Anyway to disable push mail while on data connection but at the sometime enable push mail when on wifi?
Didn't see this posted on front page.

What I mean is: switch on wifi-mail is pushed in.
Switch to 3G, no mail is pushed into the inbox-have to manually fetch.

I just got hammered 3 hours ago when I enabled 3G to check something online only to be bombarded with 2 emails, deducting rm3 from my credit within seconds! sweat.gif doh.gif

that day I went to watch transformers. Battery around 90% when i go watch. after the movie. My phone feels so warm( warmer than usual ). Alot whatsapp and emails came in. It was on EDGE network. the battery left 32%. why like that??????

the movie is about 2hrs 45min... so about 60% drain in that time is unusual..

I had a similiar issue.
Went in to watch transformers with a 95% charge, came out of the cinema and the battery was TOTALLY FLAT! wtf!?
Wifi was off,phone was in silent mode...dunno how that happened

transformers suck the battery out icon_idea.gif

either that or no other explanations, maybe the frequencies that is in cinemas will discharge your battery faster, even if you're on edge, still battery wont die so fast. must go cinema and experiment ad hmm.gif

i'm satisfied in overall usage of this superb phone but it certainly has something more to be improved. i'm gonna list down the issues ive faced using this phone for almost 1week:
1. Battery life.. i guess everyone has faced this problem too. (i'm using yoobao power bank all time time.. so get used to it already.)
2. home button sometimes doesnt work.. sometimes in home screen and i wanna long press it in order to get to the task manager it doesnt respond at all.. need to swipe to another page or opening another program only it will work.
3. camera recording: 720p seems better than 1080p.. dont know why though.. or it's just me....
4. some games has graphic issue.( not so important for me. coz i'm not that much a gamer but my friends are complaining, so has to list it out)
5. heating issue, it really feels hot.. hmmm..if the phone not burning out i guess it's not a big problem..right?
6. lack of instant capture camera mode.(by instant i mean really INSTANT) even i swap to face detection in focus mode it still has to focus for 0.5sec only capture.. Anyone can recommend me a great instant capture camera app so that i can capture photo as fast as iphorn? (dont get me wrong, i am not an ifag)

i guess that's it for now. may list down more issues in the future usage.

If you want to flash stock kernel must match back original insecure kernel. If you want to flash insecure kernel any kernel will do

Cinemas are now blocking signals somehow? Either that or the construction of the cinema block signal and as we all know, low signal is a battery killer.

thats why i dont like ROM or theme with % battery, it's really psychology war. i prefer AOSP-look battery indicator on notification bar.. for me, as long the battery can last 10 hours, its much much better.

i dont blame sgs2 battery for eating the juice, coz i have lots of apps running background, i.e whatsapp, Latitude, GTalk, Google+, Go Launcher, smart taskbar etc.. they all come with the toughest consequence which is battery drainage!
