hey,
I read on here that some of us had pb about hot temperature while using the phone.
mine goes up to 45°C(yes I checked with BATTI 2.4) any software solution?
it gets hot when I call, surfing the web on opera, mp3 player...and even when it's charging.
I think it comes from the battery but maybe someone noticed something else?
I think it's normal when you use wi-fi or multitask.
normal ? i don't think its normal haha 45c how you can say its normal for a telephone?.. explaine me
mine only get hot when I use gps
also temp measure programs don't measure
what temp your device is on the surface it's
the batt temp
and batts get hot when much juice is drawn
it's weird because I had many HTC before and it got hot but never like that! maybe it's normal to get hot but so much seems bad to me!
my thesis is that the pb comes from the battery, would it be possible? by replacing by a new one, it would change for sure?
It's normal, its just that the battery cover of the x1 is from metal so it feels much hotter then an plastic battery cover of other htc phones
smart answer, didn't think about it.
I'll check on my old htc3600, finally htc is not so idiot by making cells 100%plastic.
I'm thinking, if you're right, is this pb of battery is known on the Iphone 1generation?(since the xperia and iphone have metal cover)

don't feel anything... I use the plastic case
which plastic case?
dd you take off the metal cover from the cell?
I suspect he mean a case

wowow I just realized about the case: even if you use a plastic case/cover, the phone gets hot everywhere(back ANDFRONT)! so the case doesn't change a lot???
my gets hot when plugged to car charger, less hot when using wi-fi
Dont use batti that causes overheating problem.I was using batti and i got same problem as you.Use wm battery.Cheers.
I have this experience for example with skype. Launch skype (even without WIFI), pres 'power off' and the display will go down .. but skype will still be active and it will even send some data, all the time.
In few minutes you can warm your hands with Xperia.
Anyway it does not seem to harm the battery, it just drains it.

you r right, it's worth it to try.
which case do you have?
you should try this
look in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=514647 it should help with your overheat problem, i installed it myself and had a drop in temperature very quickly.
Crazy freaking phone man, I've never seen something like this.
My phone was exposed to 15 degree(f) weather and I when I tried to use it the screen would move so slow, the buttons wouldn't move on the phone and I checked the HTC battery widget and it said my battery temp was -6c. I turned off the phone and sat it by my heater to warm it up I had to pry out the battery. The screen had frost on it. It was working but will it turn back on? should I turn it back on?
Id say wait a while close to the heater, by while I mean a few hours, to make sure moisture will not damage the phone.
Edit: not you by the phone, just the phone.
My heater warmed it up pretty fast. I turned it back on and my battery level dropped like 15% so I'm hoping I didn't mess up the battery.
why would you expose a smart phone to those kind of temps for a prolonged period? doesnt seem very wise does it.
Put it in rice if you have it. Don't worry, won't damage the phone. Rice absorbs all the condensation.
I've noticed that the device is pretty hot. I'm not sure, which is why I want to verify this with you.
I've used the "Battery Indicator" app which shows that the temp is 34-37 Celsius.
Does that seem about right?
Thank you
yep that's perfectly normal : )

Really? Cause it always feels hot in my hand....
Could it be that I'm just hot (cause the weather here is hot as well)?
What would be too hot ( I mean what temperature ).
I've had the phone restart itself twice yesterday after getting too hot (don't know the temp it was at though)

34-37c is absolutely normal. Its quite cold where I am atm, and the battery is 37c.
You've also no idea that the phone restarted due to heat. I've gone through 5 replacements now for various reasons, and they all got pretty warm under use. However one of them got stupidly hot, so hot you couldn't even hold onto it without hurting your hand. Thats why I got that one replaced.
And yes, if the ambient temperature is hot, it'll make the phone feel hotter aswell.
None of my GSII's have ever restarted on their own though. Could've been due to an app/widget though.
There has been 2-3 threads on this, one of which I created myself.
It's normal for the device to get quite hot, especially around the camera at the back and the screen near the top of the phone when gaming or watching videos over wifi. It shouldn't get so hot it can't be held though. It also doesn't help if you have a case on the phone, especially a thick gel-type one. I'm currently looking for a thin perforated cover, like the official Samsung one, but unlike that one with protection for the top and the bottom of the device. I suspect these holes will help with heat dissipation.
The phone has inbuilt safety for overheating I believe, although mine has never gotten hot enough to activate it. The phone will shut down if it thinks any more heat will lead to damage.

Thanks!
Was just about to ask about the case, since I bought a black gel one.
So do any of you know of a case that won't affect the heat ( a lot )?
I am honestly afraid to walk with the device without a case so that I don't break the screen (or scratch it) or break the phone in half (it looks so delicate!)
Like I said, the perforated covers look the best for preventing heat build up, although the official Samsung case doesn't protect the top or bottom corners, which perversely are the most likely parts to be damaged if the phone is dropped. I'd like to get hold of a cover that looks like that but with all round protection.
But, is it also "normal" that the phone gets incredibly hot when you play music with headphones on?
I seem to have experienced all the issues everybody went through (except for the shutdown) but nobody ever mentioned music (i am talking about 3 minutes playback not hours!)
Anybody with the same issue?
Take the back case off and smell near the top left of the phone..
When mine got hot a weird smell came from it.
It's probably worth checking with something like osmonitor that you haven't got a stuck task.
A few times mine has got really hot and it was a process using 96% cpu...
Most recently it was SocialHub which I don't even use! Had to reboot the phone to stop it as it wouldn't die.
I also had extremal heating in that area while playing angrybirds and after I move app from SDcard to internal memory - All comes OK. So I suppose it is because your apps ar data (music etc) located on SD and some of them due to speed limits heats during work. (it is in addition to WiFi and other network activity). Cause when I plug SD into comp by adapter and perform long file framsfer it also heats
So is this thing hotter than the original Galaxy S? I can live with the phone at that temp, but any higher is questionable.
It will shut down if it gets to hot. And I guess it takes quite a bit because a few months ago on engadget.com I saw some video of an iPhone a palm phone and I think a nexus one on a grill to see which one will either break or shut down first. And after like a minute on a grill it finally shut off. So I wouldn't worry about it unless its so hot u can't hold it. Once with my evo I was using 4g GPS Bluetooth. And charging the phone and it got up to around 115° (around 46° in celcius) and was fine. I shut it down tho when I noticed it got that high tho haha

Mine (running XWKE7) went to 50 c when gaming "we rule" in game hub with charger plugged in. No external SD installed though.
Also keep in mind that fatter phones have more space to dissipate the heat. This phone is thin thin. That heat has to go somewhere! That's why I want a case that vents

I think my phone is sometimes very hot.But after I have ROM KE7 I think is better.

as soon as I start playing "real football 11" i can essentially cook an egg on the phone. Other games are fine though
Could it be due to the installation of overclocking apps? Didn't notice it was this hot during my first few days of usage.
In the first few days after I got my SGS II the phone went really very hot every time I charged it or when I played a game or even when I watched a movie.
Since I use Lite'ning Rom and banned some system apps the problem vanished.
So for me it seems to be a software-sided problem.
Hi,
Does anyone have any ideas how to keep my phone cool in the summer?
Since the touchscreen works with heat, I can't use it in the summer.
In the manual i think it said it doesn't work above 35°C room temp., but in the summer it gets about 45°C in the shade.
It's only spring here, and it already makes touches that I didn't make, I use-to blow on the screen to keep it cool, but it doesn't work now.
Please help.
Thanks in advance

Kind of the same here. Summer is about to begin, and my Galaxy S i9000 gets really hot - in the following places:
- just to the right of the Samsung logo in the top-right corner
- on the screen surface
- on the back where the battery is
and then if it gets too hot it automatically reboots, crashes and has a really bad lag.
Doesn't anyone have an idea how to solve this problem?? It getting very much hotter here.
try to cover the back of the phone in aluminium folie (i dont know the english wors but you know the silver thing from.the kitchen )

Um isn't that gunna keep the heat in?? 55°C SIM Card, isn't probibly the best idea....
When battery is discharging,the inner electric resistance becomes bigger/larger,especially when calling/playing music/gaming.But the current that the phone needed mustn't reduce,so a large amount of energy will be wasted and of course,the battery gets hot.
BTW,when the battery is under 60¡ãC,it's safe.
Regular data connection/high CPU occupancy rate/blablabla can make a device hot.
Maybe you can try to flash a stock rom and see the problem solved or not.
Sorry for my poor English.
My phone goes up to 55°C with no problems, just my fingers sweaty lol. Only happens when I'm charging, on the phone and using it at the same time though.

Thanks for the post guy's :laugh:, but the main problem really is: when the room temp. is hot, it causes the phones temp. to rise also, and then it doesn't register touches on the screen. This also happens when the phone is really hot [thanks for the tips, I'll turn data off, and not use while charging.]
I am seriously considering freezing my phone, to cool it off enough so that I can use it.

thats for sure mate.Room temp. went high,of course the device got hot,theres no doubt~
next,about unregistered touch,the touchscreen we are using (what's the name of it ??),the best temperature to use is between 0-35C,when it's >>(higher higher )than 35C(50C and so on )there will be some unregistered touches so dont worry if this 'tooooo high' temperature only lasts for a short period of time.But if the screen works in the highhighhigh temperature,it may cause damages.
back 2 the topic,where gets hot when u use ur phone ?

It gets hot right below the Samsung logo on the left, sometimes randomly, sometimes not.
Since updating to lollipop I have had occasional rapid battery drains. The phone would drain at a rate of 4 hours from full to nothing and the phone would get very hot. Looking at the battery stats the only thing odd I could see is the phone was awake the entire time. My first thought was an app that might be keeping it awake but I was unable to find one responsible. I finally figured it out yesterday.
I use a belt pouch that has a magnet. The bottom of the phone is near this magnet when it is in the pouch. Under KitKat this would cause the phone to bring up the S-view screen, but it would quickly go back off so it was not problem. The phone would properly sleep while in the belt pouch. What now happens under lollipop is the magnet causes both the phone to stay awake and sometimes the screen to come on dim while in the pouch. With the phone not in the pouch the battery consumption has gone back to normal of 60-70% remaining at the end of the day.
So apparently the lollipop has changed the response to magnets near the base of the phone.
Good detective work.:good: Most people would just say Lollipop sucks I want an iPhone.
