Is there anyway to revert back to before the OTA update. I could go all day without a charge but yesterday I swapped one battery to a fully charged and I had to charge that too. 3 battery in one day. Today I have had to charge twice already. Something is def wrong. Not rooted. Factory reset says it won't erase current software.
Please help this is not acceptable.

I had the opposite happen, got noticeably better. You make sure all your settings are as they were before? I had to redo some...

You can root. That process takes you back to FW that was released on day one.
Calibrate.

My settings are all the same. It seems fine when using WiFi but 4g sucks the life out. Same with 3g is I set phone to cdma auto prl. Never had issues like this. If only I could stay on WiFi all day.
To be honest, I want to root but I'm paranoid. I rooted my incredible but it was so easy with unrevoked. It seems more complicated now

same as funkybside - my battery life actually got BETTER after the OTA update. not rooted, using stock - did not alter any of the settings pre vs. post update.
The ironic thing is since I posted this my battery hasn't dropped the slightest bit. Still on WiFi. I'm convinced its the radio searching for signal. Yesterday and this morning I was out, no wifi. I chewed thru battery life...night and day difference. Before update though I never had this issue no matter what
I wonder if *228 would help?

*228 won't work on the thunderbolt due to the sim card and how it updates the PRL.
Battery life is worse after the OTA update. I am also getting forced reboots.
I've had my G2X for about a month, and have been experiencing the common issue where my phone randomly shuts off and the only way to get it to turn back on is to pull the battery.
I've installed the GB update, that didn't fix it. Factory reset didn't help either.
Has anyone successfully fixed this issue on their phone? If so, what'd you do? Is there any chance that rooting my phone would correct the problem?
Sorry if there was a post about this, I couldn't find anything talking about if anyone's been able to fix the problem.
Thanks
yes... the onlyhh way to fix the problem is to root! nvflash clock work mod recovery, then flash eagle blood 2.3.3 rom and it is perfect...
Thanks, this did indeed seems to do the trick. Not a single reboot so far after 2.5 days.

My G2X actually restarted on its own today. It was the first time since the first few days I had the phone over a month-month and a half ago. Wasn't really a big deal, lol. It comes back on.
Have been playing with this phone for 3 days now and haven't had any issues (I did install xboarder's stock rooted version). Minor screen bleed is the only issue.

Finally, someone (dmaniscool) who can say they switched to an xda dev'ed ROM and got rid of the lock ups. I've posted many times asking if anybody ACTUALLY FIXED a problem (specifically the battery pull lock up); I got no responses, and someone finally stated it. Great. Next time my wife's G2x locks up, I'm rooting and putting a ROM on it.
Thank you dmaniscool

so, PLEASE dmaniscool, occasionally update this thread with your lack of lock-ups, or if you get a lock-up. PLEASE!!!
Thanks,

Will do, so far so good! I had no experience with rooting, and was able to figure it out looking at the guides available on the forum. It kind of looks intimidating, but it's not actually very difficult.
By restart does everyone mean just shuts down? Mine never restarts, it will just shut off.

Mine did both actually, shut down and restarts. But mostly just shut downs, which required a battery pull to power back on.
My 2 will do both - but I think the "shut-off" is a lock up, because the longer I leave it locked up, the less battery I'll have after I do a battery pull.
8 days of both phones not locking up by doing one restart per day per phone.
Since I raised the minimum CPU speed to 389 from 216, I have far fewer sleeps of death
You don't wanna know where this was sent from.
I've tried every ROM and kernel combination possible and nothing actually fixes these problems for me.
Wow this post was scary at first, I had a thunderbolt and no matter what. RUU, Different ROMS, Stock, Kernels, Radios. Changing all that didn't matter it still turns off constantly and doesn't turn back on till I do it meaning no text or calls, basically same as having a phone on silent all the time without even having the luck chance of pulling it out while ringing.....
I am on miui x.26 (whatever kernal that comes with it) and have over 40 hours of uptime. I haven't had a crash yet, I just manually restart every couple of days because I'm weird like that.
Sent from my LG-P999
Well 6 days into it and I've had a total of 2 shutdowns. I don't know if it was a coincidence, but both times were after being outside when it was ~90 degrees out.
This is still much improved, I used to get 3-4 per day on average.
I'm using Eaglesblood 2.3.3. I'm thinking of trying MIUI because it's so nice looking.
For me I did a battery replacement the first time directly from T-Mobile and the phone continued restarting on me. I was just about to request a replacement phone from T-Mobile until I recently purchased a different brand of battery containing the same specs as the stock battery and to my surprise no overheating and definitely no restarts. I feel that the restarts and lockups are due to faulty batteries shipped out with the phones. I'm suprised no one has mentioned this.

Wow, I told the CostCo kiosk girl I was having lock up problems and I had my grandkids with me. She took my phone and pulled the battery - at the same time my grandson stated he had to go to the bathroom NOW. She either looked at the battery or something on the phone under the battery. I didn't have time to ask. She didn't really comment and gave me my phone back.
Hmmmmmm........

ok so do they know what exactly is causing the shut downs or reboot on this phone? i just got mine today and it was pre installed with gingerbread and idk if there is root for the gingerbread build yet. i just want root but no custom rom for me. i love the stock rom. it kicked the crap out of my sensation 4g as far as speed goes in everyday use.
I have android ics 4.0.4 on my i9020a and battery had been pretty bad... so I went to battery setting to see what's draining my battery and Android system was taking around 40% of my battery... is this normal? I though battery issue was fixed, was it not? I am not rooted, so is there any way to fix this? I would love to post a screenshot but doesn't work for me for some reason...

Do you update your Nexus manually or via OTA? As I know, the update of 4.0.4, at first, came to 9020T and 9023 ,and then, came tu Nexus S 4G but not to 9020A! If I'm wrong, correct me please.

PS: Can anyone thanks me? I can't release my Rom on the Dev section because I don't have 10 posts thanked! Ahh and the post was made a little bit with Google Traductor, I'm 16 years old.. xD Sorry
i imagine something is keeping your ns from sleeping;
google talk camera bug might be the culprit.

After some more playing today, the bluetooth radio power issue seems to be just a small rounding error on whatever else is going on.
There's an issue with Google Talk where it opens the camera at boot and the phone never goes into deep sleep again; has anyone else on this thread tried opening and closing the camera after a reboot, *then* see if CPUSpy says deep sleep is being entered? On my i9020a with CM9 a11, the camera trick allows me to start entering deep sleep ... still measuring to see how much that really helps. It would sure be nice if this was just an app bug!"

Hold the power button and vol. down button to take a screenshot. We need these screenshots at any attempt to help you.
You could also install BetterBatteryStats (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809) to see if any app is producing a WAKELOCK. (i.e. not letting your phone enter sleep.)
I've flashed v21Y.kdz and have only been rocking it for about 4 days now. Everything is stock including kernel, I don't even have CWM installed but it is rooted. Also before install 21Y I wiped everything using CWM for a fresh start.
The phone was just sitting there, no music or any app was running. I also changed battery in the phone early this morning. I also noticed that yesterday and early today before changing the battery the phone was a bit laggy, but should not be the cause of the reboot because I pulled the battery this morning.
I don't want to keep the stock rom but im loving the new baseband. I'm waiting for cyanogenmod to make a new release to work with the new baseband and then I will make the switch.
Are you using the stock battery?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA
Yes I am.
I'm just waitting for CM too, this rom is ok but I love CM roms, I think it's more stable for me, I don't know, just hope for a release that it's compatible with the new baseband
Might be a while since most of the roms, besides the 2.3.4 that kwes worked his magic on, are all based on the original July 15 baseband. The groups would have to find reason to update their roms on the July 15 baseband provided that enough users have converted and it proves reliable.
Today my phone shut off as well, It didn't reboot, I had to turn it back , I updated it thru lg, hopefully it don't happen again :-( I would of thought this update would of fix most -if not all -of those issues

Yeah I've had the update for almost a month now, and I've had a couple of reboots, but it seems to reboot when certain batteries are in the phone. I've got an anker, 2 refurbed stock, a fresh stock, and an extended 3500mah beast. On one of my refurb stock batteries I get reboots, on the anker I haven't experienced any, on the fresh stock no reboot, on the other refurb no reboot, and the 3500mah it will still reboot occasionally.
I haven't done a master reset, which a lot of people are saying will fix some of the problems. Also, sometimes the battery meter will just stay stuck and a percentage and won't go down as the battery is still drained <<< This is temporarily solved by a restart, but I think that would be fixed permanently by a master reset. I also get a dialer is busy error every now and then when a call gets dropped out of nowhere and I try to call back and apologize that I have t-mobile.
Also, just checked out the lg forum and an lg employee wrote some type of da vinci code message >>>>>>> http://support.lgforum.com/lg/topics/g2x_allinone_update

yeah, on one of my batteries I got over 200 hours uptime with no slow down or anything. Supposedly the lg stock battery is just manufactured by sanyo, so when it comes to batteries it seems like a crap shoot to me, but then again, I love rolling dice! Yoooooooooo!
Hey all
I have a Sprint Galaxy S 6 that I just updated with an update that claimed to be to improve "battery drain".
It is losing 13% in a half hour without using the phone.
I have no apps running.
I go to settings and it seems that Google Play services is always the one that uses most of the battery.
I never got great battery life but this update seemed to make it worse.
Am I missing something big???
Any advise would be appreciated.

Probably your phone won't go into deepsleep. This is caused by wakelocks and alarms. You can fix this by rooting your phone and install powernap or factory resetting your phone & start all over again.

I would rather not root my phone... I did it with my last three phones and was more trouble than it was worth for me. The phone has all of the features that I like and I don't have a need to flash ROMS.
Any other suggestions?

In that case factory reset your phone, this will delete all of your apps and data so also the wakelocks and alarms. From then your phone will go into deepsleep and you won't lose so much juice when you don't use the phone
Hi, I'm also having battery life issues. I've factory formatted from recovery menu, but I still get battery issues. I charge my phone about 3 times a day and I don't have any significant drain according to the battery usage settings.

The same here. I have everything okay according to battery stats. But I lose like 5-8% an hour when screen doesn't work. Don't know what to do.
I basically surf the net and use WhatsApp. By early afternoon, I'm down to 60% battery. I unplug my charger at 6am everyday.
