| Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | ACTPW | 7/28/12 10:04 AM | Unfortunately, the battery life of my Nexus S (GT-i9020T) is pretty bad since an OTA upgrade to Jelly Bean 4.1.1. Battery draining to 35% within 4h with just occasional e-mail check. Before a two-step upgrade yesterday from 2.3 (I went back to it an |
| Re: Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | Paladin_Andrei | 7/30/12 11:48 AM | I have the same problem: Nexus S with 4.1.1, the battery is dead in 8-9 hours. Android OS is taking up 75-80% of the battery, screen 10-15%, other processes don't really matter (under 3%, under 10% summed up). The signal was good all day, WI-FI, blue |
| Re: Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | Paladin_Andrei | 7/30/12 11:50 AM | Oh, and before the update i was on 4.0.4, after 12-14 hours of usage (usually heavier than now) i had 60-40% of battery charge left. |
| Re: Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | ACTPW | 7/30/12 12:08 PM | Battery at 58% after 4h and essentially no use. I saw a suggestion to turn off Google Now, which I will now try. |
| Re: Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | Paladin_Andrei | 7/30/12 3:33 PM | Others report the same problem here, also on XDA. |
| Re: Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | Michael_wentink | 7/30/12 11:36 PM | I have to report the same problem. Battery drains within 8 hours fully charged while idle (so I do not use the phone). My collegue has te same phone with the same update, he also expierence the same issues. Please fix this issue. I wonder does anyone |
| Re: Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | linushsu | 7/31/12 9:48 AM | I have the same problem, try to close sync and the battery drain will stop, though your phone will stop sync will e-mails and etc. I hope google can come up with a patch soon, my phone is a dead brick on the job until they fix this. |
| Re: Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | monica11 | 8/1/12 12:45 PM | I have exactly the same problem. After updating the OS, battery life has dramatically decrease. I have to take my charger with me all day long. I'm not using it more than i did with on 4.0.4, but OS is still consuming ~ 75%. Please let us all know i |
| Re: Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | Paladin_Andrei | 8/1/12 2:01 PM | A smartphone without sync would be what is called a dumbphone. But it seems to be something from Google Now or Google location services. Disabled both, Android OS is at 3% after 14 hours of light usage, battery at 40%. Come on Google, we're getting |
| Re: Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | Vescovo01 | 8/2/12 3:54 AM | The very same issue with Exchange Services taking 57%, Android system 11%, Email 10%,Screen 9%,Cell Standby 5%. With ICS the phone would run on battery for at least 2 days before reaching a battery level of 60%. Now it shuts down after about 4 hours. |
| Re: Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | frede | 8/2/12 5:59 AM | Same problem here. No good and a annoying flash back to earlier upgrades. Come on please! I feel so stupid when the iphone fanboys look at my phone performance and laugh at "all those rocky android/open source projects. It'll never work good enough." |
| Re: Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | TenaciousJ728 | 8/2/12 3:45 PM | This is normal for the first few days after updating. The update needs time to settle in and make itself at home. It's been 5 days since your initial post. How is your device now? |
| Re: Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | JNexusS | 8/2/12 4:20 PM | It has been 5 days since the update and I am still having the same issue. Battery is gone from "com.google.android.exchange" |

| Re: Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | ACTPW | 8/2/12 7:08 PM | Better after 5 days, but lasting 80% of what it used to with 2.4.3. I turned Google Now back on to see if it can handle it without draining to 50% in 4h with no use. |
| Re: Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | Haris80 | 8/3/12 6:22 AM | Hello. I've had 4.1.1 for more than a week now, and I can't say my battery has a dramatical efficiency losses. On the other hand, the phone seams to loose Wifi signal with OS freeze. It has happens around four times and every time while quite "graphi |
| Re: Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | Vescovo01 | 8/3/12 2:21 PM | Deleting and recreating the Exchange account seems to have improved the situation significantly. Unfortunately it also deleted all of my Contacts that were on the phone that were linked with the exchange account. Since the phone contacts are not sync |
| Re: Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | idsanity | 8/3/12 2:27 PM | I had the same issue. I backed up everything and did a hard reset. Battery life is back to normal now. |

| Re: Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | ACTPW | 8/5/12 4:37 AM | To hoorrak: To be more precise, in Jul 2012 I updated from 2.3.6 Gingerbread to 4.0.4 then to 4.1.1 (the last two within 1h when I finally accepted 2 sequential OTAs). Last Dec, the OTA from 2.3.6 to 4.0.3 essentially bricked my Nexus S (slow resp |

| Re: Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | Vescovo01 | 8/5/12 6:38 PM | The update has been running since the release date. Normally the phone is plugged in to power and therefore it was not noticeable until 4 days ago when I left for the US and found myself without any power. When I returned to Canada the situation was |
| Re: Battery problems with OTA upgrade of Nexus S to Jelly Bean 4.1.1 | zazou2 | 8/8/12 2:41 PM | OK, my battery life is back to normal.
