You can try calibrating the battery by doing the following:

Prerequisite:
Clockworkmod Recovery installed.

1) With your phone on, get your battery charged to 100%.
2) Unplug the charger and turn off your phone.
3) Plug in the charger and have it charged to 100%.
4) Boot into recovery mode -> reinstall package -> advanced -> wipe battery stats.
5) Reboot your phone and continue using.

My phone battery improved A LOT after doing this.

Charge your battery when it's about 30-50%... discharging it fully harms the Lithium-Ion battery. Discharge it fully only once every 30 charge cycles or if you don't wanna do that, you can just boot into recovery and wipe battery stats.

Nope.. you don't need Clockworkmod Recovery for that. What you need just Root and Terminal Emulator.

The steps I've taken:-
1) Using Terminal Emulator, remove the /data/system/batterystats.bin
2) Turn off the phone and charge till full (the battery symbol fully green)
3) Turn on the phone and charge till 100% full.

And yes, the result is good. I still have half of battery after 1 and 1/2 day usage include about 45 minutes Papago GPS and normal network, facebook and game.

I decide to do this when I feel after a while, my battery life become shorter. Seems like this is a known issue for Android since the above steps I get for G1 phone.

Please read the FAQ

XXX other lagfix  is running, what should I do?

Voodoo lagfix is a very clean solution but work currently only for Eclair/Android 2.1 builds. If you use it, you’ll need to uninstall your previous lagfix before installing Voodoo. Hopefully, the uninstallation procedure is explained in it’s documentation.

Hotmail account was perfect using the built in "Email" apps. Although it require syncing, it's very close to a true push email notification service like those on blackberry. Set up is a breeze and i configure mine to check for new e-mail every one hour. You can reduce to as low as 5mins interval thought but i feel that it will be wasting too much battery to keep syncing.

Got my Singtel SGS. Locked recovery mode. As usual, only ADB can get into recovery mode. Seems dangerous to flash anything until Samsung or some developers fix this issue.

I have a few quetions,
1. Can this phone read microsoft word attachments, and powerpoint attachments from emails? Also, can you edit it on your phone?

2. When you have a new comment from fb, or a new tweet, or a new IM from msn, do you have to go into the app itself to see the new notification, or will the notification automatically appear in the notification bar?

3. And lastly, can you put up a full facebook widget on the TW UI, instead of the semi facebook widget?

1) Yes, read and edit using the office suite equivalent.

2) IM notification depends on the app - trillian allows, so does ebuddy. I prefer trillian. FB or tweet - No

3) FB or twitter, samsung has a built in widget called feeds and updates, u can choose FB or tweeter or both to be included.

It's fed to you if you want it to, but it won't appear at the notification bar. It'll appear at the widget.
