took a screenshot because it was the best I had. Anyway I charged it not 100% maybe 80% when i get home from work. Used it a bit but not much so i was surprised when it started beeping warning me about the battery. Heres the screen shot I just took. Before how I didn't even so much as click on Tapatalk how is it possible to use that much battery if i didn't use it?

You have to kill the piece of **** app after you're done with it because it will continue using cpu cycles even when in the background.

[Q] HTC Sensation battery getting better?

Has anyone noticed their stock Sensation battery getting smarter? I was only getting 8ish hours previously (brand new battery/phone) before I'd start getting the first battery warning (15%). I just checked my phone after an extra-long day of work (my usual usage) and was delighted to discover this:

...and still going, but I'm going to juice up.
yeah me too, these batteries dont really shine till after first 4 or 5 charges/full discharges
After a few weeks of drain & charge, it's been holding up very well lately!

Kernel Battery Drain

I am on CleanRom Lite 4.0 with Ktoons kernel and the battery drain from the kernel seems really high. I've been running this setup for about a week. it stays pretty much at 20% all the time and wifi doesn't help any. is it supposed to be this high?

I would say 10 hours and 50% left... There's nothing wrong there.

Thanks I was wondering because that's only with 30 minutes of screen on time. I and I see all these people with 16 hours and like 3 hours of screen on time

Weird battery issue

I'm having some weird battery behavior. I plug it in to charge every night. Many times, when I unplug it in the morning, the battery will almost immediately drop from 100% to somewhere around 25%. After that initial drop, the remaining depletion rate seems about normal. It doesn't happen every time, but it is happening with more frequency. This was happening before I rooted it and put Hyperdrive on it.
Is my battery dying, or could something else be going on?

We have the same problem but mine is before I rooted my phone, the situation already encounter. I would suggest you buy an extended battery or the original battery again.

Battery life on N5

So I have been using my N5 with average usage. I do not do crazy gaming nor do I have all types of battery saving apps. But I have noticed that the battery life is phenomenal... I don't know if the phone is misreading the battery but last night I left my phone without charging and most of yesterday without charging. I also have a cm alpha installed and lowered CPU frequency when screen is off (to 300). Here is a screenshot of the battery meter

Could this be a misread? Is there a way for me to wipe my battery stats and test then?
Thanks,
Kevin
