So many possibilities I don't know where to tell you to start.... Could be hardware such as a bad battery, not as likely so I would start with some tests to see if you have a poorly coded app or if something in the framework is conflicting. Possibly something on sdcard causing issues, could be an overclock issue.... Well can you remember anything you did around this time when it went bad, coincidences are rare enough that chances are you inadvertently did something.
Try pulling a log cat to debug the issue or get an app that can track issues for you, or just wipe SD, wipe phone, and reflash

Phone over heating while being used on the mobile data

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 ....

Xda app

Anybody else have problems using the premium version? Even with 4g it won't use my data to access anything. It won't even connect... is it going to be updated or should I just lie down and cry that I paid for something no longer receiving updates and use tapatalk?

I have issues with it but i keep tapatalk on hand
©HATAZ GON HATE BUT IM STILL A G THO™
Been going in and out for me for weeks. You're not alone.
The xda app has lots of issues. It doesn't start properly and also takes forever to refresh when it does work. I'm very disappointed in the paid version. I use the app constantly, and still hoping for a fix

Think a few nights in a row they were working on improvements that is why I could not connect. This was a few days ago. Could not connect on a computer either. I'm sure we will see changes..only time will tell.

Is it possible to bypass the auto shutdown due to temp?

It's there any way to disable this? I am on stock ZVB rooted with I.A. installed. My phone will shutdown due to temp constantly, especially now that the weather is getting nice out. This is getting to the point of being a deal breaker with this phone. Will a custom ROM help? I love this phone but this is getting to be unacceptable...

Never heard of such a thing. Try a kernel mod app like Fauxclock or Tricksters mod. Might make all the difference. I swear by Faux's myselff, and have great performance, battery life and no added heat.
There is but it's not recommended. The phone shuts off in order to try and make sure the heat does not damage the hardware permanently. If you're phone is shutting down that often due to heat then it sounds like you need to get it replaced. I've never had it shut down due to over heating, even after hours of playing a graphic intense game with the screen at max brightness and charging..

Thanks for the info. Glad to hear that you can play games/charge/etc.. cuz I couldn't even play Ingress and have BT enabled for more than a few min if it was above room temp outside.
I was wondering if it was just my phone, which it appears that it is. I will take it in as I have the BB ins. I hope it's an isolated issue cuz I do really like this phone.

Got my LGOG replaced at BB and it is definitely better! Its kinda sad that I feel like this is an upgraded phone but it seems faster, smoother and overall better. AND no more shutdowns! Tho I'm paranoid that it will, it finally runs CF bench no prob.

Help please

It doesn't seem to matter what rom I'm on my phone randomly just shuts down about five times a day. Does anyone know what could be causing this? Thanks!
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
What roms have you tried and what are you using now? You did a clean installation right? Factory reset, wipe cache, and dalvik cache?
What did you do before this happened?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Yes I always do a clean install system wipe, factory reset, clear cache etc. I've used about every Rom I think... the only one I can remember not having this issue was darthstalker x1. Right now I'm on stockaroma version 2 and it happens all the time. I even odined back to stock and reflashed and it still happens. I like multi window a lot so I hate to go backwards.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Have you tried to Odin back to stock and NOT flash a Rom?
If not, give it a shot and let us know.
Also, it could be your battery has finally given its last. If you don't know someone with an s3 go to a T-Mobile store and they should have one you can test with.

Now that I think of it, I'd get the battery checked before flashing anything else.

Yes when I was on stock it actually shut down during the first boot. I did notice that after flashing cyanogenmod 10.1 I charged it all night and it was at 100% charge but as soon as I unplugged it then it instantly dropped to like 10% that only happened once though. I guess maybe my battery it's jacked...

Are they able to check batteries at T-Mobile? I'd hate to buy a new one they're pricy if that's the case I might as well pick up a gs4.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
They should have a known good one you can try. Plug it in and see if the reboots quit. No idea if they'd let you borrow it for a day, but I don't see why not.
If it dropped that quick though, I'm pretty confident that it's related.

it could also be that you need to clear the battery stats, my brother in law has had that issue many times after flashing CM on several different devices, but it could still be a jacked battery, am a licensed electrician and i can tell you while it does happen often for me because we buy so many products (obviously) that we get bad items directly from the manufacturer.
How can I clear the battery stats? I used to do this all the time under advance in clockwork recovery but I don't see it there on this phone. Thanks!

dont worry it should, if not i know its been a year but tmo should replace it under faulty equipment, i have had phones replaced for faulty equip. two and three years later, dont forget to go back to stock and reset binary and flash counter.

So the battery didn't help at all. Just for fun I flashed darthstalker X1 again and it seems to be working fine now. Weird... I'll try to get to the bottom of this but I'm boggled.

One more thing it was doing was when I'd turn the screen off it would always come back on. It would do that two or the times before it would stay off then half the time the phone crashed. It's not doing that now either and I had that trouble on several different roms.
