need help for my samsung galaxy s4 overheated

[Emmanuel Vidaya]

does anyone here encountered this kind of problem and fix it?

last night i turn off my phone and charge it. after an hour i notice that its very hot. in sim card tray area and in memory card tray area. even the front screen suffer from that over heating but the battery didn't heat at all. the first time i try to turn on the device the samsung logo appears but immediately shutdown. then i let the phone cooldown for 4-5 hrs thinking the problem will be fixed. but after i try to turn the phone again nothing really happening. no vibration, no samsung logo nothing at all. and when i try to charge again it via pc and via power plug it's not charging and after 2-3 minutes the my phone is starting to become extremely hot again.



i already tried to press and hold volume down + menu button + power button
volume up + menu button + power button
holding all buttons + power button

removing battery and hold power button for 1 min and put it back again and power button

all that nothings happen.

can anybody here thell whats the problem of my samsung galaxy s4 i9505? i will be extremely grateful for your help. thankyou

Generally - there's a short in the phone.

Specifically? It has to go to a repair shop for diagnosis, but I'm guessing it's either the charger port or the motherboard. If it's in warranty, it's covered. If not, replacing the charger port board is cheap (the part is US$5, so the job isn't that expensive.) If it's the motherboard, it's going to cost. A good used phone on Swappa might be cheaper - check once you've gotten an estimate.

In some cases, overheated batteries can explode. Exploding batteries send hot fragments out of the phone. These fragments can spark a fire. In 2004, overheated batteries caused several fires. In most cases, the batteries were defective or counterfeit. The danger of overheating is greatly reduced by using a legitimate battery for your cell phone.

If you take care of your cell phone, the risks posed by the battery are minimal. Following a few simple rules will further reduce the risks. Do not drop the phone. If you do drop your phone, have it checked for damage by your provider. Avoid letting the battery come into contact with water. If the phone comes into contact with water, replace it and the battery immediately. Keep the battery away from metal objects. Use only legitimate batteries designed for your model of phone.
