Hi Guys! I have some battery issues with my HOX (CM10 Nightly): 1) battery drain is just like crazy, few hours and dead; 2) battery icon shows wrong battery level (one minute is 20% and next minute is 14%, I tried to calibrate it - didn't work), plus today I was playing a game on a low battery level and when I reached 0% the phone switched itself off, the very next minute I switch it back on it shows 10% batttery level and I continue to play the game. It all seems very strange for me, so if you have any ideas, please reply. Thanx
Charge to full, then go into recovery and wipe battery stats as a beginner option, after install BetterBatteryStats and monitor to see if any apps are draining your battery.

Hi I have: HTC Wildfire with CyanogenMod 7.2.0-RC1
In about the past 2 days my battery life has dropped considerably with the phone not lasting more then 12 hours, as opposed to the previous life of 2-3 days.
I charged it too 100% last night and this morning when I checked it it was at 20%
I have not installed any new apps, my screen usually runs on low brightness and the data connection only running on 2g/Edge and I have changed no settings lately.
I tried a battery stats wipe, no change.
I remember having that problem just after I flashed a new recovery.
It was about 80% before I sleep And when I wake up I find it 55%
I installed Sympfinity kernel and it really improved battery life.
now only 10% (sometimes less) are lost through the night.
Try Sympfinity kernel.

I Flashed CM7.2 RC2 it seems to have fixed the problem.

I advise you to install battery calibration from play store, sometimes after flashing a new rom, battery may be miss-read
tip
the battery life is also affected depending on the time you have automatic update on your phone because if you have updated very often it spends considerably battery not in use so the phone .. hechale a look at this and help us a lot of your battery greetings
Welll i used to have a similar problem on my wildfire,so i downloaded power max and used it on standard mode and used Go power master with autoswtching and other stuff...just before exchanging it for a Nexus, i had the battery to last around 40 hours with 5 hours of browsing, 3 hours of listening to music and 2 hours of gaming with heavy use of whatsapp and texting and 30-40 minutes of calling...previously my battery use to last only 10 hours...hope this will help you...you can also go up to ebay and buy an extended battery for just Rs.960 which is 3000mah...cheaper than the original smaller battery....link to the extended battery http://www.ebay.in/itm/3000MAh-Exte...4-HTC-Wildfire-G8-/140533335447#ht_1453wt_907
Hello,
I've read the threads about battery in the desire, BATT FIX with new kernels etc but can't really find a definite answer for my problem.
I bought my phone 18 months old and from the beginning it has shut down at about 20%. Tried the battery thing with charging, on/off, charing again etc, wiping battery stats etc but it doesn't seem to matter. So, I thought I'd just buy a new battery and be done with it.
The new battery arrived yesterday (actually, it's a used battery from customer returns but seller tells me it's been tested to be in mint condition). So this battery shows 3% when I first start up with it, "good, this seems to work" I think. But when at 75% the charger indicator (LED light) all of a sudden turns green and battery % jumps straight to 100%. I do the battery calibration trick with on/off charge and wipe battery stats. Stuck at 100% for some time as reported by others trying this "trick", have been using it all day and it shuts down at 25% even worse than the other battery...
The best voltages I've seen on this supposedly new battery is 4,144 and somewhere above 3.5 (nowhere near 3.2 and 4.2). What strikes me as odd is that I get very close to the same values with my old battery so I'm starting to think that maybee both battery are good but the phone reports way wrong values...is this possible?
Battery life with phone and data connection on, 1 gmail account but disabled backup feature (no GPS, BT etc) gives me -5% after 10 hours standby and I can use the phone for browising, light gaming for about 3 hours and 40 minutes before it dies (more or less constant usage at very low autobrightness levels and Turbo 3G enabled).
If someone has some insight into this it would be really helpful before I contact the eBay seller for this particular battery.
Regards, Olle
Same thing
My phone shuts down at 35% now... Is that a problem with the chipset or what? Only with Alex-V's calibrated kernels my phone shuts down at 0%, and sometimes it decalibrates too, but after calibration is Okay. I wonder if i need a new battery or my chipset has issues.
I bought G Pro day before yesterday. The device is amazing and i love it but i have got a small problem. First day i charged battery to 100% and i got a day usage with 25% of brightness set with screen on time for about a little less than 4 hours which is amazing. Yesterday i had to charge phone twice because the battery depleted within 2 hours on screen time and moderate usage like calls n text (no gaming). Today morning 80% power was left of second charge. I went to college and and did not use the phone much but battery got completely depleted within 1 hour of screen on time at 50% brightness. When i came home back i charged the phone to 100%, when i disconnected charger from phone the charge dropped immediately to 98%. After 3 mins it fell to 93% and now is depleting fast. there is no apps running in background or anything and no apps showing up in battery stats that may be depleting battery. Any solutions to this? can it be faulty battery? Plz Help!!!
Edited: viber or whatsapp was causing this battery drain. I rooted my phone n installed greenify. Hibernating all user apps fixed the battery drain. If anyone has battery drain issue may try this solution.
Hi, I have bought a G Pad for my mother-in-law, and recently she started complaining on the battery life. Indeed I have noticed, that after fully charging and leaving the device idle it looses 40% of the battery over 12 hours. I have made a factory reset, but the battery has drained 12% in 12 hours with everything off and a few minutues of screen on time (only used to for the initial set up after the reset). Also I have the feeling that the drain increases with every hour.
Battery stats say that Android OS is the most heavy drainer. Do you have any suggestion how to fix this (besides trying a different ROM - i don't want to do this at the moment).
Thank you

Try to use wakelock detector and greenify to check and stop the process that could be causing this battery drain.

Do you have an SD card in it? Try taking it out and see if the battery drain goes away. A bad SD card will cause android to keep scanning the card...

Hi everyone, I am running HTC 10 marshmallow stock rom (My country doesnt have nougat update yet) and I faced some problem with the battery recently. I went to travel in iceland for about 2 days, and after i came back I realised a rapid drain in the battery power even during idle.
Below are a few tests that I carried out,
1. I charged my phone to full and carried out the default battery test by typing *#*#3424#*#*. The results was 6% of battery drain with screen on for 1 hour at maximum brightness in airplane mode. From the htc 10 customer service team, they said this shows that the battery wasnt faulty ( The battery is faulty if battery % drop below 70% in an hour).
2. Then i switch to safe mode to check if it was the background apps that causes the problem, even worst, the battery over night in extreme power saving mode was dropped by about 40%. I factory reset the phone.
3. The next day I do the same thing as (2), but this time with airplane mode, the battery drained over night still about 40%.
The battery usage from GSAM apps shows nothing unusual going on in the background at night.
I have to charge my phone at least twice, once before i sleep and once after i woke up, i sleep average of 7 hours a day.
My question is, since its not battery issue, after i factory reset the phone this problem shouldnt persist, can somebody explain to me before i decide whether to send in for repair? Sorry if the thread was repeated.
Attachments below shows the batter drained
This is the battery reduction graph during safe mode tests
There must be a rouge app running somewhere.
Your phone doesn't seem to be "sleeping" at all.
It's whatever is causing the extremely high (100%) awake time, that is causing your battery to drain so quick.
Would be helpful if you could send a screenshot of the main stats page on gsam. Example below: (from my M9)
