Hey guys,
Some of you might have seen my thread that with 1.28 my battery was worse. The advice it would get better after few charges. Now a few charges later my battery is even more worse.. I'm getting like a max of 2 hours screen time which was previously about 3.5 hours with same usage.
My screen is on 30% hardly use 3g no games and just a bit of browsing or Facebook. That's all.
Come on.. Two hours really sucks.

You can by downloading a costum rom which is based on 1.26. But without rooting I don't think it's possible to do that.
Just a tip : try a factory reset and a hard-reset! That might fix it.

you probably have some apps doing something in the background constantly or something is broken. it can't be normal.
and first thing i noticed was the speed of my device, it seems a lot snappier. homescreen, app drawer and everything, its still on 1.29.401.11 but is quicker, may need to use it more before i can make futher comments. but so far it seems if htc may know how to prevent lag on the one x

Did they replace the motherboard? There can be variances between processors and perhaps the old one was under spec. Some people have posted Quadrant and AnTuTu scores here that have been well below the average. You're using the same h/w and s/w as the rest of us so your results should be similar too. My phone feels 10x "snappier" after I hard reset it but that goes away quickly after I load my 93 apps back on and set up a dozen different syncs.
or simlpy because its still formatted new and you didnt fill it with your stuff yet

Everything here is superb after changing mainboard. Faster and battery is lasting twice as long. Must have been something bry wrong with mine.
Yeah I had one with yellow dots and did an exchange and mine is noticeably quicker and has less heating.

Your phone is almost certainly faulty. With screen at 100% brightness, idle and in flight mode, you should get around 6 hours.

Some questions for wildlaurel first...
- Are you running a stock ROM?
- What apps do you have loaded? Battery monitors, task killers, CPU analyzers?
- What apps in "Settings>Power>Battery use" show to be draining your battery so quickly?
- If you do a hard reset, do you get the same results before you load your apps and personalized settings?
Everything that happens isn't a h/w fault or defect guys. Batteries get drained by rogue apps all the time.
I really like 95% of this phone but I can't get one with no major issues. These are the things that are making me considering switching to an S3
- battery life still isn't great on the latest update. S3 should be much better
- inconsistent wifi - I don't have the hardware problem on this one (previous ones have) but staying in the same spot, I still a signal which fluctuates alot, where other devices recieve a consistent strong signal
- Chrome browser - really like this most of the time but I frequently just get a blank white screen and no amount of reloading works - it affects any website and all open tabs.
- overheating..especially when on charge (playing games) it flashes red/green or even just browsing (on low brightness) it gets very warm to touch (high 40's degrees C shown on Batter Monitor Widget)
I'm on stock BTW and am not a root-er so I'm not considering other ROMs. Had an S2 previously, liked it but not too keen the gingerbread look which the S3 seems to have stuck with on their ICS touchwizz) Any advice appreciated.
The S3s wifi is awful I have both. The S3 also gets very warm when playing games and charging. The issue with chrome is the app not the phone. Mine does it on the s3. The battery life would be better of you had more than one battery. As far as a single charge goes they are about the same.

Fair enough on the Chrome thing. I thought the s3 battery is meant to be a fair bit longer lasting (it's more powerful for starters). Guess these phones will run hot, just didn't expect it to stop charging as it's overheating when just browsing etc.
Which of the two handsets do you prefer?

Have both s3 and hox. I use the hox over s3. The pros far outweigh the cons. Especially if you dont intend to root and use custom roms. Stock cheezwiz on sgs3 is just pathetic. Sense is miles ahead and with the latest update it rocks. Stay with the hox.

I have the htx one x my colleague has the s3 we don't notice any significant difference in the battery life. The HTC does not last playing sonic for the tigra. Also if wifi is intermittent the battery drains fast.
I get a day easily under normal use though.

I think the One X is better with the new base(2.17), and with Jelly Bean it's gonna be awesome, so don't get an S3!
I'm on my 3rd hox now, WiFi is really bad have to be in the same room as router, not acceptable if you ask me.
Yes this is a great phone but I can't keep hanging around for getting a phone works as it should.

Because he has an HOX so of course he's entitled to be here. And enough with defending HTC and bashing the disgruntled customers. They're entitled to voice their dissatisfaction. Just because you dont have to change many times to get a defect free handset doesnt mean you can rely on that to claim that HTC has done a good job w the manufacturing process. You're HTC's customers, not their employees. NO need to get worked up when somebody complains about a real issue.

Withe the last 2.17 released no WiFi issue at all if you already on this release and still have this problem you should check your router.
In other hand don't believe that the S3 is better than the one X , the first thing you gonna miss is the one X brilliant display.

Make sure it's not a WiFi antenna disconnection, make sure that your router is not on a channel where there's loads of interference, make sure that your phone is on 2.17.

1. S3 isn't, AMOLED EATS battery compared to S-LCD2. Unless you get another battery, in which case you'll blow the One X away.
2. Make sure there isn't any interference on your router, and make sure that the fluctuations are not affecting actual use of WiFi.
3. Chrome does this for everything.
4. Overheating will happen if you charge while playing games. Don't do it on these phones unless you really want to destroy it early from overheating. If you're going to charge it, leave it alone and stick with light use. Undervolting can also help with these issues, but if you go too far you will cause the phone to randomly go into bootloops that require a power button hold down to fix, or having the phone fall into a sleep of death.
WiFi signal fluctuations may also just be the phone's signal indicator actually being more representative of true signal. The only way to really know is to look at something like WiFi Analyzer and compare the dBm.
It's the same problem I've had with all three phones, when I squeeze the top right of the phone the reception goes full, but the first few weeks of using the phone the WiFi is perfect.
I'm pretty gutted that I'm movin on because I really like this phone, I'm not the biggest fan of Samsung but its the only other equivalent at the moment, I've had the hox from day 1 and its been great while the WiFi works, that's the only reason I'm changing, other wise I'd be HTC all the way

This doesn't really make sense?
Are you asking a question?
Or telling us something?
For the battery, not much you can do could try getting an App such as Juice defender but alot of the time they chew more battery than they save.
For your router, buy a new one?
For a quicker browser experience I would try Opera
Hope I helped.
Congratulation, although I don't consider Nokia as a bad brand and actually I fell Nokia is more like a RIM and focused towards business users.
About your wifi, if the signal is consistent than perhaps like you said, it's your router fault.
Also, check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1579392 (You better start from last pages).
Also, you need to be aware roots app won't work without it. For the core controlling wait Jelly beans it seems HTC had a similar app already bundled with it.
Good Luck

Hayırlı olsun.
For the battery, there are some simple thing you can do; but first you have to clarify what you mean by "what to do with the battery"?
Do you wanna treat it well to have a long lasting battery over months/years, or do you want to use it economically so that you can have a longer battery life for every re-charge.
The first one is easy. Never let it shut down due to no power, always re-charge before %10; and charge it more frequently during the day, not draining it all and recharging back to %100.
The second one is tweaky and after years, I've lost my faith since the time wasted to learn and use that battery saving stuff and also the brain damage, is not worth it. totally my own opinion.
Just try to use Wi-Fi is you're at home or at work for long periods, swtich to 2G during those times, lower the screen brightness as much as you can and shut down vibration where possible.
One thing though, as the word spread about HTC OneX+ arriving, most of the sellers have reduced the price for One X, around 1600TL (which is roughly $880). Did you but it from 2000 TL recently? If yes, that should better be bought on an agreement with Turkcell, if not then you paid a little more =)
Agree with all the battery advice above. This is good information.
Would also add to steer clear of task killers/ managers. Your phone will manage apps itself (though I know a lot of people think it is a bit aggressive on the one x). If you are constantly going in to shut down apps, your battery life will actually take a hit. Just leave it to settle down and do its thing.

Armenian here Speak turkish fluently, Parents from istambul also.
I have two HOX's both international, One is in repair, my backup though is wonderful when it comes to battery life, I also agree those battery savers, and task managers really dont do anything in my opinion, its more trouble then its worth. My HOX thats in repair didnt do very well with battery, its rooted and all, but battery really sucked, but when I get it back I'm going to do a bit of digging. My backup is amazing, currently 14 hours and still have 63% battery life, and I have really done nothing with the brightness or anything like that. The battery will really depend on your usage. If your going to play alot of games expect the battery to drain rather quickly especially with 4 cores. I dont play many games really, and heavily mainly talk, text, and play games maybe 3 or 4 times a month. From what I've seen, the battery doesnt take too much of a hit until you go past roughly 15 mins of playing an intense game, at which point the cores start to heat up and the constant screen being on which drains the battery quicker.
Also I would suggest dont use too many apps that sync in the background, thats another battery killer. And as great as live wallpaper might be, thats another one that drains it. If you use data as someone said try not to and use the wifi, I dont use data ever and have shut it down and just use wifi.
But based on my two Hox's I have to say I think build quality of the phone has a big part to play in the battery life, but I am going to do more testing on this once I get back my other phone from repair.

You remind me the good old time with my Nokia phones (big like a brick) that could last 1 week with one single charge :angel:
Killing apps to "free RAM" (why do you need it free?!?) and preserving battery are two mutually exclusive things. My advice is to stay away from any automated task managers and accept the fact that the only way to preserve battery is to use your phone less.
BTW you could've come to Bulgaria to buy the phone - it would've cost you much less

All I use is the internet and calls and texts, and if it can't even handle those , then how am I going to be able to use the internet ..

are u using a custom rom ...? if not then say which base it is...3.14 oder 2.17 ...
You might try searching the forum, there are LOTs of battery related threads.
Install BetterBatteryStats (search here for it and how to use it), and check wakelocks and partial wakelocks, should tell you what is preventing the phone from entering deep sleep.
i like the battery life of my phone very much but also think, when you are using a custom rom, the rom and the kernel need to settle and i think, this take a time.. try one and give it 1-2 days, until you see the real battery draining
Came from Xperia arc myself, but wasn't expecting tremendous battery life, tbh. That said, there's virtually no drain in screen off on any stock based rom, so it evens out. Haven't tried aokp, cm10 or miui due to the pretty horrific battery life on the arc with them.

mine hox have nearly 1 year, but no better or worse battery performance. max 1 day :crying:
the battery life of the htc one x is an enigma to me (no other word can do justice to how much confusion it's causing)....I understand everyone uses their phone differently but the battery life shouldn't be all over the place as it is. My battery is lasting between 24 and 48 hours regularly with normal use i.e. normal everyday use on my one x, calls texts, camera, finding a place on maps while lost etc etc
screenshots attached.
I understand a lot of the problems are being caused by the phone not going into deep sleep. One of the ones I pinned it down to was if you go into Maps and check the location settings through there...i've turned them all off (and i still get correct google now information).
If someone wants to try that and then let us know what its like then that'd help everyone.

My battery is lasting between 24 and 48 hours regularly with normal use i.e. normal everyday use on my one x, calls texts, camera, finding a place on maps while lost etc etc
screenshots attached.
I understand a lot of the problems are being caused by the phone not going into deep sleep. One of the ones I pinned it down to was if you go into Maps and check the location settings through there...i've turned them all off (and i still get correct google now information).
If someone wants to try that and then let us know what its like then that'd help everyone.

well not quite sure what you're doing with your phone - in that image, your mobile signal is only on for about half of the total time? did you have it in airplane mode or something?
my battery is pretty terrible - actually shocking the past few days. I can't even get through a full work day without it being down to <30%, which is only 9 hours or so. I've had power saver turned on all the time, too. I use it a bit for texts during the day and that's about it - no heavy data use. so I have no idea what's sapping it so heavily. it's quite bizarre. even if I try to micro-manage my data by turning it on only when I need it, I still get down to 40%.
this is on a stock ROM by the way. considering changing to a lighter weight custom ROM to see if that helps, as this is just ridiculous!

im getting same type of drain also. i made a thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2090024&highlight=+q+battery+life
idk if this is normal or not cause its new. also im coming from 2 hr battery drain on g2x so idk what is normal nowadays
-----------
actuallyi just glanced at ur screen shot and for u it might be the mobile radio. It seems like ur signal is spotty for most of the time. this drains battery like no other when trying to find a good signal this goes with wifi too
HOX's battery live was terrible at first. (ICS & Old kernel)
Now it seems that it has reached its max capability. It saves the day, but it would be great, if the battery had been 2100 mah. :angel:

How much was your screen on time tho? I could just leave my phone doing nothing and have over 1day battery.
@op you could try the battery calibration. Charge phone till green light, once fully charged unplug and switch off the phone and charge again till green light now switch on and use phone.
You should now have better battery.

Calibration doesn't do nothing and certainly not gonna give you better battery life.
