Hi!
I am running oxygen 2.0 and i know battery is great for some users, so something must be preventing my phone from sleeping. Sis a full wipe when flashing.
Drain is fairly bad with about 5-10% / hour. Wifi enabled. I came from a stock rooted ROM wich had twice the battery usage. Is there any way to tell what processes is preventing sleep?
Thanks!

Anyone? No apps or scripts to fix this? Really annoying. In the Oxygen thread people get 1-2 hour per percent, i cant go under 2%/hour even with just idling.
Trying a new ROM now, so will do another test tomorrow
Make sure your wifi sleep policy is set to never. I've not had any problems with battery usage on Oxygen. I also have the screen brightness very low.

Thanks for the tips. Already set WiFi to never, and i have auto brightness as Adam suggested in the thread. Adjusted it further down even.
What widgets you use?

Try PowerTutor - it helps to define, what app is showing too much activity, when phone sleeps.
Another app is Wheres My Droid Power which tells you what app is using most of you battery!
Widgets: Pure Calendar, Weather widget (with 6 hour update), facebook, power control.
Thanks for the tips! I will be sure to check those out

Are you rooted or no? Go through accounts and sync and turn off what you don't need. Go to apps in settings and remove + disable as many apps and services as you can as long as they aren't vital to your os. Don't use HTC preinstalled software; it drains battery.
Turn screen brightness to auto. Try to use a plain wallpaper preferrably dark. Remove a lot of widgets from your wallpaper. Turn off haptic feedback and only show some animations. Reboot your phone.

Do a battery test. You should get 88percent left after test.

I got about 78% after the built in HTC battery test, directly after a format. Unfortunately according to the test, over 70% is a pass.
How long did you play this Glowball Demo? 3D Games consume a lot of Battery. Also, turn on USB Debugging, in some cases this also helps.

any reason why that would help with battery life? though that only kicked in once a USB is connected?
Sorry, but I can't give a reason. I read something about /init Process that does take CPU time and might drain the battery. But I'm not this deep into the system.
A friend of mine uses a DHD and on his device it worked significantly. So I'm only telling what I heard :/

Hi guys,
last few days I'm going crazy with my HOX, its just performing badly.
Battery drain is obvious, and it is constantly warm or very warm on top.
I dont have anything special on it, using it for business, several mail accounts with Smart Sync, FB, TW, LN, Viber. Hardly play any games. Surf a lot on 3G/WiFi, but I need to charge it very often, every few hours.
What to do?

You have a rogue app causing partial wakelocks.
Please use this app to get more info

Ok I gonna try to help. Download antutu battery saver. It made a difference on my hox sadly it seems if you use ur hox not over Wifi and you do anything data like stuff it drains it like crazy. Also install system toolbox for the hox. They both help improving battery life.

Thnx 4 help.
Main problem is that I don't have ROOTed phone.
Any experience with apps? Can Viber do this drain?
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
Try gsam battery monitor. Look for it in play store. I don't think it requires root.
I don't think viber would cause so much drain. But a good battery monitor app Will help you pin point rogue apps.

Oh no Rott i understand. Well it does sound like an app causing an issue and like fellow members suggest try one of the apps to download i have the betterbatterystats old free version if u need it it still work on the htc one x. Or one other but also way more annoying thing you can do is factory resseting ur phone download the apps one by one and then you can see what app is causing the issue. But yeah somehow using the HOX over cellphone data rather then Wifi seems to drain it fast i do have the same issue. it is unpleasent. you also could look in to something like this http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B008LK1Z4G/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&smid=A1EPR23ZPMBS2F

disable fastboot, autosync
Had the same problem. No application really helped. Batter stat applications can't really find the culprit. Juice defender didn't eliminate the problem either. My phone has been running two weeks without the problem. This is what I tried.
1. Disable fastboot. I previously had fastboot enabled. Right beside the option, it says if you enable fastboot, some application may not work properly.
2. Disable autosync. For sense weather, use manual sync.
Other than that, don't disable google location services. If I disable google location, my phone got warm every time I went to a different town.
I wonder if its an antenna problem. If you have a bad connection in the antenna it will cause battery drainage.
How is your connection on WiFi?
Well it lookes like it is draining but mostly when your screen is on.
Heat in the back is the typical symptom of high CPU usage.
I too suggest gsam.
It might be a kernel bug where the clocks are stuck at max clocks. Try rebooting a few times and check it with setcpu.
Three weeks after fastboot and autosync disabled, my phone's back got hot again without using anything and screen off. OS monitor showed CPU clock at 384Mhz. A reboot solved the problem. It happened that I used google map and navigation earlier that day. During the past three weeks, I had not used them. The sudden drain of battery happened when I was in a different town I haven't been before.
So, I guess it is kernel bug related with map. Particularly, I suspect it was the auto cache feature that's causing the problem. However, map auto cache cannot be disabled.

I have never used that kernel myself but I would recommend a 4.1 sense rom (ARHD 9 is good and bugless). The use better battery stats to get rid of kernel wake locks and partial wake locks. Find a good screen brightness for yourself and turn off all not needed sounds. Wifi, data, but, gps, Facebook, Gmail, gmaps, and others can be a constant battery drain sometimes. No app is ever perfect (sometimes causes massive battery drain) but finding an alternative that works better is always great. Also let the kernel run for a couple days and it tends to fix most of the battery issues itself.
Any more info could easy be found with a search
I can do about 3-8 hours of on screen time depending on what I do. Like reading black and white text could do me 8 hours while heavy Web searching or calling or gaming could do me 3 hours

Is there a way to turn off Facebook in the background completely? I turned off notifications and location services from within the facebook app..but its always listed in the "Apps currently running" menu.

I find the Facebook app useful so keep with it only way to completely disable it is to uninstall it and use the mobile version of Facebook instead or tinfoil Facebook app on the market which is just like using the mobile version.

Hi Guys,
My hox has dreadful battery life (less than one hour screen on time). Looking at the battery usage, the Android System is using over 50% of the battery, with all that battery usage being used up by the CM3602 light sensor. Is anyone aware if this is a normal battery drain? Or if there is anything I can do to stop the light sensor destroying my battery life?
I'm running Android Revolution HD 31.3 with their kernel.
Cheers,
Tom
Turn off auto brightness and see if that helps...

I've always had auto brightness off :/ I've got no idea what it's doing.
Same here.. Any ideas pls?
I think the light sensor is used by bottom buttons... To automatically turn on every night or low light

That's a good idea, I might try a rom where the backlights can be completely disabled. However my volume button cable is snapped at the moment, so I can't flash a new rom until a new cable arrives.
Hey!
I got the same problem...
Did you solve the problem?
Greetings Alex

Same issue ony ive got a HOX+ the battery lasts no more than 10 hours even if its only sitting on the table.
I suspect its a faulty/broken light sensor.
Its attached to the power button flex so its not a very expensive component..
