Phone: HTC One
Carrier: AT&T
Never rooted/unlocked.
After update to sense 6.0,
1. Phone auto reboots every 6 hrs once (while on battery or on charger).
2. Battery drains in 4 to 5 hrs and phone becomes very hot.
3. SYNC is continuously ON most of the day, around 1.5gb of mobile data is consumed per day (Google Play Store, com.htc.sense.uid.socialplugins.shared:10018 & removed apps use max data).
4. When the SYNC is ON, device will be very slow ( about 30 seconds to 1 minute later the notification disappears after reading the mail/message/missed call).
5. Apps requiring update from play store, keeps getting re-installed several times when the SYNC is ON.
6. When the SYNC is ON, text messages will not get delivered, they just keep waiting for 2 to 3 minutes.
7. When the SYNC is ON, the Alarm doesn't work.
8. Some times power button will not respond or too slow to wakeup the screen, sometimes device reboots if I press the power button multiple times.
Factory reset for 3 times.
If I leave at default apps, device is OK. But once I reinstall all my apps from play store and setup (individual app manually, with out restoring from backup) the problems reappear.
Please HELP..
Regards,
Kranthi.

Hey guys,
About a week ago I started rapidly losing battery life.
I've done a bunch of research and installed task killers, OS monitors, Spare Parts, etc. I've uninstalled apps that had wake_lock and done a Reset to Factory Defaults,changed the brightness, as well as performed a recalibration for the battery (one cycle). I also turned the phone to Airplane mode since I moved offices and thought maybe that was a problem.
I am not sure why this is the problem, but I have notices through spare parts that my phone does not go to sleep. The time it gives for Time without Sleeping (under "other Usage->Last Unplugged) is typically about the same time as I have had it off the charger. The phone will not last a full day anymore (Actually I'm lucky if it's still on when I get home from work). The only program that I can think of is the new maps application.
Here are my questions:
1) Is there a good way to find out if there is a specific program that is not allowing sleep (w/o uninstalling everything and adding them back one by one)?
2) How do I fix this problem? Would a hard reset work?
3) Generaloes anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? Why wont my phone go to sleep?
4) Could this have anything to do with the new maps/navigation update that Google sent out OTA last week?
Right now it has not slept for over 5 hours, but I been pressing the power button (not turning it off) when I put it down.
I ca provide a list of programs if that helps, probably some statistics too
Thanks!
In Spare Parts under Battery usage, there is a "Partial wake usage" option. Did you check that to see what is keeping it awake?
Since Last Unplugged:
Android System: 6m 16s (blue bar)
Dialer: 1m 40s (blue bar)
Facebook: 56s
Google: 44s
Media 28s
Google Voice: 20s
Calendar: 20s
Messaging 4s
None of that seems to make sense when you look at:
Other Usage: Time Spent Without Sleeping: 6h 36m 1s..
Maybe I am mis-reading it?
Thanks!
hello. i'm faced with a problem: i have my i9000 for about 1 year; never rooted it; only update my operating system 2 times via samsung kies when i got the message that a new firmware was available while connecting my phone to my pc (now i have PDA:JS4 / PHONE:JPY / CSC:JS1 (ORO)); and for some time now the phone discharges very fast; lasts about 8 hours; i use it at a medium pace: making phone calls, writing sms and replying on messenger if someone gives me an instant message and every now and then i listen to some music when i'm going somewhere, besides that i don't use it much; and i don't have programs running in the background except for the accounts sync system for yahoo mail, gmail and yahoo messenger. so i decided to recalibrate my battery to see if it lasts longer. i got android terminal emulator from the market but the problem is i don't have access to delete the batterystats.bin since the phone is not rooted. so here are a few questions:
1. should i root my phone just so i can delete this file ?
2. which of the 2 methods works best for battery recalibration ? the one where you charge your phone till 100% while it's on then switch off and charge some more ? or the one where you let the phone die and the charge completely while it's off ? (i ask this because browsing the forums i see everyone saying a different thing about this topic)
3. if i decide to root my phone to be able to delete the above mentioned file, should i install one of those user made operating systems (i think they are called ROMs) that has a lower battery consumption rate ? (i don't know how to do it but i think i can manage following the tutorials on this forums). i saw in a poll that darkys operating system has the lower battery consumption. is that correct ?
thanks for reading this long threat and taking your time to reply to it!
1.) I would do so. With root access you do much more cool things.
2.) In Darky's forum (darkyrom.com) you can find a good manual for calibrating.
3.) Custom-ROMs have some features stick-ROMs don't have. At the moment you have a branded phone (branded by Orange?). Some ROMs need quite less battery (Juwe's for example).

- Charge your battery full, bump charge to get the highest level possible ; note that it's not a big deal if it shows 97% when you unplug after bump-charging
- Drain your battery to 0% until it shuts down by itself (without plugging the charger or connecting the phone to a pc)
- Wait 2 minutes and reboot the phone to ensure the battery is completely flat (it might reboot fully, half way, not at all, don't worry) until it dies again
- Remove the battery and wait 2 minutes
- Replace the battery and plug the charger without switching the phone on until it shows 100%
- When phone shows 100%, boot in recovery (volume up + home + power) and go to > Advanced > Wipe Battery Stats > Confirm (move up/down using the volume keys)
- Reboot the phone and unplug the charger when the "battery full notification" comes (wait for the notification before you unplug the charger)
- Now use your phone until the battery is flat again and charge full (no need to have it turned off, unless you it to charge faster). Repeat 2 or 3 times and your battery will be calibrated
- Only wipe battery stats once, run a few cycles of full charge / discharge and after that just use your phone as normal (i.e. no need to deplete / charge fully anymore).
Lately I battery is lasting far the charge all night, switch it off at 9 am, and after 3 hours and the battery was at 75% without using it, I have only synchronize Gmail. It currently (3:48 PM) and the battery is at 30% and have only used it slightly (10 minutes Internet surfing, text messaging)
Another thing I noticed is that the heated screen on top (where the CPU), just 10 minutes surfing the internet and the screen gets too hot, the battery reaches temperatures of 40 ° C - 42 ° C and even in the part where the battery is cold compared to the screen. Is this normal?
Another bug I've noticed is that sometimes the phone gets quite slow and starts to vibrate for 10 seconds and then returns to normal.
It perjuducial the phone to reach high temperatures? Sometimes I get to watch TV series online with Flashplayer and battery runs out fast and I have to leave it connected to the charger, but too hot to disconnect and return to lower temperature. Yesterday at least as I could not sleep with the phone from 11:00 a.m. until 8:00 a.m. and I wonder if the intensive use of mobile phone could end up damaging the phone by high temperatures.
Anything but I could not solve is the automatic locking of the screen is running where it should not, for example: I am on Google Maps and the screen turns off, I also happens in games and when I watch some videos with Flash, in the camera also turns off the screen, I searched through all settings and I could not find a solution.
Another bug that is annoying me is with the WiFi, that when the screen is blocking WiFi stops working I have it set to never stop WiFi but blocked the screen stops working WiFi, Wifi never turned off, but the problem is that it stops sending and receiving data, it is quite annoying because sometimes I need to download files larger than 100mb and I have to configure it not to lock the screen and the battery runs out faster.

Use android market app OS Monitor to see what's going on in the background. Something is using your processor. OS Monitor should assist you in locating that process.
The only processes that are in the background is facebook (must be push notifications) Gmail, The Go Weather Widget, Google Maps (always stays in the background) and WhatsApp. The rest are system processes, if I'm going to stop using the phone close all unused applications, like Internet Explorer and other applications that need not be in the background. The phone just warms me when I use it for several minutes. The WiFi I have not been solved, as long I have to leave the screen on so you do not pause the download and the phone sometimes it gets slow for 10 seconds and return to normal
I m really sick of this update
I have this issue of severe battery drain by two main culprits at Number one it's MEDIA
and number two is ANDROID SYSTEM. I have already cleared cache using recovery and cleared data in settings. Have checked most of my pics and videos. My battery won't last more then 4 hrs. I have disabled most of the bloat apps and quite a bit of Samsung apps. Sync is @ manual
Android system cpu usage after a whole day typically is around 6 hrs
Media cpu usage usually is around 5.30hrs
Searched through the net and found no real fix for the battery drain
P.S - I DID THE FACTORY DATA RESET 1 2 TIMES.
Please help
Update : When ever I manually kill media app and disable it for a while and then re enable it.. Everything works fine for some time.
Battery drain is somewhat gone.. As I have deleted most of the .MP3 files but I m still facing the issue of random restarts and freezing. I have used many softwares to know the reason for random restarts and freeze but no success.
Any suggestions??
Update : Media is somewhat tamed but I have developed weird issue of random 5 - 10 sec freeze. Whatever taps I make during the time the fone is frozen it remains unresponsive but after a few seconds it responds to all the tap commands but after 10 seconds.
Some times I have to put phone in standby mode to sort the problem .
But after that initial problem it is perfectly normal and responsive.
How do I fix this issue
Ps- I have cleared cache several times.
If I don't restart my phone after charging overnight, Google Play Services eats more battery than anything else on the phone.
If I reboot it seems to stop as is slowly slips down the list, but with out a reboot it remains the heaviest user and my battery drains significantly quicker.
Is there any reason for this? I have turned off background data for the app, don't have location services or anything like that switched on... It seems like some process starts while the phone is charging that fails to stop when unplugged.
Hello.
Google service include "push" gmail/ contact synchronisation and over things. So that depend on what you use on your phone.
Google Backup quite often starts while the phone is plugged in.
Other services can call GPS to start, sometimes apps request location info that causes location services to fire up. I seem to have an ongoing issue with Google contacts, constantly starting, even though I don't have my Google account sync enabled and the address book is based on a CSV. file import.
Unlock developer options (settings\system\about phone\ press build number 8 times) and look in running services, see if there are some other apps running that may start it.
GPS battery drain has haunted every model and make of phone I've ever had.
How else are Google going to transfer your every button click, movement, location and (if some people are to be believed) voice recording back to their HQ?
