It really depends upon individual users - for example, if you're not into heave SoMed connectivity, you could force 3G data or else disable data completely. Easier methods would be to disable syncing of GMail, calendar, etc....

Also, don't compare battery in the first three days of use - let the phone get adjusted and also start clearing old caches and such with the new OS. In the first couple of days battery life is horrid, but then it stabilizes out very nicely. Standard disclaimers apply, YMMV, etc.

Thanks John, I cleared all the caches. I still have to do a factory reset and fresh install I don't look forward to that. LOL.

[johnlgalt]

Try me - I have over 350 apps installed.

I'm in the process of moving less-frequently used apps from my phone to my new Infinity, so that will help - a lot. Also, the same with a lot of my SoMed stuff, which will also help my battery usage...

[italyguy01]

Ok, took the plunge, just did factory reset... (holding breath) LOL

[italyguy01]

I have titanium backup, which was suppose to be backing up to sd card, but after factory reset. No backups found. Dang!

[B.E.McAllister]

Did you go into titanium's setting and search whole device for folder?

I will try that now. Thanks!

[italyguy01]

Whew! I think I had the drives mixed up. I did what you said and found it! Thank you!

[italyguy01]

Ok, did a complete reset and have all my apps installed again. Hopefully this is the best now!

Seems like things are running very fast and smooth.


I agree with doing a reset and reinstall. There is a ton of stuff that is not needed anymore since the ICS update.

Whew! I think I had the drives mixed up. I did what you said and found it! Thank you!

and in case you didn't see it, there is a setting in TB to allow it to remember your preferences (including the backup location). This has worked thru numerous data wipes and ROM flashes for me. Not quite sure where it store this, but I'm sure someone out there does. And it does freak a person out the first time the reinstall TB and there are no backups to be found!

6.1 RELEASE

o) General cleanup of the script and menus
o) Split the transfer option so that you can now push the update, and then check the md5. This allows a person to copy it manually if needed, and then to go back and check the md5 by selecting N to the transfer update prompt.

It's just a maintenance release. Trying to clean some stuff up. Some people had problems with the transfer option hanging at "daemon started". I've tracked that issue down. Basically? Your phone isn't being detected by adb so it's just sitting there hanging at the waiting for device command. I've made this more explicit for messaging. In any case, this isn't a huge release but should make it a clearer for people.

[johnlgalt]

sigh.

[SamuriHL]

You just be quiet and get your damn update.

[johnlgalt]

No, b/c I'm not an idiot and can figure out when it is not seeing my device.

(Plan on making a HoI anytime soon? )

[SamuriHL]

Your choice but *I* recommend updating. And no, my next thing will likely be building a custom kernel for the RAZR HD Developer phone for, um, nefarious purposes. And then seeing about starting my own rom development for it.

[johnlgalt]

Nice. I bought a Transformer Pad Infinity, so I offloaded a lot of the infrequently used apps on my BIONIC to it. BIONIC is faster again!

[SamuriHL]

I'm shocked!

Thank you, yesterday I install 235 with HoB. Its finally starting to run smooth.
I use activesync for work email,calendar and contacts. I did not do a system reset.
It did find the activesync email and set that up again for me. I check the boxes for calendar and contacts for the activesync account. But they don't see to be coming over or syncing.

Is this an issue with 232 or do I need to do a system reset?

[SamuriHL]

You mention 235 and then 232. Not sure which you're on. Exchange email in 235 had a bug if I remember right. I use touchdown myself.

[BenwayNet]

I meant I have 232, the last version I can install and still go back to 905 if I need to correct.
sorry I'm still learning about this and trying to read as much as I can.
