My LG G3 is dead.. i live in a country where temperatures can reach over 110ºF/50ºC and it died in my pocket in a very hot day while I was driving..
since then, the minimal increase of temperature makes the phone crash and restart into a green screen kernel crash..
This is a warning to all G3 users.. keep your phones cold or change it while you can..
Do not let this happen to you.

well switched from Nexus 5,,,to be honest knk knk feature sold me...also camera and build design helped but i am pretty disappointed by the camera it lags like hell in low light...even my note 2 still shoots better picture in low light than g2...
model D802
anyway now my concern is heating...its always stays in 28-30 degree in normal use....i am using Gsam battery monitor...stock rom and kernel,,,
another thing i noticed when ever i browse for a while or plays video in utube like 5-10 mins the area of volume button in the back becomes warm,,,is it normal? not extreme level but i can feel the warm...dont know abt rest of the body as using back cover...
any friendly suggestion plz??
peace !!
the volume/power button area becoming warm is normal. playing videos or games and phone heating up is what most phones do. keep in mind these processors dont have fans blowing on them. is the 28-30 degrees in celsius? i know farenheit and normally i wouldnt want my phone to get past 100 degree's F. 30 degrees C is only 86 F.
I once saw a G2 lower it's brightness automatically due to overheating (and the fun thing is I didn't play any games or videos, just normal stuff).
I think the G2 has overheating problems.

Not all G2s have this problem. Ex. My first G2 was perfect. No overheating, looooong battery life, high benchmark scores, perfect phone. Got damaged when snow moisture got into the speaker grill and shorted out the top portion of my screen.
Got my replacement yesterday and noticed right away the screen had a yellow hue, the phone over heated like hell and had horrible battery life.
Nothing I tried would fix the issues. Back to the carrier it went. Hopefully the 3rd phone is as good as the first. Trust. ..if I gave you my first G2, you'd be singing praises in the long battery life thread. That phone wouldn't die no matter what I threw at it...the best part..it didn't overheat either...there are good G2's out there.
Question about overheating on this device.
If your G2 has ever heated, how did it happen?
What games or apps makes that phone overheat more than usual?
Is it only when brightness is at 100%? Does it happen more quickly or often using 4G?
How long does it take for the phone usually to start getting warm?
Thanks.

Mine overheated while stuck in a bootloop, and since I didn't know the proper hard shutdown procedure (hold the power button one second longer after the display goes blank), it never shut down, and if it had been winter, I could have used my phone as a hand warmer.
my phone have several issues but this heating problem worries me the most..
when im not touching the phone (placed on the table with display on but on lock screen) it is 35C to 38C
when i take it in hand nd unlock and even if i do nothing it rises and reaches 42-45C
when i use apps like gmail, maps, or sms the temprature is around 45-48C
when i play small games it goes between 50-60C
but the most worrying part is when i play heavy games.. the temprature goes above 60C and stabilizes at 65C.. aont once in a while it reaches 68C but comes down sooner
when i run benchmarking apps. the temprature went 70C and even reached 72C twice... will the device can handle such temprtures?
i know most of the processors are made to handle not more than 70C.. so im doubting this heat might burn my phone internals..
is it like this for all snapdragon 615 phones? or will it b fixed if they update to lollipop which is best suited for 64 bit processors?
or should i return the phone ( i have 6 days ) coz its defective??
please give me a reasonable reply some1.. i tried all forums and no reply.. please help me... i dont wanna regret buying this phone in the mean time i dont wanna regret returning this phone either so kindly help me
just went through this video.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NoODiio7qFw same case for me to oso i guess its comon for every1
yes i m also facing this issue and this issue is really big to worry about. I don't think it will be fixed, its seems hardware problem....... Recording videos increase my phones temp. a lot, to 70-75°c. I m really disappointed to have yureka!:banghead:
Sent from my AO5510 using XDA Free mobile app
hey yes the phone overheats but dont worry...it seems to b kinda like a software bug...its cyanogens second company cmon...march 26 is the date for lollipop upgrage for it...so i guess the update will make the fone reach it full functionality...n i saw videos of the fones glass break test and bending test...its got really tough hardware...so it can mostly handle it,...bt i sujjest you not to usee it too heavily till the next upgrade...HOPE THIS HELPED..plz click like if it helped
Over heating in yureka is a software issue and hope it will be solved in future updates. Till then you can try to keep your memory usage low and clear the background processes frequently to keep a check on the temp. Try to stop all the unnecessary process and services that are running in background. It will help a lot.
Just change performance mode to balance mode and heating problem is gone
I bought an LG G6 not so long ago. But I have noticed it is getting really warm when using it. It normally hitting 36-41 degrees Celcius, this is so especially when I am using the camera.
Is this the normal temperature for this phone? Are there solutions to this problem?
Thanks for your replies in advance.
I didnt measure but my phone doesnt get hot. In fact S7 and P10 I had before were considerable warm when using with cam and games...P10 even on 4G.....G6 has an advanced cooling system as I heard nad on that part should be better....Do you use any kind of case? It should help at least you wont notice it. Your temps arent so high to damage your phone...
could be you have a rogue app

Yes. The G6 has a more advanced cooling system and non of this should be happening. My worry is that I got a faulty machine and i might regret in the future.
I will get a case and see the difference.. If it persists I will consider returning.
Thanks

I have been monitoring my usage whenever it starts hot and closed some of the apps that were just running idle and nothing. I also did a factory reset and that did not help as well.
What is your cell signal strength and what radios (GPS? WiFi? Bluetooth? Cellular?) are you using when you get lots of heat?
It may be that you are pumping lots of energy into maintaining a weak connection over LTE, while using GPS and bluetooth. In such situation, you could get warm even if you aren't doing anything CPU/GPU intensive, even with screen off.

sounds like it could be faulty my lg g6 never gets warm unless its working really heard ie installing tons of stuff
Not a problem unless a message pops up saying it's too hot and it must dim your screen. Never had that on my G6 even in direct sunlight or doing VR.
Idk mine never gone to more than 38 degrees... And that was when temperure here in my ****ry were like 40 outside... So actually that is what i like about the phone that it is always cool ? currently @ 25, average 30, max. 34. Soo that's dope for me.

Its normal the phone heating up if you have much apps in background or depending what the apps are doing in background.
My G6 heats when i use the camera for 2-3 minuts, and Oreo didnt fix anything, its the same heat as always so dont be so affraid and use the phone the way you want. Cause if you are limiting your usage based on the heat then you never gonna use your phone 100%.

i have only whatsapp,kik and facebook also i deleted all lg junks.Yes i accept that my device may hot or warm while charging or playing game its normal.Problem is that warms while normal use.I think its not normal for a flagship.There is no differentcen between lg g2 (sd801) and g6 (sd821).Shame on LG.
