Description

Battery drains so fast a charger cannot even keep up with it. Phone gets dangerously hot. I have tried rebooting and opening nothing but HA and will have the same issue. My phone was at 100 percent charge at midnight. And by 8 about 50 percent. I wasn't using it. Didn't even have HA active. The setting to disable background connection for hidden windows or tabs after 5 minutes is also enabled.
