I have a V800 flashed to R1Y/Z800i firmware. Have also experienced the back/battery getting pretty hot. But in my experience it only happens when using GPRS over 3G/UMTS. Especially with streaming video over 3G/UTMS. But it may be that browsing GPRS over 3G/UMTS is enough. To me it seems that when V800/Z800i is working hard with data over 3G/UMTS it sucks the battery pretty good, giving that warm feeling  This also reflects the reduced operating time in the specification when using 3G/UMTS vs GSM. Just my 0.02€. |

Best solution to reslove this would be to plunge it into some ice cold water.

@solidsingh
yeah it is m8.
@others
Yeah I've noticed that it gets hot when browsing, using net, listening for a while, but if you take the battery out for a second and put it back in it cools down by 100% =), its only happened to me once since I got it. |

Its the 3g data speeds that heats up the phone, coz its so fast...
I once had an extra long video call couple weeks ago and had the phone on my bed without touching it and when i ended the call and picked up the phone it was boiling HOTTT...try it.
the moto e1000 reaches very high temperatures..the highest of 3g phones, had a mail bout this from our SP... think i deleted it. |

Although these 3g phones seem to heat quite a lot and manufacturers seem to think is normal....i dont believe it doesnt affect the CPU operations. I mean think about it. Your CPU performs better when its properly cooled. Im looking for a zalman cpu cooler for my phone

I've heard before tat 3G phones in general tend to get hotter than 2G phones. This could be it.
Mine gets very hot when i use it as UMTS modem for my PC. Not when browsing the phone itself though, but that's probably because I don't do it for long periods of time, as opposed to having it as a modem........

iv got a s700 and to compare the two temperatures id say the v800 reaches to about 60-70 degrees... just a rough calculation.. |
