No problem. See the ROMs I used in my signature.
As it is already mentioned in many similar threads like yours here, this problem is already concluded. Use the search tools to read first before posting new threads.
General conclusion is,
1. Lithium Polymer Battery (the one used by Universal) problem.
- After my "come with phone Battery" died (only can work between 100% to 98% now, used to be up to 34%) usually after certain number of charging. Mine survive 6 months.
- I have bought 1 new battery and lucky enough it is working and it survive few ROM upgrades and is still working (100% to 0%), about 2 days for my usage.
- I have further tried to buy some more new batteries which unfortunately not working and I have went for an exchange which is also not working and finally get a refund.
- So I have one working battery with me now
2. In some cases, it is Universal (the device) hardware problem.
Maintainence
1. Working battery used only wall charger that comes with the phone.
2. Avoid USB charging. Disable the option in Registry or use the demage battery for Activesync.
3. Some say aviod car Charger as well.
This problem appeared when up rom from beta 15 to AKU 3.5
i have faced this problem too, it come from rom (in my case) when I up rom from beta 15 to AKU 3.5, its can use only for 34% and when I turn on wifi, it is turned off from 40% battery! afetr that, I up rom back to beta 15, everything is ok againt, wifi use untill 15%! what is ther real reason?

Check some of my complaining of new software post in other threads for this problem.
I used to think the same as you did when I upgrade my device from original "come with the phone" Aku1.0 (see my signature) to official Aku2.0 ROM provided by Dopod (see my signature). It just happen to be the same time immediately after upgrade that this 34% problem occurs to me and with more power consumption function (eg Wi-fi, LCD full brightness, bluetooth, play MP3 from SD, etc), it goes off around 60% (the only different from your 15%). Guess what, I keep email & call Dopod even though I read the threads saying it is a battery problem. Until I bought a new battery and also read somewhere to avoid USB charging and my new battery function properly with a few upgrades (see my signature).
I have also tried Ivan & Indra for few hours with my working battery and it is still working today.
And it also happens that I ever bought 2 bad batterys and got refund in the end.
It is about time for me to go and search for a good new battery.
I had the same battery problem and it occured just after upgrade to AKU 2 (Orange UK) from AKU 1. It seems that other people have also experienced the problem after ROM upgrade (it doesn't appear to matter what the ROM version is.)
I wonder if the process of reflashing the ROM has any bearing on the problem:
- does it put any extra stress on the battery?
- does it reset an internal counter or upset the battery calibration?
Just a thought.
Sandy.
Me too. Auto shutdown occurs just after upgrade to Helmi AKU 3.3 rom. With old AKU2 rom, it never happens and can use until very low battery.
I also don't think it is battery problem. Any idea?
My problem was cured once I installed a new battery. And it definately seems to be a problem with the battery or battery circutry, but the problem seems to be triggered by a ROM flash (in some cases.) Maybe the perfomance of the battery deteriorates over time, but the unit can compensate. Once a new ROM is flashed, it forgets the measurments that it has taken over time to compensate and then can no longer recover.
I've been seeing sporadic posts in different threads about battery consumption in WM6.1 ROMS.
Well, it turns out that since starting to use WM6.1, I've noticed a dramatic decline in my battery life. I can maybe squeeze out a day of use with minimal use. If I use HSDPA / Voice / WiFi - forget it, I get 1-2 hours before the battery drops to nearly zero.
I used to get much better life out of my battery before.
I tried playing with different ROMs, then different Radio version - to no avail - battery life sucks.
Any tips / ideas / comparisons on how to get reasonable performance with WM6.1 or is this just my battery having issues?
I think this would be more your device...
To check this, go back to your manufacturers ROM, and see if the same still happens. Also try this test with no 3rd party applications installed.
Poor battery life is usually cause by either:
1) Applications using 100% CPU
2) Faulty ROM
3) Faulty Phone or Battery.
If you're tried multiple ROMs, I'd say you can rule out #2.
I get around 2 1/2 days out of the stock 1350mAh battery on my hermes.
Hi
ygeller , i had some battery life problems with my hermes and i found on another thread some ppl saying to first flash the ATT rom RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_3.62.502.3_6275_1.54.07.00_108_UOOS_SVN05_Ship
and then the cooked one. That worked wonders for me, the radio version 1.54.07.00 is the best i tryed so far for battery life and network stability.
I'am using the latest PDAViet rom and no problems so far, with battery holding for 2 to 3 days with normal use.

I have issues with charging too with my phone never charging full no matter how long i keep the charger on it get's stuck at 80%...
But good news is that I've arrested the drain now i flashed the PDAcorner pr0 V3 yesterday and through the entrire night the drain was less that 1% but it hasn't solved the drain if I use voice/data cause an 11 min call had my battery coming down from 63% to 16% ..
I guess i am gonna try and flash the stock ROM as compumad says..
I guess at least the charging issue is due to faulty ROM ( i hope)..
Thanks guys for input..
I agree that I get better battery life with the 1.47.30.0, in addition to aquiring a signal faster. The BIGGEST fix for me however was replacing my year old battery with a good quality Li-ion battery. Now I go a full day with hardly any drain using anybody's ROM, of course YMMV
I am having the same experience. I tried several WM6.1 ROMs and they always drained the battery within 1 day. I am back on Schap's ROM now and I can work for up to 3 days with HSDPA and BT on. About 1 month ago I returned my Hermes because of a defect and HTC replaced the complete inner life of my phone. So this can be compared to a more or less new Hermes.
As a comparison, I recently received a Wizard as a gift and flashed it with the WM6.1 ROM of SNN and believe it or not, the battery lasts for amazing 5 days! And that is with GPRS and BT on!
So, are we talking a major device issue, a ROM issue or is there something I'm missing here?

I've been on the current Shamanix`s WM6 Ultimate v2 FINAL [SuperStorage] ROM for a while and indeed the battery drains very quick- I've had to schedule Exchange email to be on for 2 hours now but a simple 20-30 min voice call drains the battery by about 30-40%!
I was on Schap's ROM but was waiting for his latest update. Will have to consider another one.
I have also had the same issue as people here with the battery running down very quickly.I did try going back to schaps 4.31 but did not seems to make a difference anymore.Will try going nack to standard rom and then changed to cooked and post if there is any difference.
are u guys serious? 2.5days out of the stock battery?
my battery is a 1300mAH and i get a week and a bit on standby, constant txting wifi, screwing around, i get at least 4 days.
now that i have a 1650mAH i cant even kill it in a day (wifi bluetooth and gsm all going at the same time)
theres a 3000mAH battery coming in the mail, if im gentle with it it should last.... 0.5 months?

you need to resync your battery circuit, charge your phone till your phone cant charge it anymore, then drain it till you cant even turn it on (no lights at all), charge it up again and it should be reading correctly.
here is more info about Li-ion and Li-Poly charge circuits.
see subheading "Guidelines for prolonging Li-ion battery life"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_ion
I also had a severe battery drain with several 6.1 ROMS. My main culprit was caused my certain applications not closing properly and running at 50%-100% CPU. The main apps were Internet Explorer, Windows Live, Poutlook, basically network based apps. For some reason the app wouldn't show up as running. It wasn't until I got a new task manager that showed "processes" that I found the culprit. I would make sure all these processes were "killed" and my battery life lasted a lot longer.
I eventually went back to a 6.0 ROM, as I couldn't take all the problems.

Unfortunately, I've done that without planning. I am constantly fully charging the phone - then it drains and dies after a few morning phone calls...
This doesn't help...
OK. I am flashing the ATT ROM to see what gives.
Already it's been a chore. I haven't flashed stock ROMs in quite a while - had to extract the NBH file and use in with a cooked ROM wrapper to get it to flash.
Will report back with results.

Have Flashed ATT, then PDA Corner Pro V3. I didn't have much faith in the voodoo of flashing the official ROM to magically repair stuff - and so far I can't say that I've seen much change...
too bad...

You put PDA into bootloder mode and the flash, no need to jumpthrough hoops.
Actually the AT&T Official has repaired numerous bad flashes for me, is a lifesaver.
I have been a user of the stock AT&T WM6 Rom for many months. Before that, I had the stock Cingular 8525 WM5 Rom, and many of the cooked WM6 ones, starting with an early Black, a couple of Custel's, Sleuth's, and a few others. I now use personal derivations of the stock AT&T WM6 Rom that I have been cooking up over the past few months.
I have NEVER had good battery life on my 8525, with ANY ROM at all. Left alone, my battery dies after only a few hours. I have learned to live with this, always carrying a second (charged) battery, and I have chargers at home, at work, and in my car, in order to deal with the issue.
I must ask, when others say they get 2 or more DAYS out of a charge with "normal use", please define what "normal use" is for you.
My "normal use" includes checking 4 email boxes, one of them push, one at at 30 minute intervals, and two hourly. I use PocketWeather, which I have doing updates at 30 minute intervals for 4 locations. 1-calc updates monetary exchange rates daily. I make/receive only a couple of phone calls daily (yes, a BIG battery-killer), and I rarely receive text messages. No MMS at all. I utilize Bluetooth devices during my commutes in both directions, only use WiFi at home (another big battery drainer, but since I'm at home, it doesn't matter). I keep the IR port turned off unless I'm actively using it. I am on the internet with my device every chance I get, using the normal AT&T WAP access point with an unlimited plan.
I feel that with the amount of usage I get out of my device (especially Internet and emails), I can accept the poor battery performance.
But I am curious ... those of you who claim much higher numbers for battery life under "normal usage" ... please explain what "normal usage" means to you. I have never seen anything close to the numbers that have been posted by many.
FWIW, my two batteries are: 1 stock 1300mAh, and one is a Boxwave 1350 mAh. Both are well over a year old.

I'm forced to agree with pvs. I'm in a very similar situation: I use the stock AT&T WM6 ROM, although I've used a couple of other ROMs and Radios before this.
If I set my 8525 to auto-poll my 4 mailboxes every 15-60 minutes, I always notice a definite decrease in battery life. In the beginning, I'd get the "low battery" notification before I even left work late in the afternoon (this is after getting a full charge the night before). In between then and now, I turned off auto-polling. I couldn't get any new mail unless I did a manual send/receive...but my battery life improved dramatically; I could get nearly two full days' usage out of it before having to charge at night.
I was fairly confident it had something to do with that data-connection required to update the mail, and I feel that it's confirmed: 3 days ago, I found a registry edit that turns off the 3G/data connection after being idle so many minutes (I have mine set to 2 mins). I can now auto-poll my boxes, but my battery life has decreased again...not QUITE as bad as before, but I pretty much have to charge it every night, now.
(Additional "normal" usage for me has always included using Bluetooth for a headset and several calls during the day, varying in length...around 30-50 minutes total talk time, if I had to guess.)
Frankly, I'm surprised at the people who say they're able to leave their data connection on all day (even if it's sending no data in certain moments) and see no appreciable battery-drain. This is my second 8525 and second battery, and my experience has remained the same.
I was going to try and find some sort of push EMail solution...but to make matters worse, I've been doing research and unless I'm misunderstanding things, it looks like WM6's version of "Push EMail" requires that "constantly-on" data connection. I'm frustrated, and I'm seriously considering getting a Blackberry.
If someone can come up with some alternative ideas, I'd love to hear them, but...even though I love my 8525...my patience is starting to wear thin with it.

If you want to leave your connection on all the time and have a battery for the day and night....Blackberry. My tytn is fun to play with and flash but for my email it's blackberry.

Good grief. Is this the consensus of everyone? I'd hate to give up my 8525, since it has Windows Mobile versions of what I work with, plus some pretty nifty games and apps...but I want a device I can both work AND play with. So far, the 8525 is falling down on the Work/EMail end.
I've dodged the blackberry for so long because of 1) no touchscreen, 2) it lacks the versatility of a true PC (ideally, PCs can be used for work and play; blackberries seem meant primarily for work). Plus, I don't know if the Blackberry's "push" EMail features will work any better with my particular mailboxes (i.e., it may have to constantly "poll" those boxes as well, which may result in similar battery drain).
BTW: It's noon here, after 3-4 calls this morning (around 25 minutes or so), EMailboxes updating (2 at 30 mins, 2 at 60 mins), Bluetooth off, and having read 2 CNN articles (and closing it right after)...my 8525 is at 70% power. X-(

Hi there,
so i gotta HTC one x last week, my first android..and I've gotta say that so far im hugely disappointed.
The phone has been draining battery like crazy ever since I got it. I've been charging it more than I've been using it, while it runs for no more than 4 hours when fully charged and heats up quite quickly. The battery usage options shows that the battery is being used mostly by Android OS and Android systems (over 85% for the former).
My friend suggested that i install a custom rom because it might be that the OS is corrupt. I bought the phone brand new and it came packed with an ICS stock rom. In the recovery mod the phone states that it is an S-off, with a CID #111111.
So i flashed the phone last night and installed a Jelly Bean Bindroid rom but the problem still persists. The phone drains the battery even when on stand by.
The phone runs fine besides the battery running out way too quickly issue.
Could anyone please help me with deterring what the cause of this problem might be and if the S-off thing has anything to do with it? and if so, how can I solve this battery problem? could it be a hardware issue?
Please help me. Im a NOOB at this!!!
Thank you in advance.
Might be a faulty battery. Look for a replacement OEM battery.
Sent from my MB886 using xda app-developers app
Check task manager too see which apps are running. Disable background sync if it's enabled, delete htc sense account if you have added it in account settings (it's a real battery hog).
Also, try to charge the phone to 100% battery 2-3 times and then check the battery performance.
Use BetterBatteryStats (search on here for the apk and instructions on how to use it).
Or, factory reset.
Hi,
I've searched through various threads here and in the development/ROM forums but need some advice and didn't find advice for my specific scenario.
From Jan - Sept this year I was rooted but running the stock 4.1 Android (Rogers), I tried CM10 and a few other custom ROM's but eventually went back to stock carrier TW, with the only root change being the 4.2 Camera (for Photosphere) being installed (via CMW). During that time my device ran pretty ok in terms of battery life.
Then in Sept I started getting serious battery drain issues. I've got a few extra batteries and an external battery charger so I ended up swaping in and out charged batteries twice or three times a day.
So I decided to re-enter the root world and have since tried a variety of ROM's to see if the battery issues might be fixed. Installed TWN recovery rather than CWM, Tried ROM's such as Task650, CM10 Stable, CM10 Daily, and I still am encountering pretty dismal battery life?
I've tried various battery apps and generally keep screen brightness to a minumum, turn off mobile data, and have wifi/gps/bluetooth/sync off for most the day
I can't imagine it's the battery themselves, 1 is the original that came with my GS3 last year, 1 is official Samsung bought a few months ago and two are Anker ones that worked fine for months.
Can anyone recommend a specific ROM that may have worked for you? I haven't really messed around with custom kernals much, only played with kernals and governors a while back when trying out SETCPU (which I havent used in ages).
Any ideas?
Thank You.
Try the app BetterBatteryStats and see what is using up the battery. After a few hours of having the phone idle, look up the process running on the phone that uses the most wake locks.
Hi,
BBS did not really reveal one glaring thing draining the battery while the screen was off.
Any other ideas?
Help please.. i updated my note 8 in the latest version 11.0.4 global version and
I recently experiencing slow charging.. from 6-8 hrs of charging until its full
But the worst is when i turn off my unit (totally) it wont charge
No battery bar or anything.. please help
Thanks for the feedback
Help me please.. is it software fault or hardware pls give me feedback thanks
Well i'm on 11.0.4 Global too from the day that it came out and i don't face anything similar, the charging speed has always been really fast as the first day of usage.
Plus, you're asking for a feedback but it isn't that simple to provide one since that you've provided no further details about the situation: by what i read at the moment, you've encountered this issue only after that you've updated the device to the latest build, but on the same build this doesn't happens by my side. Do you face other issues other than battery charging speed, or not?
Now, assuming that your charger is in an optimal condition and that the phone never felt to the floor that hard to compromise battery status, are you sure you didn't made ANYTHING else that could cause this? Facing a slow charging time on stock ROM and stock charger it's really weird and if you didn't touched anything else, i just can't find an answer to justify this behavior in stock ROM.
Hi Lads,
i recieved the same bug after updating to 11.0.4.0(PCOMIXM). The device is only online since december, so quite young
What did i done so far:
- Loaded a the Ampere App to check if the smartphone regonize the chargeingcable correctly. It does
- With the app i was able to see that the current while loading is between 100mA to max 450mA.
- I switched the charger to an Qualcom Quickdash Charger here the current jumps sometime up to 4400mA but only for seconds before falling down to 10mA
- I did a factory reset twice. First with replaying the googlebackup, second without googlebackup. With no difference. Still stucking on 100mA
Is there a possibilty to get back to a earlier Version of MiUi?
Next thing i'll try is to load the smartphone over the weekend to get more then 40% battery so that i can try to switch to a custom rom.
