The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is a powerhouse of performance and innovation. With its advanced Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, stunning AMOLED display, and cutting-edge camera system, it's built to handle heavy tasks with ease. However, some users have reported overheating problems, especially during prolonged usage or while gaming.

If you’re experiencing high temperatures on your Galaxy S24 Ultra, don’t worry. Here’s a complete guide on how to fix overheating issues and keep your device running cool and smooth.


🔥 Why Is My Galaxy S24 Ultra Overheating?

Before jumping into solutions, it helps to understand what’s causing the heat. Common reasons include:

  • Heavy multitasking or gaming

  • Extended camera usage or 8K video recording

  • Direct sunlight or hot environments

  • Software bugs or background apps

  • Faulty chargers or third-party accessories

Now, let's dive into the fixes.


1. Update Your Software

Samsung regularly releases firmware updates that optimize system performance and fix known bugs, including overheating issues.

To check for updates:

  • Go to SettingsSoftware updateDownload and install.

Keeping your phone up-to-date can significantly reduce unnecessary heat.


2. Limit Background Processes

Too many apps running in the background can stress the CPU and GPU, leading to higher temperatures.

What you can do:

  • Swipe up and clear unused apps from Recent Apps.

  • Go to SettingsBattery and device careMemory → Clean now.

Also, consider disabling apps you don’t use often.


3. Adjust Display Settings

The Galaxy S24 Ultra’s high refresh rate and brightness can contribute to heating, especially in sunny environments.

Try this:

  • Go to SettingsDisplay.

  • Set Motion smoothness to Standard (60Hz).

  • Lower screen brightness or turn on Adaptive brightness.


4. Avoid Charging While Using the Phone

Using your phone while charging (especially gaming or streaming) generates more heat.

Best practice: Let your device charge undisturbed and remove the case if it gets too warm.


5. Use Original Accessories

Non-certified chargers or cables can cause inefficient power delivery and overheating.

Solution: Stick with Samsung’s original charging equipment or use certified third-party accessories.


6. Enable Battery Protection Features

Samsung offers built-in tools to prevent overheating and protect battery health.

  • Go to SettingsBattery and device careBatteryMore battery settings.

  • Enable Protect battery and Adaptive battery.

These features help your phone manage power more efficiently.


7. Use Game Booster Settings

If you're a mobile gamer, Samsung’s Game Booster can optimize performance while managing heat.

To access:

  • Open Game Launcher → Tap your game → Enable Game Booster features.

You can also reduce graphics quality or limit FPS to reduce thermal load.


8. Reset Settings (If Necessary)

If overheating persists and you're unsure why, resetting your phone settings may help.

Go to:

  • SettingsGeneral managementResetReset settings.

⚠️ This won’t delete your data but will reset preferences like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and permissions.

Overheating on the Galaxy S24 Ultra is usually a manageable issue caused by a combination of high performance and demanding use cases. By tweaking your settings, keeping software up-to-date, and being mindful of usage habits, you can significantly reduce heat and prolong your phone’s lifespan.

If problems continue even after trying these solutions, consider contacting Samsung Support or visiting an authorized service center. Sometimes a hardware issue or faulty battery could be the root cause. By TV Malaysia Online

I thought someone new would talk about it. The performance has been reduced even more in the past month, but still the heating is too much.

Samsung can't control the background running apps. I saw many apps I didn't open but still working in the background. Just like the Samsung pass, parental control, Bixby, etc. It has no force to stop or optimize options.
