BEST OS EVER!!!!!! Im amazed!!!

[boss_hog]

For whatever reason it took a couple days before my battery life to significantly change after the os 7.1 install. After that it worked perfectly

yes you are right boss, i have loaded it yesterday, and i noticed today my battery is at 50% after 10 hours. and i used it alot for testing and bbm and phone calls here and their that added up to 40min. hopefully it gets better from here. the only thing i noticed was coverage. bbm and text messages take a little longer to send .

Norton shouldn't have never tried to make an antivirus for Windows it simply doesnt work. Microsoft Security Essential is the best free original, light designed, efficent solution for Windows Machines

i just did a full wipe with BBsak, and loaded 267 with the loader. now i dont see the battery saving option on my phone. what happened?

[2FunR1]

Is the full wipe better, do you restore from a backup after to get contacts and apps back?

pcgizmo is right so pay attention to him when it come to wiping the phone.
Waste of time just load the OS with app loader. I only put in my 2 cents because
this poster is correct and I appreciate people that know what there talking about.

I have to agree. I had a problem loading up with app loader but running dm right after the install did the install trick. I went from 440 (att) to this and wow battery life has easily doubled for me.

I'm impressed with the battery life. After a full day my battery life is at 60%! Even with 7.0 it would be around 20-40% after a day. Device analyzer shows a drain rate of 2.06% per hour. I used to get 3-5%. Hoping this continues.

My battery life is always crap. That's because I hammer it.

From my experience, NO and the best one for me is 7.1.0.267. No matter what I do, I can't get it to drop bellow 30% in a day. I wanted to calibrate my battery meter so I even put it on Internet radio for over an hour to drain the battery plus DLNA. Nope, I end up with 40% from 6 AM to 11 PM then I gave up.

I guess I am one of those few lucky ones with no battery issues.
