Hi all,
My phone started overheating on the most basic of tasks, when I browse the Web it burns through 1% of battery every minute and the top of the phone (both back and the screen) gets unbearably hot. I tied different browsers and it does it with all of them.
Any advice on how to fix this?
Thank you.

I haven't checked the temperature per se but both the screen and the back around the camera get hot to the point where you can hardly touch them. Something is triggering the CPU to run like crazy when browsing.
Are you using Lollipop? I think thats why. My phone gets hot with lowest brightness and only widi enabled after 2 minutes of browsing reddit. Its very hot...

Yea that is weird. I want to go back on KitKat cause my telephone is very hot. :/
How much battery does KitKat normally use when people browse the web on wifi for an hour? Cuz for me it is literally 50-60% in an hour's time. Should I factory reset? Don't really feel like it but if it is my only option...

I checked the temperature, it hovers around 68-70 C when browsing the web. Is this normal? GSM Arena are reporting 11+ hours of browsing on this, I can get maybe 2-3 hours at best, no more than that.

This is def way too hot for browsing. In fact even when i push my phone as hard as possible i dont get much higher than 60C. Browsing and normal use will be around 50C. And yes SOT is around 5 to 7 hrs on a charge. I usually can go 1.5 to 2 days before charging. I would try factory reset. If it doesnt work see if you can get it replaced.

Had a similar problem with my old Optimus L9 (it was hot all the time, and discharged around 1%/min), Lg exchanged the motherboard without asking. Try to reflash the rom first. If it stays the same, then it's hw issue.

My phone usually gets hot when I'm using 3g but don't get more than 2 bars of signal, try switching to 2g if you know that you're in a place where you won't get a good connection. Or even better, when you're talking, you might as well just turn mobile data off

op.. its supposed to get hot. that's why it has a glass back, to cool off quicker. thats why you feel the heat. if you are worried about heat, dont buy a quad core device. buy a dumb phone and itll remain cool.
but that is not a problem with s4 or note 2 ??
so that doesnt justify

its not a problem with the n4 either. the problem is all in your head. again, it has a glass back to transfer the heat out of the phone quicker. because its glass, you will feel it more. s4 and the note 2 have plastic backs, so you feel it less.

besides op, what temperature is it reaching that you are complaining about, how it feels isnt an accurate temperature reading.
Guys stop embarrassing me
Actually I'm not comparing about heat on the back that's tolerable but its get way too got near the earpiece so that's why I'm complaining
I notice it a lot when I get a call in between my 3G usage

way too hot is what temperature(cpu temp)? im not trying to embarrass you, im trying to let you know that its normal, but you refuse to accept it. so, give more detail, what temp is your phone reaching? hot isnt an answer, hot and feel are relative terms.
The s4 does get hot too, I just had it.
But on the bright side, the nexus 4 is cozy in the winter

there are a few out there, i use the trinity kernel toolbox app. just search cpu temp in the play store. for battery, 60C is the safety temp. for cpu, 95C or 100C is the safety temp. the cpu os near the top of the phone, thats why it feels hot near the earpiece. its normal for the phones cpu temp to shoot up while the cpu is being used. when the screen goes off, itll cool down quickly.
im using trinity kernel now and have installed the toolbox and it shoe 1026 hz clock ??
why is it undervolted ?

Thats not undervolted, and I suggest you dont touch voltages atm and if you do make sure "set on boot" isnt checked.
That speed is just set lower, not sure if that kernel does that for you but you can set that higher if you wish.
all right ....running trinity and its not that hot now
For some odd reason, the phone gets very hot while I am on a call. It doesn't happen all the time though. Calls are quite short (no more than 10 min).
Can anybody shed some light as to how to fix this glitch?
Cheers!
Try a different kernel and set the threshold really low. Recommend Franco. Also what's your exact temp?

yes. depending on the background temperature too, and youre keeping it insulated in your hand.. if it was the middle of winter in new york city, and you were outside talking on the phone, it wouldnt ever reach that temp. but when its warmer, it can get there fast.

That's extremely cool and normal, no worries. But I have hit CPU shutdown limit (90° C) because it was to hot. Here's a screenshot I took before it shutdown.
Edit: I was gaming while charging on 3g and this was in Illinois like a month ago so weather wasn't hot. Lol I didn't know after my fingers started burning I needed to cool this phone down

gaming while charging can do it. so can streaming a flash movie while charging. plus your battery will get very hot.
Mine was just a phone call hence why I thought it was a bit too much for 5 min. I don't usually give the phone heavy use and it normally remains pretty cool. I might just still change the kernel
Hey Guys I'm just wondering is anyone else has encounter this issue, I play Call of Duty Zombies and Batman The Dark Night Rises and after maybe an hour or so My tablet really gets hot.. is this normal? I'm currently using PA with Trinity Kernel. but I had the same issue with other AOSP Roms...Carbon, and CM.... any info is appreciated!!

It is normal. My tablet gets hot only by browsing online.. All nexus 10 are getting easily warm. The problem is if the tablet reboots often for that reason. So, don't worry it is normal.

My tablet gets hot enough when browsing the internet.. I think that if i try a game, the tablet may explode .. So i think it is normal. But to be sure check the temperatures..

Try to stay in one of the other million threads on heat issues: it's not "overheating" unless the device goes beyond operating parameters and shuts down/reboots anyway. "Warm" is pretty subjective, but the hard limits that the CPU has built in definitely aren't.
My tablet gets hot while playing games or browsing but never a reboot so I think it's normal.
It gets hot mainly at the top-left for me, which I'm assuming where the SoC is located. Not too bad if you're holding it normally.

Thank you any advice will be helpful.

How hot is it getting? This phone has the Snapdragon 810 chip which is very well known for becoming pretty warm.
Mine was also very hot the first day I had it. But after I got all the updates, set it up with my apps and charged it again(from 0%) it's great!

Give it a couple days and a few charge cycles. once the phone and kernel settle is when you'll know how the phone it truly running. Also, letting a battery die IS BAD for the battery NOT helpful. It's NEVER good to let a battery reach zero, regardless if its the first charge or not. That was the way you did it with an old Ni-Cad batteries to create a memory. These batteries are Lithium-Ion, they never create a memory. It's better to charge it around 15-20% and overall best to charge at around 50% fir longer battery life (more charge cycles).

Yeah it will get warm playing games and a bit of Yahoo video streaming of will get warm. Mine never seems to get more then 94°f or so
Like others have said, it's the chip plus the fact the entire thing is made of metal.
Just wanted to point out, without evidence yet, that battery life on Nougat (Concept update 38.3.A.0.107) is amazing. I'm talking about days here.
¿Anyone else experiencing this?
As for the evidence, I will charge my phone to 100% today and upload a battery life screencap as soon as I can.
What? I need that firmware! My battery goes from 80 to 70 in 5 minutes On screen time!!!
Hi,
Just a quick update with a screenshot. Just 2h short of a day with 14% to go, the mostly horizontal part of the graph happened when I was asleep.
SOT for that is 3h13m
