How long does the batt of i9100G drop from 100 to 99? weird mine drop from 100 to 99 within 5 min..just type 1 sms and standby then wake it and saw my batt is 99..now only 1 hours 45 min already drop till 90% with 10 min voice call and few sms only..no wifi and mobile internet and checked the wake lock..nothing waking my device up..

did u unplug the charger once the battery reaches 100% and the notification asking u to unplug?
try continue charging for awhile and u will find that the battery will stay longer at 100%..

I've rooted and uninstalled some of the samsung bloatwares using TB. Just want to ask if there's any way to have them all back like the original state?

Isn't the "camera fail" bug removed when you reboot the phone?

Ya but reboot will only solve the issue temporarily..it will still happen again..and that's frustrating.. mad.gif

All this talk about camera fail, never experience it. Even before rooted/custom ROM. Hmmm...

I only cant view videos on the browser but I seldom watch vid on my phone. So I just forgot about it.
May i know how often do you use the camera?really never once fail?

I was hoping this ROM could fix the camera failed issue with the modified camera apk but unfortunately not.

Anyway, felt some slight improvement compared to stock ROM in term of smoothness and battery life.but the ics theme doesn't quite work for me.experience some lag especially on messaging.had few seconds of no response from the keyboard.

I'm on superrom v3.0 and experiencing phone blackout n no response after leaving it for some time (no specific period, but the last time it happened was around 2hrs left untouched). Also sometimes it hanged for few seconds on the unlock screen.

Anyone else experience this?

How long have you had the ROM?

Have you tried to clear data, dalvik and fix permissions?

Have u got any cpu limiting software like setcpu or cpu master on? Usually i'd face this kinda problem when set to powersave governor on some ROMs. Usually that's the thing. Now I limit myself to conservative governor and not try to squeeze the daylights out of the battery. Also any conflicting controls on ur cpu? e.g u have JuiceDefender and also SetCpu/CpuMaster controlling the same thing?

I have tried many custom ROMs, eventually all of them will have one issue or the other. hence i am back and happily using KL3 deodexed  and make my own tweaks there.

I'm scaling hotplug 600-1200MHz and I/O scheduler to deadline.

I just found out that my rom changed from SuperROM#v3.0 to SuperROM#v1.1...weird hmm.gif ...anyone knows what's happening?
