[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CharliesTheMan:
I regret spending the money on it. Definitely try the free version. It seemed like a good idea but a few days after buying the app, I learned how to use my phone and android and ended up liking manual configuration A LOT more, and getting way more battery life without sacrificing anything I need.

Rooted Thunderbolt on BAMF Sense 3.0 RC 4 with MR2 radio and latest dreamKernel.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Southern_mind:
Sometimes it helps, but other times it kills the battery. Turning the radio on and off seems to kill the battery too.

My ADR6400L is just as good as your PG86100.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stayin100:
I have seen where it will fail to turn the mobile data back on without a reboot
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiktik627:
I'm just wondering, does it really helps a lot? Because I'm running the free ver and it's not that effective.... does it really worth $8? I;ve been thinking this back and forth..
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trueagle:
not much for me,
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dondk:
I tried JD on my TB when I got it, then paid for the upgrade, a few roms later I uninstalled it for all the reasons mentioned. Worse battery life, at times it would not re-enable mobile data. To be completely honest, once you pay for the extra stuff, you may not use it as much as you think you would (I didn't).

The competitor Green power is more user friendly, updated often and in my experience provided slightly better battery life. The "pro" version of that is less than JD and the only difference between free and PRO is the night functions. If you plug you phone in overnight, you don't need the pro version of green power.

In the end, I don't use either anymore. Once I got to know my phone I set things up manually.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g00s3y:
That is horrible, unless your are using your phone every second.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] conadg:
i installed the free version and it has dramaticallly helped my battery life. and i am constantly using my phone
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onemotodroid:
the free version is all you need

just enabled the free version after you install it that's all you need

it does helps

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iphonesux:
Hey guys

I have a problem where my the backlight of my touch keys appear dull pink instead of bright white. (I'm referring to the buttons next to the home key)

Is this a defect? Should I exchange? Anyone else have come across this problem?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blickmanic:
yes that would be a defect; have you got any pictures?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iphonesux:
I tried taking a photo but it appears white on camera. It definitely looks pink in person
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] punshkin:
not normal. mine look snow white
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EarlZ:
Ive seen several SGS2's due to the yellow tinting issue and I've seen only 1 unit that had a really bright backlight at the same time that unit didnt not have any screen defects for me, only 1 out of over a dozen seen in person.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sp1tfire:
I can confirm my touch keys look rather pinkish than white, though it doesn't bother me.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbm1991:
yeah i agree with sp1tfire, I hadn't noticed but now that you mentioned it there is a definite slightly pinkish colour. Not that it really bothers me though.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beefheart:
Mine are light grey. Which is fine by me.

Sell it on eBay as having had a button customization. There are all sorts of idiots out there. ;)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blue265:
Mine appears pink too. I thought it was the way it was supposed to look as I don't know anyone else who I can comapare mine too. Although compared to an SGS1 it looks a lot more dull and pink - not white like the SGS1. I guess it is a defect then? I'll probably just leave it on account of the hassle it will be to send it back and not very important to me. I also have them always turned off as well
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heltahskeltah:
Mine r like this too I've heard people say on sgs forum its to do with the screen that's aload of rubish. If you look closely you can see its over spray from the black (dark purple) check it out yourselfs get a magnifying glass.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iphonesux:
Hmm seems a lot of ppl have pink buttons. Yeah compared to the sgs its not as bright. probably because theres no grey outline for the buttons painted on the screen. On the sgs2 its completely produced through backlighting. hmmm ill wait a few weeks cos its a real hassle to get it replaced

Edit: The keys dont even turn on anymore! it seems the light blew out just a few mins ago! definitely a defect there

Edit2: nvm it seems it auto turns off on low batt. Recharging made it go on again. however its still pink
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chef_Tony:
my buttons appear pink-ish too. but it doesn't bother me and i just love this phone, so i wouldn't send it back for this tiny issue. also, my previous phone was a htc blackstone, with a standard lcd screen, and it might just be, the buttons look pink, because the white on the screen is so bright and clear ;) i haven't had a fully black screen w/o any backlight and the buttons light up. probably, they'll look white then.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frankie_99:
Pinkish touch key is kind of weird.... I was expecting snow white in color as well.

I have made a G+ Account called "XDA Circle". If we can get all XDA members to search and add that account to a circle. It would more or less create a global group. I'm thinking it would be an easy way to keep our own XDA circles up-to-date. Simply search for the "XDA Circle" profile, dbl-click into it to view who has circled the "XDA Circle" account. Then you can easily find XDA Members that you have not added yet.

I have no plans to use or make posts from that profile. In theory, it should grow on its own as more XDA members get online with Google+.

[Galaxy S II General] d3l1:
Just to let you know, KF3 has been released on KIES for DBT phones:

PDA: KF3

Phone: KE7

CSC: KF1

Updating now :)
[Galaxy S II General] d3l1:
Done, at some points I thought Kies crashed but update went fine and everything is at it was (restore was fine). Lets see what KF3 brings with it.
[Galaxy S II General] dudi1986:
did u get ur S II from O2? mine still runing on the KE2!!( got from O2 with mine Handy contarct):(
[Galaxy S II General] d3l1:
No I bought it from Amazon. Its the german unbranded version. Maybe you have the o2 branded version.

Mine is GT-I9100KLADBT the firmware is XWKF3.
[Galaxy S II General] jojo2peter:
Wow...

At first i had the KF1 (ARB) >.<..

i couldn't flash, then i flashed the KE2 Firmware, but it didn't change the CSC =(

Then i tried KE7.. didn't work.

Flashed a MultiCSC and selected via *#272*IMEI# the DBT CSC, and it still didn't work, so i flashed back the KE2 and now it works.. finaly :)

//it's respectably faster :)
[Galaxy S II General] dudi1986:
I'm not sure if its a branded. i dont have nothing to do with O2 on the phone .

i have GT-I9100KLAVIA with multi-csc

would i get the update if i changed the CSC to DBT instead of VIA? would i lose the warrenty if changed the CSC ?

i would be greatfull for ur answer(ich bedanke mich im voraus:D)
[Galaxy S II General] jojo2peter:
no, you won't lose your warranty...

From my experience, you need KE2 and DBT (you can select it, when you type in "*#272*YOUR IMEI#" but it will do a reset :-S

With KE7 it didn't work!!
[Galaxy S II General] dudi1986:
it didn't work!!:(

i got the famous (this version cannot be upgraded):p
[Galaxy S II General] siloportem:
Wow, finally we get an update.

I have just updated and everything went fine.
[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
This update is also available, and has been available, in the firmware thread in dev forum.
[Galaxy S II General] Chef_Tony:
actually, i was thinking about opening this thread this morning, but since i saw the rom collection thread had it already and assuming everybody connects their device to kies at least once a day, i decided to try it first.

has anybody noticed any improvements/bugs yet? people in the kf3 uk thread seem to experience bugs in IM, i don't really use it, since it does not offer my preferred messengers, but after opening it at least it did not force close or anything.

this was my first update on android and i created a backup on kies beforehand and did the update, when switching it on for the first time, everything was just the way i left it before. does that mean, the phone performed a factory reset and kies automatically restored my backup or was there no factory reset at all? is it important to do a factory reset after an update and is restoring a kies complete backup a good idea or should i reset and then make all my settings manually and just sync my contacts and stuff back?

unfortunately there are no changelogs for the roms, so i don't know, what exactly should have been fixed with this update, but i can see absolutely no difference yet, if it weren't for the new data in the phone information, i would have thought the update was unsuccessful ;)
[Galaxy S II General] d3l1:
what I read here and noticed so far, too, was that the SMS Themes are gone. And I updated my GFs phone too (also KE2 DBT) and now that she's on KF3 I tried Samsung Apps. I tried to update KIES but it said "not for your device" which made me wonder :) and the besides that I can't seem to find the camera firmware updates anymore, I searched the whole Samsung Apps list and there is none, not on my phone, not on her's.
[Galaxy S II General] Chef_Tony:
one thing that changed, is the vlingo voice command, i only noticed it, because all of a sudden, it showed up as the last app in my app drawer.

[Galaxy S II General] Deleted member 4008681:
compared to ke2 the battery life of this firmware is bad.

lost 23% of battery over night in 9 hours.

android os is @ 59% (48m 50s)

maybe a hard reset will fix something but currently I'm not happy with that.
[Galaxy S II General] rulez77:
3g data stall bug is still present with O2 Germany. Disappointed.
[Galaxy S II General] angerfist19:
hmm... for me it runs a lot better than the ke2 or ke7...

did you make a wipe...

i had some problems with the csc... but after a wipe it was again ATO instead of XEU...

EDIT: WTF why i got the same pic as MOM2006..never set up a pic... hmm strange
[Galaxy S II General] Deleted member 4008681:
I did no wipe. Will try this on the weekend.

according to the pic: have you set A1 or Telekom Austria as your mobile provider? If so you'll get automatically this pic.

I also have the ATO csc never changed this to XEU
[Galaxy S II General] Joschi75:
Check the KIES description in Samsung Apps, this version is for Eclair 2.1 only

And the camera update did already disapear before, it's not related to the updated firmware.
[Galaxy S II General] EvilGeniusHST:
Just tried to update my phone (not rooted) from KE7. All seemed to went well, but then Kies showed a hint window with 4 Points in it, but instead of letters and words there where only quares in the Box.

I only had a button with "Confirm" and now kies is showing its normal UI (like with no phone connected) and my Samsung shows the "Downloading..." screen with the green android. And this since 10 mins.

Any suggestions/help?

Edit: Okay, just removed the battery, phone booted up normal, but still with the old version. Kies is really a pain!
[Galaxy S II General] Chef_Tony:
the battery drain got worse for me as well. and i just had the unpleasant experience that both the new vlingo and the old vlingo work terrible for me now. i was so glad, the update was released but one thing i never thought about was: how does one "officially" flash back to ke7? i want to keep the ability if they eventually release a better firmware and i am using my device pretty much as stock, no root or major customizations. do i need to start learning how to flash with odin now?

could any of you advise me on how to properly set up voice command for optimal performance?

my system is set to english, but i want voice command in german, but it reads out english words with german pronounciations, "maessahge" instead of either message or "nachricht". also there seem to be several engines and so many settings. i don't get it, i can pick vlingo or google, in another menu it is samsung or pico. in voice input and output settings i can set the language to german or many other languages, when i change some setting, it is only available in korean, then again, in voice talk there are entirely different settings. i totally don't get it. if anybody set it up to work properly, please post your settings
[Galaxy S II General] H-KaN:
So far the only negative aspect i could find is the battery drain...6 hours before it was fully charged.and now see urself on the pictures...maybe someone knows why...the only things i did were music for about 2 hours, one phone call and one message.
[Galaxy S II General] angerfist19:
jop.. set A1 as provider...

ahh thx thats the reason for the pic...

had the xeu Ke7 before, orignal ATO ... the ATO ke2 for me was horrible thats why i flashed the ke7...
[Galaxy S II General] d3l1:
I use flightmode furing night and I lose 1-2% over 7/8 hours and during the day is hard to count because my workplace has some spots with very bad reception and that kills the battery faster, have to try during the weekend.

never had that bug, my phone used to switch between 3G and H a lot at the same place but besides that the connection never crashed, 2 times the whole connection was just gone out of the blue (no provider, nothing) but that was on KE2 and I blame o2 for that.

Just read it, strange though as I updated it a few weeks ago and now can't.

Didn't know that, I found 11.07.01 in the camera thread, page 40.

I would recommend uninstalling Kies completely and downloading and installing it again.

My drain is nothing like that, your phone is awake when your screen is off and not rarly but very often. You should check your apps, something is killing your battery and it can't be AndroidOS because I have 62% AndroidOS running 2h and I lost 5% battery in 6 hours. Somebody found the Facebook App to be the problem draining his battery, for me it was the stock Samsung E-Mail app, Google+ and the Go Launcher Notification widget which recently had to leave my phone due to killing my battery.
[Galaxy S II General] H-KaN:
Thank u my friend. I just checked again and android os decreasing now. I will check which app causes this.
[Galaxy S II General] :
i found the issue now for the heavy drain. it's exchange active sync. when this is set to push it is still draining the battery even there is nothing to sync. so this component gets more and more useless with each android version

Should I flash CM7 by Mik 6.5.5 using ROM MANAGER? I've read that application bricked some phones, anyone knows about it?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] lonerguy:
flashing with ROM MANAGER is same as using ClockWorkMod recovery, coz ultimately everything is done from recovery.... so u're good to go!!!!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] zapito:
So, I wouldn't have any problems flashing 6.5.5 from ROM MANAGER app? It's fully compatible with CWM ?

Thanks a lot, tomorrow I'm flashing the p500 and I don't want to have any problems, so I want to be really sure about what I do :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] lonerguy:
yes... CWM and ROM Manager are a package together. ROM MANAGER on it's first run, install CWM recovery. So, they aren't different things, just two parts.....

don't worry, My first flash was also similar.... got worried... but everything came out just fi9.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] zapito:
Last question bro, The easiest way to root is using Superoneclick ?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] gkarthik16:
I would suggest that flashing through CWM revocery is the best way. Just use ROM manager to install CWM recovery. After installing it, you won't need ROM manager anymore

I say this because I experienced factory resets just by rebooting into recovery through the ROM manager. Heard that the latest version is fixed but CWM is working like a charm.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] zapito:
Ok, I will follow your advice, and for first-time Rooting should I use SUPERONECLICK?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ert69:
Super1click or z4root if ur on froyo
[Optimus One, P500, V General] zapito:
Okey, I have Froyo 2.2, so I Only can root it with z4Root? Btw, I think it's the easiest way..
[Optimus One, P500, V General] gkarthik16:
Z4Root would be fine.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] IamIrene:
use z4root if ur phone running 2.2

2.2+ then use gingerbreak ~
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Jrhodes85:
Here's my experience, one: I used z4root and it didnt work than I used gingerbreak v1.20 and it worked. I was rooted...I had quite a few unsuccessful attempts with using rom manager so I did alittle homework and found some flashable recoveries, which I will list a link to

http://www.megaupload.com/?f=XGKNWZQJ

Im using CWM 3.1.0.0 and my rom is CM7 (which honestly: is the best)...Ive used Megatron V1 and Devoid Froyo Final but my money's with CM7, I love to options that it has...

make sure that you wipe everything when your in recovery ie...dalvik/cache/battery stats: everything. It makes for a clean slate and you shouldnt have any problems from there on

Try this: open camera, take a picture, and when pressing the back button to exit the camera put your ear close to the phone and can you hear a little "click"? I can hear it from my device, and as much as I can tell, it's mechanical, not from the system or any software.

Have you never used a non-mobilephone camera in your life? It's simply the camera adjusting focus, or rather resetting it when you close the app. Older phones can't do this, the Sensation can. There is effectively a mechanical movement.
