I got my htc one s a few days ago and I haven't had a problem until now, love it btw. I wanted an app that shows status of cpu, ram, battery, temperature ext. I found this app called hashiriyaMeter that has all the widgets I wasn't but ever since I added these widgets, to make a long storey short, battery went from %100 to dead in 4 hours on standby! What are some widget apps that are all in one that won't drain battery? What do you guys use,"status widgets".

Just for a general FYI, live updating widgets like that WILL drain your battery.
Unfortunately updating widgets dont seem to be very efficient yet, but hopefully that app will be more efficient

Hey, you can get launcher pro plus which has good widgets, also you can use Fancy Widget for the clock..
But as you can use a proper HTC Sense rom why don't you use that?
Try the paid version of launcher pro.

You could always use an app called Beautiful Widgets. It's gorgeous and looks almost identical to the HTC widget.

I tried that one as well Today i will try another sense build, if that one drains my battery i will go back to the one i had first with 14 % drain overnight 6-7 hours.
The latest one had 35% drain on 6 hours.
What is a normal drain on a real Android with sense?

With 3G turned on all night and background syncing in place, I wouldn't be at all surprised to lose 14%, especially on a 3rd party ROM on a 3rd party device such as you're using. 35% on the other hand, is ridiculous.

Yes and now i'm back on the one that i tried first and are down to 10% / 6-7 hours sleep. SO i'm a happy camper again.
i personally hate the update.. no changes to the UI or the lockscreen or nothing,... u shouldnt have to D/L other programs just too change the UI, the update should do that.. just my personal opinion
I did the update and I seen a lot of changes Like speed when you install aps they added some more setting and the phone don't lag speed increase
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
The only reason i updated was for gingerbread and quicksettings. Speed-wise it seems to be about the same as froyo.
I agree with you on the speed. Everything seems to fun better. Like browsing cnn.com on desktop mode. Before the update it would lag pretty bad for me while scrolling. Also noticed that using my bluetooth headset works better.
It would have been nice to see changes to the default UI but I am totally happy with the update.

Why would they change the ui?
Take a minute and think about it. How many people have this phone and do nothing to mod it... or have any clue how to.
So... if they changed the ui from what the phone was sold with... do you think the average dumbass human would take the time to learn.... or just take the phone in or call freaking out.
You don't buy a car then expect a new paint job when you took it in for an oil change do you?
Just saying. Topics like this make me want to boat over a dolphin and club a baby seal.

do any of your guys facebook contacts sync with your phone book contact after the update?
lol, facebook won't sync with 2.3.4 facebook refuses to follow the android standard, google gave them a ”grace period” to comply and they haven't so it's not going to work until facebook gets off their high house. I lol because this is really old news, guess you don't follow tech blogs/sites

My facebook sync's just fine on 2.3.4
From what I have read facebook is going to put out their own o/s for phones. I don't see it going very far though.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
Mine syncs fine with 2.3.5 too.
Battery life. AMAZING. I would get 10 hours on froyo. 1gb data a month..web browsing YouTube Facebook etc.. hundreds of texts a day. Push email. Take a couple pics a day with flash.sync and auto brightness on. Occasional GPS.
16 hours of battery life. 11am - 3am. Wow. Today I only charged it a little to 65%. I got 9-10 hours from that with the same usage.
If I use it from 7am on, im confident it'll be on low battery at 11pm, rather than after dinnertime.
lucky bastards

On the MT4G launcher pro is the fastest for me and then it's GO launcher after it, both have no lag for me.
Just downloaded the new HTC Battery widget.
Nothing fancy, it's just a battery icon that sits on your home screen displaying how much battery power is left as a percentage.
When clicked on basic info opens in a new window such as health, voltage and temperature.
Just thought I'd pass it on just in case anyone is interested.

replaces lockscreen, but if you have a lock pattern it will show up as well
thanks for the suggestions, this works great (cept for the chinese). The Magic Lock suggested works great.
Thanks for the link, much appreciated. I used this lock screen app for about 3 days, there are some beautiful lock screen themes included (and downloadable) for this app. BUT...... It is a MAJOR battery hog. On average I was loosing about 2 to 3% battery drain per hour. At the end of my work day (9 to 10 hours), I'm usually around 75% on my battery with stock lock screen. When I started using the MIUI app, I was down to 50 - 55% battery at the end of my day. Switching back to stock lock got my percentages back to normal. If you can deal with the battery drain, it's cool app, even with all the Japanese lingo, lol....

Thanks for sharing the link. It looks quite technical but I cant see anything about GPS in there. Although my Google maps no longer reboots, my GPS still doesn't work on demand. Like Google maps won't be able to locate me now that I am at work for example. Also the weather tab on news and weather app doesn't work because it can't locate me.
Is anyone else having similar problems or able to suggest anything for me?
