[Q] What's keeping my phone awake? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

As you can see from my screen shot, as I was asleep and my phone was locked, my battery dropped about 50%. I was asleep for 8 hours ish.
I have tried calibrating my battery.
What's constantly keeping my phone awake? I use the gmail app for mail and only have one account. Only other thing I can think of is fb or twitter??
Help!!

There has to be other apps you have installed

Install Betterbatterystats from the market.. its about $3 it will show you in depth was is causing your issue.. could be a wavelock..

I have installed BetterBatteryStats, should I use my phone as normal and post its findings tomorrow?
What am I looking for? Something showing up under Partial Wavelocks or Kernel Wavelocks? Or Both?

I also installed Titanium Backup and I froze a bunch of the apps from the list on this forum. (This was as of 2 hours ago, because this battery drain is ridiculous)
I installed SetCPU also, and have it set to 192mhz max&min when the screen is off. (This was as of 2 hours ago, because this battery drain is ridiculous)
I am willing to try different ROM's or Kernels (Whats the difference?), do you happen to know which is the best for Battery life?

raheelanwar89 said:
Okay, I will install that app, does it show each process and how much battery its using?
What is a wavelock? Can I fix whatevers causing a wavelock?

Yes.. it will show you processes and battery consumption.. great app..
It will inform you of a partial wavelock and then need to find the app or apps and shut them down, freeze them.. etc..
If you are rooted. reboot in recovery and erase battery stats then calibrate.. run to 100% ( make sure it says 100%..then run it down till it dies ..then charge again 100%.. reboot and have fun..

I use DaG's 0.3 kernel only stable one... very nice.. I am on the stock rom.and get 24-28+ hours battery life on mine.
I have mine set at 54 min/max with screen off.. and overclock to 1782 with no issues.
Rom is a entire tweak of your operating system.. .. a kernel is for overclocking the cpu and some other cool things.. easier to flash then Rom's.
There are many rom's here to chose from.. take your pick
Also use " Cpu spy" to see if your phone is "sleeping" and can see the freq used by the cpu in different states..

If you are rooted. reboot in recovery and erase battery stats then calibrate.. run to 100% ( make sure it says 100%..then run it down till it dies ..then charge again 100%.. reboot and have fun..

I booted into recovery mode but I only have 3 options:
1) Wipe Data/Factory Reset (I did this a few days after I got my phone)
2) Install from SD Card
3) Something else
I didnt see anything about recalibrate battery.
Did I misread your post?
Are you wanting me to Charge my phone while its off to 100% then drain it to 0% and then back up to 100% and THEN install BetterBatteryStats?

When you reboot in recovery.. will have a list of options to pick. go to advanced press that and go down to "wipe battery stats".. and perform that task
You can charge the phone off or on.. yes..go to 100% charge then to 0 and do it again then reboot phone.. you can install "betterbatterystats" anytime my friend
There will be no "calibrate battery" in the list.... FYI

Okay, thanks for clearing that up.
Are you on the stock rom with just DaG's Kernel?
I'm thinking of using a custom ROM, have you tested any of the ones?
Im thinking of TPC v3

No problem
Yes stock Rom with DaG 's kernel. 0.3 version.
I have not tried any of the roms I get the performance and battery life out of my stock rom .. it works for me..
Tpc v3 is good.. stable.. Flash one and see if you like it.

It appears that Wifi being On is not letting my phone go into deep sleep.
BetterBatteryStats had a service under Kernel Wakelock that was wlan_wake or something like that and it was running continuously as long as the phone was powered on (screen on and off)

This might be really stupid, but how do I install a script once I flash my SGS2 SR to TPC v3?

Nevermind, got it. Im currently running tcp v3 with DaG .3 oc'd to 1.728 ghz.
Hopefully I will see some better results with my battery haha

Does anyone have any info on what they do?
Basically they are what they say.
-Backgrounds gives you background pictures.
-Samsung widgets flashes the stock Samsung Widgets
-Stock MMS/SMS gives you the stock Epic icons for MMS/SMS (because Schizo has modified the ones in his rom)
-Modified MMS/SMS is similar to stock icons but slight different
-The second modified MMS/SMS gives you the same icons is the international i9000 Galaxy S
-TouchWiz lock screen gives the default Epic lock screen for those have a different one and want to go back
-Live Wallpapers gives you the live wallpapers that came stock on the phone
-Vanilla lock screen gives you the original AOSP lock screen
-Launcher reinstalls the vanilla Android launcher to the phone
-ThinkOffice adds ThinkOffice back to the phone
Yup. They are what they say. Always remember to back up before flashing w/ CWM. Occasionally you will run into instability issues when flashing mods/addons. After I flashed vanilla lockscreen and then back to touchwiz lock, I had some instability issues with the phone. Had to restore to my backup that I just made.

Yes I have learn to make backups before any major changes and have had to use them. Right now my phone is just turning itself off when I am using phoeix kernel .49 and the latest EE. I know it must be EE, because I restore and still run Phoenix .49 with 2.1 w/o any issues.

I'd recommend wiping everything three times at least (factory, cache, and davlik) before flashing something new. I know it seems excessive, but when I had the EVO there were reported issues with Clockwork not wiping properly and causing issues for some. I've recommened the three wipes to several on the Epic forums who were having issues and theyve noted that this helped fix their problems. Just saying.

Your issues may be linked to the interactive governor that .49 uses. I was having issues but changed the governor to conservative with setcpu and have had zero problems since.

Ok still having the same issue. I went back to stock phone and reflashed EE and Phoenix kernel. It was going well until the phone decided to turn itself off and would not come back on without a battery pull.
Can anyone give me an idea of what may be wrong or what I could try?

I had a similar issue and did the 3x wipe of everything. I also stopped using profiles in setcpu and have it set to interactive. So far I am getting killer battery life and no freezes yet. Prior to the wipe I tried 3 or 4 different versions of kernels and was having the same freeze about once a day. I'm using Phoenix 1.49 and EE 1.2.4.

I know the wipe is in clockwork, but what exactly did you wipe or I should say what did you choose to wipe in clockwork?
How long have you been running it without freezing?
Well so far I did 3 wipes of everything and reinstalled and no freezes yet. Does anyone think that the wi fi tether program could be causing my phone to freeze up and turn off? I have not installed it yet and all is well so far.

The Factory, cache and davlik. Prior to doing that I only did a single wipe. This time I followed the instructions according to the emotionless beast theme. I've only had it running for 20 hours, but no freeze up yet and the battery life is much better. My phone is at 74% with very light use during 9 hours. I had about 15 min of phone calls and a short time playing angry birds the rest was standby. I am running Juice Defender, but before I could never get this much life out of my battery. Normally I would be around 50-60% with just standby in 9 hours.
Oh yeah. Im running setcpu at interactive, no profiles and disable the drm process after boot.

[Q] Massive Battery drain

Hello,
I've got a huge problem with my battery. I use the Android Revolution HD 3.6.11 with OC Daemon 1,5 GHZ. I've also installed the recommend radio and wiped my battery stats. CurrentWidget tells me that the average battery usage is about 53 mAh without Wi-Fi and 559 mAh with Wi-Fi. Also, the app "Wheres my Droid Power" tells me that 17,07 percent go to HTC Sense.
Do you have any tips how to fix this battery wasting ?
Thanks in Advance
Unlocer
I have the same problem, only the most usage of the battery is going to the Display and I don't know why. if someone could explain will be very helpfull.
I use the same rom and all.
my mobile HTC Sensation XE
Thanks
i have the same problem even though i'm still on 3.6.8 but i'm gonna flash 3/6/11 today
The best things I have found for battery drain is to make sure you do a full superwipe before every ROM flash, Lower the brightness of the screen (change from auto), disable tactile feedback, turn off BT, Wifi, GPS etc. when not in use (Tasker is very good), Also perhaps change your radio, if it's not for your area it could be sucking a lot of battery.
Hope this helps, but like i said this is what works for me, I also noticed that MIUI has great battery life and even now that im on ICS its great, Also just buy a bigger battery, I currently have 2 x 2450mAh, one in my cradle and one in the phone.
i have the battery drain problem alsao. i test with many different roms ,and Before install any rom, i always did wipe data/factory reset- cache- davik cache. Then format system. But it can't solve the problem. I monitor the battery with current widget app, and its log always show my battery drain from 60 mah to >200 mah (every 5 mins) when my phone in sleep mode (with : no auto-sync, wifi off, even data off, no gps, facebook, mail...is sync every 4 hours)...The lowest result i got is 9mah but it's not stable. I just don't know what is happening with my phone. Sorry for my english.
flash the bricked kernal thats the biggest battery saver tip.
What Radio Are You Running
I am having a problem and it started after I did the firmware flash upgrade and I was curious what radio you are running as stock. I am in Phx, az

I would download and flash the superwipe script before flashing any ROM rather than doing that stuff manually. Some users have reported that when they flashed the ROM again it sorted it out.
Deleting htc peep account in synchronization & accounts has also been reported to work in some cases.

1. i did flash super-wipe.zip before installed roms too.
2. i don't have HTC peep under synchronization, and never log in to HTC account

FYI, i am currently running OneICS 1.04 senseles rom. After i installed this rom, i fully charged my phone . 19 hours later with very minimal usage, my phone have 30% left.(screen up time is about 2 hour only).

What firmware do you refer to.
Sent from HTC Sensation, Elegancia ROM Series....
I also used Super Wipe before installing the ROM. And I never activated a HTC Sense account, aswell.
I tried the Energy ROM now and I have to say, the battery life is much better than in Android Revolution.
Had the same problem myself, that's why I switched to MIUI.

[Q] Flashing, roms, radio, etc?

I Rooted my Phone some time ago, i have installed some roms, some run good, some freezes my phone up, have remove my battery.
so what I need more info on, is should i do like I read about the Radio?, Kernel?, and then ROM?
What I show,
Kernel Version
2.6.35.14-RCMIX3D-V12-CRD-gec898d5-dirty
Baseband Ver: ( Radio)
12.29.60.19U_26.06.04.06_M
ROM
RunnyDroid v3.0
I have StraightTALK Sims, all DATA, SMS all working,
My Battery dose not last so long, 3 to 4 hrs, mostly not in use.
I seen a lot of post talking about this rom, and that rom works the best. or the battery last for 7+ hours.
My phone is not running a lot of apps, I even uninstalled my Anti-Virus.
I have to keep my phone on the Charger a lot. I even bought a New battery and same thing.
Thanks
Have you tried recalibrating the battery? Also, how much "screen -on" time during your 3-4 hours use?
Sent from a payphone!
Sorry, just noticed you said mostly not in use.
There's a apps you can download from the market- Battery Recalibration and Current Widget...with these 2 tools and a little knowledge of what running app/services are doing, you can track what's going on.
Or, you could just simply have a bad battery or a gooned-up flash (it happens).
Hope this helps.

On the contrary, battery calibration has been proved to be nothing more then just a peace of mind type of procedure and really not a huge benefit. My advice would be to get Current Widget and fully charge your phone. Unplug it and let it sleep for about 6-8 hours with current widget logging the mA drain (the log is an option in the app itself, you just need to enable it). After the 6-8 hours ( I normally do this when I sleep so I know the phone is not in use) check the log and see if there is any weird mA drain. weird would look something like
1ma
3ma
180ma
230ma
1ma
2ma
Normal would be:
1ma
1ma
4ma
5ma
1ma
You get the picture hopefully haha. If you have weird drain then best bet would be to full wipe and reinstall the rom and individually install your apps one at a time and monitoring the mA usage to see what apps cause the drain and what doesn't. You can also try new radios with their matching RILs and see if that helps. There are also apps like Juice Defender and Green Power that have been said to improve battery life up to 2x. Hope that helps.
I have tested apps, done the ( Let the battery die, and then charge wait off to give a more of it charge.

let your phone die and then recharging it fully does nothing for abnormal battery drain. So in that regard the only thing you proved to yourself was that your phone can charge properly. Are you 100% sure you are running the proper radio for the ROM or have the matching RIL for your radio? I still think its an app running in the background that is causing your problem. Are you sure that you full wiped and reinstalled the rom. Then with each app you want, install one. wait for 30 minutes and allow current widget to log the mA activity. Check the log to be sure there are no crazy spikes in mA and proceed to the next app repeating the same process. I know its annoying but that's the only way to be sure that your apps aren't causing the drain.
Also consider turning off sync, which I've heard can be a battery drainer. Turn off wifi as well when need in range since the scanning for wifi causes battery drain as well.
I really don't know, when I first got the phone, I Rooted it and unlocked it.
I Do have straight talk Sim I have been using.
all I did was change the ROM( I Think).
with all the little problems I'm having, I was think I have a lot wrong with it!
So I was going to download a need ROM, I seen talk about Radios, or RIL, and ROMS.
so No I don't know If I have everthing right.
I wasl looking atRCMixHD 4G V3.4 ROM, and if I used it, what Radio and RIL would I need.
having Stright Talk Service, witch runs on ATT, with difference APN settings.
what Would I need?
Thanks. Terrell
Usually, the ROM has all the correct radios, RILs, kernels etc inside the ROM itself and you would only need to change if you had some need for a different radio, like if you got poor service where you live. Kernels are dictated by the ROM.

On a different note.
All I can say is wow. 2,000,000 Roms and I still not know LOL. Thanks for all the info so far.
When you install a custom ROM it will include ROM, a certain RIL, and the kernel that the DEV has used with the ROM all in one package. The DEV will USUALLY let you know what the recommended radio should be to match the included RIL. You could flash it before or after you flash the ROM.
If you are having battery issues I would first start with a new battery. If you have already done that then flash a simple ROM for testing purposes. Stay away from highly tweaked and modified ROMs with a kernel set up for overclocking. I recommend juicy ROM from my sig. Install the 2.52 (R2) version which is still sense 2.5 and gingerbread 2.3.3. The ROM is flawless and you will get the best battery life than from anyother ROM. SEE how your battery lasts with it.
If you have your brightness set high, have many apps running in the background, are in an area where your signal is poor and is constantly lost, are syncing many accounts constantly, and you can't seem to put your phone down, then your battery will not last that long.

Its bootlooping (not good) ...I would suggest to boot back into recovery and wipe and check your md5 sum & reflash or redownload file if needed.

bootlooping isn't the end of the world. It only becomes an issue if you can't boot into HBOOT. You can boot into HBOOT by turning off the device and then holding the volume up and power button at the same time. You will then boot into HBOOT. From here your device will scan for a "PD98IMG.zip". I'm guessing since you don't know how to get into HBOOT then you've probably haven't flashed a radio so you shouldn't have a stray PD98IMG.zip on your sdcard. After it scans and doesn't find a a PD98IMG.zip you will be given a few options. One of which will be to boot into recovery. Do that. From there you can check the md5 (if you're using EXT4 recovery). If you want you can re-download another ROM and from recovery you can mount your SDcard so you can put the new ROM on your sdcard and flash per usual.

[Q] Battery life - what mA value is normal?

Hello everyone,
I have looked around the forum and it seems like most of you guys with Sensation + 3.12 or 3.24 or 3.30 firmware and ICS Roms have good or great battery lives.
This is not the case for me unforunately with Sensation XE. battery drain is so crazy that if i go to sleep with 100% charged - the battery is dead when i wake up (in a metter of 8-10 hours) while the phone is not used at all, wi-fi and mobile network off.
I have tried
- full-wipe
- reflash
- calibration
- discharging to 0% and recahrging - couple cysles
- waiting 4-5 days until the ROM settles down
- removing microSD
- canging batteried (i have anker and stock htc both in good health)
- i am not overclocking
but still the battery drain is very bad.
I am now using Battery Monitoring widget but i cannot find what app or process is causing the problem.
Here are my questions
1) What is the normal mA value (displayed on battery monitor widget)?
what are your lowest and highest values? for me lowest is about 65mA and highest over 700mA. Is it to much? Those of you guys with nice battery drain - could you please install Battery Monitor Widget and let me know you values?
2) How can I find the app (if its an app) that takes the juice? I tried to see stats in battery monitor widget - but all I can see is some k.workers
I even tried to full-wipe and not to install any apps. Currently i have GoLauncher, GoSMS and Battery Monitor Widget, PlayerPro and Android Pro Widgets.
3 ) here is my battery history. Does it look normal?
Code:
2012/02/27|15:15:36|-553mA|100%|4026mV|25.4oC|1|0
2012/02/27|15:16:08|-553mA|100%|4026mV|25.4oC|1|0
2012/02/27|15:17:32|-581mA|100%|4008mV|25.5oC|1|0

It seems high but not outrageous. You gave about 70-100mAh when not in use which is about what I had with factory rom. I assume all the usual things are done like GPS off, brightness low, wifi on etc.
Do you have poor signal, and are you using mobile data a lot? That increases battery usage.
To assess more fully the processes running I use system tuner pro. This allows you to see user, system & kernel processes and sort by memory, CPU time etc.
I currently see around 30-60mAh when idling.

Hello,
thanks for reply.
My Signal is good (full-bars) Mobile Data is off, WIFI, GPS are off as well
and brightness low... but actually the screen is off when i am sleeping...
I understand smartphones use power, especially on mobile-data and WiFi, but I hate that feeling when I wake up and see my phone's battery dead....
never got as low as 30mAh even when completely not in use with everything off.
I will try to use System Tuner Pro - maybe will find out somethinh.
OK post back results perhaps I can help more.
I'm looking at STP now, using task manager I can see my top processes in terms of CPU time are:
STP
android system
Xda premium
Android keyboard
/system/bin/surfaceflinger
Gmail
System UI
do nothing untoward, I would expect those to be running given my usage right now.
Use STP to record a period when you sleep, you can then do this process check to see what's running.

My battery is pretty much the same and I'm on a fresh ics install. This device seems to just suck a lot of battery. The screen especially.

Hmmm my sensation XE used to have at least 1.5 times as much power (when used) and 2 to 3 times as much power when not used befor upgrading to 3.12, 3.24 and 3.30.
I know what you will tell - go back to Gingerbread.
I am actually considering this. but many people say with ICS their battery is better then ever before.
Is it ICS who sucks the power then?
Thanks
From your stats you are losing 1% in 5 minutes in standby, my sensation (with virtuous inquisition ROM) uses less than 1% per hour - that's with a good 4G connection in standby. My 1900mAh battery lasts over 24hrs with up to 6hrs screen on during that time.
To eliminate hardware flash a fresh ROM and firmware, boot a couple of times (don't install any apps) then remove the SD card and put the phone in airplane mode and leave it overnight on standby. If you're losing more than 1% per hour, then your phone may be faulty. If not then you'll need to try things one by one, turn airplane mode off, insert SD, then apps until you find the problem.
Looking at the instant mAh figures won't help you a lot, the battery driver for the sensation is useless and BMW has to estimate the figure.
Thanks for advice.
Could you please let me know the firware you are using?
3.12, 3.24 or 3.30 ?

3.12. I had the 3.24 ready to load when VI 3.5 was released but everything worked fine on 3.12 so I left well alone.
Ok here is what happened
1) i falshed new 3.30 RUU and ROM with fullwipe etc
2) booted the rom put it to settle fo 30 mins
3) rebooted 3 times
4) then charged to 100%, and switched airplane mode ON
with Airplane Mode on - I have lost 25% of battery during 3 hours without touching the phone. That makes 12 hours without using the phone at all.
I am starting wondering if it is not the firware that is causing the problems... Maybe i should go back to 3.12 or even earlier.
Anyone can please point me to some firmware earlier to 3.12?
I do not think it is a faulty phone, because I have 2 phones and both have same problem. and both started having this problem after upgrading to ICS...
let me know you thoughts and please a link to an earlier firmware (earlier than 3.12)
battery drain
i would say you have normal operation .
mine is between 50-100 MA and yet when not using it during night in the morning i am still at 100%......
when keeping it for a whole day not using it i am droping from 100% to 87% for about 24 hours idle use ....
so i would say check your battery when it starts or is it from the day you got your device .....
Thanks for reply, oferyama
Normal operation ??
You lose 23% in 24 hours while
me - I lose 1% every 5 minutes = teh phone is dead after 10 hours of idling.....
Probalby mAh reported vaules is incorrect, and the important thing is how many % you lose per hour
Did you flash a custom kernel at all?
What rom is this problem occurring with?
Sent from my Pyramid-T
I have tried many ICS ROMS - Elegancia ICS, AnroidMe ICS, LeeDroid ICS = same problem. i also tried 3.12, 3.24 and 3.30 firmwares
but I cannot remember if the problem started when i upgraded to 3.12 or 3.24.....
From today I have 3.30 jsut for testing... and if everything fails - planning to go back to Gingerbread to see if it helps...
Hi umka, I had same problem as you. Try this to figure out what's eating your battery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809
I'm using VI 3.5.1 beta and battery drain varies from 30 to 82mA while not touching a phone at all on stock XE battery. While i'm typing this, I have 78% battery, phone is unplugged for 10h and 6 minutes. I'm using SebastianFM kernel 1.11 (this one: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/64017594/HTC Sensation/Overclocked_kernel_v1.11_1512_MHz_by_SebastianFM.zip) on my Sensation XE. Radio is stock for FW 3.30. Adequate RIL of course. Lots of apps installed, many of them are disabled from autostarting. I'm using Shnizlon's theme (just aosp bar).
Desktop: minimalistic text with weather info, updating every 3 hours.
Hope this brief info will help you to figure something out.
Good luck!
Thanks for reply - trying this right now....
Amon87, could you please let me know what was eating batery in your case?? I have just flashed a new ROM and did not isntall any applications at all... Where shoud I look at?
I was suspecting the radio, but i tried different ones... and i tried airplane mode - but even in airplane mode when radio shoud not make any difference the battery drain is terrible..
i will post you on the results

So no kernels flashed desperately to rom?
Did you have any results from STP finding the battery killer? Do you restore app/data after each flash e.g. with TiBu?
Sent from my Pyramid-T
Sorry to say, but i just don't remember the name of that app. For sure, main problem for me was radio and unmatching RIL.
I recommend you to try different kernel and change governor. I'm using system tuner pro to change this. When screen on: ondemand 192-1.51. Screen off: interactive 192-648MHz. But try powersave.
Another clue. Maybe somehow second core is constantly turned on?
What recovery are you using to flash roms, kernels etc? For me it's newest 4ext recovery test build.

1) In most case I used default kernels provided with the ROM (somtimes flashed custom ones)
2) I am not good yet at looking at STP and BMW stats - so amybe I am missing something, but so far I did not find the battery killer. How do you find the battery killer? a process using more than 10%-20% CPU or smth like that?
3) I used to restore the apps using Titanium Backup, but then, to find out the problem, i just flashed a fresh ROM and did not install any apps at all..
and still losing at least 10% per hour with DATA off, Mobile Network OFF, GPS and WIFI off and Airplan Mode ON.

- Well right now I do not have any apps installed yet, excpet those that come default with 3.30. So its definetely not an application.
- !!! Myabe it is indeed unmatching RIL adn RADIO - coudl you please give me more info on that? How do I find out what is matching. I am in Japan and i bought my phone in HongKong (so it shoould be asia) and default ROM was doing just fine... Could you please point me to correct RIL and Radio - or advice where to look?
- From what i have seen in STP yesturday - second core is off. not sure about now - cause i do not have STP installed after flashing stok 3.30
- I am using ext4 recovery latest.

Reboots and Battery %

Hello everyone posted this thread up so that I can get to the bottom of the random reboots and strange battery % eny feed back would be great thanks
I have been on viper Rom for a few months now. its been a great rom until I changed the Kernal in the tweaks it just hasn't been the same . random reboots and battery % has been all over the place jumping from 80% to 10% after reboot. I have kept to all the default settings in the aroma installer no uv and no oc. the phone works no problems when on the charger witch makes me think its a battery issue. I have tried cleaning the battery grounding pins and placing a bit of card at the top of the battery with no success I am at a loss here. feed back would be great thanks for your time

Hi,
Why not restore your nandroid backup?
Put the phone back to where it was before you had the problems.

Hi,
Well , you won't do that again...
Reflash the ROM.
Choose the settings with the original kernel.
The rest of your data and settings should remain intact.

You best believe I won't hahaha.
I have reflashed the Rom a few times with default kernel still no luck thanks for your time with this its much appreciated.
I have seen a few posts about cpu screen off in the tweaks do you no anything about this bit of a noob when it comes to setting values and what they do

I think it was anthrax or pyd am not sure. The kernel at the moment is bricked I can use the phone when on the charger as soon
As I disconnect it 5 mins or so it will reboot with a different battery % .
Its so frustrating honestly ready for throwing the phone off the wall to see if that helps

Hahaha. Thanks for the link on the download as we speak I will keep to the default setting in aroma and let u no how things go.
Again thanks for your time.
Just flashed kernel kept to all the default values. When the phone reboots it had 100% I was on the phone for about 5 mins on the internet to check these posts then it reboots again aaarrrrgggg the battery now shows 75%. The reboots seem to happen when on internet. Youtube. Facebook. Am going nuts here lol . Thanks anyway for that.

Hi,
OK
You should think about saving all your data, wiping the phone clean, and start again from scratch with the good kernel.
If that fails, then, you should look for a new battery.

My GF and I have the same phone, and hers has the bone stock ROM from TMO/HTC, and she's been getting a lot of strange reboot/battery drain cycles going on lately. I've got an older ARHD ICS ROM, and I've had no trouble at all with it.
Her phone went from 50% to 8% after a reboot last night, and after about 10 hours on the charger, it's only showing about 75%. If she has any more issues, than I'm going to put the latest ARHD ROM on it and call it good.

Hi can someone out there maybe a dev help out with this problem there is a few posts out there with people
With the same problem. I had alogcat but it dumps the cache when reboots am going round in circles here.
Help help help cheers guys.

Only new battery I had same problems, a new battery solved it.
Have the same problem. Is this a Rom/Kernel bug or do I need to buy a new battery?
