Help Ever since I rooted my Galaxy Nexus has been slow, battery drains faster and takes longer to charge.

[HuskerDude]

Hello,
I noticed my Galaxy Nexus is a lot slower ever since I rooted. The battery also drains a lot faster and takes forever to charge. When I'm charging and using it as a hotspot it decharges, something that never happened before rooting. I could use hotspot and it would still charge.

I'm thinking about unrooting, but I also think some rooting options might help, like custom roms?

Has anyone come across similar issues?

Did you just root or did you also flash a custom Rom?

Welcome to the forums, HuskerDude!
How long have you had your Gnex? It's possible the battery is hitting its end of life.
Have you installed a custom recovery, and if so, I'd recommend performing a backup and then a factory reset.
Also, which version of the Nexus do you have?

I own three different batteries, I doubt it's the battery life. Hm I don't think I installed a custom recovery, how can I do that. I own a Verizon Galaxy Nexus.
