Hello friends,
I have an HTC one m9 with the latest updates (at least that is what it says when I go to "About" on the settings menu and try to update it"). I have been having heat issues with this phone since the day that I got it. At first I thought it was a hardware defect so I returned the phone and got a replacement. The day after I sent in the old one, and before the new one had arrived, HTC released an update that was supposed to fix the overheating issue. The new phone arrived and I updated it and it did not have the same problem any more. Yay! Except the new one had a bad battery and given the fact that the case was not easily opened to replace just the battery
I returned the phone again and got ANOTHER replacement. I should have realized the initial series of events was a bit ominous. But, I loved the phone. Besides the overheating issue and the charging issue, it is fantastic. It runs smoothly, has plenty of space, looks great (not that you can really tell with the case on, though) and I have had less problems with it than any other elctronics I have bought in a long, long time. I was so happy about the update - until the overheating problem started again. I did a factory reset and still have the same problem. If I leave it charging overnight it is nice and cool in the morning. As soon as I start really using it it heats up to as much as 125 degrees Fahrenheit. It averages around 111 degrees. So, I have to figure out how to fix this because at this point I cannot get a different phone. Please help me troubleshoot this! I do not know if it a rogue app or a system process or what. I have messed with it a little - disabling things here and there and changing some settings but nothing seems to make much of a difference. Given that it only started again a couple days ago and that I have been using new apps and customizing, I am pretty sure it is a software conflict of some kind. I will be happy to give you guys whatever information you ask for in order to solve this issue. I'm pretty determined and, at this point, interested to know what I have done to cause such a problem. I know these phones are prone to overheating issues to begin with so I can't totally blame myself. But, given that it was working fine for awhile, I need to discover the culprit and take it out swiftly and silently like a ninja in the night. My phone is not rooted and I would like to avoid rooting it if possible because I know myself and I am too eager to discover everything about my electronics that I will probably brick it very quickly. I'm sure I could reverse that problem but I don't want to keep resetting it. I just got my husband's old galaxy 3 to root anyways, so I can learn off that one without having to worry about not having a functioning phone in case of an emergency. So cmon guys - open sourcers, developers, whoever else wants to help let's figure this out! =)
Thanks so much in advance
