Phone not booting if kept idle - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm currently using Asus ZenFone2 Laser(ZE550KL) on Android 5.0.2
Build 1.17.40.1531_20160428
My phone was working fine on this version since more than a year. But a couple of weeks ago, problem started.
Before going to sleep, I have approx 60-70 percent battery left and I keep my phone switched on.
But when I wake after 6 hours of sleep, phone is switched off and doesn't boot. If i keep it on charging, notification led is not lit(while phone is still off).
It boots up 10-15 minutes after I keep it on charging.
Same thing happens if i switched off phone before going to sleep.
Battery works fine, no issues in phone during day
I tried factory reset but it did not helped.
Is it a hardware problem?
Edit: After 4 days, I'm now having trouble charging my phone. Sometimes it charges, sometimes it don't.

Battery stops charging

In the last week or so I've had an issue getting my phone to finish charging.....it charges to ~90%, then stops. If I hit the home button it finishes charging within 10 minutes. I've left my phone plugged in all night and woke up in the morning to find it charged to 90%, then in 2 minutes it says it's done.
I would normally just shrug it off and say well I guess it thought it wasn't done for some reason....however, I've noticed that if it doesn't say 100% when I unplug it, it's dead with about 3 hours of constant use, instead of my normal 5-6 hours of constant use.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I do really abuse my battery, given it's almost fully dead and charged 5 days a week....should I just buy a new one on ebay???
Rooted X10a flashed to global 2.1 well before these issues arose, and no new apps installed or changes made from the time my battery was acting fine until this problem arose.
The problem with X10 is when the battery is fully load the devices will cut the power- stop charging . So in the morning you got approximately that much.

[Q] Quirky battery issue after phone refused to boot

last night i had my tbolt charging. the phone was off while charging, and it was left plugged in for a few hours beyond the led changing over to green.
after i unplugged the phone and went to turn it on, well... it wouldn't turn on. i did feel the initial vibrate i always get right before the htc screen comes on, however, the screen never came on. i ended up having to pop the battery out and then after putting it back in the phone booted normally.
however, now it seems as though my battery is draining way faster than it has been. i've had the phone a few weeks and the battery has been properly conditioned. after taking it off the charger at approx 2:00am this morning, a mere 10 hours later (whilst completely in standby for the entire time) it's already down to 83%.
what gives? could this just be an accuracy issue with the reported levels? i've read about fully charging and booting in to recovery to reset battery stats. or is it a far worse issue and something has happened to my phone that's damaged the battery in some way?
btw, i'm rooted and running das bamf remix 1.7 with imoseyon's leankernel (running in normal mode with swap enabled).
just a quick update:
after some moderate use (texting, web browsing, downloaded a few market apps) the battery continues to drop much faster than it ever did before. i'm using wifi at the moment.
Have you cleared battery stats lately?

no, but i'm going to do just that tomorrow after work when i have a chance to fully charge the phone.
one other thing i just realized that may be contributing to the problem though... my g/f was playing around with my phone and she signed into latitude. doh!

My battery has lost its mind

So, I'm not sure what is happening - my phone battery is all over the place.
It started about a week ago - I'd see my phone battery at let's say 51%. We go out - take perhaps 2-3 pics, and my battery is down to 2%. Mind you - I haven't used the phone until I took it out to take the pics. Data was turned on, but no GPS or Bluetooth, no phone calls, nothing. From 51% to 2% in a matter of about 3 minutes or so. Then it dies - I plug it into the charger and it shows 26%. It charges upto 28%, we get out of the car and I unplug and take the phone with me.
When we get back in the car, plug it back in and it shows 74%. Doesn't change from 74 for a good 15mins and then goes up to 76% by the time I get home about an hour later.
Restart the phone at the 76% and within the first 10minutes it's dropped to 38%.
This has been the pattern, give or take, the last week now. I have no idea what's going and why it's happening.
I have not installed any new apps in the last month, and the phone is not rooted (G925I).
I have also tried to let the phone charge to 100% once it's died and then within 3-4 hours, the battery is dead on minimal usage.
I am not using the charger that came with the phone - am on travel and have a smaller travel charger, but this has never been an issue with the same phone before.
Any and all help is very much appreciated.
Thank you in advance!

You should probably use the samsung warranty because that is not normal

Same thing happened to me yesterday. I used tap tap shortcut to launch camera and shot few pics, videos. And then after maybe an hour without using my phone (no data, no gps) i looked at my phone and it had 1% battery left then it shut off. When i got home i plugged charger and after 10 minutes battery was 65%.
As for my situation I guess it's related with camera. I didn't exit camera app, just locked my phone using power button while camera was open and this happened. It's the first time that i'm encountering this, so it's hard to tell. Btw i'm using xtrestolilte 2.4.
I got the same kind of issues. My battery is crazy, I let it with Wi-Fi only, no Sync, no download and it lose 7% in an hour.
Sometimes I may just be on twitter and it looses about 2% every 5 minutes which is CRAZY !
Also, last time it turned off because I had 0%. I tried rebooting and it was at 10% xD.
Samsung did a terrible job with the S6, I don't know what it is exactly but it's weird.

Battery life on Truesmart+

I am using TS+ for about a week.
But I noticed that the battery life is too short.
I used only about 5~10 minutes screen on.
I set wifi on, cellular on, bluetooth off and disabled the sync of gmail.
TS+ only last about 16hr, just suddenly shutdown with battery status displayed 79%.
When I charge the TS+, it shows battery is 0%, and starts to charge from 0%.
Is this normal?
The battery is totally dead(0%) when I unboxed TS+.
I thought phone should still have battery around 50%, when they first arrived.
My OG TS got days of use and weeks of standby but had the same battery bug. Come to think of it, every MTK6572 based smartwatch I've seen has the exact same bug. I guess MTK and the various brands never bothered to fix it.

I have the exact same problem with my TS+. I hope a firmware update can fix it
I tried to use only phone stand by (no 3G data, no wifi, no bluetooth).
My TS+ last for 5 days and 6 hours.

Question Week old phone stopped charging/Working

Phone drained off and I saw the logo then it shutdown, from there on its not charging or turning on. I kept it on charge for 3 hours and can feel some heat coming from the back but what ever I try its not turning on for some reason. Was working fine and charging just fine till it drained off.
