120°F / 51° C seems very hot to me. My Gnex is on 84°F / 29°C. Even after playing high performance games it doesn´t heat up more than to 111°F / 44°C
What Rom / Kernel / Build are you running?
I'm running the latest Vicious/CM10 w/latest Franco but I've tried several other ROMs...none of my other gnex's ran this hot...it will go up to 160 with the slightest task to the point where it is uncomfortable to touch on the upper part of the screen.

maybe try the paranaoid android rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1619582. there are a few reports about overheating with the stock CM10 kernel, but works perfectly for me. solutions there are switching to trinity kernel or franco as well. but mainly the overheating shoult result from a bad kernel.
If you don´t want to put on another rom, maybe switch back to an older / stable version of francos.
I don't think it is a kernel issue because I just got this replacement...(have had 6 gnex's...long story) was running the exact setup...never had any heat issues until this one. Even when it was bone stock I noticed the upper part of the screen was hot to the touch.

then give back to your reseller. sounds like a factory problem then. phone shouldn´t heat up this much. not even it´s uncortable it may crash your phone (or parts of it) in the long run.
That's what I was thinking unfortunately...on to gnex number 7 I guess
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
yeah unfortunately maufacturing standarts for the GNex are way below than these for samsungs own devices. but better exchange it now then beeing said it´s your fold if the cpu melts or something
Ya that's too bad...calling Verizon first thing in the morning thanks.

i feel like you two don't know what you are talking about and idk wtf you are doing to your phone that you've had to return 6 of them? derp but, that's besides the point
now the issue at hand, i've had over heating since jelly bean on custom roms which has shut my phone down ... it seems to be a kernel issue as far as i can tell ... i'd recommend trinity's TNP1344-307-JB-STABLE35 http://goo.gl/jry8c
if the problem persists go back to stock ... and quit sending your phones back you are the reason why carriers don't want people to unlock their bootloaders
50°c is normal operating temp, the gnex has a thermal throttle that kicks in at around 75°c, then it scales down the cpu. You also have to consider the ambient temperature outside. Its 95°- 100°f here during the day, of course your phone will run a little hotter when its hot outside. Just use your phone
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Just dip ya phone in water, that should stop it getting to hot :cyclops:
Most of the phones I sent back I did not modify at all...asurion sent me 5 defective devices that all had hardware issues...(faulty screen, broken buttons, no radio, DOA, etc...probably refurbs), they then reimbursed me for buying a new phone through Verizon and it does not have any of those issues. I tried Trinity and it is running slightly cooler now. As for me not knowing what I'm talking about, that is why I asked in the first place. I didn't know what the average running temp. is.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Just flash back to stock and see if you still have the overheating. If nothing changes you have a defective phone. I don't think my gnex has ever reached 120° F even with some mild overclocking and heavy use.

"hot" is relative desriptor, its not a temperature but how something feels as compared to something else. can you give us a tempurature? was it plugged in?

yup, thats hot!
what are you using when it gets so hot? watching a movie in flash will do it, gaming will do it when plugged in(but youre not plugged in). my guess is that the lte 4g radio could do it also, especially if its trying to connect but cant. ive heard of verizons galaxy nexus getting very hot with the lte radio on. my gsm gn only gets that hot when its overclocked highly and im putting it through a tough benchmark regiment(when trying to get it that hot). it could also be a defective battery.

I've had many sprint phones get hot while downloading lots of data over 3G. It particularly happens when I do "update all" in the android market while on 3G. Burns through battery power real quick.
This is mainly due to sprint's crappy/obsolete 3G implementation trying to keep up with modern data demands.

I'm having the same issues. I might just sell the phone for now while I can for around 400$ then re-buy it once it hits a lower price
deleted post.
move along, nothing to see here..
Just an FYI, that screenshot is a picture of the battery temperature. Not the CPU temp. I believe that the maximum temperature the Galaxy Nexus' processor can withstand is 100 degrees CELSIUS, not Fahrenheit.
At deep sleep the lowest my CPU reaches is 80 degrees F and my CPU is ALWAYS around 95 degrees F when in light use and rises to about 145 degrees F when browsing or using an app.
And I believe you must be rooted to check CPU temperatures anyway. Franco's app shows the MPU temperature and you must be rooted to check it.
Hey all,
I'm having quite some trouble with my screen, I don't know it this normal other GN but as the tittle say my phone heats way too much on the top middle of the screen just with normal use (browsing the web, checking twitter or xda) and you dont want to know what happens when I play a game, the screen literary burns my finger if I touch it.
I imagine the GPU o phone radio is in that section, but is there a way to control this issue?
I'm attaching some screenshots
Thanks

What are you using for a Kernel?
I know that with some of the early Trinity Kernels in the alpha stages, my phone would sometimes spike up to 52c (125F) but if I used Franco's Kernel, it would be steady at 37c (99F) no matter what I was doing.
Hey,
Use either lean kernel or popcorn kernel with interactiveX governor usually 230 - 1200 mhz

Hey guys wondering if anyone else had this issue? Got the Galaxy S3 and its runs pretty hot. Not like the whole phone but like half of it mostly where the home button is but in the back.
Don't know what it is. Wanted to know if anyone else was experiencing this or if its kernel related/ROM related.
I've tried switching ROMs, Kernels, Governors, Schedulers and still nothing. Also undervolting and underclocking. Right now I'm running Casper's AOKP build 9/20 and its running beautifullyt except for this heating issue.
Let's see if anyone else is having the same as me or can offer help.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
I'm running stock, rooted, stock kernel. It heats up when I'm gaming or doing something CPU intensive. Never had a problem because of it though. I've seen other threads where this is pretty much considered normal.
I mean I had a GNex before this and it did used to get warm in the back when I used to surf the web or use the phone but once I rooted and changed kernels, undervolted and underclocked, I could do anything and it wouldn't get hot.
Since I'm fairly new to the GS3 I just figured I post it on here just to see if this was how the phone ran typically

Like its weird. When I'm not using the phone is perfectly fine. When I text or sometimes use WiFi its fine. And also when my battery is like under 30% its fine. But other times like when its full, it gets really hot. I'm using lean kernel ATM.

Anyone want to test that out as well? Would be helpful. Thanks

that would kinda make sense because when i use the adapter on the micro sd and put that in the computer and put some roms and some videos on it id say maybe 10 min to do all that. and then when i retrieve and go to put in the phone its really hot. so it could have something to do with that

Okay, I have been getting the sod on my gnex for a long time. Anytime I would launch an app after about 15 seconds into it my phone would freeze and go into sod. I flashed back to stock and sprint replaced my gnex so when I got it I kept it unrooted for a while to see if it was because I was rooted. Same thing happened while I was unrooted. I thought to myself let me use the stock battery to see if the problem might be the extended battery. Sure enough while on the stock battery the sod's stopped. Its been a day now. Has anyone else experienced this, heard of it or can it be possible? Thank you.

Sure. If the battery is unstable and cannot properly sustain its voltage. You say it's reproducible when opening apps. Generally this action will cause the kernel to temporarily increase the CPU frequency and voltage, if the battery cannot deliver, I imagine this can affect Android in multiple undesirable ways

Yep, it was just heating up pretty bad compared to me OG evo. I flashed over to CM10 to try it, so far it hasnt really heated up. Only when playing the games, i just wish we could get this stupid camera issue fixed. That makes me want to go back to Lifeless.
check out spleefs AOKP rom, my temps have gone down significantly from the stock rom which would get hot AF
Mines cool with stock but with aosp its hot AF
It's a glass phone with a quad core processor i think you can figure the rest out.

True
This issue seems to vary from person to person there seems to be no "fix-all" solution. Personally the only time my phone's ever gotten absurdly hot for no reason was when I ran the first build of Cyanogenmod for this device. On stock it took some nasty 108 °F weather to make my phone boil. By now though my phone always stays reasonably cool AOSP or not. You can try changing governors or whatnot with a non-stock kernel or maybe even try eco mode if it isn't already on. That's all I can think of.

Mine's been getting really high temps too, even while just browsing the internet!
At some point while I was flashing a rom, it crashed and gave me a soft brick.
It was hell to remove the back and now I even accidentally detached the connector that hooks up with the battery!
I can still charge it (sorta) but my battery is all glitchy.

My phone reaches 120f when playing game but averages 90-100f, its fine
I've noticed that only Stock ROM's have this problem. When I go from Stock to CM, I notice the change of temp right away and vise versa. I get the worst heat from charging. I have a 2.1A home charger and charges the phone quick on CM but with Stock it heats up to almost 130F and doesn't charge at all. There is something wrong with Stock. (I tried Lifeless, VectuS, & nexOGen).
