My phone now charges and works at the speed of snail.
And it dies and heats up at the speed of light.
As I can see the phone is constantly waking up for some weird reason.
Is there an app that'll show me what app responsible for doing this???

Maybe betterbatterystats? re-install ROM? i like fresh starts =P
If it is that bad, the built in battery stats under settings will probably point the way...
GSam Battery Monitor, formerly BadAss battery monitor is pretty good and of course betterbatterystats available for free in the xda general app forum will help as well, but can be confusing for new users...
Personally I would do a nandroid backup and then flash a stock rom and see if the issue persists to see if it's a hardware / software issue and then go from there...
First of all, I would change the thread title to something like "Battery draining quickly and overheating badly" or something like that. I find the title a bit misleading.
Anyways, have you checked which app is draining the battery? (Either better battery stat or just built-in battery monitor)
If you see an app that drains tons of battery, just uninstall it.
If it isn't, we have to know what you have done recently that might have caused this. From your given information, we just have to assume the problem, which is much less accurate than actually knowing what it is.
I've found 2 things.
1.Power toggles
2. PGM Nexus
I deactivated them and charged it. Took 1 and 30 min.
Finally.

For those of you who owned a nexus s you may remember that the YouTube app would continue playing with screen off. It was great for music what ever happened to it, And why is the feature not implemented into the newer YouTube app?

Probably Apple's fault since the iPhone also does it.

Meh. The delay of the screen turning on with it having to do the animation made it worthless on GB. Off ani is fine.

Get a free ogg editor and increase the volume of the audio files for those sounds.

I'm noticing that Google is killing it's mascot for android.
He still represents the OS(barely) but like he is not on the Phone.
Google tore him out of Dialer, the Market, the contact list(when no pic was set) the tutorial when I first unlock the device, HE'S NOT EVEN IN TBE EASTER EGG WHEN U CLICK VERSION.
The Next thing that could happen is that android devices will be known as.... Play Devices.
Why is Google killing him off visually on the OS??? He only exist in the 3 following.
1. Welcome Screen
2. When In the Fastboot recovery
3. When an app can be found.
4. Bottom of the play store.
Why is Google killing him off?? I remember he was EVERYWHERE on the N1.

He is in the play store holding shopping bags if you scroll all the way down
EDIT: this is only on screens with the tile layout and when there is an odd number of tiles

No not really. Play represents Google's cloud system. Android is its own separate identity and I cannot see google ever ditching the name android and changing that to play.
On their online playstore portal, it directly says "android apps" and shows the android icon and not just "apps" like it does for books, music, and movies. This shows clear intention to keep the traditional android title distinct from the play title.

And it doesn't answer why Google is tearing him out of the OS in every version of android. He being taken out of places where he used to be that has nothing to do with the Cloud.
It looks like Google is gradually doing it.

did you read my earlier response dragonarse?
they are trying to mature the os since ics, party of that is getting rid of the cartoony elements
Maybe he'll make a comeback in Android 5.0
I also read Dragonarse. Im not making fun of you, but you have to admit that it is funny and ironic that the intended cool name is easily interpreted so very differently
Anyway, the Google statue for Jelly Bean us the Andriod mascot, so I dont think you have to worry about Google phasing him out.
There are some places where I see the Android mascot where I do not want him, such as my home screen icon for ebay.

I think they're only keeping the little guy as a mascot for the OS(i.e. the statues for each OS version), but when it comes to being included IN the OS, Google is probably trying to keep his presence minimal.

You have a point, I can see it happening, and I hope not. I love the mascot, its one of my favorites. I hope they don't do anything lame and generic.
I disagree with the concept of this thread, that Google is killing off the bugdroid. He shows up everywhere if you just look. The JB logo has the bugdroid antennae. The apps icon in settings has him in there. Any app that doesn't have a custom icon for the app tray uses him. He is still the icon placeholder on the Play store as the regular icon loads. The USB debug icon in ICS has his head. I'm sure there are plenty more.
As others have said, they are just polishing things. They love the bugdroid as much as we do.

In jellybean, he's not the debug icon, it's something completely different, in settings, he's not there at all, in the play store he's hidden from view almost entirely. He's gradually getting extracted version after version. And I understand they are polishing it, but they are removing him in places where he shouldn't be removed.

You should buy an app called Better Battery Stats from Play Store. It will monitor your battery life so that if you do encounter problems with drain, you can identify which app or process causes it.
I say just use your phone normally at first. I haven't had any lagging with this phone. Then if you do have problems, post on XDA about it. Of course minimizing sync settings is always a good idea. Apps that constantly monitor for updates do cause battery drain and use the cpu. I mean things like facebook, google+ and so on. If you have those set to push updates and alerts to your phone live as they happen, you might experience battery drain and maybe lagging too.

My HTC Desire HD is draining battery over night and being very hot in the morning while battery only remaining under 5% even if it was on 100% at night!
It remains like 10% ~ 15% while i put on the airplane mode.
I have installed Jelly Time by RandomBlame R30
juice defender, advanced task killer, and some more apps to avoid battery draining!
UPDATE: I have downgraded my phone to ICS Sabsa Prime
removed advanced task killer because a fellow member suggested me to... still facing the problem!
Screen shots are added in this thread so that you guys can have a better idea of my problem.
UPDATE: I have added some more screen shots of better battery status as suggested.
Please help me out here... any help in this regard will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Mortal Eternity!
Install Better Battery Stats and check wakelocks and alarms.
Well i just installed sabsa prime version 11.0... battery draining problem in day time is gone... thanks to alireza babae but after installing this rom my set is booting randomly...
Please help!
Can we have a list of the apps you are using to save battery?
And uninstall Advanced Task Manager. Task managers do more bad than good.
Sent from my Nexus 4, powered by CyanogenMod via XDA Developers app.
uninstall advance task manager and download Battery Calibration from Play Store. Follow the instructions in that app and it may solve your problem

More specifically, screenshots of kernel wake locks, partial wake locks (already there), and alarms. Select them from the top drop down box.
To use BBS: use it to diagnose what is keeping your phone from battery saving "deep sleep" mode. For example: you see Starting Alert Services in your partial wake locks? It's locking your phone awake more than it should. So what's going on with the app that uses it, which appears to be Contacts? Do you have apps installed or something running that uses it disproportionately?

Sir, i will upload more screen shots here that you asked for... thanks for all your help, can you/any one please suggest best rom to same battery?
I personally feel that choosing a ROM for battery life is not the most efficient method. There are many things that affect battery drain to a significant degree: backlight, GPS, WiFi, alarms, wakelocks, etc. I have not found that ROM choice affects battery drain nearly as much as other things (unless, of course, you're using a highly experimental or brand new ROM).
