Jelly Bean RAZR/MAXX Christmas 2012 Update?

50 hours????? Do you not ever use your phone or something? Lol I think its crazy some of y'all are pulling some crazy 30-50 hours. The best I can do is maybe 18 but then again push notification are set to come through immediately Google now is always running. HD widgets and zooper widget is always running as well. WiFi is on most of the time but sometimes you just can't compare to 4G which eats up battery like crazy!

Yup, I use it quite regularly. Several calls a day, dozens of text messages. Chrome for reading the news, Currents for reading tech blogs, lots and lots of email (with push turned on). I play solitair a lot when I'm bored (a lot lately).
4G and WiFi enabled, GPS and BT on as needed. Was using beautiful widgets flip clock with weather but am now using RAZR HD Circle Widget instead with better results.
Screen on time averages about 4.5 hours but that seems a bit low to me. I have screen brightness set to auto with save battery checked.

Some other things I do... I almost never "partially charge" meaning I'll let it drop down to about 30% before fully charging it - usually do this overnight. About once a week, I will let it drop down below 30% then turn it off before charging.

I posted some screenshots in the battery section of the forums.

You forgot to mention the casual upsidedown Pentagram circle and a small animal sacrifice

No, no, no.... y'all got it wrong. I had a duracell charging pad surgically implanted in my thigh. Whenever I put my phone in my pocket it starts to charge on its own. :p

I am still on ics and I am not rooted. I have been thinking about upgrading to jb. Do you all recommend rooting first or do most of you stay stock?

I think it depends on what you want. One big rooting benefit is free WiFi tether. Then there's the whole debloating I guess if you really wanted to as well. I think I did see some custom ROMs for this over on droidrzr so that could be something. There are also apps that need root to work like titanium. So idk in the end I guess its up to you on what you want. If you want to root I suggest reading up on what you're about to embark on thoroughly and then reread it again. :)

This is from today. Not bad for almost 9hrs of screen time Lol. Guess I've never paid attention to how much I actually use my phone :rolleyes:

What happened to this thread?

A Tapatalk error caused me to accidentally delete my own entire thread. :-( I am waiting for Admin to (hopefully be able to) step in and undelete it. Please stand by. If it is to be resolved, it will likely be later today.

Wow I didn't realize you COULD, POSSIBLY, MAYBE undelete a thread. Makes sense, though, either way. Lets hope it can be done.

Guess I won't be trying Taptalk.
 
I have two quick questions:

1) What is Moto Help?
2) Since I'm using the RAZR M screen and circles widget, and not the stock screen, yet both are running, can I disable the original screen? Or would that be bad? I'm thinking about the battery savings...

That's awesome with that much screen time.. Took this with only 4.5 hours of screen time.
