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

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.
Hi guys im wondering who else have a really really battery life, it drops so quick :S
i have brightness low,and seems its draining fast. i tried stock for a little and seems it drops not so fast but still fast, i compare with my old evo and wow was a beast it can last tooo long before drop 1% and htc one X its giving me so much issues i tried insert one coin, and im now on leedroid (seems better) i have to get juice defender ( i never have to use) using hard my old phone (EVO 3D) drops like 50% in 4 hours of Hard use, 2.5 hours bluetooth headsetplaying music, some browsing, whatsapp, twitter and facebook. sometimnes drop 60% its not so bad, perhaps yesterday in almost the same time and doing a lot less drop from 70% to 0% idk what happening or if this is normal because screen? anyone has this issue?
or maybe we can do a "test" maybe playing a video for 30 min or something wifi on, just to test.
Maybe could be my radio? im using HK htc one X in mexico, the 3G works great perhaps could drain more battery?
Any help i will apreciate thanks a lot, i love the phone but this sucks
Regards
How long have you using HOX. I am getting 1 day of battery life after heavy use.
Have you tried battery test, or safe mode?
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
i have +/- 40 hours, average use,
its like my sensation, with 1730mAh battery (well in my sensation with bricked kernel i have +/- 50 hours)
wow make me feel like my battery its faulty (hope no)
well i have been using for 1 day i hope last well the next days LOL my warranty its void due unlocked bootloader xD damn i hope works well i will try charge when the phone its off, i should try make a "battery tester" i mean maybe some benchmarks? like doing some stuff and see how much battery drops, decoding and so on maybe for one hour and compare between phones to see if you have issues or something, no one has done something like that?
Thanks a lot i really like the phone i hope its just something to get fixed soon
i really apreciate all comments, and make me feel bad lol i

Drain the battery completely and then charge for at least 8 or more hours, use the phone as normal and let it drain completely again and then charge for a minimum of 3 hours, after a couple of days it should last longer and if you can or need to upgrade to the latest OTA then do so.

well that is not really helping him is it. no point you telling him you getting that kinda of use of out the battery..it is like rubbing it in his face
but anyway 3g does drain battery specially if the signal is low and it is trying to find the best possible signal for you. only use it when you need it. same goes for wifi. for wifi i would have it to sleep when screen is off.
have a look in the battery stats thread and few people give tips in there on how to extend the battery life mate.

maybe coincidence idk maybe has something to do, any Radio to flash? or firmware? (safe and tested one please xD)

if i was you i would not let it drain completely..let it die down to say 5% i would then fully charge it like overnight. then go here install that apk and once you have fully charged let the battery drain again. once it drains to say 15% check what wakelocks you have. that will help you see where the issue lies and the battery gets drained..better explanation on the thread i gave you the link of mate

if your carrier still shows that you have updates then i would say do that as well mate. radio as far as i know we can not flash just as yet as we need s-off to do that so your best bet is the OTA if you are not on the latest firmware
Wait & see what the battery lasts like after a couple of days of charge & discharge, mine was poor on the first day.
I always try to charge mine up over night & my battery lasts on average 40 - 48 hours now.
The other day i had wi fi on & gps on read some of a book, 3 or 4 calls 5 messages & used a gps app for a while had just over 2 hours of screen on time & after 14 hours still had 60% battery left.
There is no reason why your phone wont get that after a couple of days, hope it is the case for you
Estoy orgulloso que tenemos mexicanos que tienen un One X
Hopefully as updates come, battery life will improve
I´ve been using the HOX for 5 days and it does get better after you run some cycles, but I still find it´s not as good as the battery life on the GS2 I used to have (I was running the Illusion rom).
With the GS2 I would leave the brightness at full blast, I would watch about 1 hour of video, I would use the calendar a lot, I would make a couple of calls and by 19h when I got home my battery would be around 80%. I do the exact same things on the HOX and I get a little less than 70% at the end of the day.

Have you tried running BetterBatteryStats?

It may give you some idea of where the power drain is occurring. I've found it invaluable in the past where I've had battery drain and I couldn't see what was causing it.

Is this possible on phones with clockwork recovery? My phone turns on automatically when it's got some charge
Hi guys!
I recently got a nexus 7 2013 for christmas, what a device
It came with 30% battery, which went so fast! I knew that was going to happen
this is the first time its been charged too 100% and its on 68% with 2hours and 23minutes of screen on time, not great considering everyone else is getting 7 hours plus
So my question is, will it get better?
Many thanks, Jack

We need a lot more info than that. What were you doing for 2hrs and 23mins, watching a movie? I'm sure that you know that different things affect the battery, and it is hard to tell what's going based on the info given.
And for the record, I can get incredible battery life if I set my display to stay on, and let it sit there. Just saying....
Also, please provide a screenshot, if possible. Thanks.

If you do the math, with your current usage, you would get 7 and half hours of screen on time.
100-68 percent left = 32 percent used. 143 minutes screen on time / 32 percent = 4.47 minutes per 1 percent battery. So 4.47 X 100 = 447 minutes which equals 7 hours and 27 minutes.

Go to settings - location - and disable the location (choose no). I noticed that the battery drain is way faster if you have it on, even if it's only for device. Atleast for me, it worked and I now have way more battery life time. Sorry for my english.
So you used 20% of your battery with +2h of screen time and you're complaining?
Sounds about right to me anyway.
Battery-life is very good of the N7-2013! :good:
Just got a Galaxy tab 3 8.0 and i am wondering what sort of battery life i should be seeing. I just played 20 mins of gta 3 with wifi off and brightness about 65 to 75 percent. It used ten percent of the battery. Does that seem about right? Also what should i expect while surfing the net because that seems to drain it very quick. Thanks a lot, first time android user and im getting paranoid that i have ended up with a dodgy battery lol

Its related issue. I also had crazy drainage. Like 50% to 35% in 3-4 minutes. Turns out the USB main board was not charging correctly. It would show 100% but in reality the battery was only like 50%. I noticed it when I did a reset on it. Before tablet reset battery was 80%. After reset it was 35%.
But also, i think GTA should be to blame here. Some games have crazy battery usage.

Hi guys, I've bought yesterday a moto 360. I've updated it to the last firmware and linked it to my phone.
Today it was charged 100% and now (after 5 hours) it was 0%.
Is that normal? I also turned wifi off

Depends on what you do with it. When I tried to watch YouTube on my watch the batt drained about 20% in 6 minutes. Lol.
But if you did nothing like that, just normal use then it's not normal. Maybe restart?

i did experience a drain yesterday of 30% per hr out of the blue, mid day after topping tha batt offf....reboot fixed it
I have recently started having the same problem. The watch used to last until 11PM and still be in the 30 to 40% range. Now by 3PM it is at 6% - and that's just using ti to tell time and receive notifications. If I use navigation it won't last to noon. Does anyone know how to track down the problem app or apps? The android wear battery monitor doesn't help. Its usage adds up to less than 100%
Mine did that when I updated. Did a factory reset and all was well

I've done several factory resets but no improvement.
Do you have ambient mode turned on? Do you have tilt to wake turned on?
That can make a huge difference.
I usually take mine off the charger in the morning at around 730. I usually do not put it back on the charger at home at night until midnight. At that time, I normally have between 40 and 60 percent remaining.
However, ever since the update, two or three, times, I would experience a sudden rapid drain part way through the day. I don't know what triggers it. But I go from a lot to almost nothing in virtually no time. If I happen to notice it, I do a restart and then all is good.
But for you, if ambient is turned off and tilt to wake is turned off, then what you are experiencing is definitely not normal.
