I only reboot once a day (auto reboot after scheduled titanium backup), so this is not even a minor concern for me..

Just to clarify, me no sifu ha ha.. Also, I am using momax.net 2700mAh battery with custom back cover. So far so good, nothing burned except my wallet

Not sure how good them 3500mAh batteries are.

I posted some pics before, in our 14th or 15th thread..

Anyway, lots more photos here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread...=944438&page=15 - that's a whole discussion thread on xda-dev forum.

I only notice 2 issues with JVB (can't remember whether JVK had same issues or not):

1. 2 second delay when answering calls (can't hear other party and vice versa for first 2 secs)
2. Intermittent error during 720p video recording - 'unsupported resolution' or something similar, forcing me to end the recording session

Maybe your phone needs to be hard/factory reset?

Titanium Backup has a Market Doctor component that supposedly helps fix market issues for restored apps (MORE / MARKET DOCTOR).

Same here, not sure kernel or game issue..

Non-original back cover will do ah?

3G data connection always on? Auto-sync and background sync enabled?

Very happy with stock GB (JVB) + cfroot kernel (3.1) + ext4 lagfix and tweaks. Got sick of worrying about battery consumption so now with a 2700mAh battery, my battery woes are over. Will wait for a Galaxy S3/4 with quad core cpu before I retire my SGS, I think.

GPS is better on JVB, locks fast but still not as accurate as I need it to be. Good thing I am not using my SGS for navigation, only foursquare check-ins..

On the other hand, I am sick of my iPad. Looking out for a more powerful and usable tablet with no locked-in content control ala iTunes (crappiest piece of software on the planet bar none).

iPad already launched for some months ma, so I got one to evaluate if iOS suits my needs. Regretfully, it does not. Not really excited about the coming Honeycomb tablets, the OS seems not ready for prime time yet based on what I've read and seen so maybe I'll just sell off the iPad and get a simple Galaxy Tab (1) instead to satisfy my web browsing and media playback needs. Gaming is not my cup of tea, no time for it currently.

Nope, files don't change back to APK upon reboot, as far as I can see. I used Root Explorer to rename the 3 files to xxx.BAK extension.

Maybe you're not yet ready to try these things, buddy. Take it slow and easy.

Wow, looks like Brando is selling the 2700mAh battery too, almost identical to Momax. Brando's price is USD33 + USD3 for shipping, not bad..

Much better than iPad? Well, it depends on the kind of user and the expectations you have for a tablet. For me, the Tab is a better companion than the iPad but I only miss one thing, the much better collection of educational games/apps for kids in iOS.

The Tab is like an oversized SGS, flashing method, custom roms, kernels and lagfix stuff are all available. No harder than doing the same on the SGS.

Also, the Tab's stock firmware 2.2.1 (I never bothered with 2.2) is waaaay quicker than even the stock 2.3.3 firmware on the SGS. Market opens and shows apps lists quicker, navigation in the UI is smoother and less laggy, apps open quickly etc. Overall I feel the Tab to be about 25% smoother/quicker than my SGS - both on EXT4 mind you, and custom kernels. With EXT4 conversion, I dare say there is no lag at all on the Tab - I was very surprised by the overall speed!!

P/S Benny888 was not very wrong to mention that software-wise, the SGS is one of the worst performing 1GHz Android phones in the market. I do agree with him, especially after using the Tab for a few days. The Tab feels like an SGS done right albeit without the beautiful SuperAMOLED ha ha..

Added on May 1, 2011, 4:19 pmIt's up to you, I have JVB 2.3.3 on my SGS with CF-ROOT 3.1 and ext4 lagfix enabled. Stock 2.3.3 still felt laggy to me without lagfix.

No money. Sticking with SGS and waiting for next iPhone model to arrive..

So that Samsung can learn from iPhone5 specs and features then create an even more powerful SGS3, quadcore 1.5GHz with 2GB RAM and GPU with 1GB RAM and a 2500mAh battery perhaps..

Yes, need to format. Start fresh.

My friend, the instructions can be found if you click on the signature hyperlink 'HardCORE's SpeedMod Kernel: Installation Guide & FAQ' in the first post on that forum.

Oh, I wasn't aware that the Speedmod installation procedure on GB was different than on Froyo..
