You should see an icon the bottom center of the screen that is a circle with two rows of dots. Touch that icon, and it should open up the Apps screen that lists all the Apps you have installed.

Most likely the cause of the heat issue is a bad, or failing battery. That is the most common cause of heating up. It is possible that the battery got hot enough to destroy itself, or even the internal components of the phone. I would check the battery. If it is bad, replace it. It is also possible, but unlikely if your phone is not showing any physical damage, that the battery ruptured and caught fire (oxidized). This will usually destroy the phone as well, but not 100% of the time. I actually had a battery in an iPhone do that, and I managed to get the phone working again by simply replacing the battery and the display assembly (this was in an iPhone 6s), so I was lucky and had no damage to the logic board or frame.

Most likely, if you have replaced the front camera flex, as well as the speaker itself, it is either misaligned on the contacts (make sure that the contacts on the black speaker piece are aligned on the camera flex cable), misaligned on the logic board (check for misaligned flex cables on the logic board), or a pin has been broken on the logic board (disconnect the flexes for the display and camera, and check for any broken or damaged pins on the board). Other causes are far less likely, but could include: (1) Defective speaker (2) Defective Front Camera Flex (3) Other hardware or software issues

It is almost always the power supply/inverter for the LED strips in this type of issue. LEDs are usually very reliable, lasting far longer than a normal bulb under the same conditions. Unless a short, open, or ESD damaged the circuit boards the LEDs sit on, your problem would be the inverter/power supply.

Check for damaged connectors and cables. If they are not damaged, try cleaning the connectors for the flash and camera using 91% Isopropyl Rubbing Alcohol. It is non-corrosive and non-conductive, and will remove the oils left behind by contact with human skin, making it perfect to clean the contacts with. EDIT FOR WARNING: Unplug battery BEFORE using isopropyl alcohol on the phone inside.

No. The storage of MP3 players use Non-Volatile Flash Storage. Removing the battery should not delete anything. It may reset the clock, but your music files should be safe.

The RAM you are trying to use is incompatible with your model . You are trying to use 800 MHz RAM when that model only supports 667 MHz (PC2-5300). The reason why it works when you use the new ram in combo with old RAM, is that the old RAM is compatible. I am willing to bet if you looked in system specs, the Motherboard would only see your old RAM.
