I have an S5, just purchased, for Straight Talk. When I first got it, I loved the battery life, which was the purpose I got this particular phone.
It was great. I could go 2+ days without plugging it in. I took a long day trip to NYC using City Mapper, Waze, google maps and internet. At the end of the day, I still had 30%+ of battery life.
About 6 weeks after purchase, it just started burning the battery like crazy. It cannot even go a full day on idle, and is always warm. Below are a couple pics of what is using the power. One after an hour idle, the other 5 hours idle. I have done a factory reset, installed battery doctor, and shut off all unnecessary apps. No change.
The only other change is it started pausing when I hit power button to light screen, at the same time the battery life became so poor. For example, I want to make a call and I hit the face or power button, it might be a 5 count until the screen illuminates. It is as if the processor is busy.
Any ideas or help is appreciated.
