Q: My iPhone 4S seems to be over heating any ideas what could be wrong with it.

When troubleshooting temperature, please refer to the following article:

When using the device or charging the battery, it is normal for it to get warm. The exterior of the device functions as a cooling surface that transfers heat from inside the device to the cooler air outside.

By all means, if you believe the temperature is a concern, you can isolate the issue by restoring your iPhone as new:
