Hi... Wanted to check with malaysian sgs2 user.. how is the battery life after all this while?? i been using close to a week n been monitoring it... i found tat with edge on 24 hrs (not 3g) n just normal usage of whatapps n nimbuzz, i cant seen able to pass the 24 hrs mark.. without using the phone (with edge on), battery has drained for 8% in 6 n half hour... is all tis normal??

i been reading a lot of batt views but mostly foreign user, they claim able to last for 1 n half day with average usage.. just want to know how malaysian user is fairing..

n how do i know if my battery is defective or the phone is drawing higher volt den usual..

i know battery usage is very subjective.. just wanted to know why dere is big gap...

thanks to everyone... S2 is really great phone n my 1st smartphone smile.gif

makes no sense, why would you want to keep updating and flashing.

find a stable rom, and flash it. end case for your case.

if an iphone is ur next choice, its just about the same if you didnt flash.

i dont root my phone anymore, and im still contented with what it can do for me daily.

honestly, keep flashing and flashing for wut.....

if ur a uni student, and ur problem was power and thus u wanna flash to get the best battery management, i think thats bullshit (sorry, no offense, and hopefully none taken)... ur probably with ur laptop everytime... so just plug in the cable and charge ur phone.

if ur working, ok, accepted (probably busy if ur in an understaffed company... *cough...."japs"...

if ur a student (form 1-5), this is a joke...

UNLESS, you just want to blast off from android.
basically, i "ONLY" assume the reason why ppl flash is because of the battery life on sgs2 that "BLOW", bloody mislead by that gsmarena with their cockster 2 day's battery

so, which one are you?

Since we're on the story of battery duration per charge, how well is it working for you guys?
I'm on wifi since 7am with constant smsing and whatsapping.

On 75% now. Didn't flash anything new since acquiring the phone yesterday.
Just turned off the auto sync + Screen brightness to the bare minimum which, IMO is still pretty bright

only on wifi. my network data is off, yet to get data plan, still evaluating options, digi is cheapest but i keep hearing complaints about service and stuff...

and yes, slide all the way to the left. its still good indoors, but outdoors abit too dark, was out earlier and i realized.  smile.gif

ooo... will try experiment it one day... but all the way to the left is really a waste for amoled screen... but anyway... user preference is the most important... smile.gif
