Are you using a case? What's the temperature like in your location?
My SGS3 also usually gets heated up to 32°c without any usage. When I use my phone for 45 mins straight, my device heats up to 49°c. Btw I'm using an Azmer silicone case.

I didn't use any case. I hate this..
I have this problem since I made a update to firmware LF2 and even i come back to LE8 , I have ever the problem...
Before, my phone could down to 25°C when i didn't use my phone...
But here.. when I use it 5 mins, it's very on the left bottom... (near the micro sdcard)
I have changed now for a new kernel Siyah.. but the problem is also here...

Although the phone becoming warm at the lower back is common, I suggest you take it to your nearest service centre and get it checked since you are telling that just after 5mins of use the device is getting heated up. I'm sure if there is any defects in your battery it will be replaced.

It must be a defective unit. Don't worry Samsung can replace it for you.

New GS2 gets extremely hot while charging

Well I just got a new GS2 from Vodafone in Australia, I havent really used it much since I got it a few days ago because it wasnt activated yet, but now it has and I put it on charger and it gets extremely hot, I downloaded battery monitor and the temperature was in the 50s (Celsius)!
I just put it down for a while and it cooled right off so maybe it only gets extremely hot while charging and being used?

It's normal that a phone gets warm, but it isn't normal that it gets really hot. Don't flash anything and bring it back for exchange or repair.

Mine has gotten pretty warm playing games while charging in the summer, although not too hot to hold comfortably. Now it's winter and it barely gets warm doing the same.
So unless yours gets too hot to hold I'd say it's within the norm, but just to clarify, does it get hot just from charging or are you using CPU intensive apps at the same time?

change the kernel
Use a kernel that supports Under Clocking (Siyah or DK)
and use Set Cpu to set Profiles
Set Profile Charging to 200:500
And Done no more Heat Issues
My GS2 never had hot problem other than when I used 3G alot, it is NDT MIUI GINGER 2.3.7.
Don't use it for intensive purposes such as gaming when charging. Browsing, e-mail and youtube should be fine.
It does get very hot when you charge and play a 3D-intensive game at the same time.
While charging and just basic use like Facebook and stuff it got up to 51 but as soon as I put it down within 5-10 minutes it was back under 40. Is the problem most likely the battery or phone?
Also I wanted to stay stock but I guess if this gets worst.ill have to root it.

Get Voltage control from the market and undervolt, it wells keep the phone temp down.
Hopefully you are rooted
Im not rooted, just on stock still.
Also with the update it seems to be getting a bit better, I was playing Minecraft while charging to see if it got hot, as well as some other games and it stayed at around 36 which isnt too bad is it?
Also dont know if it is just my new Sammy or all S2s but my screen isnt very bright at full brightness, and it is sort of dark like contrasted, again it might just be how its meant to look I'm not sure, just want to make sure theres nothing wrong while Its still new on warranty!

Dude people telling you that a boiling hot phone with stock are freaking nuts.No stock kernel should reach 50 DEG. ever althought 2.3.4 was well known for over heating problems and thats why with 2.3.5 you have noticed a drop to 36 which is quite acceptable but keep and eye on it cos the more apps you download the more it could rise cos the more apps there will be open in the back ground.As for the screen in my opinion,no its not normal.Ive flashed various kernels and when Ive flashed a bad one my screen has lost brightness and the whites have gone from white to almost a light brown or light grey and when I reflashed a new kernel to fix the problem my screen became bright and the whites glowed like super bright white.I beleive you have a kernel problem and if you can handle being without your phone a while then make use of your warranty and try to get it changed using this info to convince the service centre you have a faulty kernel.Its the best thing you can do if you want to stay on stock.

Thanks for that mate yeah I remember hearing about the awesome s2 screen and then i wasn't that impressed but i think it might be mine!
Problem is i don't know if i have enough evidence for warranty.
Maybe i should just go root, but then if the overheating gets worst is it easy to go back to stock for warranty?
One last thing, so you think its a kernel problem? Will changing kernels completely fix the issue if it is a kernel problem?

If you want to root and give it a try`Id recommend a CF-Root kernel as they are basically stock rooted kernels just pimped up a bit and very simple to install and easy on your phone and battery.If you want to unroot you just reflash the stock kernel.Always advisable to buy a USB jig from ebay if you are going to start flashing.They cost around 2 to 5 bucks depending on where you live and it will clear your bin counter which counts the number of times you flash your phone.If you send it of under warranty and the counter is not at zero then the warranty is void.Good trick to know.
EDIT:Then again you could say that your phone reboots itself once a day so you think it might have a problem.They will send it of and most probably reflash the firmware and therefore the kernel alsnly problem is its a long time without your phone when you could do it at home yourself.But then again thats what a warranty is for if you want to stay stock.
Max brightness, charging, and playing a stressful game like gta 3 would put the phone at its hottest; in fact the firmware inn running disallows max brightness whilst on charge. I'd check Kies for an update; if it continues, go straight back and replace.
Also a case can help dissipate heat, or opposite, depending on material.

Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100

Hello everybody. As you can see I am new here. Sorry if i shouldnt post here.
I got a battery issue on my galaxy s2. I got it 2 weeks ago.
I got of the battery to 40%, then I turned the phone off to clean the interior a little, but when I got the battery back and turned the phone on, i saw that it dropped from 40% to 28%. I was shocked. Why is that? Is there any fix for this?
I will attach a screen capture for you to see. (the yellow part at the end).
Cheers,
GanTre

use the phone and the battery will recalibrate itself .
clean ??? water in the phone ??? leaking electric during clean up

Water? Of course not, just cleaning, normal cleaning. Its a electric device. I am noob with smartphones, but i am not an idiot .
Recalibrate? Why it has to recalibrate?
I am very mad because I just lost more 12% percent of my battery for.. nothing?!

You can only lose 12% by you doing something wrong .

Im glad someone understands me. I like to keep things clean in general, not only the expensive things.
Read very slowly
You lost battery 12% when you cleaned you did nothing but cleaqn .
So the act of cleaning drained the battery .
jje
Yeah, that happens when you reboot for some reason... its quite annoying. In actuality you don't lose any % at all; it just appears that way. As JJEgan said the battery will re calibrate itself, you don't have to do anything. It will automatically re correct and show the proper value.
Stop being an annoying guy. I cleaned the phone from dust, not from applications ffs.
TTandroidguy, thanks!
no prob. did it go back up or did you put it to charge straight away?
It happened around 17:00 pm, and I charged the battery at 23 pm, i saw that the battery recovers, like jje said. The phone was siting on the table at 28%, when i switched the screen on(about 30 mins later), it was at 34, so the battery recovers.

Is there any overheating issue in S3?

Guys, I am planning to buy a Galaxy S3 but a friend of mine who owned an s3 told me that it generates a lot of amount of heat.. Can anyone please confirm or deny the issue?
Thanks!
Deny.
jje
but if your s3 is placed in the sun it is getting very hot and it will reboot by itself.
happend to me. i had to pull out the battery to stop the re-re-reboot process
I have yet to feel any significant heat on the S3, even while charging. My S2 on the other hand would get warm frequently but it never bothered me.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
It overheats with the overheat app it comes with. I managed to bake a potato in one full charge.
Compared to my old HOX, the SIII is a fridge.
It warms up ever so slightly if you run some benchmarks on it but its the equivelant temperature to breathing on your own hand.

Today while charging the phone I dropped it in a bag of unpopped kettles. Guess what I have now. Popcorn. Boy does this phone overheat.
Yeah, I was just confirming if it was a fluke. According to him the phone even overheats while making call which IMO is not possible.
YES
OK this sucks.
Years ago, I got the Iphone 4 and you had to put a cover on it because of the antenna issue.
I get the S3 and to protect it, i get a cover and within no time, after putting it on the phone, the phone overheats, locks up, lags,
If i am charging it, it locks up. I was driving shortly after i put the case on, and it kept making noise but i was driving so i couldnt look at the phone. then once i got home. i noticed it locking up and really warm, bottom right hand corner.
This really sucks as i love the phone but I do know, overheating like this is not good for electronics and will lessen their lifespan.
anyone else having cover issues?

It gets rather warm when it running stuff that puts quite some load on CPU, GPU whateverPU, yah, but not to an extend where one could call it "overheat".
So far it's always been below 50°C - I think that's a "no" on the original question.

[Q] How do i fix this?

My i9300 all of a sudden stops charging.
I disassembled it and the next day decided to plug it in again. It charged up until 48%, when i plugged it out for use again.
Now, one day later it again won't charge... weird?
I'm trying to buy a usb port connector and want to replace it as i think the problem lies there, but how do i do this?
All the youtube video's are only replacing the simple stuff.
I have tried using another battery + batterycharger, this is not the problem. The phone still doesn't charge. I really suspect there is oxidation inside the USB connector.
Hope there's anybody who can help with replacing it.
should be the cable problem? many cases on this!
If you don't know any better about hardware, why don't you just buy an additional battery and battery charger... through could be little bit inconvenient

Galaxy S3 bug
May be this is a bug of galaxy s3
even i have a galaxy s3 with jelly bean installed in it from factory, i connected it with my laptop and it was working normally but after 2-3 days i noticed that my device was unable to connect via usb so i flashed it and factory resetted my divice and bam ! it was back to normal, may be you can give it a shot

Thanks but this isn't the case with me. I really suspect there is oxidation inside the USB connector. So could anyone help with how to replace this? I live in the Netherlands.
You said you dissembled it, you have enough knowledge about it?
I don't have much myself too but I tried my hands on my older devices in many cases, so I can only suggest you that the charging point which is a usb port would be connected to your pcb which needs to be disconnected with the help of an soldering iron and then you can replace it with a new one. However do it only if you have subsequent knowledge.
Also before trying anything try more chargers, I came to know that none of the generic and few original ones couldn't charge mine too. Check for their voltage.

alright, thanks for the reply. But my device is flashed around 1000 times and it looks like i opened beercans with it. So this would not create a healthy warranty argument i guess. This is why i'm trying to do it myself.
Now all of a sudden it charges again, when i left it at the charger... so definately no charger problem. maybe oxidation/waterdamage from raindrops?

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 ?

I didn't want to say this but... your phone is alive. Kill it before it lays eggs.

Don't want to sound rude...but you are disappointed?
You left device fragile like this in a car on a bright sun in the middle of the summer and you are disappointed?
Mate...I didn't do such stupid things with Samsung 5610, 8 years ago...
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...

There's heat then there's HEAT. Your car is an oven and you screwed up.

Guys obviously can't realised how hot could dashboard be...
(great link, mate - it's incredibly how hot can it be)
My buddy had car with a leather seats, in a middle of the summer he left his car on a direct sun for hours.
Believe it or not, when he sit in a shorts, he fried his legs and end up in a hospital...
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.
