Which rom are you running?

Could it be you have latitude turned on? This used loads of battery on the phone I just had
I solved it by discharging the battery completely, then I did wipe battery stats and then i re-charged it. now after 6 hours its 94%
What's the typical battery time for the One S? I got mine a few days ago and it just seems like the battery drains away way too quickly than what I read on reviews. 14 minutes in and already at 83%? Yet all I did was use the 3G connection. But my screen consumption is 89% yet I have brightness at below half way, probably 40%. How is any of this possible?! I've got Google's Location service and Location and Google search options turned on, could this be it?
I haven't had the opportunity to go at it for the full day, so that's what I'm gonna do today and see how it goes.
Take a look at this (which will grow over time):

Look in your battery stats and see what is draining the battery.
I know there are a few ROMs that have the 'android os' power drain bug. I don't know the cause or whether a solution is being worked on. It seems the core of many of the ROMs are based on the same things. Kernels, modems, etc.
If it's the android os draining your battery start airplane mode, and then turn it off. Everything should go back to normal.... at least for a day or two.
I've run Zeus and JB-paranoid android. both has this issue. When i ran CM9 i didnt seem to have problems.
If it is not an issue for you, then upgrade to the latest build.
The one you are running is almost a month old now, so a lot of development has occured since then, specially at Scott's pace.
I don't guarantee it will solve your issues.. maybe it is one of your apps. But it definitely would not hurt to update, plus i'm pretty sure you will enjoy it

I'm having same issue and for me, when I restart, ot worked well for a day or two. Whrn android Os is not draining my battery, it spent 1% for 5 hours of stand by. I wanna know if there are permanent solution for this problem.

That's a joke right? 1% in 5 hours of standby is great battery life...think of it this way at that rate it would take 500 hours of standby to die...that's 20 days of standby!
Btw...official specs are 400 hours of standby...so your way above normal in a good way
Edit...think I might've mis read your reply...is the 1% drain when its running good? And what your complaining about is when it drains faster cause of android os?
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2
Maybe slightly less than 1% per 5 hours. However, it was that good. I mean I got replacement phone week ago. So it is brand new battery.
But I'm still having that problem.. Android OS drains **** tons of battery. If I restart the phone, it solves problem for a day. I wonder if there is any permanent fix...
thank you

ive seen that reflashing and doing a full wipe, seems to fix this problem 3/5 times. the 4th person usually has a bad download of the rom while the 5th person has figured out the problem on their end.

I flashed zeus a few times with complete wipes. That didn't seem to help. FWIW, I was using 5.2... not the final version. YMMV.
I am having the same problem also on PA.
I believe several others are as well.

I think this might be what you're experiencing. I've noticed a ~%20 continual usage by system_service on multiple JB ROMs not just PA whenever auto-rotate is on. Try turning it off.

Any ICS or JB ROMs will use more battery than older builds of android. Its one of the small prices to pay with all the great new features. I carry a charger with me at all times. I'm going to get a larger replacement backup battery and I won't even worry about drainage after that
Ps- which cm10 build are you running? The new 9/26 build fixed quite a bit of battery issues...
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
I'm also running cm10 4.1.1
My battery life can be extremely frustrating some days and can drain more than 10% per hour without use. I have my accounts set to no connection and my brightness is less than 10%
Here is my batter use:
I do look into my apps and find the application Facebook likes to activate even when I don't open it.
Here's my apps that are running as well:
I would love to find a solution for stable battery life. On a good day my phone will drain 30% over a 8 hour period with moderate use. I consider that pretty good.

[Q] False battery percentage

Strangely, my battery stats have been highly inaccurate, sometimes dropping by 5% and on some occasion, the battery percentage doesn't even change after 20mins of screen on time usage. I know that the displayed battery percentage isn't 100% accurate, but this seems to be too far off.. Any idea what's causing this problem?

I would think it's more likely to be the ROM. What caused it exactly? no idea.
Thank you! Someone else with this problem. I'm so glad that it's not me. I posted something about this a few months back and no one had any idea what I was talking about. Here's a screenshot just as an example of what OP and I are experiencing I snapped a few months backed which illustrates it perfectly. This has happened on every ROM I've tried, be it AOSP or Sense.
Did either of you try RUUing to see if it continues?

Alright, so I actually have some free time today for little bit. If I have s-off I can just do that 2.20 RUU (I'm on AT&T)? Do I have to relock bootloader and/or flash stock recovery like with s-on?

If you're S-OFF no need to relock or worry about your CID or stock recovery, the RUU will flash just fine. :good:
Good news! The RUU was successful and I booted up into BB9. I coumld've sworn that RUU's wipe /sdcard but apparently not. So I obviously don't have enough hours left in the day to test the battery, but I'll let it drain to almost dead tomorrow. Kinda off topic but if anyone was hesitant to RUU on Windows 8, don't worry, because I just did.
Oops
Alright well today was an abnormal day of use, but the RUU did appear to fix it. I used my phone a lot in HSPA so it APPEARS that it has the massive drains, but it all seems to be a 1% drain when I'm actually using. Here's a screenshot.

Everything is good day 2.
Uh oh... Looks like RUU didn't fix it. My phone went from 14% straight to 8% and then directly from 8% to dead. I'm stating to think that this is a hardware problem.
I agree, sounds hardware related at this point.

Battery running out fast !!

Hey guys ,
As you can tell from the subject of the thread .. I'm problems with my battery .. I'm running stock Rom ! And the phone can only live for 7-8 hours at its best .. is this something normal ? Cause the battery status is good .. I don't understand what's wrong ... I rested the phone to factory settings .. and nothing its the same performance .. 7-8 hours .. with not that excessive use ... Anyone has an idea ? Would really appreciate some help .. cause this f***** up .. 7 hours ... Specially that I wake up at 7-8 am .. so by 3-4 pm the phone is dead .. HELP ME !

Try different charger eg connect micro usb on laptop and leave it charge. From time to time it's good you leave battery to "sinchronize" and leave it charging for 7-8 hours.
Maybe it's rom dependent to. Check which apps are running in background, close unneeded, disable wifi, BT and so on. Which ROM do you use?
If you have root access then try greenify. First see what exactly is consuming you battery unnecessarily and then greenify those apps.
You can also try one power guard. It actually saves battery in my opinion.

Then you can try snapdragon batteryguru. I used to use this app before I rooted my one s. I don't think it has much effect but no harm in trying. It basically reduces the app refresh time based on your usage so that much battery is saved. It will learn your usage habits for 2 days.
You may also consider rooting your device.

What do you think about this maximus hd rom ??
Sent from my HTC One S using xda app-developers app
I suggest switching to an AOSP ROM, preferably CyanogenMod 11 since it's pretty stable. I was extremely unimpressed with the battery life on the stock ROM and decided to try a custom ROM. I'd never go back now. The battery life alone has proved to me that AOSP is better than Sense. Sense is bloated.
If you didn't try yet then try to empty the battery 3 times fully and always full recharge (make sure that the phone dies by itself).
For it was happening that the the battery was emptying down to few percent very fast (e.g. normal use 16hours) but when it was at 1 percent I could watch YouTube for 20min before the phone died.

I haven't used it, so I can't comment on it. I'm not really a fan of Sense though and Maximus is a Sense-based ROM.

It lasts me through a day with about 30% remaining after 9 hours of moderate usage. Not terrible but not great either, but the battery life just isn't very good in general on this phone.
Standby battery life is excellent though.

My tip that you need are to buy a new battery. I had almost 2 years old battery and the phone died after just 8 hours with minimal usage! So I decided to change the battery, now i've a 2100 mah. The phone is alive after 1,5 day with minimal usage!

also you can try BetterBatteryStats and you can see which app is draining your battery.
Catch it before it runs away from home!!
Just a joke. On a serious note..consider replacing battery
install an app called Wakelock Detector.
it's possible that you have an app installed that keeps waking up the device when not in use.
Wakelock Detector will tell you what app is doing that.

Android system

So I have flashed three different ROMs and for every ROM I have ran over 1 week. What is weird is that every time I see why my battery is kinda not as good is that I see on all the battery stats android system is taking like 15-20 percent on each charge . Is anyone else experiencing this?

In most of the cases when you see abnormal "Android System" battery drain, it's becouse you are using Google Now and didn't deactivated location hystory and position

Atleast your drain is 15-20% my HTC one has Android system at 84% and this only happened after 4.4.2

The HTC Sense phones display battery usage a lot differently from the stock Android phones. They specifically minimize the battery usage of the screen which is almost always your biggest drain.
