Jelly Bean RAZR/MAXX Christmas 2012 Update?

[GotnFX]

OH NO I need to remove FB completely and not just from my home screen?

You don't have to but at least limit how often to update.. Same with email.. I normally just manually update mine whenever I look at my phone...

Edit.. Sorry for the double post.

I will try that to see if that helps ! Thanks !!

THe brighter the screen is, the more power it consumes and according to the graphs, it is taking up quite a bit. I am at 26% screen today and average around the 30's.

To save energy, set the screen brightness to "auto" and check the box for save battery. Overall, you should not notice a big difference in brightness but you will notice a big difference in battery.

I'm lazy and just go into manage apps and kill it. It does however, return quite frequently. I'm going to uninstall it and just use the browser now as I don't do much on FB.

Gotta wonder, if I use something like Fast Reboot Pro after using the FB app, given all Notifications/Updates have been turned off, if the FB app would come back. Is the FB app running when you reboot your phone or do you have to open the app up first?

Has anyone tried JuiceDefender with the XMAS JB update?

The FB app would restart itself at will so I ended up uninstalling it. However, today I noticed that the Play Store had updated the app. I looked and it was not running then rebooted and its still not running.

Interesting thing though.... Since uninstalling FB, it "seems" like my battery is doing a little better. I'm at 27 hours of continuous use and the battery is at 60%. Still going to try a full cycle without FB and see if I can hit 60 hours. ....just in time for the weekend.

One of the biggest battery drains I found early on was the gmail screen widget (NOT the gmail app). With it installed on my homescreen, I was lucky if I got a full day on a charge. I quit using the widget and my battery life went back to better than a day of use. Just for kicks I tried the widget again a few weeks later and had the same results... a drastic drop in battery life. I also had the same experience with my Xoom tablet.

By chance were you push to sync or fetch at a certain time? Im just baffled that a simple shortcut widget thats not even a live type like say a win8 phone, would help drain batt. I mean anything is freaking possible but not cool at all. Please confirm my friend, please confirm...

You gave me an idea. I wonder if you set all of your apps to manual update, how much battery that would preserve? I would think, though, that this would be a serious pain in the arse. Maybe you can configure an automatic update time, or only run automatic updates while charging. I haven't played with the options enough. Anyone know, can you configure that in the Play Store app or do you have to run a Smart Action or maybe Tasker?

I'm probably going to FDR my phone. Any advice on how many times I should do it? Just once, twice? Three times? Ten? LOL Do I need to backup what's on my SD card or is that safe? I moved everything important off Internal Storage last night.

When I get back up and running, I really only need Wifi and Bluetooth On/off key taps on my home screen, a task optimizer and some indication how long my battery will last. I'm currently using GO, which has everything but at the expense of my battery, memory and therefore runs a little slow at times. I also like GO's weather widget, but Google Now is its alternative. I'm thinking a solution for seeing how long my battery will last, while preserving it at the same time, is JuiceDefender Ultimate. I may try that. Any thoughts? I don't like how the Play Store groups the DROID RAZR/DROID RAZR MAXX reviews together. It appears though, users see a 50% increase in battery life. In fact, I may just set my phone back up how I had it, minus the GO Launchers/Lockers/Widgets and give JuiceDefender Ultimate a spin. Maybe it'll fix Facebook's battery hogging issues.

At this time, are we ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY sure that we cannot go back to ICS after installing the XMAS JB update? What happens if we re-run the manual ICS update or Option 1 of the 1.82 Utility? Of course, two days after installing the update, I realize that I could really use root access. I'm pretty confident that if not now, there will eventually be a way to root. I've Googled Jelly Bean 4.1.2 root and it's been done on other phones.
