With trickdroid or Viper (it will arrive soon), you can hide your battery icon.
So, it's possible

[Q] Battery draining fast when turning on 3g and phone is getting extremely hot

Got the z two days back, the ph works fine normally, but as soon as i turn on 3g it gets extremely hot and battery dropped from 100% to 75 in 30 mins. No apps are running in the background. Please help me out...
Dont know what to do. Tried updating firmware, but still the same.
What do you mean by extremely hot? (If you place the phone on your skin then remove, does it change you skin colour to a pink hue?) becuase that is extremely hot for a phone (My HTC running turn by turn navigation did that normally) The battery should not drain that fast, the only suggestion I could make is that you might have a faulty unit, it shouldn't do that.
Have you tried to freeze/disable the fast dormancy app which comes with the stock rom?

It's called "com.sonyericsson.android.wakeup".
The files are: "/system/app/fast-dormancy-wakeup.apk" and "/system/app/fast-dormancy-wakeup.odex"
For more relevant info in the Fast Dormancy subject, search it on Google. It can save battery when your provider supports it or drain when it doesn't.

Move the 2 files to another place.
You need root access.

[Q] HTC One - phone statying awake during the night - Battery Drain

Hello All,
Need to grab peoples thoughts on the cause of my phone draining my battery during the night when I'm sleeping. Evidently from the usage history my phone's been staying awake the whole time? (see attached screenshot) I'm on 4.1.2 so I am waiting for the latest update in Canada (hoping it will come soon). Anyone else having this issue on the HTC one?
If I am right you have anti virus program ?
If yes, then try to dissable it and check the usage again.

Yep I do! I've got the TrustGo Security App. What do you think it's doing?
I'll try uninstalling it and see if that changes anything. Thanks for the tip.

If it is not a big issue for you just uninstall it and check if the things are going better. But for sure to check if the antivirus is the problem do not install or uninstall any other app.

Look into better battery stats and find out which app is causing the wakelock
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Could be any number of things. I wouldn't automatically blame TrustGo (I have it and it doesn't cause wakelocks). You need an app like Better Battery Stats to see what's going on.

This is the correct answer. If you don't have wakelock stats no one can help you.
Get better battery stats export the log and post it here. Until you do that nobody can give any real answers

Can anyone help me figure out what's keeping my phone up (wake locks)

When I saw these stats from my gsam app I got pretty worried and confused. Can any one help me figure out what is exactly keeping my phone up so much?
I dont have Google now enabled so I'm not sure what the heck "Google services" are waking my device that many darn times. this is a screenshot from yesterday. I downloaded wakelock detector and I'll post screenshots from that too.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Here are screenshots from today which even though I've barely been using my phone I'm still getting pretty bad drainage. I'm on viper 1.2.1 stock kernel any help is greatly appreciated please don't tell me to reflash the Rom though as I'm almost positive it's not an issue with the Rom itself
Thanks for any help guys really appreciated

Not quite sure. I guess the first step would be to start disabling any google made apps that you dont use..... Do you have any consistent running background programs? When was the last time you rebooted your phone?

I posted screenshots from the wake lock app and it looks like I'm getting high wake locks from the lockscreen. Is this normal? I rebooted my phone and I don't have any consistently running apps that I know of.
If anyone else could give any input

my wakelock for lockscreen says 54s (x163)
IdleScreen:event_15 (29s) (x42)
IdleScreen:command_15 (25s) (x121)
But these should just be swiping up for unlock and putting in my pattern..... so..... yeah. no idea. Do you use Greenify?

[Q] Power Saver

Guys, do you keep your power saver ON the whole time? Cause I'm doing that. It seems to improve my battery life. My phones battery last more than a day, and while it's ON, I don't see any slow downs or lag which is good. I think it's better to leave it On the whole time. What do you think? Thanks!
I'm keeping Power Save ON always either. The options I've ticked there are the ones for CPU underclock and Data Management. For a week or so I've tried Power Saver combined with Snapdragon BatteryGuru but it didn't improved the battery life which I already was able to achieve so I've uninstalled it. Now I have installed Wi-Fi Matic and Smart Profiles (Free) with Power Save ON and I get the best battery autonomy.
Nope as long sleep mode im good
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
So it's better to leave it ON right? Will the notifications be delayed or the screen will slow down? What do you guys think I should do, leave it ON, or just when the battery is getting low then i'll ON it?

Leave it on. The slow down is barely noticeable, and it'll get you some extra time before the phone needs to be charged.
Personally, I only tick the cpu box.

There's no downside to leaving it on. 1.1GHz is plenty for most everything to run perfectly smoothly and it doesn't affect the GPU so gaming remains excellent. Personally I don't find it hugely useful (maybe an extra hour with my use) but it sure doesn't hurt anything

what do you mean not useful? It is actually. hehe. I mean it gives me more battery life. Do you keep yours ON all the time too?
I've found another great app for battery saving, which switch on/off data connections smarter than Power Saver. I'm talking about GreenPower Free Battery Saver / GreenPower Premium. I hope this helps you. It helped me.

Like I said, with my usage I only get about another hour, and yes that's with it on the whole time. I don't doubt that the way others use their phone could make it have a larger effect (I'm jealous of these people ) , but for me 1hr doesn't cross into the "useful" category.

Forcing the CPU to under clock won't affect your performance but potentially greatly improve battery life, so why not.

Hello All
My Sony Xperia T on 4.1.2 JB UK, always shows Android system as most battery drain and the phone never sleeps when screen is off
I have disabled lots of bloatware apps.
Location off, WiFi off, 3 g off..everything is off..
I use greenify to hibernate app but still phone never sleeps?
Any idea?
Thanks
See screenshots
Repair the phone via pcc. BTW: why are you still using 4.1? Update your phone to 4.3 and report back

Hello if you looked at screenshots, its from betterbatterystats...
Give the phone to sony and let them repair your power button. Then flash a stock 4.3 ftf and report back

I'm sorry, I couldn't see the screenshots before. You'll need a better BBS log, it would be much more reliable if you would post a log from overnight. Those one hour logs can't always give a clear enough picture. Make sure you don't use your phone, so we have a completely idle log.
Check the BBS thread for AlarmManager, that should already give you quote some pointers to work with.

The whole point of doing a thread here is so i don't have to send phone to sony to repair
Even i know i could have the phone repaired! Don't wanna spend money on repair
Phone works fine just the battery issue as mentioned above
Don't want 4.3 due to all the bugs mentioned here

Well, without a better log, we can't help you. 'Android System' contains just too much functions. It shouldn't be a problem to just get an idle log off 4hrs or more, to help solve your problem, right?

In the above quoted thread someone said the majority of the alarm manager wakelooks being Google Talk and Facebook. I concur and think these are among the first things to kick from the phone. Do you also have NFC on? Widgets on your screen?
Actually it sounds as if you did already a lot. I am not sure if I would further bother with this ROM,whatever it is.

Some disabled apps still "work" in the background. NFC for example. Or GTalk.
Investigation of these sort of wake-locks can be tedious. Unless you see it as an interesting task Did you consider simply re flashing it?
