Few days ago, while was ond dock, my phone temperature went over 50 deg. Celsius. Everything was off except WiFi hotspot. I noticed earlier that dock+wifi hotspot raises temperature up to 38-40 Celsius and last days I didn't mix these two together.
Overheating continues 2 days after that. I reflash my rom (found that on some android forums) and everything was fine 'till last night when phone again went up to 48-50 Celsius while it was DEEP SLEEP state(checked that with CPU Spy). No WiFi, no WiFi hotspot, it wasn't charging. Only mobile data on, but i have stable signal here, so this shouldn't affect on battery (no batery drain was discovered ever while i'm on this rom).
I'm average user, about 5 hrs screen time. Phone(and battery) are about 9-10 months old, and i'm running on TeamCanjica's Cyanogenmod 10.2 (20140227 version, almost bugfree, except some memory leaks).
Anybody knows what went wrong?

Ever checked if one of your installed apps was the culprit?

No. I can only say that there wasn't any baterry drains and battery usage was usual. No usage by any app. Only display, system, cell standby, phone idle etc...

When it does overheat, does it take a few minutes or longer? Does it happen during the night only or does it happen also during the day?
You may be able to take a logcat if it does happen during the day, then ask Rox for help..

First time, it happened when i was sleeping. Maybe it lasted hour or less. Phone was beside my hand, so it waked me up when i touched it with mu hand . I turned phone off, removed battery and went back to bed(was workihn all day long and was wery tired).
It happens randomly. I was awake last night, but forget to take logcat. Thank you for reminding, i'll do that if phone overheats again.
Think you have to reset your phone. after reset you phonr not ok? Then hardware fauly
Wifi Hotspot does takes quite a lot in battery consumption, so increase in temperature is to be expected.

Hi
Had a problem with my Desire over the last few days. From full charge the phone is dead in about 15 hours, most of the discharge seems to happen in the last 6-7 hours i.e charge was full before I went to sleep last night and this morning it has 5% left.
Now I haven't recently installed any new apps, phone hasn't really been used and is on standby most of the time, I don't have any e-mail or other sync's going on. Only thing running all the time is Bluetooth, but up till a few days ago phone was holding charge for 2-3 days. Now as said it dies overnight.
Any thoughts?

Try to recalibrate your battery cache.
or
Check what has/have consumed or caused the drain (apps, syncs, OC, weak signals, settings, etc.).
Try other ROM and/or other kernel.
or
your battery or your Desire has just given up its live.
Thread for calibrating the battery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7696283#post7696283
Which ROM do you use?
It could also be a hardware malfunction. I had the same problem with huge rises of battery temperature. I took my phone for warranty repair. They changed the motherboard. Now it works flawlessly.
I am using Redux 1.2 and can get two days of moderate use.
Other thing that could cause it is Rom. With Stock ROM the battery usually drains faster. Also check how many Widgets you're running and if you have any GPS or Bluetooth on.
Check if you have 'best wifi performance' ticked in Settings>wireless & networks>wifi settings>menu>advanced
I have noticed it rapidly drains the battery.
i think mines heading that way also
my battery has only been lasting me about 17 hours since i first bought it then again i do use it alot music, games, surfing on wi-fi and so on. but i still try to conserve it. leedroid chrgermod works well for me but i thought 2 days was godly battery life but apparently it isn't
hello guys,
i flashed the radio to 12.62.60.27p_26.13.04.19_M after which i flashed update-LC-ICS-1.0.beta4-DesireHD-signed.zip by wiping completely. During standby, the drain was very less (about 1 mA , occasionally reaching 5 mA.) After 24 hours, the drain increased beyond 10 mA, sometimes even reaching 40mA or more in standby mode. It was only after i rebooted the device, the drain is somewhat acceptable now.
Is this normal or something is wrong? what could be the reason?
in the above cases, the phone was in standby mode, no calls, no data, only 2G. the only difference in the second case was additional applications like facebook, etc but no data, no sync.
btw, i just rebooted my phone and lost battery level from 3.735 to 3.691 , drop of 14% as shown in current widget.
any suggestions ?
I'm running cm7 and for me that's quite normal.
The drain per 5 minutes is between 1mA and 10mA while in 2G standby, screen off, data off.
The drain of course jumps up to 40mA to 200mA if the screen is on and i'm using the phone (wifi on, using google reader etc)
Getting 1mA per 5 minutes all the time sounds a bit unrealistic to me. Maybe in airplane mode and no screen on time.
I guess your problem could be the additional apps. Maybe an app is running wild?
And might i ask what you mean by "battery level"? Are you talking about the mV?
First of all, make sure you're are really wiping everything. Just to be sure, you may follow this steps:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1226016
You can also take a look in your battery stats, the battery usage of mediaserver. In come ICS based ROMs, it drained battery a lot.
I tested LCs 1.0.v4 and also got poor battery performance, may be inherent to this ROM.

hi, standby => night time when no screen is on...
it was about 1 mA most of the times and occasionally reaching 5mA

hi, yes, i have been following the link for wiping since the time i sarted flashing ROMS..
but what you are saying could be right.. the ROM itself could have battery issues...
I'm running LC ICS v1.2. I haven't seen any significant battery drain though I'm using an Inspire 4G. There's also an undervolting app on the second post in his thread. Undervolting has improved the battery performance slightly as well for me...
Hey all,
I must have something going badly wrong..... I fully charged the phone over night, When I left my house this morning I unplugged the charger, booted the phone in recovery and wiped the battery stats, and the booted it as normal.
I have hardly used the phone all day. Wifi has been off almost the whole time. I have made a couple calls, total no more than a couple minutes. Sent and received 3 texts each way. Spent about 5-6 minutes browsing the internet using mobile network. Had it connected to Bluetooth on the car for about 90minutes. 12 hours later and I have this since it was last charged:
I tried to post screenshot but my post count is too low :-(
Anyways, this is what it said:
15 percent battery left
11 hrs 39min 43 seconds on battery
Screen 57%
Android OS 22%
Phone idle 6%
Voice calls 4%
Cell standby 4%
Browser 3%
Android system 3%
Media server 2%
I was expecting better, but maybe I am expecting too much... I am running Liquid Rom 1.2 along with the latest Popcorn Kernel. The kernel is set at max-1420 min 350 using the aggressive governor. I have tried to set the ROM so it will Fastcharge, but it won't work. It says it is OFF: USB is in normal MTS mode..... how do I fix that?
I like to be able to use my phone a lot. Today I used my phone a lot less than I do usually. Normally I do a lot of browsing. I almost always have a power source close by, but I had to wait a couple hours at the doctors the other day and I ended up almost running the phone flat just from browsing the net! So after that I decided I needed to really do some looking into what setup will work the best for battery life, but also run nice and fast and smooth when I don't have to worry about battery life.
Any thoughts on what I should do would be appreciated. If I need to supply more info for you to help me, please let me know.
Thanks

Install CPU spy and Better Battery Stats. With CPU Spy you can see in what state your CPU is and if your phone goes to Deep Sleep.
With Better Battery Stats you can see what is keeping your phone awake.
That is the best suggestion. Als: Your screen is taking up 57 % (now that on it's own isn't that strange) but if you click that: How much time was it actualy on? And what brightness do you use?
My S3 is normally have really great battery life with disabling unnecessary features and turning off unnecessary functionality. With normal use and with wifi one it has battery life more than a 36 hrs. But at work because of poor signals I hardly gets 20 hrs. and I can understand that problem with poor signals.
But, Ones and while battery dies in 3- 4 hrs. I fully charged my cellphone at night and took the charger off mid night Battery at 40% in 4 hours. without use , where no application or wifi, data plan running. and many time it just die if I don't get up in midnight. This happen so randomly no proper time duration. some time no issue for month or week. Some times I seen this behavior in day time, phone got really hot... I just restart phone and it will fix the issue.
I didn't root my phone running on Jelly beans. Should I contact Samsung or bestbuy from where I purchase.

This is a daily problem for me ever since I bought my device so I got used to it. Rooting the device with a stripped down ROM fixed my battery life issue. But I reverted to stock in anticipation of the 4.1.2 update for the i747.
Reading through some battery threads I was told that the "proper" way to check your overnight drain was to charge up to 100% and not touch it until the next morning. I tried this last night and WiFi drain was in the 30% range (I used my phone before taking the screenshot which is why it's at 22%) with a total drop of 7% (100-93% over 8 hours).
Does this seem high?
I've got WiFi, NFC, battery saver location, mobile data, and double tap to wake on. The phone is rooted and I'm using a custom kernel (but I'm pretty sure it happened with the stock kernel too). I also have an Android Wear watch attached all night. On AOSP ROMs on my OP3T overnight drain was around 2% if I started at 100% and WiFi was never more than maybe 6% of total drain. Again, I'm not asking how to fix this, I'm just wondering if this is something that others are experiencing.
Thanks!
Mine dropped 2% over four hours of sleep. I'll try with battery saver on.
Mine averages about 3% in 8hrs with wifi on, I'll post a screenshot tomorrow, on freedomos using simplegx kernel
My WiFi drain is very low during idle. Like most flagships of this era.
mine is as same as op, but last night i charged it upto 74 and slept and when i got up after 6 hrs or so it dropped 2 %, strange ... maybe it's the way the phone is charged and calibrated for dash charging
I'm loosing 4-5% in 8 hours.

Thanks for these screenshots. Obviously I don't have nearly the SOT that you do in my screenshot, but it looks like if our SOTs were the same you'd probably have similar WiFi percent usage.
Mine's been surprisingly bad - at least, worse than my Moto G5S, Galaxy S8+ or iPhone 8 Plus were. I'm losing like 5-7% every four hours, my battery drain while connected to wifi at work is way worse than either of the other phones mentioned too.
All in all it's kind of disappointing considering how good the OP5T is in literally every other regard.

We may have similar WiFi usage. But my drain is about .5% per hour, overnight. I don't consider that high, and battery consumption has to be attributed to something. Here is my current usage since yesterday's charge.
On 8.0 the WiFi drain % is even lower, but idle drain per hour is the same. So it doesn't really matter.
Very bad.. Battery go. Down quickly in night..
My wifi drain is also really bad on the latest 4.7.4
Hope they release a fix soon...
Edit... I did a fresh install with stock 4.7.4 and it isn't as bad but still is present. At least it's more tolerable.
Sent from my ONEPLUS A5010 using Tapatalk
So I did another test last night (4.7.4 and SimpleGX kernel) and had 3% drain. With all the comments here I think the high percentage of WiFi is normal and probably not affecting battery life a lot. I am starting to think the kernel may be providing better results than stock 4.7.4 though since a lot of people are mentioning poor battery on 4.7.4.
I don't even know how long, all I can say is my battery drains 3% every 9 and a half hours. Both bluetooth and wifi was on. This is on the stock rom and kernal, not sure how you guys have such high battery drain... Are you guys sure it isn't another app hijacking your battery? Because from my experience the battery stats isn't always perfect. Sometimes I was told that it was my screen (on my old phone) in which it was actually a 3rd party app. After removing the app, my battery drain went a lot slower than usual.
Has anyone tried this toggle in Developer options?

Just tried that setting last night and it doesn't make much difference.
For all wondering I have an Android Wear device connected 24/7 and location set to battery saving. I also keep NFC and data on all night. I'm not using screen-off gestures though.
I wish it was only 7% or something like that on my OP5T.
I used to be one of you 3%-battery-"drain"-at-night-guys, until the official update to Oreo. Now it uses 36% in 6h38m, of which WiFi is reported being 29% (1044mah, despite 0m active and background usage reported). There is 2.8MB additional use according to the WiFi data usage report that was set to count from today, yet the numbers per app have decreased, so there goes reliability on that. I haven't added or removed any apps, only wiped cache after the update. On standby, it only takes 18 hours for it to drain, which used to be several days.
Another weird thing is that WiFi is terribly slow since the same update, but only on this device. (No numbers yet)
Right now my plan is to test all the mentioned related settings, as well as WiFi off, make screenshots after each nightly test, and finally do a complete wipe and perform the same tests with a minimum of apps, and then redo them again with my usual set of apps. It could still be one or more apps that misbehave on Oreo specifically I suppose, so if there's any indication for that, I will start eliminating apps one by one until I find the culprit.
