wanted to tell u earlier, any freq below 368mhz is also using same VDD=900. so, even if your lowest freq = 122mhz, still using same voltage, no difference in battery life.

also, if u set your max to 1ghz, in theory, should save some battery, which VDD=1200 compare stock 1.4ghz (1275), but in real life, there is possibility App run slower, everything need more time to execute, say, loading an App takes 2 ms, now takes 2.1ms, not noticeable for human, but in long run, CPU running at 1ghz longer. whereas if at 1.4ghz, it takes 2 ms, finished, it automatically switch back to low freq.

but these stuff are very hard to justify. so, u try with various setting, chose something which you think best for interaction / battery.

Erm... Anyway, even before I root it and decrease the Min CPU, it already drains to 96% for 8hours (sleeping mah). That's why I suspect it's an apps that caused that. Possible because of juice defender? Because after I come back to KL, I disabled juice defender. In my hometown I have it on all the while and sleeping for 8 hours(unplug before sleep). Wake up normally still 98% or worst 97%. I thought is Messenger(FB) that caused that but I uninstalled it. Tonight try overnight with Juice Defender on. See what it does.

I don't quite understand why you wanna move them to SD. My SD card only got one folder is needed by Apps. That's the Aura Folder, used by SYGIC. All other apps I install in internal. This means a faster load time and also that I can remove SD card anytime while still be able to use all my apps. My Internal memory still got 37XMB(is quite much... Maybe can install another 50~80apps. USB Storage 700++MB(I keep Papago Map inside. More updated mah... SYGIC can't use also nvm). All the media files in external SD. So far so good.

those small apps ok to install on device... what about big apps size like games?

Now I got 21*6 = 126 Apps/Widget (Lazy to exclude those things. I open the Downloaded Application list and count how many pages I have. 21 pages, each page 6 apps/widget). I haven't install any HD Games though. If I do, it'll be in external SD(Game data in external SD). This 126 Apps, included games like Talking Tom, Angry Birds, Where's my water, cut the rope, galaxy, etc etc. Also apps like Facebook, twitter, viber, yeslife, etc etc. 37X MB left in internal storage. 700MB Left in USB Storage(400 MB is Papago Map Data). No apps is installed in external SD yet. Even if the system did it, I move them back to phone. blush.gif

hmm.gif  i see... i am planning to install hd games though just worry it might not be able to store those data if it is on usb storage.
i'm just curious how come the app2sd indeed moves those installed apps to external sd card, but it shows internal usb storage space instead.

May i know how does the system automatically install apps to external sd? Everytime i install new apps, it ask my permission to move or not.
*
Oo Why I install it no ask me. LOL... I only check in System Settings, 'Manage Applications'. If see apps in SD then I move to phone. You can patch your HD Games installer to install to external SD.

Aww... My battery weren't as sustainable as before. Under clock to 800 or 1GHz also not much effect. I mean not sustainable is for idling. When I first bought... 8 hours only takes battery from full to 98 or 97. Now easily down to 96. cry.gif

ya lo... it doesn't make sense at all just vibrate and alarm wont cause ur battery drain so fast on idle mode some more. How is the phone when it is not on idle mode? Battery die even faster? Check your background apps.

biggrin.gif Maybe he set alarm every minute and the vibrator continues to vibrate throughout the hour and he still can't wake up? laugh.gif

im on paid sygic and galaxy w, mine gps locked very fast ... make sure u untick the wifi method for location detection, and use gps instead.

thanks.
*
SYGIC does locks based on ROUGH POSITION (Based on 'Location Services'. Cell tower/wifi) while Papago requires EXACT LOCK on Satellite. Even though not accurate based on so called Location Services(Google location? Something like that) But it at least give you a rough idea where you are on the map. Papago no fully fixed GPS signal=never lock.

Hello guys, I am having a little problem with my phone GPS...

I am using Sygic, but when my phone (galaxy W) try to getting the GPS signal, its very very slow... it takes very long to get all the signal... and sometimes when moving the signal will lost... its very hard for my phone to detect GPS signal...

However, my GF using Galaxy mini at the same time with me, she can get the GPS signal within 2 minutes... but mine still have to wait for signal for very long....
Can anyone help me solve this?

GPS locking shud be faster with data plan enabled (less than 1 minute). sometimes around 10 second. I guess it depends on your location (signal strength)
*
Ya... Should be faster with AGPS. Those which locks within 10s or 10s+- mainly because you locked into that particular place before. Sometimes I can even get 6s. If I enable GPS at the very same place again after a day or so.

greenish tint is not normal. A little bit blueish when looking at certain angle is normal, it's Super Amoled Plus characteristic. luckily mine doesnt have greenish problem biggrin.gif
*
Is it? I have seen 3 units of S2 around me. All greenish. At first I see is blueish but after my friend mentioned it's greenish. And yes, I do agree. White ain't as white too. I would say SLCD colour is more accurate (of course except the blacks since AMOLED switch off completely to display black).

sure can! good to know the gps.conf help u lock GPS faster. it does help me too. biggrin.gif

actually this trick about GPS was an idea from tch9 (in this forum).

Market apps 'Fasterfix' changes the gps.conf file too. That's the simpler way. Else go download the gps.conf and replace ori one.

QUOTE(cowithgun @ Feb 14 2012, 02:31 PM)
simply copy the /system/etc/gps.conf into you phone. you can download the gps.conf for malaysia in this link:

hi all~
WTA = i just bought a SGW i8150 3 weeks ago , now i have a problem with RAM ,, the ram show 280/351 .its keep running on 70% to 90% .is there any way to down the ram usage ?even i uninstall all apps oso same .minimum run at 190/351.
pls help . than you.

No way. You must root and apply V6 Supercharger. That way low memory killer really does its job and keep homescreen unkilled.

QUOTE(kevintth @ Feb 15 2012, 04:36 PM)
It's normal lor...  mine also like that. What i did, i just use the KILL apps widget to clean all the apps that running in the background if it is over 80-90%. It is actually OS service running in the background.

The only way to reduce the RAM usage through Custom Rom  haha
*
Actually root enough d. But I lazy to freeze/remove those rubbish apps yet. Lazyzyyzyzyzyzyzy. Btw, after applying V6 supercharger. 'Clear Memory' is really 'Clear Memory'. Everything! EVERYTHING including the launcher got killed. RAM will sudden drop to 1XXMB/351MB. I'm still on stock rom.


Anyone got Gun Bros? How to move data to ext SD? GL to SD ain't working.
