Update: is it worth it?

I am rooted and have been denied update. Is this update really worth it??? I don't necessarily want to flash back to stock recovery, but are there any future reasons that I should???? What are some feelings....

Don't worry...
I think the cubed is working in a easy-to-flash zip package so you can install it via TWRP or CWM.

I updated mine just a few days ago. I used to get 12k on my Quadrant score. Now I only get 9k....

Pause and resume recording on same block, emotes, ect ect. Yes the update is very worth getting. Just install from the xda thread from cubed if your having problems

I may be the only one, But with only the VP update and no other changes my battery life dropped, So much so I'd like to remove the update.
I have unchecked every new option that may be running while I'm just using the phone and not the camera for video or pics.
In short... I don't like it.

Same thing here rizzo. I'm thinking of reflashing stock with no update. Its pissing me off that I only get 15hours now compared to 25 hours before. Same usage as before, not rooted as before.

Conan, did you update yours? And you say heavy usage... Is this continously or stop-n-go?

Yup I updated. There was a period where I watched some youtube, browsed in several tabs ect. Over the course of about 14 hours that was about an hour an a half accumulated time then for 6 hours strait, forums browsing and reading on nook with the screen never going off. Had 20% left and posted in the forum then took an hour break. got about another hour after that of watching youtube kung fu movie before I was down to 5% and nedded to charge. Total out to just under 8 and a half hours on screen time. There were of course many interruptions such as short phone calls and texts in my 22 hours before I had to charge. My screen brightness was set low as I was indoors so I adjusted manually from 25 to 35 as needed. I did this test for my own benefit to see how long this battery will hold up under pressure of long trips. I was thinking of buying the zero lemon battery but after all the use I got on stock plus the super fast recharge time, I feel I dont need it. I realize that with screen going from 25-35 to 50-65 for outdoor use I will lose some battery time but I doubt it will add up to an hour. I've not been in an outdoor situation that called for more than 75% brightness.

Should mwd49b be avoided?

I just picked up a SW3, and upgraded it to MEC24H. So far, I am pretty happy with it. I'll get a full day out of the battery, and that was with the just got it fingers playing with it more than I normally would.
I've heard some bad things about mwd49b on our watch, my watch keeps asking me to update, should I just avoid the mwd49b update for now and stick with MEC24H?
Thank you!

You can deny the card when ask for upgrade but I do not know if they ask again and again later ?

too bad
I can't use my SW3 since this update. The watch go from 3.5% by hour to 6-8% by hour, so unusable now

I've updated and have perfect battery life, easily 2 days. Yes, I'm a light user, but still......
I'm absolutely happy with the update. GPS is fine, in short everything works as it should.........

The latest update works fine on my watch. I even dirty flashed it, no hard reset. The only problem I have is that the watch would not fully charge when turned off. It will overheat and stop at about 60% charge.

Well I've found the update to be perfect here and same battery life as before. Strange how different people are having different experiences

Noticeably shorter battery life but the watch works much better. If you don't like to charge it every day or (almost) two - don't update but the update itself fixes many problems that occurred right after the update to 6.0
I've updated and my watch lasts almost for two days, I'm happy with the update but I'm waiting for the further fixes, mainly fixes for the battery.

Since accepting the update on my SW3 GPS has become unusable for any long-term tasks. It might last 20 or 30 minutes returning (relatively) accurate values but then accuracy shoots out to 64m or more and renders it useless for any serious application. I have two watches and they've both started doing the same thing. Personally I'd stick with version 5 for now until they fix it.

Interestingly enough yesterday my battery life restored close to normal after about a week of horrible drain. I did not do anything to the watch...

My update completed around 4:13 PM Eastern, I'm on the East Coast US. I looked on the HTC site for a 1.91.617.1 changelog; I saw nothing.
However, I now seem able to revieve sms messages, which had been driving me nuts today. They just would not arrive. Could send em successfully though.

Come on guys, there's already threads for this... There's already been several thread removed.

Try it yourself. I have not changed my usage patterns, and the battery is now lasting more than 2X what it used to do.

Did the sot increase or did standby for u?

The update made my bluetooth signal weaker. Than the previous one..with my bluetooth headset. Resulting to more garbling sound..disconnections.. Battery life seems more like the same.
I don't what did HTC improved or has done with this update.. Any changelog??????

I don't know what SOT or dog is.
Prior to the latest update, my phone would be down to about 20% at 24 hrs after a full charge to 100%. This is with light to moderate phone, email and text use.
After the update and with the same usage pattern, it is down to about 80% at 24 hrs after a full charge to 100%. Something has certainly been improved.
One possible negative is that Location is showing as unavailable in the HTC Time and Weather widget after the update. A reboot fixed that.

And it's not a minor improvement! After 36 hrs of light to moderate use, I'm still at 70%. This is a stock HTC 10, btw.

That's very light use there.

70% after 36 hours of usage? I guess you're only using it to see the time? lol

battery drain at november update

Hello
from the current update at november, i got only 5 hours maximum of usage at my device, before, it was 7 hours maximum.
does someone else saw these battery drain on these update?
my device is without root and with stock.
thank you

i noticed wi-fi scanning was switched back on mine. Worth checking yours too. That is a crazy battery drainer!

Try to factory reset as a last resort.
Try to root and solve by those means maybe?
Disable all syncing (unnecessary) crap and apps/system apps you don't use.

No extra drain here. I haven't done 7 hours in a long time but it is nearly 13 months old.
Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

so after 13 months the battery is dead??it's not nexus 6P with battery problems..also, mine is 11 months
i don't need root for now so i guess it won't help me, factory reset maybe can help but i'm try to avoid it now...
sync is disable now for crap and yet..at the email field there is two syncs Gmail and edison email, is it make the problem?
and i understand from you guys that the november update isn't make something with the battery?

I wouldn't say 5 hours SOT is dead. Dead is off the charger it lasts only 5 hours. I still get through a 16 hour day fine with 4 hours SOT and 20% left. I'm just saying I haven't gotten 7 hours SOT in a long time. What matters is getting from morning to night without needing to do a top off. And there's nothing wrong with charging during a drive back home from work. Also, I did a factory reset in October as it's something I've been doing yearly with my phones. It helps somewhat (my "Full charge lasts about" estimates have gone up 2-4 hours) but it's not going to make miracles and turn the battery to day-1 level. For me, I do it to clear up things.

My battery also dropped significantly, like OP, after the November update (from 6.5 SOT down to 4 SOT). I noticed my wi-fi scanning was enabled though after the patch. I will disable that. Hopefully that does the trick!

Here is another battery drainer to check. Pull down your notification shade and look for "nearby" if it's not there hit the edit button and add it to your quick toggles. Make sure it is off as that will be constantly looking for local advertising crap to serve up to you which costs you in battery life.

［APP] OnePlus Diagnostic

Just discovered from OnePlus China site.
This app features:
- hardware check with simple UI( no more *#808#)
- check battery wear level ( indicate the battery if replacement is needed)
Hope it helps

84% health after 16 months - not bad.

It is very useful to have the battery info.
I have 81% after 15 months ( I use the phone a lot). I'm still a bit disappointed.

it will be very useful if everyone post their battery health .. mine is 82% about a year usage

87%, 17 months with absolutely no care about battery health.. That's not bad.

87% here also, I have no idea how many months, I have the OnePlus 5 since day 1 (from release)

80% depressing

Yep. All the time.
Also I recommend this app from play store called: ,,Battery warner" which can stop charging when it reaches chosen percentage (but your phone must be rooted). And it warns me when I reach these 40% percent too.

90 %, own it since it has been released, so day 1.
Oh, and I always do a full charge, but never go under 20 % capacity.
