What's better the Droid RAZR or the RAZR maxx?
I've been Supercharged and Gingervolted!

Ever thought about the rezond?
Sent from my Dinc... I mean Rezound

Yes. But I wanted to go back to the Droids again.
I've been Supercharged and Gingervolted!

I have done a lot of research and I think the Razr Maxx is the way to go. It is the only 4G Big-Screen Android that comes with a battery that will last all day without charging.

They're basically the same phone except the battery, and now there is a $118 kit for the Razr to adapt the MAXX battery, so why not save the money and get the MAXX right off the bat.
Or get the last developer phone Verizon will likely every get.
Galaxy all the way.

Rezound!

Tell him to use the face unlock. Or there's a pattern or pin# method too. Yeah I've ran multiple benchmarks and stock vs. vs stock, I always beat the nexus. Definitely happy with this purchase.

Yeah I'm testing it now

It slows down the internet, apps are taking very long to start loading web data.
But when it starts, it's fine.

Seems to be eating battery even more.
Also it requires location services to be on which I had off by default.
Will give it another couple of days before uninstalling it.

I removed it, I save more battery myself. :thumbdown:

I removed it as well. Is rubbish in my opinion.

Didn't see any help. Maybe worse.

Derp...
Usually, my phone lasts until the end of the day (about 14~18 hours)...
I was hoping this was gonna be better, even if it were just a beta...

I honestly didn't notice a difference with it on my AHD. I got my N4 in the mail friday so I'm I'm giving it a shot on that. The N4 has pretty good battery life by default though, who knows.

BatteryGuru actually eats up more battery life than it helps by waking up your device to change settings. Greenify does what this app is supposed to do and then some. Allows you to pick and choose which apps go into hibernation on screen off and doesn't periodically wake your phone.

I've been on vacation and tweaking my LGOG. Now that I'm back in town I'll take another crack at it. Miss my AHD but the trade up to the Optimus G was definitely worth it. Still gonna show you guys some love since I'm a hardcore Motorola fan. I'm actually working on porting qslide for AHD stock based ROMs.

Can someone refresh me on the odexed vs. deodexed differences?

Click to expand...

Odexed is pure stock. More difficult to mod unless the dev puts out both versions. It is supposedly faster also. Never could tell a difference in speed. But I like to stay close to stock so I always run odexed and odex all of my work. Deodexed is good for modding and theming since you only have to do things once. It is also a little smaller in size. Again supposedly a little slower, like starting apps. Also more difficult to get things working right at times. Like Google Wallet working on my Odexed Rom but not on Deodexed.
I am sure if you Google them you will find much better answers than what I have provided.

This bloody thing didn't save anything really, just annoyed me by turning off things i set to autosync and etc. Used to use it on my S3 when it first leaked months ago and broomed it fast when i noticed i wasn't receiving emails and such anymore. Apparently it turns off what it "thinks" is not necessary, like email accounts i set to check every hour. After a few days of no email, which i found weird, i went into my email settings and this silly app had turned off sync and set it to manual amongst other annoyances. I never really noticed any battery savings anyway.

4.3 leaked/in testing Galaxy S4

Seems as Nexus owners we're not the first to get the update this time. It could turn out to be an elaborate fake but probably genuine as Google are an experimenting company and have released two flagship devices with a vanilla Android option (although they're not "nexus"). From what I've read there doesn't appear to be any big changes (if any actually visible) and more fixes/optimisations.

Flashed it on my GS4 and working like a charm (and it's the international version of course). No root yet, so i'll switch back to 4.2.2 to get my apps lol (can't restore through TB Pro duh).
It's just a leak so don't worry about it. The Nexus devices will definitely get the 4.3 first.

Cool, I'm another few months away from a handset upgrade and so it definitely makes these phones an even better proposition, having access to stock android goodness. Was impressed seeing how quickly someone had put a vanilla 4.2.2 ROM together for the HTC One, then seen this and was very surprised.
Its good to see really as it shows that Google and the handset makers are finally getting why people like android so much and that is the option of choice and customisation. It may not be the exact reason for doing so but they must be conscious of it. As the last I/O conference showed, it was very developer orientated

I switched back to TW ROM for now. I found the camera app of TW to be of better quality and also if I have the S4, might as well use the features included in it.

So basically 4.3 has very little changes?? Mostly stuff no one will ever see or notice. In other words a placebo update basically to keep flash happys content until key lime comes out! LOL
Yay!

Majority of what is updated won't be frontend. Just additions to the internal workings of android. Maybe some slimmed down code for some Google system apps and such.

Oh yeah, battery life on 4.2.2 is soooooo terrible /sarcasm

Has anyone else noticed the 4.3 update made your one slow ? and xda app is crashing im headed back to 4.1.2 until the bugs are worked out

It seems the same to me. Not slower but not faster either. I haven't tried the xda app because I use tapatalk

Crap. I was hoping for better news. HTC promised a fix and apparently delivered a half baked version of a fix. Less tint isn't a fix. Thanks for sharing though.

Mine runs better but then again i am still locked. Judging by the OP going back to 4.1 i bet he flashed it on his own, which probably accounts for a large amount of the issue.

Mine is noticeably faster. The xda app has been god awful since the last update, so that is not due to 4.3.

Mine runs great. XDA app sucks. I'm stock unrooted and locked so yeah.
Sent from my HTCONE using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

No problems here! enjoying the update! Also not rooted or unlocked.

Don't use the XDA app, but everything seems good for me. Completely stock, not rooted. Longest I've ever kept a phone this way, and if I can find a way to tether without root, I don't know that I'll feel the need to for a long while.

i didn't flash the update i went back to stock and then updated to 4.3 ... im s-off so i just went back to 4.1.2

I'm not rooted or unlocked. Never have been in this phone. I'm noticing faster than normal battery drain and a laggier scrolling experience if you will. Phone still flys, but not what I expected.
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app

No issues. Actually much better as far as power saving. Much faster. More responsive. Sea never crashes for me. Stock unrooted not s off. Just updated. I haven't found one real need to s off yet.

My battery drained faster today then normal by about 2 hrs
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app

did it last afternoon, and then did a factory reset. I didn't see any power drain problem, maybe even better, but the signal strength seems to be lower, which according to others might just been the data signal strength.

I noticed the laggy scroll too.. and transitions back to the home screen

I'm having an annoying issue. I keep my phone on vibrate most of the time but like to turn off the vibrate function in apps like Twitter, Facebook, Gmail, etc so I don't get a vibration when someone tweets me, emails me, etc. Since the update, it still vibrates when the box isn't checked. Can anyone try to replicate? Thanks

No problems here either. Runs great. Stock, locked, and unrooted.
