I use nova launcher and have never had any heat problems with. My phone will generally get warm only when playing games
 
I like Nova but I ave been running the stock UI lately! I still have Nova Prime installed but I can't seem to let it go! It's just taking up space on my phone...no heat issues that I noticed though??
 
To add to the chorus, no heat issues with Nova Launcher here either. I just got my G4 on the 3rd though. I got my G3 a little while after the initial release (probably a later production run) as well and have had zero issues with it.

There's gotta be something more to this. Tons of people been running Nova for a long time now...

I've been running Nova Prime since I got this phone a few months ago, and used it on every other Android phone I have owned. I have never had issues with it. Did you try simply rebooting before you removed it entirely?

I also use Tesla Unread, FYI.
 
Sorry for the late response i had to work a double to afford these fancy phones lol Yes i rebooted daily i may have figured it out i was also using screen off and lock so i can use the double tap feature while using nova launcher ao im going to try pre-installing nova and the screen off and lock and see i hope its just that

I would install back all of them. Do that step by step. First Nova, use it for a day, then Tesla and so on. If your phone gets hot again check the battery stats and post the screenshot here.
 
I have a Note 4 with Nova and it does get warm. Just switched to Action Launcher to see how it goes

Maybe it was a different app going wild or some sync/upload process running in the background. Try to check the battery stats if the same thing happens again. Glad you got Nova back :)
