Hello guys,
Been using my HOX now for over a year and im loving it. Anyway a while ago the phone started to over heat and the battery drains so fast so I thought that theres something wrong with the rom.
I reset the phone to factory, wiped every thing, and installed a newer version(vipers)
Theres no more over heating I guess but the battery still drains so fast. I barley get 5 hours
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

I would suggest you try a new battery. Sometimes it's the battery that is not working properly, not the software. May be that will solve it
Helped? -> Hit the thanks button

Turn the phone fully off then with the phone off press the power,volume up, and volume down this should calibrate the circuit if it doesnt work then try to do this:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16808932

If it's needing a soft reset after it restarts, that sounds like the battery is loosing it's connection to the phone.
Check the contacts and the battery. Also make sure the contacts are sticking out and making good contact.
Worst case, the battery connector is breaking loose from the mainboard.
Best case, the battery is just not making very good contact to the phone.
and sure to check the condition of your battery.
some substandard/used/aged batteries fluctuates, from 100% to 70% or maybe even lower, that's what i've experienced when i bought my first "Xth" hand BA.. ahaha... i dont know how many times it passed hands.
Cool thanks,
well after having this problem for couple of months I finally took the battery out juggaled it around cleaned the contacts with my finger and not for 3 days already i experience no restarts
Yo There..

If u tries to take off your battery when your device if on.. then u put it again n press the "power" button.. you will see that the radio is "0"/"Zero"..
which means even your device can boot into the today screen it will not receive any Phone Signal.. then after u do a soft reset the radio will appear again..
which means the "signal loss" or problem is caused by the phone's power lost beacuse of the battery malfunctioning..!!
u done a good joob throwing out your battery.. I've battery problem too, but it's more annoying beacuse it cuse my device reset too.. this is realt bad!!
Try tightening up the screws
Try tightening up the screws behind the battery. I had same problem and now its fixed.
my htc s621 is randomly turning off on itself. i notice it does this either when it is feeling warm, or when im outside and the weather is a little chilli. i thought it might be a battery problem but i dont want to waste the money buying a battery if its not going to solve my problem. anyone encounter something like this before? any help or advice would be much appreciated. thank you.
had same issue a while ago. i solved it with a new battery...
you can check if your battery is bloated by making it spin on a flat table. if the battery keeps spinning, then it means you likely need to get a new one...
Probably the battery. I'm still managing with my original battery but I talk and text very little. When I put it under a heavy load like browsing, it shuts down. Doesn't do it when it's plugged into AC.

get a new battery... a friend of mine had that same issue.. turned on wifi, opened google, bye phone... i told him to get a new battery and he's fine with his dash
i have the same problem. I have buy a new battery on "battery update" (Hong Kong web site) payed €20,00 (almost £18,00) ..perfect!
But i must say that..unfortunately ..since i use 3evo roms...battery seems going crazy! Maybe i wrong...however
my batter is almost 4 years old but only from few time it's seems "go away"!
i't happens since i use often dash for watch divx and listem music !
task manager say :"battery backup 255% status high but "mAh" are very down!! Change your battery mate!
I have to concur. The same thing was happening to my phone over the past 2 weeks. Purchased a new battery from ebay (~$10) and everything is good to go. In fact, with the latest 3vo Rom, in the past 2 days my battery has been lasting longer!
hey guys deff a battery issue went through same thing with my wifes. fyi if you have had the phone less than a year call htc they will replace battery under warrenty no questions asked just have to have the imei number. swapped out the wifes payed nothing and fixed the problem.
hey, i just started getting this too.
and my battery is only 2 weeks old...

Hi
Just got this phone as an insurance replacement and really like it except that the phone gets really hot when using mobile data and then won't wake from sleep. I'm assuming its a heat issue. Using the B112 version of the software. Initially I though it was because it was rooted but even after a reset and un-rooted it's still happening. Think I've pinned it down to it happening when mobile data is switched on but there maybe another issue. Any ideas or advice gratefully recieved. Thanks

Not an answer, but I use mine on full brightness with mobile data on whenever I'm outdoors and browsing, haven't had any issues. Running 116SP01 on O2 in the UK. You could try switching ROM versions and if it still does it flash back to 112 then return it as a faulty replacement?

Think I've pinned it down to screen brightness. Gamed for a good 2 hours last night on half brightness. The phone got hot but I was able to wake it from sleep as normal. Possible that the screen on full brightness generates too much heat when doing something intensive? May try the 117 rom this weekend. Thanks

Upgrade to 118 sorted all the problems I was having. Not a single shut down since. Battery life better, less heat and no brightness issues. Loving this phone now :laugh:

how do you upgrade to 118? ive heard 120+ is lso around the web. can you tell me were to get it? Also does version you use provide any better battery by much? ive heard battery is awful with this phone but want to buy it
You can find stock firmware here: http://www.huaweiblog.de/downloads/ascend-p6-downloads/
Try B119. You can flash this rom via update app in your phone.
my phone shuts down intermittently, when I have it in my pocket but very seldom if i have it on the table. After did some research of setting the wifi sleep mode policy, deleted apps etc... i still have the same issue.
Hardware probably bad in my opinion.
Any solution if someone can chime in?
Thanks

I did replace the battery and has been trouble free for the last few days.
My old battery was bad. I recommend anyone with the same issue to check ur battery, use ur fingers to press the middle of the battery, if it feels kinda soft then ur battery is bad, replace it with a new battery then u will not have this issue anymore.

Well I had this problem when I drop my phone from only 1'' on the table. It shut down.
I clean the battery contacts, add a little bit of dielectric grease, and it made the trick.
Hi guys. My phone is overheating after 2-3 minutes of using whatever i do. Its not only when im playing games,its everytime i use the phone. The upper part of my phone , the parts near the camera and the upper screen are overheating very badly and the battery is always cold. If i'm not using the phone the battery will not decrease but after some minutes of using my battery my battery will decrease very fast . i had an another phone with battery problems and the battery was decreasing instead of using or not but with this phone the problem is because of the overheating when im using it and charging it. The phone was factory reseted but nothing changed. May i resoft it or reset it again or may i go to a service? Sorry for my bad english
Are you rooted

If you are using a custom kernel, don't forget to setup the kernel.

hello I had the same problem and the only thing that worked for me is that I used a heat dissipator on the CPU it`s real easy to do you just need to have some experience tearing down the phone
things you need:
1.- tear down the phone and locate the CPU it`s on the back of the motherboard when you open the phone
2.- select on tipe of dissipator because there`s paste and pads and the one that i`ve used are the Pads
I hope it helps, i still have some heating up but it`s way better than before
If no root or custom kernal maybe a rogue app
---------- Post added at 09:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:27 PM ----------
I second the pads ive always been taught that the paste is good but always a chance that the hotter it gets the paste could slightly liquify and run off. I know its dieelectric but still dont want to chance any kinda liquid on rest of boards
I forgot to tell that the screen was replaced with the warranty before i bought the phone from somebody . Maybe this is the problem? maybe the screen wasn't replaced properly? The screen consume 50% of my battery . Today like 2-3 hours overheating stops but now everything happens again .. Yesterday i factory reseted the phone but it doesn't helped me .. Should i send it back to the service to see if the screen is replaced properly?
PS: It's not rooted
Again try for a rogue app if not then yea probly ure best bet
