Aside from Netflix, does anyone who has updated see significant advantages to doing so? Is it noticeably better?
(I may not bother, as my phone is working fine, and I have no need for netflix...)
thanks.

in addition to netflix, from what i can tell, 4.24 also fixes pandora and compass functions.
And battery drain.
Put it this way, if HTC is putting out an update just a week after the last one, that means they f-ed something up, and scrambled to fix it. I would do it.
Yes ohhhhh the battery drain. I am running mikgv2.1 and they have incorporated the latest ota into te Rom including the kernel. Today is my first full day and I am immediatly seeing better battery life. No doubt worth it.
My Pandora works fine, so I guess maybe my battery life would improve.
I am tempted just to scratch it and get the 3d next week.

Pandora kept pausing on its own if it wasn't the focused app when 4.22 came out. Not sure if it was a rom or app issue or whether pandora had been updated.

Yes, absolutely.

Definitely fixed more than netflix. As mentioned above, compass and streaming audio issues got fixed. Also, the Chase bank app works again (it didn't work on 2.22).
Be aware that it breaks 802.11n support so you will have to stay on b/g support until the devs figure out how to bring it back (the previous wifi n fix no longer works.).
I know my unit was restarting once or twice a day, after I updated. Never did before, and now hasn't "sense" the latest update.

Dude its an update. Updates usually means shiznit works more better. So why would you not just get the update? That's just my 2 cents. +1 for improper grammar? Haha

I am running a lot less memory usage, too, than I was pre update. Almost 40 megs less.

Ok, I put the update on, a Mik ROM with Sense 3.0 and now battery life stinks.
I might have to try the bare bones update now...

Did you also update to the newest Radio/PRI/WIMAX combo as well? That will definitely make a difference.

How do I update Radio/PRI/WIMAX on a non-rooted Evo? Want to do it on my gf's Evo.
For the record,I'm still running 3.26.651.6 , and have flashed to every new thing to come along and always wind up going back after a day or two.

Brian, why?
I am now running MikG. 2.15 which incorporates Sense 3 and 4.24 and it is working like a charm. Fast, stable, and great battery life. Yesterday after 18 hours of heavy use I had 28% battery remaining.
Maybe resetting battery stats and such did the trick.
I get decent battery life and everything works,only upgrades I keep are radios,wimax etc.

I'm new to Xda but not to droid forums.
I just wanted to say wow! What a difference between the two. People are talking about stuff for the droid x and I'm totally lost. That's awesome!!
Can someone point me to where I can get a few questions answered about CM9?

Thanks. That's where I got all my info before I switched to CM9. After week of using it, I'm switching back to stock. The main reason is because the battery life sucks even with all syncing off and touch sounds and a few other things done to try to conserve battery.
My battery was at 40% when I left work yesterday with only light Facebook and web browsing.
Also some apps not working very good on it is another reason I'm switching back.

ICS roms haven't been perfected yet, but if your looking for a good user experience with decent battery life, you should try DefX MIUI.

yeah, wizard's MIUI has been the best for awhile now in terms of great battery life and full functionality. i've tried the ICS roms out there for the droidx but battery life was abysmal. i like having the latest android system but not if you have to trade great battery life for poor battery life.
I am running cm9 with a build date of April 24th (build number: IMM76D).
And i love it. It is super fast. the only complaint i have is that when long pressing home to get to the recent apps list it takes about 1-2 secs. Other than that its great. everything works except video (sometimes) and panoramic shots. the battery life isnt too bad. but i have had bad battery problems for a while.
I've been running the latest nightly (20120722) for a few days now with less than stellar battery life. It seems that everytime I run an AOSP rom the main battery culprits appear to be cell and phone idle, where's with a Sense rom, it' the screen. I have a relatively new battery. I'd say moderate use, typically.
Anyone have suggestions on getting better battery life with CM7? I'm running the stock kernel at 245/800, ondemand, deadline. Also running V6 supercharger at 5.
Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I've gotten 12+ hours today of cm7.2 7/15 nightly and barely at 50%
Did lots of recordings and such.
Dunno
I don't use the v6 script, or do any mods at all.
Just run it as is.
Stock battery too.

Yeah I've gone back to 7/15 to see if it's any better. I seem to remember it being better; I'll report back later today. Still curious why cell standby is the main battery eater on CM7 (or AOSP ROMs in general) as compared with say, SSX or newSENSE, which was the display...

Aosp shows true signal where Sense won't. So AOSP having a cell standy over display sounds about right. Sense always thinks it has signal and AOSP has no signal thanks to sprint. In my area Sprint blows, so that's what I *think

This is better.. I went back to the previous nightly (20120715) for a few days now. Still moderate use.
I'm currently running the stock kernel at 245/1.21, ondemand, deadline. Without V6 supercharger and I didn't flash the ICS theme either.
Perhaps the 20120722 nightly did not play well with my device.

That is a lot better! Glad it's working better for you now.

If V6 SuperCharger is not setup correctly, or the setting is to high. Your Battery life can take a hit.
Hey guys... Ive been running ROMs for awhile now on my lg g2 and have noticed I've been getting rather horrible battery life since... I'm just barely getting 3 hours of on screen time when I ran both pac-man ROM and my current AICP which is AOKP based... On my lg g2 running stock ROM I was getting 7 hours on screen time easily at the least six... I feel like I have a droid razr again XD the ROM is stable tho so the buttery smoothness kind of makes up for it... Anyone else having the same problem? Any solutions? Any help is greatly appriciated

Hi Guys
I wanted to try cyanogenmod 11 for the lg g2 i just wanted to know if the snapshots are stable enough to use as a daily driver or should i just flash the stable 10.2? and how is the battery life on the phone better or worse than stock? and also does cyanogenmod improve the gaming performance on the LG G2 does it give more FPS than the stock LG rom?
Thanks in advance!
Not worth (for me)

I recently installed the last nightly... Coudn't stay with it for more then a day... my BT didn't work and in the first try the camera FC'ed... Besides that I use the 120fps recording from G Pro 2... That isn't available on CM
^^^ Weird.
I'm using the latest nightly (well from 2 nights ago) on my D801 and I am having zero issues so far.
battery life seems about the same as Cloudy Pro 2 and stock.
performance is slightly better, but as far as games go, I haven't noticed a difference.
everything seems to be working just fine for me....camera works great, BT has been rock solid all day, not a single reboot/FC. absolutely no complaints....I'm surprised because i have heard some not so good things about CM on this phone (only had phone for 2 weeks now)

CM 10.2 was solid but every CM 11 nightly or snapshot that I tried gave me crashes, reboots and FC's. I personally wouldn't use anything but a stable build for a daily driver.
No issues. The latest nightly seemed to fix the WiFi connectivity issue and no longer need to go into airplane mode. I do have crash / reboot at least once a day though.
I have a LS980 and could never get the CM11 to boot. Once flashed the phone always booted to fastboot. I know on other AOSP ROMs the LS980 has glitchy problems that other G2 phones do not. Problems related to bluetooth and wifi and a kernel problem that causes reboots and Andriod.UI crashes.
Maybe you have a LS980 and that would explain a lot?
Not cyanogen but go with slim ROM you will be happy
