From available options (Power off, screenshots, etc) click on the “Restart” Or “Reboot” option & that’s it.
What if your device still overheats even after performing a restart? We hope this situation will never arrive but if unfortunately, it happens then you can follow our below mentioned remaining solutions:
Deactivate select features
Yes, always deactivate select features like GPS, Bluetooth, mobile data & Wi-Fi when you’re not using them. If such features are continuously in an enabled mode then there is no doubt that your phone will need extra power to maintain them. In such situations, your device may overheat until you deactivate those features.
Close background Apps
If you’re someone who always keeps several battery-consuming apps running in the background & never closes any of them then this is definitely not a good habit for your phone’s health. Just use them when you need them. If you find some apps which you’re no longer using for months then it would be better to uninstall them.
Check for System update
We suggest you keep your Samsung Galaxy A03 always up-to-date with the latest software update. To check for system update, Open Settings > System update (aka Software Update) > Check for the software update.
If a new update is available then you can download it over a mobile data/Wi-Fi connection (depending on its total size). After installing such a software update it could fix some existing bugs Or any other issues which are causing overheating issues.
If unfortunately your problem is still not resolved then our suggestion is to visit the nearest Authorized Service Center. Maybe you have a faulty unit with some hardware/software issues but no need to worry if your phone is in the warranty period.
