Samsung Galaxy S5 (T-Mobile) Problems [Overheating] - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5

I understand that the 5.1.1 update had overheating problems but those were semi fixed in a minor update. Still gets overheating problems sometimes when playing games but I think it's only because they were considered intense. Now I upgraded to Marshmallow (6.0.1) and i notice my phone overheats alot more. I'm just scrolling through webpages at 30%-60% brightness and the screen just becomes too hot to the touch as well as the back. It gets cooler but only by a little. It still remains hot to the touch with the screen off. What I did notice is that the middle left side of the phone starts getting hot. I looked up the phone on iFixit and noticed that it was where the CPU and the RAM warming up a lot. CPU temperatures could range from 42 C (107 F) to 60 C (140 F). Idling temps. could range from 40 C (104 F) to 50 C (122 F). I notice at least 1100 MB out of 1705 MB of ram would be in use which was higher compared to 5.1.1 (700 MB). The RAM usage is when the phone is IDLING. Also my phone randomly freezes or glitches so i can't unlock it so i will need to take my battery out.
Picture attached to show where is it heating up
Wondering if anyone else has this problem and a solution to it?

Z2 CPU temperature and heating on your phone

Hi,
since I updated my Z2 (D6503) to LP 5.0 my phone is heating pretty much. After 10 min. of using (doesn't matter how) temp. foes up to 38-39 degrees of celsius, and after using for a while like an half hour, it goes even up to 41-42 degrees (but it is also very very hot in room in which I use it).
So, I just wanted to hear your opinions about this, is it normal, do you have the same issue and can it be corrected somehow?
That's all, thanks in advance to all.
Mine's CPU almost hits 70 degrees celsius. Your temps must be battery temps, cause mine are the same.
38-42° Celsius? You mean Battery temperature right? My phones CPU was about 58-66°C after installing 5.1

Operating temps for Z5C and battery

As a new owner of the Z5C (rly impressed so far ) I couldn't help but notice the heat, courtesy of the SD810 I assume.
So i've started monitoring the temps for the past few days with CPU-Z and Cpu Temperature.
For the most part while doing everyday tasks such as phone calls, news, music, Whatsapp and so on the temperature is around 30-40ish which seems reasonable and causes no concern.
Whilst doing something more intense such as running a game, installing/updating app, or recording video the temperature jumps to around 45-60 which again seems reasonable.
There are sudden momentary (2 second) spikes to 70's 80's usually while doing heavy R/W tasks such as installing an app.
Battery temps usually hover around high 20's to mid 30's whilst doing normal tasks and during more intense tasks can jump up to around 40ish.
I was wondering if other users here who also bothered to monitor their thermals are experiencing similar results or not?
Also am curious to know if someone knows what the msm_thresh threshold is for the Z5C i've noticed mine topping at around 41..
Thanks
I have been getting pretty much similar results, albeit a bit lower temps due to disabling a few cores. Those temps are perfectly fine, as long as the battery dosen't get to the high 40's. The throttling stats when the battery reaches 43°C and clears when it get down to 41°C, you can find the throttling thresholds in the file called thermal-engine.conf located in /system/etc/

heating issue

sir, can u help me, my opx always getting hot, just open chrome battery temp. up to 46C, not normal, why?i dont use another apps, i just install clash royale, bbm, WA,in CPU-Z apk GPU Load always 0% its normal ?
i have intall much rom with wipe blablabla, but always getting hot
46 is not a a concern, although mine stays around 30° when idle.

do you have any idea solution ?can u share ss cpu-z with gpu load is working ?
You dont have a problem with your CPU temp. The only thing that could be causing the heat would be background jobs. If you're not sure that there are not unintended background jobs, just do a Factory reset. Stop flashing for a few and stop using your phone 24/7 and the temp will lower.
Phones and tablets with SD810 and atom x5-8300 can go up to 86 degrees, then you're sure the cpu will throttle (and performance will drop). 46 is very normal, mine went up to 60 degrees when charging and flashing, which is still no problem.

Performance Throttling Overheating Device Temperature

The lower scored benchmark is at from idle of around 40C (CPU temp) while the phone is in the room. The higher scored is when I placed my phone in the freezer and let it cool down to around 28C (CPU temp).
Why is the phone so hot even at idle? Do you r phones go as high? What are your ambient temperatures? I'm in a tropical country and it is around 29C here right now.
The battery temp is only a degree or two lower than the CPU. It's terrible for the battery to be at this temperature.
Mine is around 36 C after 30 min of browsing . inside room temp is around 22 C.
Yeah, Mine also get so hot like 40 -45 like your after 20min of used.
But our Poco got cooling system right, then why like that?
My previous Moto z play was not like that ?, It was only heat while charging because of rapid charge.
It's coz of that garbage of IU called MiUI. Every update it screwed something.

Looking at OP's screenshots, i don't think he's been using MIUI..

Mine is sitting at 31.0 degree celcius. Could be that you have many things going in your background?

General thermal throttling cpu is sunny device

my phone works a lot more when i was going to play cafdulty it starts to touch sometimes even at low with high fps i found it strange i had a cell phone with snapdragon 665 and it ran lizo on top and very high fps i started monitoring cpu when it was happening overheating the clocks drop from the nuclei from 2.2 gz drops to 1.2 and it happens these annoying crashes.
so I opened the device and inserted a copper sheet on top of the cpu and on the aluminum housing and it was very good, the locks disappeared and I can play on the very high graphics and the fps was fluid all games
I'm sorry if something I wrote is wrong I'm from Brazil I don't speak English
