#FuriOS update 13.0.8 for #FLX1 has been delayed by about 10 days, but you why was this?
I decided to find the reason for the battery drain here is what we found
firstly, packagekit is a battery hog, so we wrote a #GNOME software plugin for aptkit for system updates, second was related to modems mainloop being blocked (sometimes and inconsistently) and not going to sleep and last (the hardest to find) was with the WiFi driver not going to sleep correctly.
All fixed up and landing this month!
another update on this the battery has now dropped by 30% in 85 hours.
at this rate it the estimated 100 to 0 is roughly around 12.5 days. of course there is still room for optimizations so we can easily get it to 14 days of idle time, but i think this will do for this month.

Battery life was the one hope I had for the FLX1 and it was the one thing I ws so relieved it excelled at when I got it. Gives me as good as an Android phone while running a more pure Linux distro.
