Verizon 4.4.3 bad battery life now, but EPS mode saves a TON.is there a widget for EPS?

[Jeff Harris]

my battery life went from about 17 hours, to about 12-13 with this new Verizon 4.4.3 update. ive been using the EPS mode , and it saves a ton while im at work. 8 hours into my day , and im at 85% with some use at lunch.
is there a WIDGET to one click the EPS on/off? I have the POWER short cut on my home screen to do this now, just wondering if there is an actual widget.
and will Verizon fix the android system/kernel battery use issue ?

My battery life has also gone down. You can add an EPS button to the quick settings. Drag down from the top, push the button in the upper left to open quick settings, and then hit the edit button and add EPS.

I'm still in 4.4.2 verizon, I can go 8 hrs with some use and still be at 90%,
Looks like I'll be staying at 4.4.2 till next update rolls around

Iam on 4.4.2 but the update notification is driving me crazy. Keeps popping up and keeps my phone awake cauding bad battery. I tried forcestopping htcdm but becomes enabled soon.

Same thing happened when I updated. Before the update, I never got home at night with less than 50% battery. Now, I'm almost dead when I get home. Before the update, I had never needed to charge the phone in my car or at work. Now it seems like I'm doing it every day.
