I bought Sanyo Eneloop 5000 mah from Bangkok for Rs: 4500 been using it for a year now and still manages to give me nearly 2.5 charges.

The reason I bought this model is because it has 2 USB ports with current value of 1 mAmp cumulative meaning charge speed is same as the original wall charger and can be used for for my other devises as well(this includes a 6" metal blade fan for 1 hour atleast :P).

No external battery pack will last you according to rated value there are many factors to consider, especially the lovely 47 degree Celsius we have in Lahore will cause performance deterioration 10 to 30%. 30% from most of the China products maybe even more.

I would recommend not to go for cheap products when power is concerned because V, I and frequency levels are never properly controlled via low cost circuits and you end up paying more because they usually damage long term battery health and eventually the device.

I know there are not many options to choose from in our markets most places are flooded with lowest quality stuff that China produces, so you might need to cough up a few extra rupees and go for Energizer.

I have been using cloud for 2 months now. My works requires me to travel to almost 70 different cities, towns and villages across Punjab and Sindh and PTCL cloud is my new best friend :)

The device itself is poor quality I had to get the battery replaced after a months usage this might be because of some manufacturing defect but the replacement one is working just fine.

Signals issues are a myth works quiet well almost everywhere and I'm talking about villages like Piran Ghaib, Dour and Shershah places most Pakistanis have never even heard of :P

I got it on the black Friday sale from amazon for I think $30-35... its retail then was $70... so that was like Rs.3000... its price has apparently dropped now... and is $41...

Unfortunately just today I let a friend borrow it... I'll post pics for you when I get it back tomorrow if you want... but in the mean time here is the link on Amazon...

http://www.amazon.com/New-Trent-IMP70D-Thunderbolt-Blackberry/dp/B002D4IHYM/ref=zg_tr_515383011_6

The reason I got this was because of 2 main things... it has 2 USB ports , one for 1Amp and 2.1Amp rating... hence for phones or higher power requiring products like ipads etc... also a very imp thing was you can charge it via a Normal Micro Usb cable/charger... most battery packs I saw required a special pin adaptor... this can easily be charged by your standard samsung charger with no issues... HUGE plus point...

Its size is a bit big when it comes to length and width... but it is after all 7000mah... but the plus is its thin... unlike the other ones id seen... which are bulky on all dimensions and very heavy... definitely recommended...

cocky much? if you can understand them why not the others

and i'm not talking about edge the brothers question was for evo wifi.

and im guessing most people who have a gs2 probably own a laptop aswell so the wifi device is well worth it.

you can purchase it for 8000 rupees inclusive 3 months internet charges.

Yesterday around 10:30 at night .. After little use while stting in the A.C room ... My phone shows the temp. Of 67 C.

With Ur help I want to ruleout that is it normal phone temp in islamabad summer or something wrong with my s2.

Regards.
[Galaxy S II General] NOMIOMI:
heating up of sgs2 is not depend on weather condition its depend on the usage of the phone
[Galaxy S II General] DrunkFuX666:
Are you sure it said 67°C...?? That's quite high... and as far as I remember, the temperature displayed on the S2 is for the battery and not the actual processor...

Also little use is too vague... depends on what you were doing exactly... some games require lots of system resources which heat up the phone a lot in just 5 mins...

Just keep a check on your phone temp...

Also if the battery was on charge at the same time, charging heats up the battery as well...

gps lock time on lpg is good..but at first its gonna take a while..prolly 2 3 mins..its a sort of gps initialising delay..but after that it lock in about 15 secs for me..good enuf i say...or use faster fix from google play if you facing constant delays..

AND TO ALL PAKISTANI USERS

if you guys wanna check the stability of your undervolts then ive started this thread where theres n easy way of doin it..try it out..and let me know if it helps...unfortunately this method only works for siyah as gokhanmoral is the only one supporting right now..

besides that of u need anyhelp regarding battery life and tweaks then feel free to contact...i personally with my settings get around 7 hrs of screen time on stock battery with siyah 3.2.7.2 and wanamlite 12..if you wanna try my setting(which for me are stable) then leave a post

mate personally speaking aokp have got loads of stability issue...aokp drivers modules are not that perfectly fitting with the hardware as it is not a S2 specific version...besides its greatly understood that if you want tweaking options..themes and basically are not a battery, stability freak then and then only aokp or aosp are fitting for you..otherwise stock, as it is realsed by samsung for samsung , is perfect for all purpose...!

bottom line...its what your taste buds dig:P

Guys, i have never used gps on my phone! How do we use it? Is it possible to use without gprs? Or if we have internet access at start but throughout the drive no, then possible?
[Galaxy S II General] yusufjee:
You dont need internet for this. Just switch on the GPS thats all.
[Galaxy S II General] yusufjee:
Ok i have tried it now but all it does is upload image on their server and send link more like a storage service. That works if you are sending MMS but how about receiving. If someone sends an MMS through phone messaging app then i cant retrieve it.
[Galaxy S II General] DrunkFuX666:
To track your position you don't need gprs tho if you do have an internet connection it locks to your location faster... but make sure the GPS is on...

What you DO need internet for is to load the maps... without that your position will be tracked but no map to show you...

You can precache the map tho from before using the labs in gmaps...

Firstly were not a family... were a cult :p

Secondly you should really use the search button to look for the answers for these questions as most are already given... or... Google it...

Thirdly the few questions I'll answer that I remember from your long list of questions are as follows......

The plain i9100 is considered to be better than the i9100G in terms of more mods and compatibility with various roms etc, but essentially its the same phone for the average user...

There are plenty of Newbie guides on xda and you should search for them yourself and reading up on it properly before jumping into the realm of flashing so you can understand by yourself the risks involved and what to do IF you face a problem...

Ics for the s2 is in my opinion much better than GB... but yes there still are some compatibility issues with a few games and apps buy they should be solved soon enough...

Themes you need to look for yourself...

And best rom and kernel is all based on ones personal opinion...

I use cm9 and I am quite satisfied with it... hence would recommend that...

I was on Stock 4.0.4. Then i flashed Touch Recovery then Slim ICS Rom. then wiped cache n dalvik etc. n when i clicked reboot in recovery, it turned off forever... :(
[Galaxy S II General] jim.j:
You should have googled a bit or used the search option or should have seen the stickies in general. 4.0.4 kernel comes with emmc_erase enable. Meaning, if you have a bad chip, almost all Galaxy S II and Note have, and you wipe anything in recovery, you phone is dead. I am sorry, nothing can be done.. If you are under warranty, go to service center, tell them you were trying to update on odin and update stopped and phone didn't start after that. They will not come to know about root as phone wouldn't turn on and then they would replace your motherboard.

Replacing motherboard is the only solution.
[Galaxy S II General] danishjamil:
I've come to know after searching alot. that there's a solution called JTag repair. By "MobileTechVideos"... But they are in USA. They do it in $50.. May be my first priority should b searching market for a solution my self.. i know it's not dead.. n Alas it's not in warranty...

Thanks for suggestion
[Galaxy S II General] jim.j:
That's alright.

I don't think JTag will work, it's about changing PIT files and others. Still hard brick phone can somehow be recovered by JTag, but afaik not the ones after a brick from superbrick bug. It render your motherboard and NAND incapable of writing, reading any sort of data. Change in the only solution I guess, but I do hope you find some thing else.

[Galaxy S II General] NOMIOMI:
here is the method how to check the cpu temperature of sgs2

How to?

install system tuner pro along with notification package and enable it in settings to monitor the temperature on notification bar.

alternatively you can also use system tuner pro widgets to monitor it on your homescreen.

in the screenshot white temperature widgets shows the battery temperature

monitoring without any app ( for free ) : u can use adb or terminal

su

cat /sys/devices/platform/s5p-tmu/temperature

open system tuner go to setting -notification package - tap on notification package then it will open web page that have many packages choose white or black cpu temp and tap on it it get download it then go to downloads folder with file manager and install it as normal app then go back to notification package setting then tap on it under installed packages and wait for 10-30 second and it will be on notification drawer

download the package
