Hi all. I have a problem with my one x for the past month. For example, last night I turned off my phone while fully charged. About 10 hours layer I turned it on and it had discharged 50%. This has happened quite a lot over the past month. When I leave it turned on, the battery drain is normal. I have factory reset my phone and deleted apps, but nothing helps. Does anyone have any suggestions what might be wrong? Thanks.

Do you have fastboot option turned on in settings>power? See screenshot.

It was turned on, so I turned it off. I hope this makes a difference. I just do not know why it drained so quickly while turned off. Thanks a lot.

Technically when that option is turned on, the phone doesn't actually shut down when you shut it down, it goes into a hibernate mode. Btw round here we push the thanks button

Thanks for the info and sorry, that was an oversight on my part. Cheers.

I generally do not turn my phone off. But I got a new HTC one and have been using it for 2 months. I turned off my one x this morning'sng after work at a full charge, when I turned it on, it had gone down To 31% remaining. I still can not figure out what is causing such a power drain. I did uncheck the setting you mentioned last night, but it did not help. I am gong to go to a Rogers store and see what they might suggest. Thanks again.

Battery hasn't been lasting as long recently, only getting about 2 hours of screen on time... Can anyone tell what this is using up my battery? Thanks :/

what was your talk time and how was the service where you were located. Talking draws almost as much battery as the screen, so if you were on the phone for an hour or so it would likely be equivalent.

Do a hard reset and charge the phone up fully before using it. If that doesn't work exchange it for a new one.
Also make sure all haptic feedback is turned off. When you aren't using data for several hours make sure to turn that off as well, especially if you are in an LTE area.

Does haptic feedback really affect battery that much? I wish there was an lte toggle
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
Tooany variables affect it.
- Do you set screen brightness to the highest?
- Do you live in an area with patchy signals?
- What was included in 2 hour screen time?
When surfing on WiFi with 40% brightness, I lose about 1% current in about 3.5 - 4 min. If that is the range than yours might be fine or mine is also screwed up.

I have brightness on auto, and most time is spent on twitter, xda, Facebook, Web browsing, text, email.

I would also run battery drain test from one of the HTC utilities. On mine, the battery went from 100% to 91% in an hour. Did anyone else here performed it and could please share their numbers?

I've noticed an improvement once I turned it off. Think about it: every time you tap the screen a small motor in the phone has to fire up and vibrate.

There is no way to turn LTE off on this phone. I personally tried all suggested methods on another thread. None of them work.
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
doesn't seem to abnormal to me...2 hours screen time with over an hour talk time is pretty decent over a full day. My only gripe would be to turn brightness down to about 20% unless you are needing to use your phone outside all day. it is more than sufficient and your eyes get used to it quickly. saves a ton of battery.
I am getting anywhere between 2:30-3:30 screen time with about a half hour of talk time. so many variables its hard to nail down, but try out what ppl have suggested. I also turned off haptic feedback the moment I got the phone. check how many apps you have syncing as well. that can eat up battery especially with bad coverage.
good luck
Luckily I'm in a non lte area. Avg 4 hours of screen time. Battery lasts me a couple of days, but I don't use my phone much. When custom roms hit there will be a lte on/off switch.

Google around for HSPA+ only APNs for AT&T. When you enter them, be sure to put an asterisk in the "APN Type" field, otherwise the phone won't let you select that APN set.
That's how I got LTE to shut off on my phone.

I tried a couple of APN settings but, none worked. Wondering if you could plz share the screenshot.
Edit:
I tried the APN setting suggested in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1652705&page=3
and it seems to be working so far.
Though, it should be noted with the S4 chipset that turning off LTE doesn't net you as much battery life as it used to. Though it does help with the network drops if you experience them. (I have.)
In response to the thread, though: My battery life has jumped the shark since updating to 1.85. Like, I was getting close to 17 hours mixed-use before my phone was in the red. Now, I'm lucky to get 8. I'm running it through a few more charge cycles just to make sure, but it seems pretty nasty.
EDIT: Screenshots:
Before: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4940279/images/before.jpg (1.73)
After: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4940279/images/after.jpg (1.85)
Notice I had to charge the phone halfway into the 8 hours just to keep it from dropping completely.

After going to 1.85 I too have been losing battery fast.

I must be doing something wrong since my OS takes 35% of the battery life while my screen only takes 16% :/

Ok so I turned my HOX att off last night. When I was waking up this morning it turned on as I was getting out of bed. I was kind of confused. It may be something simple im not thinking of but has anyone heard of it randomly turning on?
Almost 200 views? No one has ever had a hint of this problem?
Well the other day I was awoken by my phone restarting itself.
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
Ok. This may have been what happened to me but I was pretty sure I had turned it all the way off. hmmmm anyone else like to join in?
These phone have fastboot, so it essential is in a sleep/hibernation mode. I have seen my smokescreen flash on right before it boots, maybe something to do with that.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Do you have an alarm set? My Nexus One would turn itself on to ring the alarm even after I shut it off (scared the piss out of me the first time it did it!). I'm not sure about the HOX as I've not turned it off for any length of time.

So I charged my phone to get it to 100% and realized after looking at the battery graph that it had reached 100% but it was showing 99% and i had the amber led light on. So I turned off my phone and then the led turned green. After turning it back on, the led stayed green and the phone still reports fully charged but it still shows 99% has anyone seen this and know what could be causing it?
Sent from my AT&T HTC One X using XDA
Happens to me to. Not all the time but more often than not
The battery charges to 100% then stops till 95% then charges back to 100% to avoid overcharge, and other potential problems.

Shouldn't the battery show that progress? And if that's the case, why is it that it doesn't always happen like that? Sometimes it actually reaches 100% as you would expect

It's a known thing and pretty much all smartphones do it, it just all depends on how the battery meters "lie" to you. Every manufacturer does it differently. Hypothetical example: When it reaches 100% and starts doing the discharge/trickle charge cycle the indicator may just stay at 100% even though it's cycling between say...100% and 97%, but when you remove the charger it may change to whatever the actual percent is. Or it may show you 100% and slowly reduce the percent it displays until it catches up with the actual battery percentage.
Anything above 95% is inaccurate to a certain degree on all modern smartphones.
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
But then it sucks because my phone never reaches 100% and the green led doesn't turn on so I don't know when my phone is fully charged. I have to go into the battery graph to see when it actually reached 100%. It used to show 100% but after one day that my battery died on me completely, it hasn't shown 100% again

If you have CWM installed you can try resetting the battery stats.

That was disproved a long time ago to not effect the battery itself

You should unlock your bootloader and root before your OTA makes it so you cant
Just noticed mine stays at 99% to for about an hour then goes to 100% but.....takes about an hour to go back down to 99% even after usage.

I plan on rooting soon. My phone hasn't told me I have an update nor have I checked as of now. No plans to unlock bootloader because I don't want the tampered with flag in case something happens to my phone

Ends up that I was not giving my phone enough time to charge. When I had thought it had reached 100% it had not really done that. I left it plugged in a little bit after it said it was charged and at 99% and it reached 100% on its own
... must have clicked the wrong tab in my browser. Thought I was in Q&A
I'm I'm stock HTC one x and whenever I kill.my battery I have to charge it for a bit and like five minutes it let's me turn my phone off. In a sum up battery to dead to turn on. Give it some time and try again. Hope my info helps.

Dropped my phone a few days ago. It was all good until this morning.
I charged it all night and I wake up with it at 1percent but the charge light being green. So I restart my phone and it never turned back on.
My girlfriend has the same phone so I used hee battery.... still nothing.
I have insurance but my phones rooted... but will that effect anything if they SOMEHOW figure out that it is?
Or is it okay since this is a hardware issue?
And does anyone have an idea to fix this before I go to t mobile today?
Thanks.
