As you can see from my previous post mine lasts about 2 days and 5 hrs.

I have rooted the phone on KG3 firmware and frozen samsung apps with titanium backup.

i really dont understand the idea behind so many threads about battery life

it is easy just keep charging whenever u r in (home, car, work, coffee shop) anyplace with electricity

good luck :D

What are you using to record the mA usage?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chipxtreme:
The battery life is the only bad point about my galaxy s 2, i'm running KG2 but about to flash to KG3 once the battery is charged.

I'm getting about a day and a half at best but I used to get at least an extra day out of my galaxy s.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Riqz:
Do you people realise this is a smartphone. I barely got a day of use with my old iphone... With the galaxy s2 i get 2 days and 6 hours out of 1 battery charge doing pretty much everything i need to do... If you get less than a day your phone has problems. If you're getting a day tinker with the options and programs, use titanbackup to freeze unnecessary processes, and if you're getting 2days or more then you should be a happy camper because most smartphones will never get that.

ok and i get this, or use this how?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
he's likely using battery monitor widget, but that is only estimating mA readings based on percent drop and the size of the battery (value entered by user). the SGS2 does not output actual mA readings like other phones, so its only a guesstimation. however, its still good figures to look at since nothing else exists.

hi there

make sure u do a battery calibration after flashing the Rom. in my case, the calibration makes a huge difference.

No you are not the only one ..

my phone stays about 10 hours in stand-by mode .. and it doesn't even drain 1% :D i know it's weird .. im impressed too .. even more than u ,,

my os version is 2.3.4 kf1
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kld_555:
This is quite exceptional!!! 3 days!? how is that possible mine can only last for 18~20hrs (including my 7 hrs sleep!!) that means it works only ~12hrs!!

I didn't try to leave it in charger though as you did! I will try to leave it today to charge as much as it wants! and see if that makes any difference! will keep you posted..

Note, are you using the original samsung battery? nothing from these extra AH batteries??

I'm very happy with my battery life :) getting a full day with 5hours+ of those screen on time :D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EarlZ:
2days and 12hrs, 76% left. Slightly a little less than expected but very acceptable. Was thinking at 2days 12hrs I should still have 80% at least.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GIR:
Probably because he has wcdma, wifi and anything else which is power consuming disabled. And like he said himself the phone was mostly on idle. Try out yourself, disable your internet and see what your battery life is.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J.2K4V:
yep, believe it or not i actually am impressed with it. I have wifi, background games etc on every day and still the battery lasts longer than my freind who has an HTC Desire.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roman5:
Yep, that's correct. In the notification tabs, I always have wifi, bluetooth and GPS off until I need them, and only keep sound/vibration, and auto rotation on. I'm really impressed with the battery life on idle, but with moderate usage, it's ok, not great. But, I've never been in a situation yet where I drained the battery and left myself stranded, and my phone doesn't see heavy usage. I use sat nav, camera, video recording and internet every now and then, and really, daily use consists mostly of calendar appointments, phone calls, texts and receiving email. I can't really be bothered with full on graphics games on a phone. I just occassionally play tic tac toe, or slider puzzle games downloaded from the market. These fps games are sure to drain the battery fast, probably more than anything else. They do look amazing though! :)

I do wonder if people with different ROMs and firmware get longer battery life during moderate to heavy usage compared to mine.

How about he just posts in threads relevant to the topic. If the thread is old I leave it to the moderators to determine if the thread should be closed.

As for battery stats.

I just upgraded to the stock 4.0.3 Rom 2 months ago. Was lucky to get 9 hours of usage. Very light stuff use. An hour of internet. 30mins phone, google sync on.

Did a factory reset and at least the overnight stats were much better...with Google sync OFF.

With it on and doing some heavy syncing, it was dead in a little over 2 hours. Waiting for the battery/dust to settle before I form an opinion on battery life after the reset.

[G2 and Desire Z General] mighty34:
I know that lot of talking been here about Desire Z hboot

my hboot is 0.85.0005

recomended is 0.84.2000

i tried to do it as explained here

http://www.virtuousrom.com/2011/06/t-mobile-g2-users-migrating-to-desirez.html

but hboot didn't accept pc10img.zip, saying wrong picture...

My question is

Do I need to do it at all since I assume that I have Desire Z hboot since I have Desire Z and not G2

I checked size of system storage in Quick System Info Pro and it says:

Internal storage: 1.05GB

System storage: 546MB

System cache: 288MB

Memory: 373MB

As I assume people with G2 need to do that in order to increase system allocation from 400MB to 535MB

I already have 546MB

Am I right?

Can I flash custom rom with this hboot which I have?

i want the stock contact apk as well, it helps match the contacts automatically, which is awesome

hi, sry to say that, but it's not possible, motoblur is rooted deep into the system so it's not possible to use motoblur software outside a motoblur rom.

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ivansku:
I'm new here, so don't hate on me.

Well, with SetCPU its able to check "Short Bench/Long Bench etc."

And I was wondering if my values are bad or good.

On "Short Bench" I get : 581.0 to 678.0

On "Long Bench" I get : 7087

On "Native Bench" I get : C: 2457.550049ms.

I dont understand those values at all, so please tell me , are those good or not?

And what can I do to make them better?

Also i compared my HTC Wildfire to a HTC Hero, for example: I tried the game "NinJump", my rooted Wildfire was kinda laggy but the Hero could play it with no lagg at all.

I got the latest CyanogenMod and the HCDRJacob kernel.

And with SetCPU my "max" is at: 672 and "min": 480 (Ondemand)

But the Hero is not rooted at all, and I read that HTC Wildfire (with CPUblabla.) would beat Hero.

So please help me, links/vid. comment tip or anything.

/Ivansku
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lesicnik1:
Reason why the Hero didn't have lag: GPU.

Hello, Everyone.

I dropped and broke the screen to my MTG4 a few days ago and just received my replacement this morning from T-Mobile.

My old phone was set up perfectly and I would like to copy everything to the new phone. The old phone still works but the screen is cracked.

I rooted my phone a very long time ago and forgot the steps I used.

I'm hoping there is a quick, fool-proof and simple way to root the new phone and copy all the programs and settings from my old phone, all in one easy step. Is there some way I can do this?

If not, what is the best way to root and copy the settings and programs from my old phone to new? If there is a thread showing what I'm asking, I could not find it and would sure appreciate an url.

Thanks in advance for your replies.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dung8604:
download ROM manager from the market if you haven't already and flash Clockwork recovery. Then boot into recovery and go down to backup and restore. click backup, the phone will do it's thing for about 10 minutes. Remove the SD card, install it into the new phone, root the new phone, install ROM manager and Clockwork again. Reboot into recovery again. Click backup and restore and this time choose restore and select the correct date (if you have multiple backups for some reason). This will keep everything the way it was before, although some widgets may have to be reset.

No, but the simple answer is just re-root using psneuter and gfree (fastest method I've found), flash whatever ROM you were using before, and then make a nandroid backup on your cracked phone, then restore it on your good phone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iury_simas:
Hi guys,

I just bought a Galaxy S2 and I want to flash a newer firmware.

The firmware I intend to flash (XXKG1) comes with PDA, MODEM and CSC.

Is it possible to flash just it's PDA part? Would there be any implications on that?

Why would I want that? Because the original firmware (Brazil - VIVO carrier) I could find only came with the PDA part. So if I flash CSC or MODEM, there is no way back.

The CSC is different from mine. Would that be a problem?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HellcatDroid:
AFAIK the CSC is installed into the system partition, so even when you only flash the PDA part you're going to loose your current CSC setup.

However, if the FW comes as seperate .tar files you can just flash the PDA one, yes.

You can take care of a "way back" if you first install CF-Root for example and then do a backup from recovery mode.

Restoring that back gets you pretty close to "nothing ever happened" - it doesn't backup the moden though, only system and data.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iury_simas:
Uhmm... weird, even on ODIN you have a separate button for the CSC.

What are the consequences of changing the CSC?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tfn:
As the above poster mentioned It really depends how the firmware is packaged

Intratech's firmware are packed in one TAR ( Pda/phone/csc ) is just one zip, which you put in the PDA section and it flashes all three of them within

If you get three seperate files then you put them in their corressponding order of ODIN

In this instance you can choose to keep your current CSC and not flash that one.

Although I am not sure if It has any effect between 2.3.3 and 2.3.4
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sader0:
Just to clarify CSC subject:

I live in Kazakhstan. My present setup (from *#1234#)

PDA: I9100XEKE2

Phone: I9100XXKDJ

CSC: I9100XEKE1

believe all available official samsung firmwares are issued do exist for different region(i.e. Kazakhstan is not included)

How safe is it to flash the 2.3.4 firmware now (KG2) ?

What can I possibly loose using the KG2 firmware from Samsung ? As u understand phone language is not a problem for me.....so wonder anything else I omit ?

Thanks for help
