[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharp1114:
Over the past few weeks, I've been running Apex 5.2. I love it. The phone is faster than ever and my test show a 129% increase in battery life. That's why this afternoon's events took me off guard.

After sending a series of text messages, I left my phone on my desk for 39 minutes, silenced. The batter registered 43% when I put it down. When I returned, the battery had dropped to 6% and the phone had jumped from the norm of 89 degrees F to 116. I checked the apps to see what was running;

gTabSiMiClock

ChompSMS Notifications/Backlight single, three second power-up/Basic, single vibration)

Tag Launcher 2.2

Facebook (Notifications/No backlight/No vibrations)

Gmail (No notifications/No backlight/No vibrations)

This is the first time this has happened. I doubt these apps have the power to suck down that much battery life in that amount of time, as I have been using most of them on a daily basis. The only change I have made is the background (Image/not live).

Am I wrong, or should I be looking for other problems elsewhere?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OBatRFan:
Well I can't tell you exactly what the problem is, but I have had instances where my battery heated up a lot. Usually a reboot will keep it under control. That is a very alarming battery drain, though.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhaley30705:
Have you checked for the 50% battery thing?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] watsa:
50% battery thing??? :confused:

@OP not sure what happened buddy as this is a instance which cannot even be reproduced, coz as u said battery was better all the time barring this instance. However to get maximum support u may want to report all ur problems in the ROM thread..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhaley30705:
The 50% time without signal. From multiple articles on xda, it's not rom related, it's an android problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] dirn1111:
Here is my method of calibration.

You MUST BE ROOTED

Download terminal emulator from market.

1.Charge your battery fully.

2.Cable remain plugged in

3.Go to terminal emulator

4.type "su", and allowed by super user.

5.type "rm /data/system/batterystats.bin" then your battery stat has been deleted. There is no other notifying sentence or whatever.

6.Unplug the charger

7.You will see immediate battery drop at this moment. and this is where it has not been charged.

8.Plug charger and charge fully.

Your batterystat is already created automatically

9. Repeat 4~8

10. Now you will find the gap of immediate drop decreasing.

PS//

When the immediate drop becomes 99% it can be said that it is done.

I personally think this is the phone itself related bug or something.

Because what I found was when I plug in charger it immediately becomes 100% and unplug 99%. that means for galaxy S 100% is really when it is 100%. for example if its 999/1000 it recognizes it as 99%. Got what i am saying?

Anyway you will find that it will stay long at 99%.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] JJEgan:
Why is that method Proper .

As opposed to using Clockwork to delete battery stats .

jje
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Bawdz:
Beat me to it jje, also ive found if you remove the charger as soon as it say to it will drop to 98 99%, if i leave in in for 1/2 hour it will be 100% when charger is removed
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Lazy Rich:
Does not work for me. Before i remove batterystats it says 95%, after it too. No changes there...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tecadejava:
Working well for me. After removing battery stats 100% stays for a long time.

Thanks for your info
[Galaxy S I9000 General] junkdealer:

The Permissions app on my phone shows a permission for "modify battery statistics". Explanation: Allows the modification of collected battery statistics. Not for use by normal applications.

The permission is used by the following Samsung apps: Settings, Software update, and MTP Application.

So I suppose there is also a way to do this from an app...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] WarDrake:
Actually, the battery needs to NOT go to 100% ...

it's done like that as a protection for you NOT to overcharge the battery to protect it's usable life...

so a drop from 100% to 98% upon discharging is actually good.
[Captivate General] brd912:
ok so i tried all the theming guides and im sure i can get it done but every time i have ever tried installing sdk,it fails. every time,ive triedon 3 computers and im not doing something rite. but anyways,i was wondering if there would be a way to build a theme using panda theme maker but then making into a zip file to run just like a regular theme?
[Captivate General] mrhaley30705:
Try looking in the Themes/App forum.

Mods: please move
[Captivate General] brd912:
well im not asking about a theme,or how to theme,im asking a "general" question about something to do with a theme. still,its a general question
[Captivate General] zelendel:
To be honest I would have to look at panda theme maker to be sure. It also depends on how much of it you want to theme as some changes can only be made by recompiling the apk.

Easy way to get rid of LED backlight when screen is on:

After flashing JVB do the following:

1) goto download mode. flash speedmod 13D kernel in odin as pda part

2) wait about 30 seconds after you see samsung logo.

3) long-press power button until phone switches-off.

4) goto download mode. flash original JVB kernel (or CF-root kernel 3.1 or any JVB-compatible kernel you plan to use).

Done. It worked for me. If it works for you, please use thanks button so that other people can see it's working for you.

I have just finished upgrading my phone from 2.2.1 with the Voodoo 5.5.1 custom kernel.

My upgrade to 2.3.3 went fine during the installation. Once it was complete I had lots of "force closes" so I did a factory reset on the phone and it started behaving itself ;)

I did have to reinstall all my applications and import all my contacts again.

I have also applied the custom CF 3.1 kernel and installed the Ext4 addon successfully.

Before I applied the Ext4 addon I was getting about 1000 in Quadrant Standard. Since converting to Ext4 I am now getting about 1500 - 1700.

All I can say is this phone is now super fast and responsive!!!

The lights are on all the time when you use the screen, thats the only "complaint" for me. I also dont like the smaller font and icons on the pull down screen (for wifi/bluetooth/GPS etc).

Lets see how it goes as I use the phone during the coming weeks...

PS: I forgot to mention that I used Odin 1.82 to upgrade my FW. Using Kies kept giving me a "DLL load error" so I gave up using Kies!

Extract RAR then there should be a NEE file

Flash the NEE as PDA with no re pit using odin then update with kies :)

Enter Device into Download Mode

- Enter the device into Download Mode by pressing down on Volume Down button

and OK button and Power On button at the same time.

Please remember that flashing your mobile phone is fully on your own risk.

If the process is interupted (power failure, disconnected cable, software failure (e.g. with KIES) ) your phone might be very dificult to revive.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] lvvine:
Download I9000XWJS5 from samfirmware, select the 2nd one from the list. it has 3 files in it. Flash your phone with pit,re-part ticked. then use the JS8 single file to flash.Then you will be back to orginal stock ROM. But Never roll back from 2.3.3 to 2.2.1 by flashing the single file. Phone will vibrate, applications will crash. Do not forget to backup your data. Once your back to JS8 you can use Kies to upgrade to new Gingerbread 2.3.3

Note: Its always good to use 3 files firmware to downgrade from 2.3.3 to 2.2.1
