It's been really bad. I have it on the charger now and that doesn't even counteract it as it continues to discharge during use.

Wow. I wonder if you will need to retrain the phone and battery by taking it down to 15% , turn the phone off , and keep it off and charge with supplied wall charger to 100% to re calibrate the phone to read your battery level. Seems like that's a false reading. I can't imagine you used up that much battery that quick.

I hope that's the case. I'm going to shut it down and charge it now.

Good luck. Make sure it is the charger supplied with the phone. If you are still having trouble later, contact FoxKat. He is a battery guru.

Re; battery life.

You have probably been using you phone a lot more exploring new features so your battery life will probably be low. Looks like your screen is taking up 70%....

Definitely. But for it to continue to discharge while on the charger is crazy.

On the nexus there was a feature to make people have bulging eyes or pinch their head in during real-time video. Does the RAZR ics have this feature?

Did that help or are you draining at the same rate? A poster on another thread said that 3g only is not an option with the upgrade and the LTE is on draining the battery. I would make sure you use Smart Actions to turn off data whenever wifi is available. Wifi will save your battery and work better then 4g.

It's still draining way faster than with GB. I've been at home the entire time were I always have 4G. My battery has been fine on GB without having to utilize smart actions.

More than 25% of the battery is already gone in less than an hour with normal use.

Verizon going to have to upgrade all you Razr folks to Maxx's.

ICS is great on this phone. I think pairing it up with Apex launcher makes it so much smoother also.

My preferred network came as "global" by default and still remained on 4G. I just changed it to LTE/CDMA. Let's see if that helps.

Keep us informed. I think there are a few others with this same concern that will like to know if it helps.

Slightly off topic but should you always only use the supplied charger, or just when doing the 15% thing?

I believe you should always, but I have to admit there are times when I haven't.

Here is a thread that talks about this very subject.
