  • GE620DX gets really hot while playing high end games

    Hi, i just got a notebook GE620DX it works great and performance is really worth it.
    However, my only problem is that it gets really hot while playing high end games.
    It feels so hot that it is like burning your hand if you put it just right the exhaust vent.
    Is this normal with any gaming laptop or there is problem?
    Thanks Very Much!

    Laptop computers naturally run hot (or at least very warm), and if they stay hot for prolonged periods of time they may overheat and cause serious damage. Whether or not you're experiencing the warning signs and dangers of your laptop overheating, the simple and inexpensive protective measures below will help keep your laptop cooler and make it work more reliably.
    5 easy tips to cool a hot laptop
    1. Adjust your power settings from "high performance" to a more "balanced" or "power saver" plan. This will tell the system to only use the power required to run your applications, rather than always using the maximum processor speed; if you need to play games or other intensive work, you can switch back to the high performance plan as necessary.
    2. Use dust remover spray to clean out of the laptop's vents. Dust can accumulate in and block the laptop's fan vents -- a problem easily solved with a can of compressed gas (~$10). Turn off your laptop and spray the vent to remove the dust.
    3. Use a laptop cooling pad that has a fan or two. Laptop pads that have vents but no fans can also increase the air flow around your laptop and they're very portable, but for stronger cooling needs, a fan is the best way to go. For this test, I used a Belkin F5L055 (under $30), but there are also several others selected by this site's previous guide that you can explore or you could even custom build a laptop cooling system if you're so inclined.
    4. Keep your working environment or computer room as comfortably cool as possible. Computers, like most people, work much better in air conditioned environments. Most server rooms or data centers operate at 70 degrees or below, according to Server Fault, and that seems like an ideal temperature recommendation for home offices as well.
    5. Shut down your computer when not in use, and especially when you are not at home. The last thing you need when you get home is to find out your laptop was a fire hazard (one of the dangers of overheating laptops).
    Taking the steps above brought down the internal temperature of an old and dangerously hot laptop from 181° Fahrenheit (83° Celsius) to 106° F (41° C) -- a difference of 41% after one hour of using the active laptop cooling pad and bringing the room temperature down to 68 degrees.

  • Lumia 535 getting very hot while playing basic

    Hi I have been using Lumia 535 for about 2 months and now its  getting very hot while playing basic games like subway surfer etc. for atleast 10 to 15 minutes, it was alright before but the problem started couple of days back.
    please find a solution to fix this issue.
    Thanks

    Hello, GyaniT. Rebooting your phone would help the issue. Note that this is normal for the phone to feel warm. For example, when you are using multiple high-performing apps, listening to music for an extended time, or when it is charging.  To avoid getting too warm and to protect itself, it may automatically slow down, close apps and, if necessary, switch itself off. Let us know if you have any clarification. 

  • 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 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,
    - Ari

    Some heating is normal when using intensive apps. Take it out of the case and move it to a cooler environment. If it gets too hot to hold in your hand, take it to an Apple Store to have it looked at.

  • 3GS gets burning hot during calls

    For some reason, and ONLY OCCASIONALLY, my iPhone 3GS gets burning hot during phone calls. I'm definitely in a 68 degree cool environment, no direct sun, my phone was cold to the touch when I picked it up. But by 10 minutes into the call it's nearly too hot to touch. There's something about CERTAIN CALLS that this happens on. Other calls will be just fine. Often I can hang up with the person, call them back and the phone is fine.
    I've even had the phone thermal-shutdown on me in the middle of a call, because of ITS OWN - SELF GENERATED heat.
    Naturally this rips battery life to shreds. I get about 15 minutes of talk and I'm done. Even ON CHARGER, it continues to lose battery and will shut down. So the phone module is drawing more power than USB charging can replace.
    How do I fix this? Or is the iPhone just junk?

    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar - http://apple.com/retail/geniusbar . The heat is coming from your battery.

  • Is it ok for my iPod 4g get hot while playing a game

    Is it ok if my iPod touch 4g get really hot while plaing games?

    It is normal for the iPod to get worm during heavy use like gaming.  If you are concerned, you can always make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
    BTW, if you look under the heading on the right titled: More Like This, you can find other post on the same topic.

    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.

  • 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.
