[Q] Another phone getting hot thread

Ok, I can't put my finger on to the reason my phone is getting hot - no other temp threads I could find covered it.
It's 6 months old and it just started happening.
Build: FRG83 v 2.2.1
Power off, place in cradle - charges fine - stays cool.
Applied power (while in cradle) - stayed cool - battery was 100% already - woke up this morning after 6 hours and it was hot.
Pulled battery out, let sit until cool. Put in and powered - now is running cool.
Yesterday I picked it up and for no reason (that I could tell), it was hot and chewing through the battery.
Uninstalled all recently installed apps (don't have much on it right now)
I don't use exchange for mail (just gmail).
Has anyone else seen this odd behavior. There has to be some rhyme or reason to this. I'll keep uninstalling apps, but I'm not seeing anything running that is unusual...
Thx for any help
-P

Contacting HTC for a new device wouldn't be a terrible idea, since it seems that everything is darn near stock and not your fault.

I did think of that, but am having trouble believing that it is a hardware problem...
Kinda my fall back plan...

Did you try to run something like SystemPanel and see if there's any app that has your Nexus running at 100% speed all the time?

Ahh, nice app - never saw that...
I'll monitor it now - it started getting hot again then it cooled off. Said it was 32C - but nothing out of the ordinary was running... (Except amazon mp3 - not sure why it is out there, I wish I could make that go away)...

You can't make Amazon stop, you have to uninstall it (which is possible if you're rooted).
See what the frequency is - if it's idling around 300 MHz, you're ok.

Yeah, I know about the amazon thing...
Weird - started talking on the phone and it got hot (and sucked serious power) - ended call and now it's cool again.
Every time I go and look at CPU use it's low (starts high as I switch task but then drops to almost nothing which I would expect)

It might be a crappy battery.

I'm trying to figure out why the CPU would get hot if the battery is bad... Temp is definitely coming from the case below the battery in the trackball area...
I have a lot of experience with LiPo's - usually takes much higher A rates to get them to heat up - we aren't even draining them at .5C.
Now, this battery did come from the wife's N1 - but this problem did not coincide with the swap...

Only time I feel the area around the trackball heating up (the CPU) is when I'm doing something intensive, and not that often. Did System Panel show anything was using CPU? You could also watch top in a term or via adb, and watch for network traffic.
You have a rogue app or bad hardware. Have you tried doing a factory reset and seeing if it also happens? Are you using a stock ROM? You mention the ROM in the OP but there are a lot of custom ROMs that are of that build.

This is a stock 2.2.1 on unmodified hardware.
I swapped batteries back and still get the same thing.
I was obviously thinking rogue app, but I don't see anything running that is 'bad'... Also it is hard to tell from the aforementioned app what the CPU is really doing when it's going crazy, as the CPU spikes when switching to the app and then settles back down to 200-300 MHz...
The other weird thing is that it seems to get really warm when charging off the PC now (didn't look close at system details at that point - was the other day)... Not even having the SD card mounted...
Will see what top shows next time I have it plugged in.
No, didn't do a factory reset yet. Was hoping to find the culprit first, but it's not looking good...

[Q] Battery charging paused by too high or low temperature

Hi,
I've tried to search for a solution but haven't find any. You know there is a message when battery temperature gets too high then charging stops. The popup message is very very annoying: I use navigation and blackbox while driving. And when this message comes I have to press OK, and 5 secs after it appears again... very very annoying.
I agree with not to overheat the battery but why not just stop charging without this message? Is there any trick to eliminate this? In summer time and sunny days this msg comes very often. I have to place a piece of plastic to car's ventillation hole to minimizing the chance of this msg.
I don't care if it's charging or not, I just don't want to see this msg.
Please help if you have any idea!
I'm on stock JVR now, rooted, underclocked @ 800MHz. Other ROMs (CM7, MIUI) just stops carging without any message.

Had the same problem awhile back,reflash jvr, and dont use undervolting/overclocking programs/kernels.

+1 Dont OC/uV too much.

My apologies guys, but please read: I don't use OC/UV, I use stock and underclock.
With normal use and simple charging everything goes well but under heavy use I get this message while charging. Under heavy use I mean navigation, blackbox, and of course phone is at the windscreen while heated by the sun. The phone's glass is hot. It's normal of course because I use CPU intensive apps.
I repeat: I don't care about charging or not, just want this message to be disappeared.

I just unplug mine from the charger when this pops up. It happens with me in exactly the same circumstances. GPS navigation, dashboard of the car, and bright sunny days, it's not an overclock issue, just high ambient heat source, high cpu usage plus charging.
I also find it's aggravated by the silicon skin case I use.

Yes I'm doing the same as workaround. But other ROMs just stop charging and continue when phone cooled down without any message. It would be very nice to just remove this message by a script or editing a script or something else (I'm not a dev just an "I-like-to-hack" power user).

DO your devices get extremely hot at all? Mine did ,to the point that it was to too hot to handle, im surprised the dam thing did not exploded.
As for removing the message i have not a clue how too, i do know however that is is triggered by the thermal sensors.
I can also recall this happening with my windows mobile devices a few times,this happened when the gps services were stuck working in the background.
In all occasions the only fix a found was to re flash the rom.

No, it's not too hot, it's just warm enough. I don't say it's abnormal because in direct sunlight while charging and using cpu intensive apps it's normal. Just try to figure out is there any chance to do this all without this message...
Ok, I'll wait for someone who knows something or know someone who has seen someone who know something...

Referring to other threads I'm not the only one with this problem and not SGS is the only one with this problem.
While this message is not needed and has no function it has to be eliminated some way because tapping OK is very disturbing while driving/navigating/etc...
Script? Kernel patch/hack? Something? If some ROMs can do it (like MIUI) there must be a way to have it disappeared...

I had the same problem with a Galaxy S II today. First, it began to warn me that was starting charging. And 1 second later it warn the Power Saving was activated and the charger was turned off.
Later, it said 'Charging pause. Voltage too high'. When I've tried to power off the phone, it was powering on by itself.
During the morning, I've used the phone to consume battery. At the afternoon, I put it via USB cable and it seems the problem is solved, for now.
I'm using the ICS ROM beta, by Samsung, have some days.

Phone Whirring and then Shut Off

Hello Everyone! My phone has been wonky and I gotta know why
SO my N6 likes to shut off in the middle of doing something, most notably using google maps and the camera, I did some searching and someone suggested its related to the phone using apps that require location (Google Maps GPS / Google Camera Save Location Option), but there wasn't much input on that thread. Have any of you encountered anything like this yourselves? My phone would whir after opening Maps or after taking a picture from Camera (the whir sounds like its coming from near the top part of the phone btw) and then it would shut off, anyone have any clues as to what's the problem?

Yup same here for a long time. It's not related to location.
It's definitely something with voltage and battery.
I'm compiling my kernel and I've tried many things.
1/ Bcl needs to be on.
2/It's happening only on high cpu load. And so with camera and gps active.
Because those will use more voltage from our poor Motorola battery.
Using os monitor I've see my battery go to 3800mv from 3500 without big problem but clearly below 3600 there's a chance for the phone to shut down as you describe the thing.
Bcl start limiting and hotpluging core when battery reach 3800mv.
The default value is 1.9 ghz
But on stock kernel the phone is limited at 1.7. I think it's mpdecision and/or thermal that doing this. But I'm not sure.
Anyway nexus 6 is not made to handle 4 cores at the same time on low battery. + camera gps Bluetooth etc...
So voltage can drop to 3800mv to 3600 and then go back to 3800 because there's voltage work on kernel and rom side to prevent those things.
For exemple I've see my phone after unlocking it. Coming back to home. Have 3500mv and then after one minute. Come back to 3700.
So maybe WiFi and cpu was using the maximum voltage they could to sync then when job was over. Go back to a normal voltage use.
Not every phone are affected.
Cpu binning level is important i think.
Mine is 7.
0 use the maximum voltage and 15 the minimum.
I've use a pvs 5 phone and problem was the same with my kernel. So I've changed some stuff and it worked.
So for me my battery is bugged. I mean on low mv battery send bad info and doesn't have enough juice.
I've try rma my phone but Google send me a refurbish phone (the pvs5 one) which have screen burning on it. Yes they send me phone with a navbar stuck....
So I've send them back and I'm planning to change the battery myself
In the hope it solve the problem.
Also my turbo charger make a weird noise when phone battery is full. So maybe my charger have always be bugged and broke the battery in some way.
I'm still trying to understand this. But it's what I've test and understand from this. More or less because I've probably forgot something in there

You can try https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BwCC2VJYgCavbHEwMk9CSFR4Snc
this is the version of my kernel i use (it says beta because it's not yet release, don't worry it will not break anything)
Make a backup of /system /data /cache /boot through twrp and flash the zip file
default settings will normaly make your phone not shut off. i've just go into 29% without problem
i can ear a noise from top speaker sometimes but i just stop touching the phone and it go back to normal.
Like i said above i still think a need a new battery
also i've see some users report a same problem on 6p after nougat update maybe we're on something

Gear S2 battery issue, drain in OS but when docked shows 60%

My Gear S2 operates as normal as it should, however even at idle, the battery drains rapidly. Once the unit is completely dead, I then dock it and it will say 60% charge, which I know is wrong given that the unit will not power on undocked, meaning the battery had been completely depleted. Unit charges normally but I think a bug is preventing it from reaching actual 100% since it believes 0% to be 60%. Is there a way I can fix this without tearing apart the unit or replacing the battery?

same issue
I'm having the exact same issue, did a factory reset today updated all apps still same. I use a basic watch face, turn brightness to 2, everything off except Bluetooth and can get about a day of use . Is anyone else having this issue and has a solution?

Battery dead

So update on this issue, (on the Gear App on the phones most updated version) I went to the basic watch face in gray scale, then turned off all notifications, under gear connection, I unchecked sync wi-fi profiles, and under about gear I unchecked marketing information. I'm not sure which of those if any made the difference but at the end of day one 16 hours of use I was at 70%. So on the second day I tried a colorful watch face with animations, and 16 hours in I was at 63%. So one of those changes I made may have fixed my issue.
I did uninstall and reinstall the app on the phone, as well as reset the watch itself, neither seemed to work until I did the above changes. Hopefully that will help someone, or at least help to find out what is causing the massive battery drain.

With all that I have done with my gear, most I was able to get was about 10 hours. Though today it did to something odd. It died completely like it normally does, (it dies anywhere between 3-10% ish, and when it does die, its completely dead) so I placed it on the dock. Two minutes later I check and it reports 34%, "thats odd" I think to myself so I undock it and power it up thinking I would get no more than 5 minutes battery life on it since it couldnt possibly have that much charge in two minutes. I also expected it to report a low percentage but it didnt. I placed it back on my wrist and it continues to run about 10 minutes later down to 25% and still going! I find it odd. My current leakage issue I think remains and might be why the watch doesnt last as long. I might end up getting a new battery and see. My top battery user: watch faces at ~45%, even if the face hardly came on, and I am using one with a custom background that is mostly pure black.

Drain
That does sound pretty weird. I had a custom watch face installed "Mr Time" and started with a brand new install and I'm slowly adding things back in.
I would suggest a fresh install of the phone app, and the watch, using the classic face black and white. If you can get similar results to what I have then one by one start customizing it. I tried a lot of things to get it to work, over several days and that's what worked for me. I even uninstalled all of the watch faces I want using from the app"i felt that Mr time was still running in the background, even though it probably wasn't.
Good Luck

Overheating

I bought my first Samsung phone in over 10 years, the Samsung S20 FE 4G with the Snapdragon chipset.
To my surprise the device is heating up very quickly while in use:
With light use, like messaging apps the CPU stays around 37 to 49°C,
While gaming it stays around 47 to 50°C+ (I believe the 60°C was the biggest temperature spike).
I've heard people saying that transferring data from your older phone via Smart Switch may cause this heating issue, but I don't think that should be a issue.
Lastly, I have no clue on how weather affects the phone's temperature.
Despite being winter, we're having temperatures around 40°C where I live, but even when the night comes and the temperature drops to around 20°C (right now it's 26°C and the CPU temperature is around 40°C, while I'm listening to music via Bluetooth and (re)writing this post) my phone still heats up (just not as much as in the rest of the day).
I think it's worth mentioning that the CPU temperature is also changing quickly, I don't know if that's normal or not but for instance, when I switch from one app to another, if the app I'm using to measure the device temperature (CPU Monitor) is to be believed, the temperature jumps some 2 to 5°C. It usually comes back down again, but I really don't know if that's normal.
I went to the Samsung store today, they checked, did some tests, and said that the temperature was at normal range, but they said that the temperature while switching between apps was a little strange.
They also said that their system detected a temperature spike caused by Fine Lock on the day that I bought the phone, which I find weird since it's only a launcher to the Good Lock apps, but nevertheless they advised me to uninstall it and keep monitoring the temperature for a few more days, and that if the device gets too hot (over 60°C), that I should go back again and ask for a replacement.
Anyway, should I give some time, should I worry about it, should I take it back to the store?

I have the same model as you and I haven't experienced any of the symptoms you are talking about. If I were you I'd return it and get another one. At least then you can be sure if it is normal or a defective device.

SmartSwitch isn't that smart especially between different OS's/devices.
I think you better start from the beginning...
Backup your contacts etc to the PC using cut/copy plus at least one other hdd.
Factory reset. Reload from scratch. Run factory loaded versions; do not update any at first.
Avoid enabling any power management at least at first.
See what you got and go from there.
It's likely not hardware at all but a bad configuration. Common with Samsungs and correctable.

Thank you. I'm thinking about doing it. I've talked to some S20 FE owners who live in my country (which is a very hot country) and they said that the device temperatures are basically the same as theirs, but at the same time I'm still worried about it's long term effects since I plan to keep this phone for at least two years.

Thank you, I did what you told me (except for flashing the factory stock ROM since I couldn't find it), I've only restored the apps using the Google backup, but didn't restore my settings. I've also did a mild debloat of the phone (removed Bixby and the Facebook apps) and while using the phone to browse through social media doesn't heat the phone as much as it used to, it still heats up more or less the same during gaming, so I'm guessing that might be normal.

Depending on how CPU cycle intensive the game is, it could normally use a fair amount of power.
Running background apps can make it noticeable worse though.
Try temporarily disabling Google play Services and see if that helps.

It's Honking Impact 3rd, it's not intensive like PUBG or something like that, but can be intensive depending on the game mode. It runs at 53°C max. I found out that one of the apps that I was using to measure the temperature apparently only shows the temperature of the hottest CPU core, that's why the temperature sometimes shoot up to 60°C whenever I took a screenshot for example, and then came back down to around 50°C.
But I'll try disabling Play Services and playing again.
Do you know if those temperatures are safe btw? Around 50°C while I'm gaming.
The battery's temperature doesn't go past 40°C, in fact I don't even think I've ever seen it getting to 40°C.
Anyway, thank you very much.

You're welcome. The Farenheit is scaled better for real world use.
140F is well within tolerance for the CPU/mobo as long as the battery doesn't get hotter than that. I don't let my battery go beyond 103F.
The CPU/mobo can handle up to probably 165F but it's best never to push it that hot as auto thermal shutdown doesn't always work in time to save the components that are running hot and have a sudden additional power usage spike.
Really the phone shouldn't feel hot... it's killing the battery too. Track them down.
If it feels warm when using the browser, something(s) are running in the background driving it up.
Any cloud apps, including Google backup Transport, Framework and Google Firebase.
Ditch any trashware apps like WhatsApp, Twitter, Instagram etc.
I'm using my 10+ in a case at a 75F ambient air temp browsing with a CPU temp of 89F right now. It is stock but heavily optimized.

The phone doesn't feel hot, unless I'm playing a game, depending on the game it gets somewhat hot.
It's been colder in my city these past two days, but tomorrow we'll have a temperature that's closer to normal. If the phone manages to stay in an acceptable temperature range I'll keep it, if not, I'll return it to the store and see what I can get done.
My old phone didn't have a plastic back, so feeling the phone warm is a new thing for me.
Most Google apps are disabled, I only use WhatsApp to talk to my family, I have Instagram installed but I don't even remember when it was the last time I've used it (I put it on deep sleep also).
Thank you very much once again.

Using power management can cause erratic behavior and sometimes increased power usage especially if set globally.
Developer options>standby apps, all buckets should show as active otherwise power management is running.

Once you do that you need to track down the trouble makers and deal with each on a case by case basis. Sometimes simply cleaning the system memory in Device Care can work wonders. Keep open apps to a minimum.
Here's the old version of Device Care. It uses 360° which cleans very well but is CCP junk.
To safely use it use Karma Firewall* to block its internet access. It will still run normally.
Before uninstalling your current version use Apk Export** to make a installable copy, just in case.
*freeware, uses almost no battery
**freeware that is very useful to backup all your apps and updates for future use... ditch Playstore for reloads

This is normal. Just because their bucket state is marked as active doesn't mean they are running. It simple means Android is no longer managing them by assigning a bucket state to them and so on. Google it... it sounds like a great idea but it never worked well for me in practice. Android still manages the apps with it off less the added resource burden of this system.

Sorry. You are correct.
I got rid of the updated version by doing a factory reset. You can try loading the older version by first force stopping the loaded version. It may worked... try this first.
I guess a adb edit would allow you to disable the current one. If the older one will load is another question.

I'll also test the phone again tomorrow when the weather in my city will return to normal.

Anyway, thank you very much, you've been very helpful!

My 10+ was a battery guzzling hot running hog before I optimized it. It took some time and effort
Today you never guess it is that same phone.
If there's any doubts get a refund. It could be hardware, even a heat sink or pipe issue.
That said this is a commonly seen problem that has nothing to do with hardware in Samsungs.
Do some Google searches for that device and hot running issues. See what you find.

I can relate. I had a Xiaomi before this one, and the stock ROM was plagued with app killing and battery drain. I'm glad you managed to work it out, all I had to do was switch to a custom ROM.
I've tested the same game again today since the temperature has gone back to normal where I live, and while the CPU temperatures are in acceptable range, the battery temperature got to 40°C/104°F.
I did some research regarding overheating on this phone and it's always the same thing, some have it like I do, while others say the phone doesn't even warm up the palm of their hands. So I don't know if its a configuration issue or if there are a lot of defective devices out there.
