My battery seems to be fine, i'm using ICJ Rom with N3okernel and it's been great. if i'm in the house i leave it on OnDemand/Deadline but if i'm going out for awhile i would switch to SmartMax/Sio.

With smartmax is last's all day when i'm out and thats alot of browsing and using facebook. some streaming videos from my computer aswell

Battery question mark

Can somebody help me to resolve issue with the battery on my HOX. I really dont know what this info means. My battery last for one day aprox, but since i flash the Cyanogen mod 10.1.3 i have this icon of my battery on status bar.
[HTC One X] onixbourbon:
....

First things first, this thread is full of good answers and people who are willing to help solving this major problem. Much :good: goes to their effort.

As a ONE X user (default retail) at the very beginning I struggled with the battery life problem so I decided to run some simple tests.

Each day in a week I've spent using only one thing per day like, the first day-listening music, second-WIFI alwasy on but not surfing or similar, day 3 various autosync stuff, day 4 screen brightness, day 5 apps etc...

So i've came to a rather small and no-****-sherlock conclusion at the end of my smartphone hunger games:

WIFI is a b*tch to use, do not, i repeat DO NOT use it if you don't really need it. It drains battery like a black hole.

Screen brightness wont affect the battery life if you're not a really heavy user.

Apps do take a huge part in the battery drain right after WIFI so in my opinion and experience, say, after done with facebook and gmail, turn of sync and delete FB account in settings (i hate using facebook on smartphones, creates lag no matter how strong your smartphone is so i deleted the accounts i dont usualy use and similar stuff)

Other apps like games especially the ones over 100MB of space, dont use them when your battery is under 50%, it tends to go even faster downhill than you would expect it.

After the test I turned off everything on my HTC one day and used it only for sms, calls, taking pictures and as a clock-just like an old phone model with a camera and regular stuff. From 8AM to 8PM battery was 90%, over night without charging 99-98%. Without roms and other heavy IT stuff.

Just avoid draining the battery under 30% every single day, avoid installing apps which u wont use at least once a week, avoid using facebook and other apps that require WIFI and avoid the WIFI-always-on routine.

For the HTC users that have serious battery drain problems, delete apps, lower brightness, turn off various syncs, turn on power saver and use it as little as possible for max a week, battery stats should get way way better if not, change it and never let it get past 30%.

I hope this novel of mine helped.

I agree i think we expect far too much from our smartphones and the battery just cant handle it
[HTC One X] PhoenixFx:
I'm on Viper X 4.0.5 with Alex-V 2.7 kernel. And I'm experiencing the opposite of what you do... IMO WiFI doesn't eatup that much battery. I always have WiFi ON and connected to a WiFi network more than 80% of the time (both at home and at work) with google, viber and whats app on the background. I can easily get 16+ (even 20hrs) a day with moderate to above average use (i.e: screen on time of 2.5~3hrs, 2 hrs of calls both VOIP and regular voice, around 50 messages, and web browsing).

But the screen brightness on the other hand is a completely different story. I have it at the minimum possible setting when indoors and 50%+ (Custom Auto) when the sensor value goes beyond 1200lux (equates to outdoor sunny conditions). But if I have the factory default auto brightness or 50% screen brightness all the time I barely can get 1.5 hrs of screen time.

IMO biggest battery killers are screen and poorly written or CPU+GPU intensive apps.

After moving from stock 4.2.2 to Cyanogenmod 11, I see a drastic improvement on the battery life especially battery drain. It only drain 2% of battery life for like 7 hours sleep time which is pretty good. To take it a step further, would really like to know whether if a One X+ battery makes any differences. Could anyone share their results? :victory:
[HTC One X] nikola016:
Well you can find it in thread htc one x+ battery is compatible, something like that is the name of the thread :)
[HTC One X] Bobbi lim:
Isn't the battery of sense rom supposedly be better than AOSP? I know 4.4.x kitkat roms have quite a significant improvements in regards to battery but I've never heard from anyone saying that it has better battery life than sense. Have you tried a custom kernel with sense rom?
[HTC One X] windylawyer.1712:
I dont think CM rom can be better than stock 4.2.2. The standby time may be better, but the use time mag be less

Gửi từ XT1033 của tôi bằng cách sử dụng Tapatalk
[HTC One X] Andy0625:
To be honest, I do really have a better standy-by time and run time with the AOSP as compared with the sense rom. Perhaps without all those bloatware draining the juice? No buddy, I have not tried a custom kernel especially with stock rom. I'm on the cyanogenmod 11 m5 release, perhaps you can try it out and share the results too?

One thing I noticed with this rom though is that the audio quality just plain boring. :rolleyes:
[HTC One X] :
i would consider the htc one a smartphone with just mediocre battery life. it's not as bad as the galaxy nexus but worse than the s3 or s1. if you need a phone with a great battery life go for the moto g. got it after a friend broke my one x and i gotta say this thing is a marathon runner: 6+ hours screen-on time with normal use compared to 2.5-3 hours with the one x. and the best part is the moto g is running every game you throw at it without any stutters or lags, unlike the one x (check real racing 3 or beach buggy blitz). the only disadvantages are the camera and the thickness (which you won't really notice because of the curved back) (maybe also the storage but I only used about 7 gb max on my 32gb one x so it was never a problem for me)
[HTC One X] nikola016:
Well man, i played RR3 without ANY fps drop, it was constantly smooth, with 1.3ghz cpu, and 416mhz gpu. Phone was hot after playing and it drains battery as hell, but lagy RR3 on hox, first time i hear...

---------- Post added at 02:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:46 AM ----------

Than stock maybe, but than custom kernel hm no. Because stock kernel was something worst i tested for few day's when i bought phone, i could get up to 3.5 hours max screen on time, with alex V almost double, and phone is still fast and snappy. :)
[HTC One X] slavko6:
My mobile carrier gave me HTC ONE V to use it until my ONE X was on repair, battery life was whole day with normal usage. After that I tried SONY Z1 for few days, battery is exhilarating lasted for two working days. After service refusing to admit battery short life with diagnose "no fault found", I replaced battery by my self, and now i have functional and perfect phone with battery which is lasting for 20 hours with no problem.

Using Lypota's kernel (lONELyX #023) I'm now getting some decent battery life with my 2 year old HOX.

In a month of daily usage I've averaged 3.5 hours of SOT.

Even with bad mobile internet, I have no problems making the phone last a whole day.

Today I managed by best time so far - 7.5 hours of screen time.

Wi-Fi on all the time, using reddit sync, Fenix (Twitter), Tapatalk, F1LT, and web browsing using Javelin.

Display was at 20-40% (was using it at home), the Power Saver off.
[HTC One X] kartoonz:
Got the battery replaced after 2 yrs from htc repair centre with 1800 mah capacity. After a days normal to heavy usage I'm quite satisfied with the battery and SOT. below stats are one of my best. I think I can use it for another year or so... :)

Hey guys, I'm using MaximusHD 20.0 for a year already, too lazy to update.

My battery life is just godawful and I'm wondering if it's just the battery that gets worn out after 2 years of intense use or my ROM is just ****. Were there any battery life improvements with Sense 5.0 ROMs over the past year? Thank you.

[HTC One X] Adiost:
So, what should I do in your opinion? I was thinking about upgrading to HTC One Mini 2, but I managed to clean my speakers with a toothbrush after a year of very low volume and now my HOX is insanely loud, therefore the last problem I've got is the battery life.

I feel like replacing the battery with the one for HOX+, but I'm not entirely sure since I don't even remember how good was the battery life when I just bought the phone.
[HTC One X] Angelo37:
I love AOSP so im on Paranoid Android 3.5-4 hours for me but not settled yet (flashed yesterday). I like features but not too much so. Sense: ARHD. AOSP: PA or SlimKat.

For LOTS of features. Sense: ViperX (laggy for me btw) AOSP: AICP 5.0

[HTC One X] blackst225:
i think a major role is the age of the batteries also.

How many years can we use the hox battery before they give up?

Thats the problem i can read in many posts. Everyone has an different battery condition. Thats the reason why the lifetime of a rom is different between the users.
[HTC One X] shankly1985:
Yes it bloody does lol I have done it a couple times for people and its the first thing HTC will recommend doing. After using your phone for long time charge and drain, installing new Roms the battery can loose its 100% charge that is why doing the Calibration fixes it.

Hell I have even seen it listed in manuals. There is also the Rooted way Charge phone till 100% green light unplug and restart into Recovery and delete battery stats, switch off phone and charge till again green light. Never tried this one has stock HTC way I have noticed works well.
[HTC One X] PaKii94:
ill look into that, I got mine new and never really fully charged it until a couple days after. hopefully it will help :)
[HTC One X] shankly1985:
Yes next time you fully charge, just switch off when green light and charge again, if light turns green right away you all good, if its red leave till green.
[HTC One X] Spl4tt:
can't you read the screenshot? It says screen on time was over 7h..... Oo

how did he do that
[HTC One X] shankly1985:
You know what I completely missed that. And I have no idea how I don't even think thats possible really The HTC One X just about makes 3 hours screen on time never mind 7 hours I call BS.
[HTC One X] Mr_S:
All out does its make sure the battery display is displaying correctly. Its not gonna give you any real life extra life just make sure it's being shown correct. All it does its wipe a file that gets generated on each boot.

Edit I'm talking about battery calibration app.

Our wiping battery starts
[HTC One X] limzm:
7h screen time? He didn't even show the battery graph, he probably charge it around 70% and start using it again.
[HTC One X] shankly1985:
Am not talking about using any app from play store.

If the phone isn't showing correct % then phone will auto switch off at 14% when really it has more power left.

This happens alot with laptop, that constantly charge and drain isn't good on the battery, really you should never allow the battery to drain this reduces the life of it.

It's good every now and then to just give the phone a full charge and switch off charge again this makes the phone read the correct amount of battery left.

"14% auto switch of this still happen on one x? Been long time since I had phone drain so low"
[HTC One X] ataft:
Maybe my pictures are a little more transparent.

Not 7 hours, but 6 ain't bad!

Using ViperX ROM. auto brightness turned on, and gps/sync disabled. Nothing else done.

Unfortunately though, I haven't been able to repeat that. Got 5 hours yesterday. Something seems to have changed since I updated the rom.

Android OS huge drain

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

GSAM Battery says its the HTC Launcher. Better Battery Stats cant find anything useful and the built in power app in the ONE X says its Android OS.

Also, i get about 1 hour screen on time and my phone is dead within 10 - 12 Hours.

Usual apps (Facebook, Twitter, Whatsapp, 3 email accounts configured with Smart Sync) (Facebook and Twitter set to resync every 4 hours, I sent maybe 5 whatsapp messages and 0 phone calls)

Can anyone relate to this?

I have attached a few screens
[HTC One X] cookpass:
I appear to have fixed my battery drain by disabling my freindstream widget. I was losing 20%+ overnight from a full charge. I checked before I went to bed last night, it was on 66%, checked this morning, still on 66% :D

Where is your Proof??

Don't reply back without some :good:
[HTC One X] Mr_S:
Your talking about 2 different things. Display not showing the correct battery percent is corrected by fully charging your battery which will wipe your stats. That's different to putting extra charge in your phone. I don't know about charging to green. Unplug, than charge again if red. I suspect it may be bad for your battery and would only do it when phone/battery new but if you could point me to this"proof" ill have a read. Also the worst flashing will do to your battery is drain it but charging it fully like previously mentioned will recalibrate it.

Saying it's been proven here, is not proof.

Saying it's been talked to death on the Desire forum, is not proof.

If HTC repeat the same advice verbally and in written materials, really, that's the same thing, isn't it?

Your evidence amounts to hearsay and exactly what I said by repeating false information doesn't make it true. You might want to address this issue if we're going to have a debate.

Let's start here: http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/charging_lithium_ion_batteries

I'll acknowledge that they say the battery should be charged with the device off to prevent a parasitic load confusing the charger. However, that parasitic load prevents the charger from seeing the current drop, thus charging it further (not a good idea).

Over to you to explain how your technique "calibrates the battery". First start by explaining exactly what you mean. So far I understand it to mean that it affects the total charge capacity of the battery, which would require an increase in charge density of the polymer substrate. Maybe it's some reversal of the aging of the battery, but since it's basically just charging, I don't see how it differs from "normal" charging.

My One X's battery life is pathetic when connected to eduroam wifi networks with jb rom(not draining that much for the wifi at home.)

It was much better when using stock ICS connected to the same network and became much worse after updating to stock jb.

I now flashed Venom JB and the wifi still drains a lot of battery.

FYI My nexus7 has the same problem with the eduroam wifi so i believe it is a jellybean issue?

please help, one time i took a nap for around 3 hours and found the battery to be drained from ~30% to 0
[HTC One X] XxVcVxX:
Setting maximum cores takes more juice than using 4 cores. Using only dual core means more load per core, leading to higher temps and so more battery usage.

[HTC One X] BenPope:
You're still arguing by assertion.

When you say it came from HTC, is it in printed materials, it from support staff? Don't beleive that support staff are trained in battery technology. People were still giving advise on how to charge batteries based on NiCd days when all phones had gone through NiMH and onto Li ion for years.

You haven't addressed what you mean by calibration or how your method "calibrates" the battery. It sounds like you're equating over charging with calibration.

Thats exactly what i was thinking about load and the temp .. but my battery temperature was below 40℃ all the time. Well it depends on the usage too, i played heavy games but still it didnt exceed 40°
