excessive battery consumption... help needed

Hi.
i am using Touch HD with extended 2600mAH battery and lots of software but the battery barely last a day. i was hoping you could help me diagnose the problem.
configuration :
-duttys XT 3.0 using manila
-1 hour of talk time a day at the most
these are my main suspects :
-checking for mail on two accounts every half an hour
-S2U2 1.62
-phonealarm
-pocketbreeze new PB2
-touchresponse
i installed nueDynamicClock but i can't see any difference.
first of all, maybe this sounds normal to you ? maybe my device is defected ? i'm sure the battery is ok.
maybe someone knows a good battery diagnostic program...
any comments you have on any of my suspected software ?
thanks,
david

Try this, quoted from official HTC site:
My battery drains fast even without using Bluetooth, WiFi or GPS. Is there any way to check if it’s faulty or not?
1. Charge the battery to 100%. 2. Disable from running or uninstall any 3rd party applications. 3. Disable Bluetooth. 4. Disable WiFi. 5. Enable flight mode 6. Set backlight to maximum settings. 7. In the power management settings, uncheck any option that would set the backlight to turn off. 8. Let phone stay idle for 1 hour and check battery capacity. 9. If there is a loss of 40% or more, then this means that battery is faulty and needs to be replaced.

Thanks for that. I've been a little concerned with my battery life so i'll give that a try later.

well obviously this doesn't help me too much because, as stated, the battery last almost a day with full usage so this diagnostic will be a negative... but surely something is wrong. Thanks anyway.
didn't anyone have any problems with one of the above ?

Max battery life
Battery drain in almost a day is quite normal with most of the roms
exception, i flashed Black Pearls v2.4 rom and the battery is still 20 to 30% at the end of the day. myself satisfied with the performance of this rom...

flashing a rom just to check this seems like a overkill...
i was wondering about any diagnostic tools allowing me to see the consumption without waiting a whole day to compare, any on knows of any ?

Why dont you check the idle cpu usage when your phone is on but not doing anything. It should be 98-99% most of the time. If you get high cpu usage by shell or services then it is most probably phoneAlarm or other plugins on Today screen.
If you are using wifi, make sure you set it to off when standby. (Note: If you are using AE Button (mine is v2.63) and if you use it to turn ON wifi, the wifi will not go to sleep even in standby thus draining battery)

What effects Battery the most?

Been trolling the forums, for a while, and I am wondering.. what effects battery life the most.. type of windows rom? the radio? kernal? or Android build?...
thanks guys.

Antartica or Panama? Where, when, how?

Operating system? Screen colors? Flashlight for movies or photos?
Battery - energy loss or charge? Age - recycles from deep discharge? Plugged for longer than needed? Air temperature or silicon cased? Temperature with heavy energy drain?
Not a simple question.

As far as software goes, the biggest killers of battery I've noticed have been push notifications and wifi. Turning both of them off almost doubled my battery life. I now have my emails synched every 10 or 15 minutes instead.

In addition to wifi and push, a big one maybe the biggest, which is often overlooked, is screen brightness. These big giant screens burn a lot of battery. Keeping it as dim as you can stand it will actually save quite a fair share of battery

I feel silly for not mentioning that one myself now

heres a funny thing i found, i replaced my Apacer 8GB Class 4 card with a Sony 8GB class 4 card. the phone use to hang with the apacer card.
the thing is, ever since i´ve made the change, the phone sucks up twice as much power.

Theres great ways to make your battery last here too:

Especially #8
Calibrating Android's battery read will allow Android to fully charge your battery, and if you have battery profiles in setcpu, then the app will scale your processor speed by a more accurate reading, giving you longer battery life. I did it on the couple of builds I use most, and it really does make a difference
And dont feel silly john, I sometimes take my enormous screen for granted too
Edit: hmmm maybe my class 2 is why i get good battery life, maybe a slower r/w speed sucks less juice?

well, i know all of the normal tricks.. like screen brightness, wifi off, email push...
i am just looking for a windows rom, a radio, and an android rom, to get the best battery life...
thanks again guys.

Have a look at my signature.
Data enabled, push every hour only 5mA in standby.
If it is in airplane mode it only uses 2mA most of the time. That's quiet good

From what I can tell, the single most important factor for better battery life is using an auto boot app, such as Exceller's, to boot into Android soon as possible. I set mine to auto boot in 3sec. If you let WM/Sense boot fully, you will experience higher than normal battery drain; around 60-70 mA drain in standby. Also, try installing Advanced Configuration Tool in WM and enable all options under Power Management. Have tried these techniques with pretty much every WM Rom and Android combo and average around 3-9 mA draw in standby with wifi, sync, gps and data all enabled. This translates to about a day and a half of moderate use for me. Also, remember that Sense builds tend to use slightly more battery than non-sense builds.

This method really works! The simplest way!

I have trying different things for some times as why my HD2 was always 60mA+ power drain but some others reported as low as 5mA in standby mode. I tried different builds and different settings but none worked. I almost want to flash to change my stock rom or give up the idea of using Android.
Thanks to you! Follow your way, I now only 9mA with my stock rom. A considerable improvement in battery standby.
Thank you very much.

my phone tells me power in mV how does this equate to mA?

It doesn't really, mV is a measure of state (what condition your battery is in), mA is a measure of change (how much power is currently leaving/entering your battery).
Download current widget, free from market, to track the current (= in mA)

Current Widget. Set it to update every 60 secs, and then leave your screen off for more than 60 secs, turn the screen back on, and check the widget.
Battery drain with screen off should be somewhere between 5-9 mA

Nice tips here guys...
My battery meter in the status bar looks about 60-70% full, but battery widgets say i have about 50%.
Does this mean that I need to calibrate?
I tried to delete the battery stats with Droid Explorer but it seems to be in read only? (It doesnt do anything when i click delete).
I guess I'll set up ADB and delete that way.
Also I seem to get better battery without LED me know, (why do i need this?)

Just run terminal emulator on your phone and type:
su
rm /data/system/batterystats.bin

oh, you can do this on the phone.
Thanks bro!
I hope to see improvements as my theory that the status bar battery reading vs widget battery reading being so different = it needs calibration.
Edit
I am now using Exceller's auto boot, and the my draw peaks are waaay lower, but the idle has gone up! (60-80 now...)

[Q] how to enlarge the battery life

i've seen in some posts that the hd2 battery could take up to 3 days and loose anly 2% - 5% during the night ... well for me it's impossible ... my phone at standby eats 5% per hour .... i have 2 battery and thy drain the same ...i want to know if it's similar for everybody or just me ... and if there's any application or setting to make the battery life longer .

turn off bluetooth, wifi and data to conserve battery life
download currentwidget and see what the draw is on your battery when it is on standby

If you are on a Gingerbread build like I am, you may want to uncheck the Data Enabled box found under Settings/Mobile & Wireless Settings. I found just by unchecking this on the Pongster CM7 build I am on, it stopped the frequent battery spikes I was experiencing. Also, like the other poster said, turn off all active sync, WiFi, GPS Bluetooth, etc. if your build doesn't do already. Use Current Widget found on the Market to determine stand by battery drain. After I unchecked the Data Enabled box, I went from an overnight drain of 20-25% down to 3-4%. On the Froyo build looking at my wife's Android phone, you would uncheck Enable Always-On Mobile box. Hope this helps your situation.

..must be any third party app. My drainage is 2% in flightmode every night. Already tried to find out which app cause your drainage?...also your standby drainage is a bit high. Im losing 1mah per hour or less with data on.

A steady 1mA or less is virtually impossible with the HD2...let alone any phone.
But as a rule of thumb, Android should drain 2-9mA when in standby, it just varies by build, location, what you have installed, signal quality, etc.
Where I live, I have full signal but only Edge and I have data, bluetooth, gps, and auto sync on and I drain on average 6mA when in standby.
You either have Wifi on (it causes weird drain issues), bad signal or an app that is eating your battery.

of course i disable everything .....so if i go to setting/about phone/battery use may i see all what drain my battery or i have to get an application that can give exact informations ...

i installed the current widget and in the classic apprearence i see 204 mA and in the clear text apprence i see 204 mA with 89% in the battery. is it normal?

let your screen off for 2 minutes and then check your consumption with current widget(the widget should refresh the value every minute by default)
..so you can be sure that teh shown value is teh standyby value.
The standby value should be between 2-5ma.
When your screen is on it should drain between ~100 - ~300ma depending on your screen brightness.

i did wait for 2 mn and here's what hapend:
at 10:38. 59 mA
at 10:40. 58 mA
at 10:41. 354 mA
the battery went from 98% to 90% with 10 mn in 3G in about 30 mn
if u undestand please tell me

Maybe a little more information about what ROM you are using. There are quite a few experimental ones out there. I'm using CMYLXGO's Bluetopia usually, but I like to try different ones all the time. My battery is usually pretty good with about two days with medium to light use.

in about phone i see systeme android 57% than standby gsm with 17% ...
i'm using now hyperdroid v12 but i used rafdroid, coredroid, and cm7 and almost the same battery draining ...
i thought it's my battery but when i used another one i saw no diffrence
with heavt use i cant stand a half of day

Are you restoring a backup after trying a new rom?
...try with a clean rom without any apps installed.
Seems that an app prevents your phone to go to standby.

you right ... i did a restore i will try a clean install as u suggested and see the battery drain befor installing any application ...
i want to know if Clk or Magldr or the build version ( 2.3/2.4) have any realation with battery drain ...
i've read that the sense rom and rom based on hd build drain battery faster ... if u used much roms u would see that some roms use battery more than others ... so please i need a personal suggestion from u to use any special rom ( with fm radio if possible...too bad it dosnt work on hyperdroid)
thank u for ur support

no one to answer?

[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".

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!

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!

Note 4 battery problem after flashing some custom roms

Hi everyone, i have problem with my note 4, battery drops from 11 % to 3% very fast and charges after 85% very slow.. this problems started 2 days ago when i flashed dn5 custom rom i thought it was rom problem and flashed sixperience rom but still i have same issue also i tried battery calibration but again.... what can i do???? and my screen on time is only 3 hour. please help me, thanks.

Have you checked what's eating away at your battery? Settings => Battery (Here you should be able to see if anything is causing a drain).
If the settings screen doesn't seem to show anything, you could try BetterBatteryStats (This app will be able to tell you everything that's going on regarding running processes, wakelocks,... You should give it a day or so from a fully charged battery.)
And if even BBS doesn't show anything, I'd flash the stock firmware again (And check if it isn't the battery).

Well, in all fairness, mine is running CM 12.1, and SOT is a bit under 4hrs. Which isn't fantastic either. Quickcharge does slow down a bit after a certain percentage. You could try a new battery, but might be a waste of money.

I am facing exactly the same problem .. I don't think buying a new battery will solve this problem.
My mobile is charging by AC very very slow and sometimes it stuck at certain percentage for hours and I tried many things but I am still facing this problem... While recharging if I removed the battery and put it again, the phone shows me that it is 100% while it was not 100% at all.
I wish someone can help us about this problem or if any of u guys tried a new battery and the problem has been solved, so please feed us back in here

well after 3 4 days (i mean after flashing sixperience rom) everything is ok. discharge to 0% then wait and full charge + calibrate battery may fix issue. but still dont like screen on time. only up to 3.5 4 hours

That sounds weard...
I mean the good thing is we could change the battery.

I have a feeling this is not battery issue. it's exynos + apps running on the background. Try to root + disable unnecessary apps (maybe Android 4.4 Would give you higher SOT). I had Note 3 previously and SOT was at the level of around 6 hrs (snap processor) - now on exynos it's around 4 hrs on stock firmware (5.1.1).
