My iPhone is getting hot even when iddle... etc

16GB Iphone 3g, purchases last May 17, 2009.
In addition, the battery easily discharges (in standby mode), say 2 hours.
That is more than a month of use only. Initially, there is an approximately 1mm gap at the bottom of the screen and thought it will soon disappear but not.
Sigh, i have to return it to the Exclusive Distributor here in Manila. I was given a repair form and was told to wait for at least a month before they repair or replace the unit.
Now, i'm having a secong thought of using an iphone anymore. Imagine, for only a month of use and considering the big amount i invested to buy it then suddenly my iphone was subjected to repair? a PHOBIA is developing I Think

    You posted in the iPad forum instead of the iPhone forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa  I'll request that Apple relocate your post.

    I Have had my IPhone 5s for less than a month and have noticed that it gets very hot while downloading apps/movies and while using GPS.  (not at the same time) Battery life is also disappointing!  Normal?? My 5 never had this problem!

    I have started Noticing that it gets particualrly hot where the exhaust vents are Especially on tp where the Altec Lansing Logo is for the speakers and this causes the system to act Sluggish.
    It Also gets really Hot where the hard Drive is Located So hot in fact it has Burned my legs So i Bought a Laptop cooler But it still gets extremely hot.
    Is it Humanly Possible HP can make a freakin Laptop that dont get so hot it can cook an egg or blister your skin???
    Can HP actually Put In a Bigger cooler that not only dissapates CPU heat but also a fan for cool air intake for the HDD that also feeds the venting for the CPU Cooler Cause Im seriously thinking about filing a lawsuit against HP for this hazardous Design Flaw in cooling.

  • My iPhone was getting hot when used or charging. Went to Apple in Portland, OR.Phone making random sound. Why??? How do I make it stop????

    My iPhone was getting hot when used or charging. Went to Apple in Portland, OR. I did a reset on the phone. My IPhone is now making a random sound. Why??? How do I make it stop???? I have turned off all notifications. I do not have life360 or Skype. I do have Facebook, WordsFree, ScrabbleFree, Pandora.

    I did the reset. I updated the iPhone to 6.0. The alert sound stopped for a while then started again. I had to go to notifications a few times to turn off some of the alerts and now I have peace, plus I learned more about the notifications. Thanks for your help. I did not need to go to the Apple Store.

  • Why IPhone is getting hot when downloading via wifi and how to turn off itunes 11.1 launch automatically when plugged in Iphone to the PC

    Why IPhone is getting hot when downloading via wifi and how to turn off itunes 11.1 launch automatically when plugged in Iphone to the PC

    My brother with the iPhone 4 suffers from that too.

    But to Stop Launch when your apple device is connected, 1. connect your iPhoneto your computer, 2.Go to the Summary Page, 3. uncheck the box "Open iTunes when this iPhone is connected" and then your good for that device.

  • Does anyone have problems with iPhone 5 getting hot?

    Does anyone have problems with iPhone 5 getting hot? I just bought a new iPhone 5 & it's gotten hot twice. Once when I was on FaceTime for 30 min it got hot about 15 min into the call. & once when I was downloading some apps.

    It is normal for it to get warm when it's being used, especially if it is hot outside. It can even get uncomfortably warm. As long as it is not causing you physical harm (as in giving you burns) or displaying a temperature warning, then it's normal behavior. It's like taking your laptop outside and using it. Except the laptop will probably burn you.

  • HT5622 iPhone 5 getting hot

    Hi why my iPhone 5 getting hot when charging and. The battery  end fast

    Hello Elsayed07,
    Depending on the warmth of the iPhone, this can be normal behavior. The article listed below explains warmth while charging and using other functions more in-depth:
    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.
    You can find the full article here:
    iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch (4th generation): Keeping device within acceptable operating temperatures
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2101
    Your iPhone will warn you if it is over heating, and if it needs to, it will shut itself down. As long as you have not experienced this warning, what you are sensing may be normal. If you believe the temperature is a concern, you can isolate the issue by restoring your iPhone as new.  This will help you identify whether it is a hardware or software issue:

  • My phone doesnt hold it's charge and runs hot even when shut down.  what can i do to fix.

    My pone will not hold it's charge as long as it should and runs hot even when shut down.

    Shutdown all apps that may be running in the background by double clicking the home button, touch and hold an app until they all start to jiggle, then one at a a time dismiss each.  Then turn off all services you don't need, such as Bluetooth if you don't use it.
    Fully charge and see how the iPhone works, does it retain charge, run at a normal temp?  If it still is hot, etc., take it to an Apple store genius bar for testing by the techs.

  • The flashlight in my iphone 4s keeps lighting even when it is switched off. I went through many articles and in those was mentioned presence of humidity could be one reason, but my phone was not prone to such conditions

    The flashlight in my iphone 4s keeps lighting even when it is switched off. I went through many articles and in those was mentioned presence of humidity could be one reason, but my phone was not prone to such conditions & it is the condition when i took it from its pouch. Kindly help

    If the phone is offline there is no way to track it or send a message to it.  You can place it in lost mode to lock it and send it a message (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmfc0f0165), but this will not take place until the phone goes back online, if it ever does.  If it does, you will get an email informing you.

  • Why did my iPhone 5 get hot and shut down?

    Why did my iPhone 5 get hot and shut down?

    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.

  • I boght an iphone 4s, it gets hot easily, is it normal? does iphone 4s gets hot just for surfing the web?

    i boght an iphone 4s and it gets hot easily, is it normal? does iphone 4s get hot just for surfing the web?

    It all depends on the reception. If you cell reception is bad, iPhone will try harder and it will get warmer and uses more battery.
    For your info, iPhone 4S is a dual core A5 chip.
