Seriously have you installed betterbatterystats. These high drains can be solved once we pinpoint the source (which i guess is the facebook app).

I haven't install it yet.
Will do it soon.
I killed the facebook app b4 i sleep last night
Anyhow. I'll update once i install the betterbatterystats apps

dont think so. they will release quad core so that SGSIII can support next generation after ICS and Jellybean (i heard jellybean oni support that funny looking galaxy phone  shocking.gif )

sincerely hope that our battery technology can found a way to breakthrough the bottleneck they are facing now. we want slim+power!!!!!!!!!!!  thumbup.gif  thumbup.gif

agree, why cant battery technology improve as fast as processors and gpus? cry.gif

2 yrs ago, smartphones could last a day with moderate usage. 2 yrs later, smartphones can still only last a day sad.gif

No only for the market app. Longshot, can you check if your keyboard language is set to English (US).

Edit: what is your market version?

Actually they got improve. 2 years age cpu are 500mhz with 2.8" screen. Now we have 4.3" screen and 1.2ghz dual core. Battery life still the same. My HD2 1250 battery is about the same size as the SGS2 1650.

Well, get the app, and then find out what's the leech sucking your batt juice.

whats the difference between g (i9100g) and non-g machine?
i also see there is a i9100t.

how to tell the difference between ori and ap machine when buying?

Bro, you wont get a T version unless it's AP phone from Australia. And try not to buy that version as I9100T is full of Telstra telco bloatwares :-)

It SHOULD. No idea if Samsung will ACTUALLY release an ICS build for it, but if the Nexus One can run it, the SGS2 blardy well can.

SGS3 will SURE have a HD reso, full RGB stripe screen though, if you fancy that. It'll be a long wait for it to  OFFICIALLY hit Malaysia though (even the SGS2 took it's time), so the question should really be: do you need a phone NOW?

And unless Sammy found a way to really optimise SAMOLED+ efficiency, the HD version will suck battery like a vampire while in use.

Nah..not in a rush...

I can live with my old phones...it's just that it's kinda been awhile i did not upgrade my phone. Last time it was like 1 year once but my current phone is entering it's 3rd year now laugh.gif

blink.gif So when is SGS3 due to release? Anyway we still got xda to get our ICS early. Hopefully...

Most probably the same cycle as SGSII. Launching in April and arrive here around June. By that time SGSII is already one full year old.
Yes xda dev will surely port ICS into SGSII once Google release its source codes a month after Nexus release to market. Only thing is, it is from Google ICS source codes and not from Samsung ICS source codes. Some Touchwiz features are bound to not working properly if ported from Google souce codes as what happened with CM7. But atleast SGSII can still taste ICS. Better ada than takde :-)

LOL don't think like this, else you won't buy any phone. If you wait for S3, then you will see S4 specs (like 4 cores), then you wait again. It's endless to wait for better one.

With current S2 specs, everything run at full speed. 1GB ram is more than enough, it always have 300~500MB free RAM.

1.2 GHz is also enough for most of apps. Next time if not enough, just overclock and wait it spoil, then change new one. tongue.gif

Oh ya, here's the 1.2 GHz VS 1.6 GHz overlock screen shot that I taken yesterday.

Battery tech is DEAD. That's why. To compensate, like antt00 said, proc/SOC tech evolves for better power consumption.

To summarise, from my experience:

Palm Zire - Monochrome display, 16mhz proc, 2MB storage, Palm OS, Li-ion batt, no network capability, no cam = 4-5 days of use.

Sony Clie SJ22 - Colour display, 33mhz proc, 16MB storage, Palm OS, Li-ion, no cam, bluetooth = 2-3 days of use.

Clie TJ37 - Colour display, 200mhz proc, 128MB storage, WiFi, PalmOS, Li-ion, VGA cam = 1-2 days of use (1-2 hours surfing time).

Axim X51v - VGA colour display, 600mhz proc, proper 3D GPU, 64MB RAM, 256MB storage, WIFI/bluetooth/IrDA, winmo, Li-Po = 1-2 days use (1 hour max surfing time).

5800/N97 mini - nHD screen, 300mhz proc, no GPU, 128MB RAM, 265MB storage (8GB on the N97M), 3MP cam (5 on the N97M), 3G/BT/WIFI/GPS, li-poly = 1-2 days of use (7-8 hours surfing 3G)

N900 - WVGA TFT screen, 600mhz proc/SGX530 GPU, 256MB RAM, 32GB storage, 5MP cam, 3G/BT/WIFI/GPS, li-poly = 1-2 days of use (4 hours surfing 3G)

iPhone 4 - "Retina" IPS screen, "underclocked" 1ghz proc/SGX535, 512MB RAM, 32GB storage, 5MP cam, 3G/BT/GPS/WIFI, li-poly = 1-2 days of use (6-7 hours surfing 3G)

SGS2 - WVGA SAMOLED+ screen, 1.2GHz DUAL CORE proc/Mali 400, 1GB RAM, 16GB storage, 8MP cam, 3G/BT/GPS/WIFI, li-poly = 1-2 days of use (5-6 hours surfing 3G)

So, in direct comparison (surfing time here representing continuous surfing time), things HAVE improved, really. I mean I USED to be limited to AN HOUR surfing through WIFI with my Axim. ONE FREAKIN HOUR.

And Sammy has ALREADY produced an ICS phone what? It's called the Galaxy Nexus lol.

Yeah we should really get some nuclear powered batteries and throw away our chargers, leave data on 24/7, play asphalt 6 for 12 hrs straight and never have a need for spare batteries. biggrin.gif

let me complain abit can anot?...

buying these gadgets, I have already know there's never a best one. Cuz better ones will keep on coming. But I will still use my phone until it give up on me (fingers crossed at my s2 not to give up so soon).

I haven't root my machine. So can't do the overclock.
But overclock will consume more battery juice right?


Btw, sometimes I happen to experience lag. Not sure what's wrong.
