S4 Mini I9192 Duos Heating up

[drjamit]

Hi All. i recently bought Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini, I9192 after selling my Galaxy Note2 coz i wanted Sleek Device with Good Specs and DUAL Sim. Since day 1 i m having Heating Issue on my Galaxy S4 mini, Heat is Intense while--1. Charging, 2. Opening Web Browser or Facebook, Viewing Gallery pictures or Videos and Doing Subtle tasks like Making a Word Doc. I never felt it in my Note2. So i installed Temperature App from Play Store and Saw Temps--- approx 45 Degrees (110 Degrees Farenhite). It is Impossible to Keep near Ear for Calling. Any Solution ???

Mine gets ridiculously hot as well, I would assume that the 1.7ghz dual core and gpu inside such a slim device would heat up quickly anyway. Mine get hot while charging and playing high quality games.

If you're rooted and your kernel allows it, underclock the processor a bit. It will save you battery as well.

Mine stays around 45 degrees while using it intensively such as playing 3d games or charging while browsing the Web over cellular data.

Guess it's normal for all S4 Mini phones (I'm using the LTE variant)

S4 mini heating

Hello everyone, I brought my s4 mini gt-i9192 yestarday, after using it for some time I also felt heating issue.
the device heats up even while doing tasks like downloading apps from playstore and surfing net.
The heating is mainly near the battery (not at the camera like my s2)
I measured the temperature using DU Battery app, it was around 38-41 degree.
Usually I charge by switching off my phone... when I switched it on the temperature was 31 degree, later it gone up to 38 with casual use.
it is little uncomfortable to hold the phone coz of heating( mainly the battery).

3days

My s4 mini has worked less than one day on orginal software, it works abous 3days after the change to CM11.

Our phones are useless without modifying. Heating issue, battery drain and what not.

i've een using the i9192 for 2 days now, no heat issues.

I got two i9192's and never encounter this issue. You'd better check if the battery is faulty or genuine.

It's heating up a TON here... And usually after a few hours of usage and then leaving the apps in the background, like any normal android phone, it starts to heat up. If I reboot it, it goes back to normal so, I assume there's a software bug or something?

I am also using a i9192 and haven't encountered this issue of heating.But if your phone is heating up,use an app called COOL MY DROID.It is a free app in play store.It really works.I have used it regularly in my galaxy Ace.

No need to download any extra app if you wanna know your device temp.. simply type: *#0228# on dialer on stock rom there will show you some battery info :good:

And my device (gt-i9195) only heated up on older Firmware, like 44 ºc.. but on lastest ML1 there was no heat!


Some Battery recomendations (based on experience on older devices):

- Don't ever EVER! heavily use your phone while charging (like intense 3d gaming or calls) this will literally kill your battery lifespan.
- Charge it only with original charger.
- Don't let the battery fully discharge, this leads to heating up while charging from 0% of battery.

mine is also quite warm even when on standby. it is around 40ºc even when i'm not doing anything. 45ºc when i'm charging.

Mine heats up a bit on games otherwise it is fine. It's best to get it checked if under warranty.

Hi guys,

I have the GT-I9192 with Stock 4.2.2 - Build number JDQ39.i9192DDU1BLM1. A gift from a friend in India. Unopened package.

I have the same issue - or lets say i thought its related to the heat. On summer days CPU went up to 50°C+

In heavy apps (e.g. Waze) or after some use time (5min+ Skype) it just restarts suddenly... I cant say anything about games.

Sometime even during the restart it will restart again and again. So only thing to solve it is to take out the battery and wait for some time.

This was pissing me of a lot. Too much.
So i thought maybe a custom ROM might help. CM or something well known. So suddenly i saw this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2790789

As i am complete Noob i just tried it - but i had a lot errors befor flashing worked. These errors were wrong MD5s, no "serranodsub" device ... and so on.
Finally (after i tried more then 10 combinations) i used Odin3 v3.07 + philz_touch_6.09.3-serranodsub.tar.md5 + cm-11-20140629-NIGHTLY-serranodsxx.zip and until now its running really smooth.

Waze no more issue, Skype I try for longer time in the evening and report back in. But until now i m quite amazed.

BTW: maybe this is off topic as the heat is still the same but i am new and cannnot post in development topics
