First time post here. I've mostly been dissapointed with my battery life. Attached are my screenshots. As you can see screen one time was only 30 min but with a drain of 40%!. I played music for about an hour, used chrome for about 5 min and played one game of scramble with friends. Is this just a crappy battery?
[One (M7) General] Dreadsteel:
Get this app called greenify to suspend apps like kao talk. It wakes up your device too much.

You just sold me on tasker. Will get it and give it a try
[One (M7) General] xcao01:
But is that even the problem? It's only using 2% of the app battery drain. I don't see that being a reason why im getting such a big drain =/

Beats audio may be draining your battery
[One (M7) General] xcao01:
I recently turned on beatsaudio, but I'll give it another try with it off. I'm new to android systems so would 1 hour of audio playback really cause tihs big of a drop, it seems like the OS is whats causing most of the drain (2 hours and 20 minutes of wake time.) This could probably be patcheable by HTC right?
[One (M7) General] Magpir:
Yes it should be solved with software upgrade . I notice that on mine watching a 4 min clip from YouTube 1080p with beats audio on drains battery of 1% per minute on wifi
[One (M7) General] xcao01:
Hopefulle that solves the problem then. My other biggest problem is from overheating and drainage when playing games(gba emulator, scramble) and using chrome. Even with just chrome it seems to spike in heat and I go through battery REALLY fast, 30 min of scramble or an emu takes me down 15-20 percent, which is kinda silly. I'll try to get a picture through gsam with the temps and the drain =/ Double whammy for me, get horrible drainage when idle AND horrible drainage when sing apps.
[One (M7) General] WolfDale7:
Try out the trial edition. I've recently been having trouble with the home/outside network mainly because I'm using the lowest accuracy setting. But it doesn't bother me much because as I continue leaving the general area of my house, things begin to stabilize.. (when I'm close to the cell towers I scanned for tasker, it enables the house profile. When I. About 2-10 miles away, It sometimes activates these profiles.. So yea :() there are other options of determining your location but those use up battery. Will definitely give NFC tags a try, and better yet, NFC tags and tasker go hand in hand :)

Here's the trial edition of tasker: http://tasker.dinglisch.net/download.html

Anyone know a good site for information on wake locks? And how to lower them? There are many Android wake locks that I am unfamiliar with.

Thanks
[One (M7) General] Hunt3r.j2:
Better Battery Stats is how you diagnose wakelock. MSM_HSIC_HOST is modem wakelock. Either you can figure out the cause by using Shark for root, or changing sync settings of some accounts, etc..

Otherwise, google it.
[One (M7) General] Mrkrackie:
How does everyone get such amazing battery life? I struggle to get twelve hours with only 2-3 hours of screen time. I currently have almost everything turned off and the screen brightness set to low with battery saver enabled.:confused:
[One (M7) General] maskfen126:
1day 21hours up, screen on time 5 hours. Lots of YouTube and listening to music so audioout_4 was well over 1 hour. I noticed this goes up anytime the speakers are on, even if the screen is on. So a 5 minute YouTube video, for example, adds 5 minutes to audioout_4. So, for me, even though bbs and wakelock detector say 2 hours kept awake, it's more like 45 minutes when you take away audioout_4 because I'm sure the phone needs to be awake to make noise, right? 90% of the other wake locks are msm_hsic and wlanrx which I don't know how to fix. But I'm really pleased, I could only dream of a battery life like this on my previous phone. First ever post btw, hi everyone.
[One (M7) General] mettleh3d:
TL;DR: 9:03H screen on time, 16% remaining

I wanted to know, but haven't seen anyone try it so I gave this a shot overnight just for kicks. Never got the 7 hrs some of you are getting so wanted to clear my paranoia about whether my battery would be less capable than most. It's pretty good I think :]

so, finally, are you guys disapointed with battery life or not ?

I'm looking at getting one soon. I don't give a **** about no sd card slot. On my Xperia Arc I've only used 2gb since 2k11 !

But battery life is my concern. I have to make it a full day, at least 15 hours without charging. Otherwise I'll have to buy portable charging device.
[One (M7) General] craftycarper1:
No problems here with me about the battery, i know with light use i can last over 2 days (2½ hrs screen) and moderate use almost 30 hrs (approaching 5hrs screen) and i know if i really wanted to stretch the usage with minimal use i could reach 3+ days on battery.
[One (M7) General] puremind:
The battery is the best you can get at the moment (see table above), except for the Motorola devices. You don't need to worry considering the great browsing performance.

[One (M7) General] Phil750123:
to solve my wakelocks , i turned off google now .

Also i used mp3 checker as i had a dodgy mp3 file what was causing huge problem, deleted them and solved.

Now from draining 5% an hour on standby it does about 1% in 5 hours.

(see the battery thread for detailed info or pm me)
[One (M7) General] mettleh3d:

Media server is causing wake locks for me. audio_out 4 app uid 1013 caused over an hour of wake locks. My battery life has been bad. Anyone have an idea how to fix this?
[One (M7) General] gsusx:
Agree. Get a lot of media wake locks just using the stock app.

This phone is great. No two ways about it. But trying to get to the bottom of the wake lock issues and the android kernel hogging is draining me almost as much as the battery now. :(

Battery

I have to say that the HTC one 64 mb Devloper (The one I have), has unbelievable battery life. I have

my work MS active exchange service pushing, along with Gmail numerous emails, phone calls, txts,

and Internet. A med heavy user (I am in sales). I can report the following with the last 3 phones I have had:

This is running from 6:00 am - 11: pm on a work day: Numbers are battery left at 11:00 PM

Samsung galaxy S3 - almost never made it to 11:00 pm, would have to charge around 9:00 pm

Nexus 4 - A 11:00 pm would have an average of 30% battery left

HTC one dev - consistently have 50 - 60% at 11:00 pm. Outstanding battery life.

I can also say that I have the Nova Launcher Prime (tried on SGS3 and Nexus 4) it greatly

hit battery performance. Avg loss of 10-20%.

Bottom line is that the HTC one is the BEST phone I ever had for battery life. I am really surprised it beat out

the Nexus 4. I have owned all the phones listed and have used them the exactly the same way.

Decided to try power saver on the entire time to see what the results would be like. anybody know what brightness the screen is set at with power saver on? i had it at 100% then put power saver on, used the phone on wi-fi when at home and 3g when out. was on course to hit 8 hours screen on time but was too busy so it was on standby for a long time. if i had the 8 hours free i would most likely have easily got it.

i cannot be bothered trying to get more out of it. i like the screen bright. I think this will be my last post on the battery thread. i am happy with the phone that is all that matters to me.
[One (M7) General] rkial:
Thats pretty bad.

How does the phone handle other games?
[One (M7) General] Magpir:
In power saver mode . Only 2 cpu cores run . Brightness will be below medium. Data connection will sleep when long period of idle. There are conflicting theories on the net which say quad core operation results in more battery saving . Since the cores do not have to upclock more but share the workload under lower cpu speeds. I am yet to test this but it does on first look makes sense .

It's not the screen or cpu or gps which drains battery on this phone . It's the 3g/4g radio . ..the famed 9 hour battery test by gsmarena was done in WiFi . But if u were to do the same test on 3g/4g the result will be half .. that's what most of us are getting here in terms of screen on time .

I have been using the phone under various scenarios exclusively

WiFi browsing

3g/4g browsing

Gps navigation.

Only 3g/4g browsing drains battery most

[One (M7) General] anilkuj:
all the people who are getting 6-7 hours are mostly on wifi , i doubt you can get that kind of screen time on LTE with regular usage as in not just testing by keeping screen on with low brightess just for benchmarking.

having said that 6-7 hours wifi is still pretty good.
[One (M7) General] ra9b:
That's weird. With arhd 8, I get about an hour of screen life every 20 percent. I think that's good. Flash the team m7 kernel.
[One (M7) General] Magpir:
i get the same with the stock rom too.

so whats so great?
[One (M7) General] schrickm5:
stock

I dont think custom roms alone are any better than Stock. What probably IS beneficial in Undervolting on custom kernels.

I am getting over 5 hours with 25 hours uptime, of which 18 hours are on wifi, 2% remaining. Mainly surfing and watching vids, and listening to music.

[One (M7) General] syaoran68:
undervolting really doesnt save THAT much battery life you realize. its only maybe like 5-10% the main thing that undervolting helps with is heat output when your at the higher mhz. though that does save some life itself since the battery isnt running as hot.

---------- Post added at 09:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:36 PM ----------

i'm on the se7en kernel as well. basically so far its lower the minimum frequency to 135mhz so that your phone idles at a lower power usage. and it has a smartmax governor as well which works loads better than the stock ondemand one. I'd just make a nandroid of your current setup and then flash the kernel. if you end up no liking it just revert to the nandroid and you'll be back on the original kernel.

Hello, yes I had my One exchanged for multiple reasons (dust under the screen, glue under the lens, poor battery life).

30% in 2 hours usage consisted of playing around with the phone, connected on Wifi, reinstalling and configuring everything. Also sent around 30 sms & 1 MMS. Power saving on.

Mind you, it was out of the box, so I didn't have a chance to cycle it properly yet.
