[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jodroidbcn:
I have tried everything I can think of, but my phone does not last more than 13 h, even if I have a 2000mah original Samsung high-capacity battery.

My latest stats:

13 h on battery - I am at 6% charge

Voice calls: 28% - 33m

Screen: 27% - 1h20 (I keep it at the lowest possible brightness at all times)

Chrome: 13%

Cell Standby: 9%

Android OS: 8%

Phone Iddle: 5%

...

Do you see something strange?

What else can I do to diagnose the problem?

Thanks,

J

Perhaps you're battery has a factory defect?

Did your phone go to deep sleep? If no then it's possible that it's the cause of your battery to drain alot.

Hi,

I've been wondering about Android's data count.

Sometimes a single app's count is higher than the entire phone's. Actually, I've only seen this on Google Music.

Here's what I mean: (ignore the app name.. Indiana Jones = Google Music haha.. it messes up when I flash new ROM)

See? Orange graph higher than blue graph.. What does that even mean??

At the second ss you can see 278MB used by phone and 405 used by GMusic.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] finalhit:
squaretrade is around $100 with coupon...which is 1/6 of the gnote's price. typically, that ratio for me is about 1/4 the cost of the phone, so it never seemed worth it. my current phone is the evo shift, which i don't think has gorilla glass, and amazingly, doesn't even have a scratch on the screen.

apparently, i'm very careful with my device (even on the second leg of the 2 year contract when i'm less careful with it). so i'm considering whether or not insurance is a sucker's bet or a good investment on this one.

what route did you guys go with?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] donniegood:
With S. T. You can always return the unused portion of your warranty. If you buy a 2year warranty and sell the phone after a year and do not choose to include it in the sale then log on and you return the half you haven't used time wise

I bought one yesterday, but not before complaining that the iPhone 5, with the same 649.99 retail price tag, is $30 less than the "smartphone" plan. They sent me a coupon code for the difference :)

Sprint can keep their warranty for $11/mo. I'm now paying less than $5/mo with SquareTrade.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nucleotide:
With so many ROM's available, I'm curious as to which one is getting the most love.

I haven't listed all ROM's. I've gone through Development forum and the Galaxy Nexus Index and picked what I think might be the most appropriate based on replies/posts in the individual ROM's thread as well as when the ROM was last updated.

If you could also post below why you are using the ROM you voted for that would be great.

If you are using a ROM not listed in the poll, please mention it below also.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kyokeun1234:
AOKP

Not only it is super fast and smooth with Franco Kernel, but also it has tons and tons of customization in this ROM that I love. Also the look on my friends face when I show them my unicorn and swagger toggle is priceless :p

Swyped on my Galaxy Nexus running AOKP with Franco Kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Xfanatic:
I am loving AffinitySeries from Android Developer Alliance. It hasn't been updated for almost 2 months but it doesn't need one. I have been running it for a month and a half and have never had an issue. It is solid, fast and has just enough customizations. I am running it with Franco's kernel and Dustin's Cobalt theme and haven't found a combination yet that tops it.

As if having a great ROM wasn't enough, ADA is also a very pleasant and professional group. The devs are active in their threads and will answer questions promptly and without condescension.

Allons-y
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] -=Beavis=-:
Xenon HD

Give it a try it is super stable and has also a ton of customizations! Updates are on a weekly basis or faster if there is a severe bug!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kizakiyuria:
codename (android)

the best rom for me, combine with zenbook series kernel make this rom even better. codename android like combination of aokp and cynogenmod but stable and fast...:D

sorry for mt bad english :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] digovicentini:
100% codename... but PA is way to cool too...

I just keep changin between these two.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rd. Vortex:
Codename Android. So good rom that I haven't even bothered trying any others. Have used Trinity kernel with it but now testing lean.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jordanishere:
MIUI

Lots of options, but mainly because its just different. Both my gf and a close friend have the gnex so it seems like I'm surrounded by aosp devices.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nephilim:
Hands down Paranoidandroid. With every update comes brand new features, not to mention smoothness and speed improvements. After using this rom initially back on my Droid Incredible 2 I immediately rooted and flashed this on day 1 of owning my Gnex, there is no way I can go back to using anything else, this rom has more customizations and options than anything I have ever used in the 3 1/2 yrs I've been using android.

To top that off PA is typically updated once and sometimes twice in a week, besides CM10 nighties I can't think of a rom that gets that much attention and brings brand new options with every update! The fact that Maguro, Toro and Toroplus are all overseen is the other thing that makes it so amazing, most developers build roms for maguro and us over in toro and toroplus land have to wait quite awhile to get our port if it ever happens.

Bottomline, this rom is AMAZING! :D

Looks like not only me just use stock rom
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dr4stic:
EDIT: Thanks guys, I no longer have this need. Thank you :)

Folks,

I'm trying to generate a root method that doesn't trip the flash counter in the download mode. If you boot in the download mode, there's a counter for how many non-stock flashes you've done. Anyone here who has rooted has likely tripped this counter and is at least at "1" if not more.

One of the devs helping me with my work has requested a partition from a non-tripped phone, but that of course would require having root. So I've created a flashable stock samsung rom with root injected. But I need help testing it.

The counter is one of those things that could get your support request denied if you ever have to take your phone in for repair.

Mind you... if the test doesn't work, the phone will have it's counter tripped... and that's all on you. I can't be held responsible. I mean, I suppose you could hate me, but it's your own fault for helping ;)

Any takers?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
Any phone can meet this requirement by flashing the reset counter package that used to be on here... I think someone linked the package and it's in the themes area. Then the flash counter will now say 'no' but it will still say custom binary. To remove this flash back to stock and update to ics via kies. Then the flash counter will say no and binary will say Samsung official. Hope that will help.

Edit: if the reset counter is no longer there I believe it's the same as the sgs2 (I think that's where the OP pulled it from when they posted it in the themes area). Or if you want I could put the copy I have on dropbox and link it here.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] chjema:
We reposted it since the douche op went crazy.

I'm about to roor my roommatesblaze. Never been rooted.what do I need to do
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dr4stic:
ahhh, ok, lemme find a place to upload my modded root injected tarball.

Mostly, I want to make sure that, if you go into download mode, it says that the counter is at 0. If it's not at 0, then this is pointless :)

The idea is to upgrade to the latest version through kies. Either that or do a data reset/wipe and then stop the phone from booting when it goes to reboot.

Then, boot into download mode and flash my root injected tar through odin. Once that's done, when you reboot, it should be rooted. If you then go into download mode again, the counter should still be at 0.

If this is the case, then I'll ask you to get me the contents of a partition on your phone.

For now, lemme find a place to upload my tar to. It's huge.

EDIT: Wait... just saw the other stuff... lemme try doing that. If it doesn't work for me, we'll proceed :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] chjema:
Still need help? She really wants to root her phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dr4stic:
The method for resetting in the themes & apps section works fine. Use that :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] chjema:
No I meant you wanted some testing help with something, I dont care about resetting flash numbers just thought you said you need a virgin un rooted phone. If not Ill flash Tweaked on it. Just making sure because you said you wanted a untouched partition.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dr4stic:
Oh, thanks, Yeah. Was just trying to generate that partition.

I have a 600M tar file you could flash with odin and wouldn't trip the counter, but it'd take 2 hours to upload, and I'd need somewhere to upload, which is near impossible at that size.

The partition flash that's in themes & apps is for the T989, so maybe there's some bad identifying information there, who knows. While it'd be nice to have an exact version for our phone, that method is good enough for me and for the dude asking me for it :)

Thanks though!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dispozable:
You could try adrive.com it allows 2gb per file, though I'm not sure on the speed side of things. Seems they have an Android app too.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] chjema:
Lol no worries. I've sent back three phones so far with that other flash. Worked just fine :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] dr4stic:
see then, no worries... now can we let this thread die? ;)

Yup that's my dude. I actually pucked up the device after I watched his review. Gave up my s3 to my shortie lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Thank Me Later:
Would you say the Note II is a lot better than the GS3 or just a little better?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] anti-up:
I dont believe you can change the news source. But If you choose information ticker>settings, you can choose what type of news to display (i.e. entertainment, us news, sports...) HOWEVER, Does anybody know how to make theFacebook ticker work? NOTHING I do will make it work, it says no data to display, when I push the refresh button on lock screen nothing happens.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] hayabusa1300cc:
Comparison analogy, the s3 is a v10 Lamborghini, and the note 2 is a v12 Lamborghini. With jelly bean, the s3 performance is really really good, and note 2 even better. How I use the phone, I would say it's a lot better. Reasons why, bigger better screen, stylus activity, bigger better screen, bigger better screen, extra performance, better game performance, more thoughtful ui enhancements, more features and last but not least, bigger better screen.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Thank Me Later:
LOL nice!! Good to see people are liking it.

I just wished Samsung could of done the S3 Mini with the same high end specs and share some of the features as the S3/Note II. That would be the phone for anybody who wants to try Android but are skeptical or worried of the "big size" of the phones.

Good to see flossy gettin xda love..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Zaiaku:
have the exact same problem
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Lyvewire:
THIS was exactly what I needed to jump in. I was plotting on this phone for months. Just waiting and watching the reviews. This review was on point and straight to the point. I'm gonna have to refer back to both videos to learn a lot of the basic features 1st since I didnt get a chance to break it in and rooted it so fast. I stopped messing with Samsung phone years ago because I never liked the hardware and the low volume on their phones. My last 2 phones was a rooted Evo 4G, then a rooted Evo 3D but this review and the phone itself made me more open minded.

I got my Note 2 Dec. 16th. Rooted it the same day. I was on Jelly Bomb the whole time which was crazy and tried Macks Rom 2 days ago which I was digging more since it was similiar minus all the blue theming with a more customization and better email..

I returned the Note 2 yesterday (14 days) only because I paid $340 at Sprint with tax when Amazon has them for $199. Sprint ended up giving me a $75 credit this month and next but still returned anyways. Read between the lines.. After I returned it to Sprint I found out the Titanium is back ordered til Feb.and if you switch the phone to a different line before 6 months they can penalize you for $200. Not sure if this is is true but didn't want to wait til Feb.nor risk getting hit with a fee.

Ended up calling Best Buy and getting it for $250 and getting the accidental insurance for $10 which Sprint doesn't cover. I also just found out about some Buy back program and can get for $80-90 I might add to get upgrade amount back towards next phone after 2 yr contract. (Already hearing rumors about the Note 3 in 6 months). So if anyone just checked this review like I did and debating whether or not to get this. Grab this phone and hopefully all the workarounds I did will save you some trouble if your thinking of WHERE to pick yours up...

Def. best phone I've ever purchased and I believe the only way I'd move on is if the Note 3 is better or if HTC decides to pay attention and drops their big phone with better specs and not this ugly version

http://www.gottabemobile.com/2012/1...e-2-competitor-leaks-in-clearest-picture-yet/

My bad on the novel but this phone def. gives you a lot to talk about...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Thank Me Later:
My guess is that the Galaxy S IV will come out before the Note 3 would. So you could take a chance & wait on that. I'm thinking Spring release & Summer release for the U.S. but we'll just have to wait and see.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Lyvewire:
Yeah that makes sense. There's no way I'd wait that long though. This jack is the ish and I'll be good to the next one drop.. I think once you get used to having a big phones its hard to go back. Subscribed to your channel weeks ago. Learned some things watching the S3 review. keep putting it down

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kancherlapraneeth:
you can go to recovery using bootloader ( power off and press power +vol down ).. or use below command through adb ( device connected to pc ) - adb reboot recovery

Not good if you think custom recovery is just some app. You should do research and learn the importance and usage of custom reocvery.

No, the correct combo is volume down + power to get to the bootloader, then select recovery from the menu (using the volume keys to move the cursor and the power key to select).

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pandasa123:
First, before you do anything, read about what TWRP is and maybe watch some videos about the features or something so you don't come back with a formatted sdcard and no idea what to do
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
It seems that you are getting your information from the wrong source. That is the completely wrong button combo, and keep in mind that every Android device has different button combos.

On this device, its power+vol down (release power after a few seconds, but keep holding vol down until the white screen comes up) to get into bootloader. From bootloader, select recovery. There is no button combo to boot directly into recovery.

Don't follow directions for other devices.
