Hmm, ask your daughter again what did she do. Seems like repair job
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] decepticon:
No download mode either.

She says she was on Facebook and it shut down.

Going to try another battery tomorrow I am clueless as to the issue.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bored_stupid:
Hard bricked is when there is no life at all, not even when plugged in to a power socket. So all is not lost yet. Get hold of a USB jig from ebay, " £0:99p-£3:99p ". This hopefully will get you into download mode. Flash a recovery using Odin. You can then wipe cache/delvik cache. Or flash a new firmware. Instructions here:-

If your a dab hand at DIY, try making your own USB jig:-

Curious do you have any case on your phone. I have known people who have played games on the phone whilst it was charging which makes that bit more heat and then due to a case its acted like an insulator. Could have overheated possibly causing damage.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] norpan111:
Its like impossible to start the phone with charger plugged in..did you try to start it without it?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brianlee9293:
It seem like charger port liquid damaged, you can clean it with alcohol and toothbrush, if doesn't work then you need usb connector replace.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neerajganga:
If u see any display wen u connect the charger that means ur phone is not dead (Not Bricked)

try changing ur battery

also get a usb jig and try

it can get ur phone to download mode ....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] QLF:
Sounds like a USB jig is the way to go. Have had the same issue myself, and this was the only thing that worked to fix the issue.

I dunno if your link isn't showing up on my computer or if you accidentally left it off, but upon doing a google search in the last 24 hours, I can say this is news is TRUE :D in case anyone was wondering... how exciting, hope our awesome developers harp on this soon... although I don't hold out much hope for a CDMA version of the rom as there is no functional ICS rom based on Sony ICS leaks for r800x users yet... I'm just hoping that the reason verizon has not fixed the update to the 2.3.4 firmware is because they are planning and ICS release soon... but let's not kid ourselves, this is Verizon... anyway, exciting news none the less for the GSM r800s... you guys are lucky ;)
[HTC Rezound] prodroid1:
I Did read thru the threads and the some other forums too, found nothing similar but related, most of it on older radios than mine and few months old. I got my Rzound just 3 weeks back and since then i have observed

Data drops at random during active usage sessions (browsing sending Whatsapp...etc)

Data drops to 3G after 24-36 hours

if only recovers to 4G if rebooted or Airplane mode On/OFF

I had a t-shooting session with Version which i knew from start will be a bummer (this was while being on GB Stock)

Then I installed Leaked ICS hoping Radio upgrade will help, no luck same symptoms, sometimes data drop happens during active browsing and of-course I get page cannot be displayed

then i bumped in to the Scott's CleanROM website and as i wanted to get rid of Bloatware any how i did following

Unlocked Bootloader

install custom recovery (Amon RA)

installed Scott's CleanROM Standard

all peachy till 24 hours and then the phone went to 3G again reboot and back to 4G

if some can pitch in and give some inputs for the following

Does this seem a Hardware or software/radio drive issue

Any ideas what else can i try

should i just go back to stock and push for replacement ( still in 30 day limit hopefully will get a new handset not refub...)

Thanks for your inputs

hi, fixed your problem yet?
[Android Apps and Games] cscan:
A strange app is launched yesterday. It called SonicShare. It uses a new way to send files, contacts, urls, apk, links, ..... to neighbor devices. You do not need the wifi, bluetooth, gps, nor input anything likes ip, cloud link, email address, tel, id, contact list. In order to achieve a file transfer, the only thing you need is your friends just beside you, both open this app, select the file/item, and click the SEND button. The file will be passed to your friends' devices. Also it supports 1-to-n sharing, which means if you want to share somethings to 5 friends who besides you, just send once.

Please try and comment.

MR.cAN'T
[Android Apps and Games] MrBC:
Do you have a link?
[Android Apps and Games] MrBC:
No matter I found the link

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cantfactory.sonicshare

I take it you are the dev. Mind explaining some of the permissions?
[Android Apps and Games] Markuzy:
The description mentioned using a server via data to upload and download to.

Seems to use phone speakers and microphone for some kind of authentication measure as they recommended removing headsets and stopping music apps.

Sent from my GT-N7000 using Xparent ICS Blue Tapatalk 2
[Android Apps and Games] cscan:
Yes, this app uses speaker to broadcast a ultrasonic signal to neighbor devices to initiate the transfer. Thanks for your trying.
[Android Apps and Games] cscan:
For the permission, since it is able to transfer the contacts, web history, sms msg history and files in storage, it asks for granting the permission about them. And the server will keep your imea number and gmail account for preventing multiple registration. All communication between device and server will be encrypted. All uploaded file will also be encrypted in jpg image and remove from server after 30 min.

Hope you enjoy. Feel free to comment.

[HTC One X] DanteGR:
CW is not working correctly with ICS/Sense 4 atm bro.

Used to have the same results with it.

Try some other app/widget.
[HTC One X] ArmedandDangerous:
Use Battery Monitor Widget, much lighter on the battery.
[HTC One X] santroph:
No one has ever told me that before, and it is even used in the thread for better battery life in HTC One X.

So, I assumed it was working fine. I use it for a long time, since it was launched.

Do you know any other app that does something like it, logs the drain, that work?

Thanks.
[HTC One X] santroph:
NB:

- NOT all phones report accurate mA - Check app web-site for more information

- The app displays the % remaining, voltage and temperature data reported by Android OS

- HTC One X reports incorrect mA during standby, use mA corrections for better results

- Android battery stats have nothing to do with % calculations

Well at least this one says right upfront the problem, but what should be the mA corrections? Do we need to do some cal or is it just a checkbox? (I will install it right now of course, to find out)

Thanks, can't thank you in the button, it doesn't appear.

UPDATE: It is an option in the settings, correct mA report, and there we can choose HTC One X :D

If it is really as good as it looks to be, I'll buy the PRO version, thanks for the tip.
[HTC One X] ArmedandDangerous:
The updated versions already support the One X, been using it for weeks and idle drain reporting is working just fine :) The change log on the Play website and the change log on the Play app are different somehow. On the app it says it's fixed, and I can see proper drain on standby.
[HTC One X] BenPope:
Do you have huge battery drain or just an app that reports huge battery drain?

I noticed you didn't mention that the phone doesn't last long.

At 200-700mA drain, your 1850mAh battery would last 2.5 to 9 hours on standby.
[HTC One X] ArmedandDangerous:
You could also install Better Battery Stats (free for XDA users) and see what is causing the battery drain.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1179809
[HTC One X] santroph:
No, I have the drain, AND the app was not reporting good things too...

My battery today lasted only 5 hours.

I had only 2 hours of screen ON and also only 5 minutes in a game, the rest was normal/light use, like web surfing and facebook. NO heavy use like watching movies.

So, it is a lousy battery life, my HD2 does last way longer with a worse battery. Sure I do have a worse screen in there too, but this shouldn't be that bad.
[HTC One X] tadas_max:
Well my batery life is even worse. It was ok when i bought a phone. I am trying to relate to the latest update 129.401.11 . Today my standby was 8hrs18mins. Screen time 1hr40min. Out of those 8hrs, 5 i spent in flight mode. Its crazy!
[HTC One X] wintermute000:
do a full factory restore and only setup bare minimum apps to be sure you haven't gotten a rogue process/app

if that doesn't work return it pronto
[HTC One X] zekit:
i used to have huge drain from either goole maps, latitude or navigation after installing it from the forum which enables it for everyone (outside us) uninstalled it and it got fixed. if u have drain while the phone is idle it is an app issue, try factory reset, install one app at a time and see which one causes it.
[HTC One X] benjaminchia102:
Some apps e.g games like draw something.. have push notifications running at background.

The latest version of facebook drains battery like crazy.

There's a need to monitor what is installed in the phone. Especially apps that require to run background services and push notifications (Those apps drain battery life )
[HTC One X] tadas_max:
Well since it was working fine I did not install any new apps, didnt change any setting. I only sync gmail. I disabled everything else. Ill do factory reset anyway, maybe just recent OTA messed up my battery :)
[HTC One X] BenPope:
You both clearly have a problem. If you look at the battery stats graph, is it always awake? If so, you have an app that is preventing it from sleeping and need to find it.

Post this screen, as you can see, Awake and Screen on should, essentially, be the same.

[HTC One X] santroph:
Don't worry, nothing it keeping my phone awake.

With the new app for monitoring the phone mAh usage I can see that it is using about 16 to 25 mAh in idle (too much for my taste, used to be 3 - 5 in HD2) but not that bad.

But the thing is, just wake up the phone and than BAM, 500-900 usage, WITH THE SCREEN BACKLIGHT SET TO MINIMUM :@

As u can see in one of the pics the phone looses 3% in just 3 minutes. So it can only be awake for 1 hour? common...

I'll install a process monitoring app, but I don't have that much hope...

Several pictures for your delight of my problem :)

Please help :| ;)
[HTC One X] rumblefish73:
My HOX lasted 25 hours the day before the latest FW Update. Today it was on 9% after 10 hours and the stats told me that the screen was on for 7 hours. The screen was off and the phone was in airplane mode over night and drained over 60% of battery live.
[HTC One X] santroph:
As far as I could tell, the WiFi is consuming too much of the battery. I don't know why but yesterday my WiFi turned off during the night (even if set to never turn off in the settings) and the drain got from 25mAh in idle to 4 mAh when just using 3g.

After waking WiFi again the drain got back to 22.

Can anyone confirm?
[HTC One X] Kickasskev:
My battery is Awesome
[HTC One X] santroph:
I wonder why is that everytime someone has a problem, there are those people who just come into the thread to say "I don't have it!" or "My battery is awesome!" and don't contribute to anything in the thread. Well...

I have since seen that my problem must be related with something in the system itself.

Without any data available (cell phone for voice calls ON but data disabled, wifi off and 3g off) the phone consumes only 3 to 4 mAh.

With 3g on, it goes to 12-15 mAh, and with wi-fi on it jumps to 20-25 mAh.

So it is probably something using the data, BUT it doesn't appear in the data usage :\

I'm now with control panel app monitoring everything, will report back.
[HTC One X] santroph:
BTW your battery is not awesome, since is REALLY easy to get your values, just disabling the wifi and 3g radios, and I can get better values than you can.

We can clearly see that you only used 2% of anything that uses data, you have NO data on, (wifi or 3g) and the biggest part is voice calls. So don't brag about something that is really ****ty.

If I wanted to, I could just get by with edge voice only and get 10 days of talk time/play music with this phone, but this is a SMARTPHONE and should be used as such.

My HD2 gets by a full day usage with wi-fi and 3g radios ON full time and several things syncing at the same time all the time with push notifications. Twitter, facebook, whatsapp, gmail, normal mail, everything else in two google accounts. So I don't see why a 2,5 years newer phone shouldn't do it.

Try it, show it, and than brag about it if you can. With that pic, you are just fooling yourself.
[HTC One X] nikzDHD:
Battery on 3g is poor. I can barely just go through a working day and I've been through a number of battery cycles and on 1.2 9. Light usage but heavy drain none the less. Most probably due to the radio and my poor signal.

Today's results so far. This includes streaming audio via bluetooth. Calls, sms, whatspp, few mins of temple run, browsing the Web, push Gmail and weather syncing. also checking exchange email.

Screen on time is only 1 hour, on auto brightness.

My opinion on 1.2.8 battery life was better.
[HTC One X] santroph:
I'm using 1.29.401.11 but with old Hboot and Old radio (1.29.401.7) since I don't want to update for now because of probable S-OFF Hboot problems.

I must say that when I had 1.28 everything was better also, I'm thinking of going back to test, just waiting for some 3 to 4 cycles to see if things get better, or if 1.32 gets out.
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
Battery life varies. So if one person's sucks and another's is fantastic, assuming it's not a h/w fault, it comes down to individual usage.

1) Wireless network strength - The phone constantly polling for a signal in weak coverage areas is going to drain the battery more. And it's useless to compare different phones in different parts of the world on different networks.

2) Fast Dormancy - It's enabled by default to save battery and allows the phone to idle at 2/3G and kick-up to HSPA+ when needed for data transmission. If used on a network that doesn't support FD, it drains the battery rather than preserving it.

3) Apps and Sync - Everyone's usage is different and excluding network and h/w issues this is the most likely cause of different battery performance between devices

4) Memory managers, task killers, app freezers - They've been proven to do more harm than good as it relates to battery life. Within the HTC framework apps are co-dependent. So killing or freezing a process another app is dependent on will put it in a loop trying to restart the now dead and unavailable process.

One or all of these are what's creating "abysmal" vs. "fantastic" battery life. If you hard reset your phone and it's getting bad battery life it's either the network or the device itself. If its fine and you start loading apps or killing tasks it's what you're doing to the phone, not the phone itself.

I've never been on a forum on XDA that didn't have one or more of these threads going perpetually.
[HTC One X] santroph:
Just to be clear, I've NEVER talked about killing tasks, I'm not trying to solve my problem by doing it, I know better than that.

If I were to do something against an app, it would be to uninstall it. I know that several HTC services are linked, I didn't touch any sense or htc services. Just didn't create any HTC account.

I have now turned any, and I mean ANY syncing to test, but left the radios ON, and the results are the same. Same high leakage.

The things were not like that before 1.29.XXX.XX, the use was good letting wifi ON all the time.

I'm just using the apps mentioned in the first post to MONITOR things, and if I can get some news out of them, do something with it.

About the signal strength, I'm at about 1 to 9 feet from my router most of the time, which is a good one and I liv3 about 50 meters (100ft) from an antenna from my operator (all of the operators to tell the truth), and within 600m radius(1/3 mile) of another 3 antennas. So I get full signal everywhere at my home, and barely get out of HSPA, sometimes, rarely, I get 3g (UMTS).

About the syncing, I know, and have stated that in the first post. But since HD2 does it, I see no reason to One X do it too ;)

I have hard reset and factory reset my phone already, all of the tries going back to 1.29.401.7 or 11 and they are bad.

BTW you probably didn't read the whole thread and posted here already. I have stated that NO APP or SERVICE is showing up in DATA USE as asking for wi-fi or 3G data. So it is apparently just the radios use that's draining the battery, and this is bad.

Sorry for the harsh tone, i'm getting pissed of with this problem.

Thanks for trying to help.

I had issues when I first got mine lasted around 8hrs now it lasts a good 21+.
[HTC One X] santroph:
And what did you do? Just kept on using it?

This is probably a "new phone" effect :)

When we get a new phone we use it a lot, and after the "new phone" effect passes and we get to normal use, things get better ;) (that's not my case now, i'm just trying to use it normally)

But I can be wrong also, share your thoughts please.
[HTC One X] gouldy26:
1.29 is deffo worse for battery, i did a simple test, on 1.28 i got a 2hr YouTube video, and i played it until it finished then restarted it straight away, doing that from 100% battery till it turned of, i got 4 hrs and 14 mins screen time

now on 1.29 same YouTube video with same brightness only gets me 3 hrs 5 mins

now that's a massive difference, and i done the test twice on 1.29 as i was sure it couldn't be so much less but it was the same both tests

how can i go back to 1.28
[HTC One X] Vandal4125:
Strange then that my Nokia N8 is on 62% battery after a full day of work, with about +-2hrs of calls, +-25mins of gps, couple pictures with the 12MP camera, and browsing a few sites and checking emails. Sure the N8 my not be balls to the wall fast like the One X, but it's still considered a smartphone and I get easy 2 days of proper usage out of it.

I find the battery stats thread hilarious in this section of guys who put up their stats claiming the battery is awesome when 20-30% of their AWESOME battery life was with the phone acting as a paperweight. I bought a One X last Saturday and sold it yesterday. I can't have a phone that doesn't even last me a working day. Take it off the charger at 6am and by 1-2pm its already at 20% with auto brightness etc etc. I had no build quality errors with my One X, my battery stats seem'd to be in line with the people who actually used the phone.

The GPS voice navigation seems to whisper directions to you and the 'loudspeaker' is laughable. With the phone in my pocket, if I was walking around, in a mall or the street, I could not hear it ring at all.

Another quite shocking thing I noticed about the One X is, I had the phone on mains power charger and the battery was at 49%, I played a tegra 3 game for about 10mins and after I was complete the battery was something like 45%. Which means this phone can drain battery quicker then the charger can charge it ? O_o

It was my first android phone and while certain aspects were great at the end of the day, as a CELLPHONE which is what is should be first and foremost it fails. I'm not trying to bash the phone, nor am I some sort of fan boy to any particular make/operating system. I had high hopes for this one, after watching reviews, but once I got it I thought something might be wrong, but then I found this place and I see everyone who USES the phone has the same problem with the poor battery.
[HTC One X] Kickasskev:
So
[HTC One X] Basil3:
Sounds like you did the right thing. You clearly like your nokia, so stick with it.

By the way, to get your phone down to 20% by 1 or 2pm, you would have to have been on your phone for over 3 hours. If I was to spend half an hour on my phone, go to work, spend another hour or so on the phone and come back after 8 hours, I would have at least 50% battery life left.

It sounds to me like your working day involves a lot of time spent on your phone, or you have abnormally low battery life. If I had an office job, I would just have my phone on charge at work anyway...it's not a big deal.
[HTC One X] BarryH_GEG:
Well, if your Nokia had a 4.7" display pushing 312PPI along with a quad-core processor driving it, I'd imagine it would perform pretty similarly. It's like trading in a M-B E350 for an E63 AMG and being shocked they don't get the same gas mileage. You want big and powerful? It comes at a price. And on web browsing and voice calls the SGS3 isn't markedly better so you're not going to find the performance you're looking for on other upcoming high-end phones. At least not until battery technology changes. Used the same way, my One X gets about 10-15% less battery life than my i9100. I consider that more than acceptable considering their feature differences.
