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.
Understood.

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. |

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. |

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. |
