RAM & Battery Issues on HTC Desire X - HTC Desire X

Total ram as stated by HTC is 768mb RAM right?
But i go in apps --> running--> Total ram is just 586MB RAM
SOLVED: YES IT IS NORMAL! OTHER RAM IS USED IN RUNNING SYSTEM AND APPS!
I have huge battery drain after installing custom rom's and everything and charging is way too slow takes 5-6 hours to charge.
SOLVED: Just flash stock boot.img(stock kernel) IT worked for me IT DOESN'T MEAN THERE'S PROBLEM WITH CUSTOM KERNELS BUT IT WORKED FOR ME.

Because the left Ram is used to run whole system and apps running.

One more question guys: My battery drains very fast like in 1 hour while playing dead trigger 2 or any other game like subway surfers!
and charging time is also very huge it takes 2 hours to go from ~10 to ~40 then next 2-3 hours to reach 90 then next half hour to reach 100!
Is this allso normal? I am on battery saver all time , no sync , brightness very low, nothing! I'm on Fulmix v1.1

Also its not only in gaming,....even if i browse 1.5 hour or like just use whatsapp for 1 hour.....battery drains completely.... ITS NOT SUDDEN! its happening from the day i rooted? did i do anything wrong? i have tried re0installing kernels and roms like 10-11 times from past month. IS IT BATTERY ISSUE OR ROOTING/CWM?

No its not normal.! Factory reset your phone & flash the Rom again via recovery! If it still continues contact the Rom developer or post on his thread! Or completely change the Rom & try some other rom! But I think there is no battery prob. in fulmix Rom cause I have tried it too!Btw try the above!

The RAM is not the internal memory or sdcard, it's the memory who runs all system and your apps. If you launch 5 apps you will have less Ram than running 1 app.
So don't care about it.

I think also battery drain is normal.
If not, flash stock boot.img and reflash stock Rom to see if it's still draining.

Deadtrigger2 sapps battery like a motherf****r (check battery usage over a day of playing DT2 and you'll understand.)

Ita very annoying... And my battery too drains very fast... Like before i alept it was 99% i woke up it was 81% even when the internet is off... Plz help me..

For those who have sharp eyes may find your battery life decreased. WHY?
Adrenaline Boost clear your system cache and your cpu will work harder to build back needed cache.
Some have reported to me that the Opera browser crash after boost when open over 3 tabs.
You system need caches to work , this boost is intended to clear old cache that are no longer using and let the system to build new cache, so if u boost it too often , your cpu will be very busy building needed caches and may consume more battery than normal !
Boost it only when it's needed then there will be no problem !

No rom can help you. If you use whatsapp your phone never sleep at all, every 10 or 15 minutes your phone will awake for checking new message... see battery status.

battery problem

my phones battery is behaving badly from past 2 weeks I have changed different roms but no help......after calibration my battery comes to normal for 1 or 2 days after that starts decreasing again ........is my battery bad? or some hardware problem?but I no its not related to rom .......
If calibrating makes a difference it doesn't sound like a bad battery. Maybe something you're installing?
Try some of the things in this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1389069
each time I calibrate it says 7% calibrated ....tried using 2.1 still battery behaves differently .....if I put it to sleep it is proper..... only when I start using it gives Me headache.........usually I get 150 to 200 MB free ram

let the ROM settle, 2 or 3 battery cycle.
installs BBS, cpu spy and gsam battery monitor
check which app is consuming more battery
if it is media scanner, there is rescan media apk available to disable it.
calibrate the battery and monitor it.

I`m able to fix my problem. Connected my phone to my PC and it is repaired to me. It was take around 1 hour to check and fix. After that I`m able to format over windows and now everything is working perfectly.
It's about the memory
I had the same problem with my S2 , it was getting hot and the battery life was shorter than norma, i has so little free memory on phone memory,so i deleted some apks and created some free space and the problem solved,my phone returned to it's normal state.i think that was the reason so check this out if it works. :good:

Turn off google now its tracks where you every 20 sec and this eats battery very fast. It will use about 3-5% battery a hour. Also install deep sleep battery saver
Look a trick for saving battery this method disables background processes in settings go to development and down, limit background processes to 1 or 2

Happy to say about my DX battery life

With Power saver enabled option and Du battery saver app and frequent data connection (not continuous data connection) my Desire X (unrooted) battery life is very good.
You're one hell of an optimist.... I like you. Among all the blabber and moaning in threads "WHEN will Cm come", "Y U NO cook CM10.2.7678" etc etc, you see the brighter side of things.
On-Topic, whats you set up?

I don't think he has a custom rom/kernel since he is still unrooted... Not sure about the tweaks though. Great performance indeed

Finally someone who is also on stock like me and has great battery life mine gives me a bout a day usage without power saver enabled or any battery saving app but 2 days is impressive :beer: :beer:
my desire x is unlocked. but not rooted. it has stock jb. no extra features above these. only thing I am doing is I use data connection when ever I need, but not always. but roughly data connection will be in active position above 2 hours in a day. my battery life is 2 days for 3g network and 2 and halfdays for 2g network. my dx has 90 insalled apps.

Lol to be sincere my desire x won't last even 4 hours with WiFi and little texting with music, 2 hours continuous gaming and from 100% to 20% and that's what my battey life is all about. With average usage and random use of WiFi I get 6 hours..and AFAIK its really depressing

Yeah, mine too. But sometimes some background job is running (not identified yet) and my DX gets really hot inside my pocket. When I kill all open apps via Task Manager and return back to Home Screen, it returns to normal state.

My battery life increased severely going from mySENSEdxRC3 to myONEdxRC2. Before, it could hardly manage a day. Now, it's closer to two days (and this is with two hours of MP3, two ours GPS [endomondo]). Also, Wifi seems a lot snappier in myONE that mySENSE.
Just my 0.02€.
Yeah, will try something different than mysensedx+, maybe the new fulmix ROM. I'll report back if battery life is better then...
Omg. I reflashed a rom this is showing wrong now!

All I used was camera. For about an hour and music for about 2-3 hours and played dead trigger for 20 min approximately
And after this I get this kind of battery life
Andyou expect me to be happy about it?
P.S. I've been on airplane mode all the time and barely used WiFi for about half an hour.
That's it.

couple battery saving tricks

this was tested on sense 4+ ATT htc one x. U NEED TO BE ROOTED AND ON A CUSTOM ROM. IT WASNT TESTED ON SENSE 5 BUT IT MIGHT WORK.
PLEASE MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE U TRY ,FOR THAT MOMENT U WISHED U HAD BACKED UP
1) calibrate the battery after u install a custom rom. easiest way is try to search calibrate battery on google play. there is a lot of info that says it does not help but i did it myself and it helped.
2) use the app attached
all u have to do is restart manually your phone, the app tries but it will not reboot the phone. this app will odex your rom which supposedly helps with battery life and performance. I cant find the original thread where I downloaded the app so I cant post links of the thread or credits. please don't credit me for it ITS NOT MY APP.
3) try greenify app from the market,. it helps a little
all credits go to their specific owner/developer of the specific apps. I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR ANYTHING .
test this and report back. i been using this for like 10 days now and it help pretty good with the battery life. i am not a heavy user nor a very light user, i use the phone normally: about 40 texts a day ,45 to an hour phone talk, couple of checks on xda, no facebook but i use a similar social app, data is allways on, also about 5 hours of wifi ,service in the area is tops 4 bars half of time is 1 or 2 bars and there is no LTE, phone gets unplugged at 7 am and i have 55 % at 10 pm but if i leave it to drain all the way it goes 30-35 hours. u can thank me if i helped. good luck.

Ive odexed a different way using terminal, but def improves the speed of opening apps, that's why htc odex in the first place. I believe battery calibrationto be a myth, your phone already knows the voltage and miliamps by reading the battery.
Yes, battery calibration is a myth.

So is odexing rom, yes phone will boot faster, and create dalvik cache faster on first boot, but there's almost none battery/performance improvements from it, not to mention it will completely break theming in any rom.
