Phone getting HOT

[papabear_ken]

Anyone else having this problem? I've turned the backlight down and that doesn't help. . I'm afraid I might have to stop playing :(

It means you have to many things running on your phone and your basically overloading it, you should close all other stuff your not using

[cafemochaaa]

When you double click your home icon, delete all those extra tabs

It just means you're playing way too long

[cafemochaaa]

U should be able to play an unlimited amount of time

[jellypie200]

Well if you're playing longer than four hours it gets hot

[jellypie200]

So when it gets hot remember to turn it off and wait a while and get back on

[cafemochaaa]

I guess so

[cafemochaaa]

You shouldn't be playing that long any way

I have the same problem with my phone...I am constantly closing my apps so they won't drain my battery so that can't be the issue. My phone can be charging or not charging, and it will get hot. I could be on it 3 hours, other times 20 minutes, and other times it could have been sitting on my desk unused for hours and it will heat up.

I've done some research on this make and model (Samsung S3), and apparently its a common issue.

At times my phone won't even take a charge, and I've tried numerous chargers.

The best thing you can do is install a task ****er if you don't have one already, and turn down the brightness on your screen...hopefully that can fix your issues. If not, then it might be a problem with your phone.
