Ics Update

[Paul_Aris]

Well it only took maybe another 20 minutes and I was good to go. I am not sure why everyone gets so excited about a software update. Mine seems to use more battery, keyboard is smaller and darker which increases the amount of mistakes while typing. Still too new to find all the issues.

I had to do a factory reset and a one-step-root again, as I forgot to voodoo my root, but now my battery life is amazing and the update seems totally worth it.

If you aren't super pleased with this update then I recommend a factory reset and see how you feel when you're running again.

agreed. You can also use ics keyboard' found in play store. U can change the theme of keyboard, change the keyboard height, and vibration and sounds, Among other things.

I'm using SwiftKey and it's great too.

Anyone noticing ics decreasing ur battery rapidly?

I've been complaining about that since I got the update. It's crazy. And I've got the extended battery.

Sometimes it gets a little warm, but not bad

couldn't agree more.

Have you guys tried a factory reset? That will many times fix these types if issues.

You know I'm a retail manager and savor my time off. If I had to do a factory reset every time it's been recommended, it would chew up a couple of my days off just getting the phone set back up to the way I want it. I'll live with it because I'm buying the galaxy note 2. I hate to leave motorola, but they don't listen to customers. One of the biggest complaints a moto customer has is the horrible camera in their phones. I was looking forward to a great improvement in the maxx hd but it didn't happen. Then there's the os upgrades. Moto's phones are made to operate on 1 system. When I had my DROID X, I loved that phone. It was fast for the time, had really good battery life. But the camera was horrible, and when I got the gingerbread update, it ruins the phone. It slowed it down to a crawl. Even after 3 factory resets. So it's time for a change. Goodbye moto, hello samsung.

Well to be fair it took a little getting used to and I am still not used to it. It does give the phone a more modern feel. This is the first droid that I have kept stock and so far it has been paying off. I have had less issues and less stability problems with my bionic than any other phone owned. If I do a factory reset what do I loose and have to reset up?

You lose all data on your internal SD card.

Have fun. Hope you like crappy radios and poorly constructed devices.
