[Q] Strange behavior of the battery!! - HTC One X

Hi guys, sorry for my english but I'm using google translator xD
I'm a happy owner of Htc One x+ but I notice a strange behavior of the battery as soon as it arrives at the 13/14% down to 0% in less than a minute. You too have noticed this strange behavior? Can be solved in any way?

Try to fully charge it and then wipe battery stats in recovery.

I read some time ago that this procedure is useless...I'll try anyway

And this is the HTC one X forum, not the HTC one X+ forum

I realized immediately after posting and I can not delete it. Sorry!!

Don't be sorry , happends to the best of us ! Hahah but wiping the battery stats is of use when the battery level in the rom has a faulty display. Wiping the batt stats doesn't make the batt live longer. But it gives a more accurate level !

haha the strange thing is that I had the same problem with the stock rom.
Edit: I noticed that other people have the same problem ..

I don't have such issues on my one X but exactly the same problem on the Desire.
In some cases the phone already goes off at 25%.
Wiping the battery stats doesn't really help and if it does it helps for like a day and everything is broken again.
I've been told that this is a broken battery driver and there's nothing you can do about it without doing extremely high efforts.
Hope this helped a bit.

at this point we don't know what ROM/kernel zakkkkk is using, so droidzone's may not even be compatible.
calibrating does not increase battery life, just might stop if from shutting down suddenly at a higher than normal percentage.

so what rom/kernel combination are you running at the moment, did this occur after flashing something/installing an app?
in the battery usage, is it shown as awake during this time? i would check using something like betterbatterystats to see if anything is accidentally keeping it awake.
if there is still a problem, make a nandroid and do clean install of your ROM or 2.3.3 RUU without installing anything else, see if the problem still persists. may then be hardware.
(can't remember exactly, but i think the dialer issue could have been a gb sense error, which reported it much higher than it actually was actually using. i remember clicking the dialer battery use and seeing the actual cpu usage and runtime was minimal)
im using droidzones supernova rom and have been using it for about 6 months now. my battery life has been excellent. this problem only occurred today. i installed a few apps/games over the weekend but i dont know which one is causing this. i have also tried uninstalling a few but with no affect. are the any apps in the market that show which apps are draining battery?

sounds like you've partially answered your own question...
if you were having excellent battery life, then suddenly went bad after installing something, then this is the likely cause...

Does not magically stop battery drain problems... only placebo
@OP if you just recently flashed a ROM, give it a few cycles.

Battery Life Decreasing Rapidly

Hi To All
I need help. I have my HOX stocked 4.0.4 rooted, installed with ncx 2.1.7 v13 kernel. I realised that my battery drain is about 4-5% an hour or so. It was worsed with stock kernel. To add in, every 2 hours or so, there will be high current usage notification from currentwidget. Can someone guide me what is the best kernel for battery life, n do i need to have other settings like governor or anything else to maximise my battery?
By the way, i have only go keyboard, currentwidget, rom toolbox pro and applications that does not use startup. And i can't flash a custom rom due to my HOX cid is htc_044....
I seriously need a good kernel with good battery life or a compatible custom rom with htc_044.
Thanks alot to those who can help me.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Every ics custom rom is compatible
But when i looked at the roms, it's all under jelly bean. How do i know which rom is ics?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Go to development subforum, there's a thread which lists all the guides, mods, kernels and roms. All ics roms can be flashed on any cid.

Oh and go install betterbatterystats. Get it, use your phone normally, and check under process and partial wakelock if you have a rogue app causing wakelocks.
Ok thank you. I will look it up. I really need a better battery life rom or kernel.

Thanks Paul. Really needed a good recommendations from users out there. Been having bad days with my new HOX and the battery life like that....
Paul, to add on, does viperx includes the beatsaudio thing? And with faux kernel, how is your battery life?

Hey guys, I tried ViperX 2.7.1 with Faux 011 kernel, and found that no apps are intefering with my partial wakelock and process. But still, after a screen on, it's just a matter of 2-3mins that my battery will drop 2-3%. Anyone knows why is that so? And what can roughly cause the problem.

Have you got screen brightness turned down to what is acceptable mine is on 25%or around that. Also have you let battery do a full charge and discharge cycle. EG let battery discharge just below 14% My battery is alot better now then when i first had the phone, It does take a week or so to get better battery life after a few charging cycles. Also now you have flashed new give it a couple of days before you start to compare to let it settle so to speak.

When did u flash Viper ROM? U need to give the phone at least 3-4 charge cycles before complaining about battery life...Faux variant Free V11 for me is the best..have a look...but the most important thing is let the phone go through at least a couple charge cycles..and trust u will notice a huge improvement in the battery life.
NO. Don't discharge your phone. Li-ion batteries don't need discharge cycles. If you do that, it loses battery life.

I have tested this stock v custom and the custom was roughly 18% improvement to the stock rom and kernel. Got to admit when you first get them you can not put them down so the screen and other apps are being used more than you may think LOL :laugh:

Nope. The best for me was ncx kernel with viperx Rom, it needs to settle down (2-3 days) and I have 3-5 screen on time depending on tasks I do.
To the op.
I cant say anything about your problem, since you havent said anything about your current batteey time.
You can try all kernels available here on the forum, because all of them are compaitable with ics.
There are 1001 of battery threads, so no need to open new one. Just go and read, me myself wrote about 5 big posts about battery Life and how you make it netter...no need to repeat it at all.

Wipe battery stats problem

Hi guys, I have massive battery stats problem. I was yound and stupid when i came to xda. I wiped my battery stats two times while I was running arhd 15 i think. I am running the same rom without any updates but I have problem. Once I wiped my stats when hox had 30% battery and once he was 100%. So when I take him from charger he is good for 5 minutes and then he shuts down and gains some battery loss. Then he is ok untill 30% when he shuts down again and losses 20%. Can somebody help me, will the flashing kernel boot.img help? And will the factory reset help? Please someone I am desperate.

Weird :S
Wiping battery stats doesnt make a difference to that
Either you have a faulty batteyr, or its a software issue.
Make a backup of apps and stuff,
then wipe data/factory resrt in recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache, and flash another rom with its boot.img (IN fastboot)
Try Blade, amazing battery
I am using blade right now, I saw your comment and installed new hboot and the Rom. I must tell it is great. It didn't crash one time, but battery isn't that good but I guess it is couse old battery stats are still in there I will just use the battery calibration application. Thank you

Battery drain on 4.2.2 Roms

Hey guys, I have a terrible problem here. The problem is that I got tired of Sense and I love stock android 4.2 and I just cannot use roms built on that android version because the battery drain is humongous. Using my phone just to check twitter and facebook and it goes down in 3 hours. I tried Cyannogen Mod and I'm now on Icecoldjelly both with Xm kernel and it is always the same. This is terribly annoying because the roms are perfect and so is the phone, except for that battery. Does anybody recommend I do something, are there some mods/tweaks to increase battery life? Is I cleared battery stats and performed more than 3 charge cycles, in case you ask. Thank you, hope you can help me
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
haha! and I thought I was the only one... I see people who are getting 15-18 hours on ICJ...
I also get terribly low battery backup... even though battery is calibrated.. Sync off... Auto Brightness.. etc etc...
However, on sense roms I get great battery!

I would suggest a faulty battery, I use mine for twit and fb too and a whole load of other stuff but i get a lot more than 3 hours. I am on slimbean 4.2 now but I have tried cyanogen 10.1 and icj, both of which gave me similar battery life to slim, although neither of them could equal slimbean they were not as bad as you are experiencing

The reply wasn't intended to get you to try slim, only to show that not all 4.2 roms are as heavy on battery. there are plenty of others to try, I just prefer slim

I'd say thats about normal, but the op's 3 hours is seriously wrong. I would have to use navigation, music, facebook, twitter and XDA all at the same time to run my battery down that fast
With minimal usage I got around 5/6 hours. I'm going to try other roms and settings to see if I get this right. I'm currently on slim. I'll see how it performs tomorrow. If it goes bad then wth, I'll just go back to a Sense rom
Disable auto sync/fb location... use trickster mod and set governor to smartmax and IO scheduler to row/sio...
Cap the max frequency to 1.2 GHz... Use greenify to hibernate apps which you don;t need..
There is absolutely no lag for me... When I want to play some games I just switch to interactive or gaming governor!
Thanks everybody, I found my daily driver, today I got 13 hours with regular usage and still 25% to go, slimbean is the best. Even if it was not a recommendation to test the rom, it helped a lot
