Hey Bomb,

How long have you been on .246? It takes a couple days to settle in. I am getting much better life on .246 than .232.

I'm not getting improved battery life on 246. Mine seems to be the same as 905

I've been running it a couple days. I know I installed it a day before Crypto

How did you get to that first screen that's shows CPU setting?

Okay, I'm having a problem. I'm on 246 for the second full day and I'm trying to run down my battery so I can go to bed and charge it fully. I need suggestions on how to run this thing down quicker.

Of course you know running a battery all the way down before charging it is the quickest way to shorten it's life, right?

I tell ya, one thing that I did notice was my wifi kept going in and out. Didn't know if it was my phone or wifi here at home. I have a linksys Cisco. So I logged onto the wifi home page, checked the firmware and found out it needed to be updated. So after the update I've had no wifi issues

Well, if it's constantly attempting to reconnect to a wifi connection, then yea, that's going to kill a battery pretty quick.

Yeah that was the other day. I guess I've been running 246 for over three days. I just expected it (and it feels like) to settle in too ICS. Maybe I should set some smart actions?

Maybe. I only have one for night time shutting off sound. The other crazy thing to ask is if you've factory reset...

I started up the quadrant standard app and chose system information.

Yes but I'm not letting it die. I'm going to 1% and then charging it.

I'm reporting in after not quite 24hours on 246. WOW. Like Sam & others here have stated, this build blows away 905. I never did any of the ICS leaks after 905. This is like a brand new phone going from 905->946. I'm so impressed with the work Moto did on this build.

My battery has lasted 17hours (stock battery), down to 20% with very heavy usage today between checking all my fantasy football teams, streaming some of the free redzone on the nfl app, tweeting, streaming a few baseball games, made some phone calls, did work emails.

Unbelievable, if I did that on 905, my phone's battery would have been zapped after 7 hours of usage. I'm just now exploring the smart actions and setting up a few other rules. I'm so excited with the new features and just how awesome this build is. It really feels like a brand new phone.

Thanks to all who have contributed comments, words of z0mg ICS is awes0mes, love of bacon, and most importantly HoB by Sam. Stellar work from this community, glad to be a very proud Bionic owner.
