Battery Life on 4.1.2?

I just flashed 4.1.2, and I've found battery drain to be a common issue. Both across AOKP and CM.

Is this some sort of issue with the latest 4.1.2 builds?

I use all my ROMs with the awesome NCX kernel. Earlier (uptil 4.1), I used to get 24 hours of juice from my fully charged battery very easily. Nowadays (after flashing up to 4.1.2), I'm lucky if my phone stays alive for 12 hours.

Android OS seems to keep the phone awake for almost 2 hours on an average charge cycle.

Any ideas? I'd do anything to get 4.1.2 running with more battery power. I can't live without the single finger expandable notifications :(
[HTC One X] mattman83:
I had problems with other kernels since 4.1.2 also, just went back to stock CM kernel which is fine other than occasional SOD.

[HTC One X] bassmadrigal:
The values that he provided are for the "screen" section. On the left side are the ranges of the light sensor (which you can see the value at the top - the left number being the averaged result, and the right one being the value at that exact moment... it uses the left value for your brightness level).

So, the range is what you see in your left two columns (you can change the lower number, but the upper one will be one less than the lower number the next level up). The screen is the value for the brightness of the screen, and the ranges are from 10-255 (10 being the lowest, and 255 being the highest). The last one is for your button lights. I believe 0 is off, and 60 is on (there is no difference in brightness).

Hope I cleared this up rather than make it more confusing :)
[HTC One X] Codiox:
Guys, use the bricked kernel. You will get 48h battery time :) (at least i got it)

Instagram Crashes on the latest nightly when taking a picture...is it something to do with the kernel? :S
[HTC One X] lrbpereira:
Can you send me the icon pack please?
[HTC One X] Phezex:
can u upload the repacked boot.img pls?
[HTC One X] samsaBEAR:
Just a quick question, since the update to 4.1.2, every time I update to the latest nightly it runs through the 'Android is upgrading' pop up, how comes it's only started to come up in every nightly now, whereas before it didn't?
[HTC One X] thegh0sts:
does CM10 require a separate kernel install like i've seen done by some of the viperX rom users?
[HTC One X] mattman83:
I can garantee it always happened, you probably just didn't notice it before. It's rebuilding the dalvik cache for anything that updated.

Yes, it's a limitation of the phone (we don't have proper bootloader unlock) so you'll need to do this with all roms.

M.
[HTC One X] bassmadrigal:
No need to repack the bricked or AOSP-based ncx kernels (at least for now). Just download the kernel and modules, use fastboot to flash the kernel and flash the modules in recovery :)
[HTC One X] thegh0sts:
like every time you flash a rom?

what kernel do i need and where can i get the instructions?
[HTC One X] bassmadrigal:
The kernel needs to be flashed every time there is a kernel change. Unfortunately, this isn't always the easiest thing to know.

There is the stock CM kernel within the zip file of the ROM, just extract that and flash it through fastboot.

If you use a 3rd-party kernel, you never need to reflash the kernel when you update CM, but you will always need to reflash the modules.
[HTC One X] thegh0sts:
so is the kernel the boot.img file or is it something totally different?
[HTC One X] RedSkyRoad:
Thanx for the informative post - I leaned a few things I did not know about the screen shot - one thing still eludes me though : The 2nd, 3rd and 4th rows of the screen column (15, 20 & 20) I can't set to 10. It only takes 20 as minimum, though... Any ideas?

Btw, is it a mission to setup so I can do my own builds as well?
[HTC One X] argetlam1:
Right. Even I was on the default CM kernel. But what ruined it for me was the fact that the screen would take ages to turn up and sometimes freeze. Also, that lag while playing music on the interactive governor!!!! Ouch! Anyhow, the battery wasn't much better even with the CM kernel.

I love the 4.1.2 but I'll be forced to move back to an older version unless someone can provide me some pointers here.
[HTC One X] thegh0sts:
which kernels are compatible with CM10?
[HTC One X] bassmadrigal:
I'm not sure why that wouldn't work, but you could just change your ranges so you only need to set one range to be at 10 brightness. You could either redo all of them, or get rid of a few (by using the "Set number of levels" button at the bottom of the page). If you get rid of a few, make sure you either take a screenshot of your values or write them down, because I am not sure which ones will be removed.

As for getting a build environment set up, I haven't actually done it, so I can't fully comment on it, but I know the suggested build environment is Ubuntu (this is probably why I haven't tried, I am a Slackware guy myself). But on the CM wiki site, they do cover compiling your own version. While they don't have a specific version for our HOX, they do have one for the HOXL, so you should be able to just replace any instances of evita with endeavoru.

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_One_XL:_Compile_CyanogenMod_(Linux)
[HTC One X] Chezbel:
If you try to edit the values manually you will see that the prompt says you must enter a value betwee 20 and 255. The only way I know of to enter a smaller value is by changing the file that was mentioned a few pages ago and then including that in the ROM when it is flashed. Even then I really don't know how values below 20 are handled, perhaps they are treated the same as 20?
[HTC One X] mattman83:
Anything that mentions it is suitable for AOSP roms. NCX and Bricked are the most popular, though there are probably others that work too.

Yep, the boot.img is what you want. When you download CM10 it will always be inside the zip file... just pull it out and flash it via fastboot. It is best to do this every time you update.

M.
[HTC One X] thegh0sts:
i am assuming the use of a separate boot.img is dependent on the HBOOT version? I checked my HOX's HBOOT version and it's v1.12...can you recommend any further actions i need/can take before flashing CM10? i was told that i only needed the modified boot.img (like mdeejay's version earlier in the thread) if the HBOOT was v1.23 to v.128 but my HBOOT is neither.
[HTC One X] mattman83:
1.23 and 1.28 are the only "difficult" hboots. Anything lower than that is all fine to run on the standard boot.img. I still use hboot 0.43 :D and all good on the included kernel.

M.
[HTC One X] wikie:
face unlock is still not working: (
[HTC One X] thegh0sts:
cool, i don't know how my hboot got upped to 1.12 probably when i reverted to the official RUU.
[HTC One X] mattman83:
Yeah that'll do it. RUU and OTA will always flash a HBOOT as well.

[HTC One X] Codiox:
No need for repack for the bricked kernel, just Flash it ;)

Hey,

The WiFi strength has always been poor on the nightlies but before it was at least bearable, a few days ago its gotten even worse. Has the CM9 nightly / another ROM got a fix for this?
[HTC One X] wikie:
but not with the nightly from yesterday and today, it's all but only with the nightly from 18
[HTC One X] Codiox:
oh okay, sorry. im on 18th. doesnt see any benefit in the changelog to go higher then 18....
[HTC One X] RedSkyRoad:
Could be your router. Never had wifi issues...
[HTC One X] wietse1988:
Did a post on the bricked aosp thread. About a blue tooth issue. Show p said it probably has to do with the rom, and not with the kernel. So I post my issue over here.

The issue is, when I play music over over blue tooth. I first have to change the music volume, after I changed volume, the music sound is there, when I didn't change the music volume, the phone is playing the me music, only I can't hear anything. I would love to see this issue fixed. It's starting to get a little annoying.

Anything else works perfect! Really love this rom!
[HTC One X] Codiox:
im using the samsung bluetooth hs-3000 with CM10 18th Nightly and the Bricked Kernel to play my music, and never got any issues. with the ARHD Sense Rom i got huge connectivity problems (every step the music interrupts). So i guess you havent done a clean flash. just do a full wipe / factoryreset and flash everything again and everything should work fine.
[HTC One X] bassmadrigal:
I have to second Codiox's reply. Bluetooth streaming has been working fine for me with both my car and a little cheap bluetooth receiver. I never have to adjust volumes when I start it (unless I had previously lowered the volume while playing a game or something).

Try doing a Factory Reset and see if the issue still occurs.
[HTC One X] crslaytor:
Hi guys is it possible to flash this rom on phone which CID id is not in the list ?My Hboot wont update ... shoud I flash th boot.img which is inside the rom archive to be able to update my Hboot ?

thanks and sorry for the stupid question
[HTC One X] jamm513:
what do you recommend guys to this rom: faux or Bricked?
[HTC One X] r0cafella:
Don't worry about the question, If you have Hboot which is 0.9x you can flash with the boot.img provided in the zip file.

If you have a 1.xx Hboot you will need the modded boot.img.
[HTC One X] thegh0sts:
really? i was told that 1.12 was ok to use the standard boot.img!

plus i have CM10 nightlies 23-10-2012 ROM installed and running smoothly...i always keep forgetting to clear the dalvik cache :p
[HTC One X] crslaytor:
So where can I find modded boot.img then ? my hboot is 1.12...
[HTC One X] Codiox:
i recommend Bricked Kernel for CM10. great performance and battery.

There is a problem with some devices (not just HOX) that the touchscreen gets unresponsive while plugged in to charge. With Bricked Kernel this problem is gone for me.
[HTC One X] r0cafella:
Try and flash it with stock boot.img if you bootloop then you know you need the modded one :D
[HTC One X] thegh0sts:
dude, my HOX is on HBOOT v1.12 and i installed it fine with the pre-packaged boot.img. it's only 1.23 and 1.28 that need the modded boot.img.

i didn't get a boot loop though i did get stuck on the splash screen cos i had forgotten to clear the dalvik cache of all things but now it's loaded and running nicely.
[HTC One X] crslaytor:
OK thanks guys I will try with the one inside the archive
[HTC One X] thegh0sts:
you'll be fine crslaytor. just remember to wipe the phone and clear your caches (once in fastboot mode and the dalvik cache).
[HTC One X] Michealtbh:
1.12 is fine, this rom will work as is with it.

1.13+ requires modified boot.img
[HTC One X] crslaytor:
I found the problem... the thing is that htc driver cant be installed properly on windows 8 ... that's why I have failed to install hboot before...cant detect my phone ...
[HTC One X] thegh0sts:

[HTC One X] tiho5:
bricked kernel

I have 1.12 hboot. I am using the boot.img from the ROM zip.

But my phone has SODs when left charging and I cant switch it back on. I have to reboot it manually every time.

Can I use bricked kernel with this 1.12 hboot or bricked kernel only works if my hboot 1.23 or 1.28?
[HTC One X] rawdealer:
You can use bricked or ncx kernel without repacking :) just flash modules ;)
[HTC One X] thegh0sts:
can you get it into fastboot?
[HTC One X] tiho5:
What do you mean? I dont understand.
[HTC One X] seadersn:
i think he meant "are you able to boot the device in hboot -> fastboot usb mode?"
[HTC One X] rcfreak07:
Hi guys, just wanted to try CM10 on the HOX today so I flashed boot.img then made a full wipe, install ROM + gapps in recovery and rebooted. But the phone is always stuck at the white HTC quietly brilliant logo and wont boot up completely. What did I wrong?

BTW: I updated before to AndroidRevolutionHD 11 JB by using the JellyBeanFWScript and this works and booted up.
[HTC One X] Chezbel:
Your signature says you have hboot 1.28, so you need to use the boot.img that was posted here. This has been mentioned many times in this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32486421&postcount=7308
[HTC One X] tiho5:
Thank you guys! I have it running already I hope I get rid of the SODs now.
[HTC One X] rcfreak07:
Okay thank you. I read that but I though this was fixed with newer nightlies :P But I can flash ncx or bricked afterwards?
[HTC One X] Chezbel:
You can use Bricked, but you need to repack the kernel. You can either do it yourself if you know how or you can use this very cool online tool

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1815607

The source boot.img is the one I mentioned in my previous post and the kernel image is the boot.img from the Bricked kernel.

You will still need to flash the Bricked modules.
[HTC One X] rcfreak07:
Okay everything went well. Very smooth and fast :P Better than any Sense ROM. BUT Camera LED is not working. In the OP it is not mentioned so is this a problem of mine or do I need a fix ?
[HTC One X] RedSkyRoad:
You mean the "flash"? It does not work with low battery...
[HTC One X] rcfreak07:
Yes the flash. Oh ok battery is on 18% will try again later :P
[HTC One X] tiho5:
It's checking for email only on screen on.

I want it to keep checking all the time. I have enabled "keep Wi-Fi on during sleep", but it never checks for emails when screen is off. How to make this work?
[HTC One X] nicewise:
I just did a full wipe (data, cache, davlik) and installed the newest nightly. All I did was download maps and install it. No Titanium restore of any kind. No alternate keyboards. And boom, Navigation still crashes.

I am going to try a sense rom next, anybody have any other suggestions? I see folks with this problem on the unofficial thread too. Maddening. Thanks!

:eek:
[HTC One X] ultrawires:
Did you flash gapps?
[HTC One X] thegh0sts:
for some reason the battery is draining really quickly after flashing the HOX to CM10.

trying to flat the battery again to do a calibration.
[HTC One X] Zorachus:
Cooke you please provide me a link for that download version. I think he includes brik kernel too ? Thanks.

i will do an own thread with this version soon. there will be weekly updates ;)
[HTC One X] samsaBEAR:
So I've hit a problem. I went to install the latest nightly, that went well. I then reinstalled the bricked kernel (both through Recovery) and flashing the boot.img separately and now my phone won't boot up. It gets stuck on the HTC screen, I can access the bootloader, but I when I go down to Recovery, it reboots, shows the CWM screen for literally a second then reboots. What the hell have I managed to do?

Edit: Should also say, I tried factory resetting it, as I have (albeit older) backups on my PC, but that did the same as trying to get into Recovery.
[HTC One X] thegh0sts:
did you wipe the dalvik cache?
[HTC One X] samsaBEAR:
I forgot to do them before installing the nightly, so I did it after and then reinstalled the nightly. I have a feeling this was the wrong thing to do, and I should have just restored from my backup and started all over again.
[HTC One X] seadersn:
fastboot erase cache may be the magic words, possibly...
[HTC One X] samsaBEAR:
You are a god damn lifesaver, thank you so much! I really wish I had my head wrapped around all this fastboot stuff, I rooted my phone using an all-in-one tool, so I've never touched it until I decided to try a new kernel.
[HTC One X] Zorachus:
Thanks, so this includes the "brick" kernel too installed by default built into this ROM ?
[HTC One X] thegh0sts:
i got stuck on splash and wiping the dalvik cache cleared it up and it booted nicely.
[HTC One X] RedSkyRoad:
Whoohooo :)
[HTC One X] ozgreg:
Looks like this ROM is coming along very nicely ;) I only have one SOD this week which I agree is one too many but I can give with it..

I have however uncovered a new issues which has occurred in the last few nightlys. When I am using the Google Car Dock with the phone in the cradle and taking a call the call screen loses focus and the cardock main screen returns then about a second later the call screen regains focus and so on switching back and forward between the two screens.. I seen something like this before with the proximity sensor and I see in the build logs that some logic has been added to lock screens after the call has ended and I wonder if this is causing this behavior..

Anyone else experiencing this??
[HTC One X] thegh0sts:
how are people's battery life with CM10? after flashing it to CM10 it chewed through a lot of the charge.
[HTC One X] RedSkyRoad:
With Bricked kernel and UV of -75 I get 16h with 3h+ screen on time...
[HTC One X] thegh0sts:
do you recommend the bricked kernel over the stock CM10 kernel?

[HTC One X] Youngunn2008:
Am considering a hox for my next device because of the excellent camera but hate sense... that being said how well does camera do on cm10? How is battery as well, if you dont mind.
[HTC One X] span_01:
Battery is doing great in my opinion but the camera is close to useless. Images are oversaturated. This makes landscape and nature pictures look beautiful but any picture of an actual person will make them look red, angry and blown out.
[HTC One X] theDroidfanatic:
I disagree, the camera is epic.

Here are a few pictures I took, no issues (not full res tho, xda issue)
[HTC One X] eyosen:
DELETED.

I was informed that it was a test build and that's why it wasn't posted here. Those of you who downloaded from the link I posted before, beware.
[HTC One X] magic_android:
I posted my thoughts on the AOSP camera app vs the Sense camera app on the One X here.

I don't think the AOSP camera can compare to the Sense camera in any way really. @thedroidfanatic, those pics are cool but pics from the Sense camera don't have anywhere near as much noise as those pics do. The Sense camera can still produce some noisy pics that aren't so great but its pictures are generally better in terms colour.

The main thing putting me off from the AOSP camera is that it's slower than the Sense camera. It opens up a bit slower, it takes a few seconds to switch between photo and video modes, it takes longer to focus (if it manages to focus) and panorama shots take forever to compose.

That said, the AOSP camera is definitely still usable (and can still take great pics) but you just won't be consistently getting the best from your phone's camera with it.

This is just my opinion though and i do not intend to upset anyone with it.
[HTC One X] saj2001ind:
is the status bar transparency working fine on this rom ?
[HTC One X] seadersn:
it's really sad and remarkable, that one has to apologize for his opinion nowadays :( but ppls are different, and it's good that it is this way :) nevertheless: "vibrations" over here sometimes are really strange O_o :D
[HTC One X] span_01:
I agree with you completely. Thank you for your post.

Perhaps calling the camera "useless" was being too harsh. It is useful for quick snaps which do not feature people. I am upset with the camera since all my pictures from this summer which contains family and friends are useless since they all have clearly distinct red tones to their skin.
[HTC One X] Jimmeh83:
One thing I've noticed with the stock sense rom, wifi sleeps during quiet hours to save battery. I'm sure someone has picked up on that (maybe in the preceding 807 pages, sorry if that's the case) thought it was worth mentioning just in case.
[HTC One X] chronicbint:
Battery is adequate, stock kernel
[HTC One X] theDroidfanatic:
I agree, but saying that the AOSP camera is completely useless, is wrong.

One more thing, Ill admit it, those pictures were from a Sense Camera :P I was just telling that guy the the HOX has decent pics.

So you see, its all placebo, you thought these are from an AOSP camera and you said they were worse, whereas they were from an Sense camera, so both are good :P

But yes, the AOSP camera's a bit slower.
[HTC One X] Zorachus:
Never checked this before, but by default it sets Font to Large. I set back to Normal, and everything looks much better.
[HTC One X] thegh0sts:
what version of CM10 are you using with the bricked 0.7 kernel?

EDIT: running CM10 nightly 24-10-2012 and i wanna know if it's ok to run it with the bricked 0.7 kernel.

also, does CM10 allow for undervolting in the kernel like the bricked kernel?
[HTC One X] RedSkyRoad:
Correct in assuming that RC means the final no. 23 is on its way still?

Btw, I see a lot of people are starting to mention their CID numbers in their signatures.. What does it mean if my phone has none?
[HTC One X] seadersn:
@zorachus: large font in my build = normal font in official build ;) so there are two possibilities for even smaller text. i used to use font scale = 0.8 personally, which is equal with small in my build.

It's not that I don't know how to get it... I don't HAVE a CID...

There was a fastboot command, I forgot it, check the maXimus OP, it says there. You cannot have 'none' CID.

First opinion is that CM10 is great on a HTC one X!

only 2 things

1: I don't have 3g connection at all. (can call send text messages but have no internet connection)

2: Why is the camera limited to 5mp ?
[HTC One X] tiho5:
I switched to bricked kernel too. Nighntly 18-10-2012.

No sod-s any more when screen is off. Especially if charging but even when not.

With bricked everything's working and stable.

But I notice that the phone is not so snappy any more. Not so quick and responsive when I push it too much. And I like to push it:)

It is still very good, but somehow not the same feeling.

So I think that the best boot.img and kernel are the ones in the Rom.zip. although not yet stable, they have always been best for performance. I am hoping and waiting for a stable one. It's going to happen soon I feel, as this Rom is getting better and better now.

---------- Post added at 11:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:43 PM ----------

When on sense Rom I have a Car app. Are you talking about the same? It auto starts when I put the phone in my car holder. I wanted to ask what can use with the CM 10 that works in the same way: auto starts and also auto switches on the Bluetooth.

Please, give me a link. Will be much appreciated.

Thanks!
[HTC One X] yaron316:
Guys i have a general question:

When i power on the screen, it takes a second or two where the screen brightness is very low, and after that it shows up normally.

I experienced it with all aosp roms.

Is that a general issue? Any way around it, to make it turn on with full brightness immediately ?

Thanks in advance :)
