Currently downloading 23.11.39 system update. I am not a soak tester.
Has the procedure for wiping the partition changed with this update? I've tried doing it three times. When I press and hold volume down and power buttons, for three seconds, it reboots my phone, as it normally would, during power up.

Just checked System Update and I see it too. Going to the VZ page about this they make it look like it is the original Lollipop update, but it is not, as I already have it.
Any idea of the differences vs. 23.11.38?
The update came in for me last night when I randomly did a manual system update check. Doesn't seem to have affected anything, and no pop-up ads… yet. That wouldn't be a part of a system update anyway, unless they want a riot on their hands.
Edit to add: 9 hours since fully charged and I'm at 23%. That is definitely not normal. I've actually used my phone a little less than normal today, too. I hope this clears itself up soon.
Did you Wipe Cache Partition after doing the update? It is recommended after any system update.

It looks like the cache wipe helped restore battery life on mine, too. I managed an easy 22 hours on a single charge yesterday, with plenty of juice left.
Lollipop has been a nice update except for two little annoyances. One is a lack of a built-in report for time spent on battery since the last charge and the other is my Music EQ app refuses to work 90% of the time now. It never failed like this in KitKat but now it loads and the EQ sliders do nothing unless I kill and relaunch the app several times.
