I am looking for help with my partners SE Xperia X10 smartphone which appears to have developed an issue with what I originally thought was the battery in the phone, as it can be on charge all evening and dis-charge within a day, despite me disabling the wi-fi functions etc. I purchased a new battery for the phone and went about swapping them over.
First, here's the constants: I keep wifi/BT/GPS on 100% of the time. This was true when battery life was good, and now that battery life is bad. Disabling these will improve battery life, but will not fix my problem.
When the phone is sleeping overnight, I used to get 8-12% battery usage over about 8 hours.
I've seen lots of battery life forums, and most of them show great battery life (over 12 hours) with lots of screen time. I'm not even in an LTE area, but I get very good signal. My screen brightness is at about 30% and I have two e-mail accounts (Exchange push and Gmail sync).
Hi everyone, a while ago my phone's battery started draining very, very quickly. Even with the screen off pretty much all the time and no apps running, the battery drained within 3 to 4 hours or so. So I bought a new, 3500mah battery (old one was around 1400). This increased the battery life but it still drained for no reason. I updated my ROM several times but it didn't fix it.
My battery charge used to last all day. A couple of months ago, it fell to about two hours tops. I replaced my old 3500mah battery with a brand new 3500mah battery. No changes. I use all the standard battery saving techniques such as screen timeout, screen brightness, leaving unneeded radios of, etc..etc..
Is it possible software upgrades or some rogue application is killing my battery.
Yeah so like the topic says which is better for maintaining the battery and having a longer battery life?
Also when charging should you do it when the phone is booted up or once it is dead and then you put the charger in so the phone charges on that black screen where all that appears is the battery cell?
Thanks

Well I'll get straight into it, no matter which ROM I flash battery life sucks. I've gone from OA to CM7.2 with OC kernel now.
Just today I charged my phone fully, took it off the charger and played music ever since. I take a look at my phone and its at 70% after two hours with the screen off.
So I took the plunge...
I'm only owned my droid maxx HD for a few days now.. but noticed that the battery life isn't matching up to other stats I've seen online by other users. I know people have mixed feelings on this ... but I did a full battery discharge until my phone turned off by itself. Then from there with out turning the phone on, I let it charge while off too a full 100% again.
From 100% to near death in 18 minutes!
This was on CM7 test ROM B.I feel that there is an issue in the newer CM7 ROMs that won't let the battery charge correctly.When I did wipes on the ROM cache and battery stats I still get issues.
This is from my new battery that the phone said was fully charged when the phone was off.It shut off once in the 40 some minutes that it was on.
