Battery drain and phone's like heating up... - HTC Sensation

Gud day guys, im having these trouble with sensation xe... it's been 1 week since i bought this fone. i was just observing it maybe becoz it was just new at all, the charging must not hav been quiet burn-in or even the fone, and thers 1 instance while i was charging it(i usually turn it off while charging) the moment it was full i booted it it was normal for like 5 minutes, after it it restarted.. id dunno wat happend.. the next time i charged it again full... it did not restart but it shut down.. and wen i noticed it that it'd shut down wen i hold the fone it was like heating up badly... i dunno why..
iv been searching tips ad tricks to minimize battry consumption, it was all done, i peven prefferd my network to gsm only so that 3g signal wont drain much of my juice but... wen i pop wifi,gps, sync, little cam activity and vid recording.. man! fons like heating up bad.. is thers sumtin wrong with the batt? i hv no problem with it's UI and evrythin.. it's just this battery.. maybe 1760 mAh bat is not compatible with sensations series... i dunno...

xda II battery goes down in 2 hours time :S

can any one temme wats goin wrong .......this neva happened before wen i got the sealed pack xda II ......after i upgraded to wm2003 se, my batt just keeeps goin low in as much as 2 or 3 hours stand by time......n the best part is the backup battery doesnt work where as twice in windows mobile 2003 (Default Version With Xda II) i used the backup battery n pda wudnt go off.....but now it just keeps goin off as soon as the batt is out..... ne recommendations ?
thanks in advnc.....
don't know if it's related but I'm also experiencing battery drainage :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=15121
Same here, I noticed today that my MDA was kinda warm at the back. When I tried to turn it on, it did a hard reset and when I checked the battery was at 10 %. I didn't use Bluetooth. Maybe a virus going around in PPC land ?
Also I had the battery out just the day before, cause I swapped my sim which I normally never do. I wonder if this could have something to do with it ?
The device does soft reset after flipping the red backup battery switch. I guess this is normal ?
if batt's go warm i'd say that it's hardware issue maybe the batt is die'ing or something virus are still very rare on ppc's and i would be very supprised if they could cause such a thing
changing the batt would if all goes well softreset if all does not go well hardreset
sooner or later li'ion batt's die first the start to have a shorter power span
and shorter and shorter.....
batts like all other eletronics have a MTTF (mean time to fail)
this is a statictial nr. which mean that thats the time most of them survive
some die long before some last longer
if the majority dont last as long as the MTTF there is something wrong with the manufactoring batch or the way the device is using the batt
also the batt % show programs (i would asume )also use statictis to show how long the batt will last so if the device is left alone it will start to think it would last longer then if you are playing a game for 12 hours in a row
since using a device of cause use tons more power then a turned off device only handling gsm stuff
and if the gsm signal often weaken more power is using searching for a new source

tx 2.03 rom - 25% battery and no phone function

hi all,
i upgraded my magician to 2.03tx rom and now noticed that if my battery down to 25%, then i lost my phone function (receiving, making calls, send, receive sms, signal down, etc2)
im not 100% sure if i had this issue with 1.13rom, but anyone else having the same problem ? thanks alot
hi, i originally had the same problem, but mine was due to the old battery in my jam slowly dieing on me.. i bought a new battery and the problem went away..
I have this problem too when batery have about 75% when I want call phone turn off... I will try new battery...
i also have this problem. Mine turns off when i try to make a phone call under 24/20% battery. Guess i´ll have to buy a new one. However, i´m thinking about a Hard Reset once this battery is just 2 years old.
I have the same problem with WWE1.13 and 2.03tx roms (at 30% and 70% too). I'm waiting the new battery...
i have the same prblm mine dies at around 50% to 55%
reply
pls trying rom same this 2.01tx
Buy new battery.
I can confirm that with a new battery the problem disappears
Ziki is very right. I also had the same prob. Buying a new batter is the only and applied solution ...........

Vibrant Battery Question.?

Hey whats up.. im new to the ROM modding.. i just put nero V3 on my phone and i read somewhere some a mod for the battery i dont know if was a app but he got crazy battery life out of his vibrant.. and im looking to do the same..
any suggestions.?
are you talking about calibrating ur battery? if so, go into clockwork and under advanced settings wipe ur battery stats...do this when u have full battery..use ur phone until it dies (literally dies, meaning shuts off on its own)...charge it fully, use it and let it die again..it helps ur phone understand the limits of the battery 0-100%
i flashed nero v4.1 a couple of days ago..followed this method...got 17 hrs out of it during my test runs...had wifi on the entire time, played some games, texted regularly and made a few calls...pretty impressive battery life for a smartphone running android

[Q] Battery drain on Galaxy 3 when on voice call & other battery problems

hello,
i have I5801 galaxy 3..
currently on kies Froyo firmware..
from since flashing to froyo ..
1) whenever i talk on phone (ie do voice call) battery drains out in even less then a hour when fully charged..
2) when kept for charging.. even if battery shows like 10% remaining .. within like a min or two.. battery indicator shows an 100% charged status.
and it drains out in like 10 mins if removed from charging
what i think is somehow froyo is assuming it's charged and is stopping the charging process.
i've rooted it, and tried calibration.. still no luck.. I've deleted batterystats.bin regularly, still a new file is created and no change in battery condition is seen
plz help.. too much frustrated
PS: i am not a pro.. so help plz

don't delete batterystats.bin do some full charge discharge then report.
tried that.. still no change
battery drained off in 30-40 mins..
does ATK make battery drain? somewhere along on some phone someone said that draining battery to nil and charging back cycle makes battery life even shorter.. dunno what to do..

Calibrate your battery after doing a full charge. And use as "normal" for few normal cycles, just like you usually did.

Hi
Try using light version of g3mod kernel instead of oc based.
You can flash your phone with my Rom and test after full battery charge. note some apps are battery drainer like tweetcaster etc due to continuous sync.
Try to stop those services and test your phone thereafter..it will show improvement. .and dont delete any battery calibration seetting once done after you flash thats all.
Do let me know if it not happens.
Cheers.

i flashed g3mod-2.0-nonoc
still when i try to put it to charge..
say currently it shows like 40% charge.. but as soon as i put it on charging (via AC) .. it shoots up directly to 90-100 in two minutes.... this should be wrong, right?
darin rate is also bad
it showed 100% charged and a 3 min call .. made battery level goto 45%

Ok try this .. convert all partition to rfs & flash any stock ROM with stock kernel.. Use Ur phone like that 2-3days.. See if any improvement..

err STOCK kernel means official right?
also how to convert parition to rfs.. is this about partitioning SDcard? coz if it is i've tried using without any card insert .. still same
i was thinking about G3mod 2.0 Beta2 kernel .. heard it uses very less battery..
but i've got a question ( and i can't ask in development forum as per post limitation) that does the 2.0 Beta2 uses less battery than the official samsung jp6 kernel? or should i try flashing that?
(now i may look like stupid asking these question)
first of all, sorry for bumping this after a month..
actually G3 wasnt with me from then, now it's back and problem persists
what i notice is that
1) phone when put to charge, shoots up to 100% in 5-10 mins, even when off
2) and same with the drain, it goes to 1% in 5-10mins
i checked out with battery, and it is fine they(samsung service center) say,..
plz help, i am at question as to what is the reason for this sudden rise and fall of battery level.
if u got a costum rom use battery calibration from the market its free it fix the drains happend whit me to

nope... i had used it before but now i am currently on I5801DDJP6 updated from 2.1 eclair via kies
its stock,unrooted, no modifications..
i'd calibrate battery, but the fact that it shoots up t0 100% in 10 mins
and what i guess is when phone detects 100% battery, it pretty much stops charging after that, thus battery starves ..
can something be done so that it actually gets accurate reading on battery status ?
Switch off your cell...let it full charge....
Then switch on the device and flash the cyanogen mod...
Its fast,stable and also increases the battery power...
had the exact same problem...did that and now works for almost two days...

It may be possible that your battery may have gone bad and you need to replace it

cyanogenMod site doesnt show Galaxy 3 support...
btw u are saying ROM or kernel?? coz i like stock ROM of samsung as it's easy to use
@bscraze i contacted service center.. they say battery's good and doesn't need replacement...
hey i discharged until phone switched itself off couple of times
and charged it back to 100% while phone was off and then again when ON..
then, i increased brightness,turned on wifi,bluetooh,gps,etc and it dropped to 90% ..
as it is stock rom i think it was between 90-100% (coz with 1% mod)
but as soon as a call came, which was of 2:38 seconds, my phone battery dropped off to 3%
any guesses, why this is happening?

what i have been able to detect from last two days is,
that battery fall is severe only when on voice call,
i have been playing music,games without much battery drain
but a mere voice call with everything off (GPS,bluetooh,dataconntection) for not more than 10 mins, drains battery by 20-30%
any ideas about it's reason??

Check out which app uses more battery in battery - settings - usage. That particular process may use more battery than others.
I have a similar problem with my G3 - I'm running CM 6.2
While I checked the OS takes 76% of the battery. I found CM6.2 better in handling FC than 7.1..Or should i just go back to Cm 7.1??
Experts, please advice
Hello everyone. its long since i posted here and thats bcoz of only one reason .. battery problem with my phone. i really was getting pissed off by the issue that i stopped posting here .. cursing my bad old phone.. my battery was lasting near abt 6-10 hrs lately .. finally i decided to..
1. flash eclair (stock) JG6 which came along at the time of my purchase and had reasonable to good batt back up. flashed that and i was like 18-24hrs of batt backup. Used it for almost one week. and as i was surfing thru our threads.. saw some really encouraging post abt Kyrillos 9.3 and its battery backup. so..
2. I flashed kyrillos 9.3 for last 3 days .. and did the calibration on my very first charging after flashing 9.3.. yesterday got almost 36 hrs of batt backup .. right now m on 84%.. unplugged @ 8pm yesterday .. it 10:15am right now in india. so its around 14 hrs .. which i feel is quite good considering my past exp with my battery ..
I dont know what actually has done the trick or its illusion to me . but after flashing eclair my phone performance has gone up smartly.
Using 9.3 NON-OC. with a2sd enabled.
i hope it can help ppl abt our all confusing battery issue .. if not .. at least it can throw some light ...
Press the thanks button if u find it helpful. Hve a gr8 day.

Horrible Experience At MMX SC

Guys! We all know that MMX SC are pathetic and they make us pathetic in front of everyone...
My case has gone beyond limits...
As my phone touch had stopped working I gave it to MMC here in Hyd...
Today I got my cell phone from SC after 3 and a half months...
I will never ever buy MMX device ever again...
Fine bros, leave my pathetic story behind, and as you may know when we submit our phone in SC they give our battery back to us so it stays with us...
So my battery stayed idle for that period. And now it is behaving so weird that when it is at 100 it doesn't drop at all and after some time of use it drops suddenly to 50% at this moment phone restarts. after some time like half an our or so it will drop again to 20% and restarts. Again after some time it drops to 0% and doesn't switch on at all. after ten minutes it starts and shows 50%.
I know it is Batter calibration problem, so i request one of you who feels their battery performance is good to provide me the file "batterstats.bin"which you can pull out from "data\system\batterstats.bin ".
I tried battery calibration processes and non of them work and mysteriously my phone lost that file. So i feel it is the reason for my problem..
Thank you guys.

Just wipe Battery Cache from CWM....Itll rebuild the stats itself... Dont use another device's stats.... Its nothing but stats...Wont increase battery Power

I did wipe battery cache, and It didn't create battery stats file...
Using the stats file from the same brand is not gonna effect the rom in any way, can't understand the reason why i shouldn't with my experience...
When we talk about calibration its all about stats dude, nevertheless to say they are very important, that is the reason why they kept "batterstats.bin".
Even if we wipe, so that device creates new one, it takes few battery cycles to fill up the optimized stats, hope you understand, after using the provided batterystats.bin my device's stats are pretty stable..
So silly that you were raising the point of "raising the battery power", If you have read my post, you would have already found out that I was never expecting to raise battery power by just replacing the mere stats... It is all about calibration so it is all about stats...
Any way thanks for your inputs...
I have lost touch too . Will go to mmx svc on Thursday . I month warranty left . Second time my phone having problems . First time speaker problem. In call speaker . Now touch problem . Never mediatek chinese crap again ever . Back to my Nokia c7 and Samsung s3 .
