Your screens on nearly 4H what's your complaint?

---------- Post added at 08:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:49 AM ----------

Do you all understand playing music while screen is off constitutes wake? Stop putting so much emphasis on something non-critical and losing your sh1t over nothing.

greetz,

peet
[One (M7) General] babakmaham:
what is happening for my device?

i am really confused. all is stock!

see

"Your screens on nearly 4H what's your complaint?"

but there is many people with very better results in this tread ?

i worked only with tapatalk today .no gaming, nothing else !!!with 30% brightness level!!some people have over 7 hours screen time!!
[One (M7) General] chiefroberts:
This looks great to me bro! I don't even get stats that good and I'm happy with mine!
[One (M7) General] chiefroberts:
Not my best stats by any mean but fairly heavy use today. Really using the phone - calls, texts, music, internet browsing, everything on. Happy enough to be honest! Got me through the work day no problem and will make it until I charge it again over night later on. That constitutes good battery life to me!
[One (M7) General] Karish1989:
Lol you all have better battery time then me :(... Do you people have synchronised on or of ? Any tips for me?

Atm Mine stats are:

13 hour (2 hour and 15 min display)

Wakelock:maps is always waking up mine phone
[One (M7) General] KennyLegend:
If u want better battery...

*Syncs off

*Disable apps u don't use, like maps, *Google now etc.

*Disable location services

*lower screen brightness

*turn off mobile data, wifi, gas, BT when not in use.

Etc. Etc
[One (M7) General] ragingredbull:
Happy with mine. Got 2 and a half hours screen time 100% brightness on a 17 hour day. 21% battery left. Might just leave my screen full brightness from now on. Anyone done some testing to see how long they get with full brightness? Will do it again tomorrow as I have docs appointment Timor Rio w and they make me wait forever so will have plenty of time to play around with it.
[One (M7) General] Magpir:
After doing some battery calibration I wonder if this is ok?
[One (M7) General] Magpir:
And my wakelocks screenshot attached regarding my above post ....someone comment if this si fine or is there something wrong with wakelocks
[One (M7) General] Magpir:
this is amazing....but we need more details on your setup

which version of the firmware are u on?
[One (M7) General] dai_griff:
Here you go, as yet my network (3UK) has yet to roll the update out
[One (M7) General] Magpir:
Maybe u are running newer hardware than mine
[One (M7) General] dai_griff:
This was hardware from the first release of phones on 15th March......if you look back in this thread you can see that my battery continues to get better and better.....
[One (M7) General] Magpir:
How many charge cycles have u done
[One (M7) General] dai_griff:
Dunno, between 30-40 I always let the battery fully discharge before putting it on charge
[One (M7) General] Magpir:
a full discharge is never beneficial to LiON battery capacity. The battery life of a LiON battery is dependant mostly on temperature, discharge rate, and age. In fact, low charge state actually is harmful to LiON battery capacity; although modern batteries have circuits that tells the system to shutdown before it became really harmful to the battery, it is best for LiON battery to be plugged in as often as is convenient.

also gives more accurate battery readings.

As for calibrating battery meter by full discharge-recharge, that is partially true. The following is a quote from HP regarding Smart Battery System in their laptops:

Repeated short discharges and recharges cause increasing inaccuracy between the state-of-charge of the battery and the Power Meter readings. Periodically, the battery needs to be calibrated to "relearn" its usable capacity so it can synchronize its charge status with the Power Meter. ... The user simply has to periodically discharge the battery until the 5% capacity alarm is received. The need to perform this procedure will vary with individual use. In general, a Li-Ion battery should be calibrated a minimum of once every 3 months. A battery that is seldom discharged completely should be calibrated about once a month.

and the following is from Battery University:

How often does a battery need calibrating? The answer depends on the application. For practical purposes, a calibration should be done once every three months or after 40 partial cycles. If the portable device applies a periodic deep discharge on its own, no additional calibration will be needed.

The need for calibration comes from the mismatch between the battery's chemistry and the microchip that estimates the battery's state of charge. This mismatch develops over numerous partial discharge, although unlike the memory effect in NiCad battery, it does not affect the battery's actual capacity and is reversible by letting the battery relearn its bottom and top charge state. Do not do calibration too often since deep discharge does permanently harm LiON's actual capacity.
[One (M7) General] Magpir:
It's working fine on mine .

full charge cycle or partial?
[One (M7) General] aeronautics:
My average time left shows 10 hours when unplugged the charger is said around 33 hours. Is it alright? I usually get about 20-18hours out of my battery
[One (M7) General] rkial:
How much does it use for an hour of gaming?
[One (M7) General] Magpir:
the average time will keep increasing the more u charge the battery.

mine has gone from 8 hours avg time to 16 hours
[One (M7) General] ra9b:
Wow....amazing. trickdroid + tbaldens kernel. Lowest brightness. WiFi on all the time. YouTube for is say 85% of the screen on time. Used external speakers all the way up.

You think its good? I think it's not long screen on. But then again I don't watch 85% youtube.

---------- Post added at 07:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:46 AM ----------

I am thinking about flashing my One.

Does a new Rom really extend the battery life, as every developer claims.

Which one is the one to go? Always had good experience with Android revolution Rom on my DHD.
[One (M7) General] Ganzor:
I had same problem, was the weather clock for me that would sync location etc, i just set it to sync not as often.

[One (M7) General] ra9b:
Yeah but I only lost 33% battery
[One (M7) General] *justintime*:
Owwww yeah I see... Didn't look at that number. Then it's great:thumbup:
[One (M7) General] WolfDale7:
So I don't know what's up with my One. Most people here are pulling so much from their phone - - including 5+ hrs of screen time..

I'm barely managing 3!

Also what's up with my charging? Took almost as long as the battery took to drain.

Shall I look into exchanging this unit? Barely making a day out of it...

Btw, i have lte enabled but disabled whenever I'm using wifi, screen was mostly dimmed ad about 10% for the most part.

What do you guys think?
[One (M7) General] ra9b:
Yeah the charging is a problem on this phone. It takes around 3 and a half hours for me. You should be getting a lot more out of your phone. Do you have nfc or GPS on or something? There has to he something significant eating your battery.
[One (M7) General] WolfDale7:
Had GPS enabled for maybe just 15, 20 minutes? Location services were off, nfc was not enabled.

I'm heading by the mall today. I have a dead pixel and I guess if the guy doesn't believe the battery is bad I'll just point at the pixel...

So this isn't normal, eh?
[One (M7) General] l3mm:
My battery stats

Hi everyone, my first post here in the HTC One forums. Had mine about a week now and did a proper test on my battery during last couple of days. Here are my results:

Granted not a huge amount of screen on time, but I'm very happy with 32 hours. I really need to check about these insane amount of wakelocks from Google Maps tho and I reckon I could get even better.
[One (M7) General] ra9b:
Yeah your battery life is betty abnormal. It's pitiful. It shouldn't be like that. Hopefully you get a new device. And apparently most HTC ones have a couple of dead pixels. I haven't noticed any on mine though lol. Good luck!

---------- Post added at 10:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:15 AM ----------

Wow, that's nice! What's your phone configuration? And just disable maps of greenify it (if you're rooted)
[One (M7) General] peachlai:
That's exactly what I did, greenify and add google maps on the sleeping list. Boy, what a big improvement! I didn't know location services have been eating up my battery! Also, my phone cools down while I am using it. Before, it got quite warm with screen on for about 1 hour, but now, pretty cool! :thumbup:

Be Vegan, Make Peace ＼(^o^)／
[One (M7) General] l3mm:
Thanks mate. My phone is on Stock Rom at the mo. Will have to look into greenify, not heard about this but I'm not rooted yet, will get round to doing it eventually :)

My general setup is:

- Screen set to auto brightness

- All Location Services boxes ticked, including GPS (probably the main cause of my Maps wakelocks!)

- Power Saver On, apart from Vibration box unticked

- Sleep mode On

Additional setup as follows:

I use Llama, which if you have not used before is an app to create profiles for your phone. It can be used to set events when certain conditions are met. For example, I have the following included in my setup:

- Disable Wi-Fi when leaving home

- At night (00:00 to 06:30), disable Wi-Fi and Mobile data

- Set Wi-fi to sleep shortly after the screen turns off

I think this last one has been a good battery saver. It swithces Wi-Fi off automatically about 5-10min after the screen is off and then re activates it when you unlock device

That's all I can think of for now, but will add more details if I can remember. Hope this is of some use!
[One (M7) General] xdracco:
Finally managed to get the device down to 1% while remembering to capture a screen. I'm rather impressed with this phone. I use it as much as my Razr HD (another excellent device) and they last about the same....

Do you use WhatsApp? Messages won't come in then?

---------- Post added at 07:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:32 PM ----------

Don't let you misled guys of some screen on times.

Be aware when you go outside on 3g or hspda... Then the battery life goes down fast, faster then on wifi.
[One (M7) General] KennyLegend:
Also for guys getting wakelocks on maps, either disable it if u don't use it.. Or at least disable location reporting in settings of maps.

For Chrome wakelocks, disable "tilt scrolling" within developer settings of Chrome app.
[One (M7) General] chiefroberts:
Just disabled tilt scrolling in Chrome. Didn't even know about that! Does it save much battery?
[One (M7) General] KennyLegend:
Having it enabled causes wakelocks and I've heard of heavy drain because of it.
[One (M7) General] chiefroberts:
Oh right ok! I tend to have pretty high wake locks so hopefully this helps a bit. Thanks for that!
[One (M7) General] syaoran68:
For those of you using 3rd party messaging apps like whatsapp / line / viber / etc your going to get worse battery. These apps are not like your standard messaging apps. They try to maintain a very small link to the service. I use line, viber, and whatsapp to keep up with my friends. With all 3 services on I can still muster a day out of my battery. Though I'm still trying to go through all the various kernels available to see which one helps with battery.

I also use tasker to toggle my Bluetooth and wifi on and off when I reach certain locations like work or home. This is to keep my battery good.

I haven't ran out of battery on a whole day of use yet but then my screen on time is roughly only 2 hours and I'm at 45% so you do the math I should get around 3-4 hours of screen time.

These are just my thoughts.

If this is anything to go by I'm in for my best battery cycle yet, straight after I complain about it taking 8 hrs to charge.

For some reson they didnt mention what update they talk about, hope it is the one that many of us still waiting for, 1.29 and hope this will have significant impact on battery life. Big UP for TechRadar for giving The One 5 stars
[One (M7) General] xdracco:
I'm a moderate-heavy user. I go in spurts. I'll use it for an hour strait, then not use it for 4 or 5 hours unless something comes up. Then that varies. Here's a bit about the software and such:

I'm running Renovation, completely desensed. By completely, I mean I deleted Sense cruft leftover by Renovation. I use Nova launcher. I don't use Facebook, so no Facebook crap poisoning my device.

As far as stuff running in my background... here's a simplified overview:

Tweetings (my choice twitter app)

Root Call Blocker Pro

Llama

HD and SwitchPro Widget

BeeJive (use it a lot)

Chomp (use it a lot)

Gentle Alarm (i'm pretty sure all alarms are just cron jobs so that uses system stuffs)

Couple of Maps instances (core location, other)

Other defualt android stuffs.

At first, I did have what I thought was a lemon of a device. Battery life sucked. But I basically just copied everything over from my RazrHD and went from there. I hunted down the two things sucking down my battery's will to live. Leaving wifi on when sleep (and on battery of course) and anything that requires any type of GPS (google apps). Once I shut that off, this is my result.
[One (M7) General] petiha1:
Finally got a a day with my One without re booting and stuff.. Here's my stats. These are with auto sync on, Google now disabled, battery saver used for about 30% altogether. The reason hd widgets is number one in the app usage is because I tried different layouts, so I guess that messed it up. I had a lot of browsing, xda app, gaming, Spotify and all the social apps. So yeah, plenty usage.

How come you had so low app usage? Mine is always (ALWAYS!) over 80 with around 20 for each android system and kernel.

[One (M7) General] mjm128:
I'll add my input on the battery life. I get really great battery life for idling (assuming I don't have the dreaded wakelocks happening). Just check out my blog post about video playback. I did a test just playing some videos from 100% and playing it all the way down to zero.

[One (M7) General] ksarius:
Yeaaa. Don't install whatsapp, facebook, navigation, browser, games, and utilities. Be a cave man!

Turn off GPS, 3g, WiFi, sync

When you call someone talk as fastest as you can to save battery as well

Just use your phone to get 8+ hours of screen time by seeing how beautiful the phone is.

Seriously, what's the point of having 30+ hours of battery when you used it for only 4 hours?

So pathetic to see people doing all thst just to have best battery stats in xda instead of enjoying all android and HTC has to offer. Should just get a aluminium calling card then kkkkk.

Guys there is no miracle here. Screen, 3g WiFi consumes a lot of battery. But if you have those on whole time and are getting 4hrs+ of screen time, you should be happy already.

Enjoy all the phone has to offer. Worry about wake locks.
[One (M7) General] HungryPillow:
Hey guys, this is what my phone looks like after a night of sleep (about 10 hours). It drained 40%... that can't be normal right? Does Maps using 20% of the battery mean I'm getting maps wakelock? What's the best way to fix this? I do use the GPS sometimes while driving so don't really want to disable it. Thanks.
[One (M7) General] l3mm:
I would hardly call it pathetic. It wasn't to get 'the best battery stats on xda' by not using my phone. I was at work during day when I ran my test so obviously didn't use it as much. It was really to show the standby time that you can get out of the device without a lot of use. Much more than my old device so I'm happy!
[One (M7) General] KennyLegend:
Ofc ur gonna get maps wakelocks if u don't turn off gps when not in use. Turn off "location reporting" within settings of maps too
[One (M7) General] HungryPillow:
Ok I turned off location reporting in maps. Will I need to turn it on again when I use the Maps app?

Also when you say to turn off GPS, do you mean to go into Settings > Locations and then uncheck everything? Or is there some other setting to turn off GPS?

Sorry my first time using Android :o
[One (M7) General] KennyLegend:
No.. U don't need location reporting on to use maps.

Easiest way is to toggle gps is use the GPS widget or power control widget. Long press on an empty part of ur 2nd home screen and select widget with gps in it. Theres a few there.
[One (M7) General] HungryPillow:
Which setting do I need go turn on to be able to get the "Current Location" field in the From box? Just now I needed the GPS but I couldn't find the option.

I downloaded Power Toggles and found the GPS toggle there. I'll remember to turn it off when I'm not using it. Thanks for all your help!
[One (M7) General] babakmaham:
i have a Q

is there a diffrence between screen with white backgrounds or black's in battery drain?

i thought answer is yes but today i tried this .

i noticsed no big diffrence between these but in lcd panels act of pixels for both of them is needed

is this a true idea?

[One (M7) General] ra9b:
Theoretically, it's true. However, you probably didn't notice a big difference since you launch other apps. If you were to leave your screen on the entire time on your wallpaper, you'll see that there is a difference.

[One (M7) General] KennyLegend:
My latest after a long 8hr charge.

Had to give it a boost before it was dead cause I was heading out.

Pretty happy with this.

Stock rom not yet rooted and a few apps like maps, Google now etc disabled.

At first I didn't think so but the One is definitely on par if not better than the S3/4.
[One (M7) General] muayyadf1:
How do you use your phone?
[One (M7) General] KennyLegend:
Well I made the switch across from Samsung to the One. I've had the S1,2,3 and all my phones were used in a similar manner.

That is.. Approx 20+ sms a day, maybe a fee mins of calls, approx 10-20 sms on whatsapp, and the rest is browsing xda, twitter, Gmail and Facebook etc.

All browsing is on wifi. No auto syncs on except twitter client. Auto brightness except for at night when I turn down brightness while watching TV as I hate bright screen at night.

I use 'battery widget reborn " for 2 reasons... First is battery % display and the second is the night mode feature which disables all data and mutes sounds etc at a set time schedule, inset it at midnight - 8am.

The thing to note about my above screen shot is that I had just short of 7hrs screen on time and still had 15% left. I was not sparing my phone in any way at all for the "battery stats haters" out there. I pretty much hammer my phone as I'm on twitter and xda all day and night.

I am not rooted. I did plan on rooting today but my 2 yr was hospitalised so I'll hold off till after the weekend too root now. So with the help of root and greenify I could probably improve on this.

I'm impressed, really am. Only thing I don't like about the One and if I had any crib at all, it would be the lack of removal battery (and it's because I was spoiled with an extra battery kit for my s3 where I could run it right down and then swap out the battery for a fresh one).

Still, I'll get over it. ;)
[One (M7) General] petiha1:
[MENTION=3493098]KennyLegend[/MENTION] do you browse the Internet as well?
[One (M7) General] muayyadf1:
It looks to be you are a moderate user, great stats though.

I wish your child a speedy recovery.
[One (M7) General] KennyLegend:
Thanks mate. I would say I'm a moderate to heavy user. For that reason I'm happy with my battery life.

I have my phone 2 wks now and charge it when I go to bed like most others, But it wasn't until I left it switch off at 1% and then take an 8hr charge to get to 100% before I got these stats. Before that I got 5hrs, maybe 5.5hrs screen time with approx 14hours uptime.

bad battery

Hi everyone,

After seeing a lot of people's battery life looks like mine is unusually bad, I came from a sensation XL so in comparison the battery is very good to me already but then most of you have way better battery life than I do.

I have attached two screenshot, please have a look and let me know whether I'm using it wrongly.

I mainly was using the phone for a bit of phone taking, messaging, watched some youtube, browse the net a little (I didn't even play any games)

4G turned off, since I don't get 4G in my area most of the time and brightness is about 40% for most of the day.
[One (M7) General] For_itembine:
what were you expecting? 2 days?
[One (M7) General] rockson020:
Nah, I think the standby time is good, but then I see most people getting 5 hours of screen time or so, but then at most I have only had 3 and a half hours of that.

So my battery life is normal??
