And I just found out Android does not support Off-Alarm. sad.gif Switching from Symbian to Android... Kind of disappointed that such feature is not present.

And Google has no plans to implement it.

hi all,

I just got my SGS2 about 2 weeks ago and the batt life seems to be the problem. I let the wifi and 3G on all the time and at best my batt will last upto 6 hours just using to make/receive calls and emails. But last night my friend suggested that I use 2G network instead of 3G. I tried and it paid off. Today the batt last for the whole day in office and a bit more after reaching home. No need to recharge during office or when driving. There is no prob when sending/receiving emails as well syncing with contact and calendar...I am at peace with my SGS2 now...I think I'll be a happy user for the next 1 year or so....

Cheers
Shahar

one quick question...i notice some of the flip case is using magnet for flip closing..one shop told me that now most casing not using magnet due to smartphone having built in compass...if you used the flip casing with magnet, sure your compass do not function properly..but how's the effect for the phone itself when u dont used the compass?..i mean everyday use?..hope someone with experience can help with this..thanks

bro, all this little implementation are not in OS level doesn't mean you cant use other FREE app to enable (disable data). you can download it from market for FREE! i would say its not fair to comment on Samsung/Google implementation of "UI" on OS level that doesn't come with a shortcut to allow you to turn of 3g, turn off data or etc. everybody has their own opinion or preference and there is no 100% perfect OS especially a mobile platform that cater to mass consumer market. why dont you ask the same question to other mobile platform such as BB, iOS, WP7? if you can find any of this OS allow you to turn on/off 3G within 2 clicks, then i will give in whatever you trying to say here.

There is widget in market allow you to switch from 2g to 3g..i used it all the time.very easy

guys, do more research on 3G vs 2G first before blindly giving comment. Yes agree to the point of ferrarri theory but do you know what's the impact of turning on 3G permanently? if you are at full 3G coverage area then the impact on battery is minimum but if you are not, expect battery drain because your phone will tend to boost the signal lock down 3G network. That's the culprit of battery drain. i never say you cannot turn on 3G, turn on only when needed like surfing or downloading. 2G is more than enough for all the IMs or emails.

r u sure 2G can check email?..

Why not? 2G is the GPRS, 2.5G is the EDGE.
Btw, anyone know how to make Monopoly Classic HD to work on SGSII?

did you ever tried to surf or check email using 2G network?..I dont think we can..you still need to turn on data network to check email or surf..regardless GPRS/3G...as GPRS is consider data..without enable data network, you can only used for call/sms..just tried just now.

After close to 3 weeks using this phone I realized that;

Battery dries out from 11pm (Fully charged)
to
Next morning 10am (27% Remaining) not sure due to apps that I have. Just live wallpaper and 3G enabled, everything turn off.

I also realized that sometimes I will not get any 3G / H+ Signal at all, I have to reboot my phone to get the signal back.

Any advice?

I believe due to wifi sharing.mine the same last time.never on wifi.lastly freeze wifi sharing solved my problem..using tb pro
