And I suppose you know this because your a developer? Have you never read developer notes like when flashing ROMs? Have you never read about different OS processing and optimization of app data, cache, and media files? That's why its better to do a factory reset and wipe all memory technically after updates so you don't have to deal with this stuff. I have 5 android phones I follow directions and never have issues after updates its people who don't listen read and educate that ***** about stuff not working properly. I'm not always 100% correct but I can tell you I've done my homework for every update on every phone and I haven't ever had a problem in over 2 years on stock or custom ROMs. If you don't like peoples advice then move on do what you want and deal with it.
Never asked for your advice and reading your post - would never dream of asking you about anything.
The things you talk about have nothing to do with battery life and if you stopped for a second to think about it, you'd have known that. Having 5 Android phones makes you no expert or qualify you to give any advice (obviously). Don't even know why you think the rest of us just crawled from under a rock and this is our first encounter with cellphones.
The myth about Android OS "settling" has been debunked over and over again on this forum alone, do yourself a favor and search about it, maybe you could end up learning something new...
There are basically two reasons why a phone will use more power with a new OS (if screen brightness is equal):
1. The new OS uses the processor/antenna more.
2. Apps are not optimized for the new OS (use more processor time, loops, hang-ups etc).
The myth about Android "settling in a few days" stems from the second case, when app developers publish updates optimizing their apps for the new OS. All of a sudden the battery becomes better, but it has nothing to do with the OS itself.
