3.blackout screens from time to time..even more offen after the installment,
I could go on,feelin like my battery is even goin dwm the drain because of it...
Have any of u guys had a bad experience with gsam app..ima uninstall gsam n holla back @b.m.wid..yikes,time for another fox battery train tonight...

This may be a stupid question but have you tried running in safe mode? Perhaps there could be a odd interaction between the two battery monitors and another app. It doesn't make sense though, you did a fdr cleared cache.
Very odd indeed.
By the way, the GSam battery monitor has been working well for me. I had some similar issues as you, but thought it was a app that had been the cause. Still not sure though. Keep us all posted as to your findings.

I have running GSam battery monitor for about 3 months. I have experienced no problems at all. It is a great app.

Update:some of u guys may have a good relationship with gsam n i know first hand its something i needed n gave me more information then the other app(whiched i really like,cuz i could understand it more in general)but its definitely not for me,iam stickin with b.m.Widget frm now on n iam still in process of understanding my phone n whats goin on(one day @a time)for me,it jst seemed like gsam made my razr really laggy,my dial screen freezing for the first time,unable to push any numbers, etc etc ate my battery up in some ways and b.m wid saves more of it n i nvr noticed any lag..all n all,i normally dnt ever have any bad luck with apps.this was actually my 2nd app with badluck..whatever u decide,goodluck,i jst wished the thing wrked well for me..BM wid is my keep.seems more legit for me
