My battery is getting more uneven,I think. Before,a full charge was a 97%,now it's a 96%. Am I doing anything wrong?  rclxub.gif

Full charge as in you leave the charger till "full charge" notification comes out, and when you unplug it drops right down to 96-97%?

Yupe,any idea why? Do note that I fully exhausted the battery prior to this,to do a battery calibration or so they say.

Hmm tried wiping battery stats via CWM once you drain down to 0%?

If not shouldn't be like that, could be battery can't hold charge as well already hmm.gif

I haven't rooted it yet,will get to rooting once I verified that the shopkeeper has registered my phone with SME. Darn,forgot to check it when I bought the phone.

Couldn't be the battery problem,just got bough the phone like a week ago. Or could it?  icon_question.gif

Since it's new it's unlikely, but there's always a possibility.

Hmm have any friends to swap a batt temporarily to see if the batt is the problem?

I think it's normal mine also like that..
But do take note, when it drops to 97%, but you try leaving it about 10 minutes without touching it, it will go back to 100%.. mine when back to 100%..
Like I said, the cable holds extra charge, not all the charge is in the battery yet..
it takes time for the battery to go to full charge...
*
Do you guys wait for the "fully charged" icon to pop up in status bar?

Mine holds at 100% for quite a while, since 100% as pikachu explained before holds more charge than say, 99% and below (to mask battery's deterioration in max charge holding)

Even on 100% without fully charged icon mine doesn't dip to 97%. Think that can happen if you use the phone quite a bit while it's at 100%, and then unplug.

Can't,my friends are either using Blackberries or Nokia S40 phones,so that's out of the question. Could it be the battery is still adapting to my way of using it or something? Is it possible?
*
Hmm I'm not an expert, but I guess to troubleshoot wise, do what the above comments suggested, and see got difference or not:

1. When fully charged icon appear, leave it in for say, 30 mins or so and do not use the phone; or
2. After you unplug and it dips down, leave it for 5-10 mins, see if it bounces back up, probably coz battery meter not so accurate

Ok,will do this. If it's not accurate,how can I make it accurate? Only calibrating method?
But my phone was off when I fully charged it,so I wasn't using it. Maybe system fault?
*
Ah ok,never tried charging while phone is off before hmm.gif

Yeah could be battery stats not so accurate

Would suggest you not overly worry about it, unless you seem to have a problem in regular use (like abnormally short battery life etc). I know can be annoying to see it dip, but if your average charge cycle still ok, shouldn't be a prob right smile.gif

Really? Thought it was more safer to turn off the phone while charging. I guess it's an old wives' tale. Googling around on how to fix battery measurements,but the results are  rclxub.gif

Just make sure to check the backup after you done it. If everything goes well can keep the backup file in different places just to be safe smile.gif highly recommended app thumbup.gif

Ran the check and it says 0 bytes differ and all that I think, so should be fine right tongue.gif

Yeah gonna put it elsewhere as well to be safe smile.gif


Added on February 8, 2012, 12:02 pmOh and for those who were talking bout kitchen app, not sure if this is the problem you're facing, but found something else in his thread:

QUOTE
Q: After falshing siyah kernel kitchen Pro app does not works anymore
A: CWM5 comes with siyah kernel, this custom recovery has a bug related to mount point for sdcard (internal/external). Two possibility:
-You can still use the kitchen app for downloading packages but in order to flash packages you should reboot manually your phone in recovery mode and install packages located in /sdcard/download/CheckROM_REVO/
-If you remove your external sdcard the kitchen will work fine!


QUOTE
Q: I am not able to flash via Kitchen???
A:Delete Clockworkmod folder
Reason:
Previously to make the kitchen flash in older version of CWM5 we need to use a salte hash file that was placed in the Clockworkmod folder, Now with the updated CWM5 the actually problem with CWM5 was fixed by the respective creator!

So now what happens is that all you people have that salted hash file remaining in ur sd card that doesn't allow to flash stuff in the newer better CWM5, thats why when u delete the Folder it stats working coz the salted hash file gets deleted!

Now you may ask why delete the folder, when u can delete the file only!!
LOL answer is simle the Android os never recognizes the file there so when u open myfiles you never find the salted hash file inside the clockworkmod folder! You can use other apps and methods to delete the file but then there is the obvious questions from noobs!!

So Moral the problem is only with that one salted hash file and not ur backup

Okay, that I am not too sure, but what I am sure, is that in order to play, you need internet connection..
When off WIFI, cannot play...
Actually I thought it can be played offline like modern combat 2..
But now I think they added items which could be purchased online, and multiplayer too..
That's why they need wifi..

haha ~~ same problem~~ LOL~~

Hmm not sure where samsung puts it.

From my experience with gameloft games:
1. Downloaded from gameloft website, it'll go to /sdcard/gameloft/games/[gamename]
2. Downloaded from market, it'll go to /sdcard/Android/data/[com.gameloft.android.xx]

Few here use stock rom, but never really heard of stability issues complaints from them.

Do you install pirated apps?

Hey guys,what if I download the data for a certain game,a free game,Blood and Glory and its apk file from a certain website because I don't wanna use my phone to dl it. Does it count as piracy? No right? And furthermore,where do I put the data folder? Do I need to root?
*
Well I guess no, it's not piracy per se. But you risk having malicious files or whatever inside since it's not from the source server.

No, you won't need to root. It goes in the internal sd. For directory, try downloading abit first with your phone, then you'll have an idea where to put it. Most games are different, think glu mobile ones have their own folder, and some other developers as well. The rest usually go in the /sdcard/Android/data/ folder

Not even a single pirate apps. I don't support pirate apps.
Weird for me. When on 2.3.3, none of this ever happen.  rclxub.gif

Hmm pretty abnormal huh.

If it's a recent thing, can probably troubleshoot by uninstalling recent apps / removing recent tweaks / etc and see if the problem goes away?

Guys anyone on checkrom who downloaded the rotation animation mod?

By default think only stuff like gallery has that animation. So it works fine, but when I use gallery and rotate it, I see the animation happening twice >_>

Any workaround or how to revert ah? Don't see a "stock animation" or anything like that laugh.gif

Ah found it in the same thread. Hmm but reading through it does have minor problems with CRT off and what nots. Found a restore file as well so I did that instead. Maybe i'll check in later ons to see how the thread progresses, if at all =p
