Overheating Issues?

Hey there those who already have an HTC One (from Clove or some other source), are you experiencing any overheating issues? I've been playing some Real Racing 3 on mine and the phone overheats really fast. It doesn't do so for other things or other games (though no other game I'm playing is as graphics and processor intensive as RR3).

Also, anyone else finding that the phone drains more battery with power saver on than otherwise? That apart, I'm completely loving this phone's battery life. I keep my 3G on all day and my work forces me to be on several calls. I come home and play some games for a while and even then the phone has 30% odd battery left. This is great for me because I'm keeping data on only to check the battery life- usually I keep data off. I rooted the phone the day it arrived but before I did I noticed that most of the battery consumption was being done by HTC Sense- so that's a note for you all. Installing Apex or Nova Launcher fixes that problem however. But I'm waiting for JB or AOKP ROMs, then the battery life will get even better. And Key Lime Pie in June might make things beautiful.

I ordered the phone with the HTC flip cover as well. Mine doesn't fit on to the phone completely tight but there is no uncertain or fragile feeling- the phone sits in well and does not come out unless pulled.

HTC Zoe is just awesome, and it's made my otherwise boring galleries into great fun. My fiancee and I agree that just the 30-second photo transition video Zoe made of our engagement was better than what the photographer churned out.

Phone definitely is a stunner, and people keep asking me about it when they see it in my hands. It kind of feels like sitting in a Porsche or Bentley on a Delhi signal light! :p (or having a Pulsar 200/220 back in the good ol' days..)

It's superfast on Sense 5.0 based Android Revolution HD 3.5....I can't wait to see what it does under JB or AOKP!

The back button-home button-no menu button configuration does not really become a problem because all apps I'm using have an in-app menu button. It became an issue when I installed Apex Launcher. On my previous phone (Desire HD), the menu key would pull up the Apex menu and I used to have my settings, screenshot, manage screen and other shortcuts on that menu. On the HTC One this wasn't possible when in homescreen because there was no menu button. For those who will be brave enough to root their phones (like I was :D) there is an Xposed mod out there that enables a long press of the back button for menu key.

I ordered my phone from UK, and the TV app that came installed on the phone for its IR blaster does not have India as one of the selectable countries. I'm hoping that once the phone launches in India I will be able to update that app and start using this phone as a remote for my TataSky!

My father own's an iPhone 5. Some five-ten minutes after he examined my new HTC One he asked me, "Exchange kar lein kya?" ...Of course, I politely declined that iPhone even when he got it and offered to give it to me, so there was no way I was turning in an HTC One for it!!

I was unable to find a way to insert settings toggles into the notification dropdown, and that feature seems absent from Android Revolution HD 3.5 as well. Anyone has a solution? (apart from installing a different ROM)

Anyone has any questions about the phone, do let me know...
