Anyone else getting sleep death after 2.1 alpha, if not what r your settings?
Sent from my HP Touchpad using Tapatalk
Use SetCPU to set your speeds to 486mz while screen is off. Mine hasn't slept on me for 2 days.

Also keep it in airplane mode but with wireless on to avoid battery drain from cell standby.
I get the "SOD" almost whenever it locks, either manually or on it's own. I didn't have this problem before Alpha 2. I wonder if it has something to do with what's installed.
Plus I have tried the SETCPU trick and that didn't help.

But if it's not sleeping, won't the battery drain be huge? (I just got it a few seconds ago, so I can't comment on it yet...)
I'll try the soft lock. Uninstalling SetCPU didn't help.

HP Sleep of Death Fix with APP Softlocker
I used softlocker, and its worked like a charm. Just downloaded it from the market (free version, will buy other version once tested for two days), set it at boot, and works...
After day of using soft locker I unplugged the tablet at 8:00 am and at 4:00 the battery was at 83%, But have not gotten one sod, battery usage was 53% for soft locker app.

How do you enable airplane mode without disabling wifi and/or bluetooth? I'd love to disable the processes that care about phone features, but I don't want to screw with my wifi or BT (keyboard).

Enable Airplane mode. Then turn on Wifi & BT individually.
Anyone else having this kind of battery drain?

I'm not sure if that's really that unexpected.
It shows the battery going down, yes, but it also shows the phone was awake and the screen on almost that entire time.
If I played a game on mine, with the screen on the entire time, my battery would go down quickly as well.
Looks like you are streaming music, so yeah, perfectly normal

If that's all you were doing, then you've got some app keeping your phone awake and the screen on.
Fresh install though of vipers 1.2 Rom as apps did not have a chance to install yet from back up. Anyone know if the lte will drain the battery even quicker or is it the same as the 3g since its now integrated?

I had a similar issue and backed up my apps and did a fresh install and everything is great now. Don't forget to wipe Google wallet first

I still think it's because the screen was on that entire time. Check to see if you have it set to auto brightness.
As far as lte/cdma setting, I have not seen any difference in battery life when leaving lte on.
Yea I had auto brightness on was that the cause of it?

Download badass battery monitor, it will tell you what is using battery. I had a problem with wakelocks from mediaserver, killed some photo and music syncing services and battery life improved substantially.

Has anyone tried this app to improve battery life?
I was completely unaware it existed until today.

I agree. Its always turning my WiFi on. Its not even on the same times I usually do either.

I have been using it and have great results. Wifi always turning on is a pain though. I get around 14hrs.

I tried that app and really noticed nothing even after finishing learning mode I had more of a drain then any savings I uninstalled
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda premium
Maybe I'm not doing enough to drain my battery, seem to be getting excellent life without a battery app...or could be because I'm comparing to my Thunderbolt! Lol
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
I tried it but uninstalled it rather quickly. I didn't even have it installed long enough to tell how much difference it made.
After it got out of its "learning" phase, it consistently turned off my GMail push notifications, despite telling it not to, and turned my wifi on all the time. I was getting 2 days of battery life with the phone without the app, so I figured it wasn't worth the effort for me.
re
I have been using it for 5 days and I agree, it works fairly well besides WiFi. Any savings seem to be offset by the constant turning on. Try putting a WiFi widget on your homescreen and manually controlling WiFi, and let the app do everything else.

What exactly is bad about the wifi control? Does turning off at night stop you from getting notifications (ie. email)?
I actually prefer to be on wifi since I'm on a limited shared plan.
I have been using it for over a month and have had no issues with wifi. I usually finish the day with over 60% battery left. That is 13 hours before i put it on the charger.

big difference prior to using the app?
I actually just leave wifi on.. maybe that's why I only get 3 hours of screen time versus other people who get 4 or 5..
I uninstalled it a couple minutes ago lol. Makes my Google Now notifications that tell me when to leave like an hour late. Not cool :crying:
Not to mention how annoying it is to connect to the WiFi at my local McDonalds because it's called "dlink," the default name, which makes my phone "learn" to connect to every dlink. Ugh.
Mine has been in learning mode for like 2 weeks now... I don't know what the deal is... Doesn't really seem to be doing anything at all if you ask me.
I've been using this and get a good 15 hours before having to charge my phone, this is with WiFi off and on 4gLTE the whole day

I get this without any special app: moderate use all day with calls, lots of texts, some web stuff.
why its ask for location ?
Spent the whole day trying to improve my wake locks... Or reducing them.
Does everything look good? Room for improvement?

Uhm, that is awesome, especially given your use of Chrome, Facebook and YouTube.
It'd be nice to see the wake lock graph from the second battery screen, but I'd say your looking quite good. Also wondering the brightness level (auto, 50 percent, &c).
Aside from these few items of curiosity, overall a very good baseline. Thanks for sharing!

Do you have deep sleep app? Doesn't look like it, based on the dual draw for both mobile networks and WiFi. I'd say, given those results, you would only get better by adding a deep sleep option.
Overall just great performance and benchmark. Keep plugging away.

What you're seeing is me manually switching between WiFi on and off. I have LTE in my home. So when I switch, WiFi off it goes to LTE by default.

Yeah, I will have both running concurrently or manually switch, but deep sleep app is one that'll provide the means for those two bars to halt and then come back on when your phone screen is off long enough. The bars for WiFi and network would have breaks in them if no items pushed through (messages, phone calls, &c).
Also, check to see if WiFi scanning during sleep mode is set to either never or only when plugged in (from settings choose WiFi, menu, advanced) instead of always. Another item in that submenu (there are a ton of WiFi options on this phone) is automatically switching from mobile network to WiFi. You can try it on or off to see which works best for you.
These merely delay the inevitable...devs and the manufacturer can provide tools to assist with battery drain while your screen is off, but they can do little to help with power draw while your phone is awake, since how you use it drives much of the depletion rate.
That extra capacity battery is pretty awesome, but how much extra time you get from it depends a lot on how you use your phone.
Hope this helps.

Restart your phone after full charge, check to make sure Google Services isn't taking up a lot of battery through the day.. maybe install Greenify if doesn't help
stock is best. I used to try battery guru too but I drain my battery faster.

I tried every battery saving app and at the end it came up that the radio consumes most of the juice. 2000+ wakelocks for couple hr standby. Something is clearly not right. We will see how would it go with Kit Kat. Right now it feels like you have Htc One with those 4hr screen time.
Edit:
Made some test.
Charged it to 100%. Then i browsed till it gone to 70%. And guess what, i have almost 3hr of screen time..... crazy....

This was the big drain for me when I was troubleshooting battery life issues. Keeps Wifi "on" only for location tracking.

Actually it's the same with all these "battery saving" apps. They use significantly more juice with their background monitoring than they'll ever save, and most of what they do are either unecessary or common sense. They're like task killers.
Avoid
