I have a HTC Sensation rooted and running on the VIPER rom 1.0.1 i've had that ROM for a month without any problems until this week I charge my phone using the charger i got with the phone and it take a very long time for the battery charge. i can leave the phone in the charger overnight but it would not get fully charged. On some occasions even with the phone charging the battery level falls.
I was like totally lost. I had that charger for almost half a year and it worked perfectly on my device without any problems.
ive bought a new battery off ebay and the problem still persists
ive also tried charging with my usb port on my pc and nothing has changed.
Now the problem that I'm experiencing is that my phone discharges faster than it charges. and that totally sucks. I need some advice,

check which app is consuming most battery and turn off auto sync, bluetooth, wifi, nfc
use better battery stats to know exactly what is consuming most battery

I have something that's causing my battery to drain during the night . Around 3 a.m. I checked my phone and I was at 30% battery, opened up my recent apps list and closed all. When I woke up at 6:30 this morning my battery was down to 8%.
At home I am connected to a network extender.
I'm coming from an LG g3 and never this issue. With this phone being a non removable battery I'm trying to only plug it up and charge it when it's about to die. Unlike my g3 that I plugged up every time I went to bed.
I always charge my battery every night no matter the percentage. The way batteries are made now they do not require conditioning and draining to extend battery life. I have noticed that my phones seems to do better charging when there is 50-40% . Letting the phone get down that low all the time actually reduces how efficient your battery will be over the life of the phone. Also I never use my phone when charging. If I need to do something with it I will unplug then replug when I want to charge. Making the battery work while charging heats it up and can damage the cells of the battery. As for your battery drain between those hours it appears to me the phone must be having issues with the network extender and is constantly searching for the nextwork, maybe the extender wasn't staying connected to the nextwork? All this is imo.

This is a poll. Again, its your normal day use.
My finding so far: my battery will deplete faster if its charged with turbo charger. I have two MXPE's : one for me and one for my wife. I charged hers to 100% using Turbo and mine with normal charger. Same settings for Moto display, same brightness level and pretty much similar usages. In fact, I use my phone more than her because I am somewhat more active on whatsapp. Her phone deleted faster than mine.
Have you guys noticed any difference in this respect? I am thinking I am going to use normal charger for night and use turbo charger only in a pinch.
I've read this assertion elsewhere too - that any quick charged phone depletes battery faster. Actually I charged my battery with my old slow charger last night to see if I'd lose less today. Subjectively (because my usage isn't really consistent), it seems like maybe the phone is discharging more slowly...
Could be a possibility but i have my lg g3 that i used for a year.. Co pairing my faily usage i get about the same hours of ost.
I think hers may be going down faster maybe because of the background apps or the ost shes using? U cant say ur using the same apps unless u tried them both for ur self..
I know this is the case. I have a Tablet and Phone when I charge them with slightly higher power chargers they deplete at a much faster rate. And when I charge with the slower charger they hold a charge much longer.
(Although bare in mind I'm talking about non Quick Charging devices so maybe that plays a huge part lol but I dont use Quick Chargers on them just slightly faster chargers when I have no choice.)

For those of you that have noticed faster battery loss after using the quick charge have you tried the non quick charger for a night charge than at a random time used the car quick charge charger? Does the time differ at all than?
I think this needs more testing. I need to do the test on my phone alone on 2 consecutive working days.
I don't understand what the logic behind this theory would be. Just because one reviewer mentioned it all of a sudden its a thing? Not trying to argue just don't understand the logic. The battery/phone don't heat while turbo charging so why would battery deplete faster?

A lot of people report the device gets hot when turbo charging. By the nature of the forcing of charge and the small footprint, how could it not get somewhat hot? I do not use fast charging on my Pure due to this.

Charging fast is bad for the battery, so it only makes sense for her not to last as long.
My wife wears down faster when I quick charge her. I only do it when I need her for short bursts.

As I understand turbo change. The phone only utilizes turbo charge for the 0-85 or so, then the phone uses standard charging to top the battery off. I have also not noticed any heat while charging using the OEM charger provided out of the box. Believe what you will. I just don't care how you charge your battery.

Why would the phone discharge faster after a quick charge? Isn't one hundred percent one hundred percent? I'm not flaming, I'm actually curious if there's a difference.
Idk who came up with this, your battery does not drain faster when its charged faster, its not logical.. All turbo charge or any type of quick charge does is supplies more a more faster charging rate based on the volts and amps it puts out. This should not effect your batteries life in anyway.
I can understand the thinking behind this but there is absolutely no way you can test this correctly because you aren't doing the EXACT same usage every day. Something will always differ.
Was this ever an issue with previous Moto X's?
After about a week's use I feel like the battery has a break in period. I was getting horrible battery at first. The past few days have been par (4ish hours SOT). I've only used the OEM Turbo chargers once but I have several other Turbo chargers (mainly from Galaxy's, Turbo's, etc). Almost every charger in my house could be considered a "Turbo charger" but I only receive the notification that the device recognizes a turbo charge on the OEM charger.
That said, I have worse battery life if I charge all night. It's as if the battery fully charges, then depletes, but still registers as 100%. So shortly taking it off the charger, the battery will quickly drop to low 90's and soon into the 80's. If I charge to 100% and unplug soon after my battery life is as expected.

You are making an interesting point here. Anyone else can confirm?
I'm going to do a test myself. Before that I want to add that I've noticed when charging with turbocharger(I've used only the OEM's) the charged capacity tends to go a little over the 3000mha, it becomes something like ~3300mha and after plugging out it still stays like that until 90% where it stats under 3000mha charged.
I charge every night with slow charge. I am at 95% after 1 hour and 45 minutes unplugged. Checked some news a few texts and 2 phone calls. Seems normal to me.

Battery drain is pretty evident. I am on MM Indian ROM and below are the findings.
1. Used turbo charger to top it up at 100%. Dis-connected the charger. WIFI is enabled and network is 2G (data off). All background app sync is disabled, and the only major applications running in background are firefox and whatsapp.
With medium brightness and browsing, the battery will drop to 97-98% within 5-8 minutes.
2. 100% turbo-charged at night. WIFI enabled/2G network (Data off). Woke up in the morning after 6 hours and battery is good at 98%
WIFI off and network moved to 4G/data and after browsing for 10 minutes, the battery falls to 85%
3. Instead of turbo charger, used Xaiomi MI pad charger (non-turbo) and my experience with #1 and #2 are pretty much the same.
Hello all,
Ive changed the battery in phones labratory.
The new battery is original lg oem anf seemed
Perfectly fine.
Since I changed it,
The battery precentage is stuck on 17℅
I see the lighning bolt as if though its charging
But the battery precentage doesent change.
When I enter the battery it says not charging.
Do I need to calibrate or the battery is bad?
Please advise.
Thanks
Does the same thing happen when you put back your old battery? If it does, it could be a motherboard connection problem.
I've changed the battery in a few Nexus 5 phones using 3rd party batteries from Aliexpress and I never experienced a situation similar to yours. When I replaced the battery, I put the phone on a wired charger while powered off. I waited until the battery was fully charged booted the phone, and everything seemed fine. It's better months since I changed these batteries and they all seem to be working with a wired and wireless charger.
Hi, my HTC. One xl suddenly started draining juice, it didn't suffer any mechanical damage neither am I on a custom Rom. My HTC is unrooted and running 4.2.2.
Aside battery drainage (switched on or off) it also overheats and finally, it dosent charge when battery drains to zero(amazingly when battery drains to zero nd is not charged within 10-15minutes it won't charge again. I mean after a few minutes from shut down due to low battery it does not charge again). However after battery dies I have to take the battery out and boost the battery, plugged it back in the phone before it charges.
Thanks in advance as you try to solve this unique case.
