check if battery fits correctly and doesn't lose any coniact
use betterbatterystats to see if any app drains your battery
how old is your battery?

I have had similar problems with my phone. Sometimes I also noticed that the battery stations significantly even if I just leave my phone switched. The first time I noticed this was ashen I flying, are you aware of such a problem?

New battery

I just got a new battery from HTC, a replacement for the stock one um using. Should I charge the new battery as sion as I put it on the phone or shall I use it and wait til it die before I charge it to have a better battery life?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium
The batteries that come with a new phone are usually around 40%, they do this because 40% is a perfect amount to charge at. If you battery you receive is at around 35%-45%, I would give it a full charge, if any less, or at 85%+ I would use it until it runs out, then search the android market for a battery calibration app.

I have a stock phone no rooting or not flashed. Are there any battery calibration app for a stock phone?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium
I just used the replacement battery but everytime I look at the stats it still shows the stats from the old battery. How can I clear the stats to start a new one. My phone is pure stock out of the box no root or flashing. Ty.

Battery stats

I've been charging my phone on a regular basis. Daily in fact. But the stats tell a different story. Anyone else with the same problem? Anyone knows how to fix this?

further explain what the hell do you mean? you need to give us a bit more detail on what exactly are you encountering or specifically ask why is this happening.
I included the screen grab didn't I? It says 6 days plus on battery. When the phone lasts only a day. See the screen grab.
And this is after the JB OTA update.

Your being to broad that doesn't mean anything to me all I see is 6days and your charging it every so often what's wrong? Your phone is lasting a day? Explain what exactly your doing you need to specify and further explain what your doing.
For example
In screenie I have 4 days on one charge.
I watched some netflix and barely any usage it was very minimal. And about every other 6 to 12 hours I turn off data and switch on airplane mode as you can see.
Another thing leaving your phone on for that much time just IMO makes the battery life die faster rather than fully charging do your usual stuff till the day ends and once done at night just shut it off charge turn back on in the morn.

Isn't this a bug? It's only supposed to tell me the time the phone's been running on battery since the last charge. See screenshot from my Photon 4G for example.

there is no bug at all. it tells you the time since the phone has been on no from the last charge.
Lets say i use my phone and im around 30% and its been 8 Hours since i turned on my phone from 100%. once i plug it in it will keep track of the time my phones been on (Up time) not from last charge.
there is an app called Better Battery Stats but it causes wakelocks but it will show you those type of stats and more
I think you are mistaken friend. The discharge graph shows the time since the last recharge. See http://support.google.com/android/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2677609&topic=2677645&ctx=topic (last para) for details.

well on my Epic it will say whatever time its been on since turned regardless of being charged or not, ive tested it out on several devices i think your losing your mind haha what does it matter anyways?
Its simply telling you how long you have been using the battery not when it was off the last charge.

For me it happens when the recharge doesn't make the battery goes above 90%. The graph will "reset" when the battery is charged above 90%.

Haha nope not quite we mean like tap the "screen" entry so we can see how many hours of screen-on time you've had, and also possibly tap the usage graph then it shows when your phone was awake, when WiFi was on/off, when it was charging etc.

As much as I do like the phone. I'm quite annoyed at the battery life and am thinking of ways to improve it and etc. but it doesn't seem to be working. I get like 8 hours and by then it's at 30% MAX. Usually around like 20 or so. 10 hours and it's pretty much dead. Am I doing something wrong? my screen is only on for about an hour and a half or so, maybe 2 hours. Lowest brightness setting, 4g off, 2g on, wifi on.. that's about it. I mean as much as I love HTC, I can't love this battery life...

Yes you're doing something wrong or have a faulty unit. Make sure you flash a good ROM (I'm using aokp) and that's it. I have my screen at about 25% brightness and here are my stats which is quite acceptable.

@devgee Lol wow 5hr37min screen and almost 10hrs thats quite impressive, all things considered hang on how is your phone still ON at 1% not charging? Mine shuts down at 4% generally...unless I charge it till 7% and unplug, then it runs to 0% before powering down?

Might be the 1% battery mod which has been added to the viper Rom (Don't know really)
I was too surprised when it was 1%
Usually it shuts down at 3% or 4%!

Well this is what I got.
This was back on CM. That rom game amazing batt life.
I don't have the screen time pic but it was just over 4 hours. Still had 1/5 of the battery left too! With this phone I just leave gps, wifi, antenna and sync on. It's so rare for me to NOT last a full day that I see no point in being conservative about use anymore.

On screen time would involve you having your phone on o.o if you got 6 hours of on screen time with a quad processor running and still have 35% left that's amazing battery life .. Maybe try saving your battery by cutting down on brightness and stuff that eats power

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.
