For a long time now, I've been experiencing high current draw during screen on. Literally I could stare at the to of my screen and watch a percent drop off every few minutes. During standby my current draw is ~10 mA so I think I can rule out the possibility of wake locks causing this issue. CurrentWidget reports ~500 mA just doing regular activities such as adding events to the calender, using the calculator etc. Using Facebook the current draw reached a peak of 1000 mA!
I have attempted numerous ROMs and kernels with no luck, performed a wipe each time.
Is there any other options other than a full factory reset?
Currently using:
ARHD (latest version)
Franco kernel r12
-lowest screen brightness
-drain seems the same on airplane mode.

Lower your screen brightness.

I would first switch to stock kernel from Franco. Is your ARHD 2.05 based? If so, kernels other than stock may need repacking. If nothing seems to work, a full wipe would be the last resort.

Hi guys! When I got up this morNing my battery was at 100%, after 2 hours of screen off, it was at 55%. Any ideas what the hell is going on? I am using coredroid 1.2, set CPU I'd set to 1194/968, but screen off is set to 245/245. Any ideas? Thanks in advance 7

What's your battery usage overview saying?
Lol, don't even know where to find that on here... I've looked.

It's at settings>about>battery use
Also, I'd suggest uping your screen off profile one notch or you'll risk wake issues. You might also want to lower your minimum from 968, you're basically telling your device to never run slower than 968 and also check that the screen off profile has a higher priority than your main profile.

You probably have a bad app or system process keeping the phone awake.
I'd also recommend dropping your wake min down (even as low as 245). There's no need to force the processor to run at 968 no matter what. For the sleep setting, I'd try popping the max up to 368 (I think thats the next step up?) because you can have wake issues.
Ok thanks guys! I'll give these a try.

Uh oh. My replacement HOX (first one replaced due to WIFI fault) has started to flash when opening or refreshing apps.
So far I have only noticed it when doing the first refresh on the official Twitter app and on opening the xda app!
Is this a software/programming issue or is it another hardware fault?
What are other people's experiences?

I had a similar problem when using the camera app. I was walking down the street and pulled my phone out to snap a picture and as I was getting ready to take a picture I noticed the screen kept flickering. Only happened once thought

That sounds like the screen corruption issue. Was 99% fixed in 1.28 and completely gone in 1.29. What software are you on?
Running 1.29.206.11 and the updater doesn't say there are any updayes available. Since I first posted I have ve only noticed once. So maybe it is a random glitch that I lucky to have noticed
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
you screen is back to flash? I since I have it never happened
I've noticed this as well, in 1.29.401.11. Seems to just be displaying some uninitialized data for a frame until the texture/etc. is fully uploaded... has yet to cause any problems, but it seems to just be annoying?
Hi,
today ive stuffed my desire into my ppcket. It was cool at first but half an hour later it was burning hot! I checked if ive opened gps or something but none. Ive also checked another pocket which contained Galaxy Ace. It was opened too but cold. Ive also got something before: google acct removed from the phone but i didnt touch it, camera went black and rom toolbox's verification failed. Does anyone know what are the possible causes and how to fix? have to take battery off. ManU kernel with Aosp gingerbread
PS ive changed kernel before in the afternoon but it didnt went hot until evening

In your signature is written that you use LeeDroid Sense rom. If it's like that you shouldn't use Manu's kernel cause it's made for AOSP roms, maybe that's the problem.

you could also try an app called watchdoglite
it alerts you when a certain app uses processing power above a certain threshold.
For the last 2 days my HOX refuses to charge beyond 57%, I haven't got anything running in the background which could be sucking up the energy as it tries to charge, does this sound like it could be a fault with the battery?
Have you tried battery calibration tool? or reset battery stats etc

Hi guys,
I've had a less than impressive battery life after I had Cyanagenmod installed on my hox. I know it's the norm for the screen to be the highest consider of the battery. However as you see in the screenshot it's the OS. Is there something I should do?
I can lose half my battery life consumed in an hour of moderate use.
Help would be appreciated, thanks

Well in general aosp Roms use more juice than sense roms.. have you tried those? Before you do that though, have you checked what drains your battery with an app? You can also use greenify to hibernate apps running in the background
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Thanks for your reply. I'll try greenify, what app do you recommend to check which apps use more juice?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Well I'm not sure if I can give any recommendation, but I use Gsam battery monitor (Something along those lines..)
There are alot of apps on the play store that do the same so just get one that suits your needs
I would advise against any app that says to improve battery life.
They scan for apps then shut them down, if that process didn't finished their task the os starts them up again only to be closed.
They do more harm than good.
I would suggest using a custom kernel and underclock/undervolt.
Lower screen auto brightness amounts.

Yes undervolting is also a good idea
