Viper Rom + HelixKernel. At least this was possible with Helix v009r1, with the current v011, I can get 6,5 hours.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] firedown_3:
Hi you

You can share link down helix kernel v009r1 ?

Thanks

Note : i used rom viper v5.9
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] RogerF81:
I would recommend to use the newest Helix kernel, and you should be fine:good:
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] firedown_3:
Thank you

I try with helix kernel v12r1

Again, Tks

I see that some people are really happy with the battery life of their HTC 10. I had an HTC 10 before, then i changed it for an iPhone 6S plus, which had a great battery life but IOS... Then i bought another HTC 10 and i have the same battery life as the first one. Barely reaching 3h SOT. I am 100% stock and i want to keep like this. Do you have any ideas what to do? I don't want to use my phone on power saving mode or to stop some functions that i use. I love the phone but the battery is really unbelievable weak.

Cheers
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] :
I would highly suggest installing BBS (better battery stats) and seeing what apps you have that are draining battery. I don't yet have a 10 but looking to purchase one. That's definitely what I would do and see what's causing the drain. :)
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] MRm0g0:
BBS require root in order to see all the informations. Still the battery is really bad. 2.5h SOT
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] :
Read up on how to achieve maximum battery life, search Google and xda... Lower screen brightness 10-15%, keep sync and GPS off, disable backups in settings, when you don't use data keep it off- same on wifi ... look at app stats and see what runs alot and disable or change settings to resolve issue .... Just some tips.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] MRm0g0:
Why do I have to use my phone with 15% brightness, to keep sync off...?

When someone is paying 600 euro for a phone it shouldn't be like that. I really like the HTC 10, but it unbelievable weak the battery. I'm posting here again some screenshots. Maybe someone can give me an idea how to increase the battery life

Thanks in advance
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] heorung:
1/Disable wifi and bluetooth always scanning even when we turn them off (stupid google)

2/Uninstall FB and FB messenger , install FB lite and Messenger Lite

3/Disable network notification in wifi section

4/Whatsapp and Snap Chat cause a lot of wakelock

5/Change to 3g if your lte signal is bad

6/Turn off Google Location History (evil Google again)

7/Turn off bluetooth or NFC when you don't use it

8/Turn off only sync service which we don't use (in my case : calendar , google keep , drive , google fit data)
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] Alpert3:
Run the built-in battery test, to see if it's the battery issue.

Yours is the shortest SOT I've ever seen.

LeeDroid 3.7.0 with Helix Kernel v16
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] EnGiDrOiD:
hello depending on the screenshots ur htc 10 is held awake by some apps I would recommend u to use the boost+ app wich is included out the box and optimize the foreground and background apps
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] MRm0g0:
Thank you for your reply, I tried boost app but without any help.

I'm used with the poor battery life. I just charge it 2-3 times per day and deal with it.

I never had more than 3.5h SOT (during the weekend).

I don't know how anyone can pass this number.

Btw- I use my phone paired with my moto 360 and from Monday to Friday I listen music like 4-5h.

Even though im using my phone quite a lot, during the weekend I'm getting slightly better battery.

I'm thinking to change it to a LG g6.

To give mine +50 euro and I'll get a G6.

What do you guys think? (Sorry for the off post)
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] pinktheater:
That's extreme charging.

Just the other day I reached the 7 hours screen time :D

Naptime, Greenify, Helix Kernel and LeeDroid ROM.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] htctouchelfin:
I don't know how the hell you can reach that screen on time hours :eek: this is my best with helix kernel viper 5.10 and hmp magsik module for s820
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] ludovicien:
I was at 3.5 hours screen time at first, down to below 2 most days now. No change in usage. I just charge it.

How do you do????:confused::confused::confused::confused::eek::eek:
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] pinktheater:
I use Helix Kernel in Battery mode, LeeDroid latest version, Naptime, Greenify and of course the normal recommendations.

Those combinations have done the trick.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] htctouchelfin:
Are you using default setting on naptime or have you changed some of the values?
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] pinktheater:
I use Aggressive Doze, re apply after wakeups and disable while charging.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] noname729:
what did you set in Greenify?

are you using Google Now/Assistant?

And opening the location service?
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] kamwaikin:
I think my sot on 7.0 is worse than 6.0 slightly…

Battery sometimes drains 2% in a minute:crying:

Tried everything include scanning, wifi optimization. Everything is fine except this annoying problem.

Here's my power usage
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] hked2k.p:
I am a light user, I turned off the following services which gave me roughly 5 hours of screen on time on the HTC 10:-

1. Location > turn off Wi-Fi scanning

2. Location > turn off Bluetooth scanning

3. Location > change to Battery Saving Mode (turn on High Accuracy Mode, if need)

4. Location > turn off Google Location History

5. Reduce Brightness Level (50% for me which fits my daily needs)

6. Turn on Automtic Brightness funcation

7. Wi-Fi > turn on Wi-Fi Optimization

8. Turn off Smart boost function in the built-in Boost+

9. Stop all battery-drained Apps by using the Optimize Background Apps function in Boost+

Please let me know your thought on this, thank you.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] pomponazzo:
1. WiFi scanning on

2. BT scanning on

3. High accuracy on

4. Google location history off

5. About 50% brightness

6. Automatic brightness on

7. WiFi battery optimization off ( If I turn it on, Airplay doesn't work properly)

8. Smart Boost off

9. All apps but Adguard optimized in background by Boost+

I usually get about five and a half hours of SOT. Nothing fancy, completely stock.

Only get about 3h sot, stock.. normale usage.. thinking about flashing Leedroid with helix kernel.. should already improve?
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] m.4_ts@yahoo.com:
I'll just post screenshots.. All the details of what im on will be there..
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] cnu4u:
What rom is this? Looks pretty cool.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] m.4_ts@yahoo.com:
It was there, on the first screenshot.. PureFusionOS..
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] Rotten Ross:
Currently sat at just under 2hrs SOT, unrooted stock , sync limited most methods to limit usage done and battery is at 38%. Not sure if that's any good.

How are stock users getting decent SOT?
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] Rotten Ross:
How is that possible? I'm run pretty much the same and only get about 3.5hrs SOT.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] pomponazzo:
Sorry, I wish I had some kind of magic recipe... But that's pretty much it.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] Rotten Ross:
It's just strange how people running the phone near the same get totally different SOT, I'm tempted to root but I won't be able to use my banking app
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] leonardojt:
Try magisk
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] mwake4goten:
I think that even with all optimisations it can come down to mobile and wifi quality and the amount and quality of apps installed on the phone. Infact, I only manually update my apps. Most apps don't need auto update, every month I go through Google play and see if there are any interesting features added if so I check the reviews and make sure there has been major complaints about it, and then and only then will I update.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] Rotten Ross:
Not sure if my screen on time has improved since I've flashed viper10 and helix. I mean the screen off time is pretty good, just feel that screen on time is poor. Currently screen on is worse than stock running the same settings etc. Will do more testing

I don't use greenify just boost+ at the moment.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] JazLiew:
Looks like your phone has been held awake for quite a long time (it isn't SOT per se), you may have some wakelock problems. You could have a better idle time, and improving your SOT with the extra juices, I suspect it is either caused by apps not letting your phone go into deep sleep mode or you may have this problem which you can find the solution to at the few latest post. You can also check your wakelocks with GSAM Battery Monitor too, just try to click on the 'App Usage' tab and then 'Android System', if it is the BatteryServiceUpdateStats_3 wakelock.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] Rotten Ross:
Looks like it is that "fault" with the battery port. What a strange problem

Also kernel is using 14.9% too not sure if that's right
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] JazLiew:
I wouldn't call yours a problem now, since it's only 9 times over the duration of many hours. I've got like 70k+ times in an hour so..
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] Rotten Ross:
Then I'm stuck to what is keeping my phone awake and causing the drain

Here my stats from 100-1
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] UOB ZIKRI SODEC_28:
1hour per 9-10% battery

I use this phone as usual but never turn off the screen. I got 1hour SOT per 9-10% battery. I'm a mid to heavy user of this phone tho
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] Rotten Ross:
So you get 10hrs SOT?

Also any idea what could be keeping my phone awake for nearly 2hrs, all apps than can be optimised with boost+ are. I'm running viper10 with helix (zeroinfinity) and screen off time is great just something is keeping my phone awake. I've used wakelock detector but not really sure what I'm looking for.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] Rotten Ross:
How is your held awake so low? Mine seems really high.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] YuriZero:
Stock rom. Auto sync on, power saving on, 4g on all the time. Brightness auto with the slide all the way to the left most of the time.

That's about the usual maximum I get on a typical use. It ranges from 4h to 5h 30m, under the same conditions.

I use Android 7.0, with the 1 July (received in August) 2007 security patch for Europe international, version 2.41.401.41.

However, the system kind of uses a little too much than what I would expect compared to the previous patch from January 2017. I'd say it lasted more before the patch, but not by much.

[IMG="usage"]https://i.imgur.com/lGzh4yR_d.jpg?maxwidth=640&shape=thumb&fidelity=medium[/IMG]
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] Rotten Ross:
Power saying mode always on?
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] YuriZero:
Yes, since if I'm not looking at the phone it's pointless to have data transfer in the background.

I've seen someone say to disable power saving to get more battery, but I don't quite follow on that logic and I didn't try it yet.

I don't usually use the phone in the sunlight, and I find that it kind of lacks luminosity as well compared to my Xperia SP which had both lower and higher ends much better. So it's kind of disappointing at this price point.

I'm also using srgb colors with two steps towards the colder tones.

Boost is also enabled with smart boost, foreground and background app control.

My signal seems strong on 4g, however it is slower than I expected for some reasons, probably because I'm not in a very developed area. On my Xperia SP the signal for 4g is very wreak, but 3g is fine. On the other hand, the 3g signal is wreak on htc 10. I'm using different SIMs tho, but from the same provider. I didn't try switching them, but I expect similar results.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] Rotten Ross:
Crazy that, I'm rooted with helix tweaked for battery using greenify/naptime and I only get around 3.5hrs screen on time which is pretty much the same as stock unrooted. The overall stand by time is good normally around 36hrs but I can't seem to get the screen on time that others have achieved using the same settings.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] YuriZero:
If I'm turning to heavy use, for example Skype all the time, while browsing some too and doing other stuff, I get around 3:30 hours SOT as well. Also, sometimes I have apps that go crazy and battery drains a lot while not using it. About 10% per night or more sometimes. If I activate extreme power saver I lose about 2%.

I'm having a lot of apps installed, about 91 showing in the app manager.

Also, keep in mind that typically my phone is not used for more than a day most of the times. So if you get 36 hours while not using it, you can't really expect to have much more SOT. Try draining its battery in a single day and see how long it lasts.

If you get more than 5 hours then the rest of the battery is going to the background usage of the apps when you use it over 2 whole days.

I always found this stupid... Why would I want an app or service to run in the background if I'm not using it... I don't like that I have to turn to custom OS to get control over my phone... And people buy that crap about "if you don't use it, just uninstall it" or "it starts faster and uses less resources to start".... But it also uses more resources while running its services in the background... And I don't even have the option to do something about it without extreme solutions. Too bad I can't turn to a custom OS for the time being.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] Haldi4803:
just leaving this here....
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] davidbejar:
I´ve noticed the same thing from 3 months ago, my battery is giving me 2h45 hours of SoT. Much lower than the 3h30-4h00 of Sot from last year with the same settings and same ROM.

Also I noticed my screen is draining much battery now than before, on stand-by the device is cold (27C-30C) but after turning on the screen, not matter if I´m just reading a long web page or a PDF document without even touching the screen, the device begins to get warmer and rise the temperature to 35C-37C, even worse if I use Whatsapp just for messaging, temperature can goes up to 41C. (ambient temperature where I live is 18C-25C)

A few week ago I noticed the battery drain was crazy, 2h20 SoT from 100% to 2% using Kcal Color Calibration from CleanState Kernel, I disabled it and things got a little bit better but nothing like a year ago. I don´t know if is it posible to cause some damage to the screen with color calibration or is just a big coincidence for me, because after starting to use color calibration the SoT began to decrease really fast.

I´m planing to replace my battery in the next few months but it´s hard to get replacements for HTC devices where I live, and I´m not sure if the battery is the only problem because my stand-by time is great (4-5%% for a 8 hours by night).
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] pinktheater:
I'm getting close to 8 hours of SOT with moderate gaming.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] Rotten Ross:
That's mental
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] Rotten Ross:
Would you care to share your set up? As I'm struggling to get 3hrs
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] pinktheater:
Sure!

I use Naptime and Greenify, that's a good combo.

LeeDroid latest ROM, Magisk Root with Magisk SELinux Permissive module and Helix Kernel v16.

Settings wise, i have most of the common settings . 30 Seconds screen timeof, all sync disabled, location history disabled, no live wallpapers, no widgets, etc.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] taker714:
If you know of any way to get better battery life, please do let me know... 2 and a half hours is in most times the best that I can get out of my phone. Struggling to get to 3 hours and I sometimes get even 2!

I use Viper 10 and ElementalX kernel. Really don't know what to do...
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] Rotten Ross:
Why version 16? I'm running 17, running leedroid Still struggling to get over 3.5hrs. My set up is pretty much the same. I also use doze GMS+ and enable dose got GMS (Google play services). I only ever 3.5hrs SOT per charge (100-1%) thats if I go 24 or 36hr with out charging.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] mwake4goten:
I find the biggest culprit is the screen.... I've gotten pretty good at viewing the screen at lowest brightness setting and I get about 3.5/4.5 hrs. If I raise the brightness then I get much less say 2.5 to 3.5 hours. I wish this phone had removable battery technology then I would have bought 2 or 3 at the launch and then never had to worry about battery life for a long time...

I also do the cache wipe in recovery regularly as once a week or after I install apps or manually update on Google Play.

I work night shifts and I used to be able to start work at 11 and come home in the morning with 70 percent leftv when I first bought the phone. Now when I return I have about 20 - 30 percent left. I do have a lot of apps (159) but most apps I have disabled notifications and I set my WiFi to go to sleep when the screen is off. Battery Saver for GPS. I Greenify most apps that that I find on the top of the list from Gsam battery app. Bluetooth/wifi scanning off.

Also got rid of Google now and got Cortana as I find that has lower memory usage and less wakelock. Disabled BlinkFeed.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] CaptainCode:
Hi, I'm just getting around 3 hrs of screen on time and that is a bit short in my opinion. My HTC 10 was in repair twice. At the first time they reflashed the software and at the second time they replaced the battery but it didn't help. The WIFI and LTE connections are really bad, so could that be the cause of the high battery drain? I'm using the stock Nougat firmware.

Thanks for your help
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] Devzz:
SOT is ridiculous on this phone, especially with Android 7! I get 1-2 hours a charge, but have to charge my phone 4+ times a day to keep it above 60% because otherwise it conveniently decides to reboot. Depending on the % of the battery that it rebooted on, it will reset my settings on Nova Launcher such as my frequently used apps, or changes my animation speeds, or changes from 4G to 3G. Sometimes all of them in one go. Greenify helps a little bit but doesn't fix the random reboots and frankly, HTC support is the equivalent of throwing the phone in the bin, except it takes them longer to **** me around.

If anyone has come across a fix for the random reboots, please point me in the right direction!
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] chrisurwin:
I've just returned mine under warranty today due to this, I've been running stock all along but in the past few weeks, I've gone from 4-5 hours of SOT to 1.5hrs taking it down to 30%. It will just randomly reboot (and then bootloop until plugged in) anywhere between 20% and 45%. I've done factory reset and wiped cache and it made no difference.

I've not had anything but a HTC phone since around 2000 when they were OEM, but I think this may well be my last.

I'll let you know if they solve the problem.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] ChampDAN:
Guys, these are the exact same results I was having with Stock ROM. Now running latest Maximus HD with latest Unlocked US firmware and the latest ElementalX Kernel. Can someone explain why does the OS and Kernel use up so much battery? I didn't choose any PnP Thermal Profile in Aroma, all were unselected and I left it as it is assuming the best has already been chosen by Llabtoofer.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] titus_smpg:
I did wipe my internal storage and installed LeeDroid with the built in Kernel. Got around 4h SoT. Now I am on purefusion 7.1.2 adn getting 5h easily with some gaming and lots of social media. Maybe you should start from ground up.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] ChampDAN:
Cool, thanks. Sounds like a good plan. But let me first try calibrating my battery by discharging and charging. Will report back.
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] XDA_RealLifeReview:
When you sleep, does your phone sleep, or does it stay up all night and crunch 1s and 0s? Rate this thread to express how you deem the speed at which the HTC 10's battery drains under standby conditions. A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

On stock, 0 to 1 % overnight.

Rooted with xposed 1 to 2% overnight.

I had a fully charged 10 with viper with elemental x kernel off the charger all night. I have lots of syncing accounts and only lost a couple percentages. better than I was thinking it was going to be. I also used it all day long streaming music and other normal usage and around 12am that night still has 30% left. after things settle down battery life gets way better, it seems the first day or 2 after setting everything up its pretty bad.

whatttt, i leave wifi and 4g on and i almost lose 1% battery per hour. why my phone sucks???
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] cvsolidx17:
I had this happening until I disabled Google Now
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] SiAmaze:
It's pretty confusing. When the phone battery is at higher levels, it drains much faster. For example, I recharged the battery at 7 pm yesterday and used it for 6 hours (here and there and it fot to 15%. Then i slept through the night and only 3 or 4% battery power was used. Wifi was on
[HTC 10 Real Life Review] dlads:
It won't be 4g and wifi. It'll be an app or apps. Anything with a large footprint which can take advantage of wifi will use it. For example, email, Facebook etc. Anything like that, wifi alone won't use very much at all.

---------- Post added at 11:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:11 AM ----------

Also repeated the process last night, last 1% good times, wifi and 4g both on and location.

[HTC 10 Real Life Review] ChronoReverse:
0.6%/hr (phone starts at 78%).

I just turn off the screen and set the phone down as I sleep. If the phone had been plugged in then it might only drop 1% in the 6-7 hours I sleep but the gauge isn't accurate from 90-100%
