Means your phones too hot. It can happen if you leave your phone on charge when you on the phone or ou lave the screen on for a long time. If it persists contact apple...

Never has happened to me! If it did I would just stick it in front of a fan :)

but the weird thing is, my phone wasnt charging or the screen wasnt even on. i had my screen on for hours once and never had a problem. i just recieved a regular text today, turned on my phoen to check and bam there was the screen.

i restarted the phone and it went back to normal. i just thought it was weird. have i actually left the screen on or battery cahrging and what not, the message makes sense. but it wasnt, so thought it was weird.

anyways thanks. i hope i never have this problem ever again.

Apple will swap it out for a new one. Especially if it happens for no reason.
