im still trying to figure out whether i have the overheating issue. because i consider my usage to be heavy so idk.
so i live in the sf bay area weather here is not too warm. i usually run netflix and/or navigation while driving.
the phone never overheats by itself however if i use nrtflix for a good hour in the car temps reach 51c maybe more. gps use runs around 42-47 c and standard running temp is about 39c
sometimes 4g shows running but itll stall lag or just stop downloading for a minute or two. and id do a bunch of stuff from airplane mode to a phone call but it comes back by itself when it wants
id be watching utube itll stop buffering wait there for a min then blast and buffer the rest at its usual 4g speed.
so everyone please report usage type and temp.

I've had mine go to shut down. 136F+ with my app i did some stuff to lower the chances of that happening tho. Its particularily nasty when you charge via car socket + gps nav.

Mine actually does ok but I use Waze and keep the screen off. If I leave the screen on then it gets wicked hot.

Sounds like you could have a bad battery. I'd try to get a replacement at the store, they might do it free. Usually it only gets hot during high processor usage, mostly in google maps/navigator and 3d games like dead space.
