I am new to this forum so forgive me if i am asking a question answered a lot. But, I wonder if this phone is ok since it runs out of power in four hours with no use other than receiving emails (not even answered on this phone).
The charge this morning took only an hour but then in 4 hrs was down to one bar.
Also, the phone is very warm on the camera side.

That sounds much too short to me. The phone can get warm during phone calls longer than 15 minutes and when charging, but it should last a lot longer on a charge than you described.

The thread is almost a month old but I hope I can still help out. A lot of people don't realize that the brightness level on their device is sometimes set to 100%, which can kill the battery VERY quickly. Try lowering it down to 30% or so, where it's still very visible and still saves a lot of battery.
Let me know if that works out.
