Since the OTA update to ICS on my NS4G, my phone is warm to the touch constantly and the battery only makes it 3hrs now.

The battery data shows it is Exchange Services that is the culprit.

I've run it on push, 15min, 30min, 1hr updating with no improvements.

I've rebooted the phone many times, removed the battery a few times, still an issue.

Wi-fi was already set to off unless plugged in.

All my other apps, FB, Twitter etc are all set to poll either manually or at the longest optional intervals.

I'm configured basically the same way I was with the initial build that used to last me most of a day without issue.

I pretty well have to keep Exchange for work reasons or I have to carry a second phone.

Anyone else seeing this same issue? I basically have to leave the phone plugged in all the time.

[Nexus S General] TrIn@dOr:
Buy 2 more batteries plus a wall charger... that's the only solution I've found for mine.

Although my phone last 7/8 hours... (24 hours = 3 batteries for me), try with a different battery and look for high mAh!!
[Nexus S General] kingsqueak:
I disabled the Exchange account and rebooted

Going to see if removing the Exchange account will stop the issue. If it does, I'll try re-adding it and see if it continues.

I'm hoping that the migration of the account may have fouled something up. We'll see.

[Nexus S General] kingsqueak:
This is a known issue for a while it seems

From Google "ics exchange services battery drain" I found out this is a long standing known issue they have not yet fixed.

I've fully disabled the Exchange Services under the app manager for now.

It looks like that unless Google comes up with a fix, ICS just may not be a platform to use if you need access to corp Exchange services over an Android phone.

Thanks for the charger suggestion, I'm just afraid I might break the flimsy battery cover on this phone if I had to swap batts all the time.

[Nexus S General] f.delbene:
Hello all.

My Exchange Services are using around 3% of battery, on ICS 4.0.4.

I think that battery consumption could be affected by traffic, settings and Exchange version too.

For comparison I have around 40 emails per day, and very few calendar and contacts changes. My settings are to push sync email, contacts and calendar.

My Exchange version is 2007 SP2.
[Nexus S General] kingsqueak:
It may be the Exchange version

I'm unsure what version Exchange they use here, but it's very old. Via OWA under options there is nothing about Active Sync as was given as a suggestion to check for possible multiple account registrations under Options -> More Options -> Phones.

Now that I've disabled Exchange Services completely through the app manager, the phone is behaving normally again. That's a plus at least.

I had all the sync for mail, calendar and contacts configured when it was running. The calendar for me is actually more important than the mail was. Bummer.
[Nexus S General] dpeeps74:
Most business would not approve or allow but I have a 2nd Gmail account that I use just for work calendar. I have the Google calendar sync installed on my work system to sync my outlook calendar. Maybe an option for you.
[LG Optimus 2x] csunny95:
after flashin cm7. I can see there are more option on network.

1) GSM/WCDMA AUTO

2) ONLY WCDMA

3) ONLY GSM

4) GSM/WCDMA(WCDMA PREF)

Also. there is a option of "Only using 2G network", is this same as "ONLY GSM"??

which option will u prefer and have a balance between networking speed and battery??

Thx
[LG Optimus 2x] LilProphet:
Use only GSM if you wanna save battery.
[LG Optimus 2x] grognaz:
That part is very bugy depending on what bb/ril one uses.

With most combinations 2g only resets on reboot.

With some when enabling 2g it automaticly switches to gsm only (i guess thats how its supposed to work..)

With others 2g is greyed out when not in gsm only...

And so on...

At some point i lost track of all the different combinations...

The only bb for me was 218 that switched the mode when enabling 2g only and did not reset on reboot. So you probably have to see which bb works for you, but then there is that thing with battery drain, call qualit and wrong timezone, so sacrificing one for an other might reduce choices....
[HTC One X] jodo2017:
Hi.

I would like to know how I use Wi-Fi Direct on my One X to transfer files to another One X or an Asus Transformer Prime.

I manage to connect the devices through Wi-Fi Direct Settings, but I can't find a way to send files to the receiving device.

When I use file managers like Astro and select to send a file, I only get options like Bluetooth, Dropbox, Facebook, etc. but no Wi-Fi Direct option.

How do I do?

Best Regards

Jorge
[HTC One X] debully:
+1 wtf is wifi direct?
[HTC One X] ZigmunD:
WiFi Direct - it is only WiFi connection between devices. You need to use some applications or services like FTP, NFS, Samba, etc. to transfer files over this connection.

Better read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSI_model to understand communication system.
[HTC One X] varunkrish:
Sadly WiFi direct and NFC are so poorly implemented in today's devices.. I have barely been able to transfer anything between devices.
[HTC One X] tle1:
for now it's a P.O.S me too can't even use the feature for HTC one X sux
[HTC One X] cjm1979:
Htc online chat support told me that you can only receive files atm with this but they might do an update later to enable it to send files too. Wtf!
[HTC One X] schriss:
Try this:

Connect devices via WiFi Direct.

Pair via Bluetooth.

Try sending via Bluetooth.

From what I have read, connection is made via Bluetooth but the actual data transfer should happen via WiFi.
[HTC One X] cjm1979:
Cheers for the suggestion. I'll give it a go and post back
[HTC One X] chillaxx:
Any progress? I've got a connection going between my Asus TF201 transformer Prime and the One X but after that, nothing. Connection drops after short time. I've read that mp3's on a working connection are sent almost instantly. 800 mb takes 60 sec. Would be great to have this working?

wi-fi direct

Hi all.

Acc to the below info After the both android device's wi-fi direct is enabled, configured and connected each other, a file transfer is supposed to be done share/ via wi-fi.

But when I select a file and wanted to share, it does not appear "via wi-fi" option under share ..

Why ?

"Step VI: After the connection is successful, you should try to transfer a file through Wi-Fi Direct, for this either you go to your file manager or gallery. Choose any file and click on ‘share via’ and choose ‘Wi-Fi’. It will directly start sending the selected file to the connected device."

Wifi Shoot app on Google Play store uses Wifi Direct

I found an app on google play store and apparently its the only app which utilizes the wifi direct capabilities.

The app name is "Wifi Shoot (beta)" You can checkout the demo video in the app page for how to use this app.

The app still in beta. I was able to send a file using this app over with wifi direct from my HTC One X to my friend's Galaxy Note. However i was unable to do vice versa. that is, i was unable to receive files from other device to my HTC One X. I used this app on my HTC One X and my friend's HTC One X and tried for hours to send and receive files but without any success. Only success was, i was able to send file to my friends' Galaxy Note. I believe on HTC devices, the implantation of wifi direct itself is not stable.

I searched for many apps in play store but found this app to be the one which actually uses the wifi direct technology. Looking forward for the stable version.

[HTC One X] peerdevicenet:
sharing thru wi-fi and wi-fi direct

if you are still interested in options of sharing thru wi-fi direct, i developed an android app "PeerDeviceNet" which supports sharing over wi-fi direct and traditional wi-fi net. it runs android2.2+ and has been on google play for a while. you can share web pages, contact, photos, videos and other docs with it. unfortunately i cannot post the market link here (too new to post external links). you can find all the links at my web site: peerdevicenet.net ; or search for it at google play.

[HTC One X] xdawink:
Hi I am using app called Software data transfer, managed to send files direct so far between GSi9000, galaxy tab 10.1. N7000, Galaxy beam and HOX.

So far its the only app for me that is simple to use without the hassle of setting up.. however although its free on google playstore, it seems a bit over laden with useless permissions. Till another app comes along i think currently its the only app to transfer file via wifi direct with different devices. Hope this helps cheers:o
[HTC One X] peerdevicenet:
yes, it requires other device have peerdevicenet installed because it run in peer-peer style.

it is a free app at google play:

it works with wifi, and wifi direct (so you don't need external wifi net).

hi...

I know it's a ish old thread but the WiFi Shoot app it was commented before (I'm the developer) just went to v1.0 and from all my tests it's running very stable.

It works integrating on the Share menu of the apps (gallery, file manager), and the thing you launch from the launcher it's to receive only.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.budius.WiFiShoot

there will always be issues between different hardwares and some manufacturers that implement WiFi direct poorly, but....

I've tested between SGS3, GNote, GNexus, SGS2, TF201, N7, ..... but I've never had a HTC One X to test... so if you guys want to give a shoot and let me know.

After jelly bean update ,WiFi direct works perfect ....installed an app 'WiFi direct,' from app store nd file transfer through WiFi direct is easier...:):):cool:
[HTC One X] fuzedbyhtc:
First my apologies for brining up such an old thread. Wi-fi Direct on the One X is only (at this time) used for transfering media to a compatible Hub or TV and isn't implemented like Samsungs where you can, out of the box, transfer files (any file/any size..i've tried this sent a 2.4 GB movie to a co worker) to any other wifi direct device. The One X will work with 3rd party software, as mentioned in this thread.

I have also verified this with HTC support.

[HTC One X] imran1000:
Samsung is best!

Samsung's S beam is what takes advantage of nfc and wifi direct simultaneously! Rest assured we need a third party app such SuperBeam to do it!
[HTC One X] whatisreal7:
WiFi Direct was officially supported in Android in ICS, but it works like sh!t. It was stabilized in JB (by some little startup), and so now it finally works. But as many posters have mentioned, you need an app that takes advantage of the WiFi Direct API's in order for you to do "stuff" with it. Simply enabling it in the Settings menu and pairing with another phone won't do anyting.

Coincidentally, we are building an app called Drop, and it is a simple, fast, and secure way to share files with people/devices in proximity over WiFi Direct. We are going into a limited Private Beta soon, so if you're up for the challenge, (and running Jelly Bean) then sign up at www.get-drop.com. Seats are limited, and we have a rolling enrollment, so check it out.

It is a little sad at even within this esteemed community of developers, we have those like to bash others while promoting their own wares.

I'd be an idiot if I didn't do my competitive analysis before launching into this product. Do you know how many photo sharing apps there were until Instagram came along? Lots. Moreover, do you know how many apps there were that also provided filters for photos before instagram came along? Lots. Another point, you know how after Instagram sold for $1B that many said "the photo sharing war is over"? Have you heard of SnapChat or FrontBack? SnapChat just raised money valuing itself at $860M.

If there is a market that is underserved, or served by substandard products, there is always an opportunity.

Amen to that! I've tried all the file sharing apps on the app store, and although i'm somewhat tech savvy I'm no super user. All these apps look like they were designed by engineers for engineers. If you're trying to appeal to the masses, you're going to have to K.I.S.S (keep it simple stupid)....kind of like Apple =)

Whatisreal...I'm curious, your approach, from what www.get-drop.com user interface shows, seem like AirDrop for Android. Is that your angle?
[HTC One X] whatisreal7:
Hey Allforone. I guess you can say the first instantiation of our product is like AirDrop, although when you actually play with it, it will have several advantages over it. But long term, we have larger ambitions and want to be the de-facto way by which people move content/information...should be a fun journey!

Is there any method to fix the issue?

Any help would be appreciated :D

[Epic 4G General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Please share what is preventing you from using ICS roms. The Cyanogenmod developers for the Epic do not know what to fix unless you tell them. Currently I feel that CM9 is fully working for the Epic and have not run into a bug. It feels more stable than a stock ROM to me.

Please try to reproduce the issue on a clean CM9 (latest version) without a custom kernel and after wiping data before posting.
[Epic 4G General] mjben:
I wont use the ICS roms like AOKP or CM because there always seems to be something that doesn't work that I consider important to my personal daily use. I find it quite impressive that the roms have more customization that anyone could possibly use, but something that I need every day like VM or video recording wont work properly. And then there are the little things like volume and light levels or audio routing. I mean, there always seems to be something wrong with them, something that affects my normal minute by minute use of the phone.

further, I don't understand why the google apps aren't built-in. No, it's not that hard to download and flash the gapps, but at the moment I'm trying to do just that and the link isn't working- so no gapps for me, so no AOKP for me either. (yeah, I was going to give it a try).

lastly, white for the calendar background is about as enjoyable to look at as much as burlap makes for a choice undergarment material.

I like stock CM 9 beta 3, but I keep going back to the Nyan kernel for the voodoo color. Anyone else?

am I the only one that wants to see voodoo on Cm 9
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
Not me. I would much prefer a kernel as awesome as Nyan without Voodoo Color. Sure, while it does make the colors juicier and the backgrounds smoother, it's not as natural to me. The screen is much darker and if you try to brighten it, it seems almost washed out. I've tried it and have tried many different settings a bunch of people recommend, and maybe it's just me but I really hope they don't include it in any ROM. Considering that CM9 is meant to be an improved "stock" experience for all, the idea of changing the color contrast is too controversial. Many will like it, many will hate it. But for now, they should just keep what they have as most people don't seem all that upset about it. If you are, than just flash Nyan Kernel.

Im running AOKP 35.2 battery life is....... sad. Thankfully Im never too far from juice cause with moderate use (some web and youtubing, maybe some music on pandora over the wifi) im dropping to 25% after 9 hours, with only an hour and a half of screen on time. Noticed a lot of lag in this build over build 34. I can tolerate the app crashes and lockups, mms not working (can always switch to email), as long as I have my visual voicemail (which I do). But for most people I can see a lot of the things I overlook holding them back from using AOKP as a daily driver.
[Epic 4G General] DurhamHusker:
Been using CM9 for a few months and I've never had a dropped call. Is this something others have reported with Beta 3 or other CM9 releases?
[Epic 4G General] codest3r:
I have been using CM9 on my phone and my wifes too as daily drivers. I've been on it since the first kang. Currently on beta 3. The biggest thing causing me to consider a TW ROM is battery life. I expect AOSP ROM to blow TW ROM battery life away. Its disappointing when it isn't even close to equal.

I can't track down why its not good, and don't really trust the built in battery report or betterbatterystats. The only workaround I have found is to disable data connection and/or background sync (of google and exchange accounts). I don't even bother with Social Networking app sync as it would just kill battery way too fast. It can drain fast even after a fresh flash and no data restore/import. Deleting battery stats and recalibrating doesn't help much either.

Personally I love CM9 and give the devs lots of props for getting it to out so quickly this year, but the battery life leaves a lot to be desired. If it weren't for chargers at home, work, in the car, and the 1800mah battery I'd be running a TW ROM again, no doubt TPR.
[Epic 4G General] flastnoles11:
Gotta remember that our phones aren't really meant to run ics... ics uses way more resources and that's why all the ics roms don't get as good of battery as tw roms... I still get 3 hours screen on time out of cm9... tw roms I get 4, so its not a huge difference
