Profiles?? - HTC Sensation

Does profiles/governors really do much of a difference on battery life ?? I tried all of them : ondemand,powersave,performance... But haven't seen a difference and also same thing for kernels i flashed alot of them but never felt the difference ??

Me either.

What difference are you talking about?
Difference in power or difference in battery saving/consumption
If so yeah there is difference in these two parameters with different governers

It really depends on your usage pattern, doesn't it? If you're going to be using your phone with the screen on all of the time, then I really doubt changing the profile will be making that much of a difference to your battery life. In any case, it's very difficult to accurately and objectively determine the impact a profile or kernel will make on your battery life. For example, I use my phone differently each day, so it's really hard to tell. I can roughly gauge if a kernel can give me better battery life, but it's very hard to say for sure. There is a difference since all those profiles control the CPU differently, but whether you can see a significant difference or not is up to you.

Same here. Most of the time my phone survives for two or even more days without recharging (ondemand profile) but there are days when it drains battery like there is no tomorrow (no network, using it for navigation...) so I guess it boils down to your usage patterns and what you are expecting from device.

I've found the same. If I'm constantly online or am playing games then I'll chew through the battery in a few hours. But on the other hand I've found that the battery will last 24 hours plus if I'm travelling and just listening to mp3's

Im just the kind of guy who use his phone more for multimedia no data nothing else music screen off 70 texts a day thats it and all these above usually takes 1h screen on time yet i always get home whit 40% whit phone unplugged for 8 hours but..
Im not complaining weekends i use my phone differently yet i never see a difference..

Battery Life after installing GingerBread on Inspire

Anyone who has installed the Gingerbread rom on their Inspire, have you noticed any difference in battery life. This is supposedly the main benefit to the upgrade. I want to wipe the Bloat ware off my system, but not install a rom unless it makes a huge difference. Any info on this would be greatly appreciated...
I am running inspired ace which runs gingerbread and battery life is great.

+1 to inspired ace and much better battery life than stock.
Last time I went battery for awhile; See attached.
Granted 9 hours of that I was asleep as was the phone but the rest was me playing games, reading, downloading apps, browsing listening to music using stereo bluetooth.
Rom is in the Sig.
Gingerbeast does have awesome battery life. I reverted back to RCMix3D only cause I missed it, and I get about 10-18 hours out of my battery on that one.
+1 on the RCMix,, cant say its much longer,, but it is good for a 8 hr wrk day..
+1 for inspired ace rom - battery is great and so is the performance increase!

That is word for word what I do...
And it is amazing. I highly recommend this.
gingerbeast has been ridiculously awesome for me on battery life. with moderate to heavy use, i get 12-18 hours of use a day
I have used HoneySense and LeeDroid, I have found that LeeDroid's kernel MUCH better than both HoneySense and the stock when it comes to battery life. In the end, it all depends on what you want, when you want alot of bells and whistles on all the time, your battery life will suffer, if you are more minimalist, you battery life will be much better
So far I've been one of those 'bells and whistles' people, and even on VU1.27 which I assume is pretty efficient I only get 8-9hrs. Surprising the biggest user has been voice calls, which will suck the battery dry in 2-3hrs if you have a couple long conversations.

Battery Life test Results

I was pretty pleased with my results here, so I thought I'd share. This is done with both OC and UV and making use of the the 3500mah batt and with moderate/normal use.
I can get that on stock battery, you must play some games and leave your phone on full brightness at all times or something.

No, I play one game in particular, and I spend more time on the web on my phone than most people do on their computer. I could get that on a stock battery too, if I never actually used my phone Before the the changes I made, I was getting significantly less life. Especially with OC.
It looks like the moment you turn your screen on your battery life plummets.

Thats from Oc'ing to 1560 lol
It's more useful to post test results on a standard battery and standard voltages and clock speeds so others can compare. I've gotten 3 days on stock CM7 nightly before, it really depends on how much one uses their phone. The biggest clue to how a ROM or kernel affects battery is to look at the idle drain (maybe with data off too). It should be flat or with < 0.5%/hr drain.
Where'd you get the 3500 Mah battery you are using? I've been trying to find a decent maker for one.

Battery efficient ROM

Hi, going on a trip soon and need a ROM with good battery effiency. I'm now running InsertCoin Evolution 1.91 and the battery drains pretty quickly so I'm wondering: what's the best ROM regarding battery life time? Sensation XE btw.
Thanks
What kernel do you use?
Try bricked with badass belance, no GPU OC, if you want better battery life underclock to 1GHz it doesnt lag and got pretty decent battery life with it. Dont change screen off freq.
And i recommend you to undervolt, -50v is good, i use about -75 now and its pretty stable.
I used to get more than 20h with 1.56GHz max.
Edit: i use stock z710e battery which is 1520mAh

If you decrease the voltage needed for one freq, it means the cpu needs less power and it means more battery life

Well, it technically does, because less voltage means less current, both of those mean less power. (Literally, Current * Voltage = Power, fun fact). However, the increase in battery life is marginal at best, so it doesn't actually benefit.
Power ~ V^2 * f. Voltage has more effect than frequency, both have some effect.
Forget power equations, battery's are capacitors so lets use capacitor equations!
Rate of discharge is proportional to Q/R.
I=V/R so 1/R=I/V
Therefore rate of discharge is proportional to I/V. Ohms law states as one goes up so does the other.
So technically undervolting has no effect?!

Think about that for a minute, if that were the case, why do you think modern processors use lower and lower driving voltages? Your logic is flawed.
"Dynamic frequency scaling by itself is rarely worthwhile as a way to conserve switching power. Saving the most power requires dynamic voltage scaling too, because of the V2 component and the fact that modern CPUs are strongly optimized for low power idle states."

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1610209
I've been using paranoidandroid, and some opensensation versions before that, which all suffered from batterydrain. From what i've read that should be fixed now. What i've read is that in theory aosp could be more batteryefficient.
In addition, for aosp, there now is faux, tamcore, and showp's bricked, kernels available.
I used to use virtuous inquisition, its senseless and really great on battery! I think it's been the best battery efficient Rom by far in my opinion. Hope this helps.

Thanks for that. I was thinking the exact same thing. If everything is proportional, and it is, then decreasing one variable (voltage) should decrease everything else.
I found the virtuous inquisition rom quite good if you ask me but it all depends on your usage as well no one can help if your using your phone like crazy

[Q] RUU Battery?

Will the battery life time be better, if i flash the official RUU and turn the device S-ON?
I have got an anker battery.
no undervolt, no underclock means not so much battery life.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda app-developers app
I think it will not be better. Probbably (a little?) worse.
The thing is, custom kernels have a lot of new features and can be customized to the optimum settings according to your usage. Thus perform better and longer.
See my sig for faux kernel, which I found was best for my needs.
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
If I might make a suggestion, have you tried a slight under volt on your CPU? This can also save quite a bit of battery life. You must start small with the under volt, then lower slowly to see how your device handles it. If no reboots and it's handling it well you can slowly lower the under volt. Only to what your device can handle. Then you will see a marked improvement in your battery life. You can do this in corporation with the new kernel you are trying. It will make a significant improvement for you. You can do this through CPU tuner or like application. Many people find this method greatly improves their battery life.... it is a viable option for a significant difference.

[Q] Battery Life On Non-sense roms sucks on 3g!

Yes Another Battery Thread! I KNOW. SPAM. but well, not 100% Spam, But also reasonable.
I have a brand New Sensation XE, Proper S-OFF with all the Fun and Boogie-Woogies.
But Since going from Vipers ICS Roms, which i tried at first (but which ate too Much Ram, and I'm a AOSP Guy.)
To Cyanogen Mod 10.1, And on 3g my battery goes down in like, yes what, I guess an Hour. then its dead. is that Normal?
It wasn't as Terrible on sense. I just wonder? Any smart Android-Hero's to explain?

So the ROM isn't the problem. We have hashed battery life questions to death in the ROM's development thread and the answer always comes back to user settings or faulty hardware, usually the battery is just old.
But battery life does NOT suck on all non sense ROMs. That is just bad information.

I bought it two weeks ago Used but Just as new, Not even Tiny pocket scratches.
It was Pre-rooted and s-off using the Wiretrick by the Preowner.
Its now Running Albino's CM10.1, (03~05).
My CPU is Clocked at 15xxMhz and 398 Min I believe,
GPU's and stuff Aren't Changed. Its on the Ondemand Governor and SIO I/O Thingy.

I Go from Home Charged Everyday, with an HTC Certified dock,
I get from the countryside into the city and Jump onto 3g, the battery stays for a five minutes on "Charged" and jumps down to 95-80-7x and Finally 65 where it takes a little break, that goes in well, an half hour. Then i mostly get really Upset and angry at HTC and Cry out to my Friends with better phones telling how **** mine is, Now i'll get my replacement Batteries and see, I'll instantly report here how they all each Did.

Your battery is old. That's probably the problem. Use the Banker battery when you get it. That's the sollution. Also you are clocking the CPU pretty high. If you dont have a specific reason to run it at 1.5ghz as the max like gaming or something, back it off to like 1.2.

Yes. Its high.
If you have a specific need for it to be that high, go ahead. That's 1.5 is what the chip is designed for. It can handle it. At 1.7 you are pushing it pretty hard.
But those speeds won't do anything to improve the performance of everyday use like sending texts, making calls, or even in games like angry birds. Ifnyounplay more graphically intensive games, those speeds will be helpful. If you don't they are a waste of battery. Either way though they are using more battery at those speeds, whether you needs those speeds or not.
Backing it off to 1.2 will prevent the device from 'kicking on the afterburners' and dumping battery fast when its at max CPU. Again, if your performance suffers then this isn't the answer for you.
You will also want to use the on demand or badass governors to keep the clock speed regulated. An governor like Performance will keep the CPU running at top speed all the time. The phone will run great, but the battery will die in a hurry.

Well if you need the extra performance then you need it. But the trade off is always going to be decreased battery life with that. Nothing can fix that. Its not a bug, its physics. It takes more gas to go fast.

+1. If you take a look at the manual of your battery, it will say something like "500 recharge cycles over the life of the battery" (this is from the ANKER 1900mAh).. that's around 1,5 - 2 years of use. So depending on how often the previous owner of your Sensation charged the phone, the battery could be dead now.
New Battery
Instead of an "Anker" i got an Pisen Battery, said to have around 1780mha but actually is 1870. It works Perfectly and i get six hours screen on time now. it just still goes weird, and sometimes stays on 72 for long and 39 for long, but works just fine still. Just not a really reliable Percentage. I get to test 3g time tomorrow. Hopefully more than one a half hour and burning hands.
