Guest asteinar Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 has anyone else noticed that the battery life seems to have taken a hit since the move to 4.2? i cant think what exactly is causing it though. I have the same experience. Charging the phone more frequently to be sure that I have enough battery. I'm not sure what it is cause by, but I have fixed the sync to not be syncing as often. Unsure of this has actually had any result for longer battery life. However, I also experience some problems with sending text messages (SMS). I'm not sure what this is caused by.

Guest Dieter Schroeder Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Battery life has dramatically decreased since 4.2. My Nexus doesn't survive a day at work. I guess, it's because of attempts to log into 3g. That was always a pity at my workplace, but it is more worse since 4.2. Has anybody an alternative but smooth running kernel? I used Franco's but it lags as hell. I also tested Trinity's which is unusable. And Facelock gets always baked in, even when disabled in the kitchen.

Guest comicbookguy Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 (edited) The kitchens now include an option to enable NFC when the screen is off. P Excellent! Will this be coming to Nexus 4 too? Got my first tags last night and It did seem odd that a tag couldn't be used to wake the device....

Guest EddyOS Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 I, personally, prefer to flash the radio manually. But if you're coming from another JB 4.2 ROM you'll already have the latest radio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kevin Doerr Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 It's been a while since I've downloaded the new version of your ROM, and I noticed that Teamviewer Quicksupport is no longer available?
