OTA update issues - G2 and Desire Z General

so i did get the update and dont know what is going on with the update. i get now horrible low download speed, most of the time the phone is on edge after the update before the update i had the H almost all the time on the same location. this is reason why im posting this from my laptop and not my G2 since it takes minutes to load a thread. so the question is what did it do to my device?

i manualy updated my phone and i do get H in my house now and full bars where i only had 2, one thing i did notice is that i know get g or no sign @ all from time to time, doesnt seem to effect my reseption thou. didn't see any diffrence on download speed, didnt get better or worse

well it sounds to me like you got the opposite of what the OTA was supposed to so, it was to improve the reboots bug and radio updates for better cell reception, the only thing I can think of is backup your data and run a factory reset on your phone and see if that brings things back to normal or improves anything, best of luck.

I'm glad I'm not the same.. I do notice some signal getting worst after the OTA before I was getting FULL bars at home and now its jumping from edge to 2 bar on H..

Anyone noticing horrible battery life after the OTA? I used to be able to go an entire day with normal use and still be around 40-50% when I plugged it in at night, It's been un-plugged for ~ 5 hours today and is already at 46%

Hmmm I didnt get the update or any notification of one. Can some1 tell me how I can get it?

Strange, I'm seeing the opposite. Since the update, I'm playing with it more and it seems the battery lasts twice as long.

I haven't even gotten it OTA yet, phone says system is up to date when in fact it isn't. Going to wait a bit longer, if I don't get it I'll install it manually.

Just FYI, I haven't re-rooted since OTA so no overclock or anything. Running bone stock.

Well I downloaded the ota myself, and in terms of reboots, I have had none that I didn't cause myself. I am still running oc @ 1.44 and very smoothly ( I think these phones were meant to run oc'd).
The only issue that I have had is that my screen does not rotate unless I open the keyboard...a bit annoying actually. Oh I also notoced that my location for

Sprint 2.1 Update issues

I upgraded to the Sprint stock 2.1 update a few days ago. My battery sucks ass, and the whole thing is just slow. My battery lasts maybe 1/2 to 3/4 of a day and anytime I make or take a call or msg/email, the phone freezes for a few seconds at a time.
I've looked on here for answers, but it's all scattered and I can't find much that directly addresses it.
Any and all help would be useful. I'm sure rooting and trying something better would be better, but the stock working without issues would be nice. Thanks.
Rooting is out of the question for you since you upgraded stock 2.1 As far as the battery is concerned you should be able to access your battery stats in Settings>About phone> Battery > Battery use. Of course, you should check the battery use after a days use, so basically charge it to full and let it run down then check the stats on the battery and find out what is using it.
The post the results here and we can assist you further.
I think you will see the google maps issue. I looked and found that it was using 91%. I wish I could adb and pull it out...lol
btw I was quite aware of the impact installing the update.
dont worry, the 2.1 stock rom is like a red headed step child, eventually its going to get beaten so dont worry you will be Adb'ing tons of stuff out in the future lol.
So any reasons as to why it runs slow. Is anyone else having this problem?
I have stock/official 2.1 on mine....and mine works faster actually...my messaging client is wicked fast than in 1.5 .....browsing is faster too...overall the lag level is gone down for me.....
Oh and reg battery...I improved my battery by disabling "always on mobile network connection"...that helped the battery a lil bit...
I easily get a day out of my battery...
You should try to reflash and see if it gets better..

Ditto, I dont know if Im a big fan of this update ..
WOW, i have the leaked 2.1 from fresh on my hero and i have no lag and great battery life. Try another radio as i found the new stock one to be pretty bad.
I updated my girlfriend's Hero to 2.1 a few days ago, and she has been less than thrilled with how it is performing and wishes she could go back to 1.5.
She says the battery seems to drain faster, and she has been having issues with the browser (having trouble selecting text boxes because it takes two taps now due to zoom in, regular freeze ups). The messaging icon also keeps reporting that she has one message, only for her to click on it and have nothing.
One thing that hopefully will help though was turning off Latitude. She was just nosing around in Maps one day and activated it but couldn't find where to kill it. Google awkwardly buried the setting to turn it off completely under the "privacy" menu (the forth option).
What's bad is that I tried to save her the trouble of dealing with ROMs and roots and spared her Hero from my experimenting, but so far the official 2.1 seems to have as many issues as a buggy ROM would. It's very frustrating.

Random Reboot in 2.3.3, not in a call.

I have a non-rooted stock NS on 2.3.3 and the phone was just sitting on my desk doing nothing when I felt it vibrate. I picked it up to check for a text or email, but the phone was instead rebooting.
Has this happened to anyone else on this build? I have had the phone reboot while in call before, but never just sitting there in standby.
This happens to me in 2.3.2. I will have the phone just sitting there and it will randomly just be rebooting. Its not frequently enough to bother me yet but it happens on and off.

same here on 2.3.2.... thats why I wanted 2.3.3. Ill wait patiently for the nightlies to include it.
happened to me many many times on 2.3.2, but not 2.3.3. knock on wood
Happened to me...2 times already...never on 2.3.2...im rooted though
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
This happened to me like 2x a day with 2.3.2.
Hasnt happened once yet with 2.3.3.
I never got reboots in-call, though I did get them a couple times when I overloaded the phone's RAM.
Mine just rebooted in 2.3.3. I'm also getting "Can't connect to camera" anytime I use the Amazon barcode app which worked perfectly in 2.3.2.
Haven't tried the new update yet
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I never had the in call rebooting, just overloading reboots on my nexus s. I have yet to have one since the update, but it has only been a little over 24 hours. Then again this has been happening to me since updating my nexus one be it stock, rooted, or CM6 FRF91 and FRG83D or any form of gingerbread I've used on it. The only thing I can say it it started in froyo for me.

on the new update havent had any issues.
I had the random reboot in 2.3. 2 and thought the update had fixed it.
Unfortunately it did not - i noticed the phone rebooting yesterday.
The camera has crashed twice so far, requiring a battery pull.
I am stock, non-rooted.
I also get random failed downloads and failed market updates.
Starting to get frustrating.

With all the problems you stated, it is obvious that ur rom is corrupt. I suggest you to back up all your settings, wipe everything and then reinstall a rom .

Nope.
It happens to 2 Nexus S, both stock, not even rooted. One barely has additional apps, too.
I think a lot of people don't notice the reboot, because it is silent, so if you are not looking at your phone exactly at the particular time it reboots, you wouldn't know it.
The inability to dial at times is much more annoying, IMO: you punch in a number, the phone tries to dial, then hangs up. At the same time, there are 3-4 signal bars. When it happens, it normally takes several tries to get it to work.
The crashing camera also doesn't happen every time, but it is definitely a new bug in 2.3.3.
Just had my first random reboot on 2.3.3 while phone was sat on my keyboard while at my PC.
Rooted detoxed Rom stock
My 2.3.3 phone went into the weird "Dim Screen Reboot Screen" reboot at some point during the night last night. I was late for work because the alarm clock didn't go off (I know, I know...don't depend on a cell phone alarm clock)
I'm about done with this phone. And Android. Anyone wanna buy my NS? Dead serious.

I am still hopeful, but I am losing some patience with Android.
The platform seems to be all about selling the newest hardware, but the user experience is definitely below that of the iPhone. I keep hoping that the next Android OS upgrade will close the gap, but....
The iPhone 5 will have 4" screen, with Apple's better screen aspect ratio. If it only did Flash....
Anyway, the Nexus S is really the best user experience Android has to offer, and it's overall fine. Except when it acts like WM6.

EF02 Bug Thread

Doesn't look like there's one of these yet, so I'll start.
-Potential speed issues
-SOME slow rotation issues - Mine is working fine, YMMV
-Can't make up its mind if it wants to be on the EF02 or EF10 modem
-Battery Meter something something (can't duplicate)
-Battery life blows (YMMV) - I've uninstalled several Samsung apps and disabled logging (*#9900#) and I'm getting half-decent life - I charge throughout the day but I'd say it's comparable to previous Froyo builds
-Hardware keyboard still sucks, maybe harder
-Touch screen sensitivity - I'm not experiencing this, but YMMV. I've found sometimes using crappy cables causes weird touch screen issues.
-Various and sundry GPS complaints (I'm using the EF10 modem, not having any problems so far)
-USB connects and disconnects repeatedly when attached to computer, charging, playing media (at least, that seems to cause it on mine)
Begin griping.

Both my 3G and 4G are a bit slow, 4g is half of what it was this morning, but it seems to be normal mid-day drag in my dense urban hellhole.
Someone in the other EF02 thread said they updated their firmware and it changed the modem to EF10. Maybe that'll help the speeds.

MX battery life?

Hi! I got my MX couple of months ago, and I can tell I love it. Anyways the only things I wasnt happy with were the battery life and reception, and so I updated my phone's flyme os yesterday. (from 1.0.3 to 1.1.1)
I assumed the update would fix the issues ( as I think it did for the reception ) but the battery seems to be even more horrible after the update.
It seems that after the update my MX didnt even completely charge up. I put my phone on the charger at around 2:30 and unplugged it at 13:30, so it was on power for about 11 hours, but it didnt even charge itself completely in addition to the fact that it stopped actually charging at around 8 o clock as we can clearly see from the "today" screenshot.
Then comparing it to the "yesterday" screenshot with 1.0.3 we can tell it charged itself up completely.
Ive got the new 2core model with the updated 1700 mah battery (which should have the best battery life of all of the mx models) and this makes me wonder what is the battery like on the other mx's if this is normal. And yes my phone was showing the charging animation on the screen during the time I mentioned earlier in the message.

1.0.3 here, quad core model, my battery is fine, gets me over a day with normal use.
However I admit that it could be better.
Its also well known that 1.1.1 contained a bug that ate battery, so stay away from that firmware.

My MX arrives this week and I'll be measuring the battery carefully to see if I can't find a replacement. (Yes, I realize it's not supposed to be "user replaceable", but the teardowns confirm that it is if you've got the patience and dedication. Here's hoping there is a higher-capacity battery in the same form factor.) Apps are nice, but more juice is better.

Hehe that's true. I use 1.1.5 and it feels pretty good.
1.1.5 is nice, however there is a bug in android terminal emulator.
The osk wont work until you change the input type setting to word based.
I also suggest prerooting the image, Ubuntu works nicely on it too.

LRX21Q Improvements

So, I manually flashed the recent OTA. Felt like sharing what I have noticed.
For one thing, EVERYTHING is snappier. Going into recent apps is fast, home screen and apps don't take forever to load. That's a definite improvement. If it changes after running for awhile, I'll update.
Google Now's Always On voice recognition now works. I couldn't get it to work while away from the Google Now launcher before the update.
Uncertain about battery consumption with browsers yet. I'm hopeful, and the back of my tablet not being a toaster oven all the time while browsing on Xda gives me hope, but again, this is me just being hopeful.
Nothing for enabling the notification LED yet. Weird.

Thanks for the impressions. Hopefully the excessive power usage while using browser is fixed or will be soon.
I will note though that even though it shouldn't need to be used to avoid using Chrome, I think that using Tapatalk to browse XDA is a better experience. IMO, of course.

I've been testing battery life today in combination with the chrome beta browser. Where I used to get 4/5 hours of sot with a single charge I'm now at 4.15 minutes of sot with 52% of battery left.
The new update has done wonders for the n9 and it just shows how much lollipop is still in it's infancy and still needs some updates to get everything sorted out. I'm sure it's the same for the Nexus 6.

IS this refresh the re-draw of the launcher when turning the device orientation in an app and then exiting?

I think he is referring to the re-draw that seems to occur randomly when returning back to the home screen. Based on the impressions I may just flash the factory image to LRX21Q if these improvements are widespread. I still haven't received the OTA and can't sideload it because my tablet is still on the pre-release BL for some reason.

Sadly, WiFi 802.1x auth still doesn't work (PEAP) and the "Sign-in to Wifi network" screen is still blank for me. (Tested with Cisco Wireless LAN Controller at work.)

Was never a problem with my nexus 9. Working flawless.
It feels faster for sure, doesn't seem to get as hot either but maybe it does.
Yes I definitely see the improvement. I was one of the first buyers on the first day. But the unit I got has defected NFC chip. I returned it and got a replacement. Latest update definitely fixed the stutters and lags. I can vow for this.

Is this under heavy usage?
Overheating and Screen Flickering
Do you think that the overheating issue near the camera and the issue where the screen is flickering when the device is not at full brightness, can be fixed by a software update or a firmware update?

Just a heads-up, this OTA provides a VERY significant performance improvement - there was a Kernel regression that they fixed on this build regarding memory cgroups. Its very noticeable while using the tablet with this new patch.
I haven't noticed a difference yet but I didn't do s full wipe when I flashed.
