any way to undo stupid update?

[Joeykool]

Set my screen to Auto... I'll see if that helps.

Now the fingerprint scanner is acting up. Ugh!

I cleared it and re scanned my prints... Does not help.

Curse you MM android!!!!!!!!!!!

You know with all of your issues I would take it in to a warranty center and exchange it.

You are not in a area to get a good signal..

Yep, all signal and carrier dependant.

Youre at 1x... You have no cellular signal.

I don't remember that happening before the update.... I could be wrong though?

OK, had phone at 100% before bed. Woke up and it was at 99%. Was checking apps and on chrome browser for 40 minutes when I woke up and it went down to 86% in that time. Using auto brightness. Does that sound normal? Seems bad to me....

The update isn't "stupid" - at least on my phone. No problems at all and at the end of the day plenty of battery left. It would be nice if I didn't have to charge it at night but I can live with that! I think poor data signal is causing a lot of issues with people's phones. But some phones are most definitely defective...

That would be on the high-side for me and how I have my phone set up, where I have most things dialed back, turned off, deactivated and I force everything through my wifi connection. If you are running apps wide open and have lots of processes going on in the background, with spotty and inconsistent cellular signals that might be very typical.

My Verizon coverage is so bad in my house that I just turn off the cell-data, and location completely. I force everything I can through my wifi.

There is the anecdotal evidence that phones with Marshmallow use up excessive battery when hunting for weak data signal compared to under Lollipop. But I never saw any solid evidence.

I would think the only way to prove/disprove that would be to have two identical phones, set up identically on the same carrier network towers... one with LP and the other with MM. And base line them one versus the other at the same times.

Joey... for the heck of it I ran my phone last night www surfing, amazon surfing, YT videos as I normally do in a dim lit room and screen brightness turned all the way down. I was also downloading Android Wear files for my moto-360 watch. I also turned on the weather widget, to sync that with my watch. Thats something I don't normally do. After a full working day plus ~5 hours of evening dim screen on time I dropped down to 68%.

I then cranked the screen all the way up to 100% for ~50 minutes where the battery dropped from 68% to 44%. I NEVER do this btw, 100% brightness causes eye fatigue, as my eyes are sensitive to bright LED lighting. How does this compare to your usage numbers?

Where are the warranty centers? I googled it and nothing came up except for retail stores...

Who did you buy it from? Not sure how AT&T works but they make take care of it. I know VZW does when I had them. Haven't dealt with T-Mo yet.

 

[Joeykool]

Best Buy... Verizon carrier

Have you tried taking it to a Verizon store, they should be able to assist. Someone in my other thread mentioned apps automatically updating themselves to MM. Its possible you have some apps that aren't updated or optimized for MM.

 

[Joeykool]

I bought it at Best Buy.... They might not like that?
