Hey Guys, I recently replace by back camera, after putting it all together the iPhone heats up when started. Some facts:

  • hot spot is the top right corner of the back
  • no heating during boot or while in lock screen (even if the display stays on the whole time)
  • heats up during usage in unlocked state
  • when switching to standby it cools down again
  • when charging the phone, it heats up, even when I completely disconnect the display Do you may have an idea what could cause this issue? Thanks in advance!! :)

A faulty camera could probably cause this. Try with another one and see if the issue persists.
