Your OPPO smartphone includes a tool called Diagnostics within the Phone Manager app. Think of it as a health check center for your phone. Whenever your device acts up—like the touchscreen not responding or other unexpected issues, you can run Diagnostics to inspect various parts of the system and get a report of what might be wrong. What Diagnostics Can Do It checks components of your phone (e.g. touchscreen, sensors, battery). It shows you which parts are working well and which might have problems. You can run selected checks or full checks depending on what issue you’re facing. You get a report at the end, and you can act on the suggestions. How to Run Diagnostics Open the [Phone Manager] app on your OPPO device. Tap the three-dot icon (or “:” / “⠇”) in the top right corner. Select [Diagnostics]. Choose which items you want to test (e.g. touch screen, sensors, battery). Tap [Run diagnostics]. Follow the on-screen instructions. You can skip some tests if you want. After the tests complete, a detection result report appears. Use the results to fix or adjust settings based on what the report shows. How to View Past Diagnostics Reports Inside Diagnostics, tap the same three-dot icon (or “:” / “⠇”). Select [Records] to see earlier test results. This helps you track how your phone’s components have changed over time. Why Use Diagnostics Catch small issues before they become big ones. Know exactly which component is failing.

If sensors like proximity or accelerometer aren’t working. When battery life drops suddenly. Before you bring your phone for service, to collect data. What Diagnostics Can’t Do It won’t fix hardware failures by itself. It may not detect every kind of software bug.

In OPPO phones, factors such as extended usage, direct sunlight, or high ambient temperatures may contribute to increased heat. Identifying the causes and applying proper usage practices can help manage temperature levels and prevent long-term damage. This guide explains the common reasons behind smartphone overheating and offers practical steps to keep your OPPO device operating within safe temperature limits. Reasons your OPPO phone is heating up The following might be the reason why your OPPO smartphone is getting hot: Overusing the phone. The phone display brightness is set too high.

Step 5: Don't use the phone while downloading If big files are being downloaded, pause the download until the phone cools down.

Please be reassured that the phone will return to normal after some time. Step 8: Reset to factory settings If the issue persists, back up and transfer your data, then perform a factory data reset: Back up and transfer the data on your phone first, then go to [Settings] > [Additional settings] > [Back up and reset] > [Factory data reset], then your phone will go back to its initial state and settings.
