Okay so I presume all of you one X power users have noticed a the horrible battery performance. I only got my one x yesterday and I'm already frustrated with the fact that i yet again have to carry my charger around with me. Is there a fix? I have root and custom recovery. So if there is a fix for this please someone let me know.m
Since I flashed the Revolution HD I got excellent battery performance. Without doing too much stuff (just calling and texting), battery remains > 50% at the end of the day. I would really recommend that rom.
I've just flashed it, going to see how it goes. But I would've expected HTC to bang a beast of a battery for the beast of a processor and massive screen its gotta run. Oh well, still early days, hopefully we'll see massive software improvements.

I'm getting 6-7 on a full charge at the moment, but that's down to me being a power user.

And also you just got the phone yesterday. Batteries take about 10 charge cycles to reach full potential.

Not really, no. Personally I did not unlock device, neither root it, neither installed any fix. And I must say that I'm more happy with battery life than I was with my previous phone SGS2. More then 16 hours here with 4 accounts synchronization on, 3g/wifi on, and sometimes gps + music on (for Endomondo). I'm really happy with my One X.
ARHD Rom, auto-brightness, plain wallpaper, no haptic feedback, no roaming, managing syncing, and a few other tweaks will leave this devices battery life as one of the best.

Yep. Relax. I got 6 hours from first charge, 10 hours from second charge, 12 hours from third charge...
After over two weeks I'm now getting between 18 and 24 hours. Give it a couple of weeks before judging battery life.

I try to use as much as I can the first few days, and time it so that you have about 10-30% charge left when you reach home from work/school and then I let it charge overnight.
I know quite a lot of time was spent idle, but 60% after 7 and a half hours isn't too bad http://twitter.com/Dev_Meltus/status/194082996767309825/photo/1/large
I've not really had a problem with battery life so far.

how did u use it on those 7 hours? idling?
Have been seriously contemplating getting the One X.
My first choice had been the Galaxy S3..... but the One X seems the better choice.... I have had the iPhone 4 for almost 2 years, so now it's almost upgrade time If the Galaxy S3 had no physical home button I would be taking it.
Had been worried about the battery life of the one x but after reading these and a few others it seems worth it and it's available in black (dark grey but darker than S3 metallic blue)
I Just hope I don't have issues with app incompatibility for the apps I use on iPhone.
With normal usgae, I've got more than 10 hours after one charge. Not so happy with it but it's good enough for me.

have you got yourself the One X? if so, how is it compared with your previous phone?
i also want to swap my iphone 4 with One X and looking for different experiences especially with the battery life
I've turned everything off and left my phone on idle, my battery issue has persisted for over 6 months now (I bought it in Singapore on release day). With screen on min brightness, static wallpaper, most apps off, my battery drains fully within 6 hours. If I actually do anything with it like make phonecalls, it drains in hours. The battery phone is constantly hot, when on charge It's almost too hot to hold. If while on charge (AC) I use it to make a call, it complains that it's not receiving enough power. Should I look to get a replacement from HTC? I'm still using stock rom so it should be covered under warranty?
Sounds like the htc amaze battery overheat..
Also get gsam battery app.. it will tell you what apps are using what % of battery.
I also use advanced task manager from play store.. it proved to me how much gmaps Facebook and other bloat was ALWAYS RUNNING!.. I got root and froze it all with big improvements
Some of us who htc amaze w no warranty bought a new battery and that fixed it
e-Sex.. All of the carpral none of the tunnel

Aside from your time travel/exaggeration, I suggest better battery stats, finding out what is causing wake lock, and killing.it.
Your phone is fine, but you have some crapware on it.
So, is this normal to wait 2h30min and maybe more (!) to fully charge the phone ?
new phone, original charger and original usb cable...
From about 15% mine takes 3 hours

Yes, normal - mine takes 2hrs 50mins which I think is not bad for such a large battery.
Although my battery bank charges my HOX in less time at 2hrs 35mins

How the hell are you draining in 8hrs - constant use?
Normal days without gaming gets me 17+ hrs
Even streaming all day via data connection gets me more than 8 hours.
I noticed when I got mine, I thought it had low battery as I was always using it, due to the 'ive got a New phone, can't leave it alone bug'
Normal usage, few calls, bit of browsing, bit of gameplay etc should get you through your working day quite easily.

You can't be serious... Yes the old school phones lasted longer because they didn't have 4.7" hd displays to power...

It does, but that is not good enough.
Without root and a battery bank it`s a pain in the ars.
Coming from Sensation which was the same in the beginning and now it`s a beast.

Was talking about battery only.One day it should be the same on 4.7" displays, hopefully.
Idk what everyone is complaining about. I came from an iPhone which had amazing battery life and my HOX is just as equally good.

@op, yes.
this is what i got last night before i plugged my phone in to charge.
i can easily get through a day without wondering where i can plug in my baby.
i get over a days use with my battery since the last software update... but charging time does seem fast.
is there such a thing as overcharging in terms of degrading battery life?
Please use one of the existing threads on battery life and charging time.
We already have plenty of them and would like to keep everything compact.

Guys, I'm thinking about buying a Xperia ZQ (other version of the ZL), and first I have to know about its battery endurance, since I wouldn't be able to charge it everyday. If someone can answer, I would appreciate:
What do you think about its battery? How much do you usually get from it? A full day? And with YouTube? And what about with games?
Any other hints about it, please, comment.
Thanks.

1 day of battery life is normal in androids
Thank you guys.
How much time of screen on do you usually (without gaming or excessive YouTube viewing) get in a full cycle of battery? E.g: 4 hours, 4h 1/2, 5 hours..

2 hours without gaming
I get about 2 days battery life with 4-5 hours screen on time. But I don't sync anything with google and don't use the facebook app. And my phone mostly runs in 2g-mode (or wifi) because network sucks in my area.
How Much Screen on Time Do You Get?
Screen on Time for Daily Usage
Around 5h for 24h battery life...

Any ideas?
BT connexion issue ?
locked in active mode ?
I have similar problem. It started 1 month ago after I bought it. First it reconects few times a day, and after upgrading XPERIA Z3+ and XPERIA Z5 on Android 6.0 it starts to drain battery. Even my both phone battery starts to drop, it could last two days on Android 6.0 without SmartWatch 2 paired on both. When it is paired battery lasts 1 day both. On Android 5.1.1 on XPERIA Z5 and Android 5.0.2 on XPERIA Z3+ everything was fine (except mobile radio active bug that comes sometime). Few days ago I reset SmartWatch 2 and reinstall all apps related to SmartWatch 2. Reconnection stops but battery drain is still there. Then I fictory reset XPERIA Z3+ and SmartWatch 2 with no success. Drain is not by 1%. It stays on some % for hours and than drains battery by 3%, 6% even 10% or something like that at once. What can be couse? Mybe Android 6.0?
Update on this issue:
This morning I pair SmartWatch 2 with XPERIA Z5 Compact on Android 5.1.1. Everything went to normal. From 11:00 a.m. to 02:30 p.m. battery on SmartWatch 2 droped only 5%. Battery drops by 1% what is normal to me. And for battery on XPERIA Z5 Compact I can't tell because it has mobile radio active bug so this drain is not related to Smartwatch 2. I think Sony needs to update SmartWatch 2 for better Android 6.0 compability.

How to check? I've resetted watches, it didn't help.
Try to disable BT on SW2 (after the wath and phone connect) and use like this for one day to see battery power. With this you can see if is related to BT issue between phone and watch.
I have also an Z5C and sony confirm a BT issue wich must be resolved on next android Update.
For me, my SW2 has no issue at this time with my Z5C.
I switched BT off and SW2 discharged anyway. And it can't normally charge from PC (it was connected for 4 hours and battery is still 2%).

Battery dead if without connexion the battery drop from 100 to 0 quickly.
Try with wall charger. Pc is not good solution to drain current.
Mine's recently, suddenly started doing the same, can take less than 24hrs to go flat, with hardly any use. Used to last 3-4 days. Caught it on the 'reset progress bar' screen the other day, wondering if it had done an update or something?

Im still getting a faster battery drain than I would like, so i have removed the smart Music extenstion and downgraded the Smart Messaging to 1.2.9 and taking note of the battery drain rate to find the culprit.

Still went from 100% to dead in less than 12 hours. Might try just un-installing all apps and work up from there.

Im currently down to 2% a hour with the smart messaging 1.2.9. so hopefully thats the culprit for me

Dropped to about 38% in the first 30 mins, and now at 15:20 it's sat at 35%. I'll run it for a few days and start putting the apps back on.

I'm a little impatient when it comes to tracking things, so I tend to change things without leaving a long gap to see the results.
Yours?
That looks good, 2% per hour is around the same as me.
I just took the new Marshmallow update, I will try putting on the Music extension as I use it a bit and see how the usage goes.
