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

Hi,
I got my S4 around 2 weeks ago, everything works fine, but it just heated up abit too quickly & sometimes you couldn't even touch the phone, so i asked Samsung about this problem, they replaced my phone but it kept and happening. So i decided to do some research, i didn't really find anything on the internet, im not a hardcore developer but i know my way around things
After doing some testing to see why it heats up & where, i figured out it was the RAM & CPU. I have around 300 apps installed, that's included system apps too, so 300-130= 170 user apps. So i flashed the latest ROM i could find because i thought it might have been a bug or something, it got abit better but still got really hot .So i decided to root & delete all the bloatware & apps i didn't need, after i did this i found a script on the forums to do this automatically, its not hard to find. It wouldn't heat up as quickly but would still get really hot. So then i decided to go to the extreme & disable all the fancy features the S4 has like Smart View, Air View etc. You know what, my phone hardly heats up really hot!
I also put it into power saving mode, it hardly has no affect on perfomance but my battery can last a day but still be on 40%.
So yes, if your S4 is over heating you have to disable all the features you bought the phone for, c'mon Samsung

OT; that's some awesome Math skills you got there, lol.
No over-heating here.
Only playing Ingress...
anyone here specially any Exynos version user plays dead trigger alot like 40-45 minutes continuously? How's the heating?
So far my 9500 isn't overheating. My nexus 4 would hit 55-60'C on the cpu. My S4 didn't go over 50 yet.
Sent from my GT-I9500 using xda premium
I think it only effects around 15% of S4 owners, it effects both I9505 & I9500
& lol, changed it to 170 haha
i used I9500 Octa version and no overheating at all :good:
Here's what NotebookCheck DE found. If your i9505 is performing differently I'd guess something's amiss.
Temperature
All this raw power squeezed inside the Galaxy S4 has to produce a lot of waste heat. Luckily, Samsung's engineers have managed to keep the Galaxy S4 cooler than the Galaxy S III. Despite all performance improvements, we never measured more than 42.5 degrees Celsius (108.5 degrees Fahrenheit), a value only achieved after hours of stress tests under full load. This maximum temperature, which occurs next to the ear speaker on the front, is actually 4 degrees less than what we measured for the Galaxy S III. It is only while idle that the increased excess heat becomes noticeable: In this case, the entire surface of the Samsung Galaxy S4 is a few degrees warmer than that of its predecessor.
Heat generation is still very much acceptable, even though the HTC One feels cooler to the touch thanks to its metal case. The hottest device was the Nokia Lumia 920 with up to more than 50 degrees (122 degrees Fahrenheit) under full load, much more than what the Galaxy S4 reaches. Fortunately, the small power adapter remains rather cool as well while charging the phone.http://www.notebookcheck.net/Review-Samsung-Galaxy-S4-GT-I9505-Smartphone.92829.0.html

Hey guys,
i noticed my phone was getting a little hot while i had the navagtion app going.
im using the S4 flip cover and right under the back camera, where it says Samsung - I felt the phone getting hot.
Anyone experience this?
Me too
It's always hot.
I mean it gets hot often.
Of course it gets hot because the CPU is right there.

According to the manual you shouldn't be using the phone at all when charging
Loool really? Its always under charge when i play or the battery drops in 2 hours i disconnect sometime when it become too hot

Using while charging is fine unless it is overheating.
The reason it's recommended not to use the phone while charging is because it reaches high temperatures much faster and so is more likely to overheat causing hardware problems
I personally don't game while charging since this phone (especially i9505) gets really hot really fast

yes i know that heating its very rapid while under charge..expecially now that its so hot during day and cant dissipate...in may when i bought s4 had less problem
i think i must think to buy an extended battery to play more than 2 hours hehehe are they already on stores?
Almost every good phone gets hot now and then. My rooted S4 barely gets hot. I mean i flashed a great rom (omega rom) and flashed an amazing kernel (perseus) and played a bit with cpu voltages and i undervolted my cpu and it barely gets hot , and when it does , it does not get very hot .

i tryed to underclock processors but,maybe i just made a mistake, i saw the battery drop much faster...i setted max speed at 1.2 last time but never tried again
OMG, OMG, OMG, finally!!!!:victory:
I thought I was going crazy, but YES, the phone gets unusualy hot just below the camera.
I noticed this right after performing the Apps2SD update, and since then have been freaking out!
I am afraid that constant heating and cooling of this kind can damage the sensitive parts inside,
so I have been limiting my use of the phone in the last few days.
People, this is not normal. Somebody needs to contact Samsung.
There must be a software patch for this...?!
Oh yesss!! Let's make another thread about overheating -___- It's already known that this happens, so you better get used to it.
Me Gusta!
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.

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.

Hello everyone! I was wondering if more of you have experienced that the S5 plus can get quite hot while doing heavy things like gaming? Mine gets between 60-70 degrees celcius within 10-15 minutes. (Which makes the GPU clock go back to 240MHZ and the CPU to ~1200MHZ). The back and screen of the phone both get quite hot too. Not so hot that you can't keep going but just warm. Never had a over-heating message in the 1,5 years that I got the phone. Anyone got the same experience? (The Environment temprature is 25 degrees celcius btw and I don't have a case.)

That's what happen when there's really no system to cool down both GPUs and CPUs on a computer, even more so a very little one like a phone.

Are you using stock ROMs or something? Never had this behavior on CM ROMs on my niece's G900F. BTW just saying if you want to disable the throttling, use a Xposed mod named DVFS disabler or just switch to CM ROMs instead since DVFS only persists on Samsung ROMs
