I have had my Tilt for about a month now purchased from the AT&T store and recently purchased Motorola's S9 stereo headphones. After about 2-4 hours of listening to music, my Tilt gets really hot. The wierd part is is doesn't get hot otherwise.

Is this unusal or has anybody else heard about this happening?

If it is recommended I return the phone (hopefully not) can someone post the origional Tilt software. I have downloaded alot of plugins I don't know if they will let me return it.:o

Thanks,... The new guy (Bw)

Which player are you using? All my phones in the last few months have turned hot while listening to music with the S9 including the kaiser, this is because when you listen to music via A2DP the processor works faster. I tested this on my E6, when i listened to music through wired headsets the processor was running at 207Mhz and with the S9 it was running at 312 Mhz. So I guess its the same with the Kaiser

I have been using pocket player and the windows media player that was pre-installed in the tilt, I get the same problem with either player.

Is there a fix for the Mhz issue?,..... besides getting another headset.

I haven't tried regular headphones yet, I have to buy one that has a usb type plugin.

It'll happen with any bluetooth headset. Dont worry its not a problem. Although the wired headset would be a solution. And it will happen with any phone not just the Tilt

That's totally normal. Bluetooth (especially a2dp) uses a lot of battery power. Battery drain = hot battery. Simple as that.
