The Osmo Pocket becomes very hot when connected to a computer over the usb cable.
Usually, I transfer up to 1 GB  of files to my computer [ windows 7, usb 3] and then I leave it connected.
It doesn't charge, it becomes too hot while the camera is inactive and connected to my computer.
What is happening, hot can I  fix it.

Both charging, and data transfer generate heat. Not sure how hot is "too hot".

As long as your Omo Pocket is showing the green charging light blinking at the rates described in the users manual you should be fine. Do not leave in the charging point for longer than needed and don't charge above the prescribed limit for storage if you don't intend to use the Osmo Pocket within a few days of charging.

It gets pretty hot during 4K60 recording too, but so far it's never been an issue!
