In a word: No. I've had none of these issues.

My note gets hot as well, especially when taking a video for a few minutes. I only have a flip case so the back cover is stock. I assume the heat is from the cpu area (top left?) Under normal use heat is ok. I also noticed that the video recording and play back is not smooth, even with most apps off. Hopefully an OS upgrade will help. These N American Notes have the qualcomm cpu which seems to perform slower.

Take the thing back and demand a new one, no it should not get that hot. I use the s**t out of mine (battery last 8 hours) and it never ever gets hot. I have a white one and the thing has yet to lag and is super fast, do not miss my SGS2 at all. Well, I do miss CM9 but now I'm getting O/T.
Take it back ASAP.
just put that flip case on and notice it is getting pretty warm quick while using it for a while. i bought mine here in xda dont think i can take it to a store for return !!!
I can feel some warmth coming from mine right now, and my Streak used to do the same.
I've noticed mine gets hot right below the camera when multitasking for a while, or playing a graphics intense game like shadowgun or dead space, usually right after I finish with the game, close it and it will be hot and will start to cool down within 5 minutes. I also have a speck candyshell case in my black note. I might go and replace it if it keeps happening.

ok here is what i did . i called tech support my luck ended with a very nice guy but he didnt know nothing about nothing , lol at least i got that feeling , i demanded a note in my account that will force the store to replace the phone , went down to the store explained to them that i was treated badly by one of their reps , they deeply apologized & i told them what tech support said which was 3 majic words. CUSTOMER / BUYER REMORSE PERIOD , which means you dont have to give them a reason to want an exchange based on at&t policy , NO REASON AT ALL, just tell them you are not liking this headset & they have to replace it no questions asked , once i said that they tried to make me happy & i ended up with another one plus some credits on my bill, plus a new Moshi screen protector LOL. thank you all for the help.

Do you think you'll be able to test it with some gaming, multitasking with a bunch of apps open and surf the web at the same time and report back if it gets hot or if it doesn't, I want to know if is a normal dual core thing or if is something bad with mine.

Maybe your battery charger is bad, mine does not get hot charging, just hot when I run 3 apps at the same time in the car.

Ok so Im almost convinced that the mayor contributor for heating the phone isn't the processor, but the screen! My phone while in idle in my pocket sits about 84f, I surf the web for 10 minutes and the phone was at 95f, on top of that I played shadowgun for about 5 minutes on top of that and got it to 100f, now I took the case off and put it in my car ac vent with the backplate against it and it wouldn't drop temperature, flipped it over so the screen would be against the cold air and within one minute the internal temperature of the battery had dropped to 93f just by cooling down the screen, Im on xda now and it dropped a few more degrees, granted Im running an overclock kernel at 1.75ghz at the moment so that might add to the temps my phone is putting out, gonna flash the stock kernel back in tonight and test and see if there's any difference.

If You Have An Overheating / Bootlooping Phone can you please post what you were doing and the hardware revision number and manufacturing date?
This is actually a two-fold question, one of which is ... what is the best way to test a new Rezound to see if it will superheat or bootloop. The other part, and the one my other thread got too off topic to be useful for, is to collect manufacture dates in hopes of figuring this out.
To get your phone manufacture date:
1. Dial ##7764726
2. Hit call
3. Insert 000000 for password
4. Hit Display Grouping
5. Manufacture Date Code is what you need there
lol oh man, just buy one already
Jay
Oh Jay ... you can swap yours out anytime you lucky dog Verizon telesales told me I should buy in-store because that will save 1-2 days for each swap. So be it ... but I need to figure out fast if it will bootloop or overheat or not. Hence the thread.
i can't swap mine out ever lol i'm over my 14 day return period, and i bought it from corporate because i didn't wanna wait at my store
and dude, i really tihnk it's just bad quality control...mine has light leakage, and i have 1 speck of dust under my screen that i never notice....but i've never overheat, i get like 16 hours battery life, i use it ALL the time, i never bootloop, i never crash, i've gotten only 1 force close on some aftermarket app....and i've had it since day 1 (nov 14)..idk man.

My respond reach a temperature of 128 degrees,but I attributed this to a conflict between htc's task killa and juice defender,While plug in.

I notice when I play on-line poker my phone heats up to 100-110 degrees or so. Never resets but does get a little warn. I have a crappy LG ally that I used for wifi only and play on-line poker on it and it doesn't heat up. Either it's the active 4g connection or something to do with the Rezound. I don't think my thunderbolt would heat up either on 4g.
Mine was getting real hot. It would feel like it was burning my leg when I had it in my pocket. The battery would drain in around 4 hours or less and the extended battery in around 6 hours. I was with in my 14 days so I exchanged it for another one. I will see how this one does. The first one was fine the first couple of days and I picked it up off the tablet on the 3rd day it was really hot. I just got the new one late yesterday afternoon and charged it. So I will see how the battery does today.
Hello,
first I would like to apologize, if this has been already discussed or asked or if posting in a wrong section.
Just I'm very worried and I don't have much time to browse and search for a solution now, so I decided to ask.
I bought my SGS2 in June. So far everything has been more than fine.
Usually I'm charging the phone during the night. 2 days ago, when plugging it off the charger, I noticed that the
phone was really hot.
A little bit earlier I had installed the GoPower app. It had showed a warning, that the battery is over 50'C.
Now I'm thinking if that might be caused by this app... ? Or just earlier there was nothing that would show me
the warning. But on the other side I think that I must have felt the phone getting hot...
Please help me!!
it maybe because of app, when i install swype and plug in charger it goes to 48C
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I have swype installed in my ROM. Never used it though Now I have uninstalled GoPower and we'll see how it will behave on the next charging...
Any other ideas please ?
It's not the Swype keyboard. I use it all the time without any over heating even when charging. You must have apps running in the back ground.
Anything 3D intensive can cause overheating.

I think it also depends on the room temperature.
48 degree Happens on my S2 either..nerver bothered about it...whats d reason behind it?
Darkman,you should try GB for eg-and see if its any better.My wife was running 4.0.4 stock and hers would heat up like yours.Sent it to Samsung and they just reloaded 4.0.4-which meant nothing fixed.
We then sent it back to our retailer,and they sent it to Samsung,who sent it back to us-still overheating.
Our retailer then credited our account for what she paid(£450) and told her to destroy the phone.
I have loaded rootbox/dreamkernel onto it and its running perfectly okay temperature wise.
So if I was you Id try a couple of things and if its still too hot then Id brick it so you get a new mobo for free.
Dear theunderling,
what is GB for eg please ?
You are pretty lucky as per your story. Just there is no way for this to happen in my country.
A friend of mine bought a Galaxy SIII, which wasn't ringing, after let some time unattended.
He sent it 3 times back for service and he requested his money back and after staying more
than 2 months (!!) without phone, they finally repaired it. What a scam !!!
Yes I was lucky.My wife bought it from a "catalogue" company(you pay like £10 a week).It was a woman from there that credited the account and told my wife to destroy the phone.
I wasnt going to bother paying for it if I didnt get satisfaction.
The phone didnt seem to be working properly(like yours) on 4.0.4,but not a problem since I put on rootbox.....so theoretically its a farce.
And every time she sent it back and forth she had to wipe then reinstall everything.
Samsung only seem to give a good service to total muppets that brick their phones.
They seem to penalise normal people who have genuine warranty claims through no fault of their own.
And I once had a motorola phone that was faulty.Van driver came to my door,took it away,then took it back repaired within 2 days.
And I only think its funny about my wifes phone because when I said in one of my threads(the motherboard one) that I was paying £450 for a s2,a guy was meaning I was a mug.
And Ive ended up getting a perfect s2 for free......lol
Good luck and GB means gingerbread.
Samsung galaxy s2 problems
Hi everyone Im sorry if im not in the right place to discuss this problem.

hey endritkanani,
I have the same issue, As in my Galaxy S2 will get hot at the same portions you have marked in the photograph. A battery monitoring app also shows the temp to be around 48 celsius for the battery. I assume its hardware related as the temperature increases even if I charge when the phone is switched off.
Have you been able to find any solution for your issues?
PS: the problem started for me after I sent the phone for repairs related to the proximity sensor. However the service place said that it had nothing to do with them though I doubt that.http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/confused.gif

If anyone reads this my d710 got hot as well while it was on stock ROM. Apparently if it;s the battery itself getting hot from normal use or when charging, it might a sign of a battery going bad, and purchasing a replacement would be a good idea.
I am not sure why, but my S4 shuts down during Geek Bench 2. I have to pull the battery for a few minutes to get it to boot back up. Is anyone else having this issue? It does not seem to have any other issues, it does fine with other benchmark software. Also the device seems very warm to the touch when playing games or even on a call.
ROM - Beans Build 5
Kernel - Stock
Anyone?
Yep, it just shut down on me as well. Very strange...
I'm not running Beans though, I'm running Hyperdrive.
I would contact the app developer. The dev may not have added compatibility for SCH-I545 yet, and should definitely give you a refund.
As for the heat, I'm getting that too. Whenever it gets too hot, I shut it down for a while. Maybe get a CPU tweaker, add a profile for when your phone gets too hot, such as a Max CPU of <800 MHz when temp is over 45 C. That should keep it cool.
Same
I get the same, The heat happens all the time for me(even when playing angry birds). Its more of a OS thing I think, touchwiz can not control its self.

Ok so I took my S4 back, got a new one and it did the same thing. The heat is so uncomfortable, I took the second back for a full refund (Verizon Charged me a restocking fee them bastards) I cannot deal with a hot phone in my hand and on my ear, my Note 2 runs great and never gets warm to the touch, I think I am going to hold out for the Note 3.

well i had something REALLY odd happen to the phone today that has never happened before ! the phone was laying on my dashboard whilst i went off and did some work. on my return i picked the phone up to book my client in for 6 weeks time. i went to open the diary in the phone, and the phone went crazy ! ! ! it was jumping to all different screens, opened the calender, then shut it again ... jumped from app to app then back to home screen. this must of carried on for 10 - 15 seconds? i ended up having to power the phone off to stop this random behavior. once i turned the phone back on .. it was fine ! could it of been that it was really hot today and the phone over heated causing this ? it was just really bizarre
EDIT .. just tried to txt a friend and the txt screen is behaving really odd now too ! its like im holding my finger on the screen .. so its putting numbers insted of letters although im only just making contact with the screen as light as i can ! and its not hot now ! and it even tried to call the person i was txting . something VERY odd and wrong suddenly started on this phone today

Did you leave your phone on the dash, in a closed car, at the sun? Especially the black version of Xperia? Black color is the color that accumulates the heat from sun the most, which results in your Xperia just toasting inside. I cannot imagine how hot it become on the inside and outside. Software might not help with this, you might have simply melted some connections or something like that...

Can I know which rom version you are using right now ? Because before I update my D6503 to 402 , I also have the same problem. But it's not about heat I guess. If you have ever run any huge 3D game under hot sun, then see how hot the body can be. It still work fine in that situation . So try to update it to last version and see how it going ?

You left device fragile like this in a car on a bright sun in the middle of the summer and you are disappointed?

You can't do that with electronic, there's battery in it, million connectors and sensitive parts...
It's interesting how Sony/Samsung/HTC are always blamed for absolutely everything..
Lay your head on dashboard for a few hours on sunny day like that day was and we'll see how will you handle that...

I'm not trying to say Z2 couldn't be colder when it's working but would like you to do same test with S5 or m8 and post results...
Problem isn't in 60-70C temperature, problem is because car become an owen and keep temperature at 60,70 maybe even hoter for hours...

You want heat? Come on down to my neck of the woods in Thailand... Its so hot here, you sweat taking a shower. Any event. Direct sunlight magnifies several degrees hotter when penetrating curved glass such as that of a windshield. I'm surprised the phone didn't melt away

Clearly you can't read. The phone is certified to withstand water correct. Water does not mean heat. Heat and water are two different things. Google them and you will see as it seems you have a difficulty with understanding the difference.
Disappointed? That's user error. Not the phones fault. You should have not left it in the heat. The phone can't walk or go somewhere else.
If you want something that works in heat get a Nokia brick or something.
Sense these days is uncommon now.

it was about half an hour to 40 mins the phone was in this temp .. god forbid any one that buy this phone in a warmer climate than the UK on a warm day then ! funny thought ... the phone manufactures themselves ARE in a LOT hotter climates than the UK sorry but a phone should have tolerances built in .. if you can only use a device between certain temps or conditions . not a lot of good to average man that need a phone they can rely on wherever they are and what conditions

Haha....
Well....I must admit you are right in some way...and I'm very happy Sony is working on overheating problem.
But, if you don't install air-conditioned back cover - try to move your device from direct sun.
When I'm in the car, I never put my device(s) "on sun" - that's just not smart thing to do..

Nah for that he'll have to place the fone in front of the Walkie Talkie building here in London. That building melts cars parked in front of it.

Hi All!!
Most of us dream of getting a top premium phone. But then this dream becomes a nightmare when the phone doesn't work as per our expectations. We start doubting our decision on whether the correct decision was made or not about purchasing the phone.
I don't know about the others but I went through the similar emotions in the past 3 days.
I bought S22+ through Flipkart BBD sale. The phone looked gorgeous when it was unboxed. Since the time I switched on the phone until yesterday, I observed the phone getting warm. Whether I use Camera for 5 mins or be on a phone call, the phone was constantly touching 40-41degrees. I realised that returning the phone is not an option due to the issue I reported. So, very hesitantly I took the phone to service center. Experience there was awesome. The rep was very assuring and said that this may happen if there is some issue with the batch file. He asked me to wait for 20 mins so that they will download the entire phone software again at one go. It was done. The phone is under observation and there is no heating seen as of now be it usage of camera or phone call. Phone temp not crossing 35 deg and the back pannel is relatively cool now. So in case if you are facing the issue, please visit the service center and get the software downloaded again. Hope this will help. I will share my observations soon.
Phone still hitting 41 deg when the camera is in use. Rest everything is fine. Battery, I would say is ok for me as I am not a heavy user.
Checked for software udate and Installed the Sep 1 security patch like 5 mins ago.
Will update soon.
Facing the same issue. Device starts heating even in light usage. Already installed latest software update but no luck!
Bought in BBD sale.

I understand how heartbreaking it is. Spending so much money and then facing the heating issue. My suggestion is visit the service center and ask them to download the software again. But then don't update it with the Sep 1st security patch. Use it for couple of days and observe and then download the patch. Also avoid playing heavy duty games on it. If it gets warm, just put it aside.
28th Sep
Phone is running just fine. Watching videos does drains the battery out but there is no warm feeling. Recorded videos for 7 mins and the phone felt pretty normal. No heat. I will continue to test the same.
29th Sep update
I installed additional work profile in the phone around 8 AM. When the profile was getting set up, the phone was heating a bit. I let it cool down for a bit. Then for the next couple of hours the phone was constantly hitting 35-36 degree even though there was no application running in the background. So after 5 hours of observation I uninstalled the work profile. It's 40 mins now and phone is resting at good 28 degrees.
Can you tell me which country your phone is made in. Mine is made in Korea and it doesn't heat up.
Also did your phone came with wrap on frame? Mine didn't. I bought from Samsung app a month ago.
Why are you so worried about 35°?
Its normal.
I reside in India and the phone is made in India. I wonder how you got Made in Korea. Where did you purchase your phone from?
No, my phone didn't come with wrap up frame.
Yup. 35° is fine. On my other device even if the the temp goes up to 37° it's still cool. But on this device I have seen phone heating up even at 35°. So, yes, it's a concern for me. I also know may be becuae of the processor or battery it's happening. But that should not happen in the first place as you said it's not happening with your device.
May be we can catch up sometime as I am from the same city, you are from.

Bought S22 plus by exchanging S20 plus on Samsung Shop.(app)
I'm actually from Warangal. Are you sure it's made in India?
Maybe thats why the discounted price, bcoz of the less tax.
I got my S22+ by exchanging my S21FE about a month back, on the back of the box it says Made in Korea and it has never heated I use the Dev check app to monitor for thermals and after prolonged phone calls or video calls or even binge watching movies on OTT, the max I have ever seen is 36-37 degrees

Maybe they discontinued that exchange offer.
Gave me 30k for S20Plus and 2k for using app.
End price was 53K.

i have been checking it for the last few months but it's not showing. my s20 plus got a display issue n decided to exchange it..i think new phones are made in India only..i have asked Samsung why they r mentioned Korea and sent an Indian-made one. even though no difference btw them
I remember the threads about the HTC One M9 "overheating" because of how the SD810 was designed (actually normal temperatures for that specific SOC). People were drenching the SOC in non-conductive thermal paste. It actually kinda worked.
You can't really do anything about it. The bigger problem is that the S22 is both poorly optimized and overheating.
Just as a simple benchmark test (not taking in consideration the Exynos version, becuase it's so far left behind it doesn't even matter anymore) of some SD 8g1 phones.
SG S22/S22+/S22 Ultra: 912K Antutu
Moto Edge 30 Pro: 1040K Antutu
Xiaomi 12 Pro: 1070K Antutu
"We start doubting our decision on whether the correct decision was made or not about purchasing the phone."
No, it really wasn't. It's an overpriced phone that they didn't even bother to properly optimize. In terms of performance it's a whole mid range phone behind the competition.
I don't like to be so negative, but there isn't anything positive to say. I like my Note 9, but it's clear that it's missing some basic features that other phones have by default.
Update - My phone was at the service center for close to 4 days for observation. They recorded 30 mins video and the phone temp went up to 40° via the heat gun. This time the phone was not that hot even at 40°. What the manager said is that if the phone hits 47°+ then probably there is a scope of exchange.
I didn't argue much as everything seemed to be normal when they even checked the phone via some tool they had.
Have been using the phone for 2 days now and it ok now. Not much of heating.
And yeah, Battery is also fine.
Note: I am not a heavy phone user. Hardly plays any game. Uses phone for routine calls and some photography.

My S20 plus had green line issue.
Service center denied free display replacement.
Lodged a complaint in consumer court and Samsung CEO help desk.
Samsung gave my phone new screen with frame at a cost of 700₹ labor charge.
I immediately checked for exchange on Amazon, Flipkart and did't find good deals.
Checked Samsung site. There was an exchange offer until August 31.
Grabbed the deal.

Don't believe the numbers from benchmark apps. Some leading phone manufactures are making the phone to perform without throttling when benchmark apps like Antutu or Geekbench etc. are run. This was proved and accepted by few manufactures. My S22+ heated only once and shown a message "your phone is too hot. let it cool down before using multi window again" and the multi window has been closed. That time I was playing a high end game along with using google meet video call opened in PIP. battery was decent I can say. I play games a lot

Yes, Samsung is known to boost performance when it detects benchmarking apps. A developer working at Citra made a build which makes Android think it's actually running Antutu.
Even so, even with the benhc boost, Samsung is still scoring far lower in benchmarks. Samsung is doing the same thing as everybody else and still failing at doing it properly.

I have purchased s22 plus from an official samsung store in India. I had some heating concerns but I went with it because the experience was awesome. I have not faced any heating issue what so ever. Phone do tend to get heated occasionally and many factors are involved including the surrounding temperature. I had an Iphone 12, that would also get a bit hot while charging. Nothing to report in this case, my unit is working fine.
May be they have worked on the optimization. Battery life is also fine thanks to Snapdragon although 8 gen1 is still not as efficient as some previous iterations but still much better than what I had faced with Exynos. The phone has a large excellent display that will take a but more battery of course as compared to a smaller phone but even with 120hz, it is taking me through the whole day easily. Second 50 percent of the battery percentage is where phone pulls up better screen on time.
There is no way to make the s22+ not heat. At least the units sold in India. Gaming or using camera for more than 5 mins will make it heat up. No matter what you do. I got the phone in BBD sale. Got it exchanged from flipkart too and the second unit also had heating issues. Luckily I am a business user to I don't spend much time playing games or camera, so the issue is barely noticeable in day to day usage to me. But if I go out on a weekend trip, where I will take lots of pics and videos, I know this phone is going to get hot and loose a lot of battery. So I carry powerbank for the situation. Before this I was using Realme GT Neo 2 and that phone never heated up even if video in 4k was recorded for 30 mins straight. I never felt the need to carry powerbank with me too plus realme had 67w fast charging. I just bought this phone cause of samsung name
