My idea is that from updating to jelly bean there are a number of apps that behave as they shouldn't. Plus different apps, like Y!Mail for example, had gone under some serious changes.

So in the end there's no just one answer, no just one culprit.

And the best way is actually..the hard one..just to test (with apps like Better battery stats) what is causing the drainage and fix the problem. In some cases could be Networkloactionprovider..in others AudioOut_4 or who knows what app like..Amazon or Y!mail is not configured well for JB and causing insane drainage by keeping the phone wake up. For example, today, Y!mail has keep syncing in my phone for over 20 min...you can imagine the drainage. And that is just one example. And that's why I love Android. Despite it's small flaws and fragmentation I can take a problem into my hands and solve it, not to just wait like a..."sheep" :p to be solved by a mighty god of my OS...and still brag about how good my phone is.:laugh: . (I rememeber how one of my friends didn't recived any mail on a certain "behehehe" phone due some incompatibilities or whatever and waited patiently, without mail, for 2 month for the problem to be solved ) Sorry about this but i couldn't stop myself :D

Update from the last post I made on this where I commented on horrendous drain:

Disabling Google Now (and ticking to delete Location History) has had a huge impact, my phone is now not waking and my battery is not draining terribly.
[HTC One X] Foggy79:
Yeah GN and the locations in maps are also disabled here untill this gets sorted out. Drain is just fine now.

Altho my main problem was a rogue app (prolly one of the 80 games I had on my phone :) )
[HTC One X] ozzyo99:
Thanks to those that did the leg work I now have a phone that lasts from for at least a day.

TBH I really don't see the use of Google Now for anybody other than someone that travels a lot, perhaps as part of their job... does nothing but offer me useless information and still won't deliver the football results for my team (Leicester City) despite being a listed team. Not sure if anybody has actually made good use of it, but for me it amounts to more useless bloat.

Interestingly using BetterBattery the biggest offender for drain is now DownloadManager, anybody know what that is? Haven't downloaded diddly squat from a browser POV, nor have I downloaded anything from the market, or even opened the app.
[HTC One X] yash777:
I've put Man United as my favorite team and removed Arsenal and Chelsea from the list( Idk how they even got added to the list) But still it shows me results of both the teams whenever there's a match. But its a new product so it should get better over time.
[HTC One X] EddySh:
this is helpful. ty.
[HTC One X] obsydian:
The first thing I did after installing JB was disable Google Now.

When you refer to "ticking to delete Location History" was this from Google Now or something else ?
[HTC One X] Foggy79:
It's in Maps, under location settings.
[HTC One X] bluenose0:
Put the WiFi & mobile data widget on the main screen use when needed turn off all sync use a good task killer & use it every time u are about to close screen,I've done this & have a good usage out of my battery..I still have to charge it every night but isn't that what comes with having a smartphone ?

If u have already done this & it not worked then I haven't got a Danny laroo what the problem is but I'm no Tec head

Hope this helps
[HTC One X] Nasalhair:
No, don't.
[HTC One X] Wilks3y:
Agreed, task killers cause force-closes and compatibility issues over time.

Very bad for your system.

To re-iterate, your idea is good but could be made so simple using tasker.

I have-

Tasker:

Screen on -> WiFi on

Screen off (for 10 seconds) -> WiFi off
[HTC One X] Foggy79:
Yesterday my phone went from 100% to 83% in 3h laying next to me doing nothing lol, scared the hell out of me :)

Turned out the latest fun app I installed that day was a silent killer :p Should have known it by all the spam I got from it in my notification bar lol.

Removed it and my phone found its peace again, all back to normal :cool:
[HTC One X] Eggcake:
Maybe it's a bit off topic:

I just installed Tasker (Trial-Version from the tasker homepage). I'm a bit afraid that Tasker itself drains quite a lot of battery? I wanted to create a task where WiFi turns off when I'm leaving my house (not using GPS though))...doesn't that drain a lot of battery or how does tasker work (polling every x seconds for my location surely can't be that good?!)
[HTC One X] Wilks3y:
I can tell you, Tasker uses NO battery. The battery it uses is almost negligable.

If you don't want to use Tasker, your choice but my battery increased 4 times as much using a few tasker profiles.

Tasker is THE most powerful app I have ever experienced on a mobile device BAR NON.

It can do ANYTHING.

E.g Not only can you set profiles like we have discussed, you can make your own widgets using them. Such as a battery % widget.
[HTC One X] Foggy79:
I bought Tasker yesterday since I heard a lot of good stuff about it. Currently experimenting with it on my Nex7.

Will have to look for some lists with most used tasks/profiles since the possibilities seem to be endless.
[HTC One X] Eggcake:
Allright, thanks. Will definitely try it out :)

My Hox battery drain is normal after upgrade to JellyBean.
[HTC One X] beanbean50:
u might wanna try LBE security, it scans for push-air adverts/spam etc has a real-time antivirus and u can set permissions for every app, it's a little bit overwelming at first as there are so many options to choose from but it's worth it...!

[HTC One X] Foggy79:
Thanks for the tip, but i'm not realy a fan of realtime AV or security progs running on my phone. I rather delete the app that is causing spam/drain :)
[HTC One X] Eggcake:
You should really try it, it's great :)

It just blocks permission of some apps. For example, you can block internet access for games (which actually don't need one) to block any home calling (and as a nice side effect, also every ad).

Next to Titanium backup (and aside from custom ROMs), it's the main reason I usually root my phone...

Edit: Just saw that you're not rooted (I'm neither) - afaik LBE doesn't work on unrooted devices.

I am having unusual drains with Stock JB (COM.HTC.LAUNCHER)

Android OS is taking a huge chunk of my battery and I cannot figure out why.

Can anyone relate to this?

I have attached a few screens

[HTC One X] cookpass:
I use timeriffic to do a few things, amongst which is pop it on airplane mode at a certain time at night and off again before the alarm in the morning. I had been on full charge at bedtime and when I woke up about 7 hours later it had lost nearly 25%. It was all fine before the JB update (I had done a wipe to make sure all was fine and dandy too)...

After a bit of messing about, mine turned out to be getting drained by the friendstream widget. I turned it off and I went to bed last night on 66% and woke up this morning on 66%. Nice :D

Cheers!
[HTC One X] Foggy79:
Glad you found your devil ;)
[HTC One X] tinytom21:
I had horrible standby issues with JB upgrade too and I was very annoyed. I figured out that something was keeping it awake when it shouldn't be and XDA told me what it was! I think it was the location service, but when I turned that off I lost all my stuff like weather and things. I want those still to be there!

So I installed Deep Sleep Battery Saver, which makes sure your phone is properly asleep when the screen is off and this has dramatically increased my battery life. I can't give you really specifics as every day I use my phone in a different way, but today my phone was at 85% battery after being unplugged for about 4.5 hours, which is VERY good compared to normal (probably ususally around 65% or 70%)

The drain when the screen is on is unaffected (and therefore still bad) but then it was always like that on ICS too.

You don't need to be rooted or anything to install this and the only downside I can see is that the phone seems to be a bit sluggish for about 5 seconds after you wake it. When everything wakes up properly then it's fine.

It wakes up periodically to check for emails and stuff. I have mine to wake up once every 2 hours, but it's very unlikely that I got 2 hours without waking my phone manually, so that setting isn't really used that much.
[HTC One X] asp2010:
I get the same thing, high drain from System (com.htc.launcher), Kernel (Android OS) and System (*wakelock*). It seems no matter what I try, it's always there, so I've come to think it's because of lousy HTC programmers.
[HTC One X] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
yea if the devs can't fix that it's a big fault of htc ...
[HTC One X] ArmedandDangerous:
I'm still getting AudioOut_4 wakelocks, and it's quite high. Only seems to happen when I'm getting whatsapp messages while idle, but i've uninstalled and reinstalled hoping it was a Titanium restore issue. No luck /:
[HTC One X] adi_ilie:
In my opinion, AudioOut_4 is associated with different programs that use sounds so it's normal to be there.

In the first place I thought like you, but in the last days I've played a game and realised that the length of usage of the AudioOut_4 is increased with the one of usage due to gaming.

Instead, I have the same usage from kernel (all programs associated) and system.HTC.com like asp2010 and docloco.

Frankly, upgrading to JB was the worst ideea: Google now is useless for me, smoothness was good before, no lag, the drainage over night was insignificant (1-3%) but, instead I got a worse battery life (and 10% overnight drainage), choped Sense (i hate the fact that now is the same image on every tab) and all in name of some unproved (ad least for me) smoothness and lag free.

ICS 4.0.4. was great. JB 4.1.1 and Sense+ are now crap. And beside this, SG3 has 4.1.2 that solved all the problems that we face in 4.1.1. And that's more frustrating :p

Is it normal that if I listen to music the mediaserver takes more then 25% of the battery? ...

Gesendet von meinem HTC One X mit Tapatalk 2
[HTC One X] asp2010:
I totally agree with you. I can't even imagine what they were thinking when they removed the awesome cube animations...

It depends on how much you listen, but yeah, I also see increased usage from mediaserver when I listen to music.
[HTC One X] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
Isn't mediaserver for the msuusic sharing or so via WiFi ? For example to another player?

Gesendet von meinem HTC One X mit Tapatalk 2
[HTC One X] asp2010:
I believe it's a generic name that shows up whenever you play any kind of media, though I might be wrong.
[HTC One X] Foggy79:
25% of the used amount of juice? I mean if your battery is 90% then it might be normal that your mediaserver took 25% of the used 10%.
[HTC One X] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
if i listen to music my battery goes every few seconds more then 5 % down ...maybe a lil bit less ...but after an half an hour before it was on 81...and then i looked there were only 61 ...and after a few min i looked again because of choose another song 54 % ...my battery goes down like i would playing...also in standby ...but 51mhz and deep sleep are used :/
[HTC One X] Foggy79:
Very satisfied atm with my battery. I'm getting 3 to almost 4 days with light/moderate usage :good:

Location is on, but no Google Now (not using it anyway).
[HTC One X] CM17X:
Hey guys, want sone opinions about this.

For some reason gsam battery is not giving me the average life, it was about 16 hours when I start using the program. Anyway, my main concern is the higly drain I'm getting even while I'm writing this post. Its like I'm losing 1% of my battery for every minute im on screen and typing

I have not any task killer or widgets, just greenify, twitter, whatsapp and some others like a.I type keyboard. All of them are hibernating by greenify (except the keyboard).

Still, gsam battery shows that the system take around 30% of my battery and I really don't have a clue why is this.

Betterbatterystats don't show such a huge or abnormal wakelock, so I want to try isolating the problem.

Gps is disable and also weather widget, also, I nevee play music.on my phone and I have just one "desktop", so no widgets out there.

Hope you can help me out.

(I start writing this with 77% of battery, now is 75% and going down.)

I would suggest trying deepsleep battery saver. It works great for those who keep the phone in stand by most of the time.

You can also try the new tegra 4 kernel by trip n droid for sense(with power saver on).
[HTC One X] CM17X:
Im going to check deepsleep later on. Anyway, I think there is not problem with my phone on idle, because my drains comes just when I'm in screen. While sleeping with data on I lost 5 percent in 9 hours, quite good. But losing 1% per.minute is insane for me. Also take a look to this, android kernel and android system is consuming 57% of my battery. Wtf
[HTC One X] Vcek:
If you are keeping your phone in idle(for longtime) it usually drains quickly once you start using it. This is a glitch in the way the system calculates battery percentage.(my battery usually stays 100% for the first 3-4 hours if I don't use it)

That's why desense users think thier battery drains quicker(they don't have this glitch)
[HTC One X] CM17X:
Wait a minute. Desense users doesnt have this glitch? Meaning battery drain faster.

I don't keep my phone on idle in purpose, is just that my routine is charge it over 7:30PM and unplug this at 10PM, then turn it on and i go to sleep. That's why the long idle period. Once i'm awake, i start using this since 8AM

I always pay atention to my battery while charging, and i always turn off my phone before start a full cycle of charge. That say, i always watch the phone when is around 2.5 hours since i pluged it, onve the led is green i unplug the phone and turn it on. What i've notice is that once i start using it, by browsing XDA or tweeter, i lost 1% inmediatelly (Or almost), it never keep 100% for long time if i use this for a minute or 2.

After that all that you can see is a descend graphic, always that i touch this, i have a huge drain.

Right now my battery is 31% with 2:35:47 hours on Screen and 18:37 hours on Battery; but kernel (Android) consumption is unbelievable, 47% . . . 47%!
[HTC One X] Vcek:
I meant aosp users don't have this glitch, you think your battery is draining quickly when you stop idling because it is already lower than what it is showing,

so when you start using the phone it starts calculating voltage and approximates consumption incorrectly.

To test your battery properly, charge to 100%, turn screen to 50% brightness, keep screen to never timeout, with wifi/3g on you should get around 4 hours of battery without touching the phone.

The problem with sense it doesn't calculate battery usage properly when it is sleeping.
[HTC One X] CM17X:
So basically SenSucks.

That makes some sense. Actually sometimes I get the opossite. From 15% back to 18% but in few time back again to 15% and down.

Yesterday I got 20 hours on battery and 4 on screen, so I think is normal, isn't?

I'm thinking about batterydeepsleep saver, linda like juice defender. But some peple report that it cause more harm than benefits.

Thanks for your help.
[HTC One X] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
At first don't use those Battery saver apps... Second 4 hours on screen is really normal and good... With moderate usage I get only max 3,5 h and if I have luck then ť hours... That's normal and good because we don't have that big battery etc...

I don't get it. If we are Tegra 3, how could we use Tegra 4 Kernel? Or is just a name?

Only the drivers from tegra4 are inside it's not the whole kernel... Just driver for performance and display improvement

And some more things... It's a really good gaming kernel and soon also with good battery life :) later today he upload it :)

I had my nexus 7 2013 lte version for over 2 weeks now and have been having this battery drain issue while on sleep. I have tried to install custom rom and kernel but still having the same issue.I tried what the OP did, factory reset not installing anything, charge the battery to full. I then left it overnight (about 8 hours), but the drain still exist (got 63% left). I've tried to check if anything was waking the device so I tried betterybattery app but it shows that the device is in deep sleep all the time. I started to think that the battery may have a leak or something so I tried to charge it to full again, i turned it off then left it overnight. I turned on the nexus and the battery is 100%! Im running out of ideas now. Just waiting for the 4.4 update hoping that it might fix this but not really keeping my hopes high.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] tnap1979:
i saw a feature, on a blackberry 10 beta device that took multiple pics in one shot and let you choose the best face pose incase of blinking or whatnot,

now i also noticed that the note 2 has the same feature, but its called "best face"

i was curious if there was anyway to get this on our note i717's?

seeing as we already have 4.2 camera mods, and photosphere mods and such,

really looking forward to seeing this on the note 1
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ptgptg:
There is an app in the market called fast burst camera that takes multiple pictures one after the other. That might help if best face has not been ported.

Well reason I ask is like I stated in OP that we had already ported the 4.2 camera and various other apks from different devices.. and we managed to get touchwiz working on almost any device.. so I'm wondering if best face is an apk.. a lib file or what.. I'd gladly dissect a note 2 stock ROM file to find out if I could
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
Ok, the current state of affairs is someone pulled the S3 camera app and tried it, and the frame grab didn't work. The conclusion is library files are also needed but the correct files haven't been found yet. I'm sure when someone gets it done it will be at the top of the theme and app section. Stay tuned or take on the project. For now the Fast Burst camera is spectacular.

Any ideas anyone?

Well so far. Taking the note 2 camera app, gallery, and best face/pose apps and lib files, putting them in the system/app directory has petty much failed... my phone sticks at the Samsung logo on boot even after full wipes and dalvik/cache wipes.. still won't boot.. need to do a full restore to get working again.... I don't know what I'm missing or not doing right.. any ideas anyone?? Can someone maybe pass this on to a dev for advice or more input.. I'd really love to see this working on i717
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
Yes, I know the problem.

You are attempting to mix different framework pieces together from two different architecture sets.

JB framework on the note2 is very different from anything we currently have for the note 1.

More too the point, the jellybean touchwiz side of the framework.

In addition, the CPU coding is vastly different.

Until we have source code, or a direct port from the note 2, we cannot get working JB note 2 features.

We have managed to pull boot anims, and wallpapers etc. But not much more without source code.

And it will be a great day when the kernel source drops.

Hopefully Samsung will release a JB upgrade for us soon, but I'm not holding my breath.....g

my nexus arrived yesterday i did A LOT with it!

on 4.1.2 i unlocked it then rooted and then relocked cause i didn't wanted to update to 4.2.1 but yesterday it downloaded automaticly and it's really annoying in status bar!

i really loved Nexus 7 battery life i surfed watched movies updated 42 apps and listened to music and played some games at same time and after 5 hours i was still 30-40% left

and it's good because i have a htc one X and nexus is so so much better so the questions is will 4.2.1 change battery life?!

another thing is can i root 4.2.1 on both profiles without problem

and last one what are the other issues and are they really annoying and how is app compalibilty?!

EDIT: i am now relocked on 4.1.2 . should i unlock bootloader for rooting 4.2.1 and will it wipe internal storage?!
