@bala_gamer what settings and tweaks you using that u get 2days battery backup? and what's your usage like?
[Galaxy S II General] Mr.Raviteja:
get note......how many here using Widget Locker?
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
Man, note is too bigger for pocket, saw the demo piece here in a showroom, its screen is mind blowing, makes our s2 look dull. But as they said its only giving 1 day battery life and also its carrying the same mali 440 gpu, so for a bigger screen its not going to give big performance there.

I used widget locker for a while, it gave me too much of wakelocks hence uninstalled it. Did you tried go locker?

---------- Post added at 09:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:30 PM ----------

Regarding tweaks all those details are in my signature :)

Ill be sending around 100 msg a day, calls for an hour, updating twitter feeds when i get sometime, and popping up xda premium more often, hearing songs for half hour.

get galaxy nexus.. ull get all the latest official updates before anyone..
[Galaxy S II General] TheQuarterMile:
Note is to big to use as a everyday phone... :(

And Galaxy Nexus not available yet in India.. as it is it gona be 30k+
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
Plus nexus hardware is inferior when compared to s2, its more or less like a downgrade apart from the screen.
[Galaxy S II General] TheQuarterMile:
Is the white SGS2 also I9100?

@bala_gamer Not bad... you keep twitter autosync off?

Agree on the galaxy nexus part..

Both white and normal are same AFAIK.

Ya, initially i had my twitter refresh every 15 min(As if im getting hundreds of tweets, but didnt :D). Now im refreshing it manually. Same for facebook too.

I guess ICS will come in 2013 now. Plain idiocy, again.

You need to check under Partial Wakelocks in BBS. There you'll be able to see which apps/processes are waking the device from deep sleep. You can also check Kernel Wakelocks to see if your Kernel is the culprit.
[Galaxy S II General] chetan_mohanty:
From the 1st drop down select "partial wakelocks".Leave the 2nd dropdown as "since charged" and see the results.If any application shows usage in hours then thats the culprit..

ok, regarding the Google Voice on our phones, yes it works. but there is a small hitch. you need to be over wifi to get this working. it does not work on 3G with stock or regular custom roms. you need CM for it to work on 3G.

having said that, now, the most important point. GET A GOOGLE VOICE ACCOUNT. and God help you with that.

secondly, get an account on sip2sip.info

use those settings on ipkall.com

obtain the new ipkall's USA number and add it to google voice(pray to God for that number to be accepted)

once accepted, go to your phone, settings-->call-->internet call settings-->add and do the rest your self(i am sure you will be able to figure out what to do)

next, download "google voice callback" from the market.

Hey guys! I have a query. It's been a month since I got the SGS2. One thing has been bothering me since. The 'down volume' key is a 'lil loose and makes a very faint noise when pressed. It's annoys the hell outta me -- I'm finicky about stuff like this and prefer things to be perfect.

Do you think I should get the phone replaced since it is a manufacturing defect and do you think they would replace it?
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
If you think it's lose or something then get it replaced as it's under warranty, simple :)
[Galaxy S II General] Athavan:
In our country replacement is not that simple dude.. And it may be my personal opinion too..

Bt surely he wont get a replacement for this... The cs guys will say, 'ya we will fix it and it takes one week time..'
[Galaxy S II General] KaranKapoor:
That's exactly my concern. And I definitely do not want them repairing my phone. Last time I gave my other phone for repair, I got it all scratched and dented.

I'll see if they can replace it. If not, I'll have to learn to live with it. :/
[Galaxy S II General] Athavan:
Yes it s better to give a try...

but scare them with your anger, which can work for you.. :-)
[Galaxy S II General] ithehappy:
Well I won't say that. The shop from where I purchase, if the phone is inside warranty and had/have even the slightest problem they always gave me a new replaced device. But yes there has to be a problem.
[Galaxy S II General] bala_gamer:
It depends on the region i think, typically in TamilNadu getting a replacement is tedious process(they will do all possible things to avoid replacement), it simply shows the poor level of the employers and their management.
[Galaxy S II General] ambar_hitman:
Thanks for the reply dude. My main worry is that will I9100G get ICS update by Samsung OR will they ignore it? I am not into Custom ROMs and hacking and stuff.

(a) fixed volume buttons+scratches/dents

(b) even more issues

(c) unfixed volume key+more issues+scratches/dents

if they plan on replacing your phone, don't expect a brand spanking new galaxy s2 from the factory. you will get a REFURBISHED phone unless you are super lucky.

if you ask me, live with it for a while and then when your warranty is about to expire, go for a replacement. that is exactly what i am planning on doing with my laptop even. i am scared they will change the parts of my system with old ones.

I don't know how 2.3.6 will fare, with 2.3.5 so rock solid, there are hardly any changes done to 2.3.6

Use widgetlocker for ics lockscreen. When I flashed ics domunation 1.5 on my phine running hyperdroid, everything went well and i got transparent digi clock. Maybe its removed from the file in the kitchen. try downloading the theme from the theme thread itself instead of using kitchen app.

And to NEW GUYS who got S2 just now, PLEASE CHECK your model before buying. Almost all October 2011 and later models are I9100G instead of I9100. And needless to say, I9100G sucks compared to I9100. The box doesn't help, Samsung is misguiding customers.

KK5+Speedmod Quick n dirty review

Yes you will lose root but it's no biggie. First do a Titanium backup then flash KK5 frank along with indian CSC via ODIN. It's a non-wipe so you should have all your apps n stuff intact. Now open up odin and flash CF or speed mod or any such rooted kernel and you're go to. Another option is to flash the stock FW using ODIN Mobile Pro, but i've heard it has some pending bugs and I haven't used it, so I can't vouch for it.

KK5 2.3.6 Frankenstein Review: :D

------------------------------------

So I just flashed an hour ago and things are looking good. Updating to this is a no brainer for anyone on stock Fw, cuz it takes 5 mins and it's quite an improvement. Guys on custom will prob need to wait a while for their fav ROMs to be ported to 2.3.6.

Any hoo, everything seems smoother and I personally feel like the touchscreen response has also been tweaked. I've heard that battery performance is also better and a lot of small tweaks and fixes have been done. I am using KK5 with Speedmod k2-18test12 and I love it. Will post battery performance results in a day or two. Also I got a quadrant score of 4640, which means nothing, but still! :)

When flashing any stock ROM you lose root and CWM cause the insecure/custom kernel is replaced with the stock one and root and CWM are embedded in the kernel.
