Overheating issues? - HTC Amaze 4G

Anybody feel their amaze getting really really warm, almost hot? Kinda makes me not wanna use my phone a lot just because the heat might mess it up.
This happens around 15 mins of usage.

I haven't had that issue even under heavy use like games, videos, and web.

It may be an app or apps constantly running. Do you check your task manager often? U may have to kill some apps. Also is it charging when you use the phone? I know it gets hot quickly that way.

Really depends on what's running. When you first initialize the phone it's going to get hot as it syncs and updates everything but that should pass. If you have location enabled and use the gps, it will get hot, if you use maps and the screen is on, it will get hot...just check it for whats running and delete whats unnecessary. Of course I'm waiting for the root to really delete the crapware.

My amaze has been overheating it feel's like it's on fire randomly sometimes , even when im not on apps .

Mine gets really hot too.. not quite but almost too hot to touch. It's not even plugged in when it happens and its just from playing music it charging.. no heavy usage. Hopefully it'll disappear once we get some roms with no bloatware!

Yeah I experience overheating last night. This is by far the worst ive come accross on any phone. I may go to t mobile and look at the galaxy s2. I love this phone but too many problems for me

I can honestly say that there is no overheating issue with the GS2. I even have this phone plugged into the charger while browsing the internet and the phone is not overheating.

Thats exactly what i experienced using my amaze. Charging and using it i have no overheating issues. I guess its just the luck of the draw with these two phones. No phone is perfect though and i think both these devices have great features and potential.

Yeah, both phones are great. Its just with finding the right fit for you. I chose GS2 because I figured we would have a larger dev community, its lighter because of its plastic design and Super Amoled+. The downside of this phone is its resolution, but I don't notice it that much for it to be a big con. I heard some people actually rather the hefty-ness of the Amaze. I'm not gonna lie I love the design quality of it. HTC is always known for gorgeous designs.

Exactly. Finding the right fit for "you" is correct. I came from a vibrant and didnt wanna deal with twiz anymore. I had my ups and down with that phone and i figured i'd give htc a try since i had samsung already. Tbh im happy with the amaze and i know u happy with your sgs2

Definitely happy with my purchase. This phone fits my exact needs. I'm surprised that your not getting overheating issues though. Most of my HTC phones with metal built in or around them had overheating issues after a few minutes of operating them.

Im actually suprised also. Smart phones do get warm when using alot but i might have got lucky because im constantly plugged in and doing something on this phone. My phone hasnt been above 98 degrees f yet. And thats while cruising the net or playing eternity warriors. I dont have any hd games yet so i'll test again when they become available to see if the phone gets real hot.

I guess you definitely one of the lucky few cause my myTouch 4g, G2, Nexus One, HD2 and Sensation all heated up. I know all phones heat up when in use, but the GS2 won't even get hot on the charger while in use and to me that's amazing. I'm glad you enjoy your phone and your not experiencing such issues.

you also have to remember 2 things though.... 1) the unibody designs always conduct the heat to the outside of the phone, although its operating at the same temp of most phones, the reason you notice it with the newer htc models is cause you can actually feel the heat cause of the unibody... 2) the sammys are all plastic, which doesnt conduct heat too well, so although its getting hot inside, you dont feel it. they both prob run at close if not the same temps, but you can just notice it more on the htc... thats all.

The USB port that's basically it. Also battery life sucks for me as well.
This phone was pretty well built other than the GPS sucking, but I don't use it that much nor do I actually have big problems like others.
We also need more love from Samsung so we can get a Gingerbread leak going

Cuz before we use to plug in the phones just to charge them. Now every time you log in to XDA (or your favorite Devs. forum) there is some new **** you wanna install in your phone....plug-unplug...oh I just found this new cool wallpaper...plug-unplug...new ROM...plug-unplug...new kernel...plug-unplug...new (you get the point). You probably plug-unplug your phone 10 times during the course of one day. Back then it was just once every 2-3 days to charge. Don't say they make them cheaper now, they just get abused now.
...Oh yeah, almost forgot. My biggest problem (besides not getting GB for the Vibrant) is that when I wanna take a picture in a dark place I noticed I'm missing that little small LED light that shines when you take a picture which most new phones comes with....what is it called???...oh yeah is a ****ING FLASH SAMSUNG! WTF what is a roll of the dice? "OK lets see which of the new Galaxy S devices is NOT getting a flash just for the **** of it...roll it"...OR.... "Sir, sir we forgot to put a flash on the one going out for t-mobile"...." **** them I have Verizon anyways, keep going"
**** lack of proper gps, **** bad usb (actually mine is alright so idk) but goddammit! Why the **** doesn't this have flash?
there isn't even a logical answer to that.

Making the switch to resound possibly

Current sprint user here using the photon 4g. Not a bad phone by any means but Sprint coverage sucks. I'm not interested in the galaxy nexus as every Samsung phone I've ever owned has had major issues. I see the threads in the nexus forum. And see the nexus still suffers from poor GPS and android is bugs.
The only other phone Verizon has I'd consider is the razr Mainly because I have the photon and they are somewhat similar software and hardware wise. But I listen to music a lot on my phone and the resound just seems like a good choice.
Few questions, hows the GPS? Hows the performance? Any lag on sense? Speakerpbone loud?? I had a EVO 3d aand returned it the day the photon came out. It had a horrible camera, GPS was spotty, speaker phone wasn't loud at all and sense just lagged from time to time.
I have had great success from HTC in the past except for the EVO 3d....
So help me make the jump.lol
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
Razr is a POS, lol.
On a serious note, the Rezound is a solid choice if you are coming to Verizon. No one has stated any issues with GPS accept the device has gotten hot for some users. Performance is on par for best device w/o perm root. The speakerphone is decently loud. It is as loud as my X2 was at least.
+1
Agreed ... I have done my fair share of reading these forums and GPS lock and Speaker Volume are not on the complaint list. Heat if you get a bad unit and possible dead pixels (which would the same for every phone) are the common complaints.
Razr screen.. OMFG HORRIBLE Pentile!!
If you go to a Verizon Store to get the Rezound make sure you stay there if you can and test it out... Like that if any of the common issues show up your right there for a replacement.
Sense runs perfectly no lag (that've noticed)
I don't use the camera but other Rezound users love it
GPS locks in pretty fast

Exactly. Put me down in the zero-issues column. If I notice something, I'll search for a solution, but I won't go chasing after device hypochondria.
Agreed. I've had mine since May 24th and have had 0 issues.
The sad thing is is everyone will jump on board in a problem thread, but then again, those that are enjoying there new toy and have 0 issues won't post a thread just to say this is awesome.
With that being said, we are still within the first 2 weeks of launch, and only 2 days past the official launch date. The dev community is getting geared up, and there are still a lot of great dev's waiting to get their devices.

Evryone wants a perfect phone I been thru a lot release from the OG evo, to the 3d, iPhone 4s, and galaxy nexus, and man they all the same... Do you have dust under screen? Is your screen warm or blue? Do you see lines? Does your speaker does this?, people going over 3 iPhone or Evos and there still no happy, I seriously don't know if I'm just lucky or I really don't noticed anything cause I never had a problem like that, for example when the 3d came out they said the screen was tilted, I don't freaking now how much time you need to have to noticed that cause to me it was normal, or the "screengate" on the iPhone forums, idk man my phone is good best reception since og evo and talking and browsing the Web is amazing when you use it so I'm happy evo owner

Yet another useless thread...why oh why lord?!?
I know I shouldn't have even bothered with my useless reply...my apologies...
Mine would spontaneously reboot, maybe 5-10x in the first 24 hours I had it. Yes I did factory wipe. No I didn't restore any apps, root, or even install an SD card.
So I exchanged it, and this one seems solid, not a single reboot. I'm convinced there was something wrong with the first one.
With that being said, I love this phone.
I think I have a bum phone.
The stock browser disappears quite a bit. Text wrapping for the browser, gmail app and others isn't right. I have to swipe left and right to read.
Sense launcher has long reload times when exiting apps.
My screen is slightly protruded at the top right corner and the battery life for me yesterday off a full charge only lasted eight hours. Normal work day of checking emails, a few phone calls, browser look ups etc. No games or heavy use.
I'm going to exchange it as soon as I have time.
Stock not rooted or anything.
I miss the search button but have mostly got used to the dots.

[Q] I'm irked by this, and don't understand it.... (screen responsiveness and heat)

So, most of us have had our OGs go a little crazy responsiveness wise while plugged in and I've figured out that it's from the heat from our phones... Whyyyyy in the heck does the heat from the battery cause random presses on my phone? That's so dumb.... But, I know it's the source now because now that i've dropped my phone and have to get it replaced it has been getting super hot, and the spots where it gets hot will actually press buttons on its own. It's pretty weird because i can't use those parts of the screen anymore, it just won't respond to touch anymore but when the phone starts getting warm it'll do all sorts of stuff on it's own. Do you think it has to do with LG's "zero-gap" screen?
Yes.
The screen is super sensitive. It may be the biggest issue sadly.

Unfortunately, today, after no heating issues, my phone has developed a thin horizontal strip of screen that does not respond to touch. The issue seems to have materialized out of nowhere. No drops, no heat.
The strip is about an inch up from the bottom of the phone.
Luckily, the strip is thin and does not adversely affect my user experience enough to be a hindrance. Although, the fact in itself is bothersome. Hopefully, this will not spread out more throughout the rest of the phone.
FWIW, the strip is right across the Google search widget.

That sounds like the issue I have although mine only occurs on the home screen. I can't press any of the bottom icons unless I move higher. It works fine everywhere else.

This phone definitely has some quirks to it, but it really is the best phone i've ever had. It's the smoothest and fastest i've ever had, if it does start to bother you or gets worse, i'd take it to AT&T and just get a new one, not like you did something to make it happen so why not take a replacement?

Yeah, that is a common issue with all Android devices. I've read that it is a voltage issue with the USB cable, charger or outlet. If it's happening, try a different cable or outlet. That usually solves my issue. I had the same issue on my SGS3, my old HTC Inspire, and my wife's Pantech Burst... But it was by far the worst on my Motorola Photon. Random touches would happen while the phone was plugged in and it became unusable while charging.

My OG doesn't get hot at all, at least it hasn't happened yet. But I do get occasional scrolling issue, it would go from scrolling the entire page buttery smooth to crawling 2-3 lines at a time, and instead of scrolling the page, it'd open the app where my finger started to scroll. Turn the screen on/off usually fix the problem, but it gets annoying after awhile. I thought it was quick memo causing it, that was the first time I noticed it but then it started to happen randomly when the phone is on charge, I don't think I've seen it happen on battery though. So maybe it is related to charge/voltage issue.

Mine by no means got hot, until it was broken, but it did get a little warm just like any handheld device does after some use. Seriously though, if Sprint did get an update to fix it, then i think AT&T needs to step their game up..

1 concern.

So I ended up caving in and buying this phone thanks to your xda feedback. You may have responded to my topic before. I love this phone, man is it a beast of a phone for its contract price.
But anyway, only one small concern. This phone gets pretty damn hot. Is this safe at all? I mean for the phone.

When I first rooted, mine got scalding hot in recovery, so hot that it would shut itself off and not turn on until cooling off. Given that, it hasn't done it since the first couple weeks, and my phone is still running excellently with no signs of slowing. I would say don't worry about it.
Eco mode helps with that.

i've only had mine get hot on big downloads (or big uploads thru google+) i run hotspot at work sometimes i'm on bluetooth all day, texts and calls all day, using the internet a lot (ifunny! :laugh: haha) and it doesnt get too hot. i've run nocturnal, slick rom, stock, and currently running the 4.1.2 rom and so far so good...great battery life compared to my old phones too
