My S3 heating up whenever I use and alot of RAM usage...

[Pratik7]

Was wondering why my phone heats up every time I use it, because of this problem I haven't put a cover on my phone, please help with it. And also my phone uses a lot of RAM over 700/832, don't know why, have to clear the ram every now and then. Any advice?

perhaps you have a rogue (bad) app installed. i would uninstall all of your apps and reinstall one by one until you find the culprit.

Pratik7,
In a few circumstances (GPS on, screen on, mobile data on and using all of the previous for navigation; or playing a graphics intensive game while charging) it may be normal for the phone to get warm or even hot, but in normal operation (surfing the web, updating Facebook, playing simple games, etc) the phone should not even be warm. If your phone is consistently running hot there's likely a hardware problem.

Regarding RAM usage - Android is designed to use memory efficiently. Unless you have an app that is running wild, constantly waking the CPU and chewing up battery life, don't worry about it.
Reboot the phone once a day if it makes you happy...

Open Settings
Then Battery
That will show what programs are using power.
Screen and Android system are normal power users.
