In a word: No. I've had none of these issues.

My note gets hot as well, especially when taking a video for a few minutes. I only have a flip case so the back cover is stock. I assume the heat is from the cpu area (top left?) Under normal use heat is ok. I also noticed that the video recording and play back is not smooth, even with most apps off. Hopefully an OS upgrade will help. These N American Notes have the qualcomm cpu which seems to perform slower.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bbgt2:
Take the thing back and demand a new one, no it should not get that hot. I use the s**t out of mine (battery last 8 hours) and it never ever gets hot. I have a white one and the thing has yet to lag and is super fast, do not miss my SGS2 at all. Well, I do miss CM9 but now I'm getting O/T.

Take it back ASAP.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Ship It City:
just put that flip case on and notice it is getting pretty warm quick while using it for a while. i bought mine here in xda dont think i can take it to a store for return !!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Barry (NJ):
I can feel some warmth coming from mine right now, and my Streak used to do the same.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] roloracer:
I've noticed mine gets hot right below the camera when multitasking for a while, or playing a graphics intense game like shadowgun or dead space, usually right after I finish with the game, close it and it will be hot and will start to cool down within 5 minutes. I also have a speck candyshell case in my black note. I might go and replace it if it keeps happening.

Mine gets warm under heavy use, but never hot. Not using a case right now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Stevieboy02008:
Issue Fixed

ok here is what i did . i called tech support my luck ended with a very nice guy but he didnt know nothing about nothing , lol at least i got that feeling , i demanded a note in my account that will force the store to replace the phone , went down to the store explained to them that i was treated badly by one of their reps , they deeply apologized & i told them what tech support said which was 3 majic words. CUSTOMER / BUYER REMORSE PERIOD , which means you dont have to give them a reason to want an exchange based on at&t policy , NO REASON AT ALL, just tell them you are not liking this headset & they have to replace it no questions asked , once i said that they tried to make me happy & i ended up with another one plus some credits on my bill, plus a new Moshi screen protector LOL. thank you all for the help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] roloracer:
Do you think you'll be able to test it with some gaming, multitasking with a bunch of apps open and surf the web at the same time and report back if it gets hot or if it doesn't, I want to know if is a normal dual core thing or if is something bad with mine.

The battery cover gets very hot when charging, just after 15-20 mins this sucks... this will be my 3rd Note if I swap it out, still within 30 days.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] zdrew:
Hey rolo,

How hot is ur galaxy note after roughly 6-8minutes of shadowgun gaming?

I don't notice mine reaching a really high temperature,lets say "warm"? Not Hot as in really hot e.g. streaming HD movies for 6-10minutes.... Does ur note goes that hot by streaming HD vids?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bbgt2:
I just watched a 30 minute video on You Tube in HD (wow btw) (kony 2012) and my note got warm, just warm. Checked the battery temp thru setcpu app and it was at 88' F.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] zdrew:
I will check that video out and post the results to see if my phone proves to have a heat issue as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] zdrew:
Kony 2012 is certainly a brilliant documentary...would love to donate and get the action kit as well. Here's my battery report. Initially at 73.4F and reach a temp of 81.86F.

TS...did u manage to exchange ur note to solve this issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Stevieboy02008:
ok 2 & half days with my 3rd note

ok here it is , the last one i got was from a new shippment to at&t not the initial release , its working fine gets barely warm. not hot used it yesterday using the GPS for 2 hours drive straight didnt notice that it was hot or anything like that , so i guess the first ones that i had was just lemons. so im a happy camper now , will keep you guys posted if any of that change , & like i said if anyone just not too happy with their phone you have that buyers remorse period that you dont even need to give them a reason to why you want another one . thank you all for all the help
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] StarLog:
Maybe your battery charger is bad, mine does not get hot charging, just hot when I run 3 apps at the same time in the car.

WAZE, A OK RADIO, and DAILY ROADS VOYAGER.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Envy Diz:
3 different phones though, 3 different batteries?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] roloracer:
Ok so Im almost convinced that the mayor contributor for heating the phone isn't the processor, but the screen! My phone while in idle in my pocket sits about 84f, I surf the web for 10 minutes and the phone was at 95f, on top of that I played shadowgun for about 5 minutes on top of that and got it to 100f, now I took the case off and put it in my car ac vent with the backplate against it and it wouldn't drop temperature, flipped it over so the screen would be against the cold air and within one minute the internal temperature of the battery had dropped to 93f just by cooling down the screen, Im on xda now and it dropped a few more degrees, granted Im running an overclock kernel at 1.75ghz at the moment so that might add to the temps my phone is putting out, gonna flash the stock kernel back in tonight and test and see if there's any difference.

Don't know if you guys are noticing the pattern here, but if all the notes get hot then there's no point in returning them!

I'm guessing it's caused by the screen and CPU.

Cheched the temp on my note with 3 apps running.

Waze, Daily Roads Voyager, and A OK Radio.

The temp was 137 f. Too warm I think. Should I return it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] borijess:
While running GPS navigation my phone got to 46c (117F) temp. This was a 45min drive. Is this normal? This is my second note and I dont remember my original note getting this hot. It will get warm but not to this temp.

Well yeah it will get hot. Look at ur status bar, why do u have all those things running in background. How many temp notifications or battery percentages u need?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] roloracer:
I'm not worrying about it getting hot anymore since it's already obvious that every one gets hot, I'm gonna enjoy it and forget about it.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] StarLog:
LOL, yeah how many ?

I first purchased one, then found the free one, that shows more info. I wanted to kill one after the test, also wanted to see any differences.

I run 3 apps while driving, this is only a problem while driving.

Charging at the same time.

WAZE - navigation and social road ( usually shows me where the cops are)

Daily Roads Voyager - runs in background recording the road video.

A OK Radio - This is where i listen to a radio station not on the local car stations.

Is that overload, I do not think so, for a driving trip. I stop ALL 3 when I am not driving.

Don't get me as a complainer, I am so proud and happy with this Note, it kicks the butt off what I had in the past. Yes, ALL my past cells have heated, so I am not worried, just wondering if others gets that hot.

As I drop apps, and say run only waze, it gets only warm.;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] bbgt2:
Oh OK. For driving that's OK. Lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Bataga:
Driving while charging.....toooooo much voltage and bye bye battery. Will also cause your battery to run incredibly hot.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] californiarailroader:
No, it seems to be a common issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] StarLog:
So are you saying, when I drive and run 3 apps that use 4G, GPS, maps. data, I should not charge.?

It will drain much faster that way. Guess I could try it and see what happens.

What do you have to say to those that have a CAR DOCK, that is charging all the time. ?

BTW, batteries are cheap now days.

Note getting hot

I got my Note on 2/19 when they were released. Today, 3/22, I had the phone just sitting in my holster all day - not using it at all. I went to use it and it was very very hot - tried to call home - phone at home kept ringing but there was no sound on my Note nor on my home phone - then it kept going into different programs all on it's own. I know that is not at all normal. Is there an issue with the batteries on these phones? I am going to AT&T tomorrow where I bought this and hopefully they will replace either the phone, battery or both.

Can everyone who thinks their phone is getting hot use an app to check temps?

Curious to see what temps everyone is getting
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] djxcee:
My note gets pretty warm when using it for a long period of time but doesn't effect performance. I'll post back with results.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Skizzy034:
Mine too. I haven't hit 100F yet but I hit 99 while browsing pretty regularly. I haven't overclocked yet just kept it on 1.5 but I'm gonna try 1.8 to see if that has any negative effect
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] borijess:
I got to 117f with just 40 minutes of GPS. I exchanged it for a new one. The one I have now does not get so hot.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ARTAQaf:
my Gnote gets warm if:

1) i leave GPS on (i normally have it off to save battery power)

2) i leave Wifi off (this drains my battery bad, so i always leave Wifi on).

First of all, sorry to be a bother. This is my first post. I've been lurking xda for a few months but since I've only followed instructions I've never really had issues.

I'm trying to make a custom boot animation and it isn't working. When I boot all i get is a black screen. I'm rooted, using the latest Viperrom. Can someone please tell me if I'm missing a step? As you can see, the images are PNGs and I took out the transparencies.

Here is my code

Did you zip the folder with zero compression (ie store in 7zip)? Is there a hard return at the end of the desc? Is it going to the correct location? Is it named correctly?

I can look at it later for you

if it doesn't blow it up its all good

Thank you Dased! I got it working with your recommendations. The only thing is that at the end of the second animation there is some white flashing.

So I just got my replacement in the mail from Verizon a Nexus and they didn't send a new charger. It will not charge on my Revo's charger for starters. Now I found out my device has no sound when making calls unless I put speaker phone on. Kind of funny they are already overnighting me a new device but I figured you guys would have a laugh at that..other then that its an overall wonderful device. I love everything about it for those of you deciding which phone to get its an easy switch. I do like the devs and community a lot better for the Revo. That is the one thing that I miss. Nexus forums are a huge mess. Mt definately made things very simple for us Revo owners and I just wanted to say thanks for everything guys!

2- if i install new custom rom will that count on as different 2nd device or that will b same device

I'd also be interested in this, was glad to see that the SkyGo app for android had FINALLY been released... but then :mad: to find out it wouldn't work on my SGS or TF....... There's no way I'm going to use an unrooted device, so either their is a way of tweaking it, or flash streams it is!

Sigh... this was mentioned at least once before. It's most likely a malware app.

Hi all,

I am new to this sect of the forum, currently own Samsung T959(Vibrant). Looking to buy another phone to play with on craigslist. I saw couple of them listed for $200. Need your true opinion and thoughts of the G2x. Thank you. Is $200 good deal?? most of them listed for 275 to 300.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
my honest opinion... if it is rooted and played with enough to find stable for you, then yes 250$ is worth it. I have a very stable and good working phone that gets about 16-24 hours of average use (for me) with data on always.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] eric7:
Thank you..what r the most common issues with this phone, i.e like on Vibrant GPS is our most common problem, what about G2x??
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
has reboots for some people I've had two myself one of which I was overclocked to 1.6 GHz lol... some people have BSOD (black screen of death) plug your phone in to charge it wont wake up without battery pull, issue I've never had. GPS, Wi-Fi, audio all are great for me... (don't use blue tooth) HDMI worked the one time I used it at a family members house. that's all i got really that are actual reported issues. I love the phone get alot of compliments on it. How I feel is: it's good enough for me to last at least another year, especially if the devs keep up their dedication on ICS and if LG will actually put out ICS for us.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] moeahmad1995:
He mt3g is bsod kernel specific? I had that like 5 times over a 2 month period using faux kernels? Never with morfic yet. And when I had it it drained the battery two. I've had 3 rebooted since launch which was in April. So I don't have that problem. I honestly believe 200 is a good price because there is a fix for everything on XDA that this phone have. Dev isn't like the vibrant though. We do have a few dedicated devs so its not really a big deal.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] redmonke255:
It definitely depends on your kernel and hardware. I was getting tons of bsods with trinity (probably need to do a full wipe) but I get none on faux ds kernel.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mackster248:
Awesome hardware.

Crappy software unless you root it and flash a custom ROM.

GPS is pretty ****ty, & unreliable. But works well sometimes, just not all the time for some reason.

512mb's of RAM just sucks. My browser and launcher always gets pushed out of memory frequently no matter what ROM/kernel I have.

Overall it's a decent phone. Doesn't really hold up to the newer phones that are out now, especially with the ones that have 1GB of total RAM. But it's a good phone to get on the cheap, so good luck!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mt3g:
Ya I agree that it is very much kernel specific just by what I read places, especially since some people can't even load a rom with specific kernels in them the phone just wont except them cause they are under-volted. Luckily I don't have any of the issues people report. Oh and the phone is pretty tough as well I've dropped it 4 times no case, on cement, asphalt, and what ever is at the bar I go to... I think that fake softer tile look-a-like stuff, linoleum... any who, no cracks and breaks just dings and dents lol.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] AndroidBotx:
Phone is complete ****. Dont waste your money. Save it for the SGS2. My wife had the G2x. 4 warranty replacements in 6 months. All hardware related mainly. Gps was crap. Random reboots galore. Laggy as ****. Screen bleeding. You name it. Trust me SAVE YOUR MONEY.

Got it from Ebay used $220.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] chrisram88:
I'm also one of the lucky ones that hasn't had a problem with the phone. The only problem I had was my battery would die right after it was charged. I replaced the charger and all is well now. Like most people have said, great hardware crappy software unless rooted!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] moeahmad1995:
Ohh I forgot to mention the sides scratch really easy, not the screen the metal bezel sorta around the phone. It was advertised as brush aluminum but I don't think it is. Some cases even scratch the side of the phone. Don't want you to get the phone and be surprised so be careful if u get it. Also like mt3g I'm very clumsy and I dropped this phone on asphalt concrete hardwood you name it, hasn't cracked yet
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mackpbj:
I wouldn't spend a lot on it. For me, when it works, its great but every single rom I have tried has resulted in either random reboots or "Black screens of death". TYhe battery life is bad too, you really need to setup alot of things to get the most out of it.

The phone does run apps like a champ though and if you are into pocket gaming then this phone is great.

Imagine buying a sports car but the radiator doesn't work all the time causing it to overheat and forcing you shut off once in while. also imagine that instead of a normal fuel tank, it comes with one that is half the size. you still got a nice sports car but it has problems.
