Does any elses epic 4g touch heat up pretty hot in the back upper portion of the phone when you transfer files to it via USB cable?

Sometimes my phone will not charge when connected to the wall or my computer. The problem usually goes away on it's own, but when I need to charge I generally need to charge.
Sometimes I cannot access my phone via USB on PC either.
Only with data to and from the computer. No charging issues at all.
I've never had issues when plugged in to computer (USB). I frequently have issues when plugging into wall charger, but I think I have a bad cable. Phone will recognize charger connect, sit for a second, and lose the connection. Charging stops while cable is in. I bought a cheap cable on-line for the wall charger. I guess you get what you pay for....!
I have issues with usb connnect to computer since flashing cm6 8/13 nightly. Will not charge or mount usb.
Restoring back to 8/11 seems to fix issue but can't seem to get any newer nightlys to work or rc2.

Kind of sounds like a loose connector. I bought some micro USB cables from monoprice and the size of the connector was just a tad smaller than the plug for the phone. So if the cable wasn't plugged in and propped up in a certain way, the phone wouldn't charge. I just bought some new cables from monoprice (the ferite core ones) and problem solved.
I guess when this happens to you, wiggle the cable a little and then hold it for a few seconds at a certain angle and see if it starts charging... if it does then you know you need a new cable.
I was having similar issues and with my sd card permission issues I simply uninstalled my usb drivers and my removable disc drivers for the phone on the computer I think there was like 3 sets and haven't had an issue since.
I can no not charge or connect my phone to pc via the usb port. At first, the micro usb was lose and would wiggle when plugged into my phone. I have tried about five different cords, some are loose some are tight. But I can not get a charge to initiate weather its usb to pc or usb to wall outlet. Is my phones micro usb port ruined?

look inside the port, some connectors might be bent. If you can get it to connect to a computer once though, put back stock and take it to sprint, or you could always buy an extra battery and external wall charger and just switch batteries when needed
my micro usb cable's port dropped into water, as after 15 min of drying it when to connect it to my cell with my pc, firstly my cell switched off, after switching on it only charges my cell, no mtp mode is coming, no usb degguging is getting on, do anyone knows isnt my cells usb port had gone wrong or my usb cable's one ? plz rply fast !
I would say the copper in your cable is rusty, so data transfer probably couldn't be done since data transfer need more ideal conditions than normal charging

So this is not really a big deal, but I noticed that the USB connection is pretty sensitive on my phone. When I plug it into my PC and wobble on the USB Type-C connector or push it into the phone a bit, the connection to the PC gets lost for a second. Is anybody else experiencing this?
Also, I can get a maximum transfer rate of around 35 MB/s, which is maximum USB 2.0 speed. So does the phone actually have the capability to reach USB 3.1 (C) transfer rates?
I used to be able to connect my 5x to my PC just fine, but lately it started chopping and changing between being recognised and malfunctioning, which I think was attributable to a faulty connection. In order for me to keep it recognised by my computer I had to hold/push the USB-C in the phone extremely hard while it was connected to my computer, using the computer with one hand and keeping the USB pushed into the phone with the other. Eventually it just stopped being able to be detected at all and now even if I try to hold/push it really hard into my phone. Whenever I plug it in to either my laptop or my computer I get the same error message that it malfunctioned and was unable to be detected. I shined a flashlight on the charging port and found a large amount of lint, so I scraped that out with a safety pin confident that that was what was causing the issue. Yet it still malfunctions whenever I connect it to my computer or laptop, regardless of how hard I push/hold the USB into the phone. I'm fairly confident this is not a driver issue as it has gradually gotten worse to the point that it is no longer recognised, will I need to send it back, or is there a simple fix I can perform?

Sounds like a faulty USB C to A cable or an issue with your USB C port. Do you have to hold your USB C cable when charging through the wall outlet as well?

Also use flashlight to inspect your port or use airblower on port.
Sometimes there is lint/dust buildup (from pocket/purse) that causes inconsistent connection.

I get the same issue with other usb c to a cables, but there is no issue with charging; I don't have to hold it to charge.
