Since updating my HD7 to 7392 the battery is dead at 8pm despite me hardly using the phone at all.
Previously, even with lots of use I never got to the critical warning before plugging it in at 11pm.
Sick of this WP7 **** now. Phone still 16 bit colour as well.
Phone is o2 UK but debranded using petbede's method, then official NoDo and official 7392 installed over the top.
Didn't regret not getting the iPhone 4 for a few months but I'm starting to now.
So no-one else affected?
Well, I'm now restoring back to 7390. If this doesn't fix it I'm gonna get rid of this damn phone and god knows what I'll end up with.
Has anyone noticed trade in values for the HD7 have gone to ****? I'll be lucky to end up back where I started on an iPhone 3G.
Have you bothered to recondition your battery? As in charge it full, drain it all the way, then recharge.
If so, contact HTC for a replacement battery. The 7392 was only security patches, nothing is related to battery life.
But if you are too lazy to do that, go ahead. Have fun with your new/old IPhone 3G.
Ive noticed my battery dies alot quicker now to but I totally forgot that I updated my phone until now.lol

Thanks but it's literally gone since I did the update. Previously it would last me the whole day.
I'll try a few sets of charging and draining, but it will be interesting to see what happens now that I've rolled it back to 7390.
I understood it to be the same as you, 7392 is just a security update. But something about the process of installing updates seems to cause battery issues.
I really don't want to go back to an iPhone as when I use my wife's 3GS it seems very dated compared to WP7. But I'm sick of the hassle of WP7 at the moment!

no such issues..... how do u test the screen for 16 bit... my screen looks crisp and hd still...
I noticed this last night.
I charged it fully before going to work at 8pm then time it came to 12:30 i had used over 3/4 of the battery just by web surfing and sending 8 sms.
Mine is a o2 HD7 but running the euro htc rom, i always let it run out and recharge to full.
Im thinking more and more of binning WP7 just a shame my device has afew knocks to it otherwise it would be trade in. Looks like its heading to the back of the draw.

Exactly the same as me, I'm running the unbranded euro HTC rom too.
Did your battery problems start after installing 7392?
One of the reasons I bought into WP7 was the hope of getting the updates and things improving. Never considered the possibility that updates could make things worse.
Ive only been running the update for a week and the battery wasnt that gr8 before hand but last night opened my eyes to how bad since this patch.
I would do a hard reset and see if that helps but as MS left out a way to back-up SMS im a little stuck.
How ever im feeling that wp7 is all its cracked up to be, looking at whats coming in mango is good but i feel the battery may suffer.
Since downgrading back to 7390 my battery life has returned to normal!
Hammered the phone with a good hour or calls today and even now the battery is not dead, it will last till going on charge at bed time.
What the hell is going on with 7392 then!?!
Did you hard reset?

No just downgraded via standard Zune option.
Just saw this update for my phone out and then saw this thread. Are others having the issue with the battery? I will gladly hold off on this update if it really does drain it that much.
Any other confirmations?
I can't imagine the Security update causes this, perhaps a new Radio is downloaded with the update?
I'm on Unbranded Euro ROM and the same OS version 7.0.7392.0 with Radio Software 5.54.09.21_22.33b.50.10U, can someone post their Radio from OS Version 7390?
P.S. I haven't actually noticed any Battery drain since the update. I cahrge every night from about 11pm - 7am and my phone will last untill I put it on charge again at the same times.

I updated mine yesterday and haven't noticed any difference in battery life.
I just uptaded, I will post results tomorrow

First day experience of mine,Battery is dead after 7392 update 15 minute talk 20 sms in 7 hours!I am going to downgrade tonight back previus Rom!
Yeah, I feel this thing too,
The battery are more faster draining than old in my HD7 (O2DE Rom).
Just play few game for a hour and my battery is lower than 20%.
I'm in the same boat...
After the update, not only is my battery draining faster, but my reception actually seems worse (subjective).
I hope we can find out why and get a fix for this sharpish as it's driving me nuts having to carry my charger around with me (quite a heavy user)...
So does anybody who's rolled/rolling back fancy posting their Radio versions to compare?
Hey guys How everyone doing?
I see that you guys dont got a Q&A Section over here, so I decided to drop this here. Today i'm heading over to the store to switch from Sprint to Verizon.Needless to say Sprint service has only gotten worse over the years. Been with them for almost 10 years now (be 10 yrs in Janurary). AnyWhoo, I got a couple of questions for you guys, pretty straight forward, and Sorry in advance if this was the wrong place for this. But basically im coming from the EVO 3D (EVO 4G Previous to that) and I understand that the Razor is being released in early November, But I need to switch today cause between the TErrible 3G, and Data and such, I need my phone for work. My Co-Worker has Verizon and tells me that his Data coverage is amazing. So im thinking of picking up the Bionic, seeing that its the latest and greatest out right now on Verizon, But Ive been reading around for the past 24hrs that alot of people have there 3G/4G signal just cut off. Now I dont really lose my 3G (5 miles north of Boston) here, but the data speeds are just so slow that I cant really do anything most of the time. I got ROOT and all of that good stuff of course, but trying all the different Tweaks and Radios and such can only help so much. So my Question is, Is the Bionic Plagued with losing its 3G/4G signal out of no where constantly? I figured I'd ask you guys before I did anything today. Thats the one thing that worrys the most. Of course im also worried about root and such, cause over at the EVO 3D DEV section we got some great DEVin going on right now, But I really gotta focus on more important things than that right now. Any advice would be great fellas! I really appreciate it, and once again SORRY if this was put in the wrong place

WOW.....Gee thanks for the help Brotha!!! that was so helpful in many ways. DO you really have that much trouble reading it? Jesus, DO you want me to add 10 periods between each word LOL?
I like my Bionic and all (and the coverage is certainly better than the ATT garbage I came from) but I would recommend seriously considering the Nexus Prime. (Screw the RAZR.) If you've been with Sprint for a decade, are you sure that you absolutely cannot wait another 2-4 weeks for a clean, unlockable phone?

well that was my original intention. But the one thing i was worried about was AVAILABILITY for the galaxy nexus. I figured id would have to be a member of verizon in order to pre-order the nexus. So I thought maybe ill get the bionic for now until the galaxy nexus came out. But things with sprint has just gotten to bad lately. Its a tough decision, but now u got me second guessing LOL. that may be the best thing i think. Thanks for the feedback!!!
This is just my experience, but I have noticed the data has been dropping a lot lately. I lost data yesterday, but after I turned the phone on the off it came back.
My only issue with doing that is when I power down & restart I lose apps, which gets old. Then I have to download all again.
Its frustrating paying $110+ a month for something that loses data & forces me to reinstall apps.

In. my opinion the bionic is a dirty phone and would recommend it to anyone the data is blazing fast and I very rarely have any data drops and I have to be in the middle of nowhere for that to happen. And with the fact that you can't add an extended battery to the razr this phone is just plain better.

But the data drops aren't from spotty network, they're from a goofy radio. So, to me that is a toss-up. You can live in a prime coverage area, like me, and still have issues. The upcoming patch is supposed to fix the problem on all phones, but I will believe it when I see it. MOT has already backpedaled on the bootloader issue, so I would not be surprised to see them do so on a 100% radio fix.
As I said, I would not even consider the RAZR. I replaced the battery on my iPhone six times (no kidding), so the idea of not being able to swap a batt without disassembling the handset drives me nuts, even if it does take less than 10 minutes.
If you are able to get a Bionic now and trade to a Prime when they come out, then you really have nothing to lose. For someone who does not have that option, though, waiting a few extra weeks would be advisable IMO.
Another vote for waiting for the Galaxy Nexus. I really like my Bionic, but Motorola has already said, by releasing the Razr, that the Bionic isn't its priority anymore, and given the number of issues many are having with the phone and the locked bootloader, I'm tempted to say that if you can wait and get the GNex, you should. My 14 days ran out before the GNex was announced, but otherwise, I would've made the jump.
Also, skip the Razr altogether. It's a slightly improved Bionic with no user-replaceable battery. Don't bother.
I made the switch from Sprint to Verizon in July (to lock in the unlimited data plan - had to pay an ETF for that but it was worth it - I had an Evo 4G). Service and speeds are amazing, but as other posters have stated, I get the data drops like once a day. Usually, a flip to Airplane mode and back fixes the problem. I am sure it is bad radio code, not a bad network.
I started with a Droid Charge through Costco with the hope of being able to swap it out for the Bionic. As luck would have it, Costco eagerly replaced the Charge with a Bionic for both me and my wife because the Charge had such crappy bluetooth that would drop all the time for many of their customers. There was no argument when we went back in.
Now Bionic: I love the Webtop mode and for that reason would probably stick with Motorola, but my work may be different than yours. I'm typically in an office setting that has a lot of network lockdowns. Having a 'second computer' over which my employer has no control is very nice.
My concerns regarding the Nexus are two-fold: 1) I don't know if they will use the same crappy file system that they used on the Charge or if Google had complete control over the software down to that level of detail. It could also be that ICS uses a whole new file system - I just don't know - I am only pointing it out as an area I would research if I were making the same purchase decision as you are.
2) Development for the Charge was limited. With Google's impending purchase of Moto, I expect accelerated development on Moto products.
Finally, with regards to the Razr: Cool, but no replaceable battery means no battery pulls when things go wrong. I stand taller than 4'8" so an extra 5mm of phone thickness in my pocket is not an issue.
Hi Jon,
I've had EVERY carrier over the past few years, and I can say, Verizon is by far the best. In todays day in age where data is everything... Verizon brings it. Even 3G I would still sometimes get 1.5mbps, and now with LTE 4G, its amazing.
The price of Verizon is kind of "Eh" but, when I'm sitting on the Naval base (which gets horrific signal) and I can still pull 10-15mbps down, I can say I'm one happy guy.
The only thing that concerns me about Verizon is their policies on things, ie: Bootloaders, Rooting, etc. If I were you. I'd wait until the Nexus becomes available. If you go on craigslist, there are people willing to sell their old phone PLAN to you, as in those old unlimited data ones. HIGHLY suggest going there. I have had friends do that recently with NO issues.
Either way, As much as I love Sprint's phones (EVO 3D being OC'ed to 1.8Ghz) Verizon's reception is incredible nationwide If you have any questions, PM me!
I just realized that I neglected to address your real question. I recently switched from AT&T to Verizon, and the difference in network has been night and day. I went from getting 100kbps down on a good day with AT&T to consistently getting 500kbps+ with 4GLTE, and I've only dropped one call in the month+ I've had the phone. Switching to Verizon was among my better decisions I've made lately.

I believe the Bionic is still a priority. They're advertising it during NFL games that it comes with free NFL network. The average user doesn't really care about a lot of what we talk about on here. Some people will prefer the bulk of the Bionic, and others will prefer the Razr.

I would definitely recommend waiting for both the razr and galaxy nexus to be released, then going to the store and giving 5 minutes to each phone. I like my bionic, but I regret not examining it more closely before buying it. But with that being said, the battery life on this is amazing with the extended battery, and that is a critical factor for most. How would you like to have a droid razr that only lasts half a day? Sure it looks pretty, but what's the point if it's off half the time. As for the galaxy nexus, samsung is on fire now, so I have no doubt that it'll be the best phone you can have.

The radio CAN go wonky, but it seems to be only when you are in a mediocre LTE area or otherwise are switching between LTE and CDMA connections. If stability is more important to you than speed, I've found that if I set my radio mode to CDMA only, the connection is rock solid. As an added plus, the battery lasts MUCH longer without the LTE radio going!
EDIT: Also, the speed is very acceptable, even on 3G/CDMA. I had a Sprint Photon 4G and 3G throughput often didn't break 200Kbps in either direction. With my Bionic, i regularly get 600Kbps+.
Dude I've had the same dilemma. After my fiasco with Epic 4g Touch with terrible reception and slow internet (where my EVO was doing just fine) I left Sprint and signed my soul out to Verizon.
I also couldn't wait for Galaxy Nexus which I'm gonna get eventually.
Now. I didn't want to get an expensive temporary phone so I went for LG Revolution. God I'm glad they have that 14 days exchange policy. What a piece of junk.
So now I've got Bionic and I'm temporarily happy.
Now the important stuff.
I drive truck all over the country and all I can say about Verizon coverage is wow. I don't know what a dropped call is and I can watch Hulu almost everywhere.
The infamous LOS happened to me every now and then on that POS Revolution (Stock unrooted). Now I read that this is happening on Bionic too. So it must be the network problem then. Nothing we can do about that I'm afraid.
It didn't happen yet on my new Bionic but I've gotten it 2 days ago.
Rooted and de-bloated today so we'll see.
BTW. I don't believe Galaxy Nexus will come out according to leaks. (11.10)
Similar leak said Motorola Razr will come before (10.27) and now it's for pre-order on VZ website saying "Will ship by 11.10.11.
I think Galaxy Nexus will follow that pattern and it will go on pre-order 11.10 and will start to ship 2-3 weeks from that date.
But I would be more than thrilled if I'm being wrong.

Same for me with the Samsung epic 4g touch. Just crap of a phone samsucks when it comes to udates on their firmware even my wife has the nexus s great software updates. Horrible firmware and software fixes from Samsung. Galaxy nexus will suffer from samsungs lack of updates for fixes and issues. Look at the Droid charge. I just switched from sprint 2 weeks ago and took over someones unlimited plan and bought my bionic happy now

The leak shows the release date for Razr as 10.27.11 (Engadget) and it became available for pre-order that date. (or was it 29th?) the same way it shows release date for Galaxy Nexus as 11.10.11.
By way of extrapolation, Galaxy Nexus will be availale for pre-order 11.10.11.
And again, I'd LOVE to be wrong.
Where is the data fix?? I heard from Verizon they were going to release a fix for 3/4g data going out by, where is it???? My data is sometimes out for half a day!! I live in CT and coverage here is great, at least on my old Droid one.
Sorry for the rant, can someone please catch me up with what's up if anything???

Might want to re-title your post. You gave me a burst of false hope there for a minute.

Well they are obviously working on it as there have been many leaked OTA files. There was 5.5.893, 5.6.8933, 5.7.893, 5.7.894 and most recently 5.8.894. I installed the first three of those and all of them really improved my data issues. It's not perfect yet, but it seems to get better and better. I think by the time the final OTA is released and pushed out to phones, it will solve the data issue, hissing headphone issue, camera issue and improve battery life.
Good luck.

Man, this is exactly what turned me to hating Samsung/AT&T. This is the same crap they pulled with the Captivate. "Oh yeah, you'll get that update in October"
Thought I was able to breathe easy since I went with a Moto phone this time around. That they wouldn't screw the users like Samsung was. Guess not.
Guess I shouldn't expect ICS before 2013 either
FWIW, I had severe issues dropping data while on a road trip and at one point my phone would only connect when 4G was available. Before the road trip I was having issues losing connection with both 4G/3G. Long story short, I called cust service and was eventually xferred to the 4G dept. They pushed a "hybrid" PRL to my phone that was supposed to help pick up older Alltel towers, my phone has been pretty much flawless ever since then. And this was over 2 months ago.
At&t updated a list for devices getting ICS. The Thrill is not on the list so im wondering if it's a no-go.
http://phandroid.com/2012/03/22/att-lists-10-more-devices-to-get-ice-cream-sandwich-including-the-motorola-atrix-4g/

And by the time they do, I'm going to have upgraded to a new phone. NON LG, and possibly non-Att...

Besides that,this phone is a battery killer,maybe it'll get a bit better with 2.3.I had it for 4 days.
Yes lg support has told me many timds bug the secound or third quater were getting ics
Maybe Rogers will get it when the Europe version comes out but for at&t to release it at the same time will be a miracle. I plan on getting the One when it come out.

Im getting 14-20 hours on normal use with stock battery, which isnt bad, becasue stock is only 1500 mAH.
Alot of people make a claim for this batter, but its really the stock choice LG provided, its a small batter for a smart phone, especially a dual core phone.
I am runing 2.3.5
Hi,
After seeing reports of everyone's awesome battery life, mine seems terrible - it will only last about 12 hours with 2 hours screen on time, just Web browsing and listening to music really. I noticed my signal strength seems poor most of the time, but I have been in rural locations so that isn't necessarily unexpected.
I bought the phone from Fido (Rogers) but unlocked it to use on koodo, that shouldn't make a difference should it?
I'm thinking of sending it for repair /replacement but I really don't want to as my fall back phone is a pos Galaxy Ace II. There shouldn't be much crap running in the background and I've tried a factory reset so I'm not sure what else to do?
Return it.

Install betterbatterystats and see whats causing the drain. Post some screenshots here and maybe we can help you
I had really bad battery on my first X. Called Motorola and got a brand new replacement and have excellent battery now using the same apps. Just get it replaced.

OK here are some screens. The signal is terrible for a lot of it but that doesn't seem to be the problem, just that it doesn't have enough juice.
I probably will return it, which is going to suck. It's an awesome phone otherwise.
I'm using an unlocked Rogers Moto X with Koodo. Having great battery life for the most part. I do find its better running 4.4 (using the AT&T 4.4 release) however to install it you would need to unlock your bootloader which voids the warranty. Cycle the battery another day or two, if that makes no difference then the battery may in fact be bad.

I would like to install 4.4, but as you said it will screw me over unfortunately. I've had the phone 2+ weeks now, I've only just got home to do anything about it so it should have had plenty of time to settle in. Looks like a trip to Fido is in order!

OK here are some screens. The signal is terrible for a lot of it but that doesn't seem to be the problem, just that it doesn't have enough juice.
I probably will return it, which is going to suck. It's an awesome phone otherwise.

You surely should return it, mine lasts much longer with harder use
Do you have root? Try this:

The install better battery stats or gsam and try to figure it out. If you're running up to the end of your return period, then I guess you should exchange it.
I don't believe that phones have "bad" battery life; you just have to find out what's cause the problem in your particular case.
I am getting similar results all of a sudden. Stock not rooted. I get about 2 hours of screen on time with about 13 hours uptime
Do [either of] you have location reporting on? Look at notro's screenshots, those consistent wake blue slivers "look" like location reporting...
I'm also getting results like these. I got this phone on Craigslist, so I don't know exactly how to go about returning it. I was thinking about sending it back to Motorola since the phone is still under the 1 year warranty. I tried chatting online with Motorola customer service, but they just gave me some tips on how to improve battery life. Any ideas? Thanks.

Post #11 is correct, turn off google location reporting. Turned mine off 2 days ago and the battery is back to where it was with 4.2
