Hallo everyone!

So since a week ago i'm a proud owner of Samsung Galaxy S2 (yay!).
It had Android 2.3.5 at the beginning so 2 days ago i've updated it to ICS (4.0.3). I've updated it via ODIN (since it couldn't find updates via KIES or by air) with a official ROM (if that's what it's called) from samfirmware.
Since then my phone heats up a lot more compared to 2.3.5 , i don't know how's that possible but i haven't installed any new apps or used the phone differently since the update. I know it's normal to heat up when playing games but even if i'm browsing the web it heats up a lot. I haven't this problem with 2.3.5

Any suggestions?
 
Backing up your phone data and performing a phone factory reset from Android's Settings, would (usually) solve the heating issue... especially when you upgrade firmware from 2.3 to 4.0.

I did .. One before upgrading , one after upgrading , one a day after and one today. No difference... What's the average normal temperature of SGSII? Mine jumped from 31
