Phone heating after new software update

[AndraOpris]

Hi everyone,

I've installed the last software version for my Xperia 5 IV and I've noticed that my phone is heating more than usual and also the battery is draining faster than usual. Has any of you encountered similar issues?

Thank you,

Andra

Hi,

Yes, it's common to experience heating and battery drain after a software update. Here are some steps you can try to resolve these issues:

1. Restart Your Phone: Sometimes a simple restart can fix post-update issues.
2. Check for App Updates: Ensure all your apps are updated to the latest versions.
3. Clear Cache: Go to Settings > Storage > Cached data and clear the cache.
4. Background Apps: Check and close any apps running in the background.
5. Battery Usage: Go to Settings > Battery > Battery usage to see if any specific app is causing the drain.
6. Safe Mode: Boot your phone in safe mode to see if a third-party app is causing the problem.
7. Factory Reset: As a last resort, back up your data and perform a factory reset.
