Question 4.1 and 7100 battery life...

Has anyone else noticed that their battery life is significantly reduced after installing 4.1?

Also does anyone know if you can roll back the software to a previous version?

1) Hmmm Not in my case. I think it's because we are using it more as it's new and once we go back to regular usage the battery life should be the same. Worth checking out though. You may be right.

2) Yes u can downgrade to 4.0.

Also, do you have Bluetooth turned on and the status light on? I know those can affect battery life. Or maybe invest in a holster with the 'sleep' function to help preserve battery life.
