pretty smooth and fast so far! I do get random shut downs though. Wifi sometimes disconnects and will not reconnect until the next reboot as well. camera sometimes crashes when writing a file it seems. some media formats will not play too.

[HTC Sensation] umka83:
Hello,

I know such tread were posted several time before and i read all of them but i did not find any solutions to my problem. My battery drain is really bad with stock battery, Anker battery, Mugen and others.

Battery darins like 1% per minute or 5 minutes even if Data,Wifi,Sync are off and i the phone not used at all.

So far i have tried the following:

1) Installing different ROMs (I even tried installing the ROMs and not adding any new applications and not modifying any settings to see if it is a problem with an app i have or ROM). So i flash a ROM and leave it as it is, without isntalling anything, but battery drain is still very bad

2) I have tried calibrating (charging 100% and wiping stats) several times

3) I have tried different batteries including Mugen and Anker.

4) I tried those all together several times..

5) I have tried better Battery stats and battery widget to check whats wrong but did not find anything unusual.

6) i have tired to charge my battery longer than ususal (to make sure it is 100%)

battery Usage says 89% of battery is used by Android OS

I suspect this might be a hardware problem but how can i check this? and is it possible to fix? Maybe i should go to recovery and check how long does it take for the battery to go from 100% to say 5% ? but i need some figures to compare with.

so my questions are:

A) Did anyone have similar problems? if yes were you able to fix ?

B) How can i check if there is a hardware problem with my battery connection or something else that might cause battery drain

C) Can anyone let me know how long does it take for the battery to go from 100% to 5% (or 10% or 20%) if the phone is all the time in recovery mode?

D) Can the charger be the problem? I am using stadard Sensation charger..

Any help and advice will be highly appreciated

Thank you
[HTC Sensation] valefour:
I don't know how long it takes for the battery to go from 100 to 5% in recovery but I've forgotten my phone at home and not plugged in the charger and it has lasted all day.

Do you just test right after the installation of a rom? My battery usually drains fast after I flash a new rom but I'll let it go from full to dead then charge it overnight and the battery will last way longer after that charge.

[HTC Sensation] aznprodgy:
do you use Titanium Backup? if so, find the app called "Google Backup Transport" and back it up real quick. then delete it, reboot into recovery and wipe dalvik + cache. then reboot the phone to see if that helps.(wait 2-3 days) back on the MT4G there was an issue where that app caused the Android OS to use a lot of the battery, might work here too in your case.
[HTC Sensation] umka83:
Hello,

I am still having the problem with my battery drain. I have tried finding Google Backup in Titanium Backup but it was not listed.

However, checking the battery use Android OS takes more that 85%...
[HTC Sensation] umka83:
I have installed another ROM.

Android OS now disappeared compltely. and it is Cell Standby that is eating all the juice now... But the battery drain is the same. I think the battary Usage indicator does not give any usefull information on what is using the battery..

But the bettery is getting quite warm... and continues to discharge. I just charged to 100% and went asleep. When I woke up next day after 8 hours I onli had 20% of battery remained... WiFi, Data, GPS were switched off.
[HTC Sensation] aznprodgy:
what rom do you have installed now? if your problems keeps happening after switching roms, theres probably 1 of 2 problems. Bad battery (Im canceling this out because you said youve used multiple batteries) or a rogue app that is running in the background, killing your battery

also, have you tried formatting your SD card? save all the important stuff and try formatting it, then transfer all the data you saved back to the card
[HTC Sensation] elvisypi:
You should try changing your charger. Once I bought a new charger from ebay and I had a lot of probs, the phone took forever to charge, it got hot when charging, the battery would hold less charge.

I suggest you try deleting system,cache,userdata,boot with fastboot commander.Here The instructions to use it:

-download tool

-unpack zip and click on .exe application (is a stand alone app, so you have to click and confirm installation, that's all!)

-open tool

-put DHD in "Fastboot Mode"

-plug it to your pc usb

-Wait for "print of device succesfull"--(if fails, check your sdk driver)

-here you go to "misc"

-select: erase partitions (system,cache,userdata,boot) Don't select recovery

-click on "Erase chosen partition"--

-Done

-manually reboot dhd to recovery

-don't care about error message like E:/can't found recovery log" or something like this.

(It's just recovery wich telling you that partitions are not mounted!)

-So wipe data factory reset to re-mount partitions, otherwise you can't flash anything!

-now flash your rom

this way you are sure that your phone is completely wiped! And when I said completely I mean COMPLETELY!! (except for recovery)

This tool is very useful to solves strange issues that a normal wipe cannot solve! Sometimes happen

Last but not least you could try updating your recovery to the latest version.

Hope you solve your problems:good:
[HTC Sensation] umka83:
Hello,

1) Yes i tried 3-4 different batteries. Is it possible they all are damaged? By say damaged charger?

2) As for charger, will USB charger work fine (connected to PC) ? Currently I am using the wall charger, but i do not have a sapre one to try.

3) I will try to wipe everything using the tool provided. Thank you.....

I think I already have latest recovery.

P.S currently I am swothching between MIUI roms, but i had ARHD and other roms before that with smae problem...
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
Do you spend a lot of time in an area with bad cell reception? If so it will spend a lot of battery constantly trying to ping a cell tower.
[HTC Sensation] elvisypi:
If you want you can try using my combination of rom/kernel, you can find them in my signature, I myself had battery problems, but with my Anker and this configuration I get 24 hours of medium usage. Yes the USB charger will do the job and just check if your wall charger has the right output voltage (5v).

Another thing you could do is download this app from Playstore Battery Monitor Widget. It shows the current mA drain/charge.If you see that battery drain is strangely high (example 200mA in standby than your problem isn't the battery/charger. I get a drainage of 3-10mA in standby, which is pretty good. Good luck finding the couprit:good:
[HTC Sensation] umka83:
Thank you all for your advice!

1) as for ROM i do not think any other ROM/Kernel is going to make a difference. I tried to many of them by now. And I do not think ANY rom is so bad to drain 10-15% per hour while phone is not in use

2) i tried different SD cards and tried pulling out the SD completely, so it should not be the case...

3) I am in good reception area. In fact the phone used to work just fine in the same area when i just bought it... but then something went wrong (cannot find what)

4) If it is an application - than should be something inbuilt in the ROM. because I have tried installin ROM and keeping it clean without installing anything at all. not even changing settings... but the problem was still there...
[HTC Sensation] umka83:
and 5) I am using Battery Monitor Widget and it is between -35mA and -75mA.

Seems too much but I still cannot find the cause..
[HTC Sensation] aidinvm_ultimate:
IT seems that i also have this issue!!!

using 2 sense 4 roms and my battery usage never ever come down to -40mA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i can not find culprit yet...

really annoying
[HTC Sensation] umka83:
I have learned a lot about my device since i bought it. The only thing I cannot figure out is the details about the Radio, and which one is the best for me. Can it be that the problems with battery are caused by radio?

What are three best radios to use with JB MIUI Member's choice and othe MIUI Roms?

Thanks
[HTC Sensation] umka83:
It seems like it was Radio after all.

I have checked my version and it was displayed as N/A instead of 11.68

so i reinstalled the radio and it seems like the problem is solved. at least today i have no problems. I will see if it will be fine tommorow and thereafter..
[HTC Sensation] aznprodgy:
hmm thats weird? has your data connection gotten any better after changing radios, or is it still the same? good to hear you fixed the battery drain
[HTC Sensation] umka83:
Hello,

not the connection 3g, data. wi-fi works just as it used to work - just fine. The only thing that changed is that the battery does not die within few hours.

in standby - i have now easily more than 24 hours....
[HTC Sensation] umka83:
It seems liek the problem is back again. I did not isntall anything new or changed any settings. but suddenly i woke up with 40% of battery on my phone istead of 100%..

it really start to irritate me. There is nothin i mgiht have done to cause this. But the phone is noticabely warmer when it eats the battery for no reason....

Android OS is responsible for 83% of battery drain. While battery life was OK it only had 2-3%...
[HTC Sensation] umka83:
PS

Today i lost 60% of battery (from 100% to 40%) while sleeping and my phone not used.
[HTC Sensation] wlteh:
Try installing CPU Spy from Play Store and see if the phone is in deep sleep while not being used. Although this tool doesn't give a lot of information, but at least the 1st thing we can see from this tool is whether the CPU is put into deep sleep while the phone is sleeping. Losing 60% while sleeping is very likely that the CPU didn't go into deep sleep state. So this tool should give you some indication. If the CPU ever goes into deep sleep, you'll see the Deep Sleep entry below 192Mhz.
[EVO 4G General] velocity250:
I am trying to get my bost flash from one evo with a cracked screen to an new one that I have currently on metro. Is there an easy way to just transfer all flash needed data at once or you still have to use the cdma manager, qpst, etc. Thank to all....
[EVO 4G General] Klown80:
Yes you need to use some of those programs to flash the new evo. Just Google to find them if you don't already.

FYI -You might not want to double post and make a new thread to ask the same question anymore or the mods might get you! :p
[EVO 4G General] velocity250:
I have read all of the tutorials and have most of the software but I was wondering if there's a way to just simply plug 1 into the other if they're both flashed and transfer all of the data flashed including the donor info from 1 phone to the other. Thanks for the assistance...
[EVO 4G General] Klown80:
Not that I have heard of, but I may be wrong! As far as I know, you need to manually enter that data using QPST or DFS

How do I flash?

-Here is a guide I wrote: http://miuiandroid.com/community/threads/how-to-update-upgrade-miui.15424/

General rule of thumb. If on

-Stock, CM, AOKP, AOSP. You must do full wipe. That includes going to "format /system" in recovery. Then flash the ROM.

-If on MIUI. Dalvik & Cache wipe should suffice. If not, do above ^

-First boot will take 1-3 minutes. (As its dex/opting, but it doesn't have the animation of dex/opting loaded, so it sits at MI Logo)

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bhaismachine:
Flashing now. Will report soon.

Edit : I flashed the ROM. It looks pretty stable right now though I didn't spend much time on it and I didn't even add my account or installed any apps.

I went though all settings options and found that if you try to change the LED colour then the LED turns on and doesn't switch off until the phone is restarted. When any call or notification is received and even if the notification is dismissed the LED keeps pulsing.

The doesn't ring or even show an incoming call. When the incoming call is missed it shows a missed call notification.

The setting for HW overlay and physical keyboard to get rid of the bugs mentioned are reset when the phone is restarted.

Read the OP carefully. 2.5.1 is this Rom. 2.9.7 is the latest miui base. Therefore, 2.5.1 is what you're looking for.

you're actually downloading 2.5.2. read the newest download links

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mikeyinid:
Its come a long way since your first build for sure. Damn near flawless. Only thing I'd like to see different is the carrier logo gone from the status bar. Very annoying. And someone else mentioned that if you use miui.us as your base we would have their toolbox which would allow for mods like center clock and stuff. Just throwing it out there.
