is high I'm afraid! Same settings as GB but at 35% after 6.5 hrs! Not good. I could do a whole day on the latest GB version I was using.

Pants.

Gonna turn off face unlock (its a bit slow anyway) and gpu rendering for acceleration, and animations etc.

Results in a day or so

Anyone know how to report issues on ICS?

When you did the update can you remember what your Note's battery percentage was at?

Around 65% but it was charged again overnight.. Seems to be better after turning off animation, etc

It's not the animation although that will help slightly, it's because you did the update not before a full charge.
As such the battery will need recalibrating.
 
I have a same problem. I have to recharge it in mid-day. I have never done that before. The part worries me most is that a phone sometimes heat up a lot with a crazy battery drain. It seems that I can't kill some programs. Also, my Ram usage now is always around 500Mb even after killing all the programs. I could get low 300Mb before.
 
low 300mb??? I wish - I'm constantly over 600mb and been that way on every fw i've run, including ICS!

How long does it take for the battery to re-calibrate?

thanks
