Apart from the regular wear and tear which accompanies charging-discharging

a battery, overheating is another reason why a battery could stop lasting as

What Could Cause an Android Phone to Overheat?

Common causes of an overheating Android phone are:

==>Incompatible charger: The charger might be too powerful or not powerful 

enough for the phone

==>Damaged battery: A damaged battery will not charge / discharge efficiently, 

resulting in overheating

==>Running too many heavy apps at a time: Running too many apps or too

 many processor intensive ones at a time will increase the CPU load, causing 

the device to heat up

==>Battery intensive processes: Battery intensive processes like screen 

savers, high screen brightness, 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth etc could result in overheating.
 

==>Over-clocking: Overclocking is like setting the device to work in turbo 

mode by default, definitely a recipe for overheating.

==>Heavy usage while charging: Using CPU intensive processes / heavy 

gaming while charging is another possible cause of overheating.

==>ROM bug: Some ROMs (stock and custom) have power related bugs

==>Buggy/Rogue application(s): A rogue application could be consuming 

system resources selfishly

==>Hardware bug: Some Android phone models are notorious for overheating

==>Poor network coverage: If in an area with poor network coverage, the radio 

 will keep searching for signal and this tells on the battery

==>Insufficient ventilation: Stuffing the phone in your tight pocket, handbag or case 

could cause it to warm up mildly
