I have not had any trouble with mine.
Best solution to reslove this would be to plunge it into some ice cold water.

If it's the battery, have it checked immediately. Have it replaced ASAP. Phones should not get hot even when used non-stop.

Maybe it has something to do with the kind of stuff you're browsing 
If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence of your attempt !! |

@m6 See thats the problem.. I do not want to resort to taking it back. They will probably send it away for service and i cant be forked having to miss it for like 2 -3 weeks.

ask for a replacement, and if you get more problems lateron, get a new one, maby other brand.
With Ericsson and Nokia gone: we must keep their spirits alive and buy JOLLA or YOTA |

I've heard of this before, although I haven't used my V800i for ages, but mine has never got hot.
Get it checked as soon as you can, as that could be serious. Apparantly its something to do with the fact that the phone is quite thin for an older 3G phone which apparantly caused overheating before. But I'm not sure.
Get it checked!

Took it to the citypoint and apparently its a common problem amongst v800's he said not to worry about it.
So i guess it will be allright.
