Had same charging issue when i charged my phone for the second time after i upgraded the firmware. Just disconnect and connect the charger back. It will be back to normal. Had same issue once when using ICS so cant say it's JB bug.

i had this problem since i was on ICS. so cant say it's JB bug too, like charging problem that had been mentioned previously by a few people. Smart Stay isnt working well under very bright condition i guess. I usually left my phone on the table, directly under the office lamp. the screen didnt turn off by itself. but other than that, it's working good.

did nothing. it was just a minor problem for me so when it happened i just switch the screen off by myself. havent get the opportunity to test it under bright condition with JB though.

you can download the firmware from sammobile and flash using Odin.

toggling this on mean it is no longer beneficial even when we are in HSPA+ area aite? coz the maximum we can get is HSDPA speed, aite? considering this option. my phone's batt damn fast la drain now. can't get more than 3.5h screen time.

Does anyone know what gpsd is?



And this was what i got last night before i went to sleep. Batt drop almost 15% when idling.

Anyone know how to interpret this?

after almost one week i update the firmware, what i can observe are:

1. the temperature can easily go up even with light usage.
2. battery drains damn fast. When idling for less than 8 hours also can cost about 15% battery. As a comparison, with ICS, batt dropped around 2-3% after idling for around 10 hours, both with 3G on.
3. charging takes longer time. I did mention before that sometimes even with ICS, the phone even took 2 hours to be charged up to 40%. But that problem can be overcame if you replug the charger again.

But for normal charging, with ICS it usually took maximum 2h15m to fully charge from 20%. With JB, can took up to 30m extra.

4. On screen time, on JB, average i get is less than 2h30m. Very hard to even reach that time. Usage, checked Twitter and Instagram once in an hour, very few texting, one or two short calls, and checked in at one or two places on 4sq.

5. After upgrade, some profile pics in Whatsapp contacts did disappear. But they were reinstalled automatically after a few days.

p/s: i did check if i got install any app that might drink batt juice after i upgraded to JB but got none. Usage after and before upgrade is the same.

Nonetheless, this is what i experienced. I asked my friend he said battery performance so far is slightly better. No high temperature issue also. If the way we do firmware upgrade is also one contributing factor, well, we both did thru KIES.

Just some update to share here. It's quite wrong to advice the users to hold and not upgrade because not all are having the same problems and bugs. But if you ask me, i would say just stay with your ICS as long as you could.

and dont forget to reset to factory setting like a few of us had mentioned before. i did it today coz i kenot tahan the batt drain. so far, better than before. i didnt know have to reset to factory setting after do the upgrade. Not until the sifu here told so.

happened after you upgraded to JB? Try do factory reset. Or else, you can just simply replug your charger. It helped me. Always. But full charge will take longer on JB compared to ICS, for me. Takes around 50% more time.

Dont know got such app for android too. Used hippoVC when i used Apple products before. What's the app name?
