Heat issue on Z2 (whige playing)

Hi , I've many heat issue with my Z2 , while playing , or doing simple task on it , I did check the heat some app 

and so far the heat went to 65 ° the area that is very hot is near to camera , what I should do? is that issue can cause some sort of screen break or others?

There's nothing wrong with your phone, it will get hot while you use it, if you play games it will get hotter, there's nothing you can do about it, as this will happen even if you have other brands or OS.

I've noticed that you have flashed your phone before

have you unlocked the bootloader? flashed a custom ROM? overclocked the phone?

None you said , the phone is not rooted , custom rom or any overclock

It's actually bother me since It's actually get ways to hot to keep in hand , and also I've tested the same games on others device of my friends they don't have any issue...

anyway 65 ° for a phone is'nt that way to much ? even my computer a good beast that I brought 4 year ago still keep running at 35-40° this is why , I do not understand at all the heat issue with my Z2...

Your computer has a cooling system, don't compare it with a smartphone, as for other phones not getting that hot, could be due to the material, that they might not seem as hot. 

one things that you could do is to repair your phone with PCC > stay away from intrusive apps such as taskillers, antivirus, ram boosters, etc. do you have any of such apps?

I don't have taskkiller or ram utilities , I have the antivirus that was already installed on (the avg one) but uninstall it (I still have clean master you think this might be the issue?)

Repair the phone with PCC and then try again, do NOT install any of those apps

taskillers

clean masters

antivirus

ram, battery, cpu boosters 

etc

Hello everyone. Me too had the same issue with heating up. I don't think it's normal cause other phones don't have the same heating issue.

For example I had xperia SP which became hot when playing games only, not all the time like Z2.

I think there must be some kind of solution for this, an update.

Thanks.

One thing to say : uliwooly have said <  do NOT install any of those apps

taskillers

clean masters

antivirus

ram, battery, cpu boosters 

I've this question: Is it safe to run my phone without Antivirus, especially while surfing the net or installing new APPS?

Thanks in advance.
