[strange] battery drain if phone is put beside my bed

just want to share my strange experience here. i had a battery drain issue (about 60 mA) almost everytime I slept. it turned out it only happened when I put my phone beside my bed! you know the gap between the bedding and the wood? that's where I placed my phone. just last night I tried to prove this theory once again by putting my phone there. and just as expected, currentwidget shows 60 mA of battery drain. then I moved my phone to my desk and some minutes later the drain is stable (8 mA). what's probably the cause of this, you think?

Most likley you are masturbating too much and causing too much friction near you bed which is causing a drain in energy from your battery as it will be in your energy field.
You can stop this drain by...
a) wrapping your head in tinfoil
b) wanking less.

Thats obviously just a coincident.
But, here's my theory:
When I have my phone near when trying to sleep, I play some games, browser internet etc (when it's not near, I just sleep), so you might have a lot of apps running, some of the apps are stupid and would cause high battery usage event when you turn phone screen off.
My solution was using autokiller on screen off, so when I turn if off now it would kill all those apps giving me stable long battery usage no matter where you put your phone.

No offense, but I'm pretty sure it's not a coincident, because since I put my phone on the desk the drain doesn't happen anymore. And I've been doing this for some weeks. But last night, out of curiosity I put the phone in the bedside gap again and voila, 60 mA. Maybe there's magnet inside my bed or something?

Yeah I suggest buying a new bed, if that doesn't work redo the painting on your walls. Stuff is all electronic and magnetic nowadays. I had your problem too, and that fixed it.

my phone has a high battery drain everytime my girlfriend touches it or its next to her Desire

Nice theories here
My guess is that the signal is not as good when placed beside your bed, so the phone uses more battery in order to get a strong enough signal.

yep.. baaaad mojo.. or karma.. or whatever you want to call it.. the thing is this.. this bad s*it sucks all the energy from the phone!!! or maybe your phone just doesn't like you.. I don't know any solutions about bad karma and stuff, but I have a solution to your problem.. just keep the phone on the desk..! or get a night/bed/sleep desk.. or chair.. or something to keep the phone up high, and not on the floor.. I mean you don't have to be a rocket scientist to figure that one out.. and I know that it is a general discussion forum... but seriously..? misterious battery life drain..? really..? change the kernel.. it may also help.. good luck.. and next time.. please.. when you think to post something like this.. DON'T

Try putting it somewhere between other wood furniture and check how's the battery drain.

I usually get around 60mA when the phone is syncing something,the poor signal might be the key.

Check your mattress and blankets for bedbugs. They are known to love Android, and are probably using your phone while you sleep. If you keep it in WinMo while you sleep, they won't bother with it, as even bedbugs have the sense to stay away from anything Micro$haft

Magldr dangerous?

Can I let my battery drain all the way or will it brick my phone? U red some stuff about it and it freaks me out. I don't want to loose aan 600 eur phone.

** MOD EDIT **
For clarity, if you have problems booting/charging after battery goes flat, do the below and all will be well:
Leave your phone off
plug it in to charge for approx 30 minutes
unplug it and pop out the battery (so it will boot)
replace the battery
boot up the phone
plug it in while it is booting up.

What did you read??

no it wont, no danger at all.
i have no idea where all the rumours are coming from regarding the fear of MAGLDR and brickage, in fact it is far easier to completely brick your phones in a Windows Mobile envoronment than android through MAGLDR.
although in reality it is very very diffucilt to brick a HD2, once i lost all laptop power during a HSPL flash and it was still fine....
Draining battery / Running NANDroid / Flashing through MAGLDR will never brick a phone. EVER. PERIOD.
the only way people have ever bricked a HD2 is when they have a TMOUS handset (american model only) and flash a 51 radio. And even then it can still be revived through JTAG

It wont brick your phone but you may have to pull the battery to charge it. Some users are claiming that it wont charge and the battery has to be pulled. As long as you have HSPL installed your pretty much bullet proof (dont try it though )
Ricey

but the phone doesnt charge while it is turned off!!

Android is dangerous on the hd2. It won't brick, but it will ruin your touchscreen, not many will tell you though

i think it's because people running their phone with android let it gets way way way too hot and it damage the screen but it can also happen to window also
download tempmonitor and keep it under 102F and you should be good
btw i'm positive a person using android would be on their phone more then a person on window 6.5

oh yeah lmao btw i'm saying from personal experience
before i had android on my device i was using window OS, and screen died on me i think it was because i was watching movies on my phone but ehhhh HTC replace it for me for free (^_~)

Why on earth will it "ruin" your touchscreen? I have been using Android on my HD2 since day 1 and also on my HD1 since day 1 and my touchscreen is fine. If this was an issue there would be endless amount of threads about it.
You've simply had a defective device and blaimed it on you using Android when infact its purely your ignorance.
Hey the other week my laptop battery gave up, I was using msn at the time maybe that was the cause??
Jeez what rom are you using? My HD2 never gets hot!
I admit that my HD1 used to get hot in very early stages of android releases as power management was a real issue but those days are long gone as far as im concerned.

I red when fully discharged the battery will never charge again. Because magldr doesn't support charging. And some ppl posted that it doesnt boot further then the magldr.

Beware magldr:
It's true. If you let the battery die completely, it won't charge anymore. It happened to me. Now I'm waiting for my ebay-bought wall charger for my battery. I just hope that when i manage to charge it, my hd2 still funtions. Cuz letting the battery die while on nand android may cause your nand to get corrupted. Then, you can't even access the bootloader.

Well if that was the case and you was faced with no power then you would simply use a battery charging dock.
So worst case you would be buying a cheap charger.
Oh and to set your mind a rest, it must be bs as ive just turned my phone off and plugged charger in and its charging. Only weird thing is that when I unplug the lead led is still red and I have to remove battery and put it back in to power on phone.

? Never mind. That is not helping in any way..
slayerns said:
i was too afraid to discharge it fully cuz we don't have lamps in our house and i only use my phones backlight and flashlight for studying. But I told my friend with hd2 to discharge it fully and the next day he called me with his "house" phone sayign "wtf did you do!". So yes it is dangareous!!!....

My charge is battery is dying off, i need to charge immediately.

Bricked HD2 TMOUS

Hi, this is my sad history, a friend of mine give me a bricked tmous, he didn't told me how he bricked it. The TMOUS didn't start it was dead, no led when charging, all dead.
So, I put the tmous in a plastic bag and put it in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes and it was working again, I try to install custom roms, HLSP, MAGLDR, android although the installation was successful the phone got stuck in the stick together or the htc initial screen. I noticed that after some time the tmous stopped working, so I put it in the refrigerator for 15 minutes and it was working again. However, when I tried to flash a stock rom from the SD card I got the radio fail error so, I suppose that the brick was caused by a bad radio flash, so I tried another rom specifically RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.10.531.0_Radio_Signed_15.34.50.07U_2.08.50.08_2_Ship . When I did that I had no radio fail. And installed HLSP, MAGLDR, android and it worked!!! But…. After some use the phone freezes. The phone only work when I put it in the refrigerator for some time, the funny thing is that when I check the radio version in android the version is ok X.XX.50.XX, I have reception and the wifi works right. Other funny thing I found is that Android starts a little bit faster; I know that because I have another TMous with the same android version. I don’t know why the tmous overhead and crash maybe the bad flash overclocked the processor, but is only a guess.
I hope this history can help somebody or give a clue about how to unbrick these devices.
PS. I run Task29 several times in the phone it didn’t affect at all.

what's the logic for leaving it in the fridge for 20min? Wouldn't you get moisture build up inside the hardware??
I wouldn't want any kind of liquid to come near sensitive components in there.

That's why I used a plastic bag.

Does it get hot?
Maybe its overheating(some android roms come with an overclocked kernel) or your cpu is damaged.
Try no frills cpu control to underclock it!

You could just stick your head in the refrigerator when you need to make a call. J/K

LOL maybe I'll try

sounds like a bad battery.
When the battery gets some moisture it can act funny afterward and overheat or cause stability issues.
Try ordering/using a different battery and see how it does.

I think it's overheating of cpu. I don't know exactly, but i suppose it should be some kind of cooler which for some reasons do not fully cover the cpu...

Yeah I thought that too. Is possible that a bad flash damaged the processor??? If that is the case, is there a way to fix it?? I don’t know, adding something to avoid the processor overheat or something.

Well let me start by stating the obvious question that I have to ask lol whats with sticking it in the fridge? I never heard anyone do that lol now all the joke aside. Your assumption of overheating due to failed proc could be correct. Why don't you ask your friend what he did and the max scale frequency he used to OC it and for how long?
I mean if you OC you are in danger of frying the SoC due to heat as you might know from middle school when things are hot they expend and when its cool they contract. So this consent extend/contract cycle has impact and can fry or crack the circuit in long run thus limiting the life expectancy. As depending on the OC scale frequency and duration the ProcIE will slowly break down the chip cause vibration on int as byproduct is heat. As you may know that not all chips are created equal as it depends on the defect rate of the wafer.
Best you can do is sell it on craigslist or ebay "AS IS". ATM replacing the SoC and the whole hassle would be more than the actual street price of the device which you can get mint condition.

The idea for the freezer came from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10574177&postcount=179, I don’t know if my friend overclocked the phone, he told me that he tried to change de the rom, at first I supposed that he flashed a bad radio because the Radio Fail error. The purpose of my post is to give hope to other users, I read several post about tmous that didn’t start and where dead, like this one and everyone told them that there was no hope, but I was able to revive it just putting it in the fridge, I know it sound stupid but I thought that if somebody with knowledge in electronics could tell us put this here and it can help with the overhead, I know that nowadays all comes small and packed and when it broke, you have to replace the whole unit, but it was only to help other people who has the same problem, I know that a broken processor means a dead unit, but I was only looking for a shoot of luck, nothing more.

while your phone is working, use setcpu to underclock the phone and see if it's still freeze and crash..

Far as the device goes if it has physical defect there is nothing you can do other than replace it. I mean if it was completely bricked this you wouldn't even be able to access it only way to do it is dump it via jTAG. As it powers on and you are able to access it I am guessing it could be hardware problem which could have started from OC or simply inferior device got though HTC-HQ. As I said if its SoC then replacing it will be more than its worth and not worth salvaging as you can get another one.

Why atrix is so hot when using it

I used defy before, i worked very well, now I tried atrix, i found the phone is very hot in hand even just browse the internet.
I open the battery door, it seems the hot is not from battery, it is from the low part of the phone, is this normal? It feels uncomfortable to hold such a hot device.

Dual core processor gets hot when under load. It's normal that the Atrix runs hot when under load. Think of it this way.........you'll love it in the winter when you will play pocket data all the time to feel the warmth!
If the temperature worries you, install an app to monitor it.

All those mega hertz generate heat.. You are feeling the after effects of power flowing through the processor.. This aint some silly little flip phone son.

Mine stays relatively cool until I play Angry Birds or go for a drive using satnav and streaming internet radio. Then it gets a tad warm!
"This aint some silly little flip phone son" - I lolled hard.

Lol because it's the hottest phone on market

The hottest my phone ever gets is about 62 degrees on the CPU. As long as it doesn't get hotter than that, you should be good.

uhm last night i was laying down about to go to bed and i layed my arm on my phone and it was so hot, hotter than my alienware gets xD ive never had a phone or this phone get this hot, it was just charging and such.

[Q] Overheating Problems [franco kernel | cm 10.1]

After having my phone for around a month, I (yesterday) decided to flip the switch and flashed myself cm10.1 and the latest franco kernel. Just now, I reached to pick up my phone (after letting it idle for around an hour and a half in my pocket), and burned my fingers. The thing is running at 46.5c when the highest it used to get for me was maybe 40-42 (watching a movie, or charging).
What do you guys think the cause is, and my best way for fixing (I dont want to go back to stock, but I will if I have to).
Thanks,

your device isnt overheating nor did it burn your fingers. human body temp is 37C, and it was sitting in your pocket at that temp, insulated, keeping warm. 46.5C will not burn you, ever. it could feel warm because the heat is escaping from the glass back to cool off. thats what its supposed to do. you have a quad core device, it WILL get warm.

is this a serious statement or sarcasm? lol.
while charging the battery can get hot, and the device can get really warm, especially if its being used at the slightest bit. besides, what is overheated, i mean what temp does it reach, battery and cpu?

my phone is currently charging and I'm posting this via phone.. so this is in no way sarcasm . it's showing battery temperature as 39 degree Celsius ( checked through *#*#4636#*#*) .. my fingers can feel the heat while I type this... though the heat is not too high but it's not negligible also.

think about this.. your body is 37C. 39C is a bump warmer. since your fingers are extremeties, they will be slightly cooler than the rest of your body. since they are a little cooler, your phone will feel warmer. but in reality, your battery temp is just normal, even relatively cool for being on the charger and being used.

your device isnt overheating nor did it burn your fingers. human body temp is 37C, and it was sitting in your pocket at that temp, insulated, keeping warm. 46.5C will not burn you, ever. it could feel warm because the heat is escaping from the glass back to cool off. thats what its supposed to do. you have a quad core device, it WILL get warm.

Okay, I didn't mean literally 'burn', you're right. My point was that I picked it up and was shocked (figuratively ) by how hot it was.
Again, for the last entire month my phone (on stock) has never reached near this temperature before, even when It was actively running.
[Oh and jacket pocket, it wasnt on me. My point was that it was in a cool, dry, place not charging, and I wasnt using it].

its still a normal temp. tell me, since its spring, has it gotten warmer in your area this past month?

Okay, so saying that makes me stop worrying its going to blow up (happened to my friend's moto milestone back in the day), but it's still a new occurrence to me, which cooincidentally happened right after a changed both my rom and my kernel from stock.
The office aircon is a breezy 24c no matter what day it is .
I was leaning more towards this questions, that I gathered from when i glossed over the two respective threads, but dont understand well enough to decide or check if they're relevant:
-could it be that the rom or the kernel overclocked my phone and thats why its running hotter?
-maybe theres a wake-lock (or partial lock or whatever its called), that had my phone on though it was being left alone?
-did the kernel mess with the radio so now it keeps jumping signals?
-was there an option for 'testicular irradiation' that I accidentally enabled?
Not even sure if these are the right questions to be asking. Definitely not sure what to do about it even if they are...

there could be 1000s of reasons that your device is running a little warmer today, really. it could all just be random too. as long as the battery stays below 55-60C(60C is the battery temp safety shutdown) and the cpu below 80C(95-100C is the cpu safety shutdown). you wont see those high battery or cpu temps unless your really pushing your device(cpu) or watching flash movies/playing intensive games while plugged in(battery). there are safety protocols set in your phone in case it really does overheat.

LMAO.

Simms give it up. Every phone I've had since single core phones hit 1 ghz have all gotten really warm

After having my phone for around a month, I (yesterday) decided to flip the switch and flashed myself cm10.1 and the latest franco kernel. Just now, I reached to pick up my phone (after letting it idle for around an hour and a half in my pocket), and burned my fingers. The thing is running at 46.5c when the highest it used to get for me was maybe 40-42 (watching a movie, or charging).
What do you guys think the cause is, and my best way for fixing (I dont want to go back to stock, but I will if I have to).
Thanks,

mine was also same it quickly reaches above +45c though CUP can handle 100c or battery can handle 60c but i can't hold it in my hand i feel so uncomfortable so planing to put cover on it :fingers-crossed:
There are some screen shot how quickly it get hot with just 5min of facebook. one thing i have under-volt it to 687.5mv.

if you put it in a case itll get a lot warmer because heat cant escape.

Yes that's why I haven't put it yet. But I just flash rosbenjelly heating just wipe out .I am looking for it for long time and finally I got it so nexus 4 heating flash rosbenjelly is solution.

good boy
niw we just got to get you to flash trinity kernel with it :angel:

So you think that trinity kernel which runs at higher clock speeds runs cooler than Franco which runs at stock CPU speeds? Mmmkay. Sure.

um, you run it at whatever speed you want. default, it boots up at 1026mhz, with all 4 core set as minimum, and thats recent. before that, it booted up 1458mhz hotplugging, which is still slightly underclocked. just because you have a choice of raising the cpu speed to 1836mhz, doesnt mean that is the kernel default. you should learn about what youre talking about first, before you say something silly.

Yes I did it and it's cool can we add pie control as in PA 3.15 by removing navigation bar shortcut and status bar.
