That's really strange about the original note, as I still have that phone laying around. Have you tried completely uninstalling epsxe? Also, what game in specific are you playing while it's becoming hot?

Its strange really. I played fpse and epsxe on stock jb and stock gb I get still get the same heating issues with any game. Its okay hopefully when I get the note 2 i wont have run to this.

You should install battery stats pro, well the free, and run the game on a fresh battery. If the game is causing the overheating, then it should be consuming far more battery than any other app.

The first time that it had overheating was browsing with Chrome Beta. In this time, I went to battery stats and I saw that Chrome consumed more battery in 4 minutes than screen.

In other tests, I observed that when I play with Virtua Tennis, sometimes had overheat and other times no.

I'm convinced that something don't works properly en la custom rom and it causes overheating.

Today I will be try test a new stock ROM, specifically a new base poland... I hope that overheating dissapears.

Regards!

To stop your device from overheating, simply make sure you close all apps before you play the desired games and turn on power saving mode.

    Hello XDA,
    I have just bought Galaxy Note 2 (using the stock rom 4.1.2), on second day of use I have bought and installed "Need for Speed Most Wanted". After playing about 15 minutes the upper part of Note 2 (around of the camera) started to heat up then I have stopped the app so on that it have returned to normal heat. I am terrified, would you suggest me to bring it back to store? or it is normal? have you ever had overheating on your Note 2 before? :confused:
    (The mobile data was on, I was not running any apps on background, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi was off, brightness was full)

    Thanks in advance! :)

    Thats where the exynos processor is!
    It's a quad core'd beast phone without any external fans to cool off the heat. It would naturally get hot when playing GPU intensive games such as NFS.

    In short its normal for it to get heated that much and all should be well.

    Cheers! :D

    And also lower your brightness.. it eats alot of battery considering nfs is also a power hog.. they will make your phone really hot

    These are not problems, the heat has to go somewhere. The cpu operates safely even at temperatures above 80.

    If your phone suddenly gets hot for no reason, your cpu is spiking probably because an app didn't release its lock on a high cpu frequency. Kill the rogue app.

    Does your upper half of the screen became hot also when you play NFS?

    Yes. And the back around camera also. This is where CPU is located.
