My moto g2 heats up alot. Is it normal? I play bounce ball which is a low end game so i don't think it may cause so much of heating. 1st i thought my phone is heating cause i use to play this game while charging my mobile. But without charging also it happens. When i use normal apps like whatsapp, fb, etc still it heats up. During call also i feel lot of heat on the ear piece. Is it normal or i need to get it checked?

A corrupt file on the SD card (usually a media file, like a photo, video, or music file) can cause overheating, because it makes the system's Media Scanner get stuck scanning it. Try unmounting the card (in Settings>Storage), removing it, and rebooting. Insert the card into your computer's SD reader, and run chkdsk to look for bad sectors: http://forums.androidcentral.com/am...guide-using-chkdsk-fix-corrupted-sd-card.html

No issue with sd card. Any other solution?

Check in your battery stats if any process or app is using more juice than expected. Using an app like Gsam could give you more details.

Charge completely your battery, use it normally and check the stats when there's about 30% left.
