It seems that every setting I switch this to, it never changes the multiplier anymore like it used to on other ROM's. Im on baked snack now, but im pretty positive that it didn't work on CM6 the other day when I was on it.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] AdamDowning:
Just installed JuiceDefender and I am now getting ALOT better battery life. I also don't think signal effects it because I am in a low signal area. One underneath on the widget is time since last unplugged, and you can see in notifications area the %'age of battery. Have been playing music, browsing internet ect, just using it moderately.

i36.tinypic.com/73ed10.png
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AdamDowning:
Best record so far before getting down to 10% battery life is 25 hrs 48 minutes.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] davanw:
Sheeeiit. I'm lucky to get a full 12 hours on a single charge. So far. Only been through three full battery cycles so far.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] pinx:
2 days without problems.

Surfing, calling, WiFi, playing games, camera.

With really heavy usage like massive calling and browsing, it's was drained in one day.

Not long ago, first day low usage (FM radio, a bit od camera usage, couple of calls), lasted three days with 20% left.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Sic_lusifer:
nahhh ... i guess u r using a Mugen Power 3200mAh extended battery

otherwise impossible ..

wat firmware, rom, lagfix , progs are u using that gets u near to the end of the second day??
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Case_:
The biggest battery killer is 3G. Turn it off when you don't need it and you'll get quite nice battery life boost even without installing annoyances like Juice Defender. With 3G, my battery lasts hardly a day of light usage. On 2G, I can get two, maybe three days of light usage. Most of the time I don't need the 3G speed anyway, 2G is fast enough for a lot of things.

You might also try deleting battery stats and/or leaving the phone to turn itself off and then letting it charge until it tells you it's fully charged (you may turn it on after you've connected it to the charger, but not before that!). That way you'll calibrate the battery meter to your battery capacity properly, so it won't lie to you.

Oh yeah, and contrary to battery theory and logic, your battery WILL improve quite a bit after a week or two. Three cycles is not enough. Just be patient, give it time.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] diehard2222:
how do you switch from 3G to 2G? noob here.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Case_:
Settings, Wireless, Mobile networks, Network mode - GSM only is 2G only. WCDMA is 3G.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] pinx:
Stock battery, G7.

You can see in my signature which ROM I am using, it's stock JG5 with no lagfix.

First couple of days since I bought it, I was very disappointed about battery life (previous HTC Touch HD lasted 2-3 days).

I came so far that I set wallpaper to black and even then it didn't last much more than one day. After some time battery life extended and it became quite better, even with Nexus live wallpaper.

3G is OFF in my case, I am mostly on WiFi when I need connection, but GPRS / EDGE are always ON.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] bilboa1:
I use 3g and battery is ok unless I play games.easily last 2 or 3 days on standby with a few short call s

1h Or 2 With games lol
[Galaxy S I9000 General] pinx:
I have quite bad 3G reception at home, living out of town.

At work it's ok, but I rarely need 3G so there's no problem.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] alovell83:
Part of this depends on how your carrier acts. If I turn off 3G it means I can't use data, I can't sync etc. Sync & applications launching and background data is a bigger battery drain...multiples higher than 3G in my guess. EDITAccording to GSM arena, my 2G/3G talk time was way off, but I think their data is old. I'll remove it for now and replace it with "Up to 750 h (2G) / Up to 576 h (3G)"...it's not sooo much the network as what is going on when you might be connected to that network.

edit 2 GSM arena seems to have the most recent info, I thought they were approximating this from their test units.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] brunes:
Just fyi for those unaware.... Bell is a 3G only network, nationwide. You can't disable 3g on Bell and still have data.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] muntos:
I'm also using Juicedeffender and my battery live improved a lot. Now I can run the phone 24-30h without charging.
[HD2 General] mr1ncred1ble:
I was getting no response from my touch screen while in calls. Only the hard keys would work. Traced the problem back to a setting in BsB Tweaks. I had to turn off the Tap Time setting. The problem went away after that. Drove me crazy for a couple hours so I thought I would share.

[HD2 General] Mastiff:
Thank you for this one! I still use the old clunker (while my son has a Samsung SIII and my daughter has the latest iCrap), and this drove me crazy after a reset, where I thought I had used the same settings as every time, but I had activated that tap time thing by accident. :)
[HD2 General] orangekid:
As some advice you may want to put [solved] or something in your title so others can see a possible solution for their similar problem :)
[HD2 General] rin67630:
THANK YOU!

That drove me creazy as well.

Eternally grateful.
[Droid Incredible General] Snickasaurus:
Things you need:

Windows computer

Android SDK (on the root of your C:\ drive)

A phone running Android (duh)

Your SDcard inseterd into the phone

USB charge/data cable that came with the phone

A few mins of your time

The purpose of this is to show you how to create a text file listing the applications in the '/system/app' directory. This is where the apk and obex(program) files are located. There are so many in there it's nice to have a list so you can pick and choose which ones you want to remove OR move to your SDcard incase you want them later.

When I downloaded the SDK from Androids site I just extracted it and renamed it sdk and placed it in the root of my C: drive. Open a CMD window or terminal and change to 'c:\sdk\tools' directory.

With the phone powered off plug it into the computer with the USB cable. Hold the POWER button + VOL DOWN while the phone turns on. Choose RECOVERY, when it appears, with the VOL DOWN key and tap POWER. Again with VOL DOWN choose 'partition menu' and press in the OPTICAL MOUSE button. Using the VOL DOWN key you want to highlight '-mount /system' and

'-mount /sdcard' using the OPTICAL MOUSE button to choose each one so they should change to '-unmount /system' and '-unmount /sdcard'.

At this point focus your attention back to the terminal or command window that should be sitting at the 'c:\sdk\tools' prompt. Type in 'adb shell' and press enter. Leave off the ' in the command. Once it connects to your phone change directory to the '/system/app' folder by typing this out...

#cd /system/app/ <hit enter>

Now type

#ls > /sdcard/applist.log

That's it! You should now have a log file on your sdcard. It's so much easier than reading the screen and making a quick decision to remove something that might be bugging you now when you MIGHT need it later. Hope this helped someone!

Once the command is finished (it only takes a second or two) unmount the SDcard and /system folder and reboot your phone.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrkmrk:
You can press menu->more->select text... it works, though it's not exactly elegant. There needs to be a more unified c/p base on this OS.

EDIT: Nevermind, had read Email as Gmail. Sorry :(.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajones7279:
Wish I could help but I can't. On another note, I love how the copy/paste is on the HTC email program now. It brings up a magnifier box and two "selectors" to show where and to you want to copy from. Think it does it in the default browser too but Xscope is my default. Would be cool if it was the Android default way.

Thanks for the ROM downloading now. Is this version of 2.2 based on the Sprint release? Sense?
[EVO 4G Android Development] KyleCole90:
Yea its the Sprint 2.2 release, so yes sense.
[EVO 4G Android Development] admorris:
What is different about this ROM vs. the 10 other 2.2 Froyo based rom's on this site? Not trying to be an a-hole, but it may make your ROM more popular to do a small write up on what sets your rom apart from the others.

Well if u read my intro it days that this is a stock looking rom with some more horses underneath the hood. I'm not saying people have to use this rom its just something I make for myself and I think other people would like it to. If u don't think my rom is good enough u have the choice to use another rom I would not be offended at all.

[Vibrant General] 98classic:
on simcard or your google account, depends where u have been creating/savimg them to
[Vibrant General] stepinmyworld:
FYI anytime you save a contact i would recommend picking Google account instead of saving to the phone or the sim card. Anytime you log in with a phone that has Google support, all of your numbers should sync with it. (if you saved them to Google) :)
[Vibrant General] digitall321:
I didn't know people still saved contacts directly on the phone anymore. Why would you want to if saving them in a google account can have such info sync'ed to any phone automatically... especially on an Android handset. Even the crappy-ass iPhone has a method of doing this.

Hi all,

I`m wondering if it's possible to show birthdays of Facebook friends in Sense Calendar. I've seen this working on Android and now i`m hoping to get this working on WM also.

No one has a clue?
[Windows Mobile] Mikenif:
I dont think the WinMo Sense supports this
[Windows Mobile] patensas:
Well i don't expect that it will be possible, just hoping someone can get it working.
[Windows Mobile] Mikenif:
I guess we'll need a Lua genius like Cookiemonster to create this. Maybe if we create a bounty/reward someone will step up to the plate
[Windows Mobile] tomcug:
I bet this requires source code of Sense, so I wouldn't expect any solution.

Check out Manila Birthday: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=605879. It looks at all your contacts with an entry for birthday and has different options for putting them on your calendar. I tried it once a few months ago but didn't use it that heavily. Looks promising though!

[Captivate General] vintagephone:
Returned my Captivate last week due to the GPS problems. Now I see it for $50 on amazon! Android Forums wrote about it, and I checked and seems to be true.

Man, am I glad I returned mine. Still hope they fix it... I'll get another. But it'll be cheap!

C
[Captivate General] lilo777:
The offer is for new service plan only. It's marketing and has nothing to do with the merits of the phone which remains one of the best on the market. GPS seems to really be the only problem which is annoying but I am not sure there is any phone out there without problems anyways.
[Captivate General] vintagephone:
Phone is great, I loved mine.... just couldn't justify a 2 year contract and $230 (Best Buy) with the flaky gps. But $50... thats a great deal. Just thought others considering returning their Captivates because of the GPS should be aware of this. It might be a factor. (Yes that's new contract only pricing.)

I purchased my Captivate on 7/26 at at&t for $199.99, I am still eligible for return at only $35 restocking fee.

What can I do to cash in on these reduced deals? Anyone have any suggestions?

If I return the phone do I still have an upgrade again?
[Captivate General] Ph8:
Just a heads up if you use the code 25rafpcver1 youll get $25 off 89.99 price, brings the price of the Captivate to $64.99 shipped. This code is good until 8/14. BTW this phone is ONLY good if you are either upgrading or getting new service, it does not qualify if you are getting the phone only.
[Captivate General] sschrupp:
Thanks for the heads up on the Amazon price. I bought mine from Amazon for $89.99 just 6 days before they dropped it to $49.99. Hopefully they'll refund me the $40 difference. If not I won't be too upset I suppose. This is a great phone for the $90 I got it for!
[Captivate General] Jack45:
If you return your Captivate solely because of GPS issues - that's nuts. If you want a GPS product, get a TomTom. Besides, there's an excellent chance that this will be dealt with in an update. Samsung's got too much to lose to ignore this issue (as silly as I think it is).
[Captivate General] dewt:
I'm sure it will definitely be fixed soon. Running the I9000 rom on my phone now and the GPS locks in about 15 seconds.
[Captivate General] krazyphire:
First of all I got mine for free on the first day it came out from walmart lol, but I just wanted to let anyone with GPS issues know that the i9000s JM5 ROM upgrade has fixed my GPS from no-lock to a 10-20s lock with no blue circle (even inside the house). So if you head over to the captivate dev section I would highly suggest giving it a try!

yeah believe me I was in the same boat as you one too many times in the past ;)......Now whenever I do shooping online I do a simple google search for coupons\codes just to see if there are any out there.

Well, I returned mine because it bricked itself, but the GPS issue was bad enough that I wanted to return it anyways. I like the idea of a convergence device that does it all. My Nokia 6650 fold from 2008 does GPS very well.

Plus, we did a few 911 test calls (legally) and they don't get the GPS information through the 911 system from the Captivate. Worked fine with the Nokia.

I miss the Captivate, hopefully they'll fix the GPS soon so I can rebuy. Even the $150 in store at walmart seems a good deal.

Thanks! Just used it to get my new Captivate.
[Captivate General] saint168:
Just a reminder, if you upgrade your phone through one of the online store, you may lose the $30 unlimited data and switch to the limited data plan automatically. If you are still on an OLD voice plan, you will lose that too since you must select one of the currently available voice plan.

That's the reason I ended up getting my phone from AT&T. AT&T also gave me $50 off so the different was not that big.
[Captivate General] Ph8:
Saint Walmart/letstalk allow you to keep your current unlimited data plan. There is a selection that says.keep my current unlimited data plan. As far as plans go you are only able to get what they offer. They are.missing some of the current voice plans, so its always best to check before you buy. Most of it has.to do with the agreements they sign with the different carriers. They are able to offer the phones at lower prices because they get a part of your monthly payment for the 1st 6 months or so.

I had a couple of Nexus...and they are everything they say, that we all know they are

Sure some say hummingbirds are better, 4" is more, but you always have Froyo and you will always have the newer updates

I ask this cause of the probs I am experiencing with the Vibrant in another thread.

Black screens, comes back on, sits still, Launcher locked, then it does the vibrate thing in your hand ten times....Occasionally I have to restart

Is there a cause to this?

Should I do a factory Reset?

Could this be caused by using the Green Taskiller? should I use another? None?

Bottom line: if this is normal with everyone, would I regret going back to the Nexus One . I would have to pay more now from an online store AND I am leary about support
