so as it may be known, i came from an iPhone 4S and traded that for an HTC One X, i've had it for a little over a week and i really like it a lot BUT (you knew that was coming i think..) the battery is below par, i get about 3, on a real good day 4 hours of usage from a full charge. i only auto sync mail, screen is on 25% (also tried auto for a few days), when at home it's connected to WiFi, data off and when i go out the other way around, GPS and Bluetooth are off at all times. the main thing i do on my device is Twitter, Google+, Facebook and Instagram, + some light browsing the Internet. i understand the screen and processor take quite some battery but it's not cool to only be able to use the device about 3-4 hours before running empty. emailed the guy i traded with and he said he got about 7hrs, which would be awesome after dealing with 3-4 ;}

i am using Nova Launcher Prime, but prior to that when i ran Sense the battery was about the same. may just revert to stock to see how that will affect the battery, even though i will miss my widgets and setup. i also emailed HTC and was considering going to AT&T but since i traded the device i doubt they'll be much help.

what do you guys get... and what if anything did you do to improve it ?

thanks.

How much screen on time? 4 hours is nuts. I easily got 24 hours on stock, with light usage, maybe even a day and a half. The 2.2X versions firmwares seem to get better battery life. Just this morning I had just under 50% battery left after 24 hours, with 1 hour screen on time.

If screen brightness in on "Auto" turn that off, and set it to something like 40-50%. That should save you some, but doesn't account the type of battery drain you are talking about.

Might be some runaway processes. Or any possibility you are in a fringe LTE area?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] roeiboot:
on screen time is what i was reporting, round about 4 hours -which yea is pretty horrible i'd say. i even have the screen brightness lower; 25%. checked the processes and for what i know nothing out of the ordinary, but i'm a novice Android user so.. prior to yesterday i only used 4G when out, so at home i stayed on WiFi.

battery stats now:

- 76%

- 5h 8m 54s on battery

- screen on 59m 28s
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Screen on time of 4 hours very normal, and its good for a smartphone. Everyone uses their phone differently, of course. But 4 hours of screen time gets most people through a day, and charge overnight. What type of screen on time did you get with the iPhone?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] gridlock489:
Your stats are very normal for this phone model. The One XL screen is gigantic, but isn't AMOLED and as such uses much more battery life to power than some other Android devices. I get ~3 hours of screen on time in a days use of battery, and that is about 10-15 hours away from a charger. From what I can gather of your usage, if you are looking to extend your battery life, the only thing to do is leave the screen off more.

Do you flash custom ROMs? If so, try a custom kernel that allows you to change the CPU governor and clock speeds. The processor in the One XL maxes out at 1.5GHz by default, but you can underclock it to 1.2GHz with no noticeable detriment to performance. Also you can set the minimum frequency to an even lower clock speed, which allows the phone to use even less power when idling. Finally, make sure that the CPU governor is set to Ondemand. Powersave actually doesn't save as much power as you would think!

my favorite part was when he compared a tiny 3.5" screen to a 4.7" screen and expected the same battery life, even though it is roughly the same
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ECEXCURSION:
Firstly, 4 hours screen on time isn't bad at all. I'm sorry your only reference is an iPhone.

To get 6+ hours of onscreen time with this phone like I and many others get you will need to do two things. Firstly, flash a custom ROM. CleanROM 4.5 is a good one that's as close to stock as you're gonna get. The second thing you need to do is turn off auto brightness. Leave the brightness set at 35% - 40%. This will improve battery life immensely. And no, 40% brightness is not dim.

Happy flashing!

with my iPhone (GPS on always, WiFi always, screen on about 70-80%) i got an average of 6 hours with peaks of 7. 4 hours with the HTC One X is on a good day.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] roeiboot:
i did not flash a ROM since i can not unlock the phone (yet). where i compared, referred to the iPhone is based upon the previous owner who said he usually got 6-7 hours on screen per day. it's uncool that people not live by the rule if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say nothing... i'm only trying to get some help here (luckily most members are helpful... i'll try and ignore the others) and my other reference would be a BB Storm, which lasted very long, but the device wasn't very exciting ;)

i'm following the thread where rooting is discussed but i believe there's little progress. AT&T is also not pushing Sense 4.1 (yet, mine has 4.0) and ICS 4.0.4.

just spoke with HTC and they agree it's too short and are willing to exchange battery... downside i would be w/o a phone for 7-10 business days. might swing by AT&T and discuss, "issue" is i was not the original buyer.. he (HTC rep) stated they might give you a loaner (i doubt it..) we shall see.

thanks to those with positive feedback.

so far..

click here for today's results --16% left.. slightly over 3hr on screen time.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
It really depends on how you use your phone, and not all screen-on time is the same. 4 Hours is screen time is pretty good, and pretty on par with what other users on here have observed. The phone is new to you, so I bet you are using it like crazy. If that use includes a lot of internet, playing video, or games, its going to use more battery than some other activities. I don't know if a replacment is going to make you any happier.

You also have to consider, aside from a much larger screen, its also much higher resolution than the iPhone. Pushing all those pixels by the GPU takes power. The CPU is also much faster than the iPhone (and just about any other smartphone except the Galaxy S3), again using more power. Screen time may be less, but its doing so much more in that time.

my battery would last over 24hrs until the OTA 2.20 update now im lucky to get 12hrs out of it. Did they change something in the update?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
The 2.20 OTA has an new radio. So its possible that the new radio happens to result in worse reception (and therefore battery life) than the previous one. Newer radios do not always get better results for all people, as its very geographically dependent.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] leighton1245:
Thank you for the reply and yes the radio looked like it was a new one and in PA i dont get that great of service everywhere.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kravguy:
Yeah, 4 hours of screen on time is normal so I definitely don't think you have any sort of defect. Signal strength also has a lot of impact on battery life. Keep brightness as low as possible while still being comfortable to your eyes (battery life isn't worth putting extra strain on your eyes). I use an app called display brightness that allows you to change brightness by swiping across the statusbar. I keep mine at the lowest level and just swipe a bit to increase it when I need it and then swipe it back down when I'm done. A custom rom could help some. If nothing else, root so that you can use something like better battery stats to give you more info on what's happening behind the scenes so you can make some adjustments. Although I'm not one to push using this, you might want to install something like juice defender to see if it helps. Verify you don't have some app running in the background unnecessarily chewing up cpu use. Note though that just because an app is running in the background doesn't mean you should kill it. As long as it's not doing anything, it's better for it to be running than to have to load it up (especially if it's an app you use frequently). A couple of other things to verify, don't use push notifications / syncing (I keep background syncing off a manually sync (well, I use Tasker to sync things at different times of the day)). If you can, use wifi. If wifi isn't available, turn it off. Also make sure wifi notifications are off and that you aren't using 'best wifi performance' (both under wifi advanced settings).

I'm sure there are some others I missed but hopefully these help and at least give you a starting place. No matter what though, enjoy your device and don't obsess too much with the battery. Once you've gotten over the 'new toy' syndrome, you should get a days use out of it. I pretty much take mine off charge in the morning and put it on charge before going to bed with around 30‰ left. Sometimes more, sometimes less. 3-4 hours average of screen on time, 30-60 minutes of calling.

update.

went to the AT&T Device Center (did not know it existed until the regular AT&T store told me about it...) they played with my phone and concluded that the battery was draining too fast while using it, so w/o discussion they exchanged it.

got a follow up question since AT&T did not know, with the iPhones i would let them drain all the way down at least and then fully recharge and leave it on the charger for an extra 2 hours after it being 100%, i *think* that helped condition the battery.. anything you guys can suggest anything for me to to now that i have a new device to maybe improve/condition the battery ?

thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Vendetta-NY:
You'll get a lot of conflicting advice on this. My take is that the battery is there for ME, not the other way around. So I don't babysit when to charge it. Would be foolish to risk not having a working phone for waiting until you were almost drained.

If I'm going to be in one spot for a while, I'm plugging it in.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Battery conditioning does not occur for Li ion batteries, as they do not suffer from memory effects. The concept (myth) of battery conditioning for Li ion batteries a holdover from the old NiCad battery technology, that has not been used in phones for years.

What you want to do is calibrate the battery meter. To do this, charge fully to 100% (leave it there for a bit to ensure any topoff charge is applied, an hour is probably plenty) then drain to around 10-20%. Repeat a couple times, and that is it.

Don't drain Li ion batteries until the phone shuts off. Full discharge cycles are bad for the long term life of Li ion batteries. Again, this technique is a holdover from a completely different battery technology. Also, discharging until the phone shuts off has the small possibility of rendering the battery unable to take a charge. Voltage is not zero, but its too low for the battery to accept a charge. The safeguards on the phone are supposed to shutoff the phone before the battery voltage dips too low. But its not failsafe. I've seen several folks with the One X that seem to have had this happen (battery won't charge after letting the battery drain), and several people on other HTC devices as well. Plus, the battery meter is not that accurate in the best of circumstances. It makes no difference whether you drain the battery to 10% or shutoff in terms of battery meter accuracy. But the consequence of draining to shutoff can mean "game over" for your phone, so don't do it.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] toptalent:
Is a battery calibration app needed for this? I used an app from the market and it seems to suggest the similar routine, except when it gets charged to 100% you click a button to reset battery stats, then unplug and do another full discharge-charge cycle without interruption.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
No app is needed for this. Honestly don't know what you gain from using that app, if anything. Android wipes battery stats every time you charge the phone, anyway.

Issues:

#1 Every time I restart my phone, it goes to a session that was 2weeks ago. ie (text messages are erased and reset back to where it was two weeks ago, My pictures i've taken are gone and the ones from two weeks ago are only there.) Basically its like the phone doesn't remember anything after two weeks ago.

#3 Factory reset / Hard reset doesn't do anything. I get to the triangle with the exclamation point and push the up volume + power to get to another menu. I select wipe data/factory reset --- I get the following View attachment 1286043

I would like to install Jelly bean on this phone.
[HTC Amaze 4G] toastie2035:
I am BY FAR no expert, but it looks as though your bootloader is still locked. You need to submit your Token ID to HTC and they will send you a .bin file that you can use to unlock your phone's bootloader.

Again, perhaps I'm not understanding your issue correctly so I don't want to go into too much detail and steer you in the wrong direction. Hopefully one of the gurus can pop in and shed some more light on your problem.

Thanks for your help. I've called HTC they say they can't help me because they suspect my phone has been rooted. I've even reassured them my problems are not a results of rooting but when i recieved the ICS ota

Also don't you have to be s-off ans super-cid to downgrade?

Thanks again
[HTC Amaze 4G] Keylogger_0:
Try flashing the ICS ruu (Make sure it's not an OTA!) through the computer. This can be done by getting the RUU for your carrier (make sure it's an ICS one), preferrably the 531.3 version or the R2 version if you're on T-Mobile (which you are from the pictures). After you have it, rename it to PH85IMG and then put it in an accessible location.

Assuming you have fastboot drivers set up, open command prompt and make sure your phone is fully charged and is in fastboot mode.

Then type in the following commands in RED:

fastboot erase cache

(If it doesn't allow you due to an error "Remote: Not allowed", it's not a big deal)

fastboot oem rebootRUU

(Please note that the case IS important here. rebootruu WILL NOT work. It has to be rebootRUU. It will load up a screen with HTC text in silver. This is normal)

fastboot flash zip PH85IMG.zip

(Now this WILL take some time, this is why a fully charged battery is important. Oh yeah, also do NOT listen to what the green bar on the phone says, it is usually wrong. You will know it's done when it says "OKAY" and nothing more happens after that (even after 5 minutes) OR when it brings up an error, usually stated in text such as "FAILED". Whatever happens, I would like you to copy and paste the entire output, starting from fastboot erase cache, down to the very end.)

Good luck!

I would just call HTC again, and play dumb. Don't mention that you tried to unlock it. Just say that the phone doesn't work and doesn't save anything. Something to that effect. Say that every time you restart the phone, you lose everything.

Remember, be honest, but at the same time, word it differently so it sounds like you don't know what is going on with the phone.

You could also do another fastboot command:

fastboot -w

This is fastboot's method of wiping data/cache partitions, but I doubt it'd work, as a RUU would wipe everything.

Maybe a stupid thing, but have you tried the app, Amaze Memory Clear? I'm just throwing out ideas. It does seem like your memory chips inside the phone are only partially functioning.
