Hi friends,

Is there any specific method which can be tried to stop the bootloop issue. Let it be for any reason but one method would be the best choice to try for starters. Hard that reboot might fix it.. It helped me to fix one issue but generally, bootloop is something which annoys me. .Any sort of help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hello,

I can't post in the BlindIce topic so I hope it's fine here.

I've seen only good reviews about the battery, that's the main reason I installed this ROM, but I seem to have a problem, my battery drops like crazy. In ~2h it already went down to 86%, and all I did was send 2 SMS. On Endymion I didn't have this problem.

And I also have a problem with the stock browser, it's moving like a snail, but the main problem is the battery, firefox/chromw is working fine so I can live with that.

I'll upload the battery log after I get home, if needed.
[HTC Desire S] GGLDN:
i was also very happy with it despite minor bugs but eventually many things sent me back to endymion i can guarantee pretty soon you'll be back on endy, ics roms are nice but until the kernel comes out there isnt really one that can rival endy

anyway back on topic, check things like widgets? especially things like youtube widget i just took mine off, having it there means its connected to the net cycling through the subscriptions constantly, thats an example most widgets add to drain quite well, check your syncs, which app syncing for how long, can you do it manually etc, weather apps are they syncing to frequently, which apps are using location? using better battery stats i found google locations is used in many things without me even knowing, all of these things should be checked and configured on any rom, there is nothing really specific, maybe your 3g is using up the battery? try switching to gsm only.. finally have you calibrated the battery or more specifically the phone; so it reads the battery accurately.. thats all the things i can think of off head to help
[HTC Desire S] ToXiC313:
Thanks for your reply.

Anyway, all the config was done and there was no widget running so I guess it was something with the kernel/ROM that my phone didn't like, considering that I'm probably among the few or the only one which had such an issue.

And like 3h ago the battery was hot as hell for no reason, only Y!M was running, it literally burned my hand, there's still a little red spot, so idk what was the reason or what happend but I went back to endy, after the 3.0 kernel will be out, I'll try again, until then thanks and keep up the good work @devs.

The topic can be closed.
[HTC Desire S] pR13S7:
Same problem with that rom :(

After 15 minutes of listening to music battery drains from 100% to 75%
[HTC Desire S] dr.higgins:
Widgets

Any widgets (or sync's) running on your phone?

If so - how many and what kind?
[HTC Desire S] zedlor:
The battery isn't that bad for me but on all of the ICS ROM's that I've used the battery drain issue is quite bad. Then again, I was using Virtuous Affinity for a while and the battery wasn't brilliant on that either so I've come to the conclusion that I will probably require a new battery soon.

But still, the battery on my phone on BlindICE has been better than on yours but I'm reluctant to switching from it now :p
[HTC Amaze 4G] kishon120:
This is so crappy. The other day I turned my screen on and it got bright . Then all of a sudden it got very dim . And has stayed that way since . I'm guessing its a hardware issue because it even stays dim on startup at the HTC screen . Flashed new Rom and everything... Flashing a Rom was the hardest part because you can't turn up screen brightness in recovery .... Good theng I have insurance . Any of you guys experienced this on previous phones ? :mad::mad:
[HTC Amaze 4G] howhi50:
I had a customer with a sensation have the same problem. We factory reset the device and the screen was still dim. A soft reset by pulling out the battery and holding down the power button while the screen was off magically fixed it. Maybe that will work for you.
[HTC Amaze 4G] kishon120:
no go man :/ . But i talked to customer service and once i told the guy on the phone that my phone flickered then went out . He said oh that is a automatic replacement. Guess its a bad hardware problem.
[HTC Amaze 4G] freakboy13:
well hopefully if you send this in under warranty, they dont say anything bout your s-off. I have been curious about the whole s-off thing vs. htc warranty, since you are using a slight hardware mod to achieve it?YEs I know it's not a true mod but HTC could claim since you touched the physical phone and altered the state of via physical means your warranty is void.

Maybe you should make sure the creen CANT come back on lol.

I was gonna sugest maybe now we have someone who can use the screen removal tutorial and see how well it goes!

Hopefully to mo doesnt say ..."oh hia...no im sorry we are out of the amaze(cough)...would you like a one s instead???"

:rolleyes:
[HTC Amaze 4G] kishon120:
With all the drama in this forum i wouldnt mind lol :D:D:D:D . But the new one should be here on tuesday. Ill just look to see ways to get S-On and flash the stock RUU. Can they actually tell you touched the physical piece with a bread bag wire. I doubt it lol.

FML, the American LTE version is gimped! F YOU SAMSUNG! So who else is looking at the next HTC phone? Seriously, if it's not a Samsung Exynos, I'm not going NEAR it.

The official word I got from Samsung is that the specs for the USA ATT SG3 haven't actually been confirmed yet, so there's some small hope.(small.)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] gsrrr:
We have a S3 forum now
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Optimus-Prime:
I really dont know who would buy that phone. Samsung really screwed it up. visual wise. the back looks like a cheap phone. it is round. i was really expecting something else from samsung. i had money saved for it. but im gonna take it to HTC instead and import one of those HTC one X in black. it is really a bad looking phone it looks cheap. nothing about it makes say og hot dam look at that. the i777 looks way better.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:
Agreed. As with every other Galaxy S line version, I expect the American version (and different carrier designs as well) to look differently. In my opinion, AT&T has always had the more aesthetically pleasing of each iteration (Captivate and our device, in comparison with the Fascinate, etc.). I'm not sure this is salvageable though lol.

In regards to the HTC One X, I guess you don't want the AT&T version?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] silver91342:
I am hoping At&t just might release 2 again as with the Skyrocket and OG but thats looking grim. Depending on how much the At&t costs vs. the International, I might just sell the OG S2 and just import, but the S4 chip does seem fast and I am in an area of LTE.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kamots:
^^^^^^ exactly
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] j510:
I like the new s3. Its candy. Og Hspa + quad exynos. Not getting it tho just got my s2 last November so it would be dumb to replace this great phone so soon . Bring on the Note plus next year!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Red5:
Now Im really glad I bought the OneX. :D

Lets hope they make the S IV better.

Now, for my thoughts on the SIII... The only thing that got my attention was that half of the announcement was all software related tweaks and improvements. But its still TouchWiz. They made TW hook into the phone deeper than ever and its ugly. I feel they relied more on software and less on hardware.

Samsung should have taken a page from HTC's playbook and scaled back (like HTC did with Sense4) instead of driving the roots of TW even further into the core. Just look how ugly the messaging app is or how laggy and ugly the photo album was when doing burst shot. If they are going to integrate TW into everything, at least make it aesthetically pleasing to the eye.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kennonk:
If they sell an Exynos based version in the US subsidized then I will buy it. I don't live in an LTE area and I get solid 4-11MB/s with my SGS2 which is more than sufficient for my needs. I download AOKP and CM9 directly to my phone and it only takes a couple mins and that is the only time my data speeds are taxed even a little. The need some people have for 20+ MB/s connections seems crazy to me I don't get it. I would MUCH rather have the faster CPU. If there is no US Exynos version of the SGS3 I will probably just wait until 2013 to upgrade.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] secretasianman:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Optimus-Prime:
I am very picky about how my phones look. the S3 was on buy list no matter (i was expecting Samsung to come up with a better design than the crap they released), now way in hell i am going to spend on that phone. I hate oval looking phones. HTC One X is oval, but it way better looking than the S3 i got to give it to HTC on this one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Red5:
I love my new OneX :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] s0ulja:
You know maybe I'm just a fanboy but I'm sick and tired of people calling the phone ugly, like how many black square slabs do you have to see before you've had enough? I for one am for the new look, I like the ergonomic nature look of it. Sure it didn't blow me away but it's growing on me with every picture and video I see. Oh and for people complaining about TW I really think Samsung focused on the right area for the phone, it's software rather than it's hardware. I mean let's be serious a dual-core S4 would be enough computing power for any smartphone, couple that with LTE and I for one do not care if I get the Quadcore Exynos or the S4. Sure I'd rather have the Exynos Quad and coming from an at&t SGSII I know the power of the Exynos, but I think it's time companies focus on making the phones run better with more features than just beefing up the specs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] secretasianman:
+ 1.

The phone looks fine to me. I would have stuck with an iPhone if I wanted form over function.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] karate104:
+another 1. The only reasons I'm not going to get this phone is #1, I don't have an upgrade and I can wait until S4 when that upgrade comes around, and #2, the phone is too big for me. My S2 is already pushing the size limit for me, I love the large HD screen but the fact that the whole phone is bigger than my current one means it's too big for my pocket and my personal taste. I was pretty happy with everything else they included hardware-wise, and very pleasantly surprised by all the new software features, especially because I happen to be a fan of stock TW.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tylerdurdin:
Ehhhhh..... I am the biggest Samsung fanboy ever..... This phone is pretty ugly.... The screen looks alright, the back looks more generic than the Vibrant.... Overall it's ugly compared to the OneX. Average user won't tell but the display in the OneX is nicer than the pentile crap....

Clear cut instances of a company on top has nothing to prove.... Therefore puts out whatever it wants and we accept it as the best. On the other hand a company that was once great fell real hard and now strives to redeem itself.... and did it well. Kudos to HTC.... Samsung will win next time.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] eep2378:
I have to say I'm a bit underwhelmed with the S3 as well. It looks fairly cheap and pentile display is disappointing. The main thing I hate about TW is how far it's tentacles run on each firmware. So now Samsung decides to run them even DEEPER with this phone?? Come on!! :mad:

The One X is tempting but I'm not due for an upgrade now anyway. Right now my I777 is looking pretty GOOD! :D

Edit: BTW, Mikey, nice sig! :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] s0ulja:
I see a lot of comments about it looking cheap, I mean do you guys not own a I777 Lol? Because if you do these comments don't make sense to me, the i777 is pretty much made of all plastic, and "looks cheap". Even feels cheap to some, not me, but I know the flexible back door/ battery cover was a big deal to some people. Anyways aside from that I can understand it doesn't look that appealing to some (too round & curved edges), but don't worry cause more than likely the US carriers will have a revised version just like the SII's did last year when they reached us.

---------- Post added at 08:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:48 AM ----------

Same here I came from an iPhone 4 16gb to a I777 SII, and it was a very hard decision specifically for software and design reasons too. However after using both phones I'd say I made the right choice and it was a very noticeable upgrade in terms of both software(ICS) and specs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ishmael47:
Quit complaining about the S4. The chip technology is nearly next generation, so it actually performs like a last generation quad-core (like the Exynos). Sorry to burst your bubble but this Exynos chip will not be dominating the processor scene like ours did.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] s0ulja:
I'm on the same boat got to keep my I777 for at-least another 10 months if I go the contract route, but the Nexus for 399.99 unlocked through Google is looking tempting considering I know I can get around 300-350 for my I777 on eBay in mint condition with ICS on it.

---------- Post added at 08:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:54 AM ----------

+1 Saw that day of release and was surprised how well the S4 performed in comparison to the Exynos 4 Quad... couple the S4 with LTE support and perhaps better battery life as well as a revised design for the US variants and everyone will surely be happy.

---------- Post added at 09:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:59 AM ----------

Yea I agree 4.8 does seem a bit large, I don't have clown hands so that might be hard to use one handed. I will say though imo I think HTC seems to somehow get more screen size for less real estate than samsung, my Inspire 4G had a 4.3" screen just like my I777 but it was shorter in height and fit in my pocket a little bit better.

SGS 3 is your choice
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Eckyx:
In the case of the One X, I'd honestly prefer the AT&T version to the international, the Snapdragon is a better chip than Tegra 9 times out of 10. Tegra3 is four last-gen cores put together, built on an old process. The Snapdragon with its two cores matches Tegra3's 4 cores multithreaded tasks and considerably faster in single-threaded tasks, while drawing a lot less power. Admittedly the GPU is a hair slower, but it's not going to be very noticeable, while the battery life will be. IMO the Euros got shafted here.

Between the Quad Exynos it's more of a tie, but I'm not sad to get the American version. The Exynos is built on 32nm, vs 28nm of the Snapdragon and 40nm for the Tegra, meaning the AT&T S3 will still likely have better battery life than the international, but it's not an obviously superior chip.

As for styling, I like the look of the One X and I'll need to see the S3's screen in person before I'll trust it... but I don't think I'll be buying either.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] silver91342:
Same here I'll check out both in-store when the S3 comes out, was considering the One X but looks like the bootloader might be locked for a little while. If the S3 doesn't impress me much in person I might also skip both till a new Nexus hits the pipeline, I guess Samsung has won bidding. Might just keep the S2 and buy and sell a One X if the price drops (got 2 June upgrades and 1 upgrade now).

I have to say on this one the HTC One X is looking pretty nice atm, sure the bootloader is locked, but given time there is a way around that. the S3 looks alright but compared to the HTC, IMO the HTC wins look-wise.

to be honest here I was disappointed when i heard that neither of them had the quad-core I would of liked the quad core just to say "haha my phone has 4 processing cores compared to your 1 core."

My actual upgrade is coming towards the end of the month so i might go with the HTC unless i opt to keep the S2 for a little bit longer.

for some reasons unknown to man do we really need to carry every bit of media known to human with them? Me nah not really, I use my phone to browse the web when im out, calls, text, and music and thats about it.
