Colleagues,
I noticed today that my Fuze was very hot when I pulled it out of the pouch. It was functional, but I immediately shut it off. I have had it for a month and this is the first time it has happened.
What should I do?
Best regards.
do u have wifi on? that would always heat up my kaiser.
have you flashed it recently?
reaverclan,
No, I only have Phone on and Data Connection on.
overhaulengines,
No, stock ROM. I have not wanted to put in another ROM until I had the phone for a little while longer precisely in case anything went wrong with it and wouldn't loose the warranty.
I turned it back on and it is staying under normal temperature but I don't know if it will happen again. Any other ideas as to why this happened or what else can I check?
If you dare to measure the battery drain it would get us closer to the answers
The fuze tends to do that. Especially with data connection on. If you were doing anything data intensive it should warm up. I actually had a phone call while the device was charging this morning and the phone became really warm. But thats normal. Dont worry about it too much.
I guess I'll have to keep an eye on it to see if does it again.
yeah if it is using data it will definitely heat up. the gps should make it heat up too.
how hot is hot?
The phone does get warm when you're using it...this is by design. It is even mentioned in the manual.
Has anyone else noticed their Sensation getting hot even when in the Bootloader?
And I'm not talking about the screen or the battery (those stay cool), but the bottom part of the phone, mainly the front, on the buttons and at the bottom of the screen.
This might be part of a problem I describe here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1259247) but I just wanna see what people say

I think it gets hot in bootloader due to the screen being on constantly and it being white using more energy? Plus if its plugged into to the pc aswell ti will get hot.
PS. In regards to your other thread, I had this issue at first but it has calmed down, But when using mobile data the phone gets hot sometimes in the 40s (used to be alot worse) and also playing some games it can heat up. After peaking o HTC rep they said aslong as its under 50C its safe to use.
Its a very common issue and pretty piss taking but hey, its the cpu thats heating up.

Thanks for your response mate.
The issue with the phone heating up was one I did NOT always have - it just suddenly appeared. Before that, it would only get hot while playing 3D games - otherwise, it would always stay nice & cool, or just a little warm, even when using 3G etc.
So, I don't think it's normal. I think it's a problem. Whether HTC wants to admit it is a different question.
this new t-mo update has messed up my phone. my phone now wakes up out of sleep mode, runs on 100% screen brightness (i keep it on 75%) and it runs hot. I have no clue when its cutting on so my phone has been super hot a few times. Anyone else have this problem? i am not pleased. Any fixes out there? thanks in advance.
Me too! It started yesterday, it gets damn hot. Not when it you first get your sensation, but properly hot! I couldn't honestly hold it, and also the battery just drops insanely in a few minutes. Also I am not sure if it is only me, but the speaker don't work sometimes. A completely new problem :/
I got my phone last Saturday from Orange. The first thing I did when I got home was completely de-brand the device and install the latest OTA from HTC. I have to admit myself, that it caused the phone's Sense to become insanely unstable (going to the green HTC logo after about 15 minutes of usage every time you exit an app) and it got quite hot too. Hot to the point that I didn't even have to be using my phone for it to be hot. I was actually able to put my hand in my pocket during cold weather and keep my hand warm because of the heat of my phone! Since installing Android Revoloution it has solved my problem & all problems with the slowness of the phone.
I hate this. Every time I plug the phone in or place it on the wireless charger, the screen comes on. When it hits 100%, the screen comes on again. This is completely unnecessary.
Does anyone know of a way to disable that?
Exposed could, but we know how that goes...
It's not available for the S6?
Nope
Bummer. It really helped with a lot of things on the S4. Is it in the works?

AFAIK, there's a working version for Lollipop. How compatible it is with the S6, I do not know.
just ignore it? The phone turns itself back off in 5 seconds.
Wow, yeah, you're right. Why would I take some little pet peeve about my phone and expect to find help from a community of people who dedicate their time to such things as removing the name of your carrier from your lock screen? Maybe we'd all be better off if we just sucked it up and lived with everything exactly the way the phone came out of the box.
I've worked around this in the past using Tasker and Screen Filter. Just set tasker to activate a fully black screen filter on top of your screen for a few seconds whenever the phones is sat on a wireless charger. Same thing when it's fully charged. Works great.
Not for everyone

I like to have the phone set to "screen always on when charging" so when i have it plugged in and am sort of using it, the screen won't time out on me. However, I don't need the screen on when it's not in "use". So with the phone set to screen always on when charging, it suchs that it awakes once 100% charged or when notifications come across and then stays on. This is exactly why all the customization mods are so beneficial. I don't wan't the screen to ever turn on, unless I initiate. Where can I choose that without a custom rom or mod of some sort, I don't think its possible. Anyone got a good option for me?
Hi,
I think I'm having an issue with my new Z3, it seems to overheat very easily. We have high temperatures here in Czech Republic currently, however this happens indoors also (not more than 26 °C).
Phone often gets over 60°C even if its not under heavy stress, i.e. just chatting over messenger and browsing web. When I try to start camera, it shuts itself off, beacuse the phone is too warm. I even got like 68°C when trying to take a picture!
Is this normal or should I have the phone replaced?
Thanks
I would say not normal, our temperatures in Toronto Canada range between 30/40 in summer and I've never had a over heating issue.
Have you tried factory reset?
Currently i'm in holiday and i'm always near the beach, under the sun my Z3 gets near 60-65 but when is like 8 pm and there's no sun anymore my phone is near 35
Same here.

Jo, tady to samy, hruza. Zkus 4K video - ja muzu natacet asi tak... 20 vterin? Kdyz mam stesti. A neni moc horko....
Same here. Temperature gets to 60+ degrees while on 3G plus facebook/whatsapp. I will try resetting to stock and check if it fixes the problem.
I used to have this after upgrading to Lollipop.
Factory reset and wipe fixed all problems; overheating, battery issues, etc.
Over heating is always a problem for xperia Zx especially if you live in high temp country like mine
i have and use the original z, z1, z2, and now z3 and it all the same
even on standby the xperia will get hot if im outside under the sun
and using the camera will make it worse, the device will show over heating need to shutdown
using iphone 6 plus in the same condition is better but after dozen pic taken, it show the same error
the only cure for me is to power off the phone until the device no longer feel hot in your hand
but for now i usually use two phone if im planning to take many photo, one usually powered off and use the other one for camera, if its started to get hot then turn off phone and powered on the other phone lol
btw i heard z3+ and z4 overheat is worse so not planning to upgrade to z4, gonna wait until sony wake up and do major update to their line up
this just happened a few hours ago.
I've visited my grandma today in some places in Metro Jakarta Area, and boy Jakarta is as hot as the hell of the hell, when i go there, to her house, it actually looks green and cold, despite that afternoon it's sunny. but boy when i got out, it just burns my brain, head, and body inside and out.
So I kind of played some music in my car, but i turned off the music, and i got out of the car and go to the house, when i came in, wow, just wow, it's like i've just came in to hell, you know. Well in that time, i didn't feel that hot inside me, but my phone didn't feel the same as me...
you know, when i got out, i had my phone on aeroplane mode, and i don't do anything with my phone, after i came in, i just did light things with my z3, and after that, i played some games, and the phone started to became warm, well not that warm, but just a tad warm. and when i finished playing the game, i closed the game, and then lock my phone, and my phone seemed like it didn't like the environment and the air quality inside the house, so it became really really warm after that, i checked the temperature at cpuz and i saw the battery temperature, that is at 36 or so celsius, and i saw the thermal, most of them are like 40-50, and it is raising. and it just slowly getting hot until it is super super hot, i got panicked that i don't check the temperature and just turn off my phone to let it cool down.
Well my phone is new, and here, people are just ambitious when some person got a new phone, especially when it is a good one, like s6,z3+,iphone 6, or something else, especially z3 like mine, because sony users here are a lot but i rarely seen the users. so when i turn my phone off, my uncle was looking at my phone and started to tell me that he want to borrow it for a minute, so i gave it to him, i forgot to tell him that i turned off the phone because it experienced overheating that time, so i think he turned on the phone, i saw that fancy startup screen with that purple flow thingy, so i told him late, and asked some questions about the phone, and then i took the phone. I got panicked again because it's getting even hotter.
well that room is super super hot you know, but i'm one of the people who hate hot or warm environments, but i don't feel that hot, although it is warm, but some people thought that, that room is as hot as hell. so when i checked the phone, i saw that the startup screen is still running, it's unusual because it should display the lockscreen that time, so soon after that, the phone got lagged startup, and a few seconds later it got freezed, and then, like 5-8 seconds after that, the screen is pitch black, i thought the phone died, but it was restarting again, so i wait a couple of seconds, and it just did the same thing as before, so i'm worried, after like 5 times of doing the same thing, i asked my sister if i need a pin for force reset the phone with the button inside the microsd/sim slot. And then the screen turned off with 3 times vibrate, that was my first overheating and my first time of reseting a phone like that on my z3,
Oh yes i just remember, the phone is at 13% that time before the first turn off. And continuing on, when it already cooled down, i pressed the power button to turn on the phone, and again, that thing happened again, and it overheats again, i got really worried, so i let it cool down again, and then i tried to turn it on again, but did the same thing, so i turned off the phone again with the same method, and take my charger inside my car, and charge my phone, after that, it charges at 9% mark, i let it charge for some minutes and then, i turn on the phone again and just pray , then finally, the phone turned on without an issue, when i tested everything inside and outside it, everything seems normal.
that is creepy you all know? hahaha
btw, i'm not really in jakarta, i'm in sawangan, depok, it's like jakarta's sub city/ inside Jakarta metro area. but both are as hot as hell.
edit : oh yes, it's not just me, my mom's gnote 8, my sister's iphone 5s, and even my blackberry curve 8520 did the same. but my z3 is like, far severe one
but other than that, my phone didn't feel and seem as bad as you are, i just got like warm but not that much heat on mine when trying the same thing with the same condition as you are.
