The past 2 weeks or so, My VZ GNex has been getting really hot. Not warm. HOT.
I am running stock 4.1.1, with 12GB free memory, and 200MB of RAM being used.
I have only the bare minimum of apps running in the background, and am on Wifi. I keep the screen brightness on Auto or Halfway.
Usually I will notice it when I take the phone out of my pocket, but today the phone was just sitting on my desk and it was hot when I picked it up.
If I happen to watch a video or play a game on Wifi or 4G I can barely hold the phone because it heats up so much.
My battery also gets zapped when this happens. I checked my battery usage, and aside from the Screen and Android OS, my Exchange email client was pulling in a lot of juice. I changed the update settings from Push to 15 min intervals, hoping this would calm things down, but it hasn't seemed to help.
Again, I have only noticed the phone getting hot within the past 2 weeks or so...
Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this, or has any suggestions as to what may be causing it to heat up so much.
I have had the random reboot issues that some others have had, but the phone has not yet restarted due to it overheating.
Thanks in advance for any help!
