I brought new battery for my sensation
It is a stock like looking battery.. i think it is sort of a Chinese battery..
mobile data was on.. all the day..
is this battery back up good ?
I have an xe and after more than one and half years I get this much. So I guess you're ok (sensation has a 1500 mAh battery compared to xe's 1700 mAh).
You can get greenify from the play store to increase battery life. Just saying.
Happy to help.
11h battery on a single battery life is average for any sensation so u are ok specially with data on (on wifi u get more) .I also get 11-13 h battery normally
Thanks buddy
now i am :angel:
you're lucky my battery drains in 5 hours and thats with light use.
If this is an average battery life whats the max? My maximum screen on time on my sensation XE is 3 hours on a 16 hour day. My battery charges in about 8 hours. If i change my battery will i be able to get a bit more juice?

Kind of makes me sad though. The device feels good in my hand and I like it overall, but the battery performance is unacceptable for me. I went to bed with it having something like 93% (dropping from 100% after like 15min of play). Not even 6h later I wake up and when I look at it, the battery is already drained to 85% only from standby (Yes,always-on mobile data is deactivated, power efficiency is on). After playing with the unit in train and some browsing while commuting for 30min, its already at 70% or something. During the next few hours, while working, I was just checking mails, using whatsapp from time to time and writing a few messages. No surfing, no videos no games.
By 3PM the battery was at 15%. Even worse, the damn thing takes some 4h+ to fully charge. That's just too damn long, my iphone 3gs charges fully in about an hour. What is also very frustrating is that the Sensation discharges a good portion of its current as pure HEAT. Never saw a phone get this warm afer 15min of normal usage.
I knew battery wasn't going to be stellar but this just sucks. Most of all that a full charge takes 4h. fail :-/
EDIT: Ok guys the 2.3.4 update did the trick! The battery now chrages fully within 2h and battery life has ridiculously improved!
I took it off the cord around 8am this morning. Now it's 2pm and my battery is at 83 with some 46min screen time and slight usage. Also the heating seems to be gone.
Apart from that, everything runs smoother with the new update. Guess I'm gonna keep the little guy after all
However, I did order 2 extra Ankers + charger (25$!) as additional mobilty is never wrong.
Before you return it, I recommend that you call HTC support and request a warranty exchange for the phone and battery.
You may have a defective unit.
While my battery isn't stellar, I get a minimum of 10 hours before I drop below 20% life (always-on mobile data off, manual syncing, not too many widgets).
Your phone battery performance is not indicative of Sensation battery performance for the overall majority.
Most have said that the battery gets better after a few full charges/discharges, and the todays new update is supposed to improve battery performance. Many people say the Sensation is better than most other 4G phones.
I dont play games and such, mostly phone text and email and it lasts me a day and a half. There is also a better battery you can get.
That charging time is ridiculous, which leads me to believe that your unit and/or battery is defective.
Mine charges from 15% to 100% in 2 hours. Same for almost everybody elses phone.
You might want to reconsider and try warranty exchange mentioned earlier. Also, I would suggest the ChiChi battery. I'm running from 7:30 to about 4:00 with my WiFi hot spot turned on for my Galaxy Tab 10.1 and I'm using my phone for calls, texts etc., my battery still has about 30% left when I leave work.

Dude , custom rom and anker / chitec battery.
My first time with my new anker achieved almost 24 hours on battery and almost 4 hours screen time with quite alot of use during that time.
Totally destroyed my oem battery in every way.
Also I would do a Warranty Exchange and with the new update I have seen a big differance in 2.3.4 vs 2.3.3 in terms of battery life and speed of Sense in general. I purchased a Anker 1900mah battery for $10 and fully charged to dead I get on average about 17-20 hours and I would say I'm a good moderate to HEAVY! user. Switching back to a stock battery after calibrating with the Anker Battery has also improved battery life seeing that I get between 12-14 hours with stock now. I would charge to 100% go to bed and wake up with about 97%-98%

+1 I agree 110%, Try this though Calibrate the Anker Battery then fully charge your stock battery and see what battery life you get.

Get a anker battery and download leedroid/android revolution/insertcoin. I guarantee you won't want to return it than. When I first got my device I was thinking about doing the same thing but after I looked through the thread I saw people were getting better results with the anker or chichi. Don't be discouraged that its a third party. It actually out performs the stock battery and embarrasses it.
Also download calibrate battery from the market.

I had terrible battery life for the first week or so. 6 to 8 hours max, and 2 hours screen time if I was lucky. After conditioning the battery by fully discharging then fully charging on the AC adapter for a few cycles, it corrected itself for the most part. Yesterday I had 15 hours with 3 hours screen time and still had 20+ percent left. I have a chichtech battery sitting in my mailbox right now waiting for me to get off work.

After I got my anker I sold my OEM and got two more. I also have a evo3d battery that I haven't used. I also have been hearing good things about it.

really appreciate the good advice guys, thanks. I have done my bit of reading here and many many people here report having around 4h charge timr (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1154780)
So you guys can not confirm this? If so, it might be my battery is faulty. I will upgrade to 2.3.4 and calibrate. Probably will improve battery time, I doubt however it will reduce the charge time...
Something is definitely up. I just got my Sensation 10 days ago and am still stock. It takes me ~2 hours to fully charge, and that's with me using the phone like crazy while its charging....and the phone light on the entire time.
And I get a good full days use out of it....sometimes 2 days if I dont use the screen much and just phone text email.
IT'S ALIVE!!!

Also check if your phone is always awake because I had this and it had a huge affect.
I easily get 16-20 hours with LeeDroid's ROM.
i had the same battery issue with my first sensation. Even after several cycle of charging - discharging, battery calibration, the battery would not last for more than 7-8 hours. i exchanged it , for first couple of days, it didn't hold the charge for long,.but after i did battery calibration and update to 2.3.4, now my battery will last for 12 to 14 hours with moderate use. doesn't get hot with normal use, but over the weekend , i use map navigation and temp reached 48C. I think, i should not use it as GPS for longer than few minutes, or it may burn the phone.
Juice Defender Ultimate is definitely worth the tiny amount of money it costs. Just got just over 3 days on my Sensation, admittedly i hardly used it.
Usually i get a good 22 hours from it with medium use.

Just replace the battery and you will see the difference.. my phone last ast least 10 hours.. its just amazing....
I lose almost no charge while it sits on standby.
I work 12 hour shifts, I listen to Music the entire time, browse, login to home computers for about 30 minutes using Teamviewer and keep up with RSS feeds throughout.
By the end of shift I'm down to 5%.
Sounds like you need a replacement, rather than a return, bud.
I am using MIUI 2.2.10 with Faux kernel, and have seen a severe battery drain issue. Before when i was on stock, i had the issue where Cell Standby would drain most of the battery. When i switched to MIUI, somehow that problem dissapeared. But now, i have been using the phone for 6 hours, most of it just texting, and when I started I was fully charged. Now I am at 29%. I checked the Battery Stats and it said Display was taking up 73% of this battery drain. I have no idea what could possibly be causing this because i had the brightness on low, and yet i played music for 30 minutes and that didn't even show up on the list of things draining the battery. Could someone explain this to me?
First off how low is low?
It may not show music, it isn't that draining. Display is a big one, it will eat the heck out of your battery. Either start carrying your cable with you everywhere, or get the 3500 MAh battery.

I had it on low as in the very lowest, and how much money is the 3500 mah battery?

Here is a link to a thread about the 3500mAh Battery.
I personally think it looks really bulky and ugly.
There are other alternatives like extended bateries that fit the original phone backcover. I would check the Accessories section for more info.
Here is the link to the "better" alternative in my opinion.

.I purchased a 3500 mah battery and am loving it. I the only problem I'm having is that when. I turn off my phone, and the battery still drains... It lost 70 percent in 8 hours while it was fully powered off.... I don't know why

Faulty battery.
The % in the Battery Stats is not how much battery is used. The screen at 73% means it was on 73% of the 6 hours which is 4.38 hours of the 6. If you add all the numbers in Battery stats it will be over 100.

but the stock battery had the same problem.
I recently got a Sensation, flashed Inquisition, Sense Faux Kernel, undervolted about -50 to -75, and bought an 1900mA Anker battery, and after a few days my battery life can last almost the entire day. For example, yesterday it lasted 13 and a half hours with 2 hours and 30 mins display on (which was about 70% of total battery usage. I have brightness at about 40%. What really gets to me is how the battery drains really fast once it hits 20% or so.
I've attached my battery usage from being unplugged for a few hours.
try bricked kernel. it using 25mA when in sleeping mode no need of any apps

I used to have the same issues earlier.
The fast draining from 20% is because of
Improper battery calibration which needs some time to asjust(it took 6 cycles for me).this I can confirm you because once my phone switches off because of no power left and when I plug on the charger the battery percentage goes upto 15% in just 1 min also this fast 20% drain is always attributed with last longing 100% change ( I mean battery stays at 100% even you've used your phone like for 30min with screen on all the time)

I flashed Bricked kernel last night and unplugged my phone at 4am. Currently, after being on battery for 6 hours 48 mins my battery is down to 57% with only 15mins of actual use/display on...I have system tuner and battery widget and can provide logs if anyone would like to further assist me in pinpointing why my battery sucks.
Is there an app or process keeping your phone awake or using CPU in the background? System Tuner Pro can help you diagnose this.
Also, try a clean install of your rom, stick with stock kernel and check. Re-download your apps one by one from market, checking for a few hours after each.
It should be possible to get standby drain of 1-2% ans 1.5-2 days battery with moderate use I do.

Looks like attachment uploading is broken. Anyway, A few changes I've done have improved sleep time, but my phone still looks sad compared to my girlfriends iPhone 4s battery life (17 hours on, 2 hour usage, at 62%).
I wanted to know that what is the average life of a 1700mah battery ?
I have this phone, xolo one, its lollipop, 1/GB ram , 1.3 GHz quad core with a 4.3 screen .
Its battery is draining very quickly. If I surf over 3g it can barely give me 2 hrs,gaming is worse, only an hour I think. I turned on WiFi and turned my phone into a hotspot and in 5 minutes 10 % was gone. Is this usual for this kind of battery? Also, when I run cpu-z , of shows my battery capacity as just 1000 mah . is it a bug or am I fooled ?
At the time of starting to write this , my battery was 46% now it is 42%.
When I went to service centre they just said that my battery has passed the "test".
Also, the phone is only 20 days old.
Please help me.......
From what i know , This battery capacity should last Atleast 4 hours min or average usage . Have you sent the phone himself for a checkout ? Maybe there is something faulty with the phone himself .
Other then that , An 1700Mh Battery won't give you a long usage time , so maybe you are just not used to this battery capacity !
Hi, I bought used Ace 3 recently and my battery life isn't very good. It's cca 20mins screentime — 10% battery, so cca 3 hours of screentime (both stock and CM12). I wonder if it's just old battery or if its normal.
I can return the phone in 7 days, so if such battery life is normal, I'll buy Xperia M instead which is said to be better.
Thanks for answer, I have time just until Wednesday.
It's good, depends what are you doing with it.
So my it's problem of my battery and with the new battery will the phone last one day of moderate usage without problem?
