Ok, so not long ago, my battery decided to have a thermal meltdown on me. Amazingly, my phone actually survived intact and even still works after the battery was replaced by my service provider's in store repair techs.

Problem is that since I had my battery replaced, my sensor cluster, including the gyro, keep randomly failing. I can verify by checking the HWmodule applet using *#0*#. When my sensors stop working, I check that and none of my sensors read anything, but they'll pass self tests jist fine. This causes me to have to power cycle my phone. Sometimes, that doesn't work and I have to power cycle into safe mode and back, then it will work. Again, verified using the hwmodule applet. Not sure what's happening with the thing, but it's becoming extremely annoying.

And to top it off, just a day or two before the battery and sensor cluter issue, I had just installed a software update, but I don't know if I can attribute my issues, at least partially to that, or not.

Does anyone have any idea? Thanks in advance.
