If I use it more than 10 min it starts warming up.. 15-20 min and it almost burns to the touch. Is this a kernel issue? I do have a custom kernel running.. Could anyone recommend a kernel? I am currently running teerom

"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?

yea, that would help with setcpu. search battery temperature in the market, theres a bunch of free battery apps that give the temperature reading.

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.

In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.
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.
I just added a data plan , I was using the phone exclusively on WiFi,I noticed the device gets real warm when using the phone when the mobile data is on(by using the phone I mean, surfing web, streaming music and GPS navigation)
Is that a common problem, or it's just with my device, that I should seek help for?
Btw,I upgraded to ics through kies last month....

Do you have an app that tells you your device temp. It could be normal, but it's hard knowing if you don't know the actual temp.
I've noticed when using the radio vs WiFi, my device runs warmer. High 80's, sometimes higher if I'm running it a lot. WiFi always seems to run cooler.

As long is it is not burning your hand, then it's perfectly fine. Most phones tend to warm up during use. You can perhaps try a different kernel if you are rooted and undervolt, some people claim it helps. If not then don't even stress unless it hurts to hold the phone.

Thank you guys,I just downloaded a battery indicator app which shows the temperature, and I'm gonna keep an eye on it,
I've heard that temp should not exceed 130

The temp definitely gets Warner than the high 80s F ....

Just bought my galaxy nexus off of somebody on craigslist, and I absolutely love it coming from an htc amaze 4g. This phone is lightning quick and extremely responsive. I can see grain because of the pentile, and also have the purple issue when brightness is low as well as incredibly low speaker. I'm kinda worried about the limited 16Gb internal memory. Other than that, I prefer this phone over my friends S3!! I love this phone!!!!! My first Samsung! Nice to meet you all! Any suggestions and apps u guys would recommend? I

Only 1 hour?? Most people here get 3 to 4 hours screen on time, some I've seen even 5. You should go ahead and root it and install a custom kernel so you can adjust the color settings to fix that purple tint issue

You should be able to get longer than that with the screen on. Are you switching everything on at the same time? e.g. GPS, wireless, LTE (perhaps?), or perhaps having emails sync every minute... Even if it's heavy gaming you're doing you should get longer than that.

Lol no guys. If anything I would probably get 90 minutes maximum screen on time on my HTC amaze. the battery life on that phone was the worst I've seen in my life. Auto sync off, brightness at 10% , mobile data off, and just some texting.
Also I was thinking of flashing a either kernel, but the phone is perfect the way it is lol. What are other benefits from custom kernel?

You can change the color profile with a custom kernel to get rid of the purple tint. You can also undervolt and underclock for better battery life. You can overclock too, but the CPU is more than enough @stock for most tasks
First thing I'd check out is Jubakuba's sticky in the Q&A forum, all about unlocking boot loader, rooting, flashing ROMs, etc. Big timesaver is just flash bigxie's 4.1.1 ROM which is rooted, with busybox, gapps, and deodexed. Trinity kernel will let you adjust color, boost volume, and overclock (or underclock to save battery). People also like Franco's kernel. Another good flashable mod is Thyrus's Nav bar w/menu button, which also gives you expanded power-off menu with reboot and recovery options. (Does require deodexed ROM so won't work on stock). And you might want to try a replacement launcher like Nova or Apex.
Or you might just want to enjoy the stock Jellybean experience for a while before modding. Have fun.
Thanks for the responses guys!! I read around and I see I have to use Odin? I'm more of a fast boot command prompt type of guy lol . I'm scared to mess up nexus :/ is performance better with custom kernels? Oh boy I'm going to have do tons of reading!!! Lol.

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

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

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.
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.

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
