start to raise in an obvious way at the back of the phone around the camera area, then if i do make a phone call seriously the heat is very annoying to a degree that makes you just want to finish the call cause its very hot.

Hmm.
I guess there's a wide spread then. From perfectly fine to absurdly bad and maybe even defective. :\

S4 overheats a lot from screen on top

S4 over heats a lot from screen on top..
It starts heating within 1 min of use..
No heavy work.
Its too much hot to put to ear to attend call..
Service centre replaced motherboard.
But still am facing heating problem.

I can't see your phone so I don't know what is exactly going on, but if you type into Google any smartphone name and word "overheating" you will see dozens of threads and articles. People are just overreacting, smartphones are getting warm it's just their nature, plenty of processing power etc. If yours is getting too hot maybe it's some app working in background.

My phone is also overheating very quickly now. It started after i rooted the phone and installed some root apps like greenify and clean master. I have now disabled those apps to see if it helps.
Anyhow, it's not a big deal. It won't burn up so what is all the fuss about?

I have the same thing, the same spot as you mention. On samsung stock rom its really worse!, but on cm its decent. however, my pone always turns off when testing antutu at stock max cpu speed...
I can only go to 1674mhz. any higher and it will instant shutdown on antutu

hi, i'm from singapore
and im using the i9505 variant of the S4 and i'm having the same issue about the heat on the top half of the phone
it heats up so bad i cant touch the top half of the phone at all
Is this caused by the 4.2.2 update like what everyone says?

My view/experience with i9505 on (over)heating. I direct this at Samsung ...
Dear Samsung,
Please can you move the WiFi Power Save Mode Toggle from the Service Menu and place it in the standard Settings Menus. Also make this setting persistent between boots.
On certain AP hardware and/or configurations, the Power Save Mode does no saving at all, in fact in my experience it just causes a huge mess. The culprit is spotty/erratic WiFi connectivity which causes all the background sync/update tasks to go in retry loop heaven (with wakelocks galore). These background tasks in retry loops hammer the processor continuously such that it start heating up (& draining more battery than normal).
So please implement this small change so that it can save many a lot of headaches.
Thanks.

Heating is a big deal for me. S4 is a lot more hotter then my former S3, and not because of the CPU. For me it's because of the modem. Root might be related also (I had my doubts on this) ... some apps keeping the 3G up more then needed, but I don't want to speculate more ...
PS: there are others "overheating" posts , a lot of them.

Same issue here (thread here), my brother has the same model and we tryed use same apps on both S4's, his S4 does not heat but mine does. so something wrong with my S4

i think the rom is causing all the overheating issue.
when i used stock, it would heat up that i can't touch it
now using phoenix rom 2.0 for 9500, and only get a slight warmth

My first smart phone was an Galaxy S2, and it got hot, i had two replacements they were the same, i then realized smart phones with powerful cpu/gpu`s just get hot when they work hard, i had had a few smartphones since the S2 from a few different manufactures and they all get hot, now i have an htc one, and it gets hot so it`s totally normal.
what i have realized with android is that you can get a faulty app or system process that really kills the cpu/gpu for no reason and they need to be shutdown/killed.
So i started using an app called watchdog, just change the settings to monitor system processes as well.

My phone was overheating as well, and I found out the culprit was media server. It got confused with some old thumbnails I had on my old SD card (from my galaxy S3), I had thousands of pictures there, so I guess it was constantly scanning it.
So delete all the thumbnails, (there's a folder .thumbnails in DCIM I believe) or even better yet, if you can, format your external SD card, and copy the files you need on it again. then mediaserver will work hard one more time and that's it.
Alternatively, you can download Rescan Media ROOT, and disable the media scanner, and enable it when you need it (but that's not desirable for me, I'm always updating my media, so I prefer it being automatic, depends on you usage)

The S4 does heat up quite often, what version you using? I would recommend to use KT kernel to underclock and undervolt so it doesn't heat up as much

50% longer battery life

In January there was an article saying a software optimization has increased battery life on the s4 by 50 %. http://www.phonearena.com/news/Luci...promises-up-to-50-longer-battery-life_id51164
With the s5 out , which is reaching great battery life while having 'only' 2800 Mah it seems that Samsung has implemented this software and having better battery life than many good tablets
http://www.phonearena.com/news/Gala...lagship-has-the-endurance-of-a-tablet_id55077
When will it come for the s4? Probably just a matter of time, but do you guys Really think this is realistic? A 50% increase seems astronomic to me. In the text above it says the playing time of angry birds almost got doubled

Something for something, you can DECREASE speed of your phone, decrease the screen brightness etc. Or, you can digg eBay for nokia 5510, if you care about the battery life more than for phone efficacy.

If you had even made the effort to read the article , you wouldn't be writing that. People like you will never make progress in anything because everything that requires thinking out of the box seems impossible to achieve if you start like that. The PowerXtend algorithms change the way how software and hardware interact and optimizes it. The battery life is already tremendously improved on the s5 which is a fact, so you don't have to start with talking about your friends cousins sister and so on.. This by the way doesn't require some extreme CPU throttling , and I honestly don't know why anyone should have a 100% CPU-usage while surfing on the Internet for example. That's what optimization is.

I fully agree with you. For internet browsing, the power is not needed by CPU, but by the WiFi/3G/LTE. And, most of battery capacity goes there in such case.
But, 100% CPU is needed to keep alive in the background you email, tweeter, facebook, google and samsung sync plus any other app you may have.
For example, using the NavXtend.The outcome is that my position jumps around when I'm turning or suddenly stopping/accelerating. This is caused by the redirection of part of GPS requests to loop which predicts my movement.
But, you are absolutely right, I did not read the article. Instead, I went to the manufacturer portal, where he clearly states that any savings may be "up to" something.
And, exactly as with NavXtend, I will TRY any solution instead of sending excited posts that someone wrote something somewhere.

[Q] Note 4 heating, hardware or software?

Hello everyone, I recently purchased a new note 4 St N910C. Just after a day of usage I felt that it is getting hot when I play games on it. I closed all the background apps even resetted it but still no luck. My phone is getting heated up near the camera area. My question is that is this a hardware issue or a software one, because if it is a hardware issue I should try and get it replaced, if a software one I should better wait for a lollipop update.
Any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated
Thanks

Galaxy Note 4 heating [camera]
I purchased Galaxy Note 4 [SM-N910G] a week back. It's on Android 4.4.4 (KitKat)
I am having a different problem for which I could not find any satisfying solution on the Internet. Whenever I open camera app, the phone starts heating up near camera & battery also drains very quickly [around 2% under 5 min.]
I know that the phone will heat up a little bit when playing high graphics games, but I don't think it should heat up too much when using camera app.
I have already factory reset [both soft & hard reset] the phone, but still it does not help. I contacted Samsung support, & they told me to 'Reset app preferences' from Application manger, but still the device heats up when using camera app.
I also cleared data of the camera app, but still the issue remains
The phone does not heat up at all on standby mode, but opening camera app raises it's temperature more than it should. Previously a Note 2 user, this problem was not there.
Anyone else experiencing the same issue on Note 4 ? Any ideas on this ?

The phone heats up only if you're recording 4k or 2k video.If you use camera generally & your device heats up.You must get your device checked

You can factory reset all day, it won't help. Thats not a problem, the camera just uses a lot of processor power and thus generates heat. You can't change that, you have to live with it

Sorry, but do you have any idea about CPU temperatures? 60 isn't bad. 40 isn't bad. 30 isn't bad. Even 70° and occasionally 79° would be acceptable. Don't put your phone into the freezer, ity not good to freeze the hardware.. Especially if you literally have no problem. The CPU is prone to temperature fluctuations and your values are fully normal in the world of CPUs. There is no best value, everything up to 70° is the normal temperature variation. Your phone doesn't have a problem, its perfectly fine.

Mine actually heats up while charging and using at same time. Clean master shows 70-75°C cpu temperature while using browser and stuff but 80+ while gaming, that's not normal right? I'm worried cuz I always used my old phones while charging and they never got this hot, I feel like it will melt someday :/ In what temperatures exynos operates?

I got my SM-N910F yesterday and installed LP 5.0.1 via OTA. Temperatures are 40+ when the phone isnt doing anything. While I did the Antutu Benchmark, it was around 50-52 degrees (Celsius). Feels much warmer than my previous Note 3 (which of course never had LP). And since i am not used to this temparature on my Note 3, i kinda worry about the temps right now. I read a lot that many have that problem since LP update. So whats normal and what would be too high for regular usage (not using Camera or playing Games) ? Is there an average i can go by and compare ?
And whats my alternatives now if I want lower temps , go back to 4.4.4 Stock Rom (currently have LP 5.0.1 Stock) or do I try a 5.x Custom ROM . Did the Custom ROMS fixed these heating problems or is that just something I have to live with ?
Thanks for any help.

My old G3 used to sit at 50 degrees idle!, 30 and 40 degrees is cool!!!!!!

Just do a Factory Reset (hard reset)
First backup everything & Google for detail instructions on hard reset.

Sure that makes all the difference ? I read a lot of posts from people saying that a factory reset didnt really solve their problems. Do you know for sure it will help ?
