Why does my Moto X get so hot?

I'll try this again. My moto x heats up if I charge it and listen to the TuneIn app. Also if I play games for about 10 minutes. I've disabled hangouts, turn off wifi and bluetooth when not needed. Still this thing heats up big time. I've asked this quesiton yesterday and got emails saying I have replies. However I'm not able to view them. So hopefully I'll be able to see responses this time. I've had my phone since February 5, 2014.

Hello bobmg68, a working phone is top priority! Is the device plugged into the charger while in use? Does it get hot to the touch where it burns your hands? Any physical or water damage? You are on the right track with the steps you have done previously, here are additional steps that may require a reset: http://vz.to/1g8Ij5U Also, you may want to take the phone to a store location for a hands on evaluation.

What charger are you using? If it's anything other than the one that came with the phone, try using the one it came with.

Hi,

I found some good tips that might help at Motorola's website at  https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/48706/~/droid-x---gets-hot-durin...

Maybe that will help.
