Hi All,

I Just bought a brand new Nexus 5. I installed a free Flashlight app on my N5 recently. Yesterday, I had my phone in my pocket and for whatever reason, my phone unlocked itself accidentally (I have no password) and the flash light app opened. I had no idea it was on until my pocket started to feel extremely hot. I took it out and immediately turned off the app, but the phone itself was really hot. Did i just destroy my battery or my LED light?

I just bought this phone :(

you should be fine. phones have self-protection built in & shut off if temps get too high. just be careful & don't do it again :)
