Re: Really good job with battery usage

 

I don't understand how you can be getting better battery life since the OTA-7 update.  My battery life is so poor it's not even lasting a full day.  As before the update it lasted me two days without charge. I use my phone for a few texts, Web surfing and calendar events. Leaving WiFi off and Bluetooth on.  Most if the time my phone is left on standby while at work. 
Yet the over battery performance has been dreadful,  compared to when I first purchased the phone only a few months back. 
Could it be a faulty phone? 
Any other users of the MX4 had such poor performance in battery since OTA-7?
