Samsung Galaxy S7 EDGE Overheating Problem... - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

hey guys i really have a problem with my s7 edge (g935fd) . it gets superhot and i feel the heat through my fingers by the metal sides and near camera (also powerbutton). i have tried all stock roms from january 2018 (cant go back because bootloader is locked).now im on btu oreo latest firmware still having the issues ..did factory reset nothing helped..battery is ok 5-6hr sot but device heats up in just 2-5 minutes on a very normal usage... ambient temperature > 40(degree c).. is it normal for this phone to heat up so much?

exynos or snapdragon ? im using the exynos one and never had any serious heating issues.. it might heat up a bit while charging or when using mobile data (4g) etc which is acceptable imo

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

[Q] Heating problem

Hey guys I have just now upgraded from grand 1 to 2. I am noticing that the phone heats up a lot with slightly higher use of 3g or playing a game even for just 2 mins. Any of you have a solution to this heating problem?
I have also noticed that the RAM is always above 0.9 GB of use. This maybe due to the heavy touchwiz so just need a confirmation. Also I have upgraded to android 4.4.2 and the heating still exists. Any help is much appreciated.
are you joking

[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

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.

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 ?

Note 4 snapdragon Getting Hot

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.

galaxy s8 heats up

My s8 heats up a bit not too much but enough to make my fingers uncomfortable from taking in too much heat. I have the screen resolution set on 1080p. Anyone else facing this issue?
When you're doing intensive stuff the phone will heat up, all of them heat up.
So far the S8 has run cooler than any of my past snapdragon devices.

Not much just usual use. You know just instagram Spotify n that. I tried using battery saving for an extended period of time and the phone still gets a fair bit warm

Sometimes. It heats up either way. Brightness is on around 50%. Not too many apps running in the background either.
You're not facing this issue?

It's winter down here is Australia RN and Idk if it's due to this but the phone doesn't heat up anymore. Even after heavy use. Could be due to several software updates the phone received
