I installed on my oppo 5 pure AOSP, which i didn't like so I have decided to move to MIUI.
after moving to MIUI my phone started turning off by itself (screen goes black) and the only way to turn it back on is to connect it to a charger.
So i moved back to stable stock rom and still, moved to stock beta phone crashes.
thank I noticed that the crashes happens whenever the phone is connected to the WIFI or the mobile network data.
if both are off the phone is working steady, but the moment i put any of them on the phone crashes.
BTW it is only mobile network data, phone calls are still working without crashing the phone.
I need help!!!
edit #1: i installed cm10.1 and it doesn't crash when connected to WIFI, but mobile network doesn't work at all (no signal)
edit #2: even when i am doing a proper shutdown to the phone, i cannot power it on unless i connect it to the charger, battery is show more than %50
thanks,
32GB Midnight Black?

I have a similar problem. I suggest you full wipe and install latest beta.
If you have a second phone like me, try to use airplane mode then WiFi. If it still occurs then it is probably hardware.

last night i installed the latest stable, than full wipe, than again flashed the latest stable and left the phone charging for the night.
this morning, it seems like it is working fine, but the battery is draining in a rate of %10 per hour!!! even without doing anything on it
Does it overheat?Can you install battery log and start logging?I want to see the first graph with the Battery + Celsius reading.Mine does something similar, but CM based roms can't even work.

OK, Cool.I need a full discharge log and a charge log (till battery hits 100% again).
Is this with airplane mode on?
the phone battery was draining quicker than before and after 11 hours of low usage, but the upside is that it was behaving fine during these hours. at the 11th hour the phone suddenly died while it was at %21.
now I am charging the phone while it is off until it will reach %100 and i will power it on and upload the logs.
I did not had a secondary phone at the time so i was still using it (well, I was visiting my family so I was eager to show off my new phone )

low use, not on airplane mode.
keep in mind that the strangest thing was that the phone died at %21
here is another log and screenshot.
the phone was on all thru the night starting from around 11pm until this morning around 7am the battery was around %64.
since than again a low usage until now 12pm the battery is at %19.
edit #1: not too long after sending this message my phone died at %7....
why it is off before getting to %0???
Wow mate.Just like mine. It is either hardware or software. Started one day. I will post my logs when I get home. OPPO does not even respond.

no signal and saviour
the no signal problem is a issue that appears on Cm10 and some other roms based on Cm you gotta reboot your device some times until the radio wakes up. the other problem , try to install Aospa ( paranoid android ) and wipe everything wipe factory and system also wipe dalvik cache and cache. install zip and Gapps ( or do the same method but install STOCK , u can find stock firmwareon the oppoforums )

Fully charged my phone night before last and went to work in the morning (9am). I didn't touch it all day, didn't even turn it on. On my drive home at 5pm it was dead, off.
I plugged it in with the phone off when I got home and saw that it was fully charged a few hours later around 10pm and I booted it up and left it alone. This morning it was dead, off.
Looking at the apps that take up my battery doesn't work because it doesn't retain information what happened to the phone prior to the last reboot. Not sure what to do. My awake time matches my standby time exactly. It's obviously a 100% awake time problem but what's triggering this?
I'm on Fresh .3 with absolutely no other mods. I don't think I have any apps that ping outside servers. So what the ****!?
EDIT:
lulz, I just realized I haven't been even able to use the phone in 3 days due to this issue

That's a PITA. This is a clean fresh .3 rom install with only logmein, dropbox and couple non-online games installed. Why is this phone such ****ing fail right now.
Have you removed the Favorites widget? Doing that stopped all battery drain problems for me. Just delete the widget.
First thing to check is if you have a sufficient cellular signal. If you are getting a weak signal it will cause poor battery life. If cell signal strength is not your problem then it is definitely something you have installed on it eating away at your battery. That said check/do the following:
1) Check how frequently you have your accounts syncing
2) Before the phone dies look in your battery use to see what's eating your battery
3) Install a task manager/killer (I use Advanced Task Killer)
4) You don't have to do this one but it does help. I use a program called Startup Auditor to disable startup on apps I don't need to run when the phone first boots (you'd be surprised how many are in there).

delete it completely or remove it from one of the home panels?
the "time without signal" workarounds seem to prove the most effective for me. in addition, reduce background usage and automatic update frequencies as best as you can.
according to this thread [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=709768] (and link within), HTC has acknowledged some issues and is preparing to deploy a few fixes.
You are running someone else's ROM, there could be a problem with the radio, or a problem with the way it was loaded.
If you are in an area where you don't get signal, you are going to drain the battery, and FAST.
Do you have 4g on but not in a 4g area?
I am...
fully rooted and have fresh .3 as well. I am getting over 30hrs with moderate use and the last hour of that I had everything on to purposely run it down to dead. (was doing a toastch recommeded battery meter calibration).
Took my phone off the charger last night at 7:30 pm. It's 2:23pm and I have 31% left. I have Wifi, BT, and Background apps with auto sync turned on.
I would say you might be experiencing the Motorola cell tower problem. HTC has confirmed that the EVO is not playing well with cell towers that have motorola transmitters. It is causing the phone to use more energy to dial in the tower.
To be sure...
1. Set all apps and widgets to manual update or update once a day.
2. Get rid of the people app or widget from any home screen.
3. Go into Gtalk and uncheck auto sign in. Then sign out when you exit the program.
4. charge the phone until the green light comes on. Don't use a battery meter. The second the green light comes on, go into recovery and wipe the battery stats. Reboot the phone and run it until the battery dies and will not longer power the phone. This does nothing for the battery but does recalibrate the internal battery meter.
5. For maximum life...turn off: background data, WiFi, BT, and Mobile networks when not using. keep screen at 1/2 brightness.
If I do the above and manually update mail, weather, social apps, etc... and only turn radios on when I need them, I can get 40 hrs. out of my EVO and this is under moderate to high moderate use.
One other thing....plug your phone in for 10 minutes. Then unplug it and go into immediate stand by for like 30 minutes. Go to settings>about phone>battery>battery use>cell standby. Time without signal should be very low....anything over 10-15% and I'd suspect that if you did everything in 1-5, you have a towers issue robbing your battery.
I was having awake time issues with Fresh .3, so I switched to DamageControl, and everything has been great. Unplugged this morning at 7, and I still have 75% battery remaining. Better battery life than the Hero or BlackBerry Tour!

I seem to be having the same problem as you and it is quite frustrating. I get a steady 10% battery drain every hour even when its idle. I tried juice defender and setcpu and it is still the same. I turned off all my sync accounts and nothing. I also have systempanel and it doesn't seem like theres a rogue app eating my batteries.I'm going to truth to stock tonight to see if something is wrong with my phone. Did you ever figure out what was wrong with your phone?
AVA9 i get 20 hours a charge
but YES something is eating your battery install system pan have and let it run a bit and check the info id bet its
1 your evo spend a lot of tWOS
2 you have a rogue app eating your battery

DOH dear god i did not look at that lol
I do apologize for bumping such an old thread, but I feel like this thread has already asked much of what I also wanted to ask but have not reached a conclusion. Therefore I would like to try and solve the problem or provide as much info as I can to solve the problem.
I indeed have installed systempanel and here are the screenshots for the day.

As you can see besides the internet, there is nothing else thats taking up the battery. Also I took this pic after I put the phone on the charger for a bit, it was at ~ 13% before. The battery usage information says a majority of the battery was used by #1 android system and #2 cell standby, it was neck and neck almost, with #3 being phone idle. My weather app polls every 3 hours, my facebook syncs every 30 mins, my htc sense facebook syncs once a day, and I have not configured any other emails except for two gmail acconts, which received probably 3 emails throughout the whole day.
I just used setcpu today, it made absolutely no difference. Same results as yesterday when I did not have setcpu. Thanks in advance for the help!
dude you need to try my setup: superevo and setcpu
i got 7 days of battery using the evo as a simple phone.

Why would anyone use an EVO as a simple phone.
I am beginning to think peoples opinions on moderate use vary tooooo much. The EVO is similar to an unplugged laptop. The more you make the cpu work the faster your battery is going to drain.
It seems some people just dont get that.

Just this week my phones battery has lost its mind. I use a my touch 4g with the standard battery and had a usual battery life of 12 hours or more easily. Now from this Tuesday I've had a battery life of 4 hours from 100% to 0%. I have to charge the battery 3 times a day. Most of the battery is used when idle for some reason and I've looked at what uses the most battery in spare parts but the app will constantly crash.

I'll tell you what's funny. Is my mom and i have the same phone and we are having the same exact problem that you are mentioning. In fact i have Auto Sync off / GPS off / data ON /and i've lost 12% of my battery in the past 3 hours. My battery usage stats don't look that off. but something is seriously going AWOL.
same issue here on 2x phones.. These seemed to correspond to the radio upgrade i did from the official gingerbread release.
I have since backed out of it, going back to the previous version. However, the issue has seemed to continue.
I have done the following (prob didn't need too, but wanted to cover the bases)
* Wipe cache
* wipe dalvik
* reflash rom
* apply kernel update
... I seem to still be experiencing the severe drain, phone is hot..
I did just notice the cell tower GPS was turned on, i disabled this to see if it helps.
Next step will be to remove the market update i recently did that also corresponds to the problem.
Other then this... i'm at a loss as to wtf...
I updated my radio this morning but I was experiencing the problem before the update so I don't think it was that.
I had that same issue when I updated to the newest radio...ate my battery up like a fat kid in a twinkie factory! So I went back to .09.04, wiped battery stats, calibrated battery with the app, and now my battery life is getting back to normal

I was thinking about this last night. t-mobile knows what phones we have by IMEI numbers. And since they are pushing the 2.3.4 update out. I wonder if they are pinging our phones trying to get our phone to accept the update. And since we aren't running a recognized ROM it's sending back the information the computer is wanting and thus the cycle continues. Killing our batteries.
Everything on my phone right now is stock and the battery still drains like mad. Last night I left the phone idle at 100% and by my math I was losing 5% every 10 mins so by the time I finished watching two movies without even glancing at the phone my battery was dead. Now I notice that the phone takes about 5 hours to charge as well.
I have been experiencing the same issue since Wednesday. I've wiped, reflashed, changed from cyanogen to virtuous unity. Nothing stops the drain except putting the phone in airplane mode. There is a pretty serious discussion in the t-mobile support forums where a lot of people, both rooted and not, are experiencing the quick drain. It seems t-mobile has acknowledged this to an extent but hasn't issued any statement with any clarity as to why or when it will be fixed. One thing is becoming more apparent though and that is that it seems to be a network issue. Some people have removed google maps and fixed the problem but that didn't work for me.

By Putting the device in AirPlane mode you are bypassing the HSPA network. and cutting all ties with it. There HAS to be something pinging our phones. HAS to be.

airplane mode disables ALL of the radios, including gps...
I seriously doubt something is pinging the phone. I don't believe the update check works like that.
^^^^Just tried the above method to no avail. Battery % just dropped another 3 percent in about 15 minutes. This issue seems to be spreading fast. I proudly consider myself a geek but I am stumped as far as knowing what to do. I guess we are at the mercy of t-mobile.
Interesting..... I've noticed the exact same thing the last few days. Normally when I'm at home and my phone is on wifi, I can go to sleep with the phone at around 95% and wake up in the morning and the phone is at around 91% or 92%. Wednesday I woke up and my phone was at 63%, I was shocked. I'm running Royal Ginger 2.1(I've been running it for some time now). So something has changed and I personally don't think it's the ROM. The suggestion about the official gingerbread update from tmobile seems like a pretty good assessment considering its been happening to a lot of people (rooted and non rooted) over the last week.

I had the same battery drain problem for the past few days also. I saw an article on another site about recent battery drain problems for a different T-mobile phone. (i think it was the G2) A few ppl on there named a couple apps that they thought were causing it: the recent Google Maps update, the Market update, and the Google Plus app. So I uninstall the two updates and the Google+ app, let my phone die completely and charged it all the way, with the phone off, uninterrupted.
That was 19 hrs ago and I have 60% left and I've been browsing the web, with wifi on, and playing a few different games for most of the day. I don't know which one of those things fixed it, but I had to be one of them. Before this I was lucky to get through the work day with more than 20% left with little use. Hope this helps some of you fix this.
I was having the same issue and clearing the gps state as mentioned above seems to have worked.
EDIT: This did not work. I was out in a gsm only area so my phone was running on 2g and as soon as I got back to HSPA+ area battery drain started happening again. Might be going to Verizon if this keeps up.
Normally, after work, my battery would be around 85%, but all of a sudden, yesterday, my battery after work was only 24%. I am not sure what is the cause of this behavior. I installed apps like tripit, travelsafe, skyscanner, onthefly, but I don't think that should cause this.
I have tried the battery removal trick, but it hasn't worked. The phone wakes up every few minutes and therefore, drains a lot of battery. Could someone offer good insight into what is causing this and how to solve this permanently? Thanks.

According to the tings I've read, you should always unlock the screen before removing the charger and if the problem persists just do a reboot.
That's what always works for me - on Speedmod kernel.
I'm on sppedmod kernel and sometimes will not go into deep sleep...phone will get very hot in my pdocket which to me is a sign that its not going into deep sleep. ill then do a reboot and monitor thru cpuspy. reboot works but I've not found a permanent solution as yet.

Thanks for your replies, but unfortunately, rebooting hasn't worked for me.
What else can I do? Please do not suggest formatting or wiping anything, as it would be too much of a pain to do with my current configuration.
Perhaps you can try to - flash abyss 3.9 for GB - run that jbroid kernel cleaning - reflash your kernel.

Have you tried going to Airplane mode only? If you haven't done that, then try to see if you can turn your phone mode off and observe if your still getting the high battery drainer issue.
One of the big drainers in the battery are your high percentage screen output. If you got a high screen % output that means you got wakelocks and it's being triggered by an app/s on your phone.
See if you can disable one by one those apps you mentioned above, charge up your phone to say 10 to 15 mins, take out the charger, set screen timeout (on settings to 15 secs) and turn off the screen and set your phone to airplane mode off. Observe for an hour without using it.
Note the percentage on your Screen from the time you took out the charger to the time you check back (after an hour) to see if it had gone down already.

Hi,
ICS has this 200 MHz problem and, for the moment, there doesn't seem to be a lot to do about it. I reboot every morning after charging and I'm fine for the day.
Without getting paranoiac about your battery (you have your phone because you use/need it, not for becoming a world champion in Deep Sleep ), mind what you install.
I usually "lose" between 1~2% capacity/hour and manage to run it a whole day with ~60% of the battery (WiFi, BT and GPS active). Yesterday I installed some Security thing and jumped to 4~5% immediately. It also caused constant 200 MHz mode and reboot didn't change a thing.
I dumped it this morning and am fine again. Here's my situation after 3h48m of activity today, I have 88% left
(Sorry for the big picture but I don't manage otherwise )
I keep my GNote as standard as I can and just verify briefly, with CPU Spy if everything is fine after installation of a new App. If it's no good I delete it and that's it.
Thanks everyone for the replies. Without quoting everyone, let me say I have tried all the tests you guys suggested. I have tried the airplane method, rebooting, monitoeing for apps, etc. I dont have latitude so didn't try that method. I also reinstalled speedmod k3-3 kernel last night.
I upload there images: system battery info., cpuspy and betterbaterystats. It seems, for now, my phone IS doing a little better with going into deep sleep. Unfortunately, I don't know which method worked, so I don't have a definite solution for anyone suffering from the same issue. As an observation, my phone used to go into deep sleep mode much more than it does now.
Edit: I have attached the following five screenshots to be analyzed. It seems the issue is not solved yet, and the phone still doesn't go into deep sleep the way it should. Could someone help point out from the screenshots what's going on? Thanks.

Edit: Another reason for frustration that I can't upload the screenshots directly from my phone as they are pngs and jpegs. While uploading i get an error that says the images are not in the correct foemat. How do you upload the screenshots directly from your phone?

Could someone please examine the cause of the issue from the attached screenshots in my earlier post?

Have you tried removing the battery for a few mins? Try that then reinstall the battery and charge the phone for a few hours while off. It worked for me. Found the tip on the India update thread.

In your screenshots you have WiFi running for a lengthy period.
WiFi is notorious for eating the Battery.
Only use it when you actually need it.
The only contradiction to this is when you are actually using WiFi for an extensive period (do not include turning off the screen and leaving WiFi running in this description) it is kinder on the Battery than a Data Plan.
Also, as jpmiv mentions.... don't just remove the Battery (which I note you have already tried this method) but again as jpmiv mentions leave the Battery out of your Note for a short while before reinserting. It will clear away any residual memory on the Note.

I put the phone last night into airplane mode, turned it off and charged it for several hours.I'll test how it works today and post the results. If it doesn't show any signs of improvement, I will try your recommended method.
For historical information, I did try removing the battery for more than 10 mins, but did not charge it while it was turned off after inserting the battery. As I said, I will try your method after some testing today.

Yes.
Thanks to both of you for your suggestions. I'll post results tonight.
Could you or someone comment on any rogue apps from the screenshots which are causing the battery to drain faster? Is the behavior as shown in the screenshots for kernel and partial wake locks normal?

It's definitely your WiFi which is the main culprit.
Look at the WiFi Running and wlan_rx_wake
Have you turn off your WIFI dude?
Judging on the screenshots you made... your WIFI has been ON for a lengthy of time and anyone knows that if you enable your WIFI, it's surely going to eat most of your battery.
Try to see if you turn it off, and see if there's a considerable on your phone's battery after.

Yes, wifi is on, but what I should have mentioned is that I used to have a much better deep sleep time even with wifi on before last Friday when the issue began showing up. Also note that the wifi was on only because I was home - when I am at work, I am on data connection.
Is there anything else in terms of apps that you find unusual or the cause of the issue? Something is waking up my Note more often than it used to.

Hey,
I have an HTC HD2 (obviously ), what I've charged to 100% last evening. I've switched it off (I'm absolutely sure I did) and when in the morning I've switched it on it indicated the battery was empty, it was 0%. Of course the phone switched off almost immediately.
I'm using Android 4.1.1 ParanoidAndroid 2.15 by Xlyo.
What do you think, what could cause this really huge battery drain while, the phone was switched off?!
Thanks in advance!
VDodi
EDIT: I've forgot to state I have had no battery issues before. Normal drain at all time, 4-6 mha during sleep.
Hello,
Was the phone/battery hot when it you touched it?
Could be as simple as a bent battery pin.
Good luck.
I did not notice anything unusual... besides it became empty
Anyway nothing extraordinary happened before or up until now, so... i do not know... perhaps just an error in the matrix
What do mean by switched it off?
If the display is off many things still can run, wifi., Bluetooth, , app update, a game...
If you mean physically off the hardware is cause as stated above.
What does 'current widget' say just after waking up?

Hey,
I mean the switched of as turned off (power off).
Btw. really interesting because I clearly remember the Android started up, but no logs have been made by the CurrentWidget I have a log entry from 0:01:16 and the next one is 22:37:29 (I charged the phone via recovery and only after went to Android again).
No unusual behaviour since then so maybe it was a coincidence.
