Starting a month and half ago my LG Nexus 5 would get hot near the camera (Where the CPU is) and drain the battery unusually fast, even without an active app opened, now I can not keep it on outside because of the drain and even if it stays connected to a charger, it slowly builds a charge because of the drain.

I recently changed the battery and the problem continues to persist.

This started happening around when I went over all the settings in the phone and apps, I fear I might of turned on something that is causing it in the background but I can not figure out the exact problem.

Please help.

Hi minun,

welcome to AndroidPIT! :)

Have you tried a reset? A reset regularly helps with issues like this one.

Do you mean factory reset? That is my last resort so I haven't yet.

I had the same phone, and with time, the same problems appeared. The battery used to die in 2 hours, and the phone was very hot even in winter. I love Nexus, but I had to buy Samsung Galaxy. This Android does not have problems like Nexus.
