The main heaters in your phone:
- 3G transmitter
- GPU
- WiFI transmitter
- Battery
Try playing bounce, torrenting over your 3G, running a local hotspot with joikuspot and charging the N900 at the same time...

Ive got 3G connection, joikuspot and charging going all the same time and have noticed my n900 getting quite hot when running for a long period of time. Approximately, after 3 hours running as above, its nearly hot enough to be uncomfortable to pick up, id guess about 50 cel or so. The phone has also switched itself off once or twice when running it this configuration, and seems to take a few minutes before I can switch it back on. I can't swear to this being due to the heat, and im not planning on exhaustively (destructively?!) testing, but it seemed to be related!
As previous posts have mentioned, this is expected, however i guess that doesn't mean its a good thing! Am concerned this could do some damage, particularly if n900 doesn't have the same mechanisms to deal with this kind of heat as you would expect to find in a regular computer.
Does anyone have any experience of this behaviour or can comment on the likelihood of some damage being caused by overheating in general?
Cheers,
Adrian

since ive had my new n900 ive noticed its been heating up alot which is weird. I got a new n900 when my previous usb port came out, I usually put my phone under my pillow and when I got it in morning it was really really hot, even while im typing this from the n900 its still really hot. My old N900 never heated up any help?
Ny one know abt this????
it usually happens by using many apps together and chargin at the same time. .. Wit the wall or usb charger. . .
Is this a software or hardware issue?
