hmm only familiar with titanium and tasker

but they require root access right?

grooveshark was on for a bout an hour. and i closed it with the back button.

could that be the cause. i'll contact grooveshark with my logs and see if they have a leak in their app

turning it on and off doesn't seem to make a big difference.

but thanks for all the fish though everyone.

im off to root it and start over fresh (phone & job wise)
[Galaxy S II General] TheWarKeeper:
i know that you might not be bothered with this but, the gun bros normally freezes for a while, dont exit the app after 10 or so seconds it returns back to normal.

To avoid the device beying stupidly hot while playing that game, first exit the game itself, then exit all apps, clear memory ram and then enter the game, you will notice that the device will run warm all the time untill the next time u start some apps and start the game again.

funny thing. i missed an important meeting because of relying on an alarm clock. it didn't ring because as it turned out my kid took the batteries away to try them on the remote control..now i rely on the s2.

OP, you have spent so many bucks anyway spend few more and buy http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270770294819&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

an extended battery. Also update to 2.3.4, battery life is relatively much better on this.
[Galaxy S II General] blue265:
I am a deep sleeper and have a hard time waking up in the morning. So I set three different alarm systems up including the SGS2. You can't blame the phone just as you can't blame the hydro company when the hydro goes out and your alarm doesnt go off. At least have a dedicated alarm clock and use the SGS2 as a backup, lol.
[Galaxy S II General] mistxx:
I'm sorry but are you a total moron if as you already stated you had problem with the alarm....

Like another post said - you can't blame being sacked due to your phone not waking you up....

If you stand by that statement then I do refer you back to my first comment - bloody MORON - get a real life!
[Galaxy S II General] seven770:
Wow.. when you think you've seen it all!!

Seriously though,

If this is true, unlucky; but doesn't your employer have to follow the correct procedures?

On the topic of the battery.. that is a pretty bad battery graph, probably the worst I've seen, I'd get that looked at. ASAP.
[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
I try to stay away from battery life threads because they give me a headache, but this one is like a car accident, I can't look away. Once again, whatever's running on OP's phone is causing abysmal battery life. Far below the norm. So of course it's got to be the AOS bug that's the culprit. This time it's being accused of him losing his job - its first actually casualty.

So it appears there's two paths people can take...

1) Run everything and anything on the phone without any regard to compatibility and get battery life like the OP and blame AOS, Exchange, Samsung, and Google for not optimizing the phone for everything and anything.

2) Figure out what runs on the phone effectively and get decent (even good) battery life.

And for those that pick number one, you keep waiting for the Holy Grail. I'm sure it's just over the horizon.

And OP, I feel bad for anyone who loses a job in this economy no matter what the reason. I hope it all works out for you.

Here's my overnight battery life, I'm at 45%.
[Galaxy S II General] sinspawn:
I don't have any issues with drain, whatsoever.

1) It is very fair to assume that a $600 phone charged at 98% should be able to last through the night to wake you up.

2) Buying a dedicated alarm clock is no gaurantee. I had an alarm clock fail on me, because there was a short power outage during the night. Had I used the phone instead, it would have woken me up.

Lessons to learn here:

1) Charge your phone at night

2) Flash it with Lite'ning
[Galaxy S II General] nikzDHD:
P.S bad for you to lose your job your bosses don't seem nice at all! Everyone can be late for a reason, just blame the transport next time :)

Mine: Display has been on for 2 and a half hours. GPS on, Data/Wifi on, Push on for Exchange & Gmail, Auto Brightness, BeautifulWidgets & Facebook syncing on, Launcher Pro syncing on for FB. 2.3.4 running VR 2.0.
[Galaxy S II General] RogerPodacter:
all the fun and other posts aside, the battery graph shown in the first post of this thread is just extremely bad numbers. something is waking the phone. 7 hours to a flat battery with barely any screen on time is appaling. looks like the Android OS bug hit hard there too.
[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
Is it?
[Galaxy S II General] veyka:
Sorry, I laughed, then felt bad so though I should apologize.

That is bloody awful battery life though, something is keeping it awake, and maybe you are running an old firmware.

Update to KF2 or KG1 and you should only lose about 1-3% per hour idle depending on data(3g/2g) syncing(what and how often) and if you have some stupid crap in the background keeping the phone awake.
[Galaxy S II General] almorsol:
I am just curious.

If it consumes the whole battery overnight, by not being used.

How much does the battery last during the day when it is in use? :confused:

PD: Sue Samsung. Or at least ask them for a job. It's the least they can do. :D
[Galaxy S II General] Gavin.csy:

[Galaxy S II General] prodygee:
Yes yes, very cool and stuff. If this guy updates his SGS2 it'd last a lot lot longer. 2.3.4 y'know..
[Galaxy S II General] Mattix724:
Have you ever thought of having your charger next to your bed so your phone can charge on the night stand...

Your alarm goes off, and you have a full battery... win win.
[Galaxy S II General] BarryH_GEG:
I'm bone stock on KF3 (2.3.3) with syncs set to every three hours, the weather widget updating every three hours, and Exchange push. And my phone gets better battery life on Wi-Fi than 2/3/4G - it was on for all 17 hours. My router's also two stories away from my bedroom. Makes you wonder, doesn't it?
[Galaxy S II General] pulser_g2:
Rogue app causing that. Likely stock email app. I had it on the old ROMs before I managed to port the vanilla Email app onto the SGS2.

Samsung's attempt at email sucks...

Underclock to 200-800 conservative, I don't think my phone can physically drain overnight now without the screen being on :)

And yes, this is on the ROM on which Noonski could not drain the battery ;)

[Galaxy S II General] RostokMcSpoons:
No, you can't do that, cos the darned thing beeps when it gets to full charge... lots of people have complained about it, and I've not seen a fix for it yet :(

Hopefully there is something simple, cos I always used to charge my phone overnight, by my bedside, but the beep is loud enough to wake me up.
[Galaxy S II General] tfn:
I have my good OLD NOKIA N95 as my alarm clock never fails me even if its on one bar of battery :D

I haven't had a touch screen phone that rings as loud as the nokias, so never trust them to wake me :p
[Galaxy S II General] Drakx:
This made me laugh so much not the fact that you got shot from your job but the fact your blaming a phone of all things lmao as others have said why didnt you use your head and just buy a standard alarm clock and/or plug your phone into the wall?!
[Galaxy S II General] daivik:
Don't mean to offend, but oh dear. Have you heard of a charger?

Or perhaps an alarm clock?

Or (if you've recently been getting in late more often than usual) using a secondary alarm clock to make sure you wake up?

Was just wondering.
[Galaxy S II General] rasikh.n:
Im sorry about this but at all the replies, i just cant stop laughing hahahahahaha this made my day
[Galaxy S II General] Isadora:
Well there *is* something simple: put the phone on silent when you go to bed - it mutes all sounds except media and alarm.

Edit: and to make sure that I do get up, I have a back up system in the form of basic alarm, strategically positioned out of reach from the bed and which makes the most horrible noise, set up to go off 5 minutes after the phone alarm...
[Galaxy S II General] Nyssa1104:
I don't see why any one should feel sorry for original poster.

Try going bed early next time and try asking the news agent to give you back your paper round. ;)
[Galaxy S II General] v1rtu4l:
i am with the OP in the point that it is really ridiculous that the "stock" android version 2.3.4 is still not reliable enough to make it a proper replacement for a simple feature/dumbphone. the thing that it cant wake you up while its powered off is another really sad fact. these features should not be that hard to implement and symbian had this for ages, while it cant be that hard to achieve a working alarm when even a relatively new OS like Bada does have this without flaw.

i did oversleep because of the galaxy S2, too ... funny thing is, when i switched it on it was not even low on battery (before i went to bed it had 98%). having to use my wristwatch to be save to get up in time is really disappointing.
[Galaxy S II General] kersey:
I bet the OP used the excuse 'the dog ate my homework' at school too :)
[Galaxy S II General] kbiz90:
C'mon! The SGS2 is not a dumb-phone. And there is no official 2.3.4 Android version. However, one charge will definitely last longer than eight hours with the screen off if managed properly.

Just to play around (with a secondary SGS2), I flashed 2.3.4-based Cognition 1.12 and kept everything off (except WiFi), and it has been running for 3d 11h with 76% battery left (WiFi on for 1d 18h).

Before you rely on your alarm to wake you up for a job where the boss is already itching to fire you, it's best to understand the battery drain patterns of your alarm clock. It's user error otherwise.
[Galaxy S II General] ph00ny:
I'm just going to come out and say it

Even the dedicated alarms come with a battery slot just in case power goes down. Unless you missed an important event, i highly doubt they will just fire you for being late once. I'm sorry to hear that you lost your job but don't blame it soley on the phone.
[Galaxy S II General] otester:
Sounds like you were going to get fired sooner or later...

And you lost this job because of your incompetence, SGS2 = Karma.
[Galaxy S II General] helikido:
Especially when this phobe costs 500 euroes... i agree with the ****in op... 500 euroes should be reliable!!
[Galaxy S II General] RostokMcSpoons:
Thanks for the tip about setting the phone to Silent whilst on charge, but that's a bit "sledgehammer to crack a nut"... I'm sometimes I'm on-call, it's not ideal if the phone's ringer is switched off. Maybe the beep is an .ogg file that can be renamed?

As to the OP, well I have some sympathy with the guy. Ok, with regard to the job this might have been the straw that broke the camel's back, but hell, my phone loses 5% overnight: something must be wrong with his to die overnight. And I don't buy all this "he should have had two alarms" kind of stuff - you should be able to rely on a £500 phone to do something a £5 alarm clock can do :p
[Galaxy S II General] otester:
I have found my phone fails to wake me up sometimes (not loud enough lol), so I have 2.
[Galaxy S II General] Isadora:
Personally I *don't* wish to be woken up by calls, sms, emails or whatever else when I'm asleep :p but I see your point - I use an automatic profile app (Setting Profiles) one of my profiles is set up so that when it's plugged in the charger and between 11pm and 7am then it's on silent. If you wanted to, you could also add a whitelist option with numbers that are allowed to enable the ringer, or you could just set it up so that the ringer is always on for all calls and just mute system sounds. You can pretty much set it all up any way you want. The beep is an .ogg file, so I can't see why you wouldn't be able to rename it to .bak if you wanted

I've been using the 2 alarms systems for over 30 years :p for some things I really like to have a backup and that is most definitely one of them

[Galaxy S I9000 General] anthonyqld:
Hi Guys

When I turn my phone on, after the Galaxy S first screen, the screen is multi-colored for about 1 second before going to the boot animation. Once the boot animation appears the screen is fine.

That's not a problem. What is a problem is booting into recovery, the top of the screen has a few blue lines. It still operates as if it is in recovery, as if I press the power button it reboots - but if I press down once, then power, it's not rebooting. So it looks like it's just the screen can't display what's being sent to it. So I can't do anything in Recovery like installing the auto-phone record, screen capture service or extended power menu. It will also be a problem if I come to install another ROM.

Does anyone know why? It started happening after I flashed a new ROM - I flashed the new ROM because the phone was constantly freezing when running certain apps (and needed the battery removed to restart the phone) - it's no longer freezing.

thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 General] duchkata:
I'm not sure but,i think it because you don't have the good bootloader.For example,if you flash a rom from Froyo to gingerbread,you need to choose a rom with the gingerbread sbl(bootloader) include.

So to avoid this problem,just re-flash the entire rom with boot loader included.

Just go there http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1102881

Sorry, missed this somehow :/

the mount and image points are static, i see you have them possibly in the wrong spot. the .img file needs to be on the third partition of your SDcard (the ext4 one). if you place it somewhere, you need to tell the script where to find it.

these scripts were written with static mount points, so placement of the files is crucial.
