in short i forgot my s3 in the car and it was damn hot...i came back to find it over heating and in boot loop.after it cooled down it was back to normal except now i have heat problem when i use the net or play a game...the question is was its exposure to over heat the cause of ruining something?

More likely the temp inside the car.
Did you also have it also connected on charge?

I don't think it should never reach 40 celcius temperature as mine doesn't feel even warm when I play sone heavy games.

It definitely will get hot, I remember watching my son at swimming lessons last week.
I am in Bangkok and was outside using the phone extensively on 3G data, ambient temp 35+ Celsius. Can't remember exactly how hot the battery got, but sure out read well into the 40s.
Didn't have any hardware or software issues though.
As far as exchange goes, you could try, but they may reject the claim as you most likely were operating the device outside it's design limits.
From the Pg 172 of the GT-I9300 User Manual: http://downloadcenter.samsung.com/content/UM/201206/20120613110217963/GT-I9300_UM_EU_Icecream_Eng_Rev.1.0_120607_Screen.pdf
Do not store your device in very hot or very cold areas. Use your
device at temperatures from -20 °C to 50 °C
• Your device can explode if left inside a closed vehicle, as the internal
temperature can reach up to 80 °C.
• Do not expose your device to direct sunlight for extended periods of time
(on the dashboard of a car, for example).
• Store the battery at temperatures from 0 °C to 40 °C.

All hardware is not exactly the same, so your device may be less torelant to excessive heat than others or vice versa.

Overheating will cause bootloops. I used to use my phone at work as a wife hotspot because it was faster than our work net. I plugged it in and it would always die after two hours from overheating. Finally rigged up a way to keep it in the freezer lol

Based on what you said, all seems back to normal.
To summarise;
It WILL heat up, depending on environmental conditions and also your using habits. CPU and GPU intensive apps and time spent on this state, and also general use whilst charging etc will heat it up.

+1 to the "It's fine"
Pull out the battery, there it'll list a safe operating temperature. The battery in my phone is "Safe" up to 60c, but it probably shuts itself off at around 55ish. 45 is nothing to a phone, so don't worry.
You're probably just being paranoid, paying super close attention to any kind of "Warm" after the overheating incident. It was probably reaching those same temps prior to leaving it in the car.
Hell, I left my Evo 3D (Super famous for overheating) on my black leather seats, in the summer, plugged in, and GPS running, for an hour or so. It shut itself off and wouldn't turn on for 45ish mins while I let it cool down... And it's running just fine now. Lol

Even tho Skimminstones' reply was funny as hell ....
49 *is* pretty damn hot. Anything over 40 and I start to worry a bit, which does happen occasionally with some kernel betas, especially early on after that initial flash/till you do a couple of charge/discharge/reboot cycles. Running a kernel script before you flash the kernel tends to make this less of a problem I've found.
I'm running an early (stable) version of Siyah and I find the average temp of the device with light/no use is 23-25, moderate use is 25-27, 27-31 with heavy use (all dependant on ambient temp), and it sometimes gets up to 36-37 when charging, more so when the battery has less charge (say less than 40% or so). The temperature gradually drops as the battery charges & returns to "normal".
Without knowing what your setup is (i.e kernel, rom, etc), its hard to say what might be causing this.
But as far as I'm concerned, 49 is *not* normal.

You mean the sexy body or the temperature
For the temperature, it is quite high for me also. Especially around the camera cover, All of people I know have this high heat also.
Never measure by numbers..So I don't know about that
Phone used to get hot on stock roms but thats it
Mine runs very cool with my Anker battery. Never gets hot.
Hey guys!
I have a problem.. whenever I use mobile data for half an hour or more, my battery temperature rises significantly. From 32 degrees centigrade to 50 degrees centigrade. The back side bottom part of my phone heats up! Is this normal? I have attached screen shots please help me out!
P.s. is my battery backup fine?
Scree on time is 3.5 hours
Mine warms up to that temp and even a little more whilst gaming or heavy use as well.
You can get a mesh vent case that should dissipate the heat better, but that high a temperature is still definitely unusual.
Does your phone heat up to 50 degrees centigrade after just half an hour of continuous use?

I found that disabling HSPDA and HSPDA+ while surfing prevents the phone from overheating a little.
Could it be you got a pretty weak signal? Maybe try to change modem, mine gets a bit warm at heavy gaming (about 40°), but not at basic things like the xda app.

I am pretty sure he actually means room not rom, as in it wasn't a typo And the answer to that would be the radiation from the sun or a heater Like for me, I live in the UK and it is the middle of summer and it is 13 degrees C out side, so my phone doesn't get that hot, but if it was 30 degrees out side (not in the UK obviously) the phone would be a lot hotter before you start using it.

I installed wathdog..how can i find if there is any rogue app? I don't even know what that means..
When i installed the litening v3.2 on my phone i put it charge on the night and when i checked it in morning it was hot as the hell and showed like 50% of a battery. I dont know what is was but it was just in one night.
OK - I'm a Brit living in Saudi. Here, it is usually above 40C most of the year, with excess of 50C during some months. Everybody loves their mobile gadgets AND all the gadgets work - surprise surprise.
Recently, my wife left her SII on a wet table - nothing too drastic; i.e. water barely leaked into the battery compartment. Shock horror - now, it is unusable for more than 10 seconds at a time, due to the heat generated by the battery - not due to the USB charger.
I think all the SII units short themselves out quickly with dense water vapour, or a bit of rain. They continue to work, but overheat (due to the short circuit).
At least, this is my experience of the SII - otherwise, an excellent phone.
I haven't used it heavily today, nor very recently, but the battery is up to 100℉ degrees right now. It's a pretty nice (read: comfortable) temperature in the house too.
So I have to wonder just how hot the One is going to get when summer rolls around and it's in the 90s℉.
I'm not worried about it right now, but for those of you in climates that are hot already, how is your phone holding up?
FWIW: the aluminum must disperse the heat pretty well. The temp dropped by 3 degrees while composing this message. So that's pretty nice.

It is kinda a valid question. My Lumia 920 would get so hot that if I made a call, it wasn't comfortable near my ear. It has been in the 80's here, and no problems as of yet. I have noticed that for some reason on both of my devices, the app Viber heats them up quick, that's the only one I have seen do this.
Unless you plan on leaving it on your dash, it won't matter too much. Its not a PC in a hot room.

When these new high end phones get hot (I think the One is an internal temp above 34C) they start to under clock the processor and the GPU.

All electronics are affected by heat..but if this is any indication,,,,it will be warm..but not enough to fry an egg on!

When you play games the phone gets very hot but so does sgs4. In fact every android phone and I had a lot of them got hot when playing games except note 2.
Room/outside temperature doesn't affect the phone temp? So if it's 90 degrees in your room your phone will battery temp will be 74 like it would be on a 70-75 degree day?

Your phone comes with built in protection to throtle down the CPU when it gets too hot in order to avoid frying it. With that mod what you did was to tell the phone to forget about throtling down and to simply run as fast as it needs to no matter the temp. This makes it a lot harder for the phone to cool down on its own (since the CPU is still producing a lot of heat) and I guess I don't have to tell you how bad heat can be for electronics...

I feel sorry for all the Sprint employees and LG for the users that blindly turn off thermal throttling, having no clue what it does, and then blame the phone for being defective.

Even when I punish this phone it just gets slower, never really hot at all. I used to be afraid of burning my hands on my SGS II, but this never gets hot enough for me to worry at all.
So if my G2's cpu gets to 70 degrees and battery about 43 degrees in 10 minutes of playing gtasa, is that bad enough for service?

You know my phone got really hot with my 3 to old playing Angry Birds Go the other day and I was pretty sure this had something to do with it. The only thing is that the way this is worded is confusing as heck. Do I need to have this switch in the on or off position? High temperature property off? Seems like the ON position is correct so it will throttle down the CPU accordingly.
