Interesting.

I unplugged it from the PC and it says, "Looking good! Your device is in good shape. No suggestions now!" That's funny, because the only way people can hear me during a phone call (this started with one of the 4.x upgrades) is if I put the phone on speaker. But, that's not an issue with the phone I guess. ;0) Thanks for the input! --Mikem

There are standards for charging a device via it's USB port with way more current than a computer's USB port can provide. My Xperia charges noticeably faster with the wall wart. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB#Power Wade. Just Add Story http://justaddstory.wordpress.com/

Post #396,850 by mmoffitt 12/4/14 8:45:23 AM Reply	Understood. But IME, the slower USB/trickle charge used to result in the battery lasting longer. A full charge at 5pm is now stone dead by 8am the next day with no use of the device at all. That's new for me.
Post #396,851 by pwhysall 12/4/14 9:14:56 AM Reply	Won't make any difference Modern batteries have brains that will not let you over-charge or fully discharge them (they announce they're "empty" at ~20% of actual charge capacity, frexample) because both scenarios are profoundly deleterious to the health of a li-poly battery pack. Review the Android battery use contraption. Something is not right on your phone.
Post #396,856 by Another Scott 12/4/14 10:41:28 AM Reply	Yup, something's wonky. My Nexus 4 was unplugged from the wall charger around 8:30 AM. It now shows 91% with 18 hours left. Google Services 3% VPN Unlimited 1% Android OS 1% Sirius XM 1% Gmail 1% I've got an HSPA signal on T-Mobile, maybe 75% of the bars. WiFi shows a gray indicator with an exclamation point; I'm not connected to WiFi. My screen intensity is at 50%. Pimlical A is the only "card" running. HTH a bit. Cheers, Scott.

Post #396,866 by Another Scott 12/4/14 12:41:13 PM Reply	Dunno. Maybe try the suggestions here - http://www.gottabemobile.com/2014/12/01/nexus-lollipop-problems-fixes/ I'm at 81% battery with 16 hours left now. Google Services has taken 6%, everything else is smaller. HTH. Cheers, Scott.
