[Question] Galaxy Tab A6 draining battery when off - Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers

Hi.
I've had a Samsung Galaxy Tab A6 (SM-T580) for 2 years now.
About half a year ago, it started to behave differently. Batterylife suddenly shortened by a lot, the back of the machine (to the right of the flashlight) is constantly warm (or hot when charging or in use), even when turned off it's still warm and drains battery. Overnight it drained 30 percent in 7 hours while turned off.
And it charges very slowly. It takes about 30 hours or so to get a full charge.
It has LineageOS and Android 11. I even tried replacing the battery with a new one, but nothing changed.
I know it's little to go on, but any idea what to do?
Thank you.

Tab 4 Battery

I got a t330nu and have had some wierd things happen with the battery that I've not experienced with other mobile electronics. First, one cold winter day (I live in the north were it snows alot) I was driving and my battery died, I accidentally left it in the car overnight and when I plugged it in the next day it was at like 87 percent. I unplugged it and it remained at 87 percent for maby 2 hours and then screen went black and it died. It still showed 87 percent untill it died. Plugged it I and charged it back up and everything was normal. I haven't wanted to try to replicate it cuz I don't want to have to replace the battery.
Next wierd thing is sometimes when I use an underpowered charger or my car charger, it shows the plugged in but not charging icon and it actually is charging, my battery says like 2 percent but it will last for hours. I don't like doing this but it has happened on occasion.
Has anyone else experienced this? Any thoughts on the freeze charging? Comments, questions are welcome. But don't hate lol.
Forgot to mention, I've had this for over a year and battery seems fine given the age. I can usually use it all day on a full charge depending on what I'm doing. But GPS kills it in like 3 or 4 hours and some other games and apps drain it stupid fast. Any tips on kernels or roms that help with battery life?
I dont think that leaving tablet to low temp fr 12 hrs or so wont damage it that much, i got my 7.0 version and walked to school at -27 celsius and it lost none % (walked like 15 mins)

[Q] [HELP] Battery drains so fast even idle.

Help guys, my battery drains so fast. It charges so fast also drains so fast like 1 hour and 35 mins of usage and its dead. Then when I charge again it instantly goes 40%+ again even though my battery just went 0%. I tried many roms, kernels and chargers. No hope
I have same issue it even sometimes charges very slow and when its on charger and I'm using my phone battery drains.
Is this a problem with battery or my phone?
* I use stock charger and OTG

I have a used Note 3, one year within my posession (I'm thinking this here's 1.5 years old.) I think it's a problem within the BATTERY itself. Fortunately, spares are fairly easy to find and for cheap. I tried another battery and it gave me 3+ hours screen on time consistently no matter the usage when the original battery could barely eke out 2.

Phone refusing to work with every battery I put in it

So I have an S3 neo and it is about 3.5 years old and it has been starting to drain battery pretty quickly and I thought maybe it just needed a new battery so I had two laying around,one was dead but the second was perfectly functional so I put it in the phone and it is still draining,and I tried these batteries on a Galaxy S3 and they worked fine.
And now I had the batteries charged to 100 percent and they would drain in literally half an hour where I can usually get let's more than half a day. And it charges at let's say normal rate when using the phone while charging,and when it is idle it charges a bit too fast than usual.
What can I do? This is really bumming me out,and could it be because I set it to performance governor?
Did you calibrate the new battery?

Slow charge, fast drain

So I had this 910C for a while. Still love this phone but recently the stand by time kept decreasing. This was my second battery but I used fast charging, so I thought what the heck, I will just buy a new one.
Well I did, and the stand by time is just as bad. Almost half my battery is gone by the morning, and the battery barely wants to charge as well. (it's like the phone is cold and the charger is also just lukewarm.)
So what the heck?
Is there a known hardware defect on the Note 4 for this?
Even if I could replace the phone (but why when it works great otherwise), I would still like to keep it around as a secondary device.
Any ideas?
Ps.: Now when I was writing this, my phone also got quite hot but the AUKEY portable charger is cold. My percentage was 16-17 and it could not go higher.
Well, after long hours of charge the new battery does show 100%, but when I make a call the phone gets extremely hot. Like it burns my face.
This morning I watched like 5 minutes of Netflix and that ate ~20% of my battery.
The battery does not get hot, is not bulked up, it's very hot around the main chip...
Using latest Samsung OS btw, don't even have root installed atm.
