    you should avoid keeping it in extreme temperatures, use it as little as possible, and avoid overcharging which means that you should unplug your iphone as soon as it hits 100% battery

    I would contact applecare about this issue. a hot phone is not normal , a warm phone is.
    but if you contact applecare that way you have a record of the issue incase it gets worse in the future.

  • My iPhone 5 iOS 7.0.4 still gets hot and drains battery with everything but cellular turned off.  What to do?

    Have a new iPhone bought in late July 2013.  It had zero heating issues and battery issues until the past week (Nov. 2013).  Now, the iPhone gets hot to the touch and the battery drains within 2 to 3 hours, EVEN AFTER I HAVE DISABLED ALMOST EVERY FEATURE OF THE iPHONE.
    This iPhone has iOS 7.0.4, installed within last 36 hours.  I then erased the entire iPhone and restarted it as a New iPhone.  Then I went in and turned off everything in the way of Settings that permit disabling.  All notifications, spotlight searches, application updating, accessibility features, push features, location services, etc. were turned off or disabled.  Brightness is set to Auto.  Don't use the iCloud. 
    After doing all of that, which essentially rendered this iPhone just a clunky old cell phone, not even using WiFi, I connected to iTunes on my computer and restored my backed up apps, photos. 
    After the Restore, I went back into settings and made certain that, again, all notifications, app services, location services, updatings, etc. were disabled, still.
    The problem persists.
    It seems the only solution is to get rid of all my Apps and never use WiFi, or iCloud, or Mail.  That is unacceptable.
    Does anyone have a solution, besides my calling on the warranty on this phone?

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved. 
    If the problem continues, take the device to Apple for evaluation and possible replacement.

  • IPhone 4 hot and low battery life?

    Why does my I phone 4 have such a small battery life? And it is running hot

    Hello Bmay121,
    Thank you for providing the details about the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone.  I found a couple of resources that may help address this issue.
    First, I recommend following these steps if your iPhone has a short battery life:
    Battery life seems short
    Click ( www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html) for tips on how to prolong iPhone's battery life.
    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    Connect iPhone to iTunes and restore iPhone.
    If the screen shows a low-battery image, the battery is low on power and needs to charge for up to ten minutes before you can use it.
    When charging iPhone, make sure to leave it charging until it is fully charged. You'll know the battery is fully charged when the battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen looks like this .
    Note: When charging using a computer, don't connect iPhone to a keyboard. Also, the computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode. If iPhone is connected to a computer that's not turned on or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPhone battery may drain.
    You can find the full article here:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting

    You can also find useful information about the iPhone's operating temperatures in this article:When troubleshooting temperature, please refer to the following article:
    iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch (4th generation): 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. If the interior temperature of the device exceeds the normal operating range, the device will protect its internal components by attempting to regulate its temperature. If this occurs, you may notice the following:
    The device stops charging.
    The display dims or goes black.
    If the temperature continues to be a concern, you can isolate the issue by restoring your iPhone as new:

  • IPhone 4 hot and low battery

    My iPhone 4 is running hot and battery life lasts 4-5 hours? What's happening

    Hello Bmay121,
    I'd recomend restoring the phone as new, then install applications one at a time until you discover the culprit. As always, I strongly recommend making sure you have a backup of your iPhone in place prior to restoring the device as new.
    Choosing an iOS backup method (Should I use iTunes or iCloud to back up my iOS device?)

  • Iphone 5 getting hot and losing charge, iphone 5 getting hot and losing charge

    Since returning from far east my iphone 5 is now getting very hot and losing charge within half a day at maximum

    It is normal for the phone to be warm when the device is being used, or charged.  If it is uncomfortably so, you should probably visit an Apple Retail store and have them take a look, or call AppleCare if you are still under warranty.  They can run a diagnostic to see if there is a problem (But the apple retail store can likely do more as they can visually inspect the device in addition to the diagnostic test).

  • IPhone 5 getting hot and losing charge quickly

    My iPhone loses charge within 5 hours, even on standby or when it's completely turned off. I took to to the apple store and they ran a test and said it was my battery, so I bought a new one. This didn't help. I also tried resetting to factory settings and this didn't work either. And yes I've tried the obvious things like closing apps, turning off Bluetooth, etc. help!

    I have had my iphone 4s since April and after the initial required charge I have always chargd it daily every morning for about 90 mins or until it shows 100% charged. But, since middle of last week it is losing charge very quicky coming down from 100% to zero and switching itself off after about 6 hours ?? To give it the best possible chance I have switched off Bluetooth and made sure all apps are off.
    I booked an appointment at the Apple Genius bar and after telling me that I need to charge the phone for 6 hours daily regardless of the battery level indicator showing 100% they replaced the battery with a new one and sent me packing. Last night I charged it as advised for at least 6 hours and guess what from 100% to switching itself off due loss of charge took about 6 hours !!!
    I will return to the "Genius" Bar on Thursday to try again.

  • Why my iphone 4s getting hot and bettery drains too much fast ??

    I Have iphone 4s and it is a big peoblem for me now because its bettery drains too much fast and it becomes too much hot after some time. I am too much worried about that. I dnt knw what can i do now with that. Please help me in this matter

    The battery can be too much used.  There are a number of ways to help batter life from too much draining.
    First, you might want to have an Apple technician run a diagnostic on the battery to see if it is either bad, or consumed.  Consumed meaning the battery has lived its life.  Batteries are like tires, they will run out sooner or later until it needs to be serviced.
    Second, you can preserve battery life by turning your brightness down, You can turn off background app refreshes, your some location services off, turn some notifications off that you might get regularly that you don't really need, you can also change email setting to get manually rather then pushed from the email server, lastly you can turn off WiFi and Bluetooth when not around a WiFi network or a Bluetooth device. 
    Good luck!

  • My iPhone 5 is getting extremely hot and my battery is only lasting,at most, 4 hours! What should I do?

    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.
