Mine has always done this.

Interesting. Maybe I had a bug - but I really liked that bug. Now it is always a two step process - plug it in, then turn off the screen...Maybe there is an app for that?

Mine did/didn't do the same thing. Prior to 4.4 the screen came in with plug in, plug out, after 4.4 it didn't which I liked, now after Sence 6 it comes on again. Crazy

There is another strange thing I noticed. When I am swiping between screens now, I am constantly launching apps unintentionally. I don't remember that being the case before S6.

I noticed the icons shifted up too! It's bothering the crap out of me. Also my time/weather widget used to be gray see thru now it's white. Smh....

I just noticed that. Before sense 6 it stayed grey the whole time.....I don't like the time based coloring for night and day. Lame

Go to Settings, Personalize, Theme. Change the theme to something else.

Exactly. I prefer them off so I selected the gray theme.

Sure would be nice if the gray theme didn't still include the hideous green...why can it not be gray, white or even the holo blue? Also, the grayed out text on the messaging app really annoys me.

My battery life has decreased tremendously after the sense 6 update!! I use to be able to go all day and then some. Now I gotta charge my phone 2 to 3 times.

Just got the update in Australia. After using my phone for over an hour, I can safely say that it's very snappy, camera interface is great and the ability to choose fonts is a welcome change.

Can't say much about battery life as I haven't fully charged charged and used it yet.

Has anyone used the extreme battery saving mode yet? And what does HTC mini + do?

 

[Loiter]

Extreme battery saving mode is very good when you are around 10% for example. It disables most of the things. You get a simple menu with calls, SMS etc. The phone becomes less of a smartphone of course but it doesnt go off on you.

The HTC+ mini is an accessory which honestly I can't remember what it is. I think something like a remote control, not sure though.

All good here but I'm a little unhappy about not having the double tap to wake the screen and I was hoping the menu wouldn't be a black background as it was in 5.5 but translucent to match the theme

HTC+ mini was or is a small handset that you could use to make calls without having to take your phone out. I think it connected to your phone via bluetooth.

I'm not sure but it seems like after I got my update to Sense 6, Google All Access started acting funny. Right now the only way to download or pin music is to uncheck the "download via wi-fi only" option. This is regardless if there is wi-fi available or not. It is scary to keep it unchecked because Google likes to update the pinned radio stations at random times. Anyone else experience this?

that extreme battery saving is pretty useless for any regular use...
i think it's just a way for HTC to save some of the extra battery drainage of the upgrade

 

[ivanhtcm7]

i read from another forum that green notification led isnt workin since the update, not even setting up. can some one confirm that.

 

[garethrdwilliams]

Nowt wrong with my notification light and now when on charge I get a constant green light for fully charged rather than a constant red light
