Charging makes it pretty hot.. Make sure it doesnt have a case as that will make the phone hotter.
Also kill unused apps once in a while as the more resources you use the hotter the phone will get especially when watching videos or playing games.

it got very hot while i was just surfing the net, won't watch movies or play games on it. It was too hot i counldnt hold it any longer, wasnt charging it either.
Might be faulty. Try taking the batt out and put it back in, if still the same take it back to the place you got it and replace

It felt uncomfortable and it was hot.
I will give it a few extra days and see how it goes when I am back home.

It is normal for it to get a bit hot, don't worry.

Yes, it's normal. It's because it's so thin there's not much space for the heat to go.
You don't have to take out the battery, just close the applications and let it cool down
Edit: too late!!!
Heating is normal, hanging not normal at all. Angry Birds and browser shouldn't cause that. Can't say i used the other apps you mentioned, but my birds don't hang, they fly perfectly
Well it has been a long time and it has not hanged since then
hope it was a one time issue
i think its normal because its a dual core ?
So when im playing O&C on 3G this phone get so hot that I can feel the heat even with the otter box case on,the heat is around the top part of the phone,and the temperature reading is 115'-120'F is that because wifi is constantly scanning?..or is it because of the game constantly drain data?

I have this exact same problem I think the reason is because both WiFi and 3g is on running at the same time I think thats why it gets hot
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
Hopefully thats all it is cause I was goin to return it.& the 3D ac charger push a lot of power into the phone really fast(sorry I don't know the technical terms) and get over 115'F really quick
...I'm now using the iPhone charger,it charge very slow for this phone but it keeps the temperature under 110'F while playing Order&Chaos

I'm having the same issue with my 3vo. I'm hoping this amount of heat will not cause any long term damage to our phones over time.

Yeah,that's why I got insurance just incase the problem decide to show it self after 30days
Sent From HTC EVO 3D Using XDA Premium App
Ive had this problem when playing games with airplane mode on so I am assuming the processor is the culprit. Just played zombieland usa and my 3vo got up to 110.
Those kinds of temperatures aren't going to hurt anything, i think the auto safety is at 50c or 122f. One of the problems with high temperatures is weakening solder joints. I would say 140+ is the point where things might start getting a little too hot. But the phone will shut down before it gets that hot.

I had the same problem while playing. And also I noticed my phone would get extremely hot while plugged in as well. I checked out a few threads here and figured it wouldnt be a problem. This morning I woke up to a dead evo. My guess is that extended periods at that temp will cause damage. It may have just been my evo as my friend's does not get hot.
I've played on 3g/WiFi for hours on end and my phone has never gotten very hot. Maybe a tad bit,but nothing like what you guys are describing. Idk.

My phone gets very hot after just an hour or so of web browsing. Not unbearable but very noticeable. Anyone else experiencing this?
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Haven't experienced anything like this while using the phone. Only time it has gotten hot is when I had it charging in the car after I first got it.

Mine has some, but I wouldn't say "very hot". Ive noticed every time its happened, if I hit the recent apps button theres like 10 things in there. From what I understand that SHOULDNT matter ..... but I'll be damned if I dont close them all, and go about my browsing and the phone cools off eventually. Could be coincidence, idk. (Cools off over the matter of some minutes while still browsing)
It cools off pretty quick but only if I stop using the phone. I'm thinking it may be my case. I have the seidio pt (innocase I think its called?) case from bestbuy...

You might want to get it replace, some devices have heat issues.

plz replace it immediately. because it is very costly device

Maximum heat it reached while playing asphalt 7 was around 46C and while charging around 38 till 41
So I think you should get it replaced

Hello, I am having a problem with my note and it is scaring me. As soon as my note boots it is shutting off completely and restarting. I was just using it with fine last night. I had the uber kernel installed and oced to 1.9 cpu but it wasn't even that hot.. After thinking it was the Rom that was causing this I did a complete wipe and flashed the candykat Rom, upon boot when the cyogenmod log in screen appears it shut down and rebooted again.. twice. I'm hoping nothing is damaged internally. I am able to stay in the recovery just fine without any problems. Please help me.. And when I say shutdown I mean insta black screen and reboot..

Idk if I will do that lol. But now I think I know what the problem is. So yesterday I was using my note and it shut off. The battery was full and when it restarted the battery all the sudden dropped to 60%. It turned off again and went to 1%... I thought it was glitching when it said 1% but after amin it shutdown due to low battery. One thing I then tried was having my phone plugged in while using it and I played games, used my phony heavy and what do you know.. It didn't turn off. So I'm thinking I have a bad battery. PS: I took my note to a pawn shop and they said the battery was bloated. He said it wasn't supposed to spin while on a flat surface.. What do you think?
It seems while I'm playing a game the battery heats up and that causes shutdown cause I'm typing this and I don't have my charger plugged in and its fine..

Yes a bulging battery is a sign that it's bad. Batteries are cheap. Especially on eBay. I buy an extra battery and charging dock for all my devices. This way one is always fully charged, and I don't have to plug in the device unless I need Odin or to file transfer. I learned that lesson 2yrs ago when my usb charging port went bad.

If my power button was stuck would I see the shutdown menu before it rebooted, shutdown, reboot, sleep, etc? I'm just trying to make sure my battery is the problem.. I don't want to deal with a power button..
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
No you won't see the power menu. It just keeps restarting. I don't think you'd even see your home screen because it restarts before the rom loads.

Oh well then. That's awesome because I'm able to use my phone for more than 5 mins without it shutting down. It usually shuts down when I start playing a game or something intensive. So it has to be the battery! I'm really happy.

Well my phone shut off again when using another not as bad but still a bit puffed out note battery. I don't understand what's going on here... I'm scared to buy a new one thinking that It won't work still... my phone never turns off as much when the charger is in... But guaranteed with battery only. Less than 10 mins.
