    Hi guys...does using BB Link cause your phone to get extremely hot?
    Started happening to me...I think I might have to go to ATT and try to get a new one.

    EDIT: After my device backs up, I'm going to plug it into the wall charger...going to see if it's all charging that causes it to get hot...could be a defective micro-usb port.

    This is cause by the device charging and obviously because your backing up your phone. Putting stress on any system will start to heat it up.

    I understand the concept and why doing system activities such as sync/backup would cause the device to heat up. It just seemed like it was getting abnormally hot. But Battery Guru only said it was getting to 97 (or rarely 100), depending on what surface i had the phone sitting on.
    Guessing it's not anything to be worried about overall.
