Been using 4.1.2 for over 1 month and it DOES consume more batt than 4.1.1

BTW redpill kernel 1.0.1 have already included the patch for the emmc failure thats been plaguing S3.

How to set Note 2 to auto connect to bluetooth device?

it is already auto for me

If your device is paired , it's auto connect . If not , u have to do it manually

Someone can help me? after i update to 4.1.2. it seems my phone cant connect to my home wifi. it says 'network disabled. Poor connection' but the bar is full.

Well it is paired, but after disconnect, it doesn't auto connect

The BT is MW600, paired to 2 phone, and it auto paired with Blackberry, is it possible due to pairing to two devices? Thanks

My battery stat after update to 4.1.2...
Not so great compare to 4.1.1...
Any idea why Android System consuming so much battery juice...
Previously SOT was in 1st place...

OK, I went out for lunch and I had a nice lunch. Happily took one photo and wanted to share via FB. But the connection was bad and until now the photo wasn't uploaded yet.

Holy crap, my battery drained from 92% to 86% which I think it was trying to upload for me. Damn you FB and also I noticed you must properly quit your camera after finish using it, as it is also quite a high "consumer".

If i am not wrong it will auto connect with the last connected device. Meaning you need to manual connect it first with note 2. Then it will auto connect the next time.

Bad connection can drain battery even more especially if you using it.

True that, I have a very bad connection with Digi in my house and my phone is alternating between E, 3G and H on and off. I lost 20% for an hour SOT just trying to load Facebook and Instagram. Battery draining betul lol.

I have a very dumb question. Let's say whenever i download an app from playstore, it consumes a certain storage. Then, After i install/extract it out it consumes even larger space on phone. But where is the .apk file that i downloaded from the playstore stored? Can i find it and delete the file so that i can conserve more space in my phone? Another question, how does the storage work if i update the app to the latest version. Will it overwrite the previous version and hence occupy the newly updated version space only?

this morning 9am battery is 100%. gaming, reading news, twitter, facebook for 45mins during journey to work. reach office switch on WiFi. occasional checking the phone see if there are any msg.

battery now 85%.

ok or not?

that is amazing already... at 2pm already 85%!!!

thanks ben. will try to do a fresh install of monx and perseus. I got a feeling I fark up my battery after charging it with my ipad 1 charger.

Edited: ok, my fault not reading the previous thread... found my answer already

suddenly lots of discussion on battery usage again..
Sometimes a reboot will resolve most of the problem. That's cos some apps that you previous used are causing the fuss..

4.1.2 does consume battery more than 4.1.1. I have rebooted a few times and the battery consumption is not as good as 4.1.1 but still acceptable for me can last more than a day. I got 69% left with 2hrs 15m SOT with total 17hrs of battery before I recharged again.

Not so sure about that. I'm still on 4.1.1. Have yet the time to flash to 4.1.2.
will update once I flash to 4.1.2 and monitor on the battery consumption.
But nevertheless, GNote 2 battery is by far the best in smartphone industries to date.
