Iphone 4G gets extremely hot while in use
Hi,I have been using iphone 3G for quite sometime now and recently bought myself an iphone 4G. We very Happy/excited about its appearance and added features, APPLE HAS DONE A WONDERFUL JOB AGAIN!!.
As i am using my new iphone,I am put off a with few problems i.e,I started to experience that my iphone gets extremely hot while using different applications and never experienced that with my 3G and with my friends 4G iphone using at present. My iphone 4G gets extremely hot while;
1. taking a call
2. using any an applications for example; using camera,accessing SAFRI, Skype and even text messaging. Any application that i use the phone starts heating up from the right side of my phone facing towards me and it keeps getting warmer and warmer and eventually the complete back of the phone.
3. charging it gets very hot.
Last but not the least, while taking a call next to my ear its sensors sometime manual functions and it mutes or opens an other application during the call... which is very annoying
I believe that my iphone 4G will not operate for long with this over heating issue and it will seriously damage the circuits inside the phone eventually.
I am trying to take an appointment with Apple in London and would like to have a replacement and at the same time would like to request Apple to investigate this phone, avoid these issues for future iphone production. Thank you

Book an appointment at your local Apple Genius Bar to get the iPhone 4 inspected. Otherwise bring it back to where you bought it to get it troubleshooted.
Also as per the packaging it's the Apple iPhone 4, not 4G. The "4" identifies it as the fourth model in the iPhone series. The cellular chip used in the iPhone 4 supports HSPA/UMTS (3G) not 4G.

My iPhone 5 gets very hot while in use or just charging?
Is it normal for the phone to get so hot while being used just for simple things like listening to music or charging
Hi Lizard914,
It is entirely possible that what you're experiencing is within normal limits. Here is an article with additional information:
iOS devices: Keeping device within acceptable operating temperatures
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2101
When using the device or charging the battery, it is normal for it to get warm. The exterior of the device functions as a cooling surface that transfers heat from inside the device to the cooler air outside.
Take care,

My iPhone 5 gets really hot while using it.. its only my 2nd day with it is this normal?
My iPhone 5 gets really hot while using it.. its only my 2nd day with it is this normal?
I had same issue, apple give me a new phone, they say it might be software problem, but the 2nd phone has fast drain too, I took it to apple , they restored my phone as new, and iCloud backed up my contact. I thought about the whole thing, I used to sync it to my window, but this time I synced it with my Mac. 87% at 3:30pm. I think that window has bugs. It is not my iPhone 5's problem. After all those stressful days.

Iphone 4 getting extremely hot, not holding charge and Camera freezing entire phone.... HELP?
My Iphone 4 is 5 months old and is getting extremely hot to the point where you can barely hold it or have it in your pocket
The battery does not last for longer than a 2 or 3 hours and the camera causes the entire phone to freeze
I have already restored original settings with no luck and tried the hard reset
Any suggestions?Make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store.
If none are close to you call AppleCare and arrange to have it serviced. -

My iPhone is getting extremely HOT and losing battery charge by 50% in one hour.
my phone is getting too hot and in an hour or so it will loose the battery life and will turn off ..
i just had a word with the apple care they were like you can get the phone replaced from the country were you bought from, as such i bought this phone from Dubai and now they are like it cant be replaced in india..
its really frustratingWhere you are sounds far hotter than anyplace I would like to be...in any case, here is some info on acceptable temperatures and other temperature related info..
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2101
from this article...
Operate iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch (4th generation) in a place where the temperature is between 0º and 35º C (32º to 95º F). Low- or high-temperature conditions might temporarily shorten battery life or cause the device to temporarily stop working properly.
Store the device in a place where the temperature is between -20º and 45º C (-4º to 113º F). Don’t leave the device in your car, because temperatures in parked cars can exceed this range.
are you within this range? -
The problem which i encounter with my iphone 4 is extremely hot while charging, surfing, even playing games. Is it happen to other iphones or just only mine?
I noticed this the second! I plugged2 of my sealed units in to the ac charger. And noticed these units batterys were not what they should have been.
They would also get very hot with normal use. I would use the web for 5 mins with my dad and mines and only mine would be hot to the touch.
This was with two different units. It seems some just get hotter faster and easyer. My current one dosnt -
BlackBerry Torch Getting Extremely Hot
The past few days for some unknown reason, my BB Torch has started getting extremely hot when in use, particularly when making or receiving calls. The phone then also starts to “Call Fail” when it gets so hot. The phone gets so hot it almost burns your skin if you put the phone in your pocket. If I don’t use the phone at all, it then cools down again, but as soon as I start to use it again it heats up. Also when I charge the phone it starts to charge then stops, then when you pull the charger out and plug it in again it charges again normally.
It does not get extremely hot all the time. It might work half the day normally, then all of a sudden it will just start heating up and start “dropping” the calls.
I took it in to my Service Provider today and they sending it off to Blackberry for them to look at the phone to see what is wrong. Just wondering if anyone has experienced this with their phone at all?On device go to Options, Device, Application Management is a great way to see what your apps are doing with your CPU usage on Smartphone. Just slide top bar to CPU and see what is going on. Also touch the CPU menu to see other time variables. I found out that an app was eating away CPU cycles on mine
Disable Compression on media card? go to Options, Device, Storage
using a custom theme? try it for a day the factory default one to rule out your theme
remember the esc key closes most apps, except for GPS and some chat clients. the other apps need to use menu and then exit or close. The farthest key to the right is a home key and does not close any apps per se but will end calls.

It would not be uncommon for the 4S to get a LITTLE WARM while getting used with the screen on etc, but not to the point where it gets so hot that you cannot keep your finger on it.
If you can easily replicate the problem and you got it from an Apple Store then I would make an appointment to have it looked at/replaced.
If you got the 4S from elsewhere then I would get in contact with them and arrange for it to be looked at/replaced. -
My iPhone 5 is getting extremely hot, especially when it is charging! It was gets hot when my battery starts getting low. My batteries is also not lasting nearly as long as it used to! It last at max 4 hours if I'm lucky! I don't low what I should do!
Hello landry morgan. Just shared. Turn your brightness to auto. If you just buy this phone. Let the battery totally drain couple of time and fully charge again. It will became great after that.my phone take 2 days to totally drain.awsome. If your location to far away from network transmitter it will became little bit hot at the battery.if you very near to wifi you will feel your iphone5 it surf like a ferrari + no heat at all. P/n; dont look at pecentage of your battery. Just take note how many hour until its totally drain.

Iphone 4s white getting extremely hot
I have had my iphone 4s for 16 months, and just recently it has been getting extremely hot, to the point where it has actually burnt my finger this evening, the heat was coming from the signal bar down the right hand side, then the heat radiated from the back as well, it get hot ususally when charging but i had only been paying on my phone for about 15mins when this had happened.
Standard troubleshooting...
Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
Remove all apps from Recently Used list...
- From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
- Tap and hold any icon in this list until they wiggle
- Press the red to delete all apps from this list.
- Press the home button twice when done.
If still a problem restore with your backup.
If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue. -
Phone gets really hot while using the YouTube app.............
My iPhone gets really hot while using YouTube. Is/has anyone else experienced this? Should I be concerned?I did a search and only came up with threads talking about the phone getting warm while charging, my phone does not get hot/warm while charging, only when using YouTube and sometimes while using Safari. Any input will be greatly appreciated!
When connected via WiFi or EDGE or no difference.
My iPhone sometimes gets considerable warm when connected via EDGE with low reception but this is rare when connected via WiFi or with good reception. -
My new iPod touch is getting really warm while I use it. Is it normal? I mean, I have silicone cover, maybe it's the reason for iPod being so HOT?... How do you think, is it too important to have a cover on the iPod? How about screen protector? :S
