Hi.

I recently bought an Iphone 4s off ebay and was having battery problems from the start. The battery could die between 1 and 50% and there was a serious drain. I recently got a new battery and this sorted that problem. Now all of a sudden my phone (particularly the back towards the right) gets really hot if I simply just scroll down twitter or facebook and I get a temperature warning. I literally have to leave my phone for about half an hour and can only go on it doing small things etc. What kind of phone does this? DOES ANYONE HAVE A FIX PLEASE!?
:(
 
Old phone + Ebay purchase + Seller probably new of issue + No warranty = Screwed.

Try to get a hold of the Seller, and make a complaint or return. If you bought it " As Is" than you are probably out of luck. This is why I never use Ebay. This is my opinion only
 
Sounds like it could be something related to the new battery. Either the battery isn't quite right itself or something happened while installing/connecting it.
