I see the battery stats and it was device idle eating up to 22%... What is wrong with it?
Are you on stock rom?
Try flashing another rom from android development topic. After backing up your original rom I really recommend flashing it.

I too have this...
I installed better battery stats and it shows wlan_rx_wakelock. This is wifi waking your phone. You can try a static IP address, this fixes the issue for some. Or change you wifi sleep policy to "never". Wifi will turn off when phone is sleeping ad will use data instead.
I'm trying to sort my issue too.

Static IP ? how ?
This looks familiar to my problem. For me this only happens on some WIFI-networks... The orange arrow is always on, or blinking very often. So it looks like something is downloading. I found out this data is being downloaded to Android OS (large Keep Wake Time)...

You say device idle is draining your battery but you are missing the elephant in the room, android os drained 36% of your battery, that means you have a wakelock problem.
Download betterbatterystats and check to see what is keeping your phone awake when it should be in deep sleep.
Device idle drain is normal when your device is idle.

For My S2 on JB leak I had the same issue with device idle taking a lot of battery. I frozen the Google Maps app via Titanium and everything was back to normal. Hope this will help.
Hi there I was checking my battery stats and I don't know if "idle device" should have that high percentage... any advice?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Well your phone has been on battery for quite some time, so it's normal that Android itself accumulated a lot of drainage. Note that it is not in absolute terms but comparatively; and compared to the phone running for 2 days that's ok.

I have the stock 4.5.9 gingerbread update on my AT&T ATRIX. However I am observing a terrible battery life. There are too many solutions in the forum to follow. Can someone direct me to the appropriate one? I am rooted and unlocked. I used the unlocked 4.5.9 sbf for upgrading from from Froyo to gingerbread 2.3.4
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
there;s a lot of solutions because poor battery life can be cause by many things, you have to find out what is draining your battery. try calibrating first let it drain until your phone turns off and then if you have cwm install then wipe batterystats and then a full uninterrupted charge
Try setting profiles in SetCPU and freezing apps with TitaniumBackup. Theres a topic for each of these two solutions.

Calibrate your battery.
Then freeze your bloat.
Problem solved.
dont forget you might also being playing with your phone a lot more trying to see all the new stuff in the update. Thus causing more battery drain.

There are some strange things happening with the battery. I let my battery discharge completely to the point where phone shuts down. Then I plugged in to charger, waited for 2-3 minutes so that I can start the phone. Started the phone and saw 50% battery. Don't know what's going on.
I was told by an admin from another site that most of the battery programs do not work with ova ginbread. You go to settings/about/status and observe the battery. I do no I was also getting flaky results with 2 of the battery programs.

That's a GB bug... there's a battery fix in the development section to flash which deals with the reboot battery jumping. (turn off phone at 50%, turn on phone and it says 70%)
I am having problems with my Atrix too. With my usage, I used to be able to get almost 3 days of battery life. Now it hardly lasts a day. I have checked pretty much all settings (sync, sleep) and all seems fine as far as I'm concerned. So I am having hard time trying to find what is causing this. The only suspect I have right now is wifi. I don't think wifi is sleeping even though I've selected "When screen turns off" in the sleep policy.
Hmm...well, this is the second time that this has happened in the 2.5 weeks that I've owned this phone. I'm currently running unNamed ROM 1.2.0 and noticed that my battery is draining quicker than usual (8%-10% drain per hour on IDLE).
Usually, my battery drain is between 1% - 2% per hour on unNamed. What I've noticed in both the instances where my battery drains rapidly is that I end up seeing 'Core Apps' (white envelope with android icon in the middle) under the Battery Usage. From what I can recall about this icon, it's the icon for the launcher. CPUSpy shows my phone at 78% deep sleep (the phone's usually around 93% - 95% deep sleep when in idle).
The first time this happened, I was away from home on business for 1 night and ended up having to power my phone off when it got down to 11%. Got home later that day and recharged my battery while the phone was off and after the phone was 100% charged, it lasted 38 hours with 7% left before I powered off and recharged. Again, the battery with light usage lasted 30 hours with 30% left.
Today, after charging (while off - seems to charge better this way) I was surprised to see that my battery was draining at ~10% per hour and I saw that 'Core Apps' was listed under Battery Usage again.
Fortunately, I am not away on business this time (yeah, my spare charger is on the way) so I can recharge teh phone at home. Is the only way to "reset" the phone's battery usage history by pulling the battery or charging the phone?
Hopefully, one of the devs can answer or provide a fix/workaround for the 'Core Apps' drain? (BTW, I leave my WiFi on all the time and my phone still lasts anywhere between 28 hours to 40 hours...just wondering why I have these sporadic glitches when the battery doesn't seem to last long.)
From my experience... this will be very hard to fix. Usually appear ramdomly, and disappear randomly.

Yeah...the 1st time it happened, I was wondering "WTF is 'Core Apps'?"
Now that I've seen this the 2nd time, I'm stumped by it since you're right...it doesn't happen often and doesn't seem to be reproducible by any consistent method.
Hard to do a battery pull with this Neo Hybrid case (case is a PITA to remove) and I don't have my 2ndary charger yet...
Rebooting the phone does nothing since the battery history remains and even powering off for an hour and then powering the phone back on still doesn't clear out the battery history so the drain continues!
Oh well...it is what it is then I guess...I was hoping that someone smarter than I could find a way to cure this. (BetterBatteryStats doesn't show this as a wakelock (partial or full)...CPUSpy just that my deep sleep state is in the mid to upper 70% which isn't the norm.
Oh well, hopefully, this doesn't happen too often.

But a few have reported their phone doesn't behave right in reporting battery percentages after wiping battery stats.
Doesn't mean you can't. But no one has proven it helps.

I haven't had any issues that can't be directly linked to something else (like random reboots).
If all you want to do is reset your battery useage screen to zero it definitely does that. The point isn't to help anything, just to reset the screen to zero without having to wait for the phone to charge all the way.
In that case not a bad idea if you see it show up. If it's as bad of a battery drainer as it seems and still running, it should show up again pretty quick after you clear battery stats.
It'd be useful in reading the logs to know that at a certain time it was for sure running.

Dunno, it's just odd...recharged my phone last night and now I'm back to 1%-2% battery drain on idle and the phone's going back into deep sleep at 93% and I haven't touched any of my settings. I just let the phone dip to 19% and powered off and put it on the charger for ~4 hours (I know, I could've pulled it sooner since it wasn't at 0% but honestly, I forgot.)
It's just the weirdest thing...whenever Core Apps appears as the envelope w/Android icon it seems to be persistent and stays in the battery usage. However, there have been times when the Core Apps appears as teh same icon as 'Contacts' and will disappear on it's own after a while. <-- This seems to be okay as the battery drain remains minimal.
I'll have to check out Entropy's battery drain thread later to see if I can gain any insights. (Haven't ever flashed any of Entropy's kernels as standalones -- I've just been flashing unNamed ROM so I know the kernels are stable builds and not the experimentals.)

Fast Battery Drain
Hi Frenix,
I also have an HTC ONE MAX. It's new and I've the same problem. IT'S NOT NORMAL FOR 3200mA!! See the screen I did, also if I don't use the phone, the battery drain very fast... (the first 7 hours the I didn't use the phone and it was in airplain mode). When I don't use it, the battery goes down very fast but when I use it, the battery works correctly!! This is Crazy!!! I've tried everything like charge cycles, disable all connections, reset the system to factory settings, and reset the statistics of the battery. It is definitely a sowftware problem, because if the battery is under stress, it works correctly! Consumption is given by 50% by phone on standby or idle and if the phone is also TURN COMPLETELY OFF, it drain faster than the phone turn on. I don't really what's the problem, but is not possible that a 3200mA battery drain in 1 day also if you don't use it. Do you report the same problem?

Looks to me like a wakelock issue. Some application is preventing the system from going into sleep mode. I'm working on the same issue.
When working properly, the phone should only ever be awake when the screen is on.
Use GSam Battery Monitor from the Playstore to see what is eating the battery and go from there. Depending on what ROM and if rooted or not, you can more than likely correct the issue.

My HAM2 is reporting battery level incorrectly. It keeps on going normally till about 35% and then within a few minutes, it drops down to zero and turns off. I have used the battery calibration app to try to reset the battery stats but to no avail, the problem persists. Any help will be appreciated. The ham2 is rooted and TWRP installed.

While not to the same degree, I notice once I get to about 10%, it's a crap-shoot as to whether I'm going to get another hour or so or 10 minutes. The longer I have this phone, the more I notice it's a buggy mess.

That is usually a sign of a damaged battery.
Mine is only week old but I've run down under twenty percent and it's drained and dropped consistently. Might contact Huawei since it has two year warranty.
I'll run mine down today and see what I experience.

Try recalibrating your battery, if your phone is reporting incorrect charge. The BMS within the battery might need reset.
When your phone is down to "critical level" (before the phone is ready to turn off) reboot into Recovery Mode. Let phone sit and drain until it empties.
Once empty, let sit for 4 hours. This will reset the "low value".
Charge with phone off to 100%, leave phone off. Unplug and let sit off for another 4 hours. Turn phone back on and use as normal, the battery *should* be recalibrated. The reason for waiting is to redefine a "high" and "low" charge state. If current is constantly being supplied or drained, then it will see those values as a "blip" rather than a calibration number.
It isn't always a bad battery, sometimes it's just miscalibrated.

I have this problem too. When my battery gets down to about 15%, I get a warning that I must plug in my charger immediately. I have to do it within 15 seconds or so or my battery plummets all the way to 0% and shuts down the phone. My phone is not rooted, so I don't think I have a "Recovery Mode". Or do I? Would I use the same procedure and be able recalibrate my battery ? When I restart my phone by regular (unrooted) startup after a 100% charge and 4 hour wait, would I get a Recovery Mode option or not? If not would it still recalibrate the battery?

Yea this was similar to my drain months ago . Eh idk why it's changed . Have had the same setup all this time , with amplify (wakelocks/alarm blocker) and deep sleep when screen off (PowerNap) . I have switched the sim to at&t (previously T-Mobile) .. Though both have a similar signal range at home . Not sure , will try with a t mobile sim again and will compare .

That is no way to cut the drain since the drain will be much more while using it. Find out what is draining the battery and control it.
However, if you have root, there is an app called LeanDroid on PlayStore which does what you want and much more.

Thanks, but I think you're not understanding.
There's no app or service draining the battery or abnormal battery drain. It's what we expect from a entire night with everything turned on.
What I want is automatically turn features off (something like airplane mode) when the time reach 11pm and these features turned on at 7am, time that I awake.
Probably the drain would be even lower than already it is.
