hey guys...
wanted to ask you if it's the same on your devices...
my old hero displayed every single percentage of the battery.. .(also with battery graph..) the new defy now only makes/takes &displays 10 % steps...
100,90,80,70....
the battery life is okay.. but it's really a little bit strange...
nerver ever had such a behaviour on any device..
greetings
Same here, and, it should be the same for all the defys. So, i think it's ok
Mine does the same thing and it really bugs me... Battery life is great, but only displaying 10% increments is just plain annoying.
It's not a bug, it just depends of the battery driver. My old Spica displays 10% steps too.
Really strange but thanks for confirming

Hello all together
I'm browsing xda for a little more than a year now. You guys helped me a lot!
First I want to apology my english, I hope you understand what I want to say
Not a long time ago the battery of my WFS lasted up to 3 days (incredible if I think of it now).
That was with a self rooted stock rom and some changes (bravia, turboboost script, oc-kernel, etc.).
Out of nowhere I had problems with my calendar.sync.provider. Processes htc.bg and htc.bgp used the most of my battery (found out with Battery Mix).
I could watch the percent falling... Battery was getting very hot.
After i killed calendar.provider and calendar itself those bg-processes disappeared and all went back to normal.
Installed m1nd's rom, tried a lot of different settings, used calengoo instead of normal calendar (uninstalled the other)...
But battery life was never the same since then.
We also had a really rough winter and I was outside a lot. my battery began to drain faster. First I began to install apps like "auto wifi toggle" to stop that battery drain, after all I just bought a new battery this spring - 1500mAh.
But other than i expected - battery life did not increase. So I decided to install CM7.2 (wanted to do it anyway - great work btw!).
And guess what, nothing changed...
You will find some screenshots at the end... (did barely use the phone this 4 hours)
So what can I do? I'm desperate. The battery does not hold the whole day...
Please give me some tipps (if you have others than the general battery saving thread) or at least cheer me up
tl;dr: Phone works for 10h (mail,text, no phones, no games) - Changing battery & ROM does not fix battery drain...
Thank you in advance!
it happens to me too unfortunately, i charge it everyday or every 2 days
when i play a small mini game for a few minutes, battery drains like over 10% in a few minutes.
Have you tried calibrating the battery?

Hey scilax can you please tell me how to. Calibrate the battery.
Me too get a smaller backup when 3g is used for some 3 to 4 hours.
Please tell about that calibrating

Thing is, I charge my phone everyday. And I've been using CM7 or CM9, battery life never lasts more than a day. If it's only lasting 4-10 hours. Check your sync settings. Keep it only on 2G networks if using data. Get a battery saving application, in my opinion, it sounds like your using a lot of mobile data/wifi.
Hey everyone,
Ive installed the new 7.0 Revolution rom 2 days ago for my HTC ONE X.
ive calibrated and fully charged my battery once but it seems that my battery drains really fast.
The current seem to be very high - goes between 200-700MA.
Id love to get some tips to improve my battery life..
when using my 3g it seems that every minute or so one percent goes down, im sure its not normal.
thanks!

Just let the battery cycle though 3-4 charges and you will start to see a noticeable difference in battery life. Stay clear of battery calibration apps - they just screw up your batterystats.bin file
I have a strange problem with CM9 . I noticed that when i use the phone until the battery is too low , less than 10% , then leave it with no use for a while the battery percentage increase .For example it was 2% and suddenly it became 5% with no charging .
P.S : Just flashed CM9 with no changes, mods ,or tweaks.
Thanks

hi,
i had that problem too, it was just the battery being on the way to it's death. first, there was the thing you described, then, after a while, i noticed that the battery bloated up a little. i continued using it until it eventually didnt fit in the case anymore and bought a new one then. i was using cm9 b3 at that time and i still am, since it's not a cm9 issue, just bad quality of the battery. so, consider buying a new battery soon

Hahahaha, it's very common, I'll try to explain it to you: If you are using your smartphone quite hard (games, internet...) it starts to calculate how much time rimains using battery (specially when it's under 15%), and it changes the percentage, but when you stop using it, the mobile phone recalculates again how much time it remains and change again the percentage, but it improves because you are no longer using it so the battery will work for more time.
Sorry for my bad english, I hope you will understand.
Thanks guys , so is it the battery dying or just the phone calculating how much my battery will last ?

Welcome!
I have a strange problem.. I bought a second battery to my Desire - 'FOREVER' brand. Battery indicator says whole the time 100% or even sometimes 102%.. And sometimes shows : 20 % and that value get higher and higher.. I like that.. But Its not true value
If I switch the battery to orginal, battery indicator shows normal Value. I try wipe my mobile many times, changed roms and all that 'software' stuff... But still I have that problem.
And The Question : what wrong with my second battery? Its a battery problem? Or My Mobile? Or something else?
Its worth it to give battery to warranty? Any sense and hope, that they fix this problem?
Or maybe every battery that I will use it, not from HTC brand has a similar problem?
Please help me.
Thanks!

You've basically answered your own question:

You bought a bad battery, warranty won't be much help as they'll send you a replacement, probably won't work either. I'd return it if possible, go for reputable or official brand, read a few reviews before buying. Sometimes paying a bit more in this case is worth it.
Thanks for Reply. Now I trying to use program to monitor battery and Estiminate lifetime of battery after few cycle based on usage level by the user.
The battery is functioning normally. The only problem is then - when suddenly, my phone turns off .. i do not know how much time it will work. It's annoying because I always have to wait until it self turns off.
We'll see if this helps.
I installed led me know a week ago, works really fine, I also use arc lighting, have anybody noted led me know app using a high ammount of battery? It uses more juice than nova, or whatsapp, almost double, is it normal?
Well, it seems no one had a say in this topic, but, I obtained the answer from playstore, as today an update appeared adressing the issue of the high battery comsuption, among some other improvements/features

Did battery life get better then?

Please reply ?

On one hour 14 min it is taking 2.6% of battery juice on my note 10 plus I think it's normal.
In the past week this is my battery usage in photo #1. The second photo is today's battery usage so far.
Led me know battery usage most definitively improved a lot, as for not considering it a battery hog as before, which makes me really happy, as it is a very nice and useful app
