[Q] Battery Life Help

I flashed the HoneySenseHD 5.0 with EXT4 and noticed that the battery life is poor. im really happy with the ROM. Its really good. Slick. but maybe someone can help me if its a common problem.??
Android Version
2.3.3
HTC SENCE Version
2.1
Baseband
12.39.60.19u_26.06.04.06_m
Browser V
Webkit/533.1

try clearing the battery stats using recovery mode. that fixed my battery drainage problem.

Also, if you haven't already, take a look into getting SetCPU. It's really been a huge help with battery life for me.

I had the same problem with honeysense. Loved the rom but battery would drain 5 percent in idle. Searched the forums and someone else had the same issue, the solution posed to that poster was simply to try a different rom.
I moved on to rcmixhd and have been very happy. Just be sure to flash the percent battery mod on top if you like that sort of thing.

I have experienced this issue too, and i think it has something to do with the way ics handles dual core. Nothing to worry about though I dont think.
Also faux is known for getting hot so wouldnt use that if your worried about your phone getting too hot.
If your phone is getting past 50 degrees Celsius that's when u need to start worrying.

It's normal when its in heavy use or you're using it for a long continous time... But when it gets hot by itself without even using it, not normal... If the second is your case, check what app is continously running without your control of it...
Edit: switching from kernel to the other might make it worse, since they have different configurations and settings.... Make sure you wipe cache and dalvik cache before and after flashing kernel.... When I switch kernel to the other.... I Make sure there are no files left behind by the other kernel....

[Q]

Hi, my phone is htc sensation 4g. I've tried hypernonsense 2.8, ordroid 8.7, android revolution hd, and ordroid 9. I think all had a problem - camera close immediately when a picture is taken with flash on???? Also sometimes wifi complaint. camera sometimes work fine although.
Also the phone gets heated quickly wen using the internet.
I've decided to buy a new battery -anker 1900mah, i c it on ebay.
Is it good??
wat's ur opinion with all these probs? one more thing battery backup is too low

Is the battery charged when you are taking pics? Android revolution is pretty stable and you shouldn't have any problems there or with any of the other roms you mentioned. Did you update the firmware to match with the rom? Are you using any mods? Any mods that the rom installer gave you the option to flash? any extra kernels flashed separately?

iam currently using ordroid 9.0. the fimware is flashed using pg58img. kernel is faux123v007
hq ultra 1.5 mod for sense 4 flashed
the battery had 62% left
but when i clicked the with flash on the device rebooted:crying:
Help me
iam now thinking to install smartdroid berserk 1.5
hoping all probs are solved in that
pls give opine about the berserk and anker battery
HELP

If you want opinions on the battery, you could check Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk - plenty of reviews there.

I love my anker battery. On stock battery my phone would get hot doing regular things but with anker my phone stopped getting hot like that. it has made a big difference to me

Hi,
Sometimes it takes a couple of cycles (charge/discharge) for a battery to settle.
Alternatively,try a different kernel.

I know they are still working on the Rom .perhaps the battery life will get better as the Rom is upgraded? I'm not sure the recommended kernel for that particular Rom , this could be you need to try a different kernel? Once you have enough posts here ask on developers page the recommended kernel for battery life., this should help a bit. Also you can try juice defender it might help a bit too .as mentioned above it takes some time for a new Rom to "settle" in sometimes .this could also be the issue. Also some roms are better than others at battery conservation. Check your settings make sure nothing is draining battery and set them accordingly. Hope this helps. Best wishes

The best roms for battery life are the original htc sense roms. Have you tried one of those? Also, have you tried cleaning the battery contacts?
