hi i have a slightly annoying issue with my x10: it keept turning itself off when the battery is between 15 - 20 % i can turn it back on and it shows that i have battery left bt i check it again maybe an hour later and its turned off again if i keep using it ie play a game or browse the net it gives the n ormal countdown reminders about plugging it in and will go all the way to 1% before turning off so the problem only seems to be when not in use. any ideas?
is the power safe thing set on 15%?
What power safe thing sorry for being dumb

I am actually quite new too
seem like about 2 week only with this phone
But i do know there are something called like "Power safe blablabla" you can set at 5% 10% 15% or so on
This will definately do something when ur battery level reached certain percent
As i know it force close my WiFi adaptor ~.~
But i am not sure if its the problem that you are facing
If ur using a theme .then there might have been error in installation . Try to install the updated version of the same theme. This used to happen to me to but in different way, my phone used to jump 20% battery levels.
If u r not using a theme u can:
Save data and reflash
Or
Just find a good theme of ur liking and install. It should fix ur battery problems

I have an extended battery on my atrix. For some reason, the battery icon (stock) can't see it, so it's showing my phone at 60% signal (when the battery is a 3500MAH battery, and really, shouldn't be at 60 after 4 hours!)....so, how do I remove the battery icon? I'm running .83 with GreyBlur and Pink theme. Can I remove it in the theme and reload the theme?
go into the battery manager under settings and click the battery icon. what is using most of your CPU?
also the battery stats might need to be reset
have a search how to do it
Ok thank you. It says display is using like 40% and if I'm not on the phone the display is off, and brightness is set really low.

Hi Guys,
I am using xperia sola from last twenty days.....:good: but the battery performance is very bad:crying: when i checked my battery usage, analysis came out that more than 50% of battery is getting used by display....so to cut down that i have started using picture wallpaper instead of live wallpaper but to my surprise i came to know that Live wallpaper is running in the background which is still consuming my battery.
Battery is lasting for less than 24 hours.
help me to resolve particular issue.

either the apps running behind the background or the 3G
is the no.1 battery killer
use advanced task killer to kill task or disable those autorun apps

Task killer won't help, those tasks will come back and make it even worst for the juice they use for initation.
Disable data, or use 2G only (turn 3G back on when you really nead it). Or you can search in this forum the way to do it automatically .
For the live wallpaper issue, just uninstall it
Bright
You should try reducing the bright, Hight bright eats all the phone battery...

just choose a static background, reduse screen brightness and usage. Today's smartphones need juice. Consider buying a spare battery

Screen brightness is going to be your number one killer. Also, if you're using WiFi/3G/4G all day long that will kill your battery too. Finally, if you're playing games that use a bunch of graphics that utilize your phone's hardware (openGL, unreal engine, etc.) it will drain your battery pretty fast.
I have seen an article somewhere saying that live wallpapers don't actually consume as much battery as people make them out to be, and i found this to be true, i got 5 days out of my Optimus 2X (no sim card inside) and it had a live wallpaper, what consumes the most battery is the screen itself (reduce brightness to get better battery life while using the phone) and data on 3G (i always turn off data when i don't use it) and i normaly get 2 days out of my Optimus 2X (1 day of heavy usage).
Thank you for the info whoever provided here.

Try or start with this app above and hunt for apps that syncing/updating in the background and basically you need to make a dumb phone out of your smartphone. Disable all autosyncs/notifications in the setting and apps like Facebook disable notifications. Open up Google play>settings and uncheck all default checked settings. Disable gmail/email notifications. Disable auto backup/restore. Disable all location services/vibrations/sounds when typing/wifi or GPS or BT when not in use. Disable data or stick with 2g in standby mode. Find a custom ROM that usually will be much better with battery management.
That's in a nutshell of how I can basically keep my phone draining 1% per hour on standby mode.

A suggession try an app called juice defender
Free available n the paid one is awesome... I am not saying saying will get 100% increase but 30~40% INCREASE is observed by me and well something is better than nothing... M using the paid version bt the free one is equally good.. Oh yeah one thing.. Download.. Thn customise.. N forget it because its fully automatic...
Hit thanks if u like my research

I highly recommend GO Power Master: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gau.go.launcherex.gowidget.gopowermaster
It lets you customize power profiles and set "sleep" cycles so that it uses minimal power when you're not using it anyway (I set mine to just be phone/text from 11pm until 7am).
It also has a "smart kill" button on the widget (which you don't have to use) that will prolong battery life by killing apps that are doing nothing. I know there's a lot of argument about app/task killers out there, but it's always worked well for me.
Adjust screen brightness to 0 (dim)
use dark wallpaper
disable gps, bluetooth , wifi when not in use and also air plane mode during night time
and also clear running apps with task manager:good:
Also you could try GSam Battery Monitor Pro, it will show you which process are using %'s of power
Try this one

Android smartphones are last for less than 24 hours of heavy use.
Solution: root the phone, remove bloatware and install custom kernel and custom ROM that fits your phone for better performance.

First, excuse me for my bad english. I'll try to said something and I expect would not to be an offense to you . . . It would to be easy to turn of the phone . . . no?
Of course I have to do something of this things, but If it's necessary to do all of them . . . it would be better to don't have a smartphone . . .

Juice Defender functions only if you have you phone a lot of time inactive . . . It functions turning of your conections in inactivity period and olnly turns it on in few intervals depending of your profile . . . It's very good, but if you want your cell phone conected every time . . . this is not a solution . . .

I agree 100%. Root and ROM help heal the battery issues.

You are using stock firmware or custom?
Hello geeks,
I prostrate before ur dedication of sharing knowledge , am not hardccore android geek, am just a server admin..recently i bought HTC One x Plus..and its battery drains faster...please point me in right directin how to fix it , do u guys know any custom rom to increase battery life , and i havent root my phone yet..thanks in advance
First of all, if you have any software running in the background, no matter what ROM you use, the battery life will always be poor.
Let's go with this steps.
1. Restart your phone.
2. Download from google play Wakelock Detector.
3. (optionally) an app which shows you CPU usage like System Monitor.
4. Run Wakelock detector. At the top of it, there is a green/red bar. Red means there is something in the background running and eats your battery.
5. Turn off the screen for an hour (don't use your phone) and check Wakelock. Is the whole bar red? How much active percent do you have?

Right now am runing the tests as per ur advice bro...ll post the scrrenshot after an hour
I couldn't find any topics like this so here goes:
Currently I have my lock screen off so that when I wake my device on I instantly get to my launcher instead of going through the lock screen swiping or tapping in a combination to get to the launcher. Yeah, I get that its more secure with the lock screen on; but I just feel that the battery is getting drained when going through the lock screen. I don't know how if the lock screen is conserving battery or something. Enlighten me. I want to hear it from you guys. Will disabling the lock screen save me some battery?
Seems to me like any amount of battery saved would be negligible. Sounds like a personal preference IMO.

I don't know that the lock screen saves battery - in fact I doubt it. If it does, it's barely any, as the guy above me said. If you're trying to save battery, just make sure you're killing apps when you're done with them and maybe even install Greenify.
I think it depends on what you have on your lockscreen. If you have a bunch of widgets, then the widgets might be using up your battery. For example, if your lockscreen displays the weather and it is sync'ing the weather or location every 5 minutes, then you might see a pretty big battery draw.
