CM7 and battery

Hi,
I find battery usage a bit high on CM 7(RC1 and nighly).
Batter Montor widget or CurrentWidget shows values from 6-12 mAh.
With same radio i have 3-5 mA when using default HTC Sense ROM.
I did full wipe factory reset, dalvik, cache etc..
I need some tips how to diagnose the problem and eventually file a bug report.
I am using lates radio 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17, but the problem is the same with older one 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27
I don't think the problem is with the radio itself, because it will be problematic with all ROMs (?)

You do realise that you can post in the CM7 thread. You also realise that RC and nightly builds arn't stable releases?

ofc i know that . I also know that if it is a bug, someone will have to report it. That's the goal of RC after all . May be you should read the whole post after all.

I seem to be having a similar experience with oxygen rom so would be interested in investigating what is causing this. Tried looking at all the usual stuff in QSI to weed out programs that may be causing this problem but nothing jumps out at me. Plus, i'm having the problem with completely clean rom without any apps installed.

same here. battery just runs dry very fast! (after playing a song on youtube, battery goes down for about 6%)

Try a different kernel. I recommend ManU kernel (the CFS-HAVS-AXI-version).

Same comments in spanish forum:
http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=303281&page=21#402
This guy is recommending aEVViollet (..35) kernell.
I'm thinking about changing into Oxygen.
Best regards

It is getting better, isn't it?

Sideload BetterBatteryStats from its app thread here on XDA. See what apps have lots of wakelocks and alarms.

I have the same rom and it works ok for me. You can try searching for BeastMod 1.5 in the xda forum. I find that to be a better and smoother kernel. Also, you might want to turn off data, GPS, and WiFi when you are not using them. If you forget like I do, you can download JuiceDefender from the PlayStore.

Unfortunately, battery calibration is a myth. See here.

Voice search in contacts is out of the screen

Flash causes shut down of phone when take a pricture/make a video with a percentage of battery under 70% - or, if it is greater than 70%, after you take 3 pictures or make 1 minutes of video

No multishoot in camera for pictures (sens 4.x should have it by default)

Infinite scrolling doesn't work (even if it's enabled in Venom Tweaks)

Fixed Contact Voice Icon

When you use google translate taking a picture in order to recognize a text, the result is a blurred image where google transalte can't read anything

In settings -> memory, it's not possible to clear cache in system memory (file LMW.apk missing)

solved -> see link

Model name is wrong in settings -> about ("S710e" insted of "Desire HD with Beats Audio") -> Torxx said that you need to do a Full Wipe and Flash the complete ROM (1.2.2 and then apply 1.2.3 OTA)

Battery jumping when percentage of battery is lower than 60% -> Two possibilities: 1) A new battery is needed 2) Rom Problem -> with new p2pjack kernel, if it's the second one, the problem should be solved.
EDIT: Someone has some problem with this kernel (Beastmode 1.5 MOD v0.1 - 3.0.55) -> p2pjack said that he's going to provide a new kernel (3.0.56) that solve battery problem and headset problem (it was again a problem) -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=35363497&postcount=32

too slow

1) ViperDHD is Full Sense 4.1, instead of Sabsa Prime (Lite Sense 4.1)
2) Everytime you clear cache and dalvik, your ROM will be again smooth
3) More optimizations in Viper (this is only one of my thoughts...this ROM has a bigger team working on it...so, I suppose more effort -> better result)

Ok Torxx...can you suggest me( us) how to set nofrill (or similar) on your rom?

1) face detector and smile capture won't work until a miracle will happen (Desire HD HW doesn't support it) -> maybe some trick SW can help, but nothing till now
2) use sony xloud to increase volume (Venom tweaks and then turn it on in the status bar)
3) battery drain is a common problem -> could be HW (you need to change your battery) or SW (try to flash the kernel posted by p2pjack -> MOD v0.1, or wait for the new one, maybe tomorrow -> you can find it in one thread in Desire HD development area)
4) Camera has several problem...so, you can only wait for the day when it will be completely fixed -> ICS is not GB

Other bugs
I've found two bugs
1) If some automatic text is shown in the status bar (e.g. New sms, with the first part of the text), and you tried to open the status bar, the current date overlaps the automatic text shown
2) If you try to open the camera and immediately after you open the status bar, this overlaps the camera app, but the bar itself disappears

it does not turn on wifi 1.2.2 no problem but Wifi does not work after installing 1.2.3

[Q] Wildfire S battery Stats

Hi all, this is my first post in that forum, with a doubt about my girlfriends wildfire s. I rooted the phone months ago (unlocked + s-on) but cant find a stable and long-last-battery life with a2sd anywhere. Ive tried out with wildchild, cyano 7, miui, stocks and others ive find in htcmania (im spanish) and here in xda. She wants a ROM with Sense because of the widgets and simpleness. Now, shes using a sense 3.5 based one, but battery life cant last long more than 10h with about 1 or 1 and a half screen time... Without a2sd because it makes the phone bootloop and force closes everytime. I checkd the battery with an app that i use in my One X, gsam battery, and got immpresed about the radio drains.
Any help, suggestion? Thanks

Hi mate. I'm spanish too so i guess that you know some spanish developers such as chucky6600. He's permanently developing Sense roms and he's quite obssesed with battery friendly ones. If you are interested please contact me by MP in order not to make spam :angel:

Massive wakelock in Android OS proccess on H815 MM roms. Please help !

Helo to everyone,
I'm facing a serious problem lately. No matter which stock MM rom I flash I get wakelock on Android OS proccess. Let me explain all in details. The way I flash a new rom is as everybody - I wipe all partitions except internal memory and external sd card. Then I flash the new rom and later I restore my apps using titanium backup pro. I find it very usefull as with it I can restore my programs the way they were setup before the rom change/update. It's very usefull if somebody like me is doing some tweaks for battery life with amplify, greenify and etc. in which there are a lot of tweaks and settings that are needed to be applied. There are several several nice guides on xda on how to get a nice battery like my favorite one from our member v7 - ✭[GUIDE][07-02-2016]Extreme Battery Life Thread(Greenify+Amplify+Power Nap)✭ It's very time consuming to make all the tweaks on this guide on a new rom one by one so I use titanium to restore the amplify app with the setup. Anyway all was working fine and I was able to get very nice SOT and great battery life and almost no drain if I don't touch my phone - here is a screenshot what batterylife I was getting before - screenshot 1
In a few days before a new versions from our favorite modified stock roms were posted and I decided to update my rom with one of them and then after setting my phone as usual I noticed extremely hard wakelock on Android OS process. Now my phone cannot enter on deepsleep and if it enters it doesn't sleeps long enough. I did some research and the only thing I found was it maybe from Google play services. I made some screenshots from BetterBattery stats program to show for what I'm talking about. Please check all the screenshots and they speak for themselfs. I tried several guides on how to fix playstore and services but with no luck. I'm almost pretty sure that the problems are in google playstore and google play services as it seems they are running 99% of the time and are preventing my phone to enter deepsleep. I tried to freeze and remove them and my phone entered deepsleep with no problems. I don't play games and don't use any battery hog programs - the only program that is running all the time is facebook which I moded to use without messenger and it was working fine. From the screenshots it is clearly visible that it is not draining my battery. Please if anybody can help me fix this problem please write me what I'm missing or doing wrong.
I had uploaded all the screenshots on my dropbox that I made to help you guys find what my problem is. They are uploaded here also. Thank you for your time ! Wish you all to have the best battery life that is possible

Hi guys,
Today I noticed that the developer of genesys rom found about this wakelock in Android OS proccess and he removed the links to his rom until he fixes it and release a fixed version. I also read that other guys are experiencing the same issue. That is some kind of good news for me because I started thinking that I was doing something wrong, but now after I read that other people are experiencing the same issue on the new version of the genesys rom (3.9) I feel better as the problem is not at my phone and apps setup. So now all we have to do is wait till the problem gets fixed. There wasn't any responses to my thread maybe because all is looking good from my screenshots but it is acting wierd and maybe nobody wasn't able to give me a solution for this problem. But I'm sure that the developers are doing their job and they will get it fixed. Anyway I'm very interesed why this happened and would like to know more about it but we will see this in future. So if somebody else is experiencing the same problem - let's wait patiently till it get's fixed. Thank you all for spending some time to check the thread. Good luck.

A better tool that can help figure what is causing these problems is battery historian.

Generate a bugreport, check it in a txt editor and remove any sensitive info, then upload to the server setup.
You want to do this at the end of a charge cycle so you can closely examine where the drain is happening and maybe get more clues as to why.
Your case is more complicated since you are using a rom. But maybe this can still help.
