My battery life and signal strength. I sit in the exact same spot in mycondo and would about 50% of the bars would light up. It's been this waysince I got the phone on the 2nd.
As of the update I applied yesterday, I am at 75% bars or more.
Battery life: I had it fully charged and took it to work today. Played musicin the car using Poweramp, used Wifi tethering on the train commute into work,used the camera, browser, etc. In short, the same usage. What I call moderateto heavy usage. The battery indicator would turn yellow every single day since I got the phone.
Today, I made it home with 56% left on the meter.
As my subject says, this is completely unscientific, but I can comfortablysay that both battery and signal strength has improved substantially.
Has anyone else noticed improvement reception or battery life since applying the update?
Edit: Not sure if this post should go into the S III general forum or the Sprint forum.
