Using stock camera or an app?

I'm not sure but I only encountered this problem with CM9 with its buggy camera driver.

I can only get 5-6 hours with data usage on with my W now ever since I flashed CM9. I miss my previous 15 hours...

15 hours of data usage and it's full time on? I find that hard to believe.
*
Full time on as in interactive toggling with Juice Defender Ultimate. Technically the data is on standby until an app needs it and I refresh my Twitter feeds every 15 minutes. Maybe "full time on" is a bit misleading.

Juice defender will 'turn off' Data. It's not standby. Standy IMO means the HSDPA/EDGE/whatever icon is there, just the upload and download icon are greyed out.
*
The icon isn't there until a certain app needs to use it so I kinda consider it standby since it reconnects on demand.

The icon isn't there means the same as switching it off. It's Juice Defender that helps you toggle it on and off. Not suitable for me because it's too slow. I prefer doing it manually.  laugh.gif  laugh.gif

Slow ke? Mine works almost instantly. laugh.gif

Before I sold off my W, I was thinking of trying out Mutant ROM but never got to it. Maybe you could try it?

Any recommendation for custom rom?

Tried and tested is CowWithGun's Bionic 2 ROM aka CowROMv7. If not, Mutant ROM v1.21 looks pretty decent and interesting.

Go to the Apps tab then select and app. From there you have some options of what to do with it. So you just select Freeze and you're done! Simple. thumbup.gif

Actually it's this: http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...5074&hl=usb+jig

It forces download mode on your phone so you can basically recover a bricked phone.

My W just rooted. No custom rom flashed before. Then sold it and bought Nexus.
My nexus... Flashed only custom rom from 3 developers but due to insanely fast revisions overnight or once every 2 days. I think i flashed 20~30 times  laugh.gif
*
You have Compulsive Over-flashing Disorder laugh.gif

My W was only flashed 4-5 times where as my S III had it 8 times switching to and from ROMs.

please use it bro, I made it for the thread initially haha.

morning will be fully charged. use W to watch movies and occasionally 3g in the train, will arrive at office with 70%.

but 3g does suck alot of batt. sometimes need to charge 3 times a day. still considering whether to buy a portable charger  laugh.gif
*
A portable charger or external battery pack is definitely a life saver! After flashing CM9 for my W, the battery life dropped from a good 13 hours a charge to just 5-6 hours. doh.gif

So no matter where I go, I brought the little battery pack laugh.gif
