Hello all!
I have a weird issue that has come and gone but is back again and instead of me just doing a factory reset (which fixes the issue) I would like to see what you guys think here.
I have a rooted Nexus 5 (Originally was on kitkat) while on kitkat after downloading some apps and games I noticed my battery was taking a lot longer to charge until it started actually draining while charged. I tried to end all the tasks using the settings and also 2 third party apps, battery doctor and AVG Pro and noticed the apps that were supposed to be closed were still running no matter what I did trying to close them. Still not working I was Freaking out so I factory reset and all was fixed. After installing my apps and stuff again everything was running okay (battery charging not perfect and still taking some time) but it was charging so I was happy.
On came lollipop! I updated and am loving it! Was running without any games and the battery was charging perfectly. I installed my apps again and games and it started charging weird again. Normally when I charge my phone over-night I wake up to 100%, this morning I woke up to 93%. Not thinking much of it went through my day and started charging it tonight and noticed the battery life was going down again. I was looking around and found out that it was probably an app in the background so I tried to close all my apps from settings again and same thing apps say they are closed I refresh and they are back running. I tried AVG pro's task manager and even battery doctors and again nothing is actually closing when I say close.
I also read that this issue could be the charger itself so I went from my original charger and brick that plugs into the wall to an extra one I have lying around and same thing. I then read that usb 3.0 gives off more voltage then 2.0 or the original brick that comes with the phone. I am now charging via usb 3.0 and it is actually charging again.
To make things clear, I am on a rooted Nexus 5, all my management apps have permission to mess with settings. Once charged my battery life is great (I easily get a full day of use out of my phone). My battery is not charging on my regular wall charger that came with the phone not with usb 2.0 ports... but usb 3.0 charges my phone no problem.
I am wondering what you guys recommend, what you guys use to kill tasks, why you think when I kill my tasks nothing is actually happening and if you guys have any advice I am all ears.
Also note a factory reset will fix this issue.
I appreciate you going through my long post.
