Hello there!
I know that is existing more topics about the battery,but I can`t find something to solve my problem.
I installed Vipers rom. I used before Cyanogen 10. Now,on Vipers,my battery lasts 2-3 hours. I`m using the phone only for calls,check mail and messages,total use 30 mins.
What I have to change ? I think its about settings...maybe I installed something wrong. On Cyanogen battery keeps me 8-9 hours.
Another thing is that charging time takes too long (10-12 hours) on power socket.
Can someone to help me please?

If the battery life is THAT bad it's probably not a settings issue. Your battery may just be old and worn out. Try replacing the battery itself. New ones only cost a few bucks. New better ones only a few bucks more than that.
The fact that it takes 12 hours to charge is another indicator that the battery itself has just gone bad. Your best bet is replacement.
AW: Battery about to die.
What recovery have you installed i had problems on cwm-Touch , now i am on TWRP and my batt problems with ViperS are gone. :thumbup:

Ok guys,
I bought my Sensation (Normal) 3 months ago. After 5 days I started using an1730mAh battery (Evo3D/Sensation XE, original from HTC).
Since that date my Sensation is getting extremely hot. After 10 minutes web-browsing, or 20 minutes playing any (!) game, you can't touch the phone at the screen. I would say it's about 60°C hot, different battery widgets show constantly 11,5°C.
The last days, I noticed something weird:
After closing a game (15 minutes playing), the temperature won't settle down, and... my battery drains from 85% to 34%. This happens in maybe in 2 minutes. After that, the battery drains to 4% in 10 minutes, then the phone shuts down.
I noticed this problem with any Sense 4.0 Rom, doesn't matter which Kernel or frequency.
With ARHD, I have only the insanely overheat problem.
With the normal battery, the same thing happens.
I calibrated the battery, full charging cycles, nothing helped.
I don't know what to do, would be great if someone could help me. Please ask me if I forgot some details.

From my previous experience, I will advice you to stay away from arhd rom cos it caused my phone to heat up too. Try any other Rom with Sebastian' s kernel. Should fix your heating issue.

Well, I can think of 2 options
1. Switch to another Sense 3.6/AOSP/etc ROM - InsertCoin is stable and in 3 months of using I havent had any issues with overheating, Virtuous Inquisition is not bad at all and the list goes on, I just wrote my personal favorites
2. Warranty - bring it to your seller and complain
Im not an expert, but hope it helped

This is an HTC problem. I have no clue why, but for some reasons the stats on their phones never report properly after having a custom ROM. I used to have an HTC Desire, then a GSII, now a Sensation. I noticed the stats were always off with my Desire, they were fine with my GSII, fine with a stock One X then with my Sensation I get the some terribly reported battery stats again. It is just something I have gotten used to.
Someone with more technical knowledge can explain better why it does that. But with the Desire it was a known issue which no one knew how to fix. Or the resources to fix it are just missing.
fix for battery stats and reboots
hey guys i had the same prob. was running viper 1.4.1 phone was rebooting and was geting crazy battery stats. i was reading a post about the the grounding pins on the back of the phone they touch the battery cover. pull those pins out ever so just for good contact with the cover but be gentle. i have done this and had no probs so far hope this helps let me know how u get on.
Have you checked to see if your getting a wake lock? You can download better battery stats and it will detect any wake lock you might be having and identify the offending app So you can stop the wake lock. Give it a try I think it might help. You can download better battery stats from here on xda, and read about bad and good wake locks. It's very informative. Hope this is helpful. Best wishes.

I'm also getting these kind of issues on my Sensation.
Try fully discharging and recharging the battery twice. It used to help with laptop batteries.
Hello Guys,
Now a days My Phone takes 5-6 hrs to charge from 4% to 100%, Is it the Normal case ??? Or Am I done something wrong ?
I don't know but I think it should take less time. Looking for the solutions from you all guys.
My Rom and Kernel details are provided in my sign.

Hi there,
I'm using a almost 2-years old HTC Sensastion and I was having huge battery problems for the last few days.
It all started back in february when my phone started shutting itself off just like that, showing strange battery stats (after a phone-forced reboot, 70 % of my battery would be gone), etc. So I checked some threads on XDA and came to the conclusion that my standard HTC battery wasn't functioning properly anymore. Per the advice given by some users here, I bought an Anker 1900mAh which worked fine for the past few months.
Unfortunately, the problems started again last week. Loosing battery whithout even using the phone, weird reboots which resulted in an apparently empty battery, etc. I wiped everything but the sd card and installed a new rom, but that didn't solve the problem either. So I suspected the Anker battery - you never know if you get a somewhat broken battery...
I bought another Anker 1900 mAh battery last week, but my phone is still acting weird. I didn't have any more forced reboots, but sometimes the phone just shuts down without me doing anything. Unplugging the battery for a few seconds is the only way to get it started again.
For example yesterday: I used the music app and Sygic Aura as a navigation app for about 30 minutes (screen on the whole time). The phone had 100 % battery in the beginning and after I shut everything off, it still had 95%. 10 Minutes later though the battery dropped by (!) 10 %. Just like that.
I got home and kept the phone running for about 8 hours (just "sleeping"..no data connection, no wifi, no app running). After 4 hours, the battery lost 20 % just like that. I've installed some "battery apps" to get to the bottom of this:
8 hours of just laying there:
12 hours of just laying there:
----
I'm a little concerned that this might be hardware related and that I might have to get a new phone. Changing the battery didn't solve the problem. Could it be an overheating issue? When I got home yesterday I noticed that my phone was really hot (it was freaking hot in my car though as well...).
I've been using that MIUI rom for almost a year I reckon and I've never had any problems remotely to this, so I don't think it's a software problem (at least not ROM related).
I hope you can help me
probably i think there is no proper contact
did you try to put a piece of paper ibetween the pins to improve contact?
No, I haven't.Do you mean on top of the battery or should I put the piece of paper on the bottom of the phone so that it's like

on top of the battery
edit:try both ways
The Sensation is a bit funny in the way that it reports battery usage, and can jump all over the place even on light usage. Try rebooting if you get a big jump and see if it goes back up.
Edit: Woot 100th post!
That would mean that the Sensation shuts itself off because it misreads the battery percentage? That seems highly unlikely to me. But I'm no expert

Hi Guys, I am using HTC Desire S from past 2 years..Currently using SVHD Rom on it..From past couple of days it taking more than 8 hours to charge 100% battery..
Is it related to custom ROM or simply I have to replace the battery?
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda app-developers app
I've read a few topics about this, some argued it's battery problem while others maintain its not. I've only read of one person whose charging problem was solve.
Initially I tried different roms, gb, ics, jb, etc. Wiping batt, full. Taking battery out, wipe stats, fully charging, wipe stats, etc. After 1 year decided to change my battery. I can't seem to find the cause of it as I am still charging it overnight.
No issue for me though, I still get more than 4 hours of screen on time with the old and new battery.
Would love to hear suggestions from other users if they solve this issue.

Replacing the battery solved this issue for me. I don't think changing roms will help, probably either the battery or the USB lead or charger.

charging time for battery is diffrent in each rom as you see most of sense rom takes 5-6 hrs to charge full battery and non-sense rom (i.e 4.2.2 etc) takes 3-4hrs to charge
