Skyrocket had better battery also and 1.3gb ram.

Been hearing rumors that Skyrocket will have a home button also?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Firepac:
Where are people getting that Skyrocket will have 1.3GB of RAM?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] chase10784:
The skyrocket will need the bigger battery cuz the bigger screen, more power hungry processor, and LTE....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] defnow:
Off their website and confirmed by their facebook ppl....nothing on samsungs website tho. Still waiting on that..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] pinoymutt:
What's funny is that Samsung's official twitter announcement on the Skyrocket references the PhoneArena site for the specs, and it's only saying 1GB of RAM (not that weird 1.3 figure).

http://t.co/KGQ2rWZv

Also interesting that it just says "Dual CORE 1.5" -- my guess is that they know that posting whether it's Snapdragon or not will bring our the tech masses to take it apart (which is already happening, although mostly via speculation though).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
Better battery does not equal better battery life. The T-Mobile Galaxy S II has the same processor and large battery as the Skyrocket, yet it gets considerably worse battery life the the standard AT&T Galaxy S II.

The T-Mo Galaxy S II with its 1.5GHz Qualcomm chip and 1850 mAh battery lasted 7.7 hours in Engadget's battery rundown test. The AT&T Galaxy S II with its 1650 mAh battery lasted 9.5 hours.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] twiggums:
Snapdragon and 1 gb ram. :-)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] vl221:
I wish I can get 9.5 hours. Slight and moderate use only yield me 8 hours Max.

On my iPhone 4 I easily get 20 hours with equal use as my sg2.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] smknutson:
I initially was irritated at this announcement, but it looks AT MOST a side-grade.

I got my SGS2 for $99 through att, and its screen protected, cased, and setup the way i like with UnNamed ROM, so..... I'm good, I'll be staying with my sgs2.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] vuoflfan:
for what its worth..I just came back from my local AT&T store...I have a friend that works there, we keep up on new roms and new phones....He said

I phone has a good battery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
Wtf? How many display on hours do you have to run out that quickly? 7?

You definitely have a rogue app buddy. You should be getting battery life pretty much on par with the iPhone 4. Some have claimed they get better battery life than the iPhone 4. The quickest I have run out is like 14 hours and that was with almost 6 hours of display on phone in use time. Typically I still have around 50% left when I go to bed after 16 hours with moderate use.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
Nice... Qualcomm like we've all been saying and it still has a hump at the bottom unlike one dude was boasting. Looks to still have 1GB of RAM as well if the Verge is correct.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
They don't have any proper angles of the bottom... It looks to me like it doesn't have much of a hump, it's more of a "seam" at the bottom of the battery door. Note that the only side-shot has the guy's hand blocking the bottom...

Key thing here is - The maximum thickness is .02" extra. On the S2, that max thickness is driven by the "hump" - on the Skyrocket, the "hump" is far less pronounced AND the max thickness is higher - because the "hump" has been extended to the entire length of the device, making it a gigantic fatty. (not surprising, it IS an LTE phone after all.)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
Here is a closeup side shot of the Skyrocket with measurements. The hump is less pronounced, but definitely still there. Added AT&T Galaxy S II on right for comparison.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Dranakin:
So, how much worse is the Qualcomm APQ8060 at 1.5 GHz than the 1.2 MHz Exynos 4210? I understand the Exynos GPU is much better, but let's say I don't plan on gaming. If I want to stay on stock and just root to get rid of bloatware, will I really notice a difference? I'm just concerned about being locked into a two-year contract when LTE is rolling out (albeit, slowly).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BarryH_GEG:
There's lots of discussion on this in the TSGS2 forum. The Skyrocket's essentially the same phone with an LTE radio so should see similar performance. UI lag, stuttering, and lack of h/w acceleration are the biggest topics of discussion between the two.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] sweetboy02125:

How you get 6 hours of display when not with stock rom. When i was with stock, yes 6 hours. However, after using cooked rom, only ~4 hours.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Dranakin:
I previously got only about 4 hours on stock ROM, even after removing bloatware, shutting down rogue processes, and turning off most of the radios.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] propsizzle:
after reading about people who said their AT&T store would let them return on sunday, a few days past their return window, i asked my AT&T store to do the same.

and it was a big fat no. along with, we can't tell you anything about whether we will have any available for you.

i mean, policy is policy, i just had my hopes up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
I don't do anything special. I posted somewhere in my thread a screenshot of my battery life and which things I have syncing, etc.

If you don't overclock and have the same services set up, you should at least get the same battery life as on the stock ROM and probably even better because the stock bloat isn't eating up resources in the background.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BrentR01:
Anyone know if the Skyrocket will have a notification LED like Sprints version of the SGSII?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] vl221:
2 hour display on. I unrooted my phone and factory reset since I am returning the phone and I only get 7 hours out of the box.

If we compare apples to apples both right out of the box, the iPhone will blow the SG2 in battery life.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kornklown69:
More like apples to oranges....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] vl221:
How is that apple to orange? You think it will be fair to compare a bone stock iPhone vs a rooted/custom rom flashed on a SG2?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
7 hours total with 2 hours screen on? Either you're a troll or your phone is defective.

The iPhone might blow your GS2's battery life out of the water because it's freaking defective, but not mine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BarryH_GEG:
My unrooted ISGS2 gets 12-14 hours with moderate/heavy usage. People with ****ty battery life can probably attribute it to the task killers, battery monitors, app freezers, and low-rent apps they're using. The battery life discussion has been going on since May in the ISGS2 forum and since all phones leave the factory the exact same way it's something that's being done to them afterward that's causing such different results.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] vl221:
Oh no, I am a troll..is that the best you got? Calling someone a troll on a online forum. E-thug some more..kid..

So your saying that your bone stock SG2 will blow a bone stock iPhone 4 battery out of the water. Sure.. you sound like a troll more than me..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Kadin:
Where exactly did he say that? I think you're implying something that he didn't state specifically. As to calling him a troll, I suggest you do a bit of research and see how much he's contributed to this community before you throw out a comment that has no merit.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
Maybe you missed the "either" part of my post. If you aren't a troll, which I'll reluctantly take your word for, then your phone is defective and should be exchanged, but it sounds like you're going elsewhere anyways.

Definitely never said that. I'm saying it should get similar battery life to the iPhone 4 as long as it's not defective and doesn't have a buggy app chewing through the battery.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Dranakin:
Yeah, shame. I just wish this phone had the Exynos 4212. Oddly enough, I feel like this phone is outdated simply because it came out in April/May (the international version).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SeanHacker:
e-thug, iphone??? please bro. not sure why you hate yourself enough to come into and ANDROID forum and start battles. kinda lame. go get yourself an iphone and let them choose what you can do with your phone. its sounds like you got one of the defective phones anyways. i get easily 20-26 hours of life depending on usage.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] xAnimal5:
Guys lets humor him and lets say the iPhone DOES get a little better battery life. Now lets look at the facts:

-The SGSII has been proven to load web pages faster and open apps faster than the Iphone 4s on wifi and 3g/faux 3g.

-The SGSII is super durable compared to the cheap glass Iphone 4s

-The SGSII has gorilla glass, the 4s has cheap smudgy olephobic glass (crap)

-The SGSII has Faux 3g, the 4s has 3g

- The SGSII is fully customizable with root, the 4s has few new capabilities when jailbroken

-The Android Market is growing exponentially faster than the Apple app store

-Music, movies, and other files are

20x easier to put on the SGSII than the 4s

-No custom ROMs for the 4s

-Anyone who is not an apple fanboy sees iphone 4s users as fanboys

-Every year, apple adds useless features like Siri that draw in the "dumb" crowd.

But, yeah sure... get an Iphone for that extra 1hour of life. I'd have done 2x the things you've done on my battery by the time yours dies.

ummm... it became a debate between iphone and sgs2 when you began the comparison. as for the poll. it seems that most users dont decide to take a look at whats running in the background whether it be a rouge app or about 30 useless battery draining widgets. so that poll is meaningless unless the user states exactly how they use there device and what they use on it.

With all of that running and syncing, what kind of battery life are you expecting? If you run a bunch of apps on your phone and expect to maintain the same battery life as when it's idle... That's just silly. I'm not trying to be inflammatory. I'm just being honest.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gtg465x:
Hey, wasn't trying to start an argument. I just found vl221's quoted 7 hour battery life with 2 hours of display on time pretty shocking compared to what I get, which is why I suggested that his phone is probably defective.

Here's my battery life for today... as you can see, I got more than he quoted and still had 65% left. I have 5 widgets on my home screens, one of which is the Accuweather widget that updates automatically. I sync everything in my Google account (Music, G+, Contacts, Gmail, Picasa, and Calendar) plus Facebook contacts. Use consisted of 1 call, a few texts, a bunch of web browsing and xda reading, and 20 minutes of listening to music with the screen off.

That better speed is not the phone, is because the skyrocket has a new sim and a new exclusive apn for 4g, if you swap the sgs2 sim to the skyrocket the data will not work because the sim and the account has no access to the new apn, is the same hspa radio plus lte radio plus new apn, and the benchmark you can see it, same results, 1.5 vs 1.2 .... but a least you have better data speed..

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Trumpex:
I have no desire for the Skyrocket, just like I have no desire for the new Nexus. the SGS2 is an awesome piece of hardware, learn the phone, learn the custom roms, OC it, tweak it and you have a tons of power in your hand. Maybe some stats are slightly better in the skyrocket, maybe a bit bigger screen, but seriously, 4.3 inch is perfect, still fits in my hand properly like a phone should. And I personally didn't like the T-Mobile 4.5" screen, felt awkward holding it as a phone. I pull out the phone and all the isheep are jealous "Wow, WTF is That?!?!?". Battery life is good on this phone, speeds are nice and quick, I'm super happy with my purchase. Of course tomorrow will always bring the next best thing, but I'm more then happy with what I got right now. This will easily last me another year or so, as long as ICS gets released by Sammy or a brave developer figures it out, I love this phone. And the SGS2 is a pretty popular phone obviously, so I don't think Sammy is going to forget about us anytime soon.

Downloads speeds are the only thing I would consider for the Skyrocket, but I'm not maxing out right now, so to me its of little value.

You can swap them, they're the same. If your sim card is orange and blue/green you have an LTE compatible sim. If it's blue and white you only have a 3g sim, and need a new one.

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciggy33:
Hi all,

I know this is my first post but the only reason I felt the need to do it is because I have run out of options to fix my Wildfire. I have scoured many forums to find a solution from the CyanogenMod forums through android to xda forums to no avail.

I am currently running the newly released CyanogenMod 7.1.0.1 and I'm experiencing the same problem that I had since upgrading to the 7.1 RC1. Basically the phone works normally after flashing a ROM but after a few weeks of usage I attempt to call someone and there is no sound on either side of the call. If I then leave the call and try to play any music it does not work and neither do the basic android sounds. Basically no sound at all. Now I have tried rebooting (I get back the sounds but as soon as I want to call someone the same thing occurs), pulling the battery and all the usual processes. I read somewhere that flashing the ROM again fixes it and that is true but the same thing occurs after a few weeks of usage, rendering my phone useless. Even flashing earlier backups does not work. So I am wondering if anyone has experienced something like this or if anyone could have an answer and solution to my problem.

Here is a detailed list of what I am currently running:

ROM: CyanogenMod 7.1.0.1

Radio: 3.35.20.10

Hboot: 6.01.1002

S-OFF

Customisations: V6 SuperCharger Update 9 Beta 6.3, 3G TurboCharger Installer Update 3 test 11, Kick Ass Kernelizer Installer Update 3 test5.

Thanks for any help.

There are a few. Miui releases every two weeks or so, ARHD, InsertCoin, Pyramid 3D, Senseay, and LEEDROiD release pretty frequently.
