[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] f1n3st:
I live in boston and I just got the phone on saturday and was wondering why i coudnt get 4g, the sales rep (whome was a close friend of mine) said it might have been because of the weak signal inside the building so i checked outside and still had no connection. I flashed to starbursts rom and still had no 4g even though it showed 4 bars. was going to unroot and return the phone today but i guess not!

Apps like Bump are not in background and receive messages as well (push...).

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randomchars:
There's no reason not to. If the app stays in memory than it can start faster. And no it's not eating your battery unless it shows up on the battery usage screen.

Ok, but sometimes when i open browser or other apps the system close Go launcher ex, i suppose to free some memory... If i have in memory apps i don't want to, the system can close the app i don't want to close...

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] randomchars:
The system probably prioritizes whatsapp over the launcher because it needs to be active to receive messages.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kafepuya:
Are there any disadvantages to having the phone plugged in a frequently as possible (e.g. charging over night, car charging, charging while at work)? I have been favoring 897 leaks over 9000 roms mainly because of battery life. I have been a fan of Apex roms and now that A11 is out I want to give it a try but I know I won't get the same battery life as Illuminance. Could I damage my Captivate from frequent charging?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aex90832:
Now i could be wrong, but frequently charging *may* reduce the life of the battery....i believe every batter has a certain amount of "charging cycles" it can have before the battery begins to lose charge quicker...again, i could be wrong..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
True, batteries do have a certain account of charge cycles, but a charge cycle is a 100% drain and back up again.

So down to 50 then charge, 75 charge, 75 charge, is only 1 full cycle.

So whether you wait to charge til it's dead enough to not run the phone (it actually shuts off before true 0% to save the life of the battery) or you grab some spare juice when you can, your battery should have about the same life span.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] capocaccia:
Ya this is true but I find I that I get much better battery life if I do a bump charge. Ive charged to 100% on the phone screen, turned off the phone, plugged the charger back in, and had it charge for another half hour until it hit 100%. So I dont know what it is about charging in that fashion that works for me but it really seems to help. I also am pretty good about cycling my battery 0-100 100-0 so that may help.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snow_fox:
bump charging will kill battery life long term..

Also, be careful with car chargers. Some of them are designed to charge faster which will also shorten the over all life of the battery.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prostar:
Lithium batteries don't like to be drained fully. The best time to charge is 30-40%. Also lithium doesn't like the "fast" charge. Basically be easy on the drain/charge/level and it will last longer.

The 1/2 hour you're talking about is because the last 5-10% takes the longest. You can actually charge from ~40%-80%+ very shortly due to the way Lithium works.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
As I said above, the phone shuts off before the battery reaches 0%. You notice it still has enough power to run the charging animations even though its too dead to boot.

the phone also stops charging at 100% let drain to 95 and back up, to prevent overcharging.

both are to save the lifespan of the battery.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MidniteMarauder:
Discharging below three volts will cause damage. Charging over four point two volts will cause damage. Charging at a greater rate than one C will cause damage. One C is equal to the capacity of the cell. Our stockers at 1500mAh should not be charged at a rate greater than one point five amps. I believe the stock charger outputs 800mAh, or point eight amps. Any damage to the cell will definitely shorten life. The more you use a battery the faster it will die, true with any type. Hope this helps someone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aus_Azn:
I don't really see this as a matter of choice. My phone dies daily, so I have to charge it daily; I have to bite whatever happens with it anyway. If it helps, I got my phone on launch and have been using the same battery through my warranty replacements. My battery maxes out at roughly 15 hours of moderate use, 20 of light use.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sx4:
frequent charging reduce battery life so it is better to charge when ur battery is left with 15% or below and charge it completly
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chappatti:
+1

This is very true of Lithium ion batteries. They like to be kept topped up constantly. Not letting it go to 0% consantly helps. This is very different from NiMH or NiCd, where the "memory" effect requires you to completely discharge the battery before next charge.

The best way is to just put the phone on charger whenever you are not using it - if ever :rolleyes: - just plug it in and let it sit till you use next time.....
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
FFS how many times must I say it? THE BATTERY NEVER REACHES 0%!!!

There is ALWAYS some amount of charge even when the phone won't come on.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juliobahar:
interesting topic and even more this reply. One new thing I leant on my learning curve, I must say.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MidniteMarauder:
Very true. If you discharge a lithium cell below three volts, you run the risk of it catching fire or exploding.

Should've mentioned earlier that as the battery degrades, it loses capacity. This is what causes them to seem they're not "lasting as long" or "draining faster".

Best SetCPU profile: No profile. Uninstall that **** unless you REALLY know what you're doing.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itachi1706:
First off, they are governors not profiles. Second, don't tamper with anything you don't know. Also, Google them and you should get the definations.

1. SmartassV2 is an improvement from Smartass and is supposedly more efficient in battery life.

2. It is SmartassV2 but more aggressive. (Link explaining smoothass here)

4. InteractiveX is Interactive but it locks the CPU at min freq when screen off. (Link here post #122)

6. Userspace is useless for setCPU. It's another way for applications to set the CPU speed that SetCPU does not use. (Source here)

9. Performance just clocks your CPU speed at max freq.

I found out about them through Google, so it is possible to use Google to search.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shankly1985:
Completely disagree, I have used setcpu since first Rooting my phone and without it my battery dont last very long.

I use Max 998-Min128 Ondemand gov. profiles screen off Max 456-Min 128 when I check time in state I have %60 @128 meaning when my phone is sleep mode am saving a hell lot battery.

And %60 is only because I have just installed a fresh RoM, ON my last RoM I had this @%87 128

In-call Max 456-MIN 128 both profile set to ONdemand.

Setcpu dont work its magic right away, you have to give it time, sometimes a day or two till you see the proper % kicking in.

[Windows 8 General] sgtakase:
Does anyone know how to control the brightness better in Windows 8? I know that you go and disable/reenable the driver to fix it but I was wondering if there was a more permanent solution, as that is the main thing keeping me from switching completely to the preview as my main OS (with my Win7 partition there for backup)

I am on a 2011 Sony Vaio SA 2.4GHz i5 4GB ddr3 ram, more or less standard

Hope someone has an answer!
[Windows 8 General] GazaIan:
Windows 8 DP is not designed to be a main OS. That's why it's a developer preview.

Hover over the Start Button, select settings, and brightness will be one of the settings in the sidebar that slides out.
[Windows 8 General] sgtakase:
duh

I KNOW it isn't made to be a main OS, and if you read my post you would've known that. Besides, that's not what I was asking. Most if not everyone using the DP knows how to do that by now.

Please don't reply in such a smug way if you don't know what I am asking
[Windows 8 General] technolust109:
yeh, im having the same problem too, there are some applications online that could do it, but the problem is that it isnt hardware controlled, as in when you use the program to dim the brightness, your actual screen brightness stays the same, i suppose you can call it a tint, but it doesnt effect battery life in anyway, so it is a major issue that microsoft needs to fix fast.
[Windows 8 General] GazaIan:
Your brightness control most likely isn't supported by Windows 8... My software brightness controls change my brightness just fine. Not tinting, I mean actual brightness control.

[Windows 8 General] technolust109:
because i have to uninstall the drivers and install them again inorder to use them, is it just for intel Graphics cards? or people haveing issues with AMD and Nvidia cards too?
[Windows 8 General] sgtakase:
I can control the brightness just fine after disabling/enabling the WDDM 1.2 Driver
[Windows 8 General] technolust109:
thats not the problem, the thing is, we are all trying to find a way to control it WITHOUT disabling the driver.
[Windows 8 General] sgtakase:
no duh

That's the EXACT REASON I posted this question -__-. . . . .
[Windows 8 General] l3v5y:
From my understanding, the sensors API and the way OS behaves broke compatibility with the W7/Vista Sensors API, things like brightness sensors and accelerometer drivers need to be rewritten to (properly) support Windows 8, and that will require hardware makers to either do it, or release the specs.

Been looking around for ages and I can't find a proper way to root this build..

I've tried older kernels, different methods as well as different 1 click and non flash methods. Zergrush, gingerbreak etc.

I can't find any way to root this build. I really need root... Kind of makes the 25€ I spent on rooted apps totally useless without it :/ on top of that I need to be able to use Titanium backup and other dev tools without issues.

Has anyone been able to sucessfully root this build? I don't mind if there is no stock kernel avaliable. I just want an unsecured one so I can sucessfully root the build. I've looked everywhere and I can't find one.

Has someone made one? If not, will someone please make one. It's the newest official downloadable firmware for the SGS2.

P.S. I don't want a modded build rom that is already rooted. Because I dabble in some dev work and such I can't use a rom..

Thanks for any info, sorry if this has been asked somewhere but I've seen other people asking for an unsecure kernel for this version. Haven't found one anywhere or a way to root without...

Thanks in advance!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] It_ler:
I rooted my phone running on the same ROM (XWKJ3) by flashing Chainfire's CF-Root kernel for XW_KJ3.

So, that should work fine.

If not, Intratech described another rooting method (using the zergRush exploit) in his Quick Root Guide in the first post of his Official Firmware thread => http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1075278

This method seems to work very elegant, as you won't get a yellow triangle and the binary counter will not be incremented.

But I did not test this method myself.

Alternatively, you can flash another rooted kernel, which is compatible with the ROM.

Now I am running on SpeedMod K2-18 kernel, which is rooted and it works fine on my stock ROM XWKJ3 too.

Good luck !
