HTC one battery 4.1.2 vs 4.2.2 - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, I was wondering if there would be a significant difference in battery life between 4.1.2 and 4.2.2. Both would be the sense roms from HTC and not aosp.

probably not significant but by design 4.2 should be better than 4.1

I personally have seen a significant increase in batter since updating to 4.2.2

scarecely recentn
Darn.. It makes me sad since it won't be another month or two until sprint gets the update...

I am also seeing a noticeable improvement in the battery life, plus the ui and scrolling is smoother on 4.2

MIUI has awesome battery life. It's the best in my opinion.
I will give my personal opinion every phone i had has a horrible battery life only nokias e series would last me a whole day under heavy duty use. Todays phones with huge touch screen and widgets and always syncing they all suck the batteries like nothing under heavy use welcome to 2011 tech using 2003 batteries.

Best rom for battery life

Hi guys,
Looking for a bit of end user advice.
Im off to glasronbury festival tomorow and want to take my inc s. As those of you have been might know the ques for the phone charging tent tent are massive so want to try avoid them for as long as possible.
To the people who have used a variety if custom roms, which has the best battery life?
I plan to turn if mobile data etc for the majority of the time and don't mind if its stock android or sense based
Thanks in advance

There aren't many roms to choose from, but android revolution has been quite good on battery life for me. And I'm a pretty heavy user.

Thanks for your input. Was the sense or sense-less version?

I am really satisfied with the battery life in Android Revolution HD
IMO you'll regret the decision to take the phone...
anyway, revolution hd is good, i use it without sense.
I have reason to take my inc, the this years glastonbury app is actually really useful as it has a clash finder and a reminder function. So many years I have missed things due to losing track of time (i may have not been sober to be fair)
To everyone else, thanks for the advice. Looks like i will be going for revolution!

Ice cold sandwich battery life

Is it just me or is the battery life on ice cold sandwich pretty bad. I'm struggling to get through the day on full charge. Never had that problem with other sense roms.

Battery is great for me
Lasts me two days
Generally its a bit more than 4 hours of screen use per charge
Although I do have it undervolted
What do you use your phone for?

its awful for me as well, even when I switched to conservative as the CPU govener
What version are you guys on?
What's your maximum clock speed?
Any modifications?

I've had awful battery life on every version I've tried, 4.3, 6.1.1, 7.2 & 8.1.1 The only mod I made to was changing the CPU governor. Tried several, SmartAss, SmartAss v2, Conservative off the top of my head. Could never get the battery to last more than 7 or 8 hours. And that was if I hardly used the phone.
I love the ROM but its completely impractical for me to use it the battery life is that poor. Using CM 7.2 I can get over 24 hours out of a charge depending how much I use the phone
Well I set up CM7 and ice cold using the same apps, kernel, clock speed and everything and got very similar battery life. Interesting.

I'm going to give 8.2 a go over the next few days see if thats helps. I used to got a lot of random reboots on previous versions. Reading the change log it looks like those bugs have been resolved, maybe that is something to do with it
I am pretty much running it out of the box without any modifications. Thought asop roms would work better in terms of performance and battery life. Looks like I might have to ditch this for another rom

If you have the leaked radio from new ics then battery is terrible. I'm reverting back to other ics radio on that I got at least 24 hours with screen on time 3 hours and I check my phone a lot

I think it was the .28M one when I did all this
But, I am having great battery life on ice cold 8.2 atm with the .11M radio everyone is complaining about
Weird. I have my phone undervolted at the moment though, but I have with most of the roms/kernels I have used

We have this phone in our family, and have been waiting for ICS update. But the reviews are quite bad. Seems like the phones hardware isnĀ“t good enough to handle ICS smoothly. A lot of reports about slow phone with a lot of lagging.
Maybe it works better with a rooted phone though.
When I was on ice cold battery life was excellent but after I backed up the Rom, tried a different rom, then restored the ice cold backup, battery life was terrible

Thought HTC said Sense 4.0 couldnt be on Incredible S?

So I was on HTC's website today just looking, then I saw they had another phone coming out. Desire C. Looked at the specs here http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_desire_c-4759.php HTC didnt have it on their website yet. When we get our update rolled out it is only coming with Sense 3.6 because they said our specs were too low. But when you look at the Desire C specs they are worse than the Incredible s and its getting sense 4.0.
Desire C specs
600mhz processor
512mb RAM
Incredible S
1GHZ processor
768mb RAM
Why is HTC holding out on us!!!!!
Im running NIKHIL007's Project X and its awesome!! cant understand why HTC wouldnt be able to have sense 4.0 included.
Are their developers not as good as the guys here on XDA?
Giving us the latest version of sense would kind of defeat the purpose of buying a new phone
They would be shooting themselves in the foot so to speak

True enough. But I dont go and buy a phone based on if it has the latest software. I would buy a new phone based if it has better specs. They should be keeping their current users happy no?
This phone's old now. They want people to ditch it and go pick up the latest HTC phones. Hence why they brought the one series out.

They call it the One Series because there'll only be one.

But there isn't one. There's v,x,s,xl. Hence why they want each HTC customer to update to one of those. There's one for each price bracket etc.

Just think its stupid is all. They bring the update out but can't include the newest software . It's the last update for our phone. The one series will have a few more. Well at least one.

2 words; Project X. It's a brilliant rom with sense 4.
As said, the manufacturers aren't going to update forever as people wouldn't buy new phones!
We're all waiting for nik's new sense 4 rom, project x transformer. It'll revolutionize the inc s industry. The virtuous infinity is a one s based rom too, just that it's a little bit oversized (no hate).

Sorry, but... what's it with sense4 that makes it so special? (I know it is ICS, but except for that)
I think they all kinda looks the same after 3.0...
And I haven't used sense since over a year ago, so haven't really bothered with all different sense versions

For me its the whole user interface. I have been one to love sense since it came out. Loved it when I had a windows phone and still love it with android. Ive tried other UIs but still like sense way more. i like the look of sense 4.0 just some minor differences and big differences between 3 and 4.
But yes I cant wait till NIK releases Project X Transformer. Since he started making ROMs Ive been with his work since, only reason I am staying with my Incredible S

I could last the whole day on niks prj X Rom with 3g with moderate to heavy usage. 10 percent drain overnight at the most?
ARHD GB and Trinity also gave me excellent battery.
Icecold and CM7 continued to deplete my battery even when on standby. Can't last a day with icecold!

12hours with 3G, data and wifi on all the time and I've got 57% left.
Overclocked to 1.3GHz and I've been using my phone quite a lot. And I'm on ice cold
When idle it drains <1%/hour for me.
Anyway, seems like Sense roms have decent battery life
Now I'm gonna stop hijacking this thread.

These phones may be old compared to the One Series etc but at least they had removable batteries, full size sims and better memory options....I love the One X but the lack of removable battery put me off so I went for the Galaxy S3 which is proving to be fairly good.
All I know is that I'm never getting another HTC phone again
