Re: Blackberry Playbook Battery is Junk After 2.1.0.1088 Update
I don't use the native battery meter, although it's fairly accurate. I monitor my usage with BatteryGuru and have been through the last 3 updates. But since the last update I've had no appreciable change in battery consumption on our home PBs nor work PBs. We did have excessive drain on two of our 8 PBs at work. After a couple of hard resets everything was back to normal. My work PB is in use from around 7:00 until 18:00/19:00 daily, with bridge, BT and wifi on. After a hard days use it's rarely below 40-50%. Based on this forum and two others, it's apparent that a degraded battery performance is affecting a minority of PBs. I'm not sure what the cause is, I seriously doubt it's the update itself but could be related to the change and a pre-existing condition.
BB Tablet OS Update 2.1.0.1314
Hi,
I am not sure if my observation is correct but I had updated my BB 9860 and did not restart right away and then forgot to do so. My phone started draininig way faster than before with nothing else running on it. Then I did the hard reset and since then no issues. Same thing happened with my BB tablet, I did restart it after this update but am having issues with the battery drainning too quickly. Well I guess should try the hard reboot. Have done that now, will update if it worked.
