My battery died overnight with NO usage.

Check out my SystemMonitor log:

Here's my setup:

- Fresh 3.2.0

- Netarchy 4.1.9.1-CFS BETA - Fresh Compatible

- SetCPU profile:

Screen off 384max 245min priority 100 Conservative

Temp > 50C 460max 245min Priority 98 Conservative

Charging full 1152 max 245min priority 96 Conservative

Battery < 20 768max 245min priority 88 Conservative

Battery <100 1152max 245min priority 84 Conservative

Nothing seems to be the cause, yet it went downhill and died. Any ideas?
[EVO 4G General] Sporkman:
wow thats some major drainage
[EVO 4G General] aph:
Nevermind, fixed adb issue
[EVO 4G General] justinlai:
Can you elaborate? I have the same issue with battery drainage after trying multiple ROMs and kernels for 2 weeks.
[EVO 4G General] aph:
Sorry that was a separate issue I made that reply about, where adb wasn't finding the phone. Resetting my computer fixed it.

I'm going back to Netarchy 4.1.8 and disabling SetCPU first, then if that doesn't work will do a full wipe, reflash Fresh and restore from my Titanium backup. If THAT doesn't work I'll flash Froyo Fusion and go back to stock HTC kernel.
[EVO 4G General] fachadick:
To me, what's interesting isn't necessarily the drainage itself (as crazy as as that drainage is), but the fact that the drainage isn't tied to any device or cpu usage. How does that happen?

Normally, wouldn't you see matching peaks? At least between CPU and battery?

Sent from my blah blah blah blah
[EVO 4G General] aph:
That's my expectation as well, hence the kernel rollback and SetCPU disabling, as those are the only components I can identify that would have a passive influence resulting in the uncoupled usage/drainage.
[EVO 4G General] aph:
Just to report back, did a full wipe and reflashed Fresh 3.2.0 and netarchy 1.8 and drainage seems to be back to normal. I'll stick with this for now, or maybe go to nerachy 1.9 beta to try the addtitional power savings of HAVS since it's an easy rollback.
[EVO 4G General] ddublu:
I've paid attention to all of the threads about battery life. I've done my best to optimize my device for maximum battery life but I can't believe what I'm seeing. Last night, I left my house at 5:30 with a fully charged device for a block party. At 10:30 last night my battstat widget had my battery life at 83%. I am using setcpu for screen off profiles and a few others. I have wifi and 4g off, always on days unchecked, Google Talk auto sign in unchecked and only received about 15 emails (screen was off the rest of the time).

I am rooted with baked snack 1.7 with kernel #6. What gives? Just since typing this post it has dropped to 78%. Turned screen off overnight and woke up to 51%. This is crazy.
[EVO 4G General] Wallabe:
What about your roaming setting? I would assume it has something to do with trying to find a signal also. I would suggest turning off everything. No widgets, no nothing. Run the phone for only two days with nothing on. I would go as to even turning the airplane mode on and running basic phone for a day. If that doesn't work then its the ROM or you didn't fully stop a app or delete it.

If you want it fixed you are going to have to put in some serious testing time. I'm amazed that no one has made a diagnostic app yet.
[EVO 4G General] aph:
That's not bad. The phone really only goes to about 90% charge at most unless you use the calibration method to charge all the cells. So after 18 hours it was down about half.

Check your Accounts/Sync settings and turn off Facebook, Twitter, Gmail, Google Calendar, etc. syncing.
[EVO 4G General] EliWay:
Stay away from fancy kernels that claim to have BFS, HAVS, WTF, BBQ and simply stick with Netarchy's 4.1.8 CFS Kernel. Also, don't use SetCPU, contrary to popular belief, it does NOT help with the battery at all,in fact it makes it worse. Do that and then report back. I'm sure you will notice a major improvement
[EVO 4G General] macramentonate:
Try turning your data completely off. A lot of apps automatically have access to certain functions of your phone and will tend to run in the background even after you "kill" them. With your 3g off they will not be able to do this. I've found that 3g is the main source of battery depletion and if you're like me and have way too many apps either use your power widget and turn off 3g/data or roll with a charger everywhere you go.
[EVO 4G General] macramentonate:
That's crazy. Since there's no correlation between battery usage and any function do you think maybe you have a faulty battery? Please let me know as this is very disturbing.

[EVO 4G General] neodorian:
Install Spare Parts. Look up battery usage and check partial wake usage. Something is keeping your phone awake when it should not be.
[EVO 4G General] y2ktibltd:
I've had similar battery drain issues when using profiles under setcpu. If I disable those my battery usage tapers off to a much more predictable state. Although Google Earth requires a reboot for some reason before it stops sucking down the juice.

[EVO 4G General] xlGmanlx:
ditch setcpu, its not needed with the new 3.28 base. With juice defender on and light/medium usage i can get about 24 hours per charge
[EVO 4G General] ms79723:
i was about to say that. with that kernel, you DO NOT need setCPU. any kernel talking about HAVS..you wont be needing setCPU because it interferes with that. I was on that kernel and left it off the charger over night and it only dropped 3%. and that was with tweetdeck refreshing every 3 mins

Google voice calls count toward your minutes (during peak usage) unless you have google voice show the callers id, and they are calling from a mobile phone. The unlimited mobile-to-mobile calling is all about the phone number that shows up on the caller id.

[Droid X Themes and Apps] Ultra Droid:
I appear to have a major problem with my Droid X. I was rooted, with Bootstrap installed, CW Recovery, Rom Manager - the whole nine yards. I tried to install DX2313 - Deoxed (the leaked Froyo update), using the procedure set out at this site: DROID X New Froyo Leak V23.13 | WJD Designs but I think what may be the basis of my problem was that I didn't go into recovery through bootstrap. What happened was that periodically when I power up the Droid X, it seems to go directly to CW Recovery, after the "M" startup logo. I just choose reboot and it then reboots and takes me to the desktop. This time, since I was already in CW Recovery, I just went ahead and started the process shown on that page. Which was essentially wiping cache, choosing the zip file and installing. The page says the initial installation may take longer than five minutes. I waited 15 minutes - stuck at the "M", then pulled the battery and waited a minute and put it back in. Stuck again at the "M". Waited another 5-10 minutes, pulled the battery, waited 5 minutes, put it back in and now it won't do *anything* - no "M", nothing at all.

First question: Am I totally screwed? Is there a way to recover from this. I have a nandroid backup, if I could find a way to boot to recovery.

Second question: Was the fact that I didn't access CW Recovery through bootstrap the fatal error on my part that started this whole mess? If I can recover, should I try again, the CORRECT way?

Thanks much!

-Mike

Follow-up: Just pulled the battery and put it back in, and NOW I do have the Motorola "M" logo, but it stops there - nothing beyond that.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Koroz:
You need to flash back to 2.1. Go to

http://rootzwiki.com/index.php/Smartphones/Motorola/Droid-X/Droid-X.html

reflash back to stock. Once you flash back to stock on first boot I would clear data and cache and then re-root. Then do this:

once you re-root install superuser, update superuser (Options, bottom of page).

once it updates install Bootstrap recovery, apply. Install Rom Manager, flash clockwork from inside Rom Manager.

From there I installed this 2.2 release (This backup has been more stable and better battery life with no issues compared to other releases Ive tried.)

http://alldroid.org/default.aspx?g=posts&t=806

After that I installed the new 23.13 release by P3Droid.

I will say that after a couple days of using it, I went back to my backup I made BEFORE I installed 23.13. It was just more stable on my phone. Remember, everyones phone will probably act a bit different so if these steps above don't work for you, as long as you can get in to flash back to 2.1 you will be fine, and if you are getting a M logo, then you have the ability to flash back.

Hope this helps a little at least.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Ultra Droid:
Thanks for the quick response! This may sound dumb, but with my phone just sitting there on the "M" logo, how do I do anything? Is there a way to boot into recovery? I do have a backup, but right now, I can't really turn the thing on, even.

-Mike
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Koroz:
Hi Mike,

Yes if you are hitting the M logo then you can hit the (I think its called the "bootstrap") to flash BACK to 2.1. You have to hold down the volume rocker, and the Camera button while turning on the phone then hold them for 10 seconds. Once you let go there will be a black screen, with white text letting you know its ready to flash.

Connect via USB and then flash the 2.1 SBF file back (DO NOT TRY THIS WITH BACKUPS OR ROMS, ONLY legit 2.1 SBF).

All the instructions are on the first link I posted (rootzwiki)
[Droid X Themes and Apps] romanvail:
How is your GPS? Is it accurate or off just a little when it shouldn't be?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Ultra Droid:
Not to pester you further, but OK, I've downloaded (to my PC)the SBF file from the link you provided. Did the bit about holding down the volume button, the camera button and hitting power. Got the black screen with white lettering, like you said, hooked the to the PC with USB, and at this point you say to flash the 2.1 SBF file. How? I mean, what means do I use to actually *do* this flash? Also, the SBF file is sitting on my PC, and while I'm physically connected to the PC via USB, I'm not seeing anything on the PC that indicates there's a connection.

Sorry to sound so dumb...

You need to download and install RSD Lite (download link can be found on the link posted above.)

Once you have installed RSD Lite you need to unzip the .sbf file to the desktop. Open up RSD and click on the (...) located on the top right of the screen. Find the sbf file and click start after you see a device connected on the bottom portion of the program. Then just sit back and wait.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Koroz:
You aren't, my X was my first android phone and my first attempt at roms and flashing so I know what you are going through, I am out and about though so my responses might be a little slow.

If you follow the directions on the page they will lead you through it step by step including what files you need. mmaibl2011 has it right though, you need RSD Lite.

If you have any other questions hit up the thread and ill check it when I can. Remember what makes android great isn't the software its the community behind it. As long as we keep that community alive by helping each other only good things can happen =)
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Ultra Droid:
I've now got RSD Lite set up, however it doesn't "see" the sbf file. That brings up another point. The download for the sbf file produced a non-zipped, 11.1 k file of some sort, currently sitting on my desktop. No matter what I do, RSD Lite won't interact with that file. It seems excessively tiny to be an actual file, but I've tried several additional downloads from the same link, and they all turn out the same - an 11.1 K, non-zipped file. I tried doing an online search for "sbf_flash" but haven't found an alternative download site for that file.

Is there an Alternate Plan B that I can turn to?

-Mike
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Koroz:
The SBF file should be over 400 megs in size here is my directory listing for the file (I run linux so it will look different then windows obv)

ozz@Purgatory /mnt/backups/Backups/Android Stuff/Roms and backups/stock-2.1 $ ls -alh

total 440M

drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 2010-09-10 13:37 .

drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4.0K 2010-09-14 19:41 ..

-rwxrwxrwx 2 root root 440M 2010-08-06 04:39 VRZ_MB810_1.13.6.2_1FF_01.sbf

ozz@Purgatory /mnt/backups/Backups/Android Stuff/Roms and backups/stock-2.1 $

So something is up with the file. If you have an FTP or something I can send it to you but unfortunately my ISP blocks most incoming port traffic and I don't know of any (if you can suggest) free upload sites that will sustain a 400meg file. If ya lived in the PNW I would invite you over and I would do it for you, but Ohio is a bit out of range from Auburn WA =). I am home though, so if you need more help PM me and maybe we can jump on ventrilo or something and I can walk you through it.

Click on direct download from multi-upload and download The_gift. Once it is downloaded unzip it to your desktop and it should extract an SBF file as well as the drivers needed for your computer. (might not need them if you already have adb shell set up)

Quick instruction on proper sbf...

Flash Back to Stock Android 2.1 Droid X

Also the sbf_flash(VRZ_MB810_1.13.6.2_1FF_01) file is 449 MB in total size.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Ultra Droid:
After much jockeying around, I now have RSD Lite, I finally *found* the correct sbf. file (440 odd mgs), downloaded that, started RSd, did the "..." thing and it found the sbf file. Then I booted up the Droid X into bootloader, plugged in the USB cable then nothing. The phone indicates that it's attached to a USB cable (the word "USB" in the lower left hand corner of the black screen) but the PC doesn't register the presence of the phone, and neither does RSD Lite. :confused:

-Mike
[Droid X Themes and Apps] zanix:
I use Windows 7 64-bit

I had to run RSD Lite "As Admin" and place the .sbf file in the root of my D drive and also rename the .sbf to something simple like VRZMB810.sbf (No punctuation)

This was the only way to get RSD Lite to see my phone and for the program to start flashing the .sbf
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Ultra Droid:
OK, I'll try that. Thanks for the quick response, BTW!

-Mike
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Ultra Droid:
I tried running RSD as Administrator, I moved the sbf file to the root of Drive C - it was apparently to large for Drive D on this computer - but the program still won't recognize that the Droid X is attached.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Ultra Droid:
I have Windows 7, 32 bit, rather than 64 bit.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] meshdub:
Did you replace .ini files as noted in instructions?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Ultra Droid:
Yes I did - it's in the same file as RSD Lite. The device drivers installed OK, but the PC is not showing the Droid X as being connected, and the RSD field is not showing anything in the lowers section: Model No., Port No., etc.

-Mike
[Droid X Themes and Apps] zanix:
Was there drivers included with the sbf zip?

Edit: Just saw that you said you did that...
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Ultra Droid:
Do I, maybe, need to reboot the PC first?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] zanix:
Wouldn't hurt
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Ultra Droid:
I rebooted the P.C. same result: the PC and the program do not recognize that there is a Droid X attached, via USB cable. The *phone* recognizes it, but that's as far as it goes.

Is there any way I could take it or mail it to Verizon, or a cell phone repair shop, say, and pay them to just flash the factory setting back on it? This seems to exceed my ability to restore. :)

-Mike
[Droid X Themes and Apps] zanix:
If it won't boot at all, then that could be a good possibility
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Ultra Droid:
Well it won't boot into CW recovery, and I can't get it to do much of anything else. Do you think a cell phone repair place *could* do a factory reset? I'd settle for that right now...
[Droid X Themes and Apps] mmaibl2011:
They miiiight do it for you, you could give it a shot. You could also see if anyone on this forum would be willing to do it for you.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] mmaibl2011:
BTW Ultra Droid I sent you a PM about the dropbox. Let me know
[Droid X Themes and Apps] Ultra Droid:
I want to thank *everyone* for their help on this problem. You guys were a tremendous help, and I can't say thank you enough times! What I ended up doing was getting a friend of mine (a real tech person, BTW) to restore it to the way it was out of the box - non rooted, clean slate. I then downloaded the 2.2 OTA update and installed it.

That's where I'm at right now, until I can figure out how to root it with the 2.2 OTA update in place.

Thanks again!
