Power Efficiency option with ICS update?

[obidos]

Anyone know how to keep it on and what exactly does it do?

I can turn it on but it will not stay on. Any ideas?

Mine does the same thing. Will not stay on and not sure why.

Came here to ask the same question. Pre-update it was available under "power" in settings. Turned off Wifi - sync - etc when battery level got down to whatever level you set it as (I think the default was 20%). Now it is not in the settings menu at all -- but still shows under quick settings.

I also noticed that the "voice search" icon is nowhere to be found under apps anymore either -- although I can still see it's icon (and is callable) from recent apps list. Functionality is of course still available from the google search app or bar .

I'm having the exact opposite problem: I want to turn power efficiency off, but it won't do it. The toggle works, but when I leave the settings and then return, power efficiency is back on again.

This is keeping me from using 4G -- *very* frustrating. What's going on?

Just got the update to finally complete today as well. My power efficiency won't stay on either. Let's hope someone is monitoring this forum and realizes there's a bug (hopefully).

As far as I can tell, you can only turn power efficiency on or off. There's no way to set the parameters and I don't know what the default is. There's an app called "Power Saver Settings" which gives the power efficiency menu that was in the previous version of Android. Hope this helps.
