some one told to send my device back ,and i want to chack with you last time what you say.
even when my phone power off i lose battery ,before few days i was left him with 64% and power off for 24 hours when i power on i was on 6 %
i want you to chack my karnel wacklocks , and sensor
wait for your answers tnx alot

The Same Issue here
Help Plz

Your wake locks look just fine....
So it's losing battery when it's completely off? That doesn't sound right at all

yep even when the phone power off i lose battery

That doesn't sound right. I was getting quite a lot of battery drain during screen off/sleep, not as much as you mind, but I disabled Google maps, installed a third party navigation app and tuned Google location settings off and pow...I'm on my second day without charging and still on 50% battery! Really has made a big difference. And the third party nav app works offline so no data usage.

i dont think this will work for me ,what you think about the sensor wakelocks?

Mine look exactly like that. I don't know why audio_out needs a wake lock, but it does. I get about 2% drain per hour though. Really do try disabling the location services. That uses a lot of battery.

What's your CPU bin number ?
Look at the file /proc/last_kmsg
search for where it says something like [0.602014] c0 1 acpuclk-8064 acpuclk-8064: ACPU PVS: 5
That PVS number is your CPU bin number quality. 0 is the lowest (bad quality & high drain) and 6 is the highest (best quality & reduced drain)
If you've got a PVS 0,1,2 or maybe 3 you should consider going and swapping the phone with your provider.

This is the second thread this OP has started about the same issue. He refuses to accept that he can't achieve 0% battery loss when the phone is idle or even powered off. I really don't know what we can do for him... :/

Actually, this is quite correct. No battery technology to date retains charge forever--the physics simply aren't there. As a battery ages, it will deplete if it is not fed a constant charge. Now, I'll grant you that this depletion is VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY SLOW, but it's still there. My Droid RAZR MAXX would be incredibly low on battery in about 4 days even completely turned off.
EDIT: Re-reading the OP's post here, I noticed he cites that he lost alot of battery while the phone was "powered off" for 24hrs. Likely, I suspect he had "Fast Boot" mode turned on, which actually puts the phone into a hibernate mode rather than actually powering it down completely. These are not the same thing.

Need Help w/ Battery (Yes, I've done my research as best I could)

Ok, so ever since I upgraded to CM6 (which I LOVE) I've had serious battery issues and I've tried to fix it by installing Pershoot's kernel and I have SetCPU to underclock in depending on what battery life it's at. Also, I've wiped my battery stats and I've calibrated my battery already.
Today my battery was at 64% after only 3hr and 26min. I don't have GPS on, auto backlight is on, 3g/2g and sync are on. If it makes any difference I have the Korean radio installed (which btw improved my reception a lot! ). After about 9hrs and half, my nexus one died. As per usage, I wouldn't say it's much at all because I'm in class most of the time and I've only talked on the phone for about 1 min, browsed a few websites, and sent only a few texts.
I keep reading on the forums about how people are getting 1-2% lower per hour while on standby but the % I reported earlier, my battery's draining at over 9%/hr!
I really just want to be one of those people that can say that "I still have 50% left after 12 hours!" lol
So, is there anything else I can to increase battery life? Is my battery just crap? Any recommended setCPU profiles?
If you're one of the users that get really good battery life from your Nexus One, please tell me what you did to get it that high! Thanks!
Don't use setCPU to manage battery life, only to overclock. It overrides the kernel's settings. Sounds like you need to wipe and flash the rom again. Then gradually add applications you want, something is sucking battery life.
Last, buy a new battery.
CM6 has less than stellar battery life. If you check the "help with my battery life" type threads, you will see most of the OP's have CM6 as their ROM. Try another ROM, you will get better results.

Quoted for lies
I'm using CM6 and I get between 22-32 hours on a single charge. I just use the kernel that comes with it and i almost always have sync on. No GPS or bluetooth though.
Are you using a battery you purchased on ebay? Or are you using the stock battery? ebay batteries last me about 9-12 hours and die. The stock battery is amazing
Exactly the same situation as you:
CM6.
N1.
Student.
Experiences massive drainage in short amounts of time with low usage.
Tried everything.
I'll now be trying Enomther, because yes I have heard CM6 users get worse battery life.
Just a viewpoint on what I'm facing. For the past week I've gone to bed with 100% battery and woken up ~7 hours later on 75%. I've tried WCDMA and GSM auto settings and neither male a difference.

Thanks, I'm glad I'm not the only one with this problem. I thought I was being an idiot by doing something wrong...
I've calibrated my battery several times already while trying to fix this issue. Could that have killed my battery life?
1) Discharging the battery below 10-15% is bad for the battery, doing it many time will destroy the battery, making it last just about nothing.
2) Check CPU usage - download System Monitor or some other app like that, and check the running frequency of the phone. When you just run the program and don't touch the phone, it should float around 300 MHz. If you have it locked on 998MHz - you have an app that got your CPU stuck in a loop.
3) Download some app that stores battery stats, and check your discharge current and battery capacity - that way you'll know if it's your battery dead or your apps drawing the juice.
Sorry, double post.

crap, all the guides that i've read regarding calibration told me to discharge it completely.
My CPU usage seemed normal. It was stable at around 245 and would jump up to 998 from time to time that doesn't last for more than half a second though.
My battery seems to be in good condition as it's labeled as "healthy" by my battery apps and the voltage seemed normal....

Do a nandroid back-up of CM6, and then try out the above ROM. You can always go right back to CM at any time.
For calibration, complete discharge is necessary. Doing it once is not too harmful. As long as the battery is reported "healthy" - you're ok.
There are apps that will show you the approximate capacity of your battery in numbers. Try to find one like that.
Please check discharge current and voltage over time. It doesn't make sense that a phone on 245 MHz in sleep mode will draw the current required to discharge 10%/hour.
in same boat as OP
im in the same position as the OP
student.
dont use phone for nearly 7 hrs a day
backlight on lowest, gps and bluetooth off.
ive been looking around for answers (hence why im reading this)
when class gets out ive gone from 100% to nearly 65%
running cm6 and ive wiped battery,
about to switch ROM, maybe that'll help.

Awesome, if you find a fix let me know please.
I haven't been able to do any of the suggestions yet but (when it comes to flashing) but I do have an update that might shine more light on this issue.
Today in class I noticed that my N1 was warm when it was in my pocket but nothing was running and gps and bluetooth was off. I checked the temp of my battery it was at 36.1C while it's usually at 30-31C when I'm not doing anything.
Also, I checked spare parts this morning and found that, while I was asleep, my N1 was not asleep for half that time but my screen on for only 4% of that time (probably from my messing with it before and a little bit after sleep).
I've checked to see if anything is running in the background that might lead to this but so far none of my apps should drain my battery that much while I was asleep.
Is this normal? Shouldn't my phone be mostly in sleep mode when I'm asleep since I'm not doing anything to it? As for the battery heating up, do y'all think it's a faulty battery or the fault of the OS?
Thanks again for all of y'all's helpful replies!

About battery heating...
I checked and mine is at 75-78F while in class. My n1 is also in a case, so for it to be that low is good. Just thought to throw that in as a comparison.
Also i've switched ROMs to help with battery, no luck there. Still experience 7-8% drop per hour.
I've been keeping my phone off now at school, which has helped, though I still lose nearly 15% while it's off.

Power off at battery 15%

I noticed, a few others, but should be minority has the same problem as mine.
My N1 powers off itself when my battery shows around 15% or so.. sometimes 17% sometimes 14%, never lower than 10%.
I already tried to wipe battery data at recovery or deleting the battstat.bin file etc etc but it is still like that.
Is there a solution for this and any reason for this?
Majority of people's phone only power downs below 5%.
Many thanks

actually this i have tried a few times already but it never helped.
My phone turns off at around 19% now after I played with the battery calibrator app. (I set the life at 100%, was lazy to run the full cycle calibration)
Its powerful and probably can fix your problem.

He said he was too lazy to complete the learn cycle, which is part of the calibration technique. There is no sense in trying to pick "pieces" of the process and hope they work, they won't. Start with step 1 and follow the directions to the letter, don't skip anything. I would suggest reading the instructions a couple of times prior to starting and ask questions in the thread if you aren't sure. There are several of us that monitor the thread and will respond quickly...myself during US daylight hours and Temasek in the evening (he's in asia, I think).

Thanks. Wish there was a quicker/easier way.
I'm currently testing a direct way using simple math:
If 1452mAh is 100% how much is 19% ?
i.e. 1452/100*19 = 275mAh (for me)
I've set "full40" to 1452-275= 1177 (the calibrator app's minimum is 1200 so I just set it to that.)

That may work as a guess-timate, but the stock battery comes rated at 1452mAh and stock age is set to 94%, so you would really be setting to 1128mAh unless you reset age to 100%. It really doesn't take that long to set up the application for learn mode...just a few minutes. It does take 31/2-4 hrs to fully charge the phone and complete learn mode if you set the min. charge current to <20mA. To speed things up, just set it to <40mA as you won't miss the little bit of extra juice.

hmmm good point, i never thought of that lower limit. we'll see if we can update the app.
but to answer this thread's question, the age register in your phone is now out of whack, and you need to set it accordinly to allow the battery to go down to 0%. the learn cycle determine's the proper "age" value and sets it accordingly.
you could also guess an age value, say 83%, would be close. but really there's no reason to not do the learn cycle and figure it out.
BTW all these values are stored in your battery's chip, and it needs to be updated to new value.
Quick question:
1) Sometimes even after I turned on the "Detect Learn Mode" my Current occassionally dropped below -200mA (e.g. 160mA) for a quick while... will it affect the result?
2) "Turn off" means turning off the Detect Learn Mode right?
3) where can I see the "Charging current"? Capa.?
Thanks
What if I rotate among three different batteries on a regular basis? I have an external battery charger too. Will the calibration be in any way useful or will it get confused by the changes?
I have my original January 2010 battery, a December 2011 replacement from HTC, and a MOMAX battery that also holds up a pretty good charge.

you can rotate batteries no problem. when you do a learn cycle, the age value gets written to the chip inside the individual battery. so you can swap batteries no problem. just make sure that the correct age value shows up when you swap, cause sometimes the age resets when removed from the phone. just set it manually back to your proper age if so.
we were trying to add "profiles" support to the app so you could swap batterys and it remembers the parameters for each and sets them accordingly when you swap the battery. but i dont know how long that will take...
Okay good to know. I bought this charger:
http://www.amazon.com/PowerGen-Mult...CAT6/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1295658169&sr=8-3
And it's pretty neat because I can just position the pins myself to charge any battery I want. I've tried it with camera batteries, Huawei U1250, Moto Milestone and RAZR, and Nexus One batteries. It works really well and it's somewhat future-proof because it will probably work with my next phone's batteries too =)

[Q] battery issues - 3 charges most days

Hi everyone,
I brought this wonderful phone (or atleast i thought wonderful) couple of weeks ago ( delivered on release date)
Now i expected the battery to be good as its 2300 mah but it the phone doesnt seem to last no way near as long as other claim i had an s3 before this htc one, 9 times outta 10 i only had to charge it once a day and never activated power saver mode,
On the htc one i constantly have power saver turn on and it just doesnt seem to be doing anything , i havnt changed my usage of my phone, if anything ive used it less,
For example the s3 lasted my full 8 hour shift with nothing running expcept the tunein radio app, the htc one only seems to last 4-5 hours with everything closed except the tune in radio app. Ive not changed networks so low signal shouldnt be causing the drain as there isnt a difference in signal levels,
So is there anything else i can do to stop bettery draining. Bluetooth, wifi, nfc, etc all turned off, screen on auto brightness ,
Sent from my htc one with just 26% battery left and i havnt even rrached 4 hours of my shift yet, left house at 9:45 with 100%
You probably have an app preventing the phone from sleeping. There are loads of tutorials on how to check for partial wake locks to fix this.

Try this or this to detect the wakelocks. For more info on wakelock, read this thread
Definitely sounds like you have an app which is preventing the phone from sleeping and you should be getting a pretty easy 1 day out the battery at the very least in moderate use.

How have you TuneIn setup.
As general when you press pause rather than stop, itt continues to record that station and is always active. Iif you go into the app settings and turn off 'autostop recording' which should be defaulted to 8 hours - turn this to never and try again to see if it improves. I've seen TuneIn eat battery life on other devices where ths happens (people thinkits stopped when its just paused and recording away in the background...
That's possible ^^^^, however if he was just to hit exit on the app it should stop the services. That and really want to be sure, swype it away in the multitasking section.
Can try Betterbatterystats in the play store as a lot of people rave about that.
Also make sure Google Now is disabled. It sucks battery life like no other. Awesome tool, however to much drain on the battery.

Would be great if you posted a picture of the battery use. You must have a wake lock.

Guaranteed that you have horrible wakelock issues. Rogue apps, bad settings, and anything in between could be the cause.
I can go to bed with the phone fully charged and, 8 hours later, wake it up to see it's still at 100% (mobile data, GPS, WiFi left active.)
Once I'm bored of constantly picking it up and playing with it (i.e. get back to standard usage patterns) I get the feeling it will likely run to 3 or more days between charges. Won't be this month though

The Same happens with my phone.
The battery is really good. It feels like it is the battery time of my Onex x3

Well there are various reasons for this..Maybe an app that drains much battery not leaving cpu to sleep.You can download better battery stats and see the wakelocks and the cpu states that your cpu runs on.. You may also need a battery calibration.It will not increase the battery capacity of course but it will eliminate the faulty battery stats bin that tells the system the battery percentage.You may have for example 25% battery left and your device may show 2% or even close.
I assume that you do not have wifi always on, screen on for hours or using mobile data..The consumption of battery is huge.

how ? when u first got the phone ? did you turn it on or did you charge it?
Worth dialling *#*#3424#*#* and doing the battery test, although as everyone else has said it's more than likely an app.
I had a sgs2 over 2 years,rooted and optimized in battery usage, i was already happy. Now with the htc one it's a completely new experience....already now after a few days,with root but still no tweaks i get 60% left at 11pm!before the sgs2 was empty...can't wait
For fiture developement!!

Download Better Battery Stats, leave it for a day and then upload a screenshot of your wakelocks. My battery is easily lasting the day (ended at 11pm at 76% yesterday)
Same-ish problem.
Hey i'm having a similar problem,
I bought the HTC One (silver, 32Gb) A couple of days ago and the battery isn't even lasting a day with what I'd say as Medium/light usage. I do leave Mobile data on so i can get Skype/Facebook/line calls ect instantly, but i assumed that's normal.
I just left my phone alone for an hour with the screen off and it lost 4%, could this be a battery defect?
Are you telling me to get over a days usage, i have to leave mobile data turned off and only turn it on when i want to use Skype ect?
I saw a post above that one guys gets 3 days of usage with Mobile date, Wifi, etc all turned on. Is this the norm, or does he have a super hero battery?
I see the general consensus is to download "Better Battery Stats" and send pics of wakelocks, but Is there comparable app for free that will do the trick, as i don't have money currently on my English account.
Thanks to all those taking time out of their own lives to help others.

[Q] Mobile Network Signal (Cell Standby) DRAIN

Hello guys I'm a newbie here so please do explain to me some of the stuff if you need to
so recently (about 2 weeks ago) I used this guide to root my Incredible S and did everything except the Blackrose part
and since then
I've noticed that my phone has drained its battery a lot quicker than usual
I lost 11% of battery when I woke up, fully charging it the night before
I usually do not use it much, only a call every 2 days or so, and I do not have internet connection
so I cannot understand how I have to charge it every day now, when it used to last 4 days (on Sense)
here's a pic from betterybatterystats
thanks everyone
------- 4/10 edit
ok
back to stock rom
it has the SAME problem
"No data connection" and "No or Unknown Signal" on Betterbatterystats
with steep drops in battery whenever there is "Mobile network signal"
and next to no drop whatsoever when there isn't
PLEASE HELP ><
new attachments down there with stock rom
tell me if you need a translation
THANKS

Battery drain has already been discussed much in the CM10.1 thread. Its been discussed in practically every AOSP thread really.

I know and I've tried to look around for answers for quite a few days
but for most people
it's either the same as Sense or something else (too many apps, not charging fully...)
and for those with similar conditions
I can't find solutions for
and the problem got worse today
in the 7 hours I slept yesterday
the battery drained from more than 50% to nothing
so the alarm didn't ring because it shut itself off

The standard charging time isnt what it says on the box or anything. It should be roughly 6 hours from 0% to 100% and thats providing you plug it into an AC outlet. I would suggest trying an app called Greenify. It hibernates certain apps/ services that may not be in use thus saving battery. I would also regularly check the Running Apps in settings and clear out anything unecessary.

nonono
I don't have a charging problem
it's a drainage problem
and about Greenify
I already installed that when I looked over the battery saving guide (which didn't help)
I literally have 5 apps in the Running Apps section
the part I don't get is
why does Cyanogenmod 10.1 use battery so much quicker than Sense
when I have 1/4 the apps I originally did?
it's the "No Data Connection" and "No or Unknown Signal" part really bothers me.
oh and thanks for the time btw

Hmm then this battery drainage is strange. Try making a full backup in recovery. Then clean flash the ROM again. If the problem still persists, then I have absolutely no idea whats wrong lol

Actually
I tried that...
on Sunday afternoon I reflashed it
my exact steps:
1. ClockworkMod backup
2. Install from zip
3. Advanced restore - data (I restored the whole thing too once before that, but thought that just restoring the data might actually change something)
and that's when it went from 50% to 0 overnight
not looking too good -.-

Well then sit tight. Szezso is gonna release a CM10.1 for us as soon as he gets his new USB port.
oh well then
thanks for the help anyways
I'll just keep waiting
might want to go back to Sense though...
and more pics from BetterBatteryStats
just in case anyone knows what they mean
Drained 56% of my battery while I was asleep yesterday (for about 7 hours)
only 6% in the time I was at school, because of Airplane mode (I even listened to music and played a little Doodle Jump)
but I obviously want a phone to CALL PEOPLE
so I'm reverting to stock Rom
OK
so that didn't work out
I edited the main article
hope someone can help!!
meanwhile I'll look for more articles online since I know it's not (really) CM's problem anymore
thanks
Ensure to charge your mobile fully and after a NORMAL usage (calls, WiFi, Mobile Data on).
Just share the dump file from betterbatterystats. It would help to analyse better.
Edit:
Could notice you are using some widgets in the home screen. Usually widgets with high refresh rate drains your battery.
2. Facebook app is causing the partial wakelock. Even when the screen is off, the app is using your CPU. Try to disable autosync if it's enabled
3. Audio_out3 wakelock is due to phone vibrator is enabled. May be during call or keyboard haptic feature.
Power manager service wakelock is common and its in good level.
Try to check your CPU freq n governor.
And adjust accordingly. One more, Li-on battery should not be charged fully. Just charge till 85-90%. The battery will drain little lower compared to fully charged device. And you need to charge your device only when battery is low. Frequent charging n discharging will affect the battery life. Consistent Charge and discharge cycle is encouraged.
Try to share your fresh dump here or in batter battery status thread. There are many folks to help you with.

Thanks for the detailed reply sir
My widgets (aka weather & tasks) only refresh manually, and nothing is on Autosync (in the auto sync menu, anyways)
originally had only vibration for calls, turned that off too now
and what is "CPU freq n governor"?
didn't know that about the batteries
I'll do that next time
and I just reinstalled betterbatterystats, so I'll post the Dump File after a few hours
Thanks again!!

I mean CPU frequency steps and CPU governor. It's a kernel thing. Just search xda, you will lot of info regarding that.
Sure, post your dump with normal usage.
It's easy to click thanks rather than expressing in words

***4/12 8:20PM edit
finished rooting, reinstalled stuff
I installed No-frills CPU Control instead

[Q] Is my battery broken?

Hey I have just bought HTC One 2 days ago. Compared to my old Sensation XE battery life completly sucks. I usually use phone without battery saver, on auto brightness and with Wi-Fi/3g turned on only on demand. Today 8 hours after unplugging phone from the charger I only have 26%. Screen was turned on for 2 hours and 45 minutes only and Wi-Fi worked for 3 hours and 46 mins. I might also say that I did not charge my One before usage to 100% as HTC advised. Was that very crucial? Do you think that phone might be broken or I should just give him time to settle baterry better.
That's sounds like what I get. I turn off mobile data when using WiFi and vice versa. I always use power saver unless I'm 3D gaming. Which is only on the weekends.
I've had mine for 3 months now.
I've seen people get 7:00 screen time on stock unrooted.
I think my battery's broken too. I can barely reach 3 hours of screen time. With 2 hours I get like 11 maybe 12 hours of on time. Something's wrong with our phones...
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Does anyone see a problem with my battery I have been on wifi the whole time with brightness at 20%.I never had this bad of a drain before and all I did was look at facebook for maybe 5 minutes.I also closed the app after I was done using it.

Your battery stats seem on par with me and the OP. Seems that only a select few phones get decent battery life.
My kernel (android os) has been in the 25-35% range,it has never been that high before.
battery life lousy
I get pretty horrible drain too. I charged it to nearly full around 7:30 last night. I took about 2 minutes of video, sent one text, and checked my email 3 times. After that I went to sleep and the phone sat idle. At 6:30 this morning, I'm down to 9%.

Wow, that's real bad.. When my phone is off during night maybe 7% is gone. Then again I'm rooted and use greenify aswell as battery doctor if that has any affect.
On screen time seems like my battery drains pretty fast too though. After 2 hours of music and surfing and watching videos I guess atleast 40% would be gone.
My battery life became horrible, too. My phones loses 4% per unused hour. No App seems to be responsible for that drain. Flightmode or powersaving mode ain't making a difference. I hope we'll find a solution for our drain.

@Racingmatt your power management services is on for quite a bit. do you have alarms.? i would bet that you either that maps location enabled or something of the sort. cause you also have NLPcollector on for around 40 minutes which is a bit much. also i would turn off GPS if your not actively using it.
@Rachorid how are you setting up your wifi? is it set to always be on? or set to turn off when screen off? you have alot of wifi wake. might be due to that. i know when i'm at home my wifi actively pings all devices connected which will force wake up my phone. yea its a bit annoying but i live with it. otherwise i just keep my phone plugged in.
if you both can get some SS of alarms i can give you a better idea. and when you SS the alarms make sure to click on the ones with the most wake lock so i can see the secondary screen that shows what the actual wakelock command is happening.

Here are the latest stats. As you can see many Google wakes.. removing Maps/Now/GMail/turning of Location (a few days ago) had no impact on my drain. The 2nd app on Partial Wakelocks was used actively.
I also disabled Wifi for about 2 hours.. no impact, too. Flightmode also had no impact (a few days ago).

The reason I didnt give you a alarm ss is because I didn't have any alarms when I went to the alarms section. I also had all locations services including GPS enabled but I just now disabled GPS but left network location enabled I'll give you a screenshot later so you can see the differences
I know exactly how you feel that's what happened to me,u was expecting so much from the battery and it turned out to be the worst..give ya some advice...3g drains the **** out of the battery ,so always jeep it off and turn it on only when you wanna use it...that way the battery will be acceptable... Also flashing a custom Rom would help...o recommend arhd

I had awesome battery life a month ago with Wifi always on, auto. brightness and every app on hourly sync. (I have my phone since 7th of march) Sometimes I didn't lost a percent over night (8 hours) and I just don't know what it could be because I didn't install another app and no app seems to be responsible for that stanby drain. My on-screen battery life is still good. It also doesn't matter which ROM or kernel I'm using.
Here is my latest stats after 12 hours with 5 minutes of GPS use (turned off when not using)and network location on all the time with 3g/4g on all the time(turns off after a period of inactivity) . I can't give you a alarm stat because I'm not rooted.
Lithium-Ion batteries used in today's smartphones need atleast 10 cycles to show optimum power
so hold on until 2 weeks then you will get the full performance
i get 2 days of battery on my HTC One (since i dont have internet on my Simcard)
its 2G connection and auto Brightness and switched bloatwares off
i use Android Revolution HD 12.2

with normal use 3.6%/h is pretty reasonable. how much screen on time was that including?
