Try Refreshing...

I know that I have found that the graph does not always refresh. So you might want to try going back one page from the graph (the page with the list of processes and small graph at the top), hit the menu key, and select refresh.

Else, great battery life for you :-)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 21cdb:
I'm on MIUI and I see the same thing. It can take a couple of hours before it drops below 100%. It seems to drop faster at lower battery percentages.

Sometimes after I take the phone off the charger the percentage actually goes up.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mrmercedes:
what version of MIUI are you on? Also what kernal?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Alucardis666:
You guys are lucky. my battery doesn't do that at all. XD
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] hobbs:
I had the exact same issue with my battery. It would stay 100% for a long time then begins to drop. It would never go below 50 to 60% before I plugged it in at night . I thought it was awesome battery life since my former captivate would be at 20% at the end of the day . But I realized that battery meter was never accurate. it did not matter what kernel or rom i tried. I ended up exchanging the phone and i now have accurate battery meter.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 21cdb:
GalnetMIUI 2.11.26. Same thing with the CM7 kernel and the Siyah kernel.

Have you guys been following the drama with Carrier IQ?

I'm curious, do any of the Vibrant custom and/or stock roms have this program installed, and if so how can we uninstall it?

Most of these ROMs WILL since they are built from source.... ROMs like CM7 or MIUI will not be an issue.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dan0zone:
When this broke a couple of weeks ago, the original article pointed to just Sprint..

As you might know already ,Sprint has openly admitted that they share their customers info with the government ... so this would go hand in hand with this tracking software .... Don't be surprised if its found in the Sprint IPhone ... So the short answer, no ..

Yeah, I heard about that Carrier IQ. Pretty messed up stuff.

Also to enable YouTube videos you only copy a certain chunk of the URL. For example if the video's URL is "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjL-xE_6avY" you only copy the part after the "=" sign. Which in the example URL's case would be "QjL-xE_6avY". Once you've copied that part of the URL paste it into the message box, highlight it, and then hit the YouTube button (). You now can spread the magic of YouTube :)

Example:

[YOUTUBE]QjL-xE_6avY[/YOUTUBE]

Actually all data you access on T-Mobile also goes through the government, not just Sprint. If you don't believe me, find out your IP addy on your phone. Then go do a whois IP search. You will see it is being routed through the DOJ.

hi all,

As the moment I use KI8 PDA with KI4 PHONE, and I am very happy with this PHONE firmware.

I want to install new 2.3.6 that is delivered with KK5 PDA and KI3 PHONE.

Anyone have already tested the KK5 and KI4 combination ?

is there any risk to keep KI4 PHONE with new KK5 PDA ?

thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donalgodon:
You'll likely have no issues with either. I have KI4, which is the default for the KK5 release, and everything is fine.

Nothing like taking a beautiful phone and making it look cheap. I honestly think the battery bulging out looks horrible. It is too bad no one makes a case like the morphie juice pack. To each their own I guess.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tenaciousj:
Wish someone could make a slim extended battery, like 2200 mah or so but without a huge bulge on the back of the phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] latinmaxima:
That would be ideal. Samsung has a 2000mah for the european model but of course it is a different size than ours.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SayWhat10:
$20 with free amazon shipping is great price!!

my only gripe about it is protection,guess i will have to see what the TPU case looks like for it

and for folks that always say its big and bulky, umm, thats pretty much true for all slim phones with an aftermarket large size battery

You're never going to see a huge battery(mah amount) contained in the tock sized battery cover

So its a lil odd to be saying oh wow, its big/bulky. That should be a given....

the most ive seen for standard stock size is 2000mah

and that runs over $50, which is only like 9%battery increase, when you can get about double that for only $19.99

again, great deal to me
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ac3bot:
Same Battery here for < $10

$10 3800 mah battery w/ door

OP... Still liking the battery? Found and ideas for a case? If I could find a kickstand silicon case for this thing, I'd be a happy camper...

Glad to help! I got a bit too excited and sprung for the $20 battery/door before looking around. They appear to be identical... I'm sure they all came out of the same factory in China.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] expertzero1:
that 10 dollar one is the same one i bought from a china seller 2 weeks ago lol..

but im using the seidio battery atm, 3200 mah, last me about a day 20 hours on average with medium-heavy usage at times.

If i use my phone a lot a lot, it would last me about a day, which is better than stock

Cant wait for this seidio battery to crap out so i can use these 3800 mah lol

Sweet, and the case for seidio fits these after market extended batteries for 10 bucks!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 88cavalierz24:
got mine today and put it in and had a 56% charge, 13 hours later 3+hours on screen time and i just killed it, cant wait to see once it is fully charged and conditioned.

Side note anyone with the extended tpu case have a problem with it? mine is loose on the right side, like you can see a gap between case and phone, left side is fine.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cuezaireekaa:
mine was too. take out the phone and bend in BOTH sides into the case a bit. it wont hurt it. just fold them in kinda tight and then put the phone back in. should be snug now.

Why does this battery need conditioned? I thought li-ion shouldn't be cycled? Conditioning this battery, which the directions that come with this battery say to do, go against everything I just read about li-ion batteries.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] carnivalrejectq:
just received my battery and case and same problem , its hard to press the power button and seems like it made the volume buttons more sensitive because i end up touching them when trying to press the power button......i think i read a comment on amazon saying that its because the case is for a 3500 mah battery , tho i dont see how that could make a difference

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] carnivalrejectq:
phone has been on 22 hours with regular usage after first discharge , crazy , for the other 4-5 discharges it says to do , is that safe to let the battery fully die? And how is everyone doing that , fully charging with phone on or off?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 88cavalierz24:
first time letting the battery kill itself without me helping it, just using it normally, im at 1 day 6hours and 20% left. Also this is my 3rd cycle.

Think it's about done now. I like when it went back up a few times lol weird.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
I just received another one today. I haven't tried the cover yet but I'm disappointed that they changed the battery door cover. Its thinner, obviously flexes more, matte and reminds me of the seidio quality for extended battery doors. I should try it to see how well it fits but I like the older one that's thicker plastic and glossy.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bman55:
The one from ebay is it new? Does anyone know?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] trantua4:
The charger is finicky to work with since it uses pins that you have to align to the proper terminals of the battery. The case broke on mine within a few months and the plastic part that splits the terminals of the battery broke. I tried contacting the company and no response after a few weeks. There's a warranty, but if they don't respond then it's a useless one. It's unfortunate because i get great battery life with it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pbassjunk:
Lithium ion batteries don't need to be conditioned, but the conditioning process updates the phone sensors to calculate new min/max readings.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kwan:
I'm pretty satisfied with this battery. I never have to worry about running out of battery during the day anymore. I usually end the day with 40% or so, where before I was down to nothing.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 88cavalierz24:
what about total time? my phone was down to 58% yesterday then my wife used 4 hours of onscreen time and it was at 16% by the end of the night. Total time was only 16 hours on battery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ttrain721:
I've been on the battery for 14h 14m with 38% remaining, 2h 13m of onscreen time. I don't understand how people are getting 5-7 hrs of onscreen time with a stock battery.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Carbajal3009:
I get about 19hrs with stock battery and about 4 and a half hours of on screen time. Seems like you guys got all bad extended batteries. My two extended each last me about 2 days
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ttrain721:
I got 4 1/2 hrs of on screen time yesterday from 100-0%.

I fully discharge my battery and charge to . Calibrate it and it always says it recalibrated it x % but never a noticeable punt.

Hello all. We've just read through most of the pages sorry we don't regularly monitor this board. If anyone has an issues please contact is directly we would be glad to assist you.

On another note we now have the White cover available for those of you with the White Epic Touch. Right now we just have the glossy white cover and we will have a matte cover in another week. I'm not sure Amazon is going to sell the white version but it is up on Ebay.

Regarding a white TPU case it's something we'd like to do but have had some problems in testing. Unfortunately in our testing the oils in our hands have been turning our white cases yellow in about 3 weeks time so until we can figure that out we won't have a white TPU case available quite yet.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] acrown:
The vender provided instructions state that for the first few days you must let the battery drain completely then plug the phone to the charger. The vender also states that the battery is Lithium-ion.

I found the following info online, Google "Condition your new cell phone's battery" and inform yourself >>>

"The only time you should ever intentionally fully discharge a Li-ion battery is if your phone is not properly reading the battery. In other words, if you go from 100% -> 90% in ten minutes but go from 90% -> 80% in one hour with the same amount of usage, that means your phone is not reading the battery output evenly. If this is the case, then fully discharging your battery once and then recharging it can fix the issue of your phone not reading the battery properly. Take note, however, this full discharge/recharge won't increase your battery life -- it will only ensure your phone reads the battery properly.

People often confuse Li-ion and NiCad batteries and try to condition Li-ion batteries by charging/discharging them 4-6 times. Trying to condition a Li-ion battery like it is a NiCad battery (i.e. charging/discharging the Li-ion battery 4-6 times) hurts the Li-ion battery more than helps it. So, be sure to condition your new cell phone's battery, but be sure to condition it properly. Otherwise, you may be doing more harm than good. If you are not sure what type of battery you have, read the labels on the battery - they will always say whether the battery is Lithium-ion or Nickel-cadmium."

so should we, or not, Try to condition this battery? if so, it leads me to believe this battery is "not" truly a Lithium-ion Battery. If it is a Lithium-ion Battery, why does the VENDER provided instructions state charging/discharging them 4-6 times?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] acrown:
Battery monitor widget pro has never read this battery @ more than 2973mAh, Trexcell states that it is 3800mAh. This is only roughly 1000mAh more than the oem battery, disappointing.

For twice the thickness atleast give us twice the mAh. Once it starts getting older it's like having the oem and twice the thickness.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] donsh00tmesanta:

im going to post some screens to let you guys know that some of you may have a bad batt.

i was playing around all day yesterday on the phone trying to drain it and i was streaming bluetooth music, played some video games and youtube, a whole lot of power amp and a lot of browsing as you can see by my usage. and anything with sound was going straight to my bluetooth.

i usually get more hours with similar screen-on time. but i barely stopped messing with it yesterday.

imo, this battery lasts a very long time. but i did the conditioning that was in the instructions, the best i could.

im on blazer 4.0 with stock kernel and wifi and gps on. el29 modem

i hope this clears some things up and maybe trexcell can respond and replace those batteries. because i really think this battery is well worth its price and beyond. sorry such a long post, just trying to help some of you out.

im totally not trying to brag about super battery life. i just feel you guys should be getting more out of it.

maybe your modems and roms? (possibly?) ...when i went to ice cream, i had crazy drain... well it was worse than this el29 rom and btw, i have 149 apps installed with sync on as well.
