[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] MR.change:
it can't happen ,I'd say you either have a faulty battery\charger or there is someting wrong with the phone itself

the note charges while in use and connected to a charger.

yes you can ,uninstall the violating apps ,learn to use better battery status ,you'll find that there is an app or two responsible for the wake locks ,thus preventing the phone from entering deep sleep.

or simply install every app and game that seems suspisious or poorly made ,and just keep the essential ones.

as for rooting ,it couldn't be simpler if done carefully and to the letter :

1.flash back to GB using PC ODIN

2.root it

3.backup your EFS folder (important , very important) search for it on the forums.

4. install custom ROMs (stay away from unsafe kernels please ,read the sticky thread about ICS kernels)

3. enjoy

use this guide

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1329360

yes there is an easy way to root while on stock ICS as per to this guide ,but I prefer you stay away from official ICS for the sole reason that it's dangerous.

remeber the key is to read and read and read ,in a month you could become a pro

on the other hand if you go the lazy way ,you could just end up with a bricked phone

also once you root ,your warranty is void ,though if you're careful you can return it to stock condition and they won't tell the difference

be careful
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] IndDoc:
That's just wrong. CM9 battery drain with screen on is far, far worse than Stock ROM.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] MR.change:
no my friend ,I'm afraid you're wrong ,with the 4\6 nightly my phone was running with low usage for 48+ hrs .

the battery life is phenomenal for me .
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jbeef86:
@Brad387

I have had mine for about 2 weeks. When I turned it on and did the initial setup it had a new software update which was ICS. Since then I have been having issues with deep sleep as well. I turned stuff on and off and it has been totally random what was preventing it from going to deep sleep.

I have done this trick that has been on this forum.

Put you phone to airplane mode.

Power it off completely

Remove battery for 20 seconds or more

put battery back in and power this thing back on

then turn off airplane mode.

This seems to have helped me get into deep sleep. BUT there have been instances of rogue crap going on. Like I was using Google maps with GPS on. When I got home and was done with my traffic mapping I turned off the GPS switch and turned off my phone. I checked an hour later and the battery had died 10% since I got home which was more than when I was driving. I checked Better Battery Stats and it showed that GPS was running that whole time. So I turned on GPS again in the toggle waited a couple seconds then turned it off again and bang it went into deep sleep. It sucks that I have to check crap on it all the time and have become a bit paranoid because the GPS glitch had my phone running pretty hot. Since then everything has been running well and deep sleeping.

There are other things I did do too and the below stuff is up to you if you wish to proceed. I rooted my phone which was very easy...at least for me. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20963730&postcount=3 this is what I used with no problem.

From there you can freeze a bunch of stuff you may not use like Social Hub, Accuweather etc etc.You will need Titanium for that though and root access.

I logged out of Latitude too which was on by default for some reason.

If I remember anything else I did I will hit you back here.

Bottom line was finally yesterday I was able to get thru the entire day without needing to plug in so there is light at the end of the tunnel...I hope.

Not sure if this has been mentioned but CPU Spy lets you see if you are getting into deep sleep mode and how much time you are in it along with the other CPU mhz that its running.

Hopefully this can help out a bit because I have been in the same boat and it has been driving me mad. Sorry for all the random thoughts too...I just typed them as I remembered things.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
My phone does not seem to enter Deep Sleep, but runs constantly at 200 MHz instead. At present, after turning on the built-in power saving mode (not noticing any performance differs so can't even tell what it does), running Juice Defender Ultimate on aggressive and screen filter I burn around 2% per hour if I just leave my phone locked. Is that healthy?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] foxmeister:
Actually, there is something you can do about that!

Both Vodafone and Three can supply you with a Femtocell which can greatly improved your signal at home, and uses your home broadband as backhaul.

I know, because I have them! ;)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] peseta:
Battery life of my Note was horrible after upgrade to ICS, and actually already quite bad the last month on GB2.3.6 (all unrooted).

It could get quite warm and often when opening my case the screen was already on.

So I did wipe my phone, reinstalled all apps and battery life has improved immensely.

I see several warnings here about chance to brick your phone when wiping on stock ROM, but not solving the battery drain is of course no option and we don't have a guarantee from Samsung for nothing...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] :
Well, thanks for offering that advice but how expensive are these things? Also, I'm the only person on 3 in my house so kind of a waste really...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jbeef86:
your phone should not be running at 200MHz when you hit the sleep/power button. So if its in your pocket and the screen is off then 200MHz is not healthy. Something is running in the background. Have you tried the airplane mode battery trick yet? What I did when that was happening to me was...turn on the airplane mode, power off the phone, pull out batt for 20 secs, put batt in and power on phone, turn off airplane mode, then go to CPU Stats and clear it, then put phone back to sleep and let it sit for a half hour or less if you cant handle that wait like I couldnt. Go back to CPU Stats and and click refresh and see if it helped and if your phone went into deep sleep.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] foxmeister:
If you are getting a bad signal at home, Three will lend you a home signal. So it's essentially free.

What would you buy? HD Widgets or Beautiful Widgets?

HD Widgets got an update today and are on sale now. Not sure if it is a good deal.

Maybe somebody tried both?

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BrandT90:
I have both. I only use HD Widgets because it's very polished. Beautiful Widgets allows you to install different themes for the widgets, which is awesome, but when I used it the selection was unappealing to me. I'm sure there are more themes now, though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
Never used HD Widgets, but Beautiful Widgets has a loooot of themes.

Here's my home screen widget just for reference. I'm using the full screen widget for the Galaxy Note (5x5).

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Big Cam:
I've had beautiful Widgets since my Droid 1, 2 years ago.

I like it, and for $3 I really got my use out of it. After getting my nexus though, the screen is so brilliant, I kind of don't want to take up half that space with a clock widget. I think I might just finally be done with clock apps, I do remember trying HD widgets way back in the day and deciding on Beautiful Widgets.

I guess for me, I say BW only because I know what I'm getting, and the themes are great. It's really easy to get away from the default HTC look.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slayr76:
I also have both but the new HD Widgets beta version the weather does not work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Chrono_Tata:
For my Nexus I'm using BW since it has a lot of customisation options (although I really hate how the location name disappears under the weather icon for places with long names). I have HDW as well which I use on my Transformer Prime since BW has awful scalability for large screens. I very much prefer the widget layout of HDW but I can't find a theme on it that I really like over BW.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] n7of9:
i too have both...BW for phone, HDW for tablet

i hadn't had HDW on my phone in ages and installed the latest 'update'...it was crashing ALL day, even without an active widget i was getting a "hd widgets has crashed" popup, but worse than that for me, the widget was only displaying in farenheit even though i'd selected celsius, which makes it totally useless gibberish

i won't be updating to the new version on my tablet
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PoorCollegeGuy:
I have also bought both of them. Beautiful Widgets feels like it works better for a phone interface because the 4x2 Clock/Weather widget looks like it fits better on the screen and is highly themeable (for us who flash new themes and ROMs frequently).

I use HD Widgets for my tablet as the giant clock/weather widgets fit the screen much better than Beautiful Widgets does and the transparency and light theming works on my tablet as i don't flash with it nearly as much.

Just my thoughts :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] billykxda:
As with some posters above, I am a long-time BW owner, going back to the early days of the OG Droild. I loved it back then. Now, the look of those big clocks with overly-dramatic weather icons looks so 2009 to me. :)

After getting the GNex, I just couldn't devote so much homescreen space and I didn't want something that looked so "tired" to me, so I bought Make Your Clock Widget Pro. I designed a minimalistic "clock" widget and it's been in service on my GNex for months now. For me, it's perfect, and it's unique - just what I want, how I want it - nothing else.

Consider escaping the BW/HD Widgets look, and just go make your own.

Here’s a screenshot…
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bat0nas:
Thanks!!!

Make your clock is totally great!

I installed a free version and one widget even works. And this is ok for me.

Not sure if weather works. But I will check that later. Clock was a priority.

I do a lot of spreadsheet editing on my Sony Tablet S and without getting into a discussion about what is the best spreadsheet app, I have found that data entry is a lot easier on my wife's Transformer because of the built in track pad.

i want to translate mising thing in cynomobile rewo a in setings to my language [polish] i need step by step instruction

i was trying but after translation and replacing whit orginal setings apk and reeboot setings gone .

i need list tools and step by step procedure
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] meccaandroid:
use apk tool

search for apk tool and a tutorial to use it.

when you now how to basically use it,

install systemui.apk with this string

apktool if systemui.apk

(the same as framework)

then unpack the settings.apk (apktool d settings.apk etc etc...)

then you can translate the settings.apk in this way:

Change into the /res folder

Check to see if a values-xx folder exists, where xx is the two letter code of the target language to be translated into.
For example, if you are aiming to translate into German, check for a values-de folder. If it does not exist
(and chances are that if you are translating into a new language, that it will not exist), you need to create it.
Then, copy the arrays.xml and strings.xml files from the /values folder into the folder you just created.
Open these two files (in Notepad ++) and alter the strings (the text in BLACK ONLY).
Look out for things that look like %d and %s /’ - Don’t edit these, as they are variables. Also, if you see &, it represents the ‘&’ sign, so feel free to change it.
Finally, you MUST be sure to place a backslash ‘\’ before an apostrophe, for example Proxy\’s would be the equivalent of Proxy’s.
Once you have translated and edited your arrays.xml and strings.xml files, save them, and return to the root directory of APKTool

then repack the apk as you have learn from using apktool (search for tutorials) and the the work is done!

(press thanks if this post was useful!)

Go to Recovery.

Perform a nandroid backup of your current ROM.

Wipe All partitions - system, boot, data ,cache, dalvik cache {except your SD card}.

Install Zip from SD card & navigate to your ROM from your SD card.

Flash G Apps attached in the OP of the ROM.

Reboot

Can volume keys wake the phone?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] LukeHandle:
I can provide you with one.

Me too! Very useful when out at concerts etc. I found that the constant movement would cause the power button to be hit, then screen would stay on for a minute with contact through thin trousers/shorts.

Eventually I found phone was quite warm and battery was slightly reduced.

And I have no idea what the volume wake does, but I have left it enabled.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] baste07:
How about wake up with volume keys
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] LukeHandle:
Basically, the file gpio-keys.kl contains four lines corresponding to both volume keys, power button and the home button.

The zip I posted removes the WAKE from just the power button. So the volume keys behave in the same way they would without the modification.

The zip the op posted removes the WAKE from the volume keys and the home button, but not the power button. (so the volume keys will no longer wake the device).

I don't know what this difference means, I assume it may have something to do with volume changing when listening to music? But I have no idea.

Does this clear it up?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] baste07:
But the volume keys dont wake up the phone by default right?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] LukeHandle:
Nope, not as far as I have ever seen.

But they were set to WAKE, so I left them that way.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] baste07:
Is there a flashable file that can enable that?

Thanks1
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] dilse:
the button doesn't, but the screen coming on does. Disabling the button is handy, when phones in pocket, and button keeps pressing.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] LukeHandle:
Enable wake on volume key press? I honestly don't know how, according to the file that I modified they already do - but we know that they don't actually visibly affect the device.

I think acccidently pressing the power button is much easier than accidently pressing the home button, so arguably, you would save more power disabling the power button, and not the home button?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] strix75:
Thank´s for this, love it.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] Eric Eakin:
i have a case on my s3 so pressing the power button is eliminated accidentally, however the home button i seem to press accidentally every time i pull it out of my pocket or even just shuffling it around.

[HTC One X] Meltus:
PowerAMP and Winamp both have their own built-in EQ controls which will be overriding the Beats EQ. Beats is pretty terrible anyway, so you may just want to use the built-in player one. You can disable direct-control in the PowerAMP settings which can allow other applications to work alongside it, this may get Beats working too:

Open up PowerAmp

Press 'Menu' button

Select 'More'

Select 'Settings'

Select 'AudioEngine'

Select 'Advanced Tweaks'

Disable Direct Volume Control

It's because you're not using a stock recovery. Go into your /cache folder, pull the file out of there and put it on your internal storage somewhere, then go into whatever recovery you use and flash the zip file.

You can only do the auto OTA installs if you're using stock recovery. Otherwise, you have to flash manually. Just the way it is.
