Battery drain after screen repair - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

About a week ago my phone had to get its screen replaced and since then the battery drain has been severe.
I can actually watch its % go down - %50+/- in 1/2 an hour!?
I've tried with my spare battery and I see the same issue.
I'm going to the repair store soon to speak to them about this.
Has anyone heard of this happening - with any phone after screen repair?
I think it might not be an official screen they put in.

The above image was taken from %100 - screen off while at work.
There's a drop where the phone bugged out and had to reboot.
No battery hog services in the background that I can see

[Q] Weird Gray Battery Icon

My brother sent me this pic, anyone ever seen this before? I couldn't find anything in the search...

It means that the battery isnt communicating with the phone so it thinks there isnt a battery installed even though it is still sending the phone power. Tell him if he has TEP on the phone he can just go to his nearest sprint store and they SHOULD give him a new battery.
PS: this is the first time i have ever heard of it happening on an evo. But I have seen it on other HTC Sense devices (the battery status icons are different on Sense devices than that of regular stock Android.)
Thanks for the response!

A Hoard of Faults

So, up until today my One X has been free (apparently) from any faults or glitches.
However today, the screen looked like a giant bar code (until I touched the screen again) - after displaying the same image of text for about five minutes. The screen also occasionally had a slim 'wavy' like line at the side of the screen - is this that 'screen flickering' issue? Then I went on to battery stats and I have the weird line where it hasn't reset after charging and instead appears to have magically recharged since last being plugged in (when actually, I had the phone charging while turned off).
Has there been any fixes for these, or is it a hardware issue?

[Q] Phone will randomly turn off and have low battery when I reboot

I'm on my 2nd S3 as my first one died of a board failure a couple of weeks back so I had to trade it for a refurb. This one I've got has given me some problems. The biggest one is the phone will randomly turn off without warning and won't turn on again without a battery pull. Sometimes but not always, the battery will just drop to nearly dead. The phone is currently running CM11 but I don't believe that's the problem because my other one had CM11 also and it gave me no problems. Does anybody have any ideas why this is happening?
EDIT: I switched batteries thinking it was the battery first but it still does it with a new battery

Awful battery life...From 50% to 10% in less than an hour

I recently had a situation where I had my phone drop from 50% to 10% in less than an hours.
After that I installed GSAM.
Here are some of the pictures and stats for my Verizon LG G3.
I had my phone sit by me today for barely any use and it's at about 30% (10pm, taken off charger at noon)

On standby today
the only abnormal use would be the phone in this picture, had a long conversation.
Any and all insight would be great, I would really like to solve this. NO my phone is NOT rooted and I am not interested in doing so.
The only thing I can think of is there is a heat issue as I have a spot on my screen that shows up UNDER the glass that looks like a dull burn, and once the phone got so hot in my pocket, I had to take it out.

Phone ALWAYS Awake - plz help - Battery Problems

Obviously I don't know what's going on here. I've disabled all the system and att apps i do not use. I have Google now off I have Google location off I have turned off the wifi always on. Pretty much anything you can think of to optimize battery on this device. I went to bed with 51% and woke up to 35%. Im so tired this phones battery performance. I can literally watch it drop when I'm on it. And when it's not even in use.

Someone please help me before I throw this POS into the cement in my driveway.
Theres not enough information to help you, post the battery screen that lists your apps, mostly likely it's android system running nonstop, try pulling out the battery
