    The update works fine for me. Battery life is identical for me and my girlfriend. Not sure what causing others to have the android system using more resources then the display glitch though.

    I just don't wanna risk it.

    I ended up having to root it. Then I bought Titanium Backup Pro. And I froze the Device Management app (or something similar.. it had the same icon, so I chose that one) then I restarted my phone, and no more pop ups. When a new OTA comes up, I'll unfreeze and update to that one (if its good, lol)

    Thanks for the help!

    Yeah my wife is still complaining about the update, her battery life has been way worse since the update.
