it might result from other things, that are not kernel but userspace.

what benchmark values did you get on other (maybe sense roms?), and what on this?
[HTC One X] faidz85:
Roughly 4.3k on quadrant...usually 5.3k using franco kernel on sense rom

also, 9k antutu vs 11k with franco's

Not that it matters that much though ;)
[HTC One X] tbalden:
ok, thanks for the detailed report. i was expecting something like that. Hopefully it might get better. i think its related to userspace libs.
[HTC One X] irharrier:
experiencing a hard time to charge the battery :D

it is just taking toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo long for battery to fill up !!!

anyone else experiencing the same?!
[HTC One X] crescal:
Just for curiosity, does the cm9 kernel have UV-ed the CPU? Since I felt the phone is cooler but I am sure if it was a placebo.
[HTC One X] 13pointseven:
Is it possible to repack this kernel with faux123 to enable UV to try get a little more life until drain is fixed?
[HTC One X] Basil3:
Regarding the battery, just give it a couple of cycles. Mine took ages to charge, stopped at 65%, then stayed at 65% for quite a while when taking it off charge. Back to normal after a full charge overnight though.
[HTC One X] jonas2295:
remove as banner is done :D
[HTC One X] ShyamSasi:
Yup I too think the same because i'm running the ROM vanilla so less chance for any third party apps to cause battery drain.
[HTC One X] tbalden:
could you please install CPUSpy and drop in a screenshot of it? i'd like to see the deepsleep part when drain is present.

here it sleeps like a baby, vanilla. I let it settle on first install/adding apps from backup, then reboot, no issues. :confused:
[HTC One X] ShyamSasi:
What is your stand by battery usage?
[HTC One X] tbalden:
You can see some of the standby times before I was charging some. Nothing too bad or too good. But no massive drain here. (I'm using custom theme before someone asks lol)
[HTC One X] irharrier:
gave up already

I couldn't stand massive battery drain + heat.

charmeleon works much much better in terms of battery + heat(almost no heat in normal use)
[HTC One X] tbalden:
Interesting , I'd like to know what gives. :rolleyes: nothing like that here
[HTC One X] irharrier:
what?!!!!!!!!!!!!

what gives what?!!!

don't tell me that you are upset because I am not happy with an ALPHA version.

cm9 is wonderful ,no doubt about it but this ALPHA version have serious battery and heat issues
[HTC One X] tbalden:
Hey, don't get me wrong. I just wish I had same issue here. Anyway we are looking at alternatives. Alpha 2 in the works with vlad's camcorder fix and new kernel
[HTC One X] krarvind:
@tbalden: camcorder fix works according to vlad, tested it on mine.
[HTC One X] vickysud:
LED turning green when getting to 90% charged is not a bug but a safety measure implemented by HTC by default.
[HTC One X] bassmadrigal:
My LED has been functioning normally today, but I am sad to say that I have to leave the S2W camp for now. Today I had 4 SOD issues requiring a super long-press of the power button to reboot the phone. I will continue to try the S2W in future kernel releases, but it seems that B1 has been the most troublesome so far (in the past I might have a SOD issue every few days, but never this many this quick).

As always, tbalden and other involved devs, great work on this ROM. This is what the HOX should've been shipped with, not that Sense crap. Can't wait to see us get official status, and I can't wait for some eventual CM10 builds.
[HTC One X] H-KaN:
I have the green led all the time while charging plus I get red led when getting messages. I don't think it's meant like this by htc.

I got some more weird things going on. I will report later.

just a headsup, camera issue is found, its a recent upstream patch that causes camera issues.

i'm building a new beta-2 with a fix for now and will submit a patch to gerrit as well
[HTC One X] flunk86:
im using faux's kernel from here http://d-h.st/Pkw

no issue so far & great battery life (9h 25m 50s on battery):silly:
[HTC One X] tbalden:
ROM updated to beta-2

Changelog:

- Synced repo to CM upstream (jul/11)

- Fixes recent camera/3rd party cam issues found in beta-1

- Adds camera ISO level setting into detailed settings of Camera app

- improved camera jpeg quality with less compression

No wipe needed, only go into Manage Apps/All/Camera and wipe camera app data.

Boot.img didnt change from alpha-12/beta-1, no need to fastboot flash if upgrading from those.
[HTC One X] sibbor:
Thank you for beta 2. Would also like to thank you for fixing the Bluetooth issues I were having back in alpha 10. Since alpha 11/12 I'm able to stream music and make calls via A2DP within my car.

Good work with this ROM! Keep it up.
[HTC One X] omiks3:
Alright found out that to flush DNS you just reboot lol. But still hasn't fixed it. Will try fresh install on the weekend as I have no time. Thanks for your help

[HTC One X] vickysud:
do i need to do any WIPE stuff ? just installing the ROM n gaps ? and do i need to reflash the kernel ?
[HTC One X] mattman83:
If you read the post where tbalden announced beta2, all of these questions are answered. I don't want to be an ass, but sometimes people just need to learn to look/think for themselves.

Must have been the cause of the camera issue in beta 1, that could explain why it was removed.

Does stock CM9 on other devices contain burst ?

For those who've used both, have you guys had better experiences with stock kernel or faux? I've been running faux and getting "OK" battery life and some weird 3G behaviour, wondering if anyone has had the same on either kernel.

[HTC One X] H-KaN:
I didn't try any other cm aosp based rom. Just this and sense based. And on sense based roms I can download the game. On cm not. On my gs2 times it had something to do with the build.prop we once talked about. I tried to change a few stuff on it compared to the sense build.prop but didn't work. If you want I can upload the build.prop from arhd one which I compared with this one.

[HTC One X] cgmorris89:
Thought I'd give this a whirl as I'd not given CM9 a chance yet on my One X - some insane amount of battery drain though :confused:

It dropped from 100% to 87% in 9m 52s with screen using 75% of the battery (only 7m 28s screen on)

Anybody got any ideas what the problem may be?

I flashed the boot img without sweep2wake by the way, then erased cache...

Never experienced drain like this before though. Can't help but think I've missed something...
[HTC One X] hutzdani:
That is weird, however im running beta2 and the none s2w kernel also.

I have no drainage issues apart from the know wifi one, which is almost solved.

However I have ripped out a tone of junk that comes with this rom.

No news and weather / movie manager e.c.t and I only use sync when I need it ( toggling in power bar ) and screen set to auto, no widgets or live wallpapers.

Running a mostly black home screen helps and i removed trebuchet launcher and use launcher pro.

Back up your apps then make a factory reset re flash everything for this rom and restore the apps you need and remove everything you don't need or use to slim it down and see what happens alot of apps have background crap running that you can slim down because if your using your browser for most things like weather and social networks half the junk can go a cut down read writes / sends and recives and what ever background process they decide to run.
[HTC One X] cgmorris89:
I tried flashing again (including boot.img etc) and I got the same results...might do as you say and delete the stuff I wont use then reflash. It's just concerning that it seems to be the screen drawing so much power rather than a specific app...I'll have a play around...
[HTC One X] gaspo.sk:
Hi, when is this ROM going to be available on cyanogenmod website? Is it going to be official ROM? :confused:
[HTC One X] H-KaN:
For me it's almost the same. It seems to drain fast cause after full charge and maybe 20 min of using I lost over 10% BUT at the end of it I end up with 2-3 hours of screen on time. Just this morning with 70% battery using by the screen I ended up with 3 hours screen on. I don't know if it's any help but try it out till the battery is empty and check the screen on time again.

Unlikely that there with be an official CM9 for One X. But I think we can agree that an official CM10 with jellybean is on the way.
[HTC One X] jutley:
Guys don't forget when you flash a kernel you need to reset battery stats in recovery and give it a few days to settle you can't get insane battery life instantly.
[HTC One X] hutzdani:
Resetting battery stats does nothing it wont affect the drain of the battery with running apps. . . . when your phone hits 100% and counts down it will use that as its measure, thats the whole point in the 100% chart.

Resetting battery stats on a new kernel with 100% will drain the same as a phone at 100% with new kernel with out battery stats reset.

I have never reset battery stats on a new kernel install, apart from when im going from a new kernel base or a new ver of android.
[HTC One X] n3ocort3x:
@ battery drain

Give the battery at least 2 - 3 full charge / discharge cycles to settle down... dont flash an other kernel or rom in that time... u will see that this solves the issue ! It just needs a little bit of time!
[HTC One X] cgmorris89:
Guess I'll just wait for it all to equilibrate then :p thanks everybody.
[HTC One X] flunk86:
Im using faux..only had problem when retrieving mms..its need wifi connection too..
[HTC One X] cgmorris89:
I realise this issue refers to an older release, but is anybody getting this problem with the latest release? I unfortunately am :(
[HTC One X] bassmadrigal:
This is actually true for AMOLED screens as blacks don't require any light to light up the pixel (and very little for darker colors), for LCDs, the backlight is constantly lit no matter what is showing on the screen, so battery consumption will be the same pretty much all the time and will only vary based on the brightness of the screen.

Just an FYI :)
[HTC One X] endursa:
actually not entirely true, lcd does use a little more power on black compared to white, cause all the pixels have to be active in addition to the back light :)
[HTC One X] bassmadrigal:
True, but in comparison to AMOLED displaying different colors, the difference is negligible with LCD.

[HTC One X] jutley:
The camera still force closes when you restore default settings in camera settings why is this?

Most probably a bug. But it resets to defaults luckily.

[HTC One X] jutley:
That's not a problem with the rom what kernel are you drinking?
[HTC One X] vickysud:
2.6.39.4 without swipe2wake

this is my third full cycle i never see battery improving. can u recommend any good kernel having better battery pls

WTHi just switched on wifi n went to playstore updated an app 8mb file and 4%battery loss
[HTC One X] bassmadrigal:
My battery does really well with this ROM. Today, I left wifi on all day at work (no wifi connection for the most part and a few spots where it sees one, but I never connect), used 3G, had Bluetooth enabled ALL DAY, although, it was only used for about an hour of music playback (a test to see how well the battery performs with this), autosync enabled, and a widget on my desktop set to update every hour, and my battery was still 45% after my 12 hour shift and after I got home. So it seems unless i do some major gaming or screen-on time, my battery will easily last me a full day, even with keeping most things enabled.

I honestly don't know why your battery life is so bad. What are the steps you took to install the ROM? What all did you wipe? Did you restore anything?
[HTC One X] vickysud:
Cleared Wipe cache/delvick/factory

flashed kernel than instaled rom from the sd card / i dint restore any apps other than google apps there is nothing on my phone no games too

BTW what kernel are you using ?

mine is very bad if i dial a number n go back to homescreen i see 2% battery decrease

Guide me your steps how u installed the ROM i will reinstal it again
[HTC One X] qvert:
i don't know what you are all doing

if you got a lot of battery problems

do a fullwipe,

install the rom

install gapps

install the without sweep2wake kernel as the other one uses more battery for me

afterwards just install what you need

it's a good time to not install apps you never use :-)

tune your auto brightness settings,

i've got mine set to:

0 to 225 = brightness 1

226 to 320 = 40

321 to 1280 = 50

1281 to 2600 = 130

2601 to endless = 255

this gives you a lowlight screen inhouse and in darkness,

a midlight screen when there is some light shining on the device

and a very bright screen when outside

you can afterwards take a very easy look with battery monitor widget how much your device is using in idle

for me its 12mah with wlan active, 2g only

which means of 12 mah are correct i get 150h of standby time

a few other tips:

switch off wifi when not needes

switch 3g when you don't browse the web, when your phone is idling and just waiting for a mail or whatsapp, 2g is enough

switch on wifi if you have coverage, it saves more battery if you use it instead of using 3g

switch off bluetooh

switch of gps

edit:

btw go backup is a very nice tool to save all your apps you need

it even restores the market links

edit2:

watch your data consumption

if you've got an app which you normally not use but which uses a lot of data,

change the update intervall to a lower time or manually or think about uninstalling it

[HTC One X] cgmorris89:
It rarely drops below 4 bars where I've been since I flashed this ROM...O2 UK have been doing a lot of work on the system today though which could've affected that. It seems it's the screen that's sapping the battery though. I know that's the biggest drain pretty much all the time but it seems crazily high on this one. I'll wait a few days before commenting again on the battery life I think. Seems I'm not part of the majority.
[HTC One X] ozgreg:
I believe the battery drain everyone is posting about is the lack of the phone going into deep sleep. I seen this a few times in prior alphas then it went away, looks like it is back again most likely something to so with the recent camera issues..

Building these roms is really really difficult, it is a tribute to the team that they have gotten this far considering the mess HTC left this phone in..

Well done..

kernel

hey, guys what kernel you using?

best for battery and performance?

Im using Franco's-r12 but battery is awful lately.. im going to try the one with s2w and see how it fairs.. i just don't really like s2w (nice but wasteful on battery)

ive even tried eternity 3.4 and it all worked.. though it was too hot on standby...

any way what you guys think is the best one out?
[HTC One X] :
That's a problem with sweep 2 wake, not the ROM. Change to the non-s2w kernel to fix the problem.

How do you move to 2G for specific apps only?

I've run into a little problem. When connecting the USB cable from the phone to both the PC or power plug, it sometimes doesn't recognise it. I have to reboot the phone for it to connect to the PC/charge properly. Anyone else with this?

[HTC One X] bassmadrigal:
Just as a quick note, if you perform a Factory Reset/Data Wipe in the recovery, it wipes both the cache and data partitions (well, normally at least, I am not sure if the recovery can even touch the recovery partition since we have to erase it in fastboot) and it will also wipe dalvik cache and your .android_secure folder on the sdcard (where your apps are stored when using Android's app2sd).

So basically, it wipes everything on your phone except for two things, The first being your "sdcard" (or rather internal extended memory), and your system partition. I would try wiping the system partition and then reinstall CM and gapps.

I am currently using the non-s2w kernel due to the SOD issue, but I haven't noticed any difference in battery life. Both seem to work fine for me, and I almost always end up with over 50% left on my battery before I plug it in when I head to bed. Granted, I don't have some ridiculous screen-on time like some out there, but it is more than enough for me.

Currently, this had about an hour of screen-on time. Wifi was enabled the whole day, but only connected for about 4-5 hours. Bluetooth was enabled all day, but only connected for about an hour (and music was playing that whole hour over bluetooth). Had a few text messages, had about 10 minutes of phone calls, had constant facebook and Friendcaster notifications. I do not turn off 3G, Autosync, mobile data, etc. When I didn't keep bluetooth enabled constantly, I was usually above 60% battery by the time I went to bed.
