Fast charge may possibly be running the phone in an over-voltage situation which is causing hardware problems.

I kind of ran my own test on the lock-up issues after charging overnight. I haven't had a lock-up issue until last night. Here is what I think might be happening.

Before switching to Energy's ROM I had issues all the time with lock-ups. What was happening is I would place the phone on the charger before bed with the battery almost drained (horible battery life until Energy so I always ended the day with 5-10% remaining on the battery). So with the battery almost dead I would have a lock-up about 80% of the time if I charged overnight with the battery below 10% charge remaining.

Once I upgraded to Energy my battery life has been great. I put the phone on the charger at night with little more then 20% remaining on the charge. No lock-up issues at all. Now yesterday I talked and surfed a lot and when I put the phone on the charger last night it had 5% remaining on the battery indicator. Sure as sh*t it locked up for the first time in 3 months using Energy Rom's.

So long story longer, I wonder if it has more to do with the amount of charge remaining when you plug it in at night. I agree you're right with the fast charge enabled and the heat issue but it has always been enabled for me and I never had a problem until last night when I left it charging with such a low battery remaining.

Just a thought from a semi-NOOB.

Let me know what you think.
