How long have you had the phone?
Mine got warm first few days of use, but once broken in, all warmth went away. Regular temp like my MT4G now

I have the phone for a little over a week but today it was hot, i mean i have never felt a phone that hot, hope it will get better or may be this is how these phones are lol

This morning I used Viber to make a call. Somewhere at the 29th minutes into the conversation I noticed the phone was getting so hot that I can not let it touch my face any more so I hanged up and check, Baterry Monitor Widget indicates temperature were at 114.4 Fahrenheit. I have 3Do case on at that moment so I took the case off in hopes to cool it down ...
Anyone ever get that kind of temperature with your phone before?

Is this something we should be worried about?
I just got my Amaze yesterday and haven't even used it yet.
Waiting for a screen protector.
Is this a common problem? 114f sounds pretty serious.

This may be weird, but have you guys switched to the SIM cards included in the box? The first week I had mine, it used to get really hot, I read somewhere that switching to the new sim card fixed that. Just a guess really, mine gets warm, but only after intensive use for about an hour or so..

There is an update too that was released and that from what I've heard has helped with this type of issue.

Just about every phone overheats once in awhile but you'll notice it a lot more with HTC phones because of the materials (metals) used to build the phone. Metals will always be too hot in the Summer and too cold in the winter. Similar to leather seats in a car without the heat or a/c on.

Not sure since this is my first 1/2 hour conversation - I will recheck again tomorrow with both calling on Tmobile and Viber to sort it out. I suspect it may cause by using Viber eventhough my previous use of Viber on HD2 did not caused such ...

I hopes it only happened once in a while too since I came from HD2 running both Winmo and Android - both SD card and Nand and my HD2 always been inside Otterbox Defender case and I've never had such issue.
Let's cross finger. Still have another 7 days to exchange tho

Viber
Could you tell me what Viber is?

It's a VOIP program that allowed you to make free international calls provided the other party has it on their phone too. It's work on iPhone3GS and up and on any Android. Similiar to Skype and stuff like that without the hassle to sign-in when you using it.

It's happening to my phone also , every single phone that's released is going to have a faulty batch & I think me & you received them my phone got hot & my battery broke ;x

FWIW: Mine NEVER gets hot--no matter what I am doing. The initial update (included in the newer roms) supposedly fixed the heating issue.

check your battery usage to see what app is using up your battery. i had the same problem with my amaze it would get supper hot and battery would die in 4 hours with no usage. turns out it was youmail the voicemaill app that was killing my phone.

Is there an app you recommend for monitoring battery usage?
I've seen screen shots of people showing some sort of battery graph and chart before, just don't know what they used to get that.
Thanks.

Its all about radio transmits while using wifi and voice over ip . I think it happens especially when use VOIP software. Example fring too. Just try to soft reset and it will fix. It happens to Samsung galaxy ii as well.

Not in my case. I was using VoIP on my mobile data connection.
I guess Revolution maybe right in that his and mine are in the same faulty batch though. Hopefully we got more members tracking on this issue for 114> Fareinheit is absolutely worrysome

For everyone who bought their phones in June 2011

Hi guys
I'm looking at getting this phone in July when it's released in Canada. I just want to know how many people who bought the most recent phones are having problems with screens (yellowing), and the battery/reboot issues.
I love this phone but now I see all the problems it has I'm not as inclined to buy it...
Thanks,
Elliott

Can you get this thread closed by a mod and then create one exactly the same but add the option "I have no problems"?
i honestly dont have any issues with it..
Crap sorry I forgot that option...
Thanks for the replies
no problems with mine either. best phone ive had - easily.
I have the yellowing screen, but tbh, only when I searched for it, I noticed, on normal daylight outside or inside, while txting or browsing net, by watching movies or playing games, you willl NEVER notice it, unless you are looking for it. and its only when its showing darkgrey color and only when brightness is less than 50%, that was the only condition I was able to see it, any other color will NOT have this issue, and if you have combination of more colors, you have no chance to see it...
This cannot annoy me more than the fact that I will send my SGSII for repair and be without it for 2 weeks and then get it back with new display, but same issue..
Again here ... NO issues at all. Amazingly good phone!,
I have not noticed any battery or spontaneous reboots on my SGS. I bought it in early June.
Neither did I notice the yellow banding, but this does not mean that it is there.
no problems so far
I got my phone a week ago today, had no issues at all its a fantastic android, the best I have ever owned.
5 bad pixels here. No other issues.
No problems at all with the phone, best one I ever had
(and I'm now in my 50's, so I've had a lot of phones)
The unlucky people with problems are a bit like the unlucky HTC Desire owners, when it first came out many had to be returned for repair.
I dont have any of these problems. I got my phone 17th June
My battery used 0% of the battery while being inactive for 12 hours

It's obviously not. It's not actually possible for it to use 0% of the battery and remain on. Hell - the battery would run dry if it wasn't even in the phone, given enough time, so it's never using 0% unless it's actually empty!!!
fellow canuck here using it on Fido. love it. no problems here. I never turn down my brightness below 100%, seems like a slap in the face to all the engineers who helped develop the super AMOLED+ screen
I got mine 7 days ago and it's back in it's box ready to go back! I should say I'm getting another one though.
Mine had a very poor microphone, so poor infact that when I called myself and left a voicemail, I couldn't understand it Also had a reception issue, and was generally a lemon!
NONE

Who else signed up to be part of the Verizon customer support test? I did just to be helpful, this was at the end of February, and BOOM! Today, I leap-frogged past ice Cream sandwich to a super secret OS called "Apple Pie". It's given my Maxx a 3D screen (no glasses needed), unlocked 4 additional CPU cores, and extends the battery life to 4 days of constant video play.
And the porn's better, too.

In some related news, after running spledidly for 4 days, today I'm having some garbage problems with this LEAK. In fact I'm considering RSDing back to .173 because of it.
Pull down curtain becomes TOTALLY unresponsive at random times. Hot reboot required to fix.
After dialing a phone number, talking, hanging up and the going to make another call, the previous phone number I dialed is there causing me to dial a 20 digit number
Google Voice notifications do not stay in the curtain. They notify then automatically get deleted.
WiFi connectivity drops out random, dconn and reconn to fix.
That's all I have encountered so far. Little problems I know but they all add up.

Frankly I'm sick of the whole thing. I grabbed someone's iPhone and shoved it into his eye. As for the guy with the Android phone...he now has a new 'roid problem to ask his doc' about.

vibration motor failure?

so I've unlocked my boot loader and am running the latest INFECTION rom by neo.
I've noticed, probably for the last couple months at least, that if my phone vibrates a lot (ex, in vibration mode, getting alerts a lot from instant message, or toggling vibration in status bar toggle back and forth), each time it gets weaker and weaker.
but after a while (possibly hours, could be less or more, Idk), it gets stronger. at least until it starts being used again, then it gets weaker as it is being used.
I've been running custom roms pretty much since I started using this phone, in November '12.
so the question, is this a hardware problem, or could it be fixed going back to stock?
if hardware, is replacing the motor a viable solution? is it soldered to the main board?
I appreciate any input on this matter, thanks!

it could be a couple of things...if this has been an ongoing thing since you started flashing last year...it may be roms as some have different haptic settings...but if its just very recent the hardware could be failing or it loosened itself outta the housing in the inside....i know a few people on here who have changed their motors and where they got it...its on either the rezound general, q&a, or accesorries thread

well I don't remember exactly when it started, but I remember realizing that the vibration would get weak if used too often. I suppose it happened all at once, but it might have been gradual, and I only just noticed it once it reached a certain threshold.

I have experienced the same symptoms, and I'm running the stock Sense 3.6 ROM (rooted). But for me, it's on and off: it'll do this for a couple of days and then be fine for several weeks. I'm not worried about it anymore. At this point it's been going on for almost a year, I'd say, and vibration hasn't ever fully stopped working in all that time.
So that at least confirms that it's not ROM specific.

It's never come to a dead stop, it's just been extremely week at times.
I'm really hoping it's not the main board failing to supply the right power to the motor.
So what happened, the motor I got on eBay was DOA (tested it with strands of wire as probes). My old motor turned on at a couple volts, but the other one was completely dead. (Unfortunately I took my rez apart twice cause I expected it to work, lol).
I did a stupid thing I suppose, I tried to use my old motor's brushes on the new motor (after accidentally opening the broken one up and seeing it spun with my test leads). Long story short I ruined my original motor, so I have absolutely 0 haptic/vibration on my phone right now. Let me tell you, it's really annoying! (Especially pressing back )
Well I got a refund from the seller and bought a new one yesterday but it won't be shipped till Monday.

Thanks again! Just got a new motor installed and it works great! (It's crazy awesome to have haptic feedback again)
I bought one for the HTC amaze 4g, and cut off the connector and soldered my old one on. Put some heat shrink on it and installed it, and that did the trick. Good thing there's a little bit of extra room under the back cover!

Z3v Overheating

My phone has been over heating. A LOT. Even with basic use. No gaming or anything. Anyone experience this? I called tech and they were no help. Told me to run in safe mode and remove my SD card..... Ya that won't work for me.
Thinking about full wipe but I dread resetting up everything.

I haven't had any issues like that. Only over heading I experienced were while using car navigation while wireless charging. You can try shopping cache plus restart to see if something is stuck, or if you have a new installation freeze that and see if things get better.
Another thing to look at is detailed battery use, see if there is any surprises. Many times the app that causes heating will also cause faster battery drain. If you can't find the app then full wipe may be needed.
Edit: one other question, did you change case recently? some cases don't transfer heat as well.
I did. A lot. Got to the point that I could take one picture and the camera would shut off because it was over heating. Hard reset didn't fix anything. I also had wireless problems (wifi would never stay off, airplane mode didn't work), and battery life was pretty poor (coming from Note 2). Replacement phone seems much better on all counts.
Thanks for the info guys. No case on the phone. Still working on rooting and playing with Xposed.... Maybe something there will help.... Or just have Verizon send a new one. I really do love this phone... So hopefully I can resolve this.... Maybe lollipop will help... If we ever get it....

So had Verizon send me a new phone..... Have had it a day and a half and have already seen signs of over heating...... Granted it's close to 100 outside..... But I've been in the car with AC using GPS and it was getting really warm. I've had SEVERAL other phones with the same or more heavy usage with no over heating issues......
Not sure what to do. If it keeps up I'm going to have to consider a new phone....
Anyone know of any risks using the phone when it's over heating??? It's not going to explode or catch fire is it???

Same here. I can use the camera on this one but this is annoying. Might sell and go back to my trusty Note 2 that still hasn't sold anyway.
Anybody find any workarounds (besides the tin-foil inside the case thing)? I get camera shut-down after just playing around with the various modes without even recording anything. Thinking about getting an ice-pack to mount on the phone when I want to record videos......

sorry friends.. I'm new to xda. sorry.

my camera closing ifself after 2 minute around because of overheating

hi my friends. ı just have bought an x and tryed to capture video but that problem happened. so is there any chance to fix this?
what ı did
updated the latest version.
fixed with pc companion
did some changes at camera settings.
but phone getting hot even in normal using.
ı need help thnx.
Hmm. It has happened to me about 2 times since i bought this phone. 1. It was chraging so the temperature was a bit higher, thus the camera shut down. 2. It was a bright day and I was trying out different camera tools under the hot sun, camera shut down after 5 minutes. Also check if you are running a lot/or any intensive apps that cause it to overheat. Mine can overheat when charging or when having several apps open + camera. When i use the camera alone, it doesn't overheat.

If you are capturing full hd video for 10 minutes straight it can happen. Though it doesn't happen to me after only 10 minutes. What ROM are you running? You can disable the warning if you are rooted but then if using for long you will be risking harming the device
I second
Hey bro
I can confirm that I too experience heat issues in normal usage as well.
I live in India and temperature here is around 43 degrees Celsius. But even in AC room it gets hot when recording full HD videos within a minute.
So don't know where the problem is.. I bought it through flip kart and raised a return request. Let's see how it goes. (they don't have refund option so I'm kind of stuck with this phone)
IL update you.
If you figure out any workaround let me know

Within ONE minute? Woah thats terrible. Did you try using a different ROM ?
Solution: attach a fan to your phone
Funny

No I can't use a different rom as I bought the phone last week. So there's a 10 day replacement warranty which I don't want to lose and also the 1 year manufacturer warranty.
Regarding the solution u gave I guess it is working for you but can't do that coz I don't want my phone to look ugly

It was just a joke, mate I didn't try that solution XD, and my phone doesn't have the problem your's has
Cool brother. I too was joking.
Was really frustrated with the phone but if there was any consolation, in AC my phone scored around 82k in AnTuTu (no heat now) and at the same time friends iPhone 6s scored 80k.
I don't know where the problem is.. Confused ?

I really have no clue, if your supplier doesn't replace your phone you can try disabling the overheat warning with root (since you aren't actually overheating you won't have problems, just keep it safe). I start to worry there are some faulty XX models. For example, mines battery is terrible and I dont understand why. We are talking about 2.8 hours on screen time. Sadly I voided my warranty before noticing the problem

Sorry to hear about that!
Won't u be able to get the battery replaced? Is it too costly?
Else since you already voided warranty, trying different roms available and sticking to the one that gives gud soc wud b helpful I think. Unless you tried that already.. ?

Nah, its not worth the trouble for me replacing the battery even if it costed 10 bucks. It most likely wont fix it. Roms do very little changes. I will try running a debloat script someone has posted in case my badly deleted bloated apps cause problems (though I cant see anything like that reported)
Ok here's the update.. The phone cannot be replaced it seems. The guy who came for verification said that the battery temperature should be more than 50 degrees then only phone will be replaced with the new one. But the camera itself closes may be at 45 degrees. I cannot get a screen shot. So im stuck with this phone.
So have to make the most out of it other than the camera.
