So recently i got a htc one x but i was frustrated with the issues the one x had and and one of them was overheting man the phone was super hot when playing games it gos up to 54C and while playing a game you cant charghe your phone becuse it is going to overheat and htc says that is normal (maybe for them but not for me).So i got rid of one x and looking to get a GS3 so how are the temperatures in normal usage and in gaming my GS2 while playing GTA III is not going over 38C.
certainly NOT heat up, it will get warm when you shots video or 10xshots per second .

And what are the max temperatures?
There is an article over at Engadget where someone's Galaxy S3 bursts into flames and melts its own casing.

yeah i saw it that made me open this theard and i think the 2012 phones suck im thinking on going for the htc one s in the end god knows..
Only time my phone gets noticably hot is browsing XDA due to all the frigging adverts!
I seem to have found a combination of activities that can make it seem "hot"
I use a background radio streaming app over 3g, then if I play any kind of game - it runs quite hot, almost uncomfortably.
Mine stays at an average of 31 degrees consistently.

Mines' doing fine, base on SetCPU around 38'degrees for a full 30mins of Nova3 (clocked at 800Mhz, running all 4 cores i think) on my battery, not sure how warm my CPU is
Mine gets quite hot after using it on max brightness after awhile.

In usb host mode the usb port gets pretty warm >40c
Also, i'd imagine the cpu does get pretty warm given how much processing it does.

Samsung should promote this to the Alaskans as a combined entertainment/hand warming device.
so how are the temperatures do they go over 50 when gaming like 30-40mins like the one x i had my s2 while playing gta 3 wont go over 40c i played 1h and 6min
And how is the battery how much can do you get onscreen time? with one x i couldnt go over 2h and are there any issues with the phone like the one x had with screen flex/ripple yellow tint,hardware problems with wifi etc.. i realy expect an honest answer because i had the one x and it was only trubble dont want to make that mistake twice so im thinking galaxy s3 or htc one s
Same here.... Changed from HOX to SGSIII... The SGS get's warm while playing games. But it's ok... The HTC was f...... Hot.

I'm glad to hear that im not the only one that thinks the one x is getting sily hot when gaming aslo the phone overheats if you game and charghe the device at the same time
so its not hot as the one x?
what app youse using to find the temp ?
it is the battery that heat up. I try different battery, it give better result to cool down.

Just recently started watching netflix a little bit, and after about 10 minutes the phone gets ridiculously hot. It got to the point where I think the phone overheated and froze.
I tried limiting the CPU to 800mhz and set it to conservative, but it is still getting very hot.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Running ICScrewed v1.5.2 (I think that's the version, whatever the latest on it).
Netflix must be running the CPU/GPU at full bore most of the time while streaming content. Unfortunately there's nothing you can do about it - it's the nature of the beast. This device tends to get really hot in extreme processing.
I'm starting to be concerned about the longevity of it. I know it's built around the 32nm mfg process so it's quite efficient but the heat is outrageous for a phone...
My phone got really hot only top left of the phone when I played blood and glory. Pretty weird. When I exit the game it cools back down like nothing ever happened. =\ I'm thinking I just got the phone at the wrong time/place.

Nothing is perfectly efficient, and a product of inefficiency is heat! The more power you use the more heat that's generated. Just like on a computer, the more CPU/GPU intensive things you do the more your computer will warm up.

When I watch Netflix, I would say it gets a little warm - but I would certainly not call it hot.
Possibly another program(s) running in the background consuming additional resources?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using Tapatalk
The only time Netflix has heated up my phone was when playing on my TV over a MHL adapter, while charging, and pulling the video over data. Normally when I just watch on the phone, using wifi it doesn't heat up.
But as others said, that's a lot of power, and I expected some heat. Even at that set up, it wasn't hot enough to worry me.

I'm curious too. HTC says it's a 50% increase in battery life but we will be the judge of that.
HTC Sensation w/CMX JB 4.1.2
This may not be exactly what you're asking for but it's no worse than the Galaxy S3 I had. It also has a Power Saver option permanently in the notification bar that has no visible impact on performance.
I can't give an accurate figure yet but after 4 and a half hours of heavy use, constantly downloading apps, making calls, listening to music and using it to browse the Web at a relatively bright screen setting and it's still at 62%. With the power Saver on and my typical usage habits I have no doubt that it'll last the whole day without issue.

Battery life is immense compared to even a rooted custom ROMd HOX. This is my second day on power save mode and the second time I've hit 12+ hours of near constant FB + emailing with 33% left.

Having had the HTC one X+ for 3 days now....I really dont see much improvement. (very much comparable to my One X with Jelly Bean) As much as I thought it will (300mAh more), but I guess it's not much difference. Please note, I am not saying that the battery is bad, but even HTC one X with Jelly Bean already has good battery performance. I guess the extra 300mAh must have been cancelled out by the extra power in CPU. Anyway, maybe give it a few more days (more cycle) so that the battery is settled. Maybe then I can see better juice from it....but at this stage is unlikely.

I read also about other user he told that one x+ was unable to decode video via HW so, sometimes the image was not synchronized with the voice. Is that real?

For normal use should be really no problem. For HOX battery test on gmsarena gave 37 hours until empty with 1 hour talk, 1 hour video and 1 hour web browsing each day. So with HOX+ easy
I can watch MKV 1080p videos streaming from my NAS at home without any problems, just ridicoulos! btw: I use BSPlayer for that, don't know about stock player...

It's normal since the glass and back are really thin (its usually at the bottom of phone), mine does the same if you use it a lot and have the screen kept on
Nothing to worry about.
I would check your battety stats though and look for something called media, this scans your media making your s3 bit hot.

It's the CPU that's heating up, that's near the bottom of the phone, unless the temp is in the 70s (celcius) there is nothing to worry about. The CPU will automatically throttle itself if it gets too hot (can't remember the exact value on the Exynos 4400, someone will though)
If you overclock it will heat up more, demanding activities like playing games etc will heat it up more.
If you are really concerned you can download System Tuner, then in there go to settings, and choose notification packages, then you can download the temperature package, and enable it, this will show live updates showing the temperature of the CPU in the notification bar. System Tuner can be used as root to overclock etc, but to show information like frequency and temperature it does not require root.
If. Downgraded the phone and stopped it what would be the disadvantages performance wise?

Normal.
Just be glad it isn't an iPhone 4 or iPad 2, otherwise it would have self-combusted in your hands.
My S III gets REALLY hot when playing Asphalt 7, to the point of getting artifacts in the screen and eventually crashing the device.
I really don't care much about it. It is under warranty, so if I get any damage from that I'll harass Samsung so much they'll have to give me a new one.
When my phone was on ICS i never felt it getting warm while browsing the web, checking emails and changing system settings. Since upgraded to JB, I've noticed the phone was getting warm at the bottom (near the charging connector) 10 minutes after performing the above activities. The heat was definitely generated by the CPU, not the battery.
I used an app called Temp+CPU V2 from the Play Store to check CPU temperature. When the phone is on idle it hovers at around 25 degrees; after 10 minutes of use it goes up to around 35-38 degrees. By this point i can feel the bottom part of the phone was getting quite warm.
Can you guys test this and confirm whether your phones are behaving similar to mine?
Thanks!

first of all, sorry for my bad english. i just recently bought a samsung s3 i747, from amazon. since i have the phone, it gets really hot... even when im not using it. the normal cpu temp is 43* celcius.. and when is charging it cant be at 55 degrees... i cant returen the prhone to the seller because im in Venezuela and is a problem to send it. anyone could help me? what should i do?
when my samsung s3 gt19300 heats up, the screen is nolonger sensitive what could the problem be
I am a new user of HOX+ and I dont know if the temperature is normal or not. I'm using Elegancia ROM and use it only to play Candy Crush or Governor of Poker. My mobile data is rarely on and I often set the brightness level to the lowest. The battery temperature widget says it is running around 43-45 celcius degree, sometimes a little bit more. For me, that number makes the upper back part of the handset (around the camera) too hot and uncomfortable for my palm. Is the temperature normal?
What ROM do you use and how is temperature going?

Well it must be annoying. Ive read some articles about it and the problem comes from the characteristics of Tegra 3 overheating. I think that answer my question about it being too hot. I hope the the hardcase doesnt prevent the heat to go out
I been using for almost a year, it overheated before. In August I gave it to the services Center, when it came back. It doesn't over heat as much as it did. Max temperature so far on my phone is 50c,before 55.

Do you measure that temperature when you are playing games or doing whatsoever or right after you turn the device on? Any means or tool you use to preserve the battery temperature?
When i am just texting or browsing it is quite cool, But the heat goes way over the top when I then use it for games after that. I can feel the difference too much.
Is it related to the working cores or something?
I measure whenever I want to. No there's no such application to do that unless you underclock, but lose performance. Take it to the service Center, tell them to fix it, tell it overheats. Mine was first only formatted, then I lied to them about having other issues, so they send it to the company, and they replaced everything inside, when it came back, no more issues. I'm guessing an updated version of the Tegra 3 is released, which fixes overheating issues, so maybe they kept the new one in mine lol
