I tried a last resort solution and it seems to be working (not too stable but better than before) I completely discharged the phone, recharged it fully while shut down and battery consumption seems to have improved. I lost 6% right away when unplugged it from charger within 30minutes, but now i have 12.30h running on battery and it's down to 84%, so aside form the 6% that drained immediately from 100 to 94 the rest seems to be keeping up pretty well. I'll keep an eye on it though as it seems to vary from time to time...In two days new pa and new fxp should be out, I'll see if that makes anything better...

Thanks for reading and for the replies so far
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Rudjgaard:
I think i found out what is causing the high battery drainage, it's the mobile data connection. For some reason JD (or the system) can't shut it down when phone is at sleep. Last night i switched mobile data off and in the morning i had almost less than 0.5% drainage, as soon as i turned it back on battery percentage started dropping at sight...

Battery Calibration

Download BatteryCallibration app from the market and follow the steps given there..

Helps me everytime i have a battery issue...

HIT THANKS IF THIS HELPED :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Rudjgaard:
Thanks for suggestion but that doesn't help, i used zepps die hard calibrator before, but it's not a battery problem. Random processes at random times will keep the cpu running when it's supposed to sleep, that's what's draining the battery..

Perhaps an app is polling the net too often, facebook anyone?

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Rudjgaard:
No i have app control which prevents any unwanted things to start-up automatically (and fb is on the no-fly list ;) )

I think i kinda sorted it out, what causes the problem is thethering. When i disconnect tethering according to phone wifi and data are off, but in truth they keep staying on. I shut tether off and can still see my hotspot from pc even if wifi is completely off on the phone! So it's wifi and data which keep staying awake (even with screen of for long periods of time) and slowly drains the juices.

I have a very stupid question.

I am on ICS and want to upgrade to Jelly Bean. What is the very first step I need to do? Do I only need to flash JB ROM available or do I need to do anything before flashing JB ROM?

Thanks.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mke1973:
I need to upgrade both my old Android tablet and phone and am seriously considering getting the note 2 rather than 2 separate devices. I'm wondering if anyone who has the Note 2 finds they're using it exclusively rather than in conjunction with a tablet. I was an early Android tablet adopter, getting my tablet before buying an Android smartphone. At first, I'd take my tablet with me and use it at WIFI hotspots. I now find that I just use my tablet at home. The idea of a phablet is intriguing, but I wonder if any of you with a Note 2 find that you still need your tablets. TIA.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] P1 Wookie:
I probably would, but I do still use my Nexus 7, and use my phone as a hot spot.

Don't get me wrong. . Although not a tablet my laptop. ..But so many times my laptop is beside me and I still use my phone. I loved my note but the note 2 is on a league of its own atm. My 2 cents

I love this phablet and very happy with it.

Hope that answers your questions.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Betterjake:
One device, can't go wrong.

When Samsung says it's the best of both worlds they weren't lying. I can't wait to get mine for Christmas. I had to be pulled out of the AT&T store because I wanted to play with the phone all day. Definitely can be used as a tablet replacement, but only if you already have a computer.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] skochw:
I've pretty much stopped using my iPad 3 completely since getting the Note 2. Really is the best of both worlds. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Xelstyle:
Obviously the Note 2 wouldn't be able to completely push away my Transformer Prime with it's keyboard, ports and additional screen size, but any thoughts of wanting a Nexus 7 disappeared once I had the Note 2 in my hands.

Original iPad only gets used by my wife and kids now, I almost never use it, honestly could live without it now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] RojasTKD:
The Note II is an AWESOME device and in many ways is faster and smoother than my Asus TF300 (w/ dock). Even so I still prefer to do certain things on my Tablet with it larger screen.

Now if I didn't have a tablet I could get by with my Note II (though I'm looking forward to seeing what the Next Note 10.1 has to offer). :D

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Akquad12:
Have a ipad1 and ipad3 and a iphone 4s. Dont really touch them at all anymore. I got the note2 because my ipad one is pretty much obsolete and I travel 2 weeks a month for work so its a perfect fit for me.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] inningsdefeat500:
I got a Galaxy SIII as part of my upgrade via Carrier ( Rogers ), sold my Captivate so that money was handy for the difference. I was mesmerized by the screen size but I was looking for something bigger to watch vids, read news, flip board etc so I bought the nexus 7. I was tethering it from S3 for good speed and the S3 was just lying around

I was like, why do I have 2 devices and eventually sold my S3, paid $200 on top and got me a Note 2 ( I actually wish this was even bigger ), I use BT for calls, work from home and this thing is with me 24/7

Music, phone, pdf magazines, movie etc perfect device
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] vizographic:
Yes. I found with the original note that for general tasks like web browsing etc that I was no longer using my tablet. I bought the N2 with this in mind. The stellar battery life, processing power, display size of this device has made me very happy with this upgrade. I don't think of it as a phone. It is an extremely portable tablet that is telecom capable. The best part is that I always have it at hand when needed.

I started my android adventure with a N7... used it for business billing on a cloud website database. Liked customizing of android so I sold my iphone and then got the S3... used N7 tethered from S3 and was decent.... didnt like having to devices and the hassle of connecting.. saw note 2 and figured its a perfect in between device... S3 up for sale.. N7 is now an ereader for wife. Love the ability to pull s pen jot note and put back in and have everything in one place. Funny thing is when I got S3 the screen seemed huge compared to 4S and now looking at it after only 2 days with N2 it looks like a tiny iphone

Definitely in the same boat as you guys. S3 is heading over to a family member. I'm a current Touchpad user and an looking forward to seeing if that stays as my go-to device for media. S3 screen was great, but still not quite as large as I was hoping for. With any luck, my Note 2 will ship tomorrow :fingers-crossed:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] neubauej:
For me the Note2 is just a big phone. Very useful and powerful, but surely not a replacement for a tablet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] T.J. Bender:
Office Suite Pro. I got it when it was $0.25. I believe it's $14.95 usually and, as good as it is, there are better out there at a lower price to hold you over until OSP goes on sale again.

I don't use a mouse at all, just the S Pen. I'm a big fan of the Zagg Keys Flex BT keyboard, though. It's small and lightweight, but the buttons are still big enough to be comfortable. Added bonus is that the keyboard's case folds out to become a kickstand for your phone.

I have ipad but use the note for RDP to my servers when not at work or home. Works great. Just not as good as 10 inch tablet
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] MarcianoS:
So I finally found an app that kills the Note II's battery :)

Yesterday the Play Store notified me of an update to the AT&T Locker app (their version of dropbox and the like). I had never used the app, but updated it nonetheless to avoid seeing the notification in the Play Store. Big mistake! Battery usage went way up, and indeed it was the #2 item in the Battery page, right after the Screen itself. Again, I had not even set up an account with AT&T locker...

Anyway, I rolled back the update (by "uninstalling" in the Play store; because it's a system app, you can't really remove it) and am now recharging. Hopefully this will at least solve the batteyr issue, though I will still get the notification to update.

I know that I can remove that app (or freeze it) if I root, but I'm still within my return period and trying to make up my mind, so I'd rather not root yet. Are there any alternatives that do not involve root? Or, at least, ways to ensure that the Locker app does not suck up so much power?

Thanks!

It depends on your area. If att has better coverage, they will be the default. If t mobile does, they will. You can also choose. If you live in an area where they both have good coverage, t mobile is better as far as speed. If you travel though, you may want to go att because t mobiles coverage is spotty especially in smaller cities or rural areas.
