I set my screen off of auto and up to 90, i cant do dim displays, and every time i run antutu it shuts down. could it be this one device or is it all the g3's
just you
I have very hot weather in the office (AC works bad). And after OTA update my phone was constantly rebooting like 2 min. after startup. I turned it off, waited 5 min to cool it down and then it worked fine...

wow, such a grown up and not childish reply.
I starting playing golfstar which works the phone pretty hard. At first I noticed how much better the frame rate was compared to my s4, after about 5mins the frame rate went to crap. I can only assume the phone was throttling due to heat. I never got any warnings though
I dont have this problem at all. Was running antutu benchmark two times in a row yesterday with 100% brightness without auto activated, AND charging, and it reached 36C. And its about 27C in this room.

ya i think im going to the s5 or the nexus 5, it keeps happening, so im done.
Are you only having a problem trying to do a benchmark at high brightness or are you having problems with regular use? I use Lux for autobrightness and it's bright enough for me and I have no issues with over heating.
Also, I wouldn't downgrade to the Nexus 5 if you're giving up on this phone. Not saying it's a bad phone, but it's comparatively a downgrade. A G2 would be a better downgrade than that or side grade to the S5 or M8 or whatever it is the HTC phone is called.

it was during the bench. But i did a battery pull and ran 3 straight benchmarks with no overheating issues. But then i did the no lag trick and tried again with it powering down
So the next best device is the m8 you say?

I'd first suggest you just use the phone and not worry about the benchmarks. Benchmarks are meant to push the system so that could be why you're having problems. With daily use, even with the screen as bright as you have it, you may not notice any other issue. Give it a chance first.
And from reviews I've read, it does sound like the M8 is the next best. I almost considered it, but it's about the same size as the G3 with a smaller screen. Fortunately, I'm loving my G3.

Mine's never dimmed but it gets warm enough such that it starts throttling back to ~1.6 GHz. Definitely not hot though.
ya i was playing a game and it was def getting pretty hot

The no lag trick, is no real trick, it turns off stuff to keep your device save from overheating, so, that's why it turned off afterwards.
I've kept the stock setting and never had any shutdowns or noticed any performance problems at games or dim, it gets warm sometimes at long gaming, but that's it.

i got a different phone, from a different batch, the phone gets hot still, but not too hot and its not shut down yet. so far so good. great phone
If you are returning a phone because it will shut down during a benchmark, then why did you get the phone in the first place?

You are not alone. Mine can get very hot when playing games (especially when charging), and I have to stop game to cool it down.
The situation gets worse when dual layer case installed. I have to remove the case to cool the phone down.

I am sure mine does "thermal throttling".
When the phone gets hot, Quadrant goes down to 12,xxx.
When the phone cools down, Quadrant goes back to normal (23,xxx).

sorry, your question does not make sense.
I bought the phone because it had nice specs. i returned the phone because it was apparently defective. My new LG G3 has not overheated to shut down. got a little hot but not bad
I'm still wondering how are NOW the LG G3 are this moment? do they still have overheated issue?
How is the camera in 4k recording? is that fixed?

230c sometimes the BGA ICs fall off and I have to open the phone and reball the ICs and flow them back into place
I got my first SGS2 and it was really getting hot especially when streaming movies or playing games etc..i could not touch the back portion where the camera lense was. That phone had a 3g connectivity issue..so i had to return it..anyway while waiting for my usb jig to arrive..i bought another SGS2... using it the same way like my first phone, it never got hot till now..even playing games or streaming movies..it only gets warm and when i checked the battery temp..always showing about 36 to 38 degrees. On first phone, my record temp was 49 degrees and maybe it could have gone higher if i did not shut the phone down and cool it..

Got it to 45C tops, when playing heavy games continuously.
It goes upto 45 for me as well. I felt it very hot just once on the second day after I got it where I feel it went above 45. After that I've been using a cover so I dont notice the heat much and since that its never gone aove 40. Its better if you install some temperature app to monitor. Battery circle is good as it gives the temperature as well as the battery percentage remaining.
The reason it heats up so much is because there is very little gap between the components and the phones body since its very thin so the heat gets transferred directly. But it cools down pretty easily.
Sometimes it could also be because of an app- in my case it was twitter. I login only with Wi-Fi and I have disable data so it kept trying to connect and that heated up the phone. After that experience, I always turn it off after I disconnect from Wi-Fi.
My phone get's VERY hot, will also crash and a yet to be unmentioned thing, is that if I turn it off an hour or so it feels the need to automatically turn itself on again. Anyhow I will be getting a replacement of the phone selling it as brand new and be getting a new different phone.

My phone used to get hot initially when i used to use stock kernels... Then I flashed insecure kernels...one thing I noticed that when I flashed Chainfire's kernel, the phone tries to stay at an optimum cpu frequency even while playing games on it...I tested this using cpu spy... I found the phone rarely used 1200 Mhz frequency but still felt buttery smooth... when the phone constantly stays at 1200 Mhz, then cpu heats up, but when it is at 800 Mhz, it never heated up even with the heaviest usage... and ya, my phone is not under/overclocked
mine doesn't get tooo hot unless i've overclocked it or something, have a go at undervolting it, look at tekrak's overclock guide in android development for advice on that
it should help temperature problems, i hardly get them
I've done the air condition trick after it got too hot twice. But I had a doubt as to whether the sudden heating and cooling will have a damage on the phone and so stopped that. Now I just wait for it to cool down.
I've got it up to 55°, playing order & chaos over wi-fi, max brightness and connected to my charger supply.
Connecting it to the charger itself heats it up a lot so I can imagine what will happen over wifi with heavy gaming

Got this phone just yesterday. Highest temps i've had so far while gaming over WiFi and charging: +39C CPU, +42C battery. Before launching any game i take the phone out of protective case and set CPU to 200-800MHz.
The only problem so far is Pocket Legends that freezes every few minutes. I found the thread about it here on XDA and on official website. This game was the main reason why i bought this phone. Wanted to play it on high-quality, large screen... Sigh

One suggestion to keep things cool is dont play heavy games while charging, Let the phone charge while your asleep, and use it when your not.
This way you wont have to face heat issues(well at least temp wont get very high)
ive had my phone for few days, it gets hotter than any smartphone ive used before, even under heavy browsing while not charging.
I'm planning to get a case and concerned that the phone will fry itself while inside the case..
btw what program are you using in the screenshot to read non-bull temperature values ?
What is the program you are using please?
normal regular use - 35 celc
gaming/heavy use - max i have got is 45 celc
charging without use - 41 celc
charging with use - about 45 again.
id say mine isnt too bad.. i have a case on as well. without the case its about 2 degrees less on average.
program?
The first screen is SystemPanel App - Task Manager and the second is a custom widget from the Elixir app
so... no one with a higher temp? :-D
p.s. no case on mine

Well i would assume that playing a game for 2 hours solid would definitely make the phone hot, given the phone is so thin it feels hotter than say a phone like the HTC HD2.
I play some games but not excessively, i played Brothers in Arms 2 and Lets Golf today about 20 mins each game and the phone didn't feel particulary hot afterwards,in fact since ive had it (around 2 weeks) it hasn't felt particulay hot.
Overheating? Drag racing? Don't drive so fast
Seriously tho, I was under the impression the phone is meant to run quite hot? Not sure exactly how high it goes before shutting down tho...

Which android software you are using? I think its ICS problem. Same problem with my Sony Xperia S.
It was getting hot while playing games. My android tablet on ICS have the same problem but I play same game on
Samsung galaxy S 1 it was GB. It never got hot. 7 to 8 hours. It was never hot. You should use GB for games. Its my
Personal analysis. Hope its true.
its hot man ..... i got i got from a guy on the street and the cops are still looking for it ... i think it's super hot
now moving to on topic :
- the phone heats up a lot , not just the back even the screen . I noticed that it really depends on the game i play. for example if i play "granny smith" or anything similar the heat is ok . If i fire up Batman or other similar games that use grapghics a lot then i have to leave it a few minutes before i can make a call .. cos it feels really hot
i had this problem from the first day . But , i guess it is no problem that it heats up . Other phones do not heat .. it's true but such hardware it's expected to heat up this much
Try KH3 modem. It made my overheating problems go away!

I find it's a kernel issue...
when I have a good kernel that works well with the rom I'm running - then it doesn't heat up too much... occasionally it'll get warmish
Use your cheeks (on your face :meh: to test) -=or=- weird as it sounds your lips!! Don't use the back of your fingers, it'll feel warm no matter what!!
I've come close a couple of times to core melt down & had to pull the battery to remedy the situation...
A lot of things can cause this:
- Heavy games
- Bad mobile signal
- Heavy usage of browser
- Charging
Nothing to do with GB or ICS, the problem was the same with both.
Yes, it's the hottest phone I had in many ways.
Didn't you asked for that?
Didn't fry yet... and I doubt it will but it's sometimes uncomfortable.
Hi all
Hope someone can help with this problem.
Tonight my phone just randomly turned off. I wasn't doing anything strange..just texting. I sent a text and placed my phone down. Looked at it and hour and half later and it wasn't responding. I held down power and it powered on but noticed my battery dropped quite a bit.
I'm bone stock 4.2.2, no root and locked boot loader.

Mysteries like this one are not uncommon.
Text message couldn't be sent, phone kept re-trying, got hot, turned off?
Signal loss, connection derp, overheating, turned off?
Who knows. I'd lean towards overheating..
If it's only happened once, what's the issue? It could have restarted for a multitude of different reasons but if it's not doing it on a regular basis then it's not really an issue in my eyes.
Mine did this for the first time today after 2 and 1/2 months of flawless performance too. Really weird, wouldn't respond to any buttons,charger, or USB cable. No red flashing LED. Battery was at about 50%. Wasn't doing anything with it beforehand, it was asleep.
After about 15 minutes of nothing, it recognized the charger and booted back up.

I think the 4.2.2 OTA may have corrupted the battery stats file for some users.
I had a similar thing happen where it went from 30% then dropped to 2% after a simple reboot.
Based on my usage at that time, I should have had a lot less than 30%.
Now if your phone gets unusually HOT, you have bigger issues and may end up with the RED light of death

phone gets warm but not hot. usually when i'm watching a video it'll get warm.
My issue was different, no heat or battery issues. Was at about 50% when it blanked out and 48% by the time it came back.
If phone becomes hot, theres a defense mechanism in which our kernel will make phone run at lower clocks which eventually gets our phone into sleep of death. So try one thing. If ever ur phone gets hot, dnt lock the screen and keep it on a cold surface, and once it get cold, press the lock button. See the diff!!

Hopefully not! If you do, follow the guide in my signature.
just for good measure, i went back to bone stock 4.2.1 and installed the 4.2.2 update when it got pushed through and the same thing happened again. i didn't even install any apps - just what was in the factory google image. i was just lightly texting, locked my phone and looked at it a few mins later and it was off. this time my battery didn't change and i took notice of the temp of the phone and it was cool.
this only happened after the 4.2.2 update as for the couple of months of 4.2.1, i never had this issue. i've only had stock 4.2.2 for a little over a week.
i'm going back to stock 4.2.1 or maybe will try out a custom. if it does this on 4.2.1 stock, it's gotta be a h/w defect but i'm pretty confident it won't.
thx again all for your suggestions and help.
Just did a benchmark test on my LG G2 and the results are a bit disappointing. I found a post with tips on improving the Galaxy Ace [GT-5830]AnTuTu Benchmark results discuss here how to improve our devices .
Lest make this a post to improve our LG G2 devices.
I will let my phone be the ginny pig since I see my phone as such a disappointment.
Whatever tips you post. I will do on my phone and then post an update of the results after I done the update.
This way, others can see where the phone improves most and can decide for themselves what changes they should make on theirs to have the results they want.

Make sure you reboot to clear all background processes and let the phone sit truly idle for half an hour or so to make sure it's not going to throttle from heat. Unplug, too. Charging generates heat.

Ok, first I'll let it charge to 100% then I'll reboot it and erase all notifactions. Then let it sit for an hour while I eat dinner. And come back to run the benchmark and update the post. We'll see how much of a difference that makes.
Don't be afraid to run it a couple times back to back. Not sure how true it is anymore, but years ago when 2.0(?) debuted JIT and dalvik cache, people were saying that results improved as the cache and kernel "learned" or improved pre-fetch or some-such. I'm not that deep into it to confirm or deny but I just ran AnTuTu four times back to back and each run improved over the previous. 28k, 30k, 32k, and finally 34k...so the same still seems to hold true.
I let it charge to full capacity through the Battery Doctor app by KS Mobile. I like that app for 2 reasons. 1, cause it tells you how much time til it finishes charging. And 2 cause it has easy access to the battery saving options.
So anyway... after I charged it. I restarted it. Then let it sit for an hour. I ate dinner and started watching a movie.
I restarted it again. Acknowledged and deleted all notifications. Restarted again. And then ran the Antutu Benchmark app again. Then I got the results in this picture.
SEE FIRST ATTATCHMENT
and as I'm typing, I'm running it again.. and the RESULTS BECAME LOWER
SEE SECOND ATTATCHMENT
now... my question is.. how do we keep the G2 running at max performance at all times? not just right after a restart? cause logically after a restart other apps will start running in the background.. even without being in the notifications tray.. is there an app that blocks other apps from running in the background, and only lets them run if you open the app yourself? or is that an idea for someone to create an app like that.. instead of a simple task killer app.. an app that prevents other apps from starting up in the background.. get it ?

the performance is fine. I just want to get the benchmark numbers better than the Note 3.

I posted exactly the same thing as I have here.. and already two other people are showing better stats than the Note 3.
So I figure there has to be a way to push my phone to its max potential.. I want to know how to do it.
Its only logical to want to get the most out of a phone no matter which one it is.. we all pay a substantial price for them, right?
Gotcha. Wait until the developer kernels start popping up. Combine with AOSP and profit. I have no doubt that all the LG overhear, even without the obvious bloatware, is holding us back significantly.
I'm benching above the N3 and just running Malladus one.one.seven...
I dont get it.. I just woke up.. tossed aside the notifications.. and ran the benchmark.. to my surprise its showing over 34k..

Some phones are great to take camping because if you play Asphalt 8 long enough, the back warms up to the ideal temperature that can bake bread. Rate this thread to express the extent to which the Moto G5S Plus stays cool under extended heavy use. A higher rating indicates that even when playing strenuous games for long periods of time, the phone doesn't get uncomfortably warm.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
It heats too much while charging. Playing any games doesn't seem to affect it much but while charging, the battery temperature soars as high as 42-43.

This is issue with all fast charging phones. As there is more power being used while charging these, so they will heat up more.
Here are some tips to prevent overheating on fast charging.

Just curious, why would you be worried about how hot the phone gets when charging?

Why would one not be?! Overheating can reduce battery life. In the worst case, the battery can even explode.

If the phone or the battery is faulty, maybe. Do you think your phone/battery are faulty? Or do you think that you're more familiar with how to build a phone/battery and charge it properly than the engineers at Motorola? Otherwise you're just saying "I think my phone gets hot when it charges" which isn't very useful information.

That's what I wanted to know myself. I had created a separate thread to ask whether other people's phones are also getting this much hot.

True, I'm nowhere near the experts at Motorola. However, your logic is flawed. If we go by it, there would not have been 'any' need of bug-fixes or updates. Bugs are inevitable and that's the reason developers ask for feedback and bug-reports!

Isn't it exactly what the thread is for? I provided my opnions with a screenshot. How it's being perceived is up to the reader.

To be fair, you started with "it's too hot". Anyway, I'm not here to argue! My phone has now turned up and doesn't get all that hot when charging. I'll run it down to 0% and then give it a charge and see if I can get the temperature from the phone. I just took a bunch of test photos, got back from lunch and I now seem to have at least 3 camera-related updates to install so I'll have to shoot a bunch more tomorrow. The camera is by far the worst aspect of this phone which is otherwise very nice indeed!

Yeah. Actually, I was more concerned about that 75 degree celsius because that indeed is hot. However, a friend having the same phone said that his phone never crosses 38-39 degree!
Anyway, give it a try yourself too. And yes, it's because of turbo charging only, as several people mentioned. So, you'll observe the temperature rising up after about 20-30 minutes of putting it on charging.
I also observed that the phone gets appreciably warm if the 'torch' is used while recording video. Tried it on front cam.
I'll appreciate if you too could share the screenshot of the temperature screen on CPUZ app.
Regarding camera updates, I'm not into photography. But I couldn't find any significant change after the updates.

38.5 degrees c (and the phone is in a wallet style case). I'm using the phone at the same time, surfing, listening to music and checking out a bug about audio equalisation I just posted about elsewhere on this site. voltage 4200 mv, ac charger charging (but says turbopower connected on the lock screen). It's been charging for about 20 minutes, from about 35 or 40% charge (despite using it quite a bit today the battery is taking it in its stride. this is only the second time i've charged it).
I'll post back here if it rises to a silly level today or on subsequent charges.
