This happened about a month ago and after 3 or 4 days it fixed itself. Now it's happening again. Gets very hot and battery is dead in 3 or 4 hours. Unless the charger is a quick charge it won't even keep up with the drain. Here's some screen shots from Settings > Battery

Your battery history details show that you have very bad cell signal (nonexistent half of the time). This is going to drain your battery very quickly. Also, your awake bar is pretty much solid. It means that some processes are running, almost non stop, in the background while your screen is off. It's strange that Pocket is so high on the list, were you syncing a lot of texts?
 
Thanks for the input. How do I tell what processes are running in the background?

I noticed about Pocket too after I took the pix, I uninstalled it and the problem persisted. As for the bad cell signal. This is in my home. I can't really get any cell data - have to use wifi. But have never had a problem with a call in the house. AND I've had this phone for 10 months - same house the problem just happened for about 3 or 4 days a month ago and now again.
