That sucks...I've notice that my phone gets hot when I charge it in the case/skin that I have for it or even when I am doing a lot on it and its in the skin so for the last couple of days I have been using and charging it without the case, has not got as hot at all and I've had mine since December...if you have it in a case try charging and using without it

I have also noticed my phone gets hot when I keep it in a pocket. That would seem to indicate it needs a great deal of air cooling which could be made worse if you have a case around it. If it does continue over heating though that might indicate a more serious issue as that sound like a problem some people had that had faulty Warp phones.

The phone shouldn't heat up when it's not in use, unless something is running that is consuming a lot of CPU. I would suggest taking it back for a warranty replacement, especially since it won't charge.

first try putting it in airplane mode, that should turn off all data/cell etc. turn off gps.

if that doesn't solve it, then I would try a factory data reset, which would point to an app as the issue, you didn't say if you had done anything like root/cwm/etc, but I am assuming you have only installed apps and are still using a stock phone since this isn't in the root section.

lastly if the above two don't fix it, you probably have a hardware issue and should send your phone back in for a warranty replacement.
