I'm posting this because all the rom and kernel combinations out there are just lethal for my search ego.This is to tell u guys how i get my one x to move up a day and counting without telling me low battery and with somehow constant use.I'm using the viper x rom(other great roms but this is my personal best)and the faux kernel.(0verclocking latest faux kernel). Thats all.Also u'll like to disable battery percentage as it gets ur mentality off ur use and more on looking at it.
-My trick is i just plugged my phone to the charger at 7pm(low battery).Took it off at 10pm(even though it was full before then).Slept at 12.Woke up the next day till evening it lasted and then one day after in the morning 8am i got 50%.(not really heavy use,light gaming,browsing,opening apps.....).Very impressive.I could use it the whole day again and it will die at night around 7 for cycle to continue.
-This keeps u from overnight charge to 2 days charge and its pretty awesome.
Again u cant use ur one x as a ps3(vita) or gaming console or even an ipad browsing experience and expect it to last u.Sure u can browse but......u know the risk on battery or else get locked bootloader motorollas .
NB:When battery percentage is on u are off focus always thinking of the battery.Just leave a bare battery bar.
Thank if i helped and peace.Hope it works for u.
or flash CM10 which has good overall battery life.

Can you post some screen shots with screen on time and battery usage please?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
pretty simple what you guys need to do to get a good battery life.
1. make sure you remove auto brightness and set the brightness of the display to manual. so set your own brightness of the display.
2. only sync stuff that are important like emails or whatsapp.
3. if you do not use maps uninstall them as those can be battery drainers.
4. use the latest NCX kernel and use system tuner...use ondemand governor and sio/noop schedulers and keep the clock speeds at 1.2ghz and undervolt by 50 steps...
follow those steps and you should see an increase on your battery...i am using ICJ rom so if you want to go down that route your battery will increase... i always average 3hrs screen on time and battery lasts me a whole day
I know a not of people hate this feature, but I get amazing battery life with the new Power Saver feautere in JB, only disabling it when I'm gaming. The phone runs buttery smooth only having trouble when facing heavy multitasking in which cases I also disable the Power Saver.

Wow, some white-spaces and extra new lines wouldn't kill you, but would read much better.
But let's get to the point: What about your Wifi, 3G, GPS and Bluetooth usage??? And where's the screenshot of the usage when you click on the graph, the details screen?
when i want to use System Tuner or Android Tuner with the Faux or NCX Kernel the Phone is really unstable, setting the Max CPU Freq dont have an effect and the unervolting to -25 mv let´s freeze my Phone. Why ever :crying:
I use power saver mode on, lower auto brightness mod on latest ordroid and setcpu with a few profiles and I get around 24 hours with heavy use.
Not sure if setcpu has any effect??
I set the max freq to 1ghz unless I am playing a game.
Also set max freq to 640 when screen is off.
Does setcpu work under JB Roms??

Download CpuSpy and check the frequency's your phone is running at. If it shows over 1ghz then Setcpu hasn't worked

Hi guys!
This One X is very performing smartphone, games are really pretty... But I can stand that battery problem! I've tried so many rom, using setcpu for ondemand governor of the Tegra3... But I still not have so many battery life!
Can you guys suggest how rom, kernel or something else can save my battery?
Generic suggestions about this problem... Now I'm using Jdroid exodized 3.0.3 with bricked kernel v0.2, but battery is so draining... 63 % of battery with 1.37 hours of screen.. 4 h 22 min on it! =(
Hi!
I see a lot of people complaining about battery life, but if you take a look around you'll find the thread where people posted their battery usage. Me - I'm using rooted OneX running the stock ROM and am more than satisfied as far as battery life goes. I do 15 hours with ease. If I try to save it it usually lasts for more than 24 hours. Maybe you could try stock rom + root ... maybe a little underclock? I've been hearing underclock is quite the juice saver.
Hi,
I am the same I have tried custom Rom's but they claim to improve battery life but they just move the tegra 3 powersaving driver into the correct place!
I have a unlocked O2 HTC One X with O2 Rom and flashed battery fix and rooted the device!
Using this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1597227
I have managed to setup a shortcut using widgets on the screen to select how many cores I want to use. I find that using one core clocked at 1.5GHz is fast enough and I don't have much lag! This has helped my battery massively! This is because O2 still haven't pushed through the HTC updates yet!
And also using this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1630200
I flashed this using CMW and this has also helped.
I also find disabling some stock apps using App Managment in Settings, also using CPU spy from the Play Store and Battery Usage in settings. I can find the apps that use the most CPU power then uninstall or limit their usage (maybe using the internet instead of a dedicated app) this then has the phone stay in Deep Sleep for longer. I can easily get through 24hrs without having to try to save battery at all! I sometimes have almost got two days without charging!
Another tip is in the Usage app you can Restrict Background data over the network although when you connect to your WiFi it enables it again. Although it is meant to help save your Data it can also help your Battery Life.
Hope this helps!
Steven
Thanks for the answer!
I noticed that, in this Rom that I'm trying, I've the Screen that consume a lot of battery, even in the lowest brightness mode. Not using WiFi, 3g data, autosync, nothing, only a lot of text message received and sent. I think that this S-LCD2 consume a lot of battery or maybe the software of HTC, this time, is a loot poor of balance with this expensive hardware.
Do you think I can improve battery life with the tips that you said? I'm using this ROM right now http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1597778.
Setting CPU to ondemand governor 304 mhz min and 1.5 ghz doesn't help me? I must disable some cores? I can give it a try, hope that this tips can be made in this AOSP Senseless Rom.

I'm asking myself [ and you ] if this screen consume really a lot amount of battery... Or there is some problem with my one x... Reaching the 3+ hours screen on is a good result, but in a 15 h battery day life, I hope... Maybe I can reach disabling a couple of processors
Don't worry about the screen, it will always take a lot of power whatever you do! It isn't worth messing with it.
You don't need to mess with the CPU although personally it does make a diffrence to the battery, I don't notice it too unless I am gaming!
Maybe an app is preventing your phone from going to deep sleep whilst the screen is off
Try using this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bvalosek.cpuspy&hl=en
If it says that your phone hasn't been in deep sleep, We need to try and find the culprit. Once you have done this maybe post back and I might be able to help you sort this out! It took me a while as I had this problem but it was definatly worth the effort!
Try looking in battery in the settings and see if there are any apps that are using a lot of power (maybe take a screen shot) and also try in Data Usage, there maybe apps using the Internet whilst you aren't using the phone. This also wastes the battery. If you restrict background usage (only on certain apps) it will only use the Internet in the background whilst you are connected to wifi only. Facebook is a good example!
Hope this helps
Steven
If you don't understand anything please say, I know my explanations are awful but I will try my best! I think I have changed everything here to fit your rom!
The rom itself although you or the developer know this but the overall system could be causing a problem! (just a theory!)

You're too fine with me steven, thanks!
I've downloaded Cpu Spy and it says that my one x has been in deep sleep for 70 % of time, so there is no problem with some apps doing something during screen off. My problem is that when I'm using all 4 cores, without internet via wifi or 3g, without autosync, nothing at all, and screen at lowest brightness, there is still a drastic battery drain while I'm using only Message app a lot. I don't wanna think that my HOX have a fault battery, but how can I test and prove it ? I don't know if there is a program, app or test for doing this thing.
Now I'm with that ROM Senseless AOSP ICS, I will try next charge with two cores actives only and view how much I can stay with that SetCpu settings. I'm using this settings: 101% Battery <, CPU Max 1Ghz to 51Mhz and priority 100, governor ondemand ; screen off, CPU Max 1Ghz to 200 mhz and priority 100, governor ondemand. I'll give you the result soon.
you need to give it time to settle the battery mate. i manage to go a day or two and have like 3 hours screen on time and that is with everything on. if you need any help send me a PM mate and i see what i can do to help you. and i would not use SetCpu for now i am using No-Frills. And switch from ondemand to Interactive. and that is with 1.5Ghz as max and 100mhz mininum

I agree that you should not use set CPU although you are best using ondemand as that is only using the amount of power you need, interactive keeps the speed high to increase the overall speed. (not good for battery life) also maybe, my mothers Samsung Galaxy S2 had battery problems and she got 6hrs of battery out of her phone at max, she always carried her charger around.
I calibrated the battery without using any software, I just fully charged the device and left video/audio/maps on to get rid of the battery as fast as I could and then fully charged the device. All I am trying to say is give this a shot (I did this when I first got my phone) she now gets on average 2days battery life! I know that it can take ages but it is defiantly worth the effort!
Hope this helps
Steven
Also, how do you find that ROM it looks great. I think I might try it!

just do some comparison,differ country 3G line will affect the BL too, just want know which one better.i didnt complaint my battery is bad. when u see a lot of forum member post about this , that means the battery life is one of concern of people.
so i started a thread to gather all the info from member , maybe we find someway to work out for longer the bl of our devices
It looks like you dont know anything about how 3G works and why it may affect BL. Its all about range, protocol switching, and BTS placement.
Keep in mind, this is SMARTPHONE with QUAD+1 CORES and HD display. The good battery life score with average usage is 1 DAY. with heavy usage is couple of H. If you want it to work a week without charge, get nokia E51.
Poeple need to understand that there is no such topic as bad battery life in such monsutros smartphone. Live with it or leave it.

Yeah after a few days struggling with a battery draining issue I managed to solve it and now my HOX has an amazing battery life Even though it is still facing some battery draining with the camera (Not to mention the scratched camera lens). It lasts 2-3 days with normal gaming. 5-6 days of normal usage (without gaming)

Well I updated the software build to the latest. Than I do a factory reset. After that, I use my phone normally until it shows me the warning of "the battery is lowerthab 10%", I turn off my phone completely then charge it for 8 -> 12 hours then turn it on and use it normally again. Repeat those steps 3-4 times and your HOX's battery life should be fine

I am here to share my experience to get 18 (around 5-8 hours screen time depend on your usage) hours normal usage, browsing chatting, facebook and calls.
2 days if you are not touching your phone at all, standby.
follow my guide, I think it's all about the Kernel but I shared the rom I used too just in case.
this guide is for GSM, might work on others just download the proper rom and kernel.
Optional, you can underclock to 1ghz but I didn't and got 18 means more if you underclock it.

I am here to share my experience to get 18 hours normal usage, browsing chatting, facebook and calls.
2 days if you are not touching your phone at all, standby.
follow my guide, I think it's all about the Kernel but I shared the rom I used too just in case.
this guide is for GSM, might work on others just download the proper rom and kernel.
Optional, you can undervolt to 1ghz but I didn't and got 18 means more if you undervolt.

point 1: when you go to 1GHz , it's called underclocking. undervolting is when you lower the voltage for the corresponding processor frequencies.
point 2: 18h , but what about screen ON ? how much is the "normal usage" equivalent to, in terms of screen ON and the stuff that you're running on your phone.
it's nice to see you trying to contribute and thumbs up for the effort, and i really don't want to sound like an a-hole, but this is not a guide. flashing a custom rom + kernel, and letting the battery go through a few cycles cannot be considered as a guide with battery saving tips. Cheers mate.

which trinity kernel and androidme rom version have you been using?
Tnp1536-307-jb-stable35
tnp1420-307-jb-stable35
tnp1344-307-jb-stable35. Do you think this one would be a good choice to save battery?
Thanks.

You are right, but I learned now ^^
well around 8 hours normal usage of screen time (screen awake), and when I am on a phone call and the screen is off it toke 1% every 10mins
pardon my English
delete this reply cuz I don't find how.
Yah I hate to be that guy but where's the guide? Everyone uses their phone different. You should at least show your battery usage screen shot so we can see screen time etc.
What? Are you telling me that you get 8hrs of screen on time? Is this trolling or just a language barrier?

sorry, I wiped stats but you can study this.
just look at my charge time compared to the times I am using phone, and because it last longer I don't care when its red and low, I was in 5% from 9pm to 11pm chatting from time to time and facebook, and btw my wifi is always on.
and pardon me I am new Xd I am just sharing something not an expert or something but next time I will make sure : it's called underclocking <- I though both are same, and post screenshot and screen on time
EDIT: I think I should charge it to 100% and make it drain then share pics with you guys, that's the proper way for screenshot right Xd? cuz mine looks like a mess XD

Nice XD but I love messing around my phone stock is just... normal XD
Your phone was plugged in multiple times throughout your screenshots. So yes, you should redo screen shots from 100% and include display on time.
It doesn't really matter though, as no one will see your same results unless they use their phone the exact same way.
And under clocking is unnecessary on the nexus, it doesn't spend hardly any time at 1200mhz anyway. I use mine for a lot of game play and still don't spend much time over 691mhz (Trinity kernel). So if my phone decides it does need to ramp up to 1190mhz to remain buttery smooth I'm not going to interfere.

Nice. Will check this out.. I run my phone down pretty quick these days heh
I'm not understanding why you prefer 1.5 trinity kernel and 307 gpu. What benefit are you seeing versus the other trinity kernels with higher gpu and lower overclock limits? Are you running your phone at 1.5?

Same here. I have no problem getting 18 hours out of my stock battery using the stock ROM and kernel, including just shy of 6 hours of screen on time.
I dont know that I would call this a guide. Its saying to use a certain rom and kernel and to charge the phone. . . . .
hey thanks for the write up... i used it alone to change the colors! now my screen isn't yellow.
question though... when I adjust my colors manually, when I go to 0 percent brightness, everything goes like super green... like crazy looking lol.. but at 3 percent it's fine again... any idea why this happens and how I can fix it to get true 0 percent? thanks!

I'm using a stock one and all I can say is: Just dont use Nexus as a videogame.
I got 3 days and some hours of battery talking some minutes and using wifi for some time (probably 4 hours overall).
Playing sucks up the battery life. At least for me.
A normal day of use, with wifi active, many calls, auto bright and SetCPU profiles gives me 'bout 18-24 hours of use.
A intense play day gives me 8 hours. And I think its generous.

NEW CONFIGURATION
OF STOCK JB KERNEL
Hi guyz, since i don't like the default parameters of stock JB kernel,
i'm trying to use my own one witch i could have little less power usage
with hight tasks like web browsing or gaming.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
HOW IT WORKS?
Simply, it decrease the cpu ramping up to maxfreq to preserve
a lower voltages of the SoC, it means, less power usage.
In fact, MilliAmpere used are less.
HOW TO FLASH?
REALLY?!? :silly:
Flash it as a normal ROM.
####################
You could have issues
Enjoy and, if you like, rate 5 stars
and sure, FEEDBACKS me!!
It's an order!
It should works with all SENSE JB roms.
P.S. 5 mins of usage isn't a test,
2 days from a complete charge to a complete
discharge are that, and sure, WITH THE SAME USAGE!!

FAQ
- What about this MOD?
It's a script witch changes Ondemand's parameters
- Could damage my phone?
ABSOLUTELY NO! why? because it's only a script witch write some numbers, after a reboot, numbers comes to stock setting if MOD will be removed
- Is it invasive for my rom?
ABSOLUTELY NO! it doesen't change anything in system files, only write some numbers in governor's parameters, those returns at stock value after 1 reboot (if you delete the mod)
- Should i have little lags?
Yes, you could, because this setting decrease the ramp up of the cpu, it means, less frequency = less power usage.. but.. means less performance too!
- Is it a mod for hardcore gaming?
No, i create that only for normal dalily use + web browsing, you should have little lags!
- I have some issues after installing this mod, what about it?
Since this only changes some values, the ONLY thing you could have is a lagghing phone, other issues are rom fault (or maybe your fauilt)
- I have choppy youtube videos, what could i do?
Nothing, don't know why but, probably, youtube needs 1.5ghz of core, and, this mod decrease the ammount of time spent at that frequency. It's an nvidia hotplug error, it should turn on 4 core at low freq, but, it doesn't do, so, for now, don't know what we could do to fix it! Need the source code of kernel!
- I don't like your mod, how to remove?
Flash the remove zip file and fuk off! (ahahahahaha )
WOULD YOU LIKE TO ADD MY MOD IN YOUR OWN ROM?
For me, it's ok, but, my opinion, some users has issues with gaming and youtube playback, so, if you FORCE ths mod to him, you could lose credibility!
This mod decrease the benchamrks results too! So, my advice is to ADD THIS THREAD LINK IN YOUR ROM'S THREAD WITCH YOU ADVICE TO TRY MY MOD!

Simply change and force some parameters setting of the ondemand governor
I did it to preserve the ramp up of the cpu to maxfreq, it means less power usage

You'll see the difference in a completely day, if you already uses the phone, you don't have a completely charge, and the % of battery is calculated and not real. What i would say?
Simply, decrease from 100 to 90 isn't the same as 20 to 10%!
You'll see in a completely day with a completely charge

this function has a similar effect, the different is i'm using another parameter
the difference is, with my mod, the most hight freq witch is used is 1.2, but 1.4 and 1.5 will used too, if those are real necessary
with normal battery saver force to max 1.3ghz
is quite different
Ok, now understand...thanks for answer

How about smoothness?
P.s. if you like it could you hit 5 stars?

Hi I've just recently decided to swap my xperia ray for a second hand HTC one x and unfortunately the battery life is horrid, under 4 hours and the battery is below half. 3g is on 24/7 and I didn't browse the internet for even a second , only text and call and I can't believe it, seriously considering taking this back unless somebody can convince me otherwise. 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.

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!

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.
