Okay, is it possible my battery for my One V is already going bad only 5 months into owning it? Over the past 2-3 weeks my battery has NEVER reached a full 100% charge unless I reboot it, otherwise it get's stuck at a certain percentage until a reboot. Then about 2 days ago I started to notice severe battery drain with incorrect percentage reading, my phone would literally lose like 5% every 30 minutes. And it would drain to 0 really fast but when I reboot it owuld only be a like 50%, then it would drain real fast again, i'd reboot and it may be at 40%, and this is continuing to happen.
So is my battery just going bad?
If u are rooted,wipe battery stats in recovery..... It might help.... And also, if rooted, which rom are u using.....????+ check your overclock....
I have tried battery wiping, it hasn't helped, I am using Code Fire X and I am OC'ed but i run it on SavageZen so it's almost always underclocked.
PrimoC????
Ask the rom developer about it then.... He might be able to help u bettet...

first wipe your battery stats from recovery and wipe dalvik cache then install battery calibration and charge the battery up to 100% then let it go until it become show zero % remaining then charge your battery and check the performance
You must be joking. The issue is with misplacement of battery. Remove the battery somehow and wipe the contacts and replace it

Remove battery???? i guess We can't!!!! Its inbuilt....:what::what:
Simon has said that he's still working on getting the battery kernel modules working correctly on the CFX ROM. I would probably try a different JB ROM to see if it's really your battery, or just the ROM.
It's a 4.2.2 update there is got be bugs....so u have to manage for a while

I flashed bombaridier to my phone and apparently something is very wrong. Battery down to 75% on standby for 2 hours. This can't be right. i'm not blaming the ROM, I think its great! Just wondering if anyone has any experience with what my problem could be. Thanks!

My battery life was that bad no matter what I flashed. Then finally I stuck with a rom (stock) and slowly it started getting better. Took like a weekafter calibrating, but now I can do 20 hours with no changes (all stock 40% brightness autosync on). My advice: stick with a rom Amd wait it out. Battery should get batter everyday.

Remember to wipe
Cache/ Partition
Factory Reset
FLASH
THEN wipe DALVIK CACHE after you flash.
You must must do a factory reset. Bombadier doesn't work correctly without it.
I never had to calibrate the battery if I did the steps above.
Bombabidier gets me 20-30 hours of heavy use.
and Poster #2 is correct. You have to wait it out at least 3 days of use before you see any steady battery #s.

I'm having good battery results with Bombardier. I first tried Beastmod and it was bad for me. In standby it was draining 10% per hour doing nothing.
With Bombardier it barely goes down 1% in an hour or two in standby. 40 minutes on the phone went from 71 to 69%.

Hey thanks. After doing that I instantly have better results. Must have missed a step when I first flashed it. Whatever was wrong is gone now. Also my whole phone was getting really warm too. way warmer than usual but after redoing these steps, everything seems back to normal. Thanks again!
Now I'll wait it out and cross my fingers that it gets even better. Thanks everybody for such quick responses!
try different rom/kernel? i had really bad battery life with the stock kernel

Well a4 moda and shehrammajid said be patient and wait it out, so I did. They were right so thanks! And thanks to everyone else for their input and quick replies. With moderate usage my battery got to the point where it lasted almost 2 full days. thanks again everyone!
My phone has TERRIBLE battery life. In about one hour (on stanby with wifi or data on) my phone loses 10% battery without use.. Which is a 10 hour battery on stanby. I can BARELY make it through one day without my phone dying either. By the time i get home from school, my phone is down from 100% to 65-70% with VERY minimal usage. Then by 9:30pm my battery is down to 20% with moderate usage on wifi. I am running Beastmod 4.2 REMASTERED with whatever Kernal comes with it.. I have tried Juggernaut, Beastmod, Beastmod Remastered, Stock, unrooted, domination with no luck. Ive tried underclocking, over clocking, changing settings, brightness, different launchers and so forth. Still, i have no luck. Yes, i have calibrated my battery, and this is my second phone from T-Mobile (and 3rd battery) that has a short battery life. Can someone PLEASE help me with this. Thanks!
EDIT: Just typing this message i have lost 3% of my battery on wifi...

I really dont know what the general view on this is....but if you are flashing a lot you wont know the difference. You need to get through atleast a few full cycles to figure out if something has decent battery life. No ones phone is going to put out the same results. I have had a lot of bad results with ROMs people claim to be the best. Just try a rom + kernal combo, give it a week, see if things start improving, else flash something new the next weekend. Do proper wipes, restart your phone when its charged at 100% and go from there.
You leave GPS on? GPS is a drain even if you're not actively using it. Also try charging the phone to 100%, then drain the battery completely, then charge it back up to 100% with the phone off. I've found that usually greatly improves battery life.
Do a full wipe and flash macnut r1. I had similar problem as you until i flashed this rom, i think his kernel has the best batt life of them all and most stable for me. Worth a try

Check Battery info. Is your phone awake even when the screen is off?
I leave it on lionheart governer with max 1,512 and min 192 and it works very well for me
Try this wipe your rom clean and dont install any apps just your emails and try it for a whole day maybe an app is eating your battery in the background.

There should be a "Screen on" section and an "Awake" section. The two should be pretty similar. If you see a lot of Awake time even though the screen isn't on, it means you have a wakelock.
Hello.
Does anyone have a problem with battery life?
I got my new htc one x last week and rooted it 2 days ago.
The rom that i installed is InsertCoin v6.4.5 and also installed franco kernel r9.
I really like the combination of these two except battery life. I have been using a lot of android phones and never have a experience like this before.
Battery just drains quickly. It droped from 100% to 60% in 2 hours. Im not a heavy user and didnt install many apps or any games. I can see that it doesnt drain much when its off but when im using it, i feel like battery decreses 1% every 2 minutes.
I installed rom - more than 3 times - when the battery was charged 100% and im not using any task killer or battery saver etc. Moreover, battery life was fine before i rooted HOX.
Is it only me having this problem?

There can be many reasons for your battery drain ranging from weak phone signal to power consuming apps running. I would suggest to use something like BetterBatteryStats apps to see what's draining your battery.
With energy rom and franco r9, I am getting 12-24 hours depending on usage.

Couldnt figure out with betterbatterystats apps. There is nothing suspicious thing. Well.. i have probably a bad luck with InsertCoin rom. I will try Android Revolution HD + stock kernel.

mate if u read thoroughly through francos thread, u will realize that the kernel needs time to settle. atleast 2 days with 2 full charges. yes, u will have abnormal battery drain at first, especially that u flashed both rom and kernel. just give give 2 days or 3 and u will notice the difference. hope this helps.

So thats what people say 'stablize'
I saw people mention that but i thought my case was completely different. Cuz its been 2 days since i installed insertcoin+franco.kernel.
Thank you. I will give another try then.
Full charge? i tried googling how to full charge mobile phone but couldnt find it. Is there any special way to full charge?
One thing that one should always do after installing a custom ROM is to wipe the battery statistics.
Simply go to the recovery, then to the advanced menu and wipe 'Battery Stats' from there.
This solves a lot of battery related problems for a lot of people.

Battery says are wiped when you get close to 100% charge, and hold the stats you see in the power options. Has no effect on battery life.
I noticed on the pkmn rom I had bad battery drain for no reason but on leedroid I had none.
I had nothing installed and no wake locks but I could watch the % drop like a stone.
Try going back to stock kernel first see if that works. If not try a different rom.

Me to experience battery drain at first time when flashing charmeleon. As i love the tweaks over there i can't switch the rom. So i just reflashed it.
Let me say how i did again and there is no battery drain after that.
1)Erasche cache manually(fastboot erase cache)
2)Use charmeleon boot.img flasher v5.0.0
3)Then again erase cache manually (fastboot erase cache)
4)Then goto recovery and factory reset, erase cache and dalvik cache,wipe battery stats.
5)Then installed rom with full wipe and there is no battery drain after that.
Guys try this method. You will get no battery drain.

Hey guys I'm kind of new to the rom world and let me say i LOVE IT. So much stuff you can do with the android. I'm on a i747 galaxy s3 and I've just downloaded the Pacman rom.I've downloaded other roms so i know i flashed this one correctly. I even re flashed it again last night. Both yesterday and tonight my battery went to 100%-%50 in one hour. After i charged it up it would decline 20 percent in one hour. I look at the time screen time on and to see if anything is waking up my phone excessively. And all sings say to no. Any tips? I feel like I'm back in pre ics days haha.

when you flash a new ROM it is recommended to wipe Cache, Dalvik, Factory Reset and System. If you've done that you should be okay with the installation portion.
Have you modified the kernel at all, have you over clocked anything?
Go to the play store and download BetterBatteryStats. This will help you determine the cause.

Yeah i have. When i installed i did the whole wipe thing. And I'm useing gsm batter monitor. All the readings are normal which is the weird part to me. And no i haven't over clocked (No need to imo) and haven't modified the kernel. I know that on previous androids you would have to do a wipe batter stats. I actually tried looking for that in CMW but i wasn't able to find it. Would you have to wipe the battery stats using "batter calibration" or wiping it manually in CMW? Or is that even necessary for galaxy s3s?

I would also recommend using Better Battery Stats as it is the best one I think. I always use the battery calibration app after I flash a new ROM. It usually takes a couple days or so anyways to have the new ROM settle in and everything. After a couple days you should see your battery life where it should be and not draining so fast depending on what your settings are.
Battery calibration is a myth and has been confirmed by Google themselves. Its all over the forum and wholly unnecessary. Those apps are useless. The only way to truly let your battery stats "calibrate" is to let the ROM and kernel settle into the phone after a few charge cycles.
Here's the Google+ discussion by one of Google's people: https://plus.google.com/u/0/105051985738280261832/posts/FV3LVtdVxPT
If you want to keep "calibrating" your battery for the warm and fuzzies, its your time and device.

Everyone's battery life varies. Honestly, it doesn't matter the ROM. The kernel does play a part in it but its how YOU use the phone, display brightness, sync, etc. Way too many factors.
As for me, I get about the same life on most ROM's I use after letting the phone settle for a few days. The only constant I have is the kernel I use which is in my signature. Lately, I've settled on one ROM as the dev is on top of his game with this device. That ROM is also in my sig.
As per title. Battery will drain .... Quickly !!! Then when I plug in to charge it instantly changes to over 50% charged. It will then charge to 100 (which I guess is actually less than 50% in reality).
I have tried various ROMs. I believe the battery is empty, just don't understand the instant reading of over 50% ??
I would assume the battery is done for. But I would try to drain battery boot into recovery And wipe battery stats. I've heard wiping the stats doesn't ddo anything useful..but its worth a shot.
