[Q] Which Android fixes overheating?

Do the 4.0.3 ROMS fix the overheating at the top and other battery drain issues? I'm on and been using 4.0.2 ROMS.

Strange, I don't have that overheating issue. And I am still using 4.01

I've had it since day one and a bunch of other people have too I just don't know of 0.3 fixes this and the battery drain issues.

Its not so much a fix, as an improvement. Heavy 4g or calls still heat the phone up, but not as bad. remember that there are a lot of fast electronics crammed into a tight space, so its always going to get warm/hot. It seems to come down to better battery use. Its only getting better and better.

data/voice will always heat up your phone. simple as that. i'm just glad that playing games dosn't seem to overheat it.
on my nexus one, if i was playing a kairosoft game my battery got up to 115F+ in no time.

Yeah, when the device is actually being used, its going to heat up no matter what you are doing. But just like a regular PC, it depends on the load of the tasks as well

No overheating problems here. I would hope Samsung has a failsafe and shutdown if it overheats. Otherwise I only get hot when playing a netflix movie over mhl. Amazon movies get warm. Everything is not even a concern.

No I wasn't concerned at all I wanted to know is that in the 4.0.3 roms, was the fact of it getting hot at the top not as bad. The other guy said it got better. Sorry can't quote the name forgot it.

Is my Nexus broken?

Hi there,
i just got my new Nexus and i'm a little upset about how it behaves.
before i had the galaxy note, testing it for about 1 week. i was very happy with the notes connectivity (GSM / HSPA+ / WiFi) and its really great screen.
however, it was just to big to operate it with one hand and didn't do it for me so i switched to the nexus. Now to the problems i'm faceing:
- GSM / HSPA+ seems to keep switching all the time for no reason? Didn't have that problem with the note tought.
- With the Galaxy Note i had a H+ inducator telling me i'm on HSPA+ and i had like HSPA+ nearly all the time. now i only (at best) get a H indicator. I checked if i'm owning the GSM & HSPA+ version and since the device name is "yakju" i'm quite sure i got it. Is the indicator missing because there simply is no indicator for HSPA+ on the nexus or is it missing because i'm not getting a HSPA+ connection? What could cause this?
- The connection quality of the nexsus seems very poor compared to the galaxy note. can anybody verify that or is it only me haveing troubles? Example: i allways had bad connection within my kitchen (Desire HD previously). I even replaced my SIM with no luck. With the Note ALL MY CONNECTION PROBLEMS were just gone! Cristal-clear calls, no interruptions (even thought the signal indicator was showing only 1-2 bars out of 4)
- The AMOLED Display of the nexsus is not nearly as sharp as the notes one. Also, when pulling the brightness level down to about 20% i get "smudge" on the screen
- when i use the ICS Live wallpaper my desktop starts lagging when i rotate between the views. is that normal? i had the official ICS live wallpaper on the desire HD, which had only one core, and it didn't lag at all (even with particles turned up to lot higher values then the default)
- Yesterday my Nexus just turned off (I'm not talking about the reboot bug, which i also haved faced like 5 times allready) and for like 1 hour i was unable to turn it on. I tried to remove the battery for like 5 minutes, putting it back in, plugging the charger in and trying to boot the device: no reaction, just nothing! After like 30 tries it suddenly just booted again, DOH!
- even thought as far as i know ICS 4.0.4 has been rolled out allready, i still got no update pushed to my phone (still on 4.0.1 ITL41D). is that normal?
Could anybody please help me to find out if that's normal? I still could replace my Nexus if its broken.
P.s.: I'm on the T-mobile net, germany.

Upgrade to 4.0.4, this will solve your issues. If you don't want to wait for it to be pushed to your phone search on the forum for a 'how to'.

Its just you.... I don't have these problems.. my nexus just shut it self down twice...everything else is perfect... the connextiom issue is odd... because I seem to get full signal everywhere except in the bathroom
Sent from my Samsung GNexus <3

first off, thanks for the answers so far.
manual update to 4.0.4 would need rooting, which voilates waranty.
so i have to wait till it comes over the air. (thought, i'm on 4.0.2 since about 2 hours now. no noticeable improovements.)
what i found out so far is that i'm currently on HSPA at best (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7893188&postcount=10 HSPA:11 indicator) which is shown by a H indicator at the notification bar.
however, i didn't see H+ indicator.
so: looking at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galaxy_Nexus the Nexus does have HSPA+. Looking at https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galaxy_Nexus is sais it dosn't have!
Whats right? Is there a version without HSPA+?
What about the other problems i'm faceing:
- low GSM / HSDPA connectivity, continious switching between modes
- low performance when using the official ICS wallpaper (even thought benchmarks say everything's fine with the device itself, the wallpaper has a visible lag compared to "static" wallpapers)
would be great you guys could provide me bit more feedback if its just me so i can decide if i want to replace my nexus with a new one.

Hey,
Before carrying on I am fully rooted which may be why I don't have your Issues.
Signal wise I have noticed that the galaxy nexus' signal is slightly weaker compared to some of the other phones I have owned more noticeably poor and voice call quality is good. Perhaps a signal check in your area or call your service provider to see if they can run a signal diagnostic on your handset to see if anything faulty.
As for h+ I did a little Google of this and found another xda forum post. From what I can see there is no + symbol on the nexus and everyone gets just the H symbol.
As for your lag I agree certain ones will create slower scrolling however that's only crazy cpu intensive wallpapers. The ones he phone came with and nexus revamped etc create no Lagg for me.
Maybe your having a little more issues with your handset than I am, I know there has been a lot of issues but as people have said they are solved with the updates. Maybe look at rooting? Generally speaking it gets rid of all issues and you can always flash back to stock if needs be?

did that already. about 20KM around me i got 100% GSM, UMTS, HSDPA and even LTE coverage. Also like i said before: the galaxy note was like 100% better in terms of signal strenght and voice quallity.
any infos about the signal switching issue i got or does anyone know how the nexus switching algorithm works? i read that it only turns on HSPA+ when loading much data and switchs back down to UMTS / HSDPA later on, to save energy.
does it behave like this for GSM / HSDPA / UMTS transitions as well?
in generell i got like -100dB signal with my nexus here at my place. with the note i had like -70 up to like -80dB (so yeah, its really like 100-150% worse in terms of signal strength)

but does it show HSPA:11 or HSPA:13 within the settings --> info --> signal info? HSPA:11 (what i get) is not HSPA+ as far as i can tell.

well "lag" might be miss leading. the scrolling is a lot "SLOWER". when i scroll with a static wall in the back i get nearly instand feedback. using the ICS wallpaper there is a feedback gap of about 2,5 - 5 ms AND the transitions are not that smooth (looks like way less FPS, but to realize that it would meen that the FPS drop down to below 24FPS or atleast down to 30FPS)

hmm is it possible to flash back to stock? the only way i found to flash roms manually is always using the CWM bootloader, but how to get rid of the CWM if i want to go back to stock later on?
maybe i just didn't find it and there is a way to load the 4.0.4 rom using the official bootloader (which i would perfer)

Honestly the only way for you to attempt to solve any of these issues is to root. If you are not willing then there is not a whole lot of advice anyone can give.
You can easily flash back to 100% stock if you needed to. People do all the time for warranty replacement. Some unethically, but that's a different conversation. The point is you can.
You have to decide whether or not to unlock the bootloader and root. If not, your only option is to replace it. If your willing then its already been said what you should try.

yeh thats not the problem. i would root for sure if i know the problems i got are solved.
i'm just trying to figure out if its a hardware bug / manufacturing error and if it makes sense to replace it.
repleaceing means like waiting 1 week till the new one arrives + it dosn't mean that the new one will not have other bugs which i've seen here in the forums (AMOLED display bugs for example)

Do you use a cellphone case?
Because with the case I use, I don't get any signal here at all ... without the case I get better signal than I ever had before in my flat.
Also you could try flashing another radio.

Maybe its a tower issue.

just one small insight for the op: rooting violates warranty? LOL. You don't know what you're talking about. Nope, even with locked bootloaders it's possible to root some ics versions (up to 4.0.3). Hell, you can unlock and relock the bootloader (which allows for custom roms) by using fastboot, which doesn't phone home in any way. You don't loose your warranty on a nexus phone, unless you manage to **** up the only way available to fully recover it (usb, volume rocker, power button) which is through fastboot.
change radios. your NOTE was not running ICS, and it's a SAMSUNG phone, which surely has tweaked UI/interface/radio etc. It could even be showing full strenght when it's not at full strenght, for all we know.. -70dBm NOTE, -100dBm Nexus - and you say it's 100%/150% difference? are you sure?
return the phone if you feel it's not working for you and your area of residence.

thats right, but the nexus is also manufactured by samsung so they provide the drivers, don't they?
about the dB: i forgot, we're talking about dBm here so 3dB should be like 100% drop / gain.
so no, i'm not sure anymore. but as far as i remember when i check the note it had about 80dB while the nexus is around 95-105dB.
anyway, are there any better radios for the nexus t-mobile germany ATM?
i would love to try them out.

i dont have any cellphone case except a display protection. i never dropped a phone in the past 5 years so i see no point in cases.

well, searching the web for the last 4 hours i decided to send my nexus back and buy another phone.
it seems there are alot of people out there haveing poor signal. updateing to other roms or radios didnt fix their problems.
one guy even sais he had 3 galaxy nexus and very poor signal (-107dBm) compared to his razzor maxx (-80dBm) with all of the nexus'.
seems to be a hardware problem. since my desire HD sucked in terms of radio too and i really dont need a phone that's unable to call i'll send it back.
after all i know its not me (galaxy note worked like a charm - so no provider and location issue) and its not the rom / radio. after searching the web i'm very sure its not "only my device".
maybe the guys saying they got no problems got a (rare?) working manufacturing batch or are on LTE (which i'm not).
the nexus signal just seems to be poor. and i think no update's gonna change that.
so i send it back and will grap the galaxy SIII when it's released within the next weeks. till then i'll use my nokia e65, which is like 100 years old but atleast has signal.

Getting bad battery life on Sprint Galaxy nexus? Try this.

This is far from scientific, but it's been noticeable enough over the course of the last 4 days that I felt like sharing.
I was getting terrible battery life. Also my phone got really hot when I used any amount of 3G. About a week ago I was messing with the mobile operator settings and set the phone to LTE/CDMA mode, and accidentally left it that way even though we still have no 4G here in Boston.
I immediately noticed all these problems were gone. After a day I went back to CDMA only and guess what? Phone became a george foreman grill again, and battery life tanked.
I am one of those skeptical guys that don't think that kind of voodoo usually helps. But it did. And yes I know the constant LTE scanning would supposedly drain more battery, but try it, for some reason.. It actually has the opposite effect. It'd be great if more people tried this and reported back.

I'm going to have to try this. Every once and while battery drains at a mad pace and heats up!

Trying it now and reporting back tomorrow.

and here's an archived page
and besides this Galaxy nexus suffers from overheating , grainy and bands on the screen , wifi problems why are there so many issues regarding this device despite of having a dual-core processor and nexus brand name....
Does anybody's else's nexus gets heated up quickly while charging + wifi , lag in landscape ??

Yeah all devices do get heated up while charging but while wifi + charging / flashing ramps up my phone temp to 45C !!
iv'e actually got it imported from USA & here in india we don't have support for nexus.
i'm out of luck , waiting for a workaround or any advices

I'd play with the radio first. If the reception is crap the phone will boost power to the radio, get hotter, and use more battery. Since radios can be very network and region dependent it's worth experimenting.
Since you have no warranty and your phone isn't working right you have nothing to loose by unlocking and flashing a new radio.

My Gnex and my sis's GS2 also heats up to a minimum 40+ degrees.

Damn... Idk what you guys are doing... my battery temp is always 38 degrees celsius and my CPU temp is around 51 degrees celsius and I've never not had my phone feel cool to the touch unless I'm tethering or playing a graphically intensive game.

Phone heating to 130°+

I'm having a huge problem with my S3 heating up at the bottom of the phone, right around the sim card slot. I've tried CM10.1 and other similar ROMs and TW ROMs and I'm still getting this problem. My phone hasn't been through any trauma at all and this just happened from one day to another and I find that extremely strange.
Also kind of worried about things melting down on the inside, even tho I know it might not happen.
Can anyone out there help or point me to the right direction.

Are you using your phone and charging it constantly while this occurs? If it is happening while dormant on all roms, might be a specific app or the phone itself is giving up? Not too sure to be honest without more info.

130 degrees?! Where are you getting this info from? I can't even TOUCH mine when it hits 105 and it has an Incipio case on it! At 130 I'd be worried about the battery exploding to be honest.
Have you tried running an "empty" ROM on it? Just a basic ROM with nothing installed?

Crazy part is that it's not the battery that's getting hot. Its that plastic cover right under where the SD card and sim sit. I used a friends infrared thermometer and the highest is 132 but it averages 120-125. And today I used a "empty" ROM and just ran the browser for instagram and some Facebook, about 15 minutes in it got extremely hot. Also tried TW ROM "empty"

Sounds like a phone on the way out... Although I've never used an infrared thermometer on my phone I'm sure its not heating up to those crazy temperatures. When I use it heavily it gets warm but doesn't really ever get too hot unless I turn the screen brightness all the way up, then the screen gets hot.
I know of the area that you're speaking of - I'd consider replacing the device.

wow! this was happening to my phone during the first month after purchased. It was completely stock. i would get a message saying my phone was in critical temp levels. all i did was wiped it clean and started fresh. after that everything was fine.
seems like your problem is much worse. return your phone back to stock and tell samsung to give you a new one. this is very dangerous. especially if it sits next to your leg all day!

I've run CM10.1 RC4,5, and Many Nightlies, as well as Stock Deodexed and whatnot, with many different kernels (Ktoonz, Stock CM, etc), and I have an Otterbox Defender (And tonight will be an Otterbox Armor). I live in Utah, so we get some fairly warm temperatures and whatnot. My phone never heats up above about 50-60 degrees. I mean i never expose it to heat or sunlight that much, but I cant see a phone getting 130 degrees.
