1. Factory Reset

The first thing every smartphone owner should do when its phone has problems is a factory reset. A factory reset erases all installed applications and mods and returns the phone to its factory settings. This will fix the overheating problem which could be caused by an app or installed mods.

To make a factory reset on your LG G3 go to Settings > General > Backup & Reset> Factory data reset > Reset phone> Erase. This will automatically erase everything on your LG G3. Another way to reset your phone is to boot into Recovery and select Wipe data.

2. Check processor frequency

You have the opportunity to increase the processor frequency of your phone. This is called overclocking. Overclocking is good because it increases the performance of the LG G3 and games don’t lag at all. But overclocking also causes rise of temperatures which leads to overheating.

If you have overclocked the processor of your LG G3, lower the frequency to prevent overheating.

3. Cases

A big bulky case can cause overheating. Smartphones need air to release all the heat the processor creates but when there is a case all the heat is stuck inside. Find a case which protects the phone and it is slim at the same time.
