Battery drain and temperature help

Hi all,
I am on stock Froyo with Bloatware freezing all of Tmobile apps.
I understand that there are a few threads about this topic, and I have gone over those. I am trying to understand about my particular battery drainage, and high temperatures.
I have been running battery monitor for a few days collecting data and monitoring the patterns and for some reason the battery drains a lot when listening to online radio over the 4g or doing minor things.
Most of the days I am listening to the radio coming in to work and leaving work. Thats about it.
I am attaching the following images.

Also, the temperature gets to about 40 C pretty regularly when listening to the radio.
Here is a snapshot of that.

Exchange your battery.
G2x with faux AOSP

Call LG or Tmobile? I am in Canada, so not sure if Tmobile will like me.

LG would be my guess.

The battery drivers on the stock G2x device/kernel are a total fail, this is a known issue since Day 2. There are rumors of stuff in the works either on the T-T&T and LG end or with the chefs here.
Until then just do what it takes to conserve. There are many threads already deep in discussion and analysis regarding this so you should probably do a search or you can jump over to one of the latest: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1045616
...start at the 'last' page and work backwards looking for posts by "me" and the folks I was conversing with, should be helpful.

[?]NS4G wont charge above 95%

Anyone else had this issue? I've trued different roms and kernels with the same results. Only had it a week so I know the battery is good.

It's normal. No Nexus S (4G or otherwise) charges past 95%. Samsung designed the battery that way on purpose.
Try search next time as this has been asked and answered before.

This theory seems similar to the way Panasonic Toughbooks' battery saver works. Basically, when you turn on ECO mode (or battery saver) on a Toughbook, it says it will only charge the battery to 80% max. Yes, you lose 20% of your charge, but your battery is said to last ~3 yrs instead of ~1 yr with heavy use (as Toughbooks are designed for).
Kinda annoying, but makes sense.

just so you know, its possible to charge to 100%. you just need to finish charging with the screen on. if it stops charging before you turn on the screen, unplug it then plug it in. honestly, im not looking 3 years down the road. im looking to get the most out of my battery now.

Random battery drain. Please look at pictures

I have been running CleanRom 3.0 for about 7 months now and have been getting great battery life. For the last week or so I have been getting horrible battery life and i cannot figure out why. I have not done anything different or added any apps since the fall. I have done all the tips and tricks to saving battery ....display set at 10%/30 seconds, All notifications turned off, gps off, bluetooth off etc... I can usually get an average of 22 hours before needing to look for a charger.
Today:
10.5 hours and 12% left. Not even 2 hours of screen time. I have phone forced on 3g and get good reception at my home where I was for most of the day.
Can someone please give me some insight here? maybe I'm missing something??

Maybe your battery itself.
There are far to many variables that play a part in battery life.
Look into 5.6 and remember to toggle off data and WiFi when not in use.
Worth a try.
Edit: now I clearly see you toggle WiFi and data off when not in use. Haha sorry.

Agreed, try changing kernel or kernel settings, gov types, speeds, tweak options.
Sometimes it take alot of trial and error to figure out the best rom/kernel combos. May also have to change a few things in the rom and/or kernel to do so. Goodluck!

You can try an app call "Better Battery Stats"

Poor battery life.

I will try to give the back story as fast as I can. I was using synergyROM build like 123 for long time on S3, my screen cracked, and I backed up the phone. When bestbuy got my phone in I picked it up and before I got home it got the OTA update and it took me a bit to find how to root it with the update. got it rooted and restored and than updated to SynergyROM 373(newest build). It was just burning my battery up fast as can be. The phone was getting hot at times of use as well. I read that cleanROM was stable as can be, so I came here. After wiping everything and installing the battery might be a little better but not much.
Questions are, Is it cause something is still messed up from the SynergyROM flash?
Could it be something to do with the phone its self? Maybe its a refurbed phone and something is still wrong with it?
Here are some screen shots of my phone info.

Try not talking on the phone all day and only connect to wifi and 4g when needed. Then post some screenies with screen time on amount

I use my phone for work so I have to talk all the time, so thats not an option. Before this phone I would get though a day just fine.

Usually you want to give a 2-3 days for things to "settle down" before you can start judging the battery life (after rom flash usually). It could also be that you have a defective phone. BetterBatteryStats would also give more details of battery usage.

To me, your battery usage looks normal comparing to your activities.
If anything, I would probably lower my voltage or even underclock your device just a tad to squeeze some battery life out of it.

Under 2 hours battery life on S7 Edge

I have had this problem for quite some time... however I always thought it was completely normal until... I noticed it is not. I read many reviews about this phone found that I should be getting around 5 to 6 hours which seems amazing but completely out of reach. I switched from an old iPhone 6 which made this seem like much better battery life. I used to get a bit more battery life but now not anymore. I am rooted and have tried many methods but all have failed. I am running a close to stock ROM called 'The Galaxy Project' which I like having. I have wanted to post this for quite some time. I charge my phone overnight and need it for the whole day, however it dies at half of the day. I have:
- Always on display off
- Screen res on 720P
- Bluetooth off when I don't need it
- Easy turn on is off
- Mtweaks is set to be a balanced power consumption
- Greenify is running on many apps
- Battery health is approx 84% which is said to be 'good'.
Sometimes I manage around 2 hours and 30 mins but this hasn't been happening very often recently.
Feel free to ask any questions... I have read many forums and none have seemed to help!! I really want to fix this problem.
