Thanks. You reply helped me a lot!! smile.gif
I have nearly the same opinion with yours one.

However, I feel strange as there are many people telling me that they have only 300 - 400mb of ram usage only. Why can't I reach it? T.T

What is your phone uptime right now?

Same here, CR V6 + siyah 2.6.12 arnd 400-500mb. I don't see the need to care so much as we have so much ram available, heck, the s2 has double the ram of my old Pentium desktop. Follow ant's saying, if it doesn't lag, then dont need to worry abt it

whoops sorry ant! Stupid autocorrect sweat.gif

I wonder how sensation users get through the day, normally s2 already 400-500mb, with their 768mb, won't the device lag all the time? hmm.gif

If an app on ur phone is using ur data, then it will eat up ur credits. MMS needs data to download the image/video

The last time i was on ICS, I tried LPB firmware. Was stable, decent performance but pretty horrible screen on battery usage. Max i could get was 2 and a half hours before the battery totally died. Suggest you wait for official ICS

if u spend a lot of time in bus, i recommend buying yoobao portable charger. Good investment. i brought it together when travelling, 3 hours on bus = still 100% battery smile.gif
*
Which one did u buy? All the tourists look at u in envy for sure brows.gif

Anyways, I found CR V6 and RedPhill to be the best, the screen on time on it is INSANE. I can hit 4 hrs easily, maybe 4:30 if I use it till its dead, if straight usage non stop, 5 hrs guarantee. But standby time seems to be a little crappy, last night no data no wifi, drain 8% sweat.gif

recently, the Android Contacts menu is unable to sync with WhatsApp contacts, even I have force it to sync with whatsapp account many times also the same, this causes me unable to know which friend has whatsapp installed, and end up have to go to whatsapp app to search

how to resolve this ah, it only happens after a recent firmware reinstall..
*
Maybe try adding a +60 to the front of the contacts number, or if there's already a +60, remove it and see

When its grey it means it hasn't fully connected, when its blue means its fully connected. If u tick only them if connected, it will be grey until its fully connected then it will turn blue

And the point is that it will drain battery fast, and I am referring to the post above, please read above..

Not exactly, you can just make the os to run only on a single core at a low frequency, so it doesn't drain much battery. Quad core doesn't mean running all four cores at once, if so, battery will be dead in no time

+1, yeah but it would be good if the manufacturers could allow us to control how many cores the consumer chooses, like for instance S2 cannot choose the number of cores..
ohmy.gif
*
That wouldn't be good, later some idiot users force the phone to run on all cores at highest frequency at all time thinking performance will be good then battery drains like hell and they blame the phone for having such crappy battery doh.gif

Maybe someone can create an app like voltage control to do so, but I don't really see the need, Samsung roms power optimizations are already good enuf in my opinion

While we're talking about quad core here. What apps would really get the most out of a quad core processor? I mean,it's not like any apps on the market right now really needs a quad core. Utilizing a quad core just means that casual android user will now have more reason to be ignorant on how they treat their apps,like not closing it properly,IMO,might be wrong though. Battery wise,well,we'll have to see it in the coming models.

Apps on market haven't even fully utilise dual core, now got quad core already doh.gif devs really need to start working hard on their apps to keep up with tech

Apparently, the LG one has a 4+1 core; the extra core will be used to run normal tasks so won't drain that much battery.

If true, then it's the best of both worlds. The only question now is how effective and intuitive the core switching will be.

" (...) the Tegra 3 features a 4+1 "Companion Core" design, with a fifth low power unit available to take care of more mundane tasks without draining the battery. "

Kind of old news sweat.gif we know tegra 3 had a companion core in Jan already when transformer prime was announced tongue.gif
