Dear All:
I am getting my SM-G900H heated up very frequently. Earlier I used Exynos Note 3 but that one never heated like this one S5- SM-G900H.
Anyone having this problem especially in S5-Exynos version (SM-G900H) ? I am planning to meet official service center but before doing that I am trying get some idea from the other users.
Looking forward your opinion.

I think it is completely normal.
It is already a very hot summer. (I guess "H" means you are in Asia )
The phone is complete water resistant and there is no way to pass the air inside it.
Don't keep your phones flash ON during video shooting.
Don't play heavy games like Asphalt 8 for a long time.
Don't browse for a long time on 3G or don't download big files on 3G.
Just do these things until summer ends.

Yes I am from Asia-Bangladesh. Here now temperature is very high. But me most of the time stay in air conditioned room/office thus phone can't identify summer hotness !!! This is something annoying. I usually keep phone in my front pocket. But leg seems burns. What about your one ?

My phone won't get hot unless I play heavy games, Download big files via 3G or keep my LED Flash ON for 15 minutes.
once time get heat my phone sm-g900H
and after restart,ever again heat the phone..only when i play games a lot of time goes 38 Celsius..
I live in Greece
i think that the specific model (sm-g900H) is the most optimized for all device
I think, it's a defect. Or should I say, it's normal. Every time I play heavy games, yes, my battery's getting so hot. Unless, we're talking about very very hot and making your battery empty, yes, you need to consult a technician.
i have the same problem, I think it's normal.
Try lowering your Max CPU speed to 1728mhz. This will reduce overheating drastically. You need to be rooted though.

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

It is completely normal that your phone gets hot around the camera since you are playing a game...What is the temperature you get while playing?
Would also like to know how hot your unit gets
when playing games. This is the unit that i am planning to get

Sorry for the late reply,
I installed a cpu temperature app, and it shows me that my cpu temperature is 36-38 degrees while playing games, also I noticed that after hearing up some of the games start to lag up a little. Any recommendations?

Well i bought this unit after along study of whether to get the exynos version or the snapdragon version, in my opinion I found the exynos to be better because many users suggested that this version does not heat up and works better, but now as I'm using it personally I think it heats up alot, the temperature I get is around 36-38 degrees.

uhhm. i actually thought its the SD version that heats up? well that is according to some searching i've done.
Maybe that is normal when playing games with exynos.

Don't worry, 36-38 degrees are completely fine...

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
My note 4 with ****y snapdragon heat like fire
I wanna replace it because of the overheating I can't something even hold it I put is always in freezer to cold it
With cpu temp app it gave me 60c even without games the :crying:best value was 40c but when I put it in freezer it down to 30c
And the weard thing that at the same time the cpu temperature app gave me 60c the cpu cooler app gave me 34c
Weard which is right? ??
This phone is making me crazy

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.

Look 2 replied higher, already wrote something aboht that
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 ?

Hi everyone,
I'm planning on buying a new phone my budget is not limited but OnePlus 2 checks all the boxes I need in a smart phone? I'm pretty excited to get this phone however when I went online on GSMArena a lot of people were reporting overheating issues and freezing of the phone. Can anyone tell me if the phone overheats on latest stock OTA as of 14th Feb because I really want to buy this phone in the coming 2 or 3 days.
Thanks.
No. With stock thermal file you could have poor performance on HQ games after a while. If you changed it you can avoid the a57 cores to turn off or under clock a lot. I play real racing 3 30m+ without underclocking (for temp reasons) 100mhz. With stock freqs for more than 30m+ ( I don't continue playing so I don't know how many it will take to underclock). I use thermal extreme file with 3°+. Of course it gets hot. But no problem for me, all phones gets hot while gaming or under heavy tasks, I can live with that. My nexus 5 gets hotter and quicker. Also I played vainglory for almost 2 hours and no undercloking either.

You should be fine I've had this phone for about two months and id say at best it gets warm when gaming the only time its ever got hot was when i was in a very hot room with the sun light hitting the phone but i was playing a driving game for 1 hour plus at this point so fair enough that it did get hot.
But id say 100% of the time when im not gaming it never gets hot im on stock 2.2.0
For just going on facebook and normal apps it never gets warm even most games it only gets sightly warm at best unless your really hamming it for a long time it will never get hot. you'll be fine for £289 you really can't go wrong i love this phone once MM is out and full dev support it out going to get even better!
Hi guys,
I have purchased Note 4 recently and it seems to be heating in minimal tasks also like surfing the internet. i have flashed KITKAT, LOLLIPOP(default) and MARSHMALLOW but in all these firmwares the problem seemed to be consistent. Earlier i used snapdragon phone which was clocked at 2.3 GHZ and used to heat @ heavy games like No Limits, with recording on but this one is heating in angry birds itself. Though no lags are observed. I have not tried the Marshmallow version latest yet but some body told that latest update fixed heating issue. The root problem i see is its Processor clocked @ 2.7 GHZ, i mean this much we see in PC. I dont understand why they have gone so far. Now Samsung kernel must be clocked such way that on demand it bumps the frequency to max. This max i want to limit to 2 GHZ but without knocking down KNOX warranty. If some one has latest updated Marshmallow release and can confirm that it is indeed not heating please comment or tell me the solution to this problem, i really like this phone but hate when it heats. I am ok with slight lagging due to underclocking. i am willing to flash kernels with lower max frequency via ODIN. No custom recovery intended. Also i dont want to loose on warranty.
Thanks and Regards,
Really looking forward to solution

I have a Verizon Note 4. I did have heat issues with Lollipop. Since I installed Marshmallow and did a factory reset, it only gets warm with heavy use. Some app updates have had my Note 4 running warm, but a reset of the phone seems to fix it.

Seems like custom rom is the only option bro
The Snapdragon 805 SOC does have a bad habit of getting really hot when running heavy tasks.
Not only was my phone Hot for every second I used it but... Look at this amazing SOT.
I finally figured out how to keep Google play services from draining the battery: burn through your entire battery before it even has time to start up.
Hello, I just bought an S8 as an upgrade from my beloved S6E+. when I firt turned it on the phone was on 55% I started using smart switch to transfer stuff from my old cellphone over WIFI (over 10gb of stuff) while the phone was updating from the playstore and downloading a software update and updating galaxy apps (too many stuff) I felt the phone getting really warm then it became HOT not uncomfortably but very very noticeable.,I downloaded an app to see the temp. and it reported 59 C for the CPU and 42 for the Battery. then it jumped to 69C for the CPU and 47 for the processor. I waited till everything finished, updated the sofware and reststed. it idled at 42 - 45 C.
I live in a hot country and the outside temprature was 38 C. but my S6E+ never reached such temperatures, and I don't want to bring any drama but the whole Note7 thing is making me paranoid about using the phone while its hot like that. so is this normal??
1. The fact that you're living in a hot country matters. Its a factor. Coz apparently ambient temperatures affects the feel of materials such as glass or Aluminium. So take note of that.
2. You've said it yourself,you made the phone go through a hell doing stuff all at once. Let it settle. Give it days,maybe weeks.
3. If after all that you're still experiencing the overheating,then it could be;
a)Just a software hitch which could be fixed by a simple factory reset or software update.
b) If someone else report the same issue,then it could be a common issue with the phone
c) If no one reports similar issue and yours persist,then you probably have a defective unit,and you should consider replacing it.
