My phone was sitting on the table last night my house is a cool 65 degrees and my phone is still running hot for not reason. This is what was shown when I turned it back on.

When at the Chicago Blackhawks rally (outside, hot day), my phone apparently shutdown while in my pocket. I reached for it to take a photo, and realized that I could not turn the phone on. I immediately figured that I had activated some resource hogging app while in my pocket, but it seemed unlikely as the battery was mostly full last time I had looked at it. After fiddling with it for a bit, I decided to take the battery out and try to turn it back on. This worked, and the phone rebooted with almost 70% battery life left.
I ended up giving this phone to my wife as she wanted a white phone, and I went and got a red version. Yesterday, the same thing happened to the white phone again. The phone was in my wifes (black) purse, in the sun, while she was in the pool. She was unable to charge the phone or turn it on until she removed the battery.
I can only think that heat is a factor here. Has anyone else had this issue? Is this a "feature" to keep the phone from over heating? Possibly a defect? Unlike an iPhone, the MyTouch doesn't say anything about it shutting down from overheating when it reboots.
Also, I've never had a phone shut down from these relatively mild heat conditions. If it is heat related, this phone is rather temperamental in regards to over heating...
Thanks,
Danny
I has to be a defective device i work in the sun all day few days in over 95 degrees and listen to music at the same time. Never had that problem

So, I decided to do S-Off and get the official OTA. I used the guide in the Developers/General forum (I forget which one), and everything was fine for the last couple days. Today, I noticed my pocket with my phone was getting warm, so I pulled it out and noted that the sync icon was going and data was going up and down. I figured it was normal, so I put it back into my pocket. I got back home and started perusing XDA to see if anyone else was having this problem, battery at 36% (about 6hrs since I took it off the charger from last night). 15-20 minutes later and I got my 9% battery warning. I did nothing but cruise straight to XDA with it. I hooked my phone up to my USB cord that I always have on my PC, set it to charge only, and went back downstairs to do some things.
15 minutes later I came up to check on it, and it still was at 9% battery! I turned it off and left it off for about 15 minutes before rebooting. It had gone up to 26% battery, I figured that was just fine since at least it was still taking a charge and I left it on. I went outside and washed the car, which took about an hour and 15 minutes (had a massive amount of sap on it and I needed a few smoke breaks). Battery is still at 26%.
Could this be the stock ROM I installed (properly, and exactly as the instructions said to) messing up, or am I getting the OTA?
Today my phones brightness was turned down by itself. So I went into the settings to turn it back up to 100% and there was a message under it saying my phones brightness was reduced to prevent overheating. When I changed it backed to 100% it would bounce back to about 50%. My phone was kind of hot because I was using it while on the charger. After it cooled down it let me change it back to 100%. I thought I would share because I found it interesting.
this actually happened to me the other day i was inside my car it was pretty hot day....
i think it does it whenever the phone overheat to stop any further damage
cool! i didn't even know such safety feature was build in
nice!
Hello all, I've had my Note II (4.4.2 Stock) for 2 years without much bother, but today it has started acting up. Being low on data and wanting to conserve battery I kept it on flight mode and then turned it back to normal every hour or so. So today when I got home it happened to drop but onto a soft carpet, not a big issue. The phone rebooted itself after this as it does when it's dropped and the battery doesn't fall out. So I waited for it to turn on and I almost immediately turned it back off for it to charge before I went off to gym. About 20 minutes later I came back and checked the battery to see that it was well above halfway already. I suspiciously turned it on and unplugged it and watched 65% battery go all the way down to 14% which doesn't bother me much as that was probably its actual charge level. I turned off flight mode and waited for the mobile data icon to appear so I could reply some messages. It didn't. I waited a few more minutes before the H+ icon appeared, the up arrow flashed and then it switched to 3G and went off again. It's done this every few minutes since then. I've tried everything except factory reset. Any suggestions?
I'm having a problem when I turn my car on in the morning. The device boots from start instead of just waking up from stand by. After that, waking up works just fine through the rest of the day. I thought the problem could be a faulty car battery so I put in a new one. It didn't make a change.
It's PX3 chipset.
Does anyone know if the device itself has some kind of battery or capacitor built-in? Or how the sleep mode actually works?
So, it seems it's got something to do with outside temperature. Last night was relatively warm (4°C) and in the morning the device just woke up from sleep upon turning the car on. When the temperature falls below freezing during the night the device starts from cold boot.
