It's similar to other battery thread, but not exactly.
I use my HD2 from 5 weeks, and till now, even on the beginning I have very good opinion about battery, I wasn't understand Yours posts about battery weakness.
Till now...
Form a week I use data connections via GPRS ( before that I was on delegation ( roaming ) Whole week was OK, 2, sometimes 3 days on one charging.
Today ( Saturday ) I disconnect charger about 11:00 and now - 23:30 I have only 11% - for me is a total break down.
What's change since yesterday day , and day before yesterday ?
Today I use my HD2 less. I don't use wifi, or gps, I talk 3 times, and send 1 sms - that's it - I also connect 3 times for data update ( weather, mail, rss ) but I did almost the same in last 4 days - even frequently.
Rom that i use its not so important because it wasn't changed it since 2 weeks, and before today it was ok.
Only change is that I was out of gsm network reach ( my parents-in-law live in tiny village - ( I was out 4 or 5h ) and
I know that most of battery goes to network search, but not that amount.
I also had a lot of opened apps in back ground
What could happened ?
I have all battery-tweaks running.
This time, at morning I use official charger, normally I charge using usb active synch cable.
Any ideas ?
Did you do a simple soft reset? It happens that some program sometimes screws up and prevents the phone from entering standby.
My thoughts :
1. Backgroung runnigg apps drain battery - maybe there is some type of app that not closed cause battery drain - processor usage.
2. official charger - to rapid ( to big current ) - charging to quick can give false 100% state flag - in real it's charger for example to half of capacity.
3. out of network - maybe trying to connect for data synch without network cause some kind of 'try loop' that drain battery
4. Most of connection start when I turn screen on - it cannot be coincident to use phone in the time of automatic update almost every time.
Maybe there's some bad routine to check is screen on to start synch. - that drain batt.
I had 1 freez caused by rss hub - and I manage to unfroze it in combination of still working 'start' and 'standby' ( end call ) button.
You can be right wit simple soft reset. I just do it and we will see tomorrow.
I have noticed that the charge frop pc via usb that shows 100% runs out in a much faster time than when phone is turned off and pluged in to mains charger. have also had much better battery life since i flashed radio to 2.07.51.22.2 hope thats of some use to you.
I have the similar situation , again !
It's funny because my battery life is very short when I'm NOT using phone at all.
Yesterday I check my phone only twice , and i sow that batt level change from 47% to 9% in just 5 h ! ( loss of 38% ) - but from 100% at Saturday evening to Monday morning - 47% ( loss of 53 % ) it takes 40h.
I think that's all about some application, probably htc email data update. it's working hard when phone is in stand by , or it prevent processor to goes to stand_by mode.
You indeed have a program preventing standby, this matches what you can see here.
I'd recommend installing a program that can show current consumption (like battclock), making a soft reset, anc checking standby current regularly inbetween opening programs etc to try and find out the culprit.
Dear All i am new on this forum but i love the answers from all people here , today i register my self and ask the issue of my own set , yesterday i bought HTC velocity used set from Local market , i simply checked evrything there with HTC code, and run all test , just the cell was not charged so guy put in on charge and show me the charging that its charging and i pay him took the cell .. but when i came home , i charged it all night and it completed finally after 7 8 hours , but i observe the battery is going down quickly after some mins and i can see the dropping % while using it . hardly in 2 to 3 hours the whole battery gets till end .
i went back him and told him he said its battery issue and will give me another battery tomorrow . i show this set to one another guy in market he said its short circuit from inside 5% approx thats why no other battery will also work . all batteries will behave same . but the Shop guy from whom i bought said its battery problem i will give u another.
so now i am confused what is Right . let me tell u some points i face. when i close set and open back . the battery goes up like 10% and then again it comes down after some mins . what is this issue? is it Cell hardware issue or battery issue??
Andriod Asssitant App sometimes show Battery portion whole red , instead the battery is charged . and sometimes it shows proper Green Portion with Red.. why it stucks on battery portion only???
other Problem , i Swtich off Auto Sync , Brightness , and all other things which eat battery btu behavior is still same ! No Difference , the Battery % goes down every min or 2 min without any use.
yesterday night the battery Eat 45% wwhole night on Stand by . pelase Suggest what should i do???? is it hardware fault? or battery Fault?
waiting for your reply
Hi , I have rooted a fair few phones in my time , but I am quite happy currently with the official rom........BUT only issue I have is that the battery does not seem to be reporting corrctly , normally when I have fully charged the phone , from a full discharge , the phone will be at 100 percent , but then fairly quickly drop to 96 percent , then the percentage will go down fairly quickly but then hang around on certain percentages for a long time....without dropping...unrealistic long times on the same percentage.....
I have tried basic methods such as when the phone drops to say 96 percent , charge the phone again until 100 percent , at that point the phone when taken off of charge is great almost like fully normal , but then if I reset the phone the percentage problem will begin again....
Is there a way to delete the battery stats on the phone without rooting the phone ? I am pretty sure that is all that is needed , I am reluctant to reset the phone fully as it took me ages to get it set up and working how I like it...............................
Help please.
Hi everyone, I have a problem with my sister''s phone (SM-G903F) , after the last charging it's draining extremely fast battery with 1%/minute. Even with phone turn off and battery inserted , the area around sim card is overheating in just a few minutes and battery drain extremely fast. I replaced the battery with a new one .... no effect .I have accessed the battery usage in settings and I saw that the screen consumes 100% although the brightness is 50% and the screen darkening time is 30 seconds What may cause this problem and what could be the solution ? Before to send it to service center I wish to try your ideas. Until then I must keep the battery out of the phone. Thank you for any help

Well everything I can say is reinstall stock system or less using
I already did this. ........no effect of course
I have A G935FD and when I first bought it. it was a bit laggy but much less than now. The battery lasted like 6h sot (8 months ago, fast charged it only once and it mostly started happening after that, also kept it next to a fan while doing that it's next to a fan while charging all the time since I already have one on my desk anyway).
When I'm outside even when I'm not doing anything special (Just talking to a friend on discord, Checking Instagram, reading an article on Google chrome) it gets very very very hot! it happens more in my grand mother's house for some reason. even though it still has full antenna there!
The battery life now is like 3.5H 3H 4H!
I'm currently downloading the Indonesia Firmware! maybe re flashing it with ODIN will help. mine was actually another but I guess since it was released later it's a bit better?!
can anyone help me?! any suggestions c:
Display drained 16%
Android System drained 12%
Idle is 9%
cell standby is 7%
android os is 7%
chrome 5%
Googleplay services 3%
instagram 3%
AnyConnect 3%
Disocr and wifi 1%
and that's most of them

Maybe I should try a custom rom? I rather use stock android but whatever you suggest! I rather only do it if necessary since it still has warranty and stuff!
First go into recovery mode , do a wipe cache and factory reset , if that doesnt solve the issue , flash the original stock firmware through odin , i would not recommend flashing a custom rom as your phone is under warranty. If after flashing , problems still persist , then for the lagness and heating i can't say , it may be a hardware problem , but for the battery you can do a calibration , turn off fast charging , and never use it , first your battery should be at 3% or 4% , enter this code in dailer *#0228# , when you enter this you will see a info page but dont touch or tap anything especially that quickstart option ... dont try to touch that. just press back button and exit the menu, now drain your battery till phone doesnt turn on , then go in download mode , and let the phone be in download mode till it is dead again , now the battery is completely drained , now put the phone on charge and dont touch it until it is 100% and green light shows, it should improve battery , but if that doesnt improve anything and lagness/heat is still there , then you should go to samsung service centre and claim warranty if anything is faulty, btw my current SOT time is 6 to 7 hours , i dont experience heatness issue in normal use , and there is not that much of lagness that would annoy me. Good luck to you.

Draining my battery to 0 sounds scary since i know li-ion batteries but I guess I'll give it a try. I don't think the warranty will be useful but I'll try anyway c: Thanks a lot! <3
I'll update this further in case anyone's wondering but I flashed the newest firmware with odin and didn't use the Home_csc. But I want to say already everything feels smoother. But battery will take a bit to judge. It's still at 80% but I removed it from my fake wireless charger and moved it to wired (not fast though) to speed up things and let it cool down slightly (I should add a manual fan to it ) and i'll update here c:
Thanks for yourhelp!
Always do a factory reset and wipe cache after flashing a new firmware , also dont use fake chargers as they may also cause these heating ptoblems , well i also suffer heating issue when using tethering while charging , have you tried using any temp monitoring software to know how hot it gets ?

32 degree while wireless cahging while using the phone it gets up to 37 and 38
the odin re flash did help a little. but my battery life is 4H sot. Didn't heat up much though.

Wow bro your phone is even cool than mine :laugh:
Anyways do a battery calibration as i posted earlier , doing this one time in a month won't harm your battery lifespan
Without calibration it actually got 5-5:30 battery life to absolute 0%. recalibration actually made it a bit worse but I guess I'm ok with that! it's not as bad as 3-4h now and I can use it without having to recharge it in middle of the day.
and also life advice:
if you disable fast charging it gets MUUUCH cooler my case (fake samsung charger that supports it, wireless ofc) and put a small 80mm pc fan next to it and I bet you it won't go higher than 27 degrees on any condition
disable fast charging
