So I've been trying out different ROMs lately. Ive tested CM11, CM12, Omnirom, Stock Walk and now I'm on deodexed zv5. Also, i think i might be missing one from the list. But thats besides the point. Now my battery charging is severely reduced. If i am using the phone, it wont gain more than 1% battery charge each hour, at the most. More often it keeps losing charge, just at a slower rate, if i have too many things running at once while plugged in. Now that i am on zv5 i can turn the phone off to charge it but its still very slow. Did i somehow manage to ruin something in my phone through all the flashing and wiping ive done recently?

Also, not so much an issue as an observation, but while running omnirom i was able to play FFIV, pause to do something else like texting or a quick google search, and then go back to FFIV and it will simply be paused and waiting for me to jump back in. While running zv5 if i go to something else in the middle of the game, its as if i just closed the app. It starts back at the title screen. Why is this??
