Battery drain/ heat

[Truth Seeker2]

A few weeks ago my phone started draining a lot.

Before it would only heat up when on fast charge, or when running a demanding game. Now it seems to heat up whenever running anything even the browser (uc browser), or not graphic demanding game. It would also stay warm and drain after it is running. Or running audio (smart audio player).

I'm not doing anything differently and i did not have this problem before. I can get it to stop heating up by closing all running apps, but not always. Today used the browser, and closed all apps, but it kept draining. After i cleared out ram from smart manager it stopped. Before i could just let anything keep running in the background with never a problem.

Welcome to Android Central! Charge up to 100%, then let it drain to 20-30% with normal usage, without charging in between. Then show us:


1. The main Settings>Battery screen.
2. The fullscreen battery graph screen (which shows Awake time and Cell Signal Strength).
3. The Screen category (to see total Screen On time).
4. The Cell Standby category, if present (to see Time Without Signal).

You might have to install a 3rd party battery monitor, like GSam Battery Monitor, to get the Cell Signal Strength graph.

I'd be a little suspicious of UC Browser, since I've read some concerns about associated adware. Also, I would also uninstall or turn off any "RAM cleaner" apps, as they can cause more problems than they claim to solve.
