For the purposes of attempting to fix the problem, I really would like some people to take some Shark for Root captures as described in my Known Battery Drainers thread.

With that data, the root cause of the problem might be identifiable.

So far I've only seen one capture, I really need more unless I can reproduce the problem myself.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] n7slc:
I'm also having battery issues but would like to try to fix it before giving up.

I've searched a bunch but can't find that thread. Not at home to try it on my PC so if you'll link it here, I'll do what I can to get some captures for you.

I read a possible solution on another forum and tried it with my SGS2 today and am amazed at the difference today in my battery life.

Worth a shot as it does not require anything more than charging your phone and pulling the battery.

Charge your phone to 100% with the phone off (hold the power button for 3 seconds or so until the menu comes up and select power off). When you reach 100%, unplug the charger and remove your battery (some said keep the battery removed for 90 seconds while others said 3-5 minutes). I left my battery out for 5 minutes or so. Put the battery back in and power on.

That was it. My Android OS went back to normal and the battery life today has been great if not better then with 2.3.6 than before I updated.

Screen grab of my current battery use after trying this method this morning is attached.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
Placebo effect - did nothing a plain old reboot would not have done.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] radeon962:
Quite possible, but still running on the same charge from this morning and am at 28% battery after 14+ hours of normal use which is all I expect (calls, texts and light web browsing during the day over data) and then couple hours of web use at night over Wi-Fi when at home.

The last few days I was charging the phone when I got home from the office if I wanted to use it at night. Android OS was way up in the 60+ range after I first updated OTA and today it has been under 20% and more near 15%, so I'll take it.

---------- Post added at 11:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:59 PM ----------

Come to think, I probably did not do a reboot after the update and could have been all that was needed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Demodave:
I did this and saw absolutely no change. 2.3.6 is draining my battery far faster than 2.3.4 ever did. The culprit is the Android OS running at 90%.

I read that it might be an issue with the wifi so I have turned that off and will report back if that seems to fix it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] chocodough:
I read on another forum that att and Samsung are trying to blame it on bad batteries and shipping out new batteries.

What a bunch of crap. People everywhere wouldn't suddenly all have bad batteries at the same time. Sounds like usual BS.

I personally think its just some bad coding that Samsung needs to figure out.

On a different note, I played with the Verizon Droid Razr yesterday. Man that is a really nice phone. I'm tempted to get it, but I work for att and get free cell service, so it wouldn't make sense to pay for Verizon service, even though I think their network is better.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Patsfan123:
Android OS is definately eating up the battery now. I think it does have to do with wifi, because it seems to be much improved with it off. I'll take a free battery as long as I don't need to exchange the old one.
[LG Revolution] haxerpaylay:
I have been researching roms for the lg revolution, and im almost positive that the bootloader is unlocked but i haven't been able to find a kernel that fits my needs/wants. I have already backed up the stock rooted rom and backed up all my gfs apps with titanium backup. I would like a rom thats asop, and a kernal that is in between 300 and 1000mhz and undervolted like crazy because my girlfriends phone dies in like 10 mins. I am coming from a droidx and ogdroid where im an expert so this phone is new territory for me.

Anyone have any ideas?

There are no ROMs for the Revolution that are AOSP. The only kernel we have is overclocked at 1500 by default. The kernel is undervolted though.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pnoyes1:
Hello, new member here but have been cruising xda website for awhile now since rooting/modding my Atrix. Nothing too serious.....root.....few minor mods......faux 1.3 OC kernel......original GB rom.

I tried using the new 1.45 OC kernel and it soft bricked my phone. I used ROM Manager to recover ROM. I also used Titanium Backup 'free version' to reinstall apps etc.

Problem is I wiped app/system data in Titanium Backup and now 'NO' security settings work at all......neither screen lock, PIN, pattern, password. Worse part of this is losing my finger print security....loved it! I tried everything.....deleting finger print profile......pull battery.....wipe Dalvik Cache........etc.

Anyone know how to restore security options on my phone? Maybe I should just tkae the plunge and load The Dark Side ROM.......
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zombies1337:
Try flashing another ROM (i.e. Dark Side as you suggested) and see what happens. Can't hurt.

[General Questions and Answers] Rtcw1337:
I plan to put a mobile on contract which means 24 months for me. Which of those is best suited for future-proof in terms of software?
[General Questions and Answers] Tune-:
Well the Galaxy Nexus will receive updates longer than the Galaxy S2, meaning Galaxy Nexus will have next generation Android update, and Galaxy S2 won't. Galaxy Nexus will also most likely get more support from Google and such since it's a vanilla (for the most part) Google phone. Galaxy S2 has better hardware specs, but Galaxy Nexus has better software and support. I went with the Epic 4G Touch because it's the best of the Galaxy S2 phones and I'd rather have unlimited data than Verizon's current 4GB for the price of 2GB deal. So future proof wise, Galaxy Nexus is probably your best bet since Epic 4G Touch won't have as much support even with ROMs.

The software issues shouldnt be looked at as a negative,if youre on xda then you know youll have access to better software anyway(custom roms).id go with better phone.

So... after flashing MikG v3.0 and trying it out for a day (not that this is related to mikg rom), I went back to Synergy RLS1. EVO FC's android processes now. Media, Market vendor, or Mail. Just whichever it feels like FCing. o_O

I've wiped all data, cleared my SD card of ghost folders, Flashed and reflashed. Still doing it. Also, I notice that my gallery and music apps take forever to load the mp3s and pics now possibly an SD read error? I've been running Synergy since June and not had this problem before.

Any ideas?

I don't know of any other options, unless it is an app that is causing all this (which I have no new apps that I haven't had in the last month(s))

Has this happened before to anyone >_>?

VERY Annoying. Can't use the phone for constant !FORCE CLOSE! windows

Did u restore any app data from backing up between roms?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] typhoonikan:
Thank you for your reply!

Nope. Not unless it has done it natively. Though, all my apps do download automatically after flashing Synergy.

How might I clear this?

I have Titatnium back up, though I don't use it. And astro, but I don't use the backup features on it either.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
In titanium when u choose batch restore select app only, try reflashing fresh don't restore from Google restore apps only thru tibu and see if you still get the FC issue, I'm not 100% sure but I think Google adds app data with the backup and some apps data cause issues between roms I've had issues both from sense to sense and from sense to aosp or vice versa from app data causing errors in processes and force closing random apps or processes

Hi everyone, as you all may know its Christmas! Merry Christmas! Anyways, i want to buy a kindle or nook tablet for my aunt as a present but the thing is that she lives in South America. Would the nook tablet work there? I ask because maybe the market doesnt work because of the IPs, since Netflix doesnt work in south america due to different IPs.

I am living in Germany and am using a rooted Nook Tablet. Unlike the Kindle Fire, the NT will allow you access to the B&N marketplace from outside the U.S. If you root, you get full access to the android marketplace without any issues. Unfortunately, if you're getting this to run Hulu or Netflix don't. It won't work unless you use a proxy service or VPN which until now the NT just does not yet do. The same thing applies if you sideload the amazon app store, it doesn't work.

I'm hoping for vpn setup like normal android can do, but as of right now, its a no go.

Happy Holidays

With regard to accessing the BN marketplace, how do you work around the need for a US-based credit card?

I'm asking because the gf got one, but has been unable to purchase anything (although she can access and view the store). I rooted her NT and put Android Market on it, but it would be good if she could buy the ebooks from BN too.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] gauloisez:
Living in Luxembourg I had the same problems as you or your girlfrind with my nook color. To add my credit card, i first had to use a valid US billing adress, second: buy and use an electronic gift card from bn.com via paypal. After having used the full amount i was asked to add my creditcard (same as paypal), and don't ask me how, my bn.com account now allows me to use my luxemburgish creditcard. All purchases however have to be made via vpn (to get a us-ip), and as the devices Nook, Nook Color and Nook tablet don't let you use vpn (even if rooted), you either have to do your purchases via vpn on a computer, smartphone or vpn enables tablet. Simply start your vpn connection, check your ip (has to be identified as US) an do the purchases via the bn.com website). I recommand using vpn express(available through itunes app store and very inexpensive if you want to do your first tries with vpn connections)

However if you want to use your Nook as if you where located in the US, it gets rather complicated and to some degree "expensive". As the nook(s) don't let you configure vpn connections, you will need a wireless access point, so you can surf through a vpn tunneld wlan.

To do so I connected a second router to the second lanconnector on my win7 pc and connect to the internet via adapter 1, started the vpn service and shared the vpn connection with the second lanadapter linked to my access point.

This works perfectly well for me and as I upraded to purevpn (much faster than the initial vpnexpress connection), I now can watch netflix, hulu and do my app, magazine and bookpurchases from any of my nook devices. (as long as I have the PC running and vpn connection enabled.

If anyone needs a more detailed explanation of how it was done, don't be afraid to ask me.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] iferlive:
Mine works very well, I did buy it Hawaii and now I came back to Mexico, I register my credit card (mexican) and can buy content from B&N store app, in Mexico I use a WRT Router with my VPN network configured wich has a San Francisco's IP, haven't tried with no VPN but I guess it should still work.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rawr4dj:
If you only know the answer to like just one question than just answer that one lol. Don't feel the need to answer all of my questions. Thank you for your time.

1. Is the TF Prime going to become the new flagship powerhouse Android® tablet?

*Like the Xoom once was, followed by the Sammy gTAB 10.1?*

2. Will we soon see a ICS aka Android 4.0 port any time soon?

*according to ASUS they will have an official ICS update for the TF Prime in early January of 2012, for some reason I doubt that, even though it shouldn't take them more than a month to push an update especially because they aren't like HTC or Sammy, with there extremely sophisticated Touch Wiz and Sense. That causes for application updates to the Android SDK, to be stripped and gutted in order to put there own skin on top, which takes even more time*

3. How good does the screen look with the Super IPS+, I believe that's what it is called.

*how does it compare to renowned screens on devices such as; The Samsung gTAB 7.0+ w/ its SAMOLED+, The Samsung GSII with Its SAMOLED+, The HTC Vivid I'm not sure what display it utilizes, the LG Nitro I think its called I could be wrong but its an LG phone with I believe a Super Nova something display?, and lastly my current phone the HTC Sensation 4G w/ it's qHD display.(In regards to movie quality, web browsing, pictures, Netflix & Hulu+ streaming, etc and stuff like that.)

4. Also had the tablet received root yet? And any custom roms created yet? (Rather they be in pre alpha/alpha/beta)

5. Lastly should I still get this tablet even if its not available completely till mid January ish? With CES In Vegas early January maybe something better will be announced? For mid spring?

Thank you for taking the time to answer my various questions in regards to the TF Prime. I'm just trying to get as much info as possible before dropping $650+ on this tablet.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] BarryH_GEG:
It's the first tablet to use a quad-core chip making it the current "flaghship." Others have announced quad-core tablets with release expected Q1. Whether they will be better than the Prime is subjective and will depend on their features. Expect to find out more January 11th at CES.

Asus has been one of the best manufacturers with updates. Based on the importance of them to be first with quad-core I can't imagine them not being one of the first to introduce ICS.

The unique feature of the Prime's display is what Asus has named "super bright." It's far brighter than other displays currently available and would seem the best for daylight use. Asus doesn't make their own displays - they buy them from either Sharp, AIO, or LG the same as everyone else. Only Samsung makes their own displays. Read through people's comments and they're generally satisfied with the display although some have said the colors on the G-Tab are more vibrant and there have been some QC issues.

People have rooted it and lost root after Asus's first update. Do a search.

Personal choice. If you need a tablet now, are an Asus fan, or want the keyboard then buy it now. If you have the time there's no harm in waiting until CES which is only three weeks away to see what tablets are going to look like in 2012.
