Hot phone? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

I'm using a charger from my HTC phone and the note is getting hot....is it the charger or the fact I'm using it while being charged.

Mine heats up if used while charging.

I believe my skyrocket and ogs2 did also.

You are creating heat by using the battery as well as more heat by the cpu working. Pushing power into the phone just makes it hotter

Had that happen, I suggest either use the phone while off the charger or leave it on the charger with minimal use until fully charged.

Not something to worry about I use mine on the charger as well and it heats up over 100 degrees which the phone should be about 80 to 85 standard use. So if in car put it over the conditioning cold air when using which In my case cools the phone very well. If no cold air then I would limit use until charged.

120°F degrees is unusually hot. I get up to 105°F while charging and that's on a hot ~95°F day.
Check your task manager to see if there's anything using CPU. That kind of heat can also be caused if you're using data to download stuff while charging.

r u over clocking?
thats probably why, but 120? should never reach THAT high.
Mine reached 140 once... it felt so hot!

Mine gets very hot, I've seen 120°F and higher, when using it while charging. If left alone, it does not heat up.

Using Phone While Charging

Rom: Euphoria 2.1
Kernel: Kiss 8.2
The problem I'm having is that while charging the phone and using it, the phone gets really hot. My battery temps are 107.6*F I'm assuming this will damage my battery pretty soon. How can I prevent this? Should I just not use the phone while on the charger??

Buddy this is normal.don't worry.my country weather is really hot.even on normal use i.e., at the time when it is not charging, my phone really gets hot. But i am using it for over a year with no damage yet.battery doesn't get too much hot but actually cpu does. Chill and use your phone add you like. It is made this way.

It's not totally impossible that they all could have an issue. Are you charging them using a charger and leaving them on it for extended periods of time? That's a killer for lithium ion batteries.

Also, what kind of charger are you using to charge them?

That could be part of your problem too. It's best to use an HTC charger for an HTC phone because they circuitry is designed to charge HTC batteries. It's best not to mix an match them. The amperage could be different.

Well I thought by leaving it on the charger till it turn green I unplugged it but the most it goes to is 70%,can't even calibrate it
Sent from my ADR6400L using xda app-developers app
It's been proven calibration doesn't help. I can even attest to that. Try letting the battery drain completely. Then charge it full while it is off. Then disconnect the battery cable and reconnect it and let it charge to green. Let it sit for 20 more minutes. Or charge fully and reboot your phone.

You need an HTC charger my friend. Charger voltage matters.

I've tried that and will try again but while charging it while its off, a hr goes by and the orange light still on never gets to green, thanks for the feed back appreciate it

I've got the same problem. I bought the wife a tbolt off craigslist cuz she liked mine. It won't charge past 3900 mv. I can take my fully charged battery from mine and put it in hers. It'll show like 30 percent charge and 3900 mv on battery widget. Even tried a power mat in case it was a USB port problem to no evail. Different roms, differnet batteries, differnt chargers
If I knew what was malfunctioning I could change it out with a parts phone I have but don't know where to start
Extended batteries typically don't show the correct percentage. The thunderbolt wasn't designed for them so they don't always show correctly. Once it shows full reboot. After you reboot and charge to full do it again. Do it until you reboot AMD it stays the same. If it doesn't the battery is probably bad. You can check the battery condition in your settings about phone.

Battery Discharging

My battery discharges whenever I use my phone while charging it. Any help?

As in, it gets to a certain percentage level and then plateaus? Or does it simply not charge up at all?
It only discharges when am using it while charging it but when am I leave it to charge on its own without using it, it charges very well. Any idea?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
Seems to me like whatever you're using or running while it's charging might be negating the charging taking place, due to the amount of battery it's taking to run it.
If you're on WiFi or something while it's charging, I could potentially see how the output/input in terms of voltage could become stagnant or even decrease. Obviously just a theory, but I would say the energy your phone is using to run the task (ex: WiFi) is the same or even less than what it's drawing for energy to charge.. depending on what you're running, of course. Therefore, if you aren't using the phone (thus you're not "pulling" energy), it charges fine.
I don't think anything strange is going on here, but I could certainly be totally wrong - who knows.
I use internet while charging but anyways thanks for that.

Battery charging really slow

After 2 months I finally got s off via Windows 8 and usb 2. So I installed nusensesix Rom and I noticed the battery was charging really slowly, so I installed insert coin instead. Battery charged even slower. As you can see in the screenshot attached the battery is just a mess and for some reason never went above 50%. I calibrated the battery more than once for each install. This phones battery was already bad and know it's even worst. And I'm using the stock cable but not a stock adapter.
Use the stock adapter. Chances are the one your using isn't putting out as much power causing slower charging.

Then find another adapter and see if it still does it.
