My phone seems to get laggy when the battery drops to around 66%. Up until that point it is smooth as silk. Anyone else notice this? I don't have any power saving on.
Never had a lag issue with this phone...yet. Fingers crossed. Boot into recovery and wipe the cache partition. I do it once/day and it really seems to help.
Don't have this problem, even with power saving on.
Exynos S8+ is nice and smooth from 100 to 1. Maybe an app?
I didn't see anything taking up CPU, and the system optimization said everything was fine. I may have to disable apps 1 by 1 next time it happens to see if I can find what is bogging it down.
Clearing the cache seemed to do the trick. Down to 49% and just as snappy as when fully charged.

You notice some throttling with intense 3d games and especially emulators like Dolphin and PPSSPP after 10 to 15 minutes. Mainly emulators. Throttling starts when the 8+ 835 is barely warm. In stark contrast to the guy that posted Dolphin being played and asserted there is no throttling. Wrong. Tested on two 8+. Throttle city. Dolphin as example plays smooth and then stutter time.
For everything else- always smooth.

I noticed when browsing the web that the phone quickly gets quite warm so I installed StabilityTest and TempMonitor from Play store and ran a Classic Stability Test, within 2 minutes the temp went to 55°c and after 10 min is was 59°c, anyone else having these high temps? Running on battery...

Ok, thanks, was that battery temp or cpu temp?

Sorry that was battery. After 15 mins, CPU was up to 55c, didn't go any higher.

I have the same issue with my HTC one S, while i'm using browser (internet, google chrome) or download something with network mode "Gsm/WCDMA auto" my phone constantly changes between HSPA and 3G connection and heating up to 45,5 C. At this time, the battery consumes 1% of every minute. This is a problem of firmware of radio module or something else?
Thank you.
is anybody else concerned with how hot it gets? It takes just a few minutes of browsing and playing around with apps to bring the temp from 26-28C idle to 35-40C when the entire backside gets really uncomfortably warm. did somebody have a chance to play with different units to compare if they all do this?
Yeah it gets pretty hot, but I don't think it's too much to be concerned about. I think it's just an effect of making the phone so thin and making the body out of metal that means it heats up pretty quickly. As long as it's not going over 60 degrees I wouldn't worry! And if it does, you probably won't be able to hold your phone anyway
Just received my One S yesterday and after about 10 Mins of use it felt a little hot on the backside. And this is without any type case on it, so I then unlocked bootloader and rooted and lowered the CPU Speed but it still feels kinda hot after very little use. Has anybody else felt this........
its normal.
i have it too.

How hot you are talking about? Did you play any heavy game or something?
You can install some battery app to see what the temperature it goes so people could compare yours with theirs.

The only point at which it got a bit too hot for my comfort was sitting in my lap with GPS and google navigation running for about 20 minutes screen at full brightness. Picked it up and was a tad bit toasty.
Other than that, gaming, video streaming etc no heat issues outside what i consider normal for this type of device.
I had some weird heat issues the first couple of days when I got my phone, then I started using an app killer, didn't help... so I stopped using it, and the heat isn't as bad as it was before. It's due to heavy cpu/gpu usage from hd games or just installed apps that don't have any cache data, or high visual load ones in general.

No Gaming just browsing and normal things like texting and google +.

Hello all, new here and have a question
So I have the S3, it's only been 2 weeks, no root.
I've thought about rooting it, however I don't want to yet break the warranty as I think there might be a problem with the phone.
My Quadrant bench is usually around 5500-5700, however when running intense games (nova, the dark Knight rises etc), the phone heats up loads, which I assume is normal, the first 10-20 mins of playing is fine, after it starts to drop to really low fps, force closing the app and running quadrant it gives me a bench of 2500, now the weird part, it stays at the said 2500 for hours, even if I let the phone still and come back later its still 2500. The only way I've found to fix it is a battery pull for 5 min.
This same problem happens when downloading files at a fast speed with a torrent client.
Is this something I should be aware of, or is it normal?
Please help!

I think it might be because of overheating after playing games;s3 underclocks its cpu when it overheats so its not an issue big enough though

I had the same problem. The phone would heat up at the bottom to the point where it's a bit uncomfortable to hold.
This heating was followed by crashing and a few times my home screen would be wiped completely.
I had to get a replacement. So far so good, but it still heats up when browsing on the internet.
Any suggestions? I'm not rooted and I use go launcher. My vibrant never got this hot.

Try rooting ur phone and reducing the max frequency of cpu or get ur phone in power saving mode but remember performance would
when playing games on my tab like modern combat 4 or wild blood,my tab gets really really hot.is that normal? may be the the kernel that comes with the aokp rom.anybody know a solution or is it how it is?
You're running your cpu probably at 100% oddd are that's your issue...are you overclocked? I tried running mine at 1.4 ghz and it got warm

Mine also gets hot in the left side (portrait), but it's normal. I've used iPod's and iPad's that gets even more warm.
warm
yes im oc'd at 1200. if i leave it at stock 1008 the games seem to lag a lot.never tried anything pass that.wondering also if its something to do with 4.1.2,because,when i try any 4.2.xx roms it seems to run a bit smoother and not as hot.,
mine is not overclocked, even when playing casual games like candy crush, my tab got very hot, and now it start to reboot randomly, even after factory reset, after a few days, it start to reboot randomly again.
Just got a brand new Nexus 5, the newer batches with the speaker hole a lil bigger, and on stock rom and kernel it seemed to run a wee bit hot doing nothing, or very minimal tasks like going through main settings...
Is this normal? I can understand any phone getting hotter with a heavy load like some video games, but not while doing almost nothing... My ancient old LG Motion 4G is stone cold, even with heavy tasking, and I know that's not a fair comparison, but I wonder...
Will try a custom Kernel, and see if some settings help...

its normal.
your old LG wasnt a 2.3ghz quad core either. depending on what the temps are around you, and what tasks you are doing with the phone, its normal for it to be anywhere from 30C-70C. even if you are playing cpu intensive games, it can be normal for your device to hit 80-85C. at 100C, itll automatically shut down to cool off.
Personally I think the n5 stays pretty cools, mine sits around 40c with normal usage and even with gaming ita around 60c.

If it's just a little hot, it's probably normal. Mine doesn't seem to get hot under normal usage, though I suppose even if it did I wouldn't notice because I have it in a TPU case all the time. How hot it get probably varies from chip to chip, as no two CPUs are 100% identical. If it starts throttling under normal usage, then I would be concerned.
