Battery drain when slided up, Help !

I got softbank that eat battery like mad ( only got 30 minutes of use ) when used with slide up (lanscape mode). but when i used without keyboard, I get about 2 days of battery.
Anyone have similiar problem ??
plase share ?
Thank you

looooooooool
thats very wierd have u tried soft reset it ?

better yet a hard reset!!!

Mine is almost always on keyboard mode and I get a solid two days worth of battery life, with constant bluetooth and regular WiFi usage. Without, I've gone to three days. Right now I've already gone beyond 36 hours and I've still got 50%.

I already fix the proble, dismanteled the unit and reseat the flex cable connector, but now the screen does not respon when tapped ?
Any one here have similiar problem ?
Why does this hardware have a lot of problem ?
Thank you

Enormeous battery drain....

Hello to you all!
I'm expiriencig an hudge battery drain since 2 days.
Normaly my battery last for arround 24h. Yesterday I'v unplugged my phone at 6.30AM and till 1PM (I'v made only one call appr. 5min and 3g was on all the time - no othe use!) the battery was gone...
The same in the afternoon and today... I don't remember if the phone ingetting preety warm durrin chargin cos I'm playing or seing tether durring chargeing or sleeping. Now with turned off everything the uper part of the phone (includeing camera and screen) is getting very warm! like durring long playing games with 3G....
I belive it all began with installing the google+ app... I'v just uninstalled it and chargeing the device (every things turned off and still hot...).
Will see if it was that, cos battery stats are ok and battery usage apps arent showeing nothin suspicious...
Any suggestions? I was runnig the sam ROM and config for a longer time without problems...
Ther's another thing I forgot to say - when I'm tryeing to charge the phone while it's on it's not chargeing - the battery get's drained even faster! for egz. when it's 15% charged after 15mins under charger its 4%!!!

To know what's causing the Awake when screen is off, install Better Battery Stats and see under Wakelocks. Confirm if it is G+ or anything else.

Best thing would have to full charge it, and wait till its like 5% battery, then check the stats.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App

Will do that!
Will charge it durring the night and than will wait till it's nearly gone....
It got better i think - without 3G the drain is bearly there but with 3G on it's bad... It wasn't like that before...
Could it be that installing the google+ app it activated kinda sys updates or similar?

Hi oofol!
When you have installed google+ app, have you checked "instant upload"?
It could be the problem.

Yep, done that however I can't imagine it should suck off the battery that much!
FB is working ok

try juice defender

Allready installed
It seems that it was the fould of google+.........

The problem is that when you check this option, your mobile upload all your picture to Picasa and google's server.
At this moment if you're not connect in wifi....
Becareful for those who don't wanna be caught with their bills!

I know about that - and I did want that (I'v got a plan without data limits).
The drain was almost normal today.
However I'm now connected via USB to my laptop and I'm tethering. As I connected the phone it was arround 48% of juice and now it's falling... now its 8% and falling............
Why isn't it chargeing???
I cant understand that...

So, I think I solved the issue.
Yesterday I uninstalled (I was useing ist fo a couple of weeks without any problems...) BitDefender and the phone is chargeing on tethering and the battery life seems to be normal for now
Thanks ithehappy for the tip wit BBS it helped a lot

[Q] Battery Status / Lifetime at Pdaimatejam ROM

Hi Guys!
I have flashed my HD with Pdaimatejam ROM, this rom is awesome! But I have one question:
Every time I made a hard reset, my battery status show about 1 day and 10 hours of lifetyme in 100% of charge.
After 5 or 6 days, HD2 shows about 20hours in 100%. and so on...
This happened also in ROM HD2O I had installed few months ago!
This is normal? Or a radio problem?
Radio Version: 5.51.09.29_22.32.50.10u
Thanks!

The estimation is based on your current consume ....
I think is more relevant to monitor your real battery drainage using a dedicated application like "Battery Status" or "BatteryTool".

Yes, i know, but i dont changed nothing in my use...
How i can control with Battery status or Battery tool?

Hi!
WP has to "learn" how you use it so the first week or two you'll notice the battery status changing a lot It is practically unusable so I would recommend (like mentioned above) that you install battery status or the htc battery tool. You can find the xap-files on the forum if you do a little searching ;-) As an alternative you could look on marketplace - there are a few apps out there for the purpose!
If you need help to figure out how they work - just ask! :-D
/Anders

Hi Anders!
Thank you for your kindness in quote! I downloaded the battery tool, and from what I understand it only shows the percentage of the battery, right?
Also downloaded the HTC battery tool, it shows me some more accurate data, but do not know how to use them, you could help me to improve?
I noticed that my HD2 spends too much power in standby (like 4 or 5 percent at hour without use, with 3g, wifi, localize and more off), is there any way to minimize this?
Thanks so much!
hug
Sergio
ps: sorry my bad english, im Brazilian!

Hi again!
No worries about your english - understand perfectly ;-)
You are right about the battery app from the marketplace only shows the voltage and percentage remaining. Its nice for your startpage but other than that not that usable.
The HTC battery app on the other hand gives you a great deal of info! What you have to look for is battery current. It should be between 5 and 10 when you have had the phone on standby for some minutes with the settings you describe...
Anything else you would like to know?
/Anders

Sorry to be asking me all the time, but you are helping me right! Thank you!
I installed the tool for HTC battery, the tests and did as you instructed me! it shows the values ​​of -80 to -100: |, is this normal?

can somebody pls tell me why I get only 7-8 hrs of battery life and also why my hd2 always heats up..

Did u deactivate DATA, 3G, localization and other things?

drainage and heating is not connected only to those settings, i got on mine all that turned on, + mail sync ewery 30 minutes, and battery lasts ower 24 hours with normal day usage (surfing on 3G is most intense on battery for me)
Its hard to say what is causing high battery drainage, because for me first it was SD card, so after I changed it ewerything was good for day or two, than my screen broke (tough luck) and while i was fixing it, i used an old iPhone which broke my sim card (more tough luck) in way that celular data didnt work, and that caused teriblle drainage when I fixed HD2. So after replacing sim card it was ok again (2+ days on batery saver prediction, but usualy lasts for day and half).
p.s. I use yuki-xbmod rom on adata 8gb C4 sd card

if I let those things turned on, my battery life is halved, this may not be the main but I think it works, right?
I'm using a SD SanDisk's 16GB class 6, once wore a sandisk 8gb class 4 and nothing has changed about the battery life .. it's not strange?
Does the capacity of the SIM influences that too? there are various SIMs sizes right? mine is very old: D

That does sound strange I must say :-( Could you try to turn on flight-mode, let it rest for 30 mins or so and then check the batterystatus again? Then at least we can tell if the radio is draining the phone or not!

I always turn of localization and sometimes use 3g. My data is always on. Am using a 16 SanDisk card. I don't know the problem. Am thinking of doing a task29 and reflashing the rom. Do I have to repartition the size in Magldr? And can u plz give me simple steps in doing it because I will be using hd2 toolkit and that will be my first time. Thank you...

[problem] battery weakness

Dear android developers
2 days ago i had a problem with a rom, so i had to take out the battery. When i placed the battery back in the problem was solved. Unfortuanetly something happend afterwards and now my battery is really weak its been 8 hours since i last charged the phone now it is %16 Ive tried changing roms. I even downloaded cm7 which was pretty good on battery drain, now its really weak hope you guys can help me.
Thanks in advance

try draining the battery till the phone shuts down

Turn off the phone, try to fully charge, to green LED lights up, then go to ClockworkMod recovery, advanced, and select wipe battery stats.
Maybe this help u
greets from poland

clean the contacts on the battery, blow out the compartment with canned air. sounds like a bad connection to the battery.
fyi the led turns green at 90% charge.
and i need more data than its weak.
screen shots of usage after 8hrs would rock.

If phone are turned off, orange change to green at 100% of battery.
If android are running, green LED turns on at 95% battery (for me, AndroidRev 2.3.5 sense 3.0)

You might have messed up your battery with the pull somehow, if not just let it charge for a long time and see where you are at from there.

Drain the battery in normal use until it shuts off, then go to bootloader and drain the battery until you can't access the bootloader, then do a full charge of the battery.

[Q] Defy+ MB526 bettery discharge too fast

Hello!
This week I bought a new Defy+ MB526.
Tried to root it, no success.
After thinking I flashed:
DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP231_AR_SIGN_UCADEFYEMARAB1B80AA004.0R_PDS03C_USAJRDNGIBRRTARAB_P016_A027_M001_Service1FF.sbf
The problem is I have to charge battery twice a day! Yesterday I charged it to 100%, and after 7 hours (WiFi on, BT standby, GPS standby, no calls\sms) battery fall to 50%.
I used to have HTC HD2 with CM9, ICS 4.0.4 and battery could last for 2 days before charge needed..
Does anyone have an idea what causing it and what to do?
Thanks!

Sometimes it happens to me a similar problem. Battery get drained within a few hours without any CPU activity. What I can say is that it seems to happen especially in the move while fast hopping from one cell to another. Battery suddenly reaches +40°C which is a good pointer to expect only a few hours of phone activity. As of now I didn't try to reboot the phone, though.

Questions go in the Q&A section

In my case, battery didn't rise ~32 degrees. The only Time it goes over ~40 degrees is when charging.
Currently I'm starting to be sorry for bought this device..

Reflash the ROM. And calibrate your battery.There's an APP for that in the play store (If I remember it correctly)
PS: You're sorry for buying it. M sorry 'cause mine's been stolen & I miss it..

battery discharging soon
using cm 10 on my defy + mb 526
battery discharging very fast which used to last long before rooting my phone
GPS -off , wi fi -off , 2G data - on some times
please help
