Fellow users, Greetings I just got upgraded to 5.01. This update supposed to have multi user feature but for the life of me I can't find it. Also, the quick menu does not have flash light either. Is this the same as the last major update where htc left out some Google features? Am I missing...

Re: Battery Drain after 4.3 update Sorry, here it is. Go to Select Settings, Developer options, select Runtime. change the setting to Use Dalvic. Reboot the phone. Once phone comes back it will update you apps. Next, go to Settings, Backup and Restore and select Factory Data Restore. Phone will...

Re: Battery Drain after 4.3 update PROBLEM FIXED! I figured out the problem. After the 4.4.2 update I decided to use ART instead of Dalvic in the Developer Options in Settings. Right after that I started having battery issues. I revert it back to Dalvic but it did not fix the issue until I...

Location service was not the fix. I figured out the problem. After the 4.4.2 update I decided to use ART. Right after that I started having battery issues. I revert it back to Dalvic but it did not fix the issue until I Factory re setted the phone. So, it seems ART messes up something that can...

I just read on a different forum that in location services, if you select the "device Only" setting it fixes the battery drain issue. First two choices are the culprits. I will try it now and see throughout the day if it changes things.

:) One more question conversion related. After conversion, I have noticed my battery life is significantly shorter. Have you experienced it? It is really bad. Before, I was charging my phone every 1.5 days. Now, it goes down to 10% within 15 hours and I am not even using it heavily. Any ideas...

Thanks for the link but no rush. I want to make sure OTA is working after the conversion. This is the only way to test it as far as I know.

Well, last 4.3 took months and well behind Samsung. They released the update after Asia and Europe which is mind boggling to me. I can understand they were waiting on carriers to do their testing but I had the unlocked version. Why was I waiting? I paid extra to be factory unlocked but HTC could...

Re: Massive Battery drain on 4.4? Doesn't RUU process wipes the system and data by default? Otherwise, how come all the data is gone after the conversion?

Did anyone who converted their Sense version to GPE via RUU method receive the 4.2.2 OTA update? I tried manual update from Settings a couple of times but it goes through real fast and say "your system is up to date". I am still at 4.4 and wondering if I will ever get updates OTA.

I didn't mind it either but HTC updates are slow. HTC also missing few options from stock Android. Overall, I think GPE is faster and fewer clicks to do certain things.

Didn't I mentioned in my post I had 4.4. In any case, Thanks guys! This was the reason I got rid of my crappy HTC build last night. I rooted, S-Off and now I am on stock GPE. Much happier with that. Thanks for all the replies.

Anyone? Posted via Android Central App

I hope someone can answer this question. My first impression is HTC updated my phone with a huge update but didn't really change much on the phone. For example, as I understand, Android 4.4 introduces native platform support for printing, along with APIs for managing printing and adding new...

It is **** poor customer service in my opinion. At least let unlocked phones have the update OTA. I am sure they will not bring their servers down since the numbers are much smaller. HTC is just not very customer friendly or customer focused. If they want market share in the States they better...
