Hello Everyone, I have a question. My fancy 1000.00 5G phone is burning the crap out of my hand. I have been having a stining sensation on my left hand. It goes away if i leave it on the charger away from my body. But damn if im on the forums the stinging returns. Its the phone and comes back as soon as I pick up this hand held microwave. Can anyone suggest a method to handle this thing or turn down the singing affect? I plan on turning off mobil and switching to wifi when at home. My cellphone provider built new towers and we had to switch to all 5G phones. They told us the 4G phones would no longer work. This is ridiculous.

Whats the device name and service provider? I would guess you can turn off 5g and enable 4g VoLTE.
Also this sounds kinda placebo'y in that if the phone is heavier, larger or much smaller it may cramp your hand holding for periods of time which could trigger a "never happened before" kind of thing.
Tmobile recently turned off their 2g and 3g where my mom lives and they swapped out her flip for a smartphone. We just turned off mobile data and she uses it like a phone with wifi when she needs to. She didn't ask for or need a new phone but the old one was not going to function any longer and there was no cost.
Not downplaying your issues but 5G imo has not yet showed us on a large scale what it's capable of when it comes to negative health effects. I do believe it can be harmful but im still waiting to see exactly what it does and to whom
Yes T Mobile - told me the old note 8 would no longer work.
I use a Note 8 (4G) through Verizon and it still works great. Different towers, so who knows...
Regardless, I would never go 5G -- too many health risks and the towers are only in select cities, as far as I know. I suppose it could also just be a tech issue within the phone itself, but I've read a few articles now that make me suspicious of 5G in general.
What kind of device are you currently using? Most likely you can turn off the 5G radio and probably get a battery boost
S22Ultra. All the bells and whistles.
Try this, and then restart the device:

It’s basically like standing in front of your microwave with the door open.
