Battery drains really fast, done a battery calibration but nothing, phone is only a year old ish and when its on charge it sometimes says full when its lower than 100% see picture below.
I had the same problem with charging.I charged it few times when it was turned off and now it is back to normal to 100% fully charged. About the drain issue try different kernel if you are using a custom rom!

Just switched to MildWild CM-2.8 and its charging fine, recommend a different kernel even with this rom ?
I had a mildwild rom for about a month and battery life was great but if it still drains you can try ManU kernel! I didn't try it but people say it's great!

No, not on oxygen derivatives. Uses different camera drivers so that doesn't work, but think other things won't either. Have to stick with the _thalamus kernels, which I believe are pretty good too. Same .35 base?

It could be that theres a bunch of apps running in the background?
Without a process manager I find my battery doesn't last as long.

You are right! My mistake
i use task killer and let apps close when screen is off, dont use any apps though really just facebook really. Using nighty 258 now battery seems better but have to data Wi-Fi is a killer :/ last about 5 hours with wi-fi on, having mobile data on is just as bad.
One shouldn't use a task killer app with Android. It does more bad than good, in terms of battery life.

Try doing 'wipe battery status' via recovery.

And it is wayne if the ROM is with or without SENSE ... The ROM should just be bugfree
Thanks for answeres

go down to "Senseless - ROMS" then just check the reviews there... or you can also try em' all...
C M 9 !!! stock kernel 2 days easy...
cm9 or just try Villain Rom or any rom that has the senseless option. which is most of them anyway.
This is subjective.

So the main culprit for the poor battery life of seemingly all HTC phones, including the One X, is still sense 4.0 and not the tegra 3 chipset?
How ready is cm9?

Well to quote myself, I managed to install cm9. Seems ok to me. I can't speak of the battery life yet, but I'll see.
Guys, PLEASE educate me on what a kernel is and does, what's a custom ROM & what does it have to do with battery life, etc.?

You could also try Sebastiaan15's AIO ROM... I have it and the battery lasts 3-4 days depending on how much you use your phone

Yeah, but it always depends on how much you use your phone. If you switch off mobile data, wifi, and solely use your phone for calling/texting once or twice a day, you'll get 2-3 days of usage out of it regardless of which ROM you're using.

He asked for SENSE Roms.
I am using RSK Special Edition, it has an excellent battery life (Governor Smartass V2 @ 1152 MHz).
Charged this morning to 100% and now it has 85 %. :good:
WiFi, GPS and BT are turned off.
If you are looking for Sense for the look
I'd suggest MIUI Marange, and search xda for MIUI Sense 4.0 Theme,
It is awesome how I just forget I have an MiUi Rom, mainly because I
Can put a beautiful app drawer and have sense widgets xD
Can Provide screenshot if you want.
RunnyMede aio s/e with kernel Ahmet-exp5_cfs_svs+
Smartassv2 - 245 - 998
there is probably better with other sense, but if u want sense 3.5 this was the best setup for me

Your sense is the best battery saver. Turn off data transfer when you don't need it and all will be good.

I am currently using the RSK Special Editiin with Alex-V kernel. The 15% shutdown os fixed, charging very fast, no drains, all the features working, very responsive and im happy with good battery life. If there are other good combinations I will be checking this thread to find them all.

Seriously, we need a port for Sense 4.1. It's already out for HTC One X and with the improved battery life it offers, I would really like to try it. Despite what others have said the battery life I'm getting out of CM10 and CM9 is trash compared to the stock. I know Sense is bloated and a lil laggy but it does a way better job of maintaining battery while idle by turning off radios and sync. I could leave my phone for the entire night while sleeping and it MIGHT drain 1-2%. CM10 drains my battery by 20% in like 2-3 hours on standby. In the battery stats on stock the "awake" bar wouldn't be there when the phone is idle. With CM10, the "awake" bar under battery stats is sporadically there all the time, even when the phone is idle the entire time. Can some dev please help us out? Where is jmz when you need him...

sense port as you said for one x.. what a big joke. htc one x has full sense from stock, not a port. cm10 (build 89) has issues with deep sleep so that's why you loose a lot of battery even when the phone is idle. i suggest using the nightly build of cm10 because the issue is gone in that and the battery will be increased 100% more. if you do want sense and you don't like the freedom of cm9 and cm10 that has to offer, i suggest two things: go back to stock and run a crappy software that lags every time or flash the [ROM-PrimoU|GSM] [01-September] myONEv RC5.0 FX from the development section + a good kernel that gives you the possibility to overclock your cpu like Titanium Kernel build 5.
^ only if you are GSM.
HTC desire x would be a better port

Sorry I should have specified this in my first post. I have a Virgin Mobile USA PrimoC (CDMA) phone. I understand HTC One X's sense 4.1 isn't a port. I'm saying we could use someone porting 4.1 FROM the One X for our phone. jmz did that with his JmzOneV4 ROM with full sense 4 from the One X. I know that there are some really good ROMs/kernels out there for PrimoU phones but for PimoC's all we've got is simonssimons' kernel and although its amazing, for some reason my phone stays in the "awake" state ALL THE TIME. I just reverted to stock this weekend and I'm finally seeing my battery life back to where I liked it. I'm not a dev so I can't say for sure but with CM 10 ROM with JellyBoot4.img kernel and with CM9 with sickkernelv0.6 my phone's battery stats showed that the phone was in the "awake" state pretty much all the time and I barely got up to 10 full hours on my battery.
I don't really want sense but I like how it allocates resources and turns off radios when not needed in order to save battery. I can get almost 2 days with stock. I haven't seen this with any of the custom kernels that have been released since PrimoC's kernel source was released.
What I want is CM10, but with the battery life I've heard so many people boasting about. I have not experienced good battery life with any version of CM or with any custom kernels I've tried so far and for now I'm stuck with sense.
Also I've not heard of any PrimoC'ers with such good battery life as PrimoU'ers have claimed.

That would be amazing! If you can, try to talk to JMZ, like I said I think he ported full sense 4 from the OneX for the OneV on his JmzOneV4 rom. There were some issues there with screen size and display, especialy when using the full sense 4 lock screens, and some other things (like the clock app) but it still worked really well. Like cpie said, the desire x's sense 4.1 might work better with the screen size.
I use paranoid Android and the battery life is incredible. Don't Miss out on custom roms like cm 9, 10, myonev, paranoid. That's the best thing that could happen to your phone.
And for sure your requirements will be met anytime soon. Just give it some time. The devs for must be working on that.

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

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 get around this much:

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
