I charged my HTC ONE X to 100%, took it out of the charger and I have now been 1h 37m 46s on battery, and it ALREADY has drained to 70% !!!
what my phone uses or so it says :
screen 78%
cell standby 6%
android OS 5%
android system 4%
phone idle 4%
whatsapp 3%
what does it mean 78% screen? that my screen is the big killer for my drain? because that would make non sense since I have not had it on that much..and still.....30% in 1.3hours? that's just insanely bad!
stock rom from Holland btw...didn't change a single thing to my phone since I do not know how....
any input on why it drains so rapidly?
thanks!
I would post a screenshot but I don't have ''root'' access'' or something lol sorry!

firstly you can take a screenshot by pressing power button and home button at
the same time..
how old is the phone?
you are ok bro. for me it drained 17% with 15 minutes screen on time.
this is one big lol.
i am struggling to get 7 hours battery life
If you don't mind the effects on warranty, there are some system mods things that can be done to improve battery life...
Otherwise try turning off extra wireless services, and lowering the brightness on your screen.
I was getting 8-9 hours outa my battery, since rooted and flashed leedroid's rom and I got 26 hours with 30% to go....
what a difference.....
Basically in android, especially LCD screens, you can expect under 3 hours of continual screen use in daily activities. Often way under.
I've gone through a Motorola Milestone, Samsung Galaxy S and Nexus S, HTC Sensation and now One X. None of them broke the three hour mark for screen on time.
Standby and other use, sure, you can push a day or so but the screen is the major killer. Even with 1900mAh after-market batteries for the Sensation I was just about pushing 2.x hours. Screen usually on auto, but often inside buildings.
Counter to what may seem obvious is that if you have WiFi available - use it. It uses less power than the data connection on cellular networks and can improve standby time by a fair bit. Assuming you use push notifications and the like.

is rooting hard? i searched it on the internet but the only thing i found was some half-assed english site trying to explain what to do...couldn't follow it, and also it didn't work :/
I don't know all the terms etc they use so that makes it quite a fair bit harder for me!
Two Questions:
- What are your Brightness settings?
(Settings - Display & gestures - Brightness)
- Do you have Wifi/3G constantly on?
(Settings - Wireless & networks: is Wi-Fi and/or Mobile network: ON?)
How to improve Battery drain:
- Go to: Settings - Display & gestures - Brightness:
and untick: Automatic brightness
with your finger slide the brightness level to much lower than it is now (I have it at only 1/4)
confirm with: OK
- Whenever you do not need to be online (internet), make sure to switch off Wi-Fi and Mobile network
- Switch off notifications for e.g. Facebook, Twitter, Email (you need to open each app and in the Menu have to untick notifications)
From personal experience, I can tell you that having internet on constantly aka WhatsApp sending notifications for each chat message, Facebook and Email sending notifications, ... costs you a lot of battery
Brightness at full level also drains battery badly.
- Following above-mentioned tips, you will get a standby time on the HTC One X of up to 2 full days.
Hope I could help a bit.

You need to get on leedroid Currently on 71% battery also, but slight difference in how i got there:
16hrs standby
half hour screen on (auto brightness)
5 mins calls,
3g/wifi/locations always on.
Very light usage day for me, but it's very different results to yours
M.
edited for clarity/typos
who would you have your phone on standby for 16hours....I used it more than half an hour a day (half hour screen on as you said) so that says nothing for me lol
and my screen has low brightness but that doesn't really seem to effect it THAT much, but yesn i do have 3d on constantly aswel as fb whatsapp etc...but I do need to be in contact with people so I guess there nothing to fix :/ except maybe a ligh rom but i have no idea how that works haha, might search youtube
I have the same problem but i'm actually using the phone.
As a heavy user (and i mean heavy user) i've yet to get more than 3 hours on screen time with this. once i used it for only 2hours 20 mins and the battery was dead. I'm rooted running leedroid and the battery life is very bad for onscreen time.
Anyone else getting these figures.
hi guys..
i am on stock rom updated to latest but having problems with my battery
take a look at the screenshot. i currently have 30% battery.
as you can see from almost 11 hours of my latest charge 9hours and 20 mins
my phone was at deep sleep.(only 1hour and 40 mins of light usage)
when its locked it shows excelent battery (1% per hour) but after an hour passes and even if i just unlock it and browse a bit my phone ,i lose 5-6% .
my phone is 4days old only.
maybe the problem is just temporary?
thnx in advance for any help.
I'm using an App called 'Screen Adjuster', in which you can set the screen brightness (say 50%), and then auto adjust brightness within the selected range (50% range).
You can adjust the brightness anytime, I found it is very handy because the original auto brightness is simply too bright.
One drawback is that you can click to install 3rd party apk with this App running, don't know why, but just for your reference.
This is what i get.
With surfing a little bit gaming and chatting.

Trying Using Better Battery Stats or Factory Reset Your Phone
+1 May your ROM is battery unfriendly??
What rom etc are you using?
Restart your phone. Sometimes, if you use GPS, you get this problem until you reboot your phone.

Hello guys,
i own Lg og e975 Indian phone, i have been looking around people praising lgog battery life to be excellent and some people experiencing it be just opposite...my battery darins in weird manner like initialy from 100% to 80% it takes 90 odd mins (2g data on, eco mode on, screen continuous on) and it marginally varies between 80% to 30% but below 30% like from 30% to 0% it last only 45 mins with same setting above eco on, 2g and screen on
one experiment (eco on, screen on 35% with auto off, 2g data on)
100% to 94% in 30 mins, 6% in 30 mins, thats 5 mins per 1% battery drain is it normal? please post your results also kitkat is not launched here in india is it true? does kitkat update improve battery?
Yes, battery life is bit weird.... When I was in stock jb i used to get some 12 or 15 hrs with 2 hrs screen on time..... I just flashed open EU stock KK kdz and solid keynel.... Now getting around 20 hrs of battry backup with same usage and 3 nd half hrs of screen on time.... Obviously undervolted my device to 1v for 1512mhz..

Two days ago.. bt this issue is there
The battery meter is just an estimation of battery life. It shouldn't be expected to be that accurate (within a few or even 5 or 10%), nor should you make a habit of draining your phone to below 10% anyway.

thanks for your reply but i managed to solve my problem ... i wiped cache partition and performed soft reset for two minutes.. and now battery indicator is fine enough and i m getting 4.5 hours screen time with 35% brightness and locations are completely turned off. (Fck you google) and standy by time is much improved as well.... 1% battery drain in 2.5 hours on standby...... i m one stock lollipop .. unrooted as well... quite satisfied. now... i m happy to go for htc and not samsung because they have drastic problemss with lollipop
Hi, I have a problem with my g3
The battery dies so fast and i dont know if its battery problem or maybe system, I have fulmics 7.0
Second problem with battery is that when it says 30% it sometimes switch off, and when i try to wake phone up it says 0%
What should i do?
It's battery. I have 2, one die after 5 hrs on 20% another keep about 12 hrs on same mobile. Buy new one.
