Could you take a screen shot of your running services and post back here. Actually take a screen shot of how you normally use the phone and one right after a reboot.

I suspect the Android OS has a service or something that is running in the background, and on some versions of the hardware might be having an issue. I could compare your screen shots to what mine is doing if you are up for it.

Thanks

These are shots after a reboot. My display settings are set really low. For example in a bright room or outside i can barely see the screen. As far as usage: mainly texting/e mails

Thanks,
That's pretty much the same stuff that I have running. What is interesting is that your Android OS is a lot lower usage than mine; mine is around 28%, and I am running less then you are. I just don't get why the usage is so different. Maybe I am going down the wrong rabbit hole but other than that I don't see much difference. The only other thing I can think of is a hardware version difference, but who knows. Long and short I guess we will have to wait until the official OTA release/fix is sent out.

With all said the Maxx still gets better battery life then my HTC Evo with the extended battery. Also the voice quality seems better with Maxx, but that could be a Verizon vrs Sprint thing.

I have a DROID RAZR

My phone has the .215 leak installed and has been rooted.

My battery level indicates 50% with being on for 9h 53m 2s. Is that good for a DROID RAZR?

Screen is at 72% with a time on of 1h 44m 58s

Im running Juice Defender set at balanced mode. I also have a smart action for work to turn of WiFi, set brightness to 50%, ringer to vibrate.

Im not sure if that battery life is any better than running under stock .211.

Anyone seeing anything better for a DROID RAZR

Depending on your usage it might be fair. But if your lightly using it i would say that's not good performance.

I noticed this update does make things run faster, as well as a little more reliable LTE connection.

The verdict is still out on battery life. Yes, 7am til 11:30pm with medium use is something I could only dream of with my old phone, but if I somewhat-heavily used this phone, I would've had a dead battery by 7 or 8pm, which is just so-so. Better than your average phone, but not amazing. Not complaining- just observing.

More then likely i will be going back to .211 the battery performance on .215 on my device didn't change it's sub par at best. The only thing i noticed running the leak is less lag.

How do you go back to .211 once you are on .215 and rooted? Thanks!

I'm not rooted. There's a post at the beginning of this thread that sates how to do it it's called Matt's Droid Razr Utility 1.8.1. I haven't tried it yet kinda afraid of bricking my device, but others in this thread claim to have reverted back to .211 from .215

Couldn't you just do a factory reset? Don't most factory resets go back to an "offical" (factory image?) version?

**LordAndroid** · 08-08-2012, 04:12 PM

I'm not 100% sure if doing a factory reset would work that way but i doubt it.

A factory reset doesn't change anything except wipe all of your phone data. You will still be on the same version you were and if you're rooted you will still be rooted

I went back and forth between .215 and .211 around three to four times in the past week. Just comparing how some ROMs act on each leak. It's not that hard, the OP might have a lot of steps, but I'm just being really descriptive.

**LordAndroid** · 08-09-2012, 05:02 PM

Correct me if I'm wrong: I am not rooted and running the .215 leaked ICS build. Do I have to be rooted in order to revert back to the OTA .211 ICS build? Does Matt"s Utility root my device in order to revert back to .211?

**apquijano** · 08-09-2012, 07:09 PM

You do not have to be rooted to use Matt's utility. Just follow the steps from the OP and you'll be back to stock .211 in no time!

What if you are rooted and on .215? How do you un-root a Razr and go back to .214?

**RHChan84** · 08-09-2012, 08:06 PM

Matt's Utility, flash back to .211 then from .211, update to .214

**CyberIT08** · 08-09-2012, 08:53 PM

Yeah, I ended up installing "VooDoo Root Keeper" and un-rooted my phone. Then I used Matt's Utility 1.81 and chose Option #1. Then updated to .214 via my SD card.

Hopefully my battery is better on .214 and un-rooted.

Thanks!

I downloaded the 6.16.215 updated and I can see it on the download folders under ES file explorer. When I go to reset the phone and update from external source, there is nothing showing for the update. Please help.

Are you sure you saved it to the root directory of your SD Card? Also, the file doesn't mention the .215 update - it's "Blur_Version.6.16.211.XT912.Verizon.en.US.zip"

**apquijano** · 08-10-2012, 12:38 PM

Also, did you check the Download folder when you went to install the .zip? If you don't place it in the root folder, you have to go into the folder you placed it in and then select it.

**conan1071** · 08-10-2012, 01:21 PM

I downloaded it to my desktop on my computer and then plugged in the maxx, opened my computer, clicked on the f drive and opened the download folder and copied and paste the update folder into their. I then disconnected my maxx and went into boot mode. Then to update from external source, and all that is showing in blue coloring is the following
