any recommended SetCPU setting for SGS2 ? so dat can save batt life ...

Each phone is different according to rom kernel etc. I suggest -25 each until you find a stable one. This mean try run and use the phone for 1-2 hours before minus.

Definitely not normal to reboot itself unless via schedule.

You mean the non-g will restart itself on the latest firmware? Also what does ''the screen will show send by itself'' mean? The screen will randomly come on and show that message?
*
Sounds scary!

QUOTE(antt00 @ Dec 29 2011, 11:37 PM)
Non G? The jump from stock rom 2.3.3 to 2.3.6 may have cause incompatibility with some app or settings since it is a non-wipe upgrade. If the problem persist its best to do factory reset.
*
Agreed on this. Most of the time those reboot can due to apps or UV. Must be either one from my experience.


Question guys. Between Siyah and Void Echo, which do you like? I noticed Siyah is good for stability and VE on the other hand is fast! the only bad thing about it is that the phone might lag when we play games sad.gif

*p/s the new Turkbey Rom really make me headache which those FC's. Wipe and finally solved tongue.gif

Haven't flash V30 yet. Cos if i flash I sure wipe cos diff rom base. So kinda lazy to do it now.

I flash v30 right after it come out. I got multiple FC etc etc. Especially with Voltage Control problem. What I can say is v30 + void echo is the best battery life. Dashyat man...
QUOTE(nobody#2 @ Dec 29 2011, 11:54 PM)
yes, it show send randomly, don't know what is it sent.. tomorrow will call 123 and check is it sending SMS..
*
Sending what? It could be....maybe a 'bad' app doing that? Maybe the phone sot and just send to service centre and see what they say is the best.

hi guys i am new to the forum and thinking of buying a galaxy s2, however before i take the plunge i went over to Samsung shop located at gardens mall to try the phone out....overall i was impressed especially with how clear the screen is....there is one problem i encountered with the demo that leaves me a little unsure. i noticed streaming imbedded YouTube videos the phone lagged considerably, 480p was manageable but not great, 720p produced very noticeable lag....1080p the phone wouldn't even play at all....looking at reviews from various online sources the sg2 shouldn't be having such a problem, what gives?

is this a common problem...i would greatly appreciate any response as that is the only quirk stopping me from buying the phone

Though my experience... It is just speed of Internet. Mine dont lag so can't say much.

Hi Antt ,

it look like sometime i can receive call sometime it can not.
do it because of 2g line?
and there is 3 choices either GSM/WCDMA or GSM or WCDMA .
which one do i choose for my data?
^ ^
*
2g line = only one thing at one time smile.gif

It is best set auto (GSM/WCDMA) as the phone will auto switch between E and 3G depending on coverage. Of course E is slower for sure.

I usually put mine at auto unless I am sure that area is superb good for 3G.

I dont think there is a perfect rom. Each has their pro and con. Best depends on what your usage is.

but lets say if i hav to send it back for warranty, i juz flash it back to stock rom and they wont be able to detect and stil can claim warranty rite?

thanks for any help guys..

If you have flash custom rom, it will void the warranty. To unroot and undo before sending back to shop,

Flash stock rom
Use JIG if need, to clear the counter

You are basically done smile.gif

Hey guys, when i closed some apps like games, the apps still shown in battery usage amd eating some percent of battery juice. I used task killer to make sure if the app is closed but the app isn't in the list. So why the closed game app still drain battery even after few hours and how can i solve this if it is a problem?
*
Facts you should know.

1. Task killer eats your battery
2. If you want to close app, exit the right way and not by home button.

Hello, im a new SGSII user.. Sorry got a noob question over here.. sad.gif
Im wondering how i could update my software? Everytime i checked for updates it fails to connect to server, or sort of. What are the effects of me updating the software? Is it going to change my android version to 3.0? Help!!  icon_question.gif
*
If you are using the original rom + kernel, you can connect to Kies (install on your computer or laptop) and it will prompt you whenever there is an official update.

If you want to use the latest rom + kernel, you can always head to XDA forum and there will be the links there. Of course, at there, you can root and modify your phone too smile.gif

Good luck! Drop me a line if you have questions.

any idea how to overcome this problem..mine if G not rooted and very less softwre installed.
*
First of all, it could sound like you have some rogue apps (if you have) issue. Sometime incompatible apps can cause such lag and hang. Highly suggest install legit app if you want to be safe.

It could also mean that your rom or kernel got problem. I suggest you do a full wipe and reinstall and see if that works.

Also, before that, check if you close apps properly by exit or close button and not the home button.

Hey guys, I have read the first page but still have another FAQ.

The RAM status that is shown in task manager is always 400MB++.
But the one in Settings > Application > Running Services > Running there only shows that I used around 200MB of RAM and 550MB++ RAM free.

What's the difference between these two?
Is there any ways to save up my RAM more effectively?
I was shocked when benny say that he only use 150MB ram. sad.gif
*
Always close or exit the application instead of pressing home button. Uninstall un-used apps is one of the way to go smile.gif

Seems odd. Try go CWM and clear battery stats.

You can also try:
charge battery til full
remove battery
wait 2-5 minutes
put in battery back
after this, do a few cycle run

Hope this works!
