[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Felnarion:
I think maybe you're being a bit too anal. 40 minutes + a call and some screen on time...Seems reasonable from 100%. Keep in mind 100% means "Can't be charged more" so once you pull it off the charger, the instant it hits the battery, it's 99.9. So you shouldn't expect to stay at 100 for long. Also, you say memory clear, no apps running...This is unlikely unless you killed them, in which case, you're probably ****ing with the battery life by killing apps, it's pretty commonly accepted that background apps should by and large be left alone with a few exceptions (Skype and such eat battery while waiting for messages).

I notice you've compared your SGS3 in every way to your roomates, except where it matters, which is signal. Yeah, he's a roommate, but that doesn't mean your phone is getting the same level of signal as his. If it's low, battery life will certainly be affected.

Either way, you need to test it out through the day. Is it reasonable battery life at the end of the day? If so, does it really matter how quickly it gets to 93%? Is it a big deal if you lose 10% quickly and then the rest lasts a full day?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] lessthanzach:
I'm digging the battery so far. Never got this much screen time with the one x. I'd be lucky to get 4 hrs.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] gtuansdiamm:
I just realised from reading this thread I have no need for a new phone

I'm not much of a cell gamer

I do play but only ocassionaly

I do use it a lot but my s2 still works great

I have great wimax coverage so having an lte phone at this time is a minus

Damn what's wrong with me

I might just be hooked to phones

After I get the s4 I'm not gonna get another phone till the s6 unless the s5 is revolutional

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Lieu10ant:
wow when i first got the phone, having 2 hours of screen on time was all i could get from the phone... look at this beast now!! 6+ hours of screen on time and all of that time was used up by me streaming Heroes on netflix on my phone. INSANE battery!!
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] nabbed:
You predict shortage because your excessive use makes the battery last shorter?

This phone has one of the best batteries for real world usage.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Narcistic:
Well yes and no to that.. I'm using this hell of a lot more than. My iPhone so battery isn't lasting as long as it will normally.. I used my iPhone for Web browsing the other day and a few other things and it drained about the same for the amount I was doing as this does so I think it's just more noticeable due to being new gadget.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] wolfc70:
Battery life so far has been just fine. Coming from an iPhone 4, that was 2.5 years old, the sgs3 is about the same as the 4 when it was new. Overall, I'm very impressed with this phone. As someone who is fairly new to Android, I'm blown away by how smooth and fast this phone is.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] eshiku:
the battery life for me has been ok not as good as the iphone 4 that i had but it's very good compared to my friend's SG2

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Randomacts:
I think I'll be ok.

*Note* This is with Juice Defender Ultimate in a wifi area 24/7 so data was cell data was never turned on. I ended up turning off Juice Defender and will just save it for when I am out and about, it really saved me a lot of battery but for home use I don't need it.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Beakerzor:
I lasted all day yesterday

got over 16 hours, used my phone at lunch for navigation, but not much otherwise
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] goblue30093:
My battery life is incredible. I can't complain one bit. I can make an entire day without a charge without question. Even better when I'm not at work (our building gets no signal so it drains). I had a Galaxy S and then an S2. Each one has gotten better and this one is by far the best. I'm very happy with the battery life.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Beakerzor:
I used my phone a lot yesterday, and still got 10 hours, but was glad I had a spare battery, for instant 100% renewal
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] droidstyle:
If you wear this battery out in less than a day you need to get a real job lol. I avg. 24+hrs with 2hrs talk,4 hrs screen on, wifi, data and gps all on. Bottom line is i dont have enough free time in the day to use this device anymore. So for tha average user the battery should last easily one full day!
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] chisledice:
I use my phone non stop all day using Talk, texting, sms, mms, phone calls, bluetooth either jamming tunes on sd or streaming pandora and I will still be sitting around 70%-50% by the time I get home. My car ride is 45 mins each way. So music and BT the whole time. Also, I leave my screen maxed out because I cannot get enough of the screen! My Razr's screen was decent, but this is money. Can't get enough of it!

Needless to say... I still have enough battery that I don't have to put mine on the charger until midnight or so and that is still with random calls, text, and pandora. I'm very happy with the battery life. I did just put a mod on that turns off one core when the phone is in standby and I have noticed an even better life on the battery.

My only complaint on the battery is that it takes forever to charge, but I guess that is what you get with a bigger battery. My wife's Maxx is the same way.

Hello, Im confused in selecting betwen two great roms. Newest wanamlite and neat lite roms.

Guys, What do you think which is more battery friendly and more smoother and faster?

Till now, I discovered that Wannamlite is more smoother but neat lite rom give more battery life. But that is just me.

I need you opinions and experiance.. what kernel combination is best.. because it is time to finally settle down and stop flashing roms every week :D

Thanks

:laugh: :D :crying: :highfive: :victory:

White kind of spray paint was used is what I'd like to know. If only covers were sold in white because knowing me i will attempt and FAIL horribly doing myself.

It doesn't look like your typical White Spray Paint bottle was used...Several coats? Regular Spray Paint peels
[HTC Titan] IronMan1289:
Tachi everything you say is so true!

I've painted a lot over the years and although the type of paint is important, I find that the quality of the finish and how long it'll hold up to daily handling greatly depends on the type of "clear-coating."
[HTC Titan] PayAndDie:
Always looking for this!

That looks awesome! Please share a how-to!!!
[HTC Titan] iamwin:
on my experience, painting metal surfaces such as titan's aluminum brushed finish back casing is quite pain in the a** when you use spray paints in can. since the spray diameter is still big, the paint easily chips off or peels through short time.

I recommend painting metallic surfaces with the ones used in repainting cars, compressor powered air spray. The pressure is a lot higher with that thus the spray droplet diameter would be a lot smaller too. with that, the gaps between spray droplets become smaller, making it tighter.

I did that on my HTC voyager, where the front part of the case has metal coating. The paint lasted as expected. Clear coating is also smoother compared to that of spray in cans. The only downside is it costs higher too especially if you do not have the materials ready.
[HTC Titan] noelito:
my titan is being spray painted white at this very minute

I have a friend who does model cars planes for hobby and graphic design for work, he is currently painting my cover white but we went to lowes and did buy spray paint in a can, if this paint job does not last like was previously stated, i'll buy the more expensive paint and go that other route for longer lasting finish.

here is a pic of my titan halfway through the process! the phone itself is actually back with HTC to get the gps checked out, turn by turn navigation has not been working properly for months
[HTC Titan] zup2sky:
What is that white LED next to at&t logo?
[HTC Titan] IronMan1289:

Seems much better for me on my One X. The previous version was horrible, I like this one but its faaaar from stable compare to others on the market. They should of have 2 versions though, one optimized for GB and one for ICS, because the lag I feel and slow down might be because its optimized for both, I rather have a version optimize for ICS.

Nope, in this launcher, it only change the icon theme but not the selection color and page indicator for example. If you use Miui GB then you know. :)

yeah I know what your saying like in the ICS version from what I've seen the only way to change the page indicators from the normal square is 2 actually edit the apk -resign it etc. etc.

with GB I think they actually have the feature where you can just change that within the app.
[Android Apps and Games] CaptainKn0tz:
Now I get what ur saying

They actually didn't remove that stuff from ICS MIUI it's just that a lot if the themes haven't been updated to be compatible with MIUI4

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ranho acido:
I'm sorry to ask this but actually it's hard for me to see what I'm gonna gain by installing a custom ROM.

I'm saying this, being the owner of two android mobiles, fully rooted and with different ROM's in it.

I'm also one of the unfortunately who bought the 8gb version, which is harder and have few options for a non-stock ROM. I'm rooted, but seeing how faulty some ROM's look to me, I'm still worried that moving to a custom ROM will only give me problems instead of resolving stuff I don't like in the stock. But then, I look at the 16gb version and there isn't more abundance in options, maybe some things are just easier.

So please, tell me that I'm wrong, that going for CM9 is no worst that staying with the stock and so on that I'll find the light.

Cheers
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Solar.Plexus:
Well I'd have to say I am enjoying CM9 much more than the stock ROM. If you still aren't sure, I would just make a bootable SD card with CM7 or CM9 and try that out for a while. That way you still have your stock ROM untouched internally.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] miniblue:
I second the SD cm7 option. I did that for a while. Soon discovered I wasn't using the stock so I experimented with all the ROMs available. I liked the cm9 that crashed as it had the location by wifi working. Cm7 SD does as well. Since a couple of weeks I am running the April 24 build got cm7 internal. When cm9 is stable I will switch.

Bill
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] easye55:
Definitely a good idea using the SD card idea to check it out. That's what i ended up doing and now I'm running CM9 internal (the most recent 2.x. kernel one). It's marked as an alpha but it's still really good. From what i've seen on the forum, they are still working on some major fixes on the 3.x kernel.

I am similar in that i have the DroidX and have tried out most of the major custom roms over the last 2 years.

I ended up trying out CM7 on an SD for about 2 days. Then loaded up CM9 internally and haven't used stock or cm7 since. I find ICS to be a much nicer tablet OS.

But my use of the Nook may be diff than yours. So check out the SD versions and decide if u can live with the issues each may have.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] ranho acido:
I tried for a while the CM7 on SD. Maybe it was the SD, but the experience was very laggy, not smoth at all...

Since I'm with the 8GB version I can only install the CM9 internally, but I'm not sure after reading the thread if by doing it in the 8GB I can revert back to stock easily. And this is my main fear, that I'm jumping into an unstable thing and then I can't go back. So if there is some stupidity in this remark please let me know.

On another point I see people eagerly to move to the new google tablet and this is sad, because only with a lot of people we can get ROM's and developers. If that would happen and if we could install a custom and stable CM rom this whole idea of mass migration from one tablet to the other would be halted.

A small question: video playback in the CM9? Is it any good? I do travel a lot and use the tablet to check some movies.

If we can revert to stock after installing the CM9 on the 8GB I'll definitely try this weekend.

Cheers
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] purduegurl18:
I'm in the same boat. I rooted my SGS2, but I haven't seen any real big reason root my NT. I got it just before Christmas and have been fairly happy with they way it runs stock.

Something that runs a better browser would be my biggest issue at this point in time, but other than that...

I suppose it just depends on how you use it.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] easye55:
I have the 16gb version, but I had to install it internally also. Here's what i did: got root on stock, did a nandroid backup to my SD card, then installed cmw9 internally. I figured since I have the back up I would be able to restore back to my rooted stock.

But, like you say, it may be diff for the 8gb model.

As far as video is concerned, yes cm9 may be an issue for you. Video acceleration is a problem. In YouTube, you need to turn off HQ to be able to watch the videos. I don't watch any movies on it, but i would think it would be an issue. I'm pretty sure this is something they are working on for the next version. But cm7 plays videos fine, i believe.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] lfeuln:
The SD CM7 plays HD YouTube flawlessly. But you don't have equivalent quality for Netflix or Hulu Plus (which requires a sideloaded apk) compared to stock.

Since getting a Galaxy Nexus I've actually had less need for CM7 myself, particularly since some key apps like Dolphin, Twitter and Flipboard are on the Nook App Market. But it depends on your own usage.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rajsris:
I have a 16gb NT,

Can someone point me to a way to make a cm9 sdcard? Im running cm7 sdcard and really want to try cm9 without fully rooting the stock os..

Thanks for your help!
