Galaxy S6 (and other S series devices) overheating issues / problems

If you Galaxy S device has overheating problems then you might wanna take a look at this.
There are a few reasons why this could be happening.
If none of these reasons are your problem, then I suggest you go to the nearest Samsung store and / or to you carrier's store and ask them for help.
If your fast charging is on, your device may overheat, but only during charging, so don't worry about that :p (it even says in Settings).

1. Battery has been through stuff

Your battery may be failing or has not been treated well. This often happens when your device has been exposed to direct sunlight at the high temperatures (I say over 30 C). The other reason could be that your device has been in a very cold place (Idk if you put you phone in a refrigerator LOL), but that's very unlikely to happen.

2. Water, water, water

Some Galaxy S devices are waterproof / water resistant, but some aren't. You see, I have a Galaxy S6 and it fell in dirty water. I had to change my battery. If this happens to you there's a 50% chance nothing will happen, but there's always that other 50% that may occur every time, every day.

3. Software problems

There may be a software problem, but that's very unlikely to happen. Although I have something to say about that. So, my friend has (still!) a Galaxy S3. He had some kind of a kernel fail, so we had to reflash his kernel.

4. Left on for too long

I know this usually happens with iPhones, but can also happen with an Android phone. If you leave you phone powered on for too long (and I suppose charging it), there may happen a software failure that keeps overheating the device.

5. Xposed

This is happening to me when I have any, but seriously any Xposed module enabled. I noticed also if you have to much, a similar thing happens. I would buy another phone if I'd use Xposed.
