QUOTE(keeekeee @ Feb 20 2012, 10:34 AM) my note cannot even last a day. wondering what app cause the prob ... headache What do you mean a day - 24 hours ??? I am a medium user - about 2 hours browsing, RSS, Newsfeed, Tweeter, Facebook updates every hour, email check 3 accounts every 30 mins, few calls and sms, 30 mins video youtube - easily last me 12 -14 hours/day. I am happy with this So depends on your expectations of battery life Install betterbatterystats to check what apps is waking up your phone when not in used

QUOTE(duxz @ Feb 20 2012, 01:26 PM) Just need to check if it is normal that the Note with ics has a battery usage of Android OS 36%. I used to be getting much lower rate than this on other roms in the past. m Dont worry too much over this. This % keep changing . Example now mine is at 28% You cannot compare as you do not have a control status as a guide What you see now will change later on

QUOTE(duxz @ Feb 20 2012, 01:40 PM) once again, thanks Benny for the prompt reply. On a separate topic. If i were to check my running process, i notice that is 2 application running which is MAPServiceSamsung and Google service which consist of Cloud to devices messaging service, NetworkLocationService and Google Messaging Service. Any idea what this does? trying googling it but not much info on it. I think these are the samsung social hubs in background. I dontt have such as I freeze all the samsung hubs Added on February 20, 2012, 3:01 pmQUOTE(taxidoor @ Feb 20 2012, 02:51 PM) swype not working on my ics any solution?

QUOTE(zeneziz @ Feb 20 2012, 06:43 PM) Sorry for my ignorance but can you tell me what is AOSP, MIUI and CM builds? I'm planning to flash Substancer LA6 rom, isit one of those build that you mentioned? AOSP is pure Google build without the Samsung added UI while CM is enhanced version of AOSP. MIUI build is leaning towards iphone like UI Substancer LA6 is NONE of the above - it is close to Samsung stock build

QUOTE(zeneziz @ Feb 20 2012, 07:10 PM) thanks for the clarification benny. i heard you mentioned few times that substancer rom was one of the best custom rom for battery saving and stability so am going to give it a try  btw there's no need to download separate custom kernel for this rom, right? Substancer version comes with fm 2.0 kernel. If you want you can try other kernel eg abyss, franco just flash the zip file from recovery I suggest you stay with the fm kernel first

QUOTE(Cynox @ Feb 21 2012, 09:54 AM) wow... finally. Hope they iron out those minor glitches.  I took down the Chinese leak last night as faced SOD twice - first time ever encountered such SOD in my Note. Other than other minor glitches, this SOD is a dissapointment

QUOTE(Cynox @ Feb 21 2012, 10:07 AM) SOD - screen of death? haven't encounter that. But actually putting on the Touchwiz UI on ICS can't really feel the difference with GB on TouchWiz.  Maybe becoz the leaked rom is still beta/alpha only. Hopefully the final ROM will be great. Another annoyance is the USB storage. First, cannot turn on USB debug. Second, need to tab it then only can connect cable. btw, no one have any idea to solve the caller ID problem? i.e. known contact name not display when receiving calls.  The caller ID is a bug ; I noticed it too and has been reported by other users too I have no problem with the USB debug Anyway this leak ICS is a very good indication of what to expect in the final released - a must have update I must say This post has been edited by benny888: Feb 21 2012, 10:12 AM

QUOTE(AMDunFreak @ Feb 21 2012, 10:28 AM) SOD = screen of death? phone still running but cannot wake up? This means the screen just goes off. No response at all when you tyry to switch on or pressing home button will not wake it up. Cannot even reboot into recovery mode Only way is to take out battery and put it back on to switch it on again.

No point flashing the Rocket ICS beta The S Pen cannot function as it used to be ; only just as a normal stylus only. Cannot press down to take screenshot and no sketching capabilities It is strange why the developers has taken off this important function And S memo is exclude - only Samsung apps app is included All the other Samsung apps excluded And ROOT is lost too

QUOTE(zeneziz @ Feb 21 2012, 05:29 PM) Hi guys, I'm very curious bout this, I did a full wipe before flashing and I suppose that it will wipe out everything but how come my pictures and videos and some mp3 files that I downloaded to the download folder were all still there? any ideas? Wipe only apps in the 2gb hidden partition. The viewable 11gb partition remains intact Added on February 21, 2012, 5:41 pmSyakstorm : unlike you I find the operating temperatures is lower by 2-3 degree c on the chinese leak ics rom. And overall battery usage is better The rocket icss without spen function is useless to me I read in the xda thread installing the baseband zcspl1 will eliminate sod. So about 2 hours ago I reinstalled back the chinese ics rom and change the baseband This post has been edited by benny888: Feb 21 2012, 05:41 PM

Currently the two software only control through few category.. But cannot display for example whatsapp on pc.. Wifi file explorer my favorite. It transfer files between phone n pc n vice versa faster than airdroid

QUOTE(Mio4Ever @ Feb 22 2012, 09:14 PM) Not sure if it's just me but it seems that my AdFree application isn't working. The ads still remain even after updating the hosts. It could be that the system's partition is Read Only but I could be wrong. Was wondering whether yours is working or not. I did not test this.
