HTC Sensation isn't charging fully - HTC Sensation

Hey,
I have had an HTC sensation for about a year, just recently it has started to not fully charge even when plugged in over night. It happens on both my phone and my wife's, I have tried flashing different roms and wiping battery stats with no success. I will plug the phone in most nights about 11 P.M. and get up about 6 A.M and it only has about 82% charge. I have tried several different charges as well.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!

Out of curiosity, have you tried switching to another battery to see if it's the battery or the device it's self? If you put a new battery in and the problem still persists then it's likely a problem with the device. But I would check to make sure it's not the batteries going bad. Strange both devices are doing same thing!

It does indeed sound like the battery, maybe you can try your wife's battery in your phone?

Because both devices are doing same thing I would NOT use wife's battery to test. I'd get a new one for the two of you. Hopefully it will solve the issue. Are you both still using stock battery? You might want to give anker a try. It's a extended battery and under 20 dollars! I'm really hoping this will solve the issue. Let us know keep us posted. Best wishes!

Yes we are both still using stock batteries. Thanks! After your initial post I found 2 Ankers on amazon for $30 so I am going to try that, I will post my results when I receive them a few days from now. What was so strange was that it went from charging to full in 2 to 3 hours to 82% in 7 hours.

It was the battery, a cell had gone bad. I purchased the Anker batteries (1900) and it charges in about an hour and a half and lasts 16 hours on full use, plus I sit in an office where it searches for 4g all day if I allow it. Over all it was a vast improvement and all I had was a bad battery.
Thanks for your help

So glad you got it fixed! :thumbup:

Anker 1900 mAh - One Day Sale

For those of you who missed out on LaptopMate's $10.00 price on amazon,
they are currently running a sale on eBay for $9.99 + FREE shipping!!

(It says on the ebay page that the sale ends in one day, but maybe it will last longer.)
Hope this helps.
Just ordered mine!
LaptopMate must love this forum by now, with all the business they're getting.
I ordered mine last week from a seller who was selling them for $9.99. The price has since risen to $11.99 so those of you without them better grab them now
just ordered one. awesome!
I bought a pair and charger for $28 total. Batteries are working great! You MUST buy this.
bought! thank you!
I just got my battery yesterday....it is on its 3 charge....and its not even lasting as long as my stock.... its drained 2 hours sooner then my stock.....really!!!!

let the battery get used to your habits... my bat lasted way less when i bought it than it does now. give it a week. A lot of people have had great results with these batteries.
Ok...I will give it a try and see what happens.....thanks

Your welcome guys. Glad this helped.
20hrs left on this sale.
Grab 'em if you want 'em cuz they are going for $16.99 w/out free shipping on Amazon now.
I've seen this sale up for a few days now. Been feeling conflicted about the value vs. practicality of the purchase, and then finally bought it. Aside from that, thanks for the notice!
Mine should be arriving soon. So since this is the first time I'm using an aftermarket battery, I've got a question: how should one properly cycle this battery the first few times?
I've been looking for a better/2nd battery for my Sensation since the one that comes with the phone is kinda weir. Sometime I can get 20hours out of it and still have 15% left that will last me the rest of the night but sometime it will get to 10% in 14-15 hours of average use and less if I watch movies on it. Hopefully this batter will last longer and be my main battery. For $10 if it doesn't last as long as I hope it isn't a bad price for a back up battery as well.
Thanks for the heads up, just ordered mine. By the sounds of it I might be able to get some use out of my sensation without having to be near an outlet.
thanks for the heads up i appreciate it. $7 bucks shipped with the few ebay bucks i had to spend. good stuff

After doing some research, I think I've pulled the most logical info from a number of different places and put it together below. However, I'll be doing more research and post here again if I notice something different.
-Insert Battery
-Charge up the battery 100%
(Some recommend doing so while the phone is powered off because the booted Android system may stop charging when your new battery reaches your old battery's capacity)
-Boot to recovery and wipe battery stats
-Boot to system and let it drain through normal usage until phone shuts down
-Charge up to 100%
(Again, some recommend doing so while the phone is powered off, just to be safe)
-Boot up and use as desired
Anker 1900
Mine has performed really well. It lasts about 15% longer than my stock.
I ordered mine about 4 days ago from the same seller for 9.99 just got it yesterday and my battery life has doubled! If not Tripled

Battery charge issues

Hello all. I had an issue w/ my proximity sensor so I got an AE. It was defective, so I got ANOTHER AE.
Since I owned my EVO I always get extended batteries. I bought a 2750mah and it worked great. Then it started charging slowly.
I got giftcards to Best buy for my birthday so I got a new on there. (Sedio 3400 I believe)
Now when I try to charge my phone, it will literally take 2 hrs or so to get 15-20% charged.
I use my handset heavily, but w/ my EVO it was like 2hrs = a full charge and all day heavy use got me to a minimum of 25%.
I know LTE is to blame for a little battery drain, but any ideas? Full charge to 30% in like 5 hrs sometimes. Should I order another AE?
I'm on stlck w/ the most current software btw. Thanks.

Are you using an original stock charger? Are u charging through PC?
Battery could be defective..
I was thinking if he was rooted he needed to do battery calibration since he swtiched from stock to extended battery. Clear the stats and start over fresh. Maybe I am wrong, we'll see when we answers when or if he is rooted.

I switch between the HTC charger that came with it and several other after market cables/usb wall adapters.
I try to use plug in outlets as I know the "trickle" method takes forever.
I'm on my 2nd extended battery.

I had alot of issues with charging my Incredible to the point where my phone took 5 hours to charge and 1 hour to drain. No simple answer here but if you root your phone many options exist to fix this battery issue. Recal the battery would be the first option. If you are able Root try that and come back and report.

Weird battery issue

I have a Vodafone Ireland sensation ,with the latest ics build, I keep having weird battery issue, it takes up to 5 to charge to 100% but yesterday when it reached 80 % I rebooted the phone and on startup it went to 100% ,average battery temperature is around 35 to 45 when in use and battery widget identifies the capacity as 1580 mah although it 1520 mah,same app on my Desire hd gives the right battery capacity ,and on my hd2 it give the right.mah reading too .the phone feels hot on the SIM card and memory card area when taking cover off, so decided to dev unlock ,and installed custom roms but the issue still there both my old phone last a day longer than my sensation.
I really appreciate your advice and guidance

Hi,
The Sensation has notoriously bad battery reporting.
It does take a while sometimes to fully charge,not always.
It is not really comparable to Desire which has single core and different CPU.
Your best bet is to experiment with different combinations of ROM/kernel.
People seem to be able to get 2-3 days out of some of them.
It also depends largely on how you use your phone...
This started happening to me again a couple of weeks ago. So I bought an anker battery and the problem went away. I switch both batteries every day and I don't get anymore reboots and messed up battery stats.

Had that problem too... I suppose everyone have it. I also bought 2 Anker batteries, charged fully, wiped batt-stats, and all is good now.

Is it possible to break the battery of my HOXL if I used a nexus 7 charger once?

Hello guys I'm I little worried. Here's the thing, I tried for some days figuring out how to root,unlock bootloader, super CID, etc.. it was with good battery life, but after I did all that, I installed the viperxl (i used it with my older HOXL) and everything ran good. What I have noticed is that my battery drain is so, I mean soooo bad..!
I tried a full wipe but I think it's still the same. My phone its brand new so there is no problem with older owners. I haven't changed the radio (maybe could be that?) I have lost more battery on standby than when using the phone and that didn't happened with my older HOXL
So could be that I messed my battery when I charged the phone with the nexus 7 charger??
Or what could be the problem?? Any suggestions will be good, thanks....

Is the N7 charger more amps than the One X charger? Some folks on here have said that the device will only pull the amps it needs, others have contradicted this. I don't know enough about the topic to comment either way. I use a Motorola charger on my One X every day, since it has a longer cord than the HTC charger and it happens to work better where I have it located on my desk.
I can honestly say I've used my nexus 7 charger a few times with no problems

Its a mental thing. I use my nexus 7 charger at home and my htc one at work and a high output Motorola in the car. My battery life has always been superb. Running latest viper with beastmode evita...
From what I know about charger outputs, it doesnt matter, it depends on the device. It can only pull in its max regardless of the charger. Higher the output in a charger should be better so your phone can pull in its max
There's also other factor that contributes to horrible battery life. Rogue apps, horrible networks that switches back and forth between lte and hspa+ and so on...
The last thing could just be a bad battery. Not common but I'm pretty sure it happens

yep the specifications of amps is the current that the charger can handle, as long as the charger of the n7 can handle the same or more current than the one xl charger it should be ok, many chargers are 1A.
For the OP , i think you should definitively try with another rom, maybe stock to make sure that the problem is not your battery?

On the one x charger says output: 1A, and in the N7 charger says output: 2A, but I only charged it like 2-3 times I guess, so I don't know why I have that poor battery life,.Maybe hardware problem? Or should I change my radio??
Also how can I know if its a hardware problem??

Your device isn't going to take in 2A. It's only going to take in what it can. I'm not saying that by using a different charger is not going to harm your device, it's just highly unlikely it will. They only way is to flash back to stock and see if that makes a different.
Also, you mention you had another 1x, is your current one a refurb or replacement? That may have something to do with it as well
The Rom is awesome but there are times when it doesn't work for very small numbers of devices...you're just prob unlucky.

It's not a replacement, I soldy older one to a friend and bought this new one, with WiFi I have noticed that standby and normal usage I have a good battery life, the problem is when I'm on 3g/H, maybe could the radio? Because when I'm on data it drains really really fast, like 3-6% per hour on standby...

It might be your radio switching back and forth that's draining your battery.
I have 2 jobs, my first one has lte coverage but not so great in the building so it's always switching from LTE to 4g which I notice drains my battery. My 2nd job at night has great coverage in and out the warehouse. I get full bars of LTE there and my battery would drain very slowly.
In the beginning, I was worried as well because my battery drain seem like a lot so I thought something was wrong but then I checked the battery at my second job and it was great so I figured it was just the network and location.
Overall, especially compared to all the androids I ever used, the one x battery is pretty damn impressive especially for an LTE device.
I came from Verizon using the droid razr and galaxy nexus which couldn't make it past 4 hours on lte with light usage

I've experienced crapp battery life after using my HP Touchpad charger.
Also, my 2nd HOX had horrible battery life out of the box. After fully draining > charging twice my screen on time went from 2.5 hours to 4+ hours with the exact same settings and usage.
Edit: while we're talking batteries... I heard a tech from.the ATT Device Service Center tell two people not to charge their phones overnight because leaving it on the charger when it's full is bad for the battery. Those guys are so smart! They must get their info from Yahoo Answers.

The battery meter calibration gets wiped whenever you flash a custom ROM. You should do at least 2-3 power cycles before making any judgements on battery. Charge to full, but only drain to 10-20%. Draining to shutoff doesn't make it any more accurate, but has the added risk that once in a while the safety circuit will not engage properly, and you will be stuck with a battery that will not accept a charge.
Also, on any ROM but stock AT&T, you can toggle LTE off. Since you don't have LTE in your area, toggle it off (if you haven't already) in Settings>Mobile network settings>network mode.

That's the explanation I've read previously.
But if so, why did HTC used a different charger plug for the HTC Flyer tablet than all their phones? The charge port is an interesting one, in that its bigger than a MicroUSB port, but will still accept a MicroUSB charge or sync cable (the plug only takes up the bottom "half" of the port when plugged in). The pins needed for data sync are the same, and in fact you can actually plug any MicroUSB sync cable or charger into the Flyer. But you can't plug the Flyer's charger (1.62 Amp) to any HTC phone, only the Flyer (and I assume the Jetstream tablet).
Many have said that this is so people would not plug the Flyer charger to a phone, and damage the phone from the higher amps.
Seems like the difference in amps is the only reason HTC used a different charge port for the Flyer.

In my experience, an uncalibrated battery can go from 8% battery to 0% in a matter of minutes. The only way that I've corrected this is with a full discharge.

You're just calibrating the meter, not the battery. The notion of calibrating the battery is left over from 80s technology NiCad batteries.
Under the best of circumstances, the battery meter is nowhere near accurate enough to expect readings less than 8% to be accurate. If you've experienced some more "accurate" reading at this granularity, it may just be placebo or pure chance. Even if true, I'd rather have a bit of inaccuracy in the low end, rather than play with the probability of a battery that won't take a charge.
In any case, you shouldn't be running your battery down that low. We all do it once in a while, but it shouldn't be habit.

The battery usage data is wiped with each boot or charge (same as wiping battery stats). But I don't think that is the same as the calibration data.

[Q] Is my HTC Sensation XE bricked?

Hi everyone,
I dont know what happened with my HTC, when I woke up this morning, the phone wont turn on at all. Even if I connect it to charger, the notification light doesnt on. I tried remove the battery and reboot, but nothing works.
My phone was rooted, S-OFFed and running [ROM]Viper 1.3.5 and still working last night, I didnt do anything to it (at least when I was sleeping).
Could anyone tell me what happened to it and how to fix it?
Thanks in advance
How long was it on the charger?
Sent from my Og Evo 4G
I put it on charger for about 30min, the light doens even go on, like, no charging at all. The phone still wont turn on
Could be the battery. I have had this very same thing happen to me with a new battery. No charging light at all, no sign of life what so ever! As soon as I poped in a new different battery, my phone sprang to life once more. It was very strange because the battery I was using had charge left last I checked and it was on the charger. When I checked the phone it had no life at all. No charging light either. If I we're you, I'd try a new fully charged battery, to see if that will solve your issue. Don't mess with the device before you try the new battery. My issue was the same as yours and a new fully charged battery solved my problem. Hopefully that's all it will take to also solve yours. It certainly can't hurt to try! It worked for me. If the new battery does not solve the issue then you have a different problem all together. But do give it a try and see what happens. Best of luck.

Hi there, you can order a good extended battery like Anker for under 20 bucks. I really hope the battery does the trick. When this happened to me, it was so strange because I was using a NEW
Battery and it had around 60% charge when I plugged it into my charger . Then when I went to check the phone after changing for about a hour it was black. I took it off charger and it had no life at all. I thought maybe the charger didn't connect properly so I plugged it back in, then I noticed I didn't have any charger light like I usually have. Phone was completely dead and it would not charge. Strange. I had another fully charged new battery I kept as a spare, when I put that battery in, the phone came back to life and the charging light worked again! I have not had ANY problems since. It's been about 5 months since that happened to me. I never used that battery again. I just threw it away. It must have been something with the battery. It would not even charge! No lights or anything! I'm really hoping this is your problem also because it's easily fixed. Please keep us updated and let us know if new fully charged battery solves your issue too. It sounds exactly like what happened to me, so I'm hopeful you can solve this with another battery. I wish you the best! Good luck!

Hi there, you can order a good extended battery like Anker for under 20 bucks. I really hope the battery does the trick. When this happened to me, it was so strange because I was using a NEW
Battery and it had around 60% charge when I plugged it into my charger . Then when I went to check the phone after changing for about a hour it was black. I took it off charger and it had no life at all. I thought maybe the charger didn't connect properly so I plugged it back in, then I noticed I didn't have any charger light like I usually have. Phone was completely dead and it would not charge. Strange. I had another fully charged new battery I kept as a spare, when I put that battery in, the phone came back to life and the charging light worked again! I have not had ANY problems since. It's been about 5 months since that happened to me. I never used that battery again. I just threw it away. It must have been something with the battery. It would not even charge! No lights or anything! I'm really hoping this is your problem also because it's easily fixed. Please keep us updated and let us know if new fully charged battery solves your issue too. It sounds exactly like what happened to me, so I'm hopeful you can solve this with another battery. I wish you the best! Good luck!

It was the battery guys, I bring it to the HTC, and they tested it with new battery, didnt work also. So, they put in a new mobo, new battery, then it worked. They insisted to keep it a few more days to serviced it though. I forgot to tell you guys it still under warranty, sorry a lot.
P.S.: They even gave me a HTC Desire as a temp phone
