Guys, is the screen suppose to light up every time when you get a SMS? If yes, anyway to disable it?

It's quite distracting not to mention redundant since you already got LED indicator.

Rest assured checking through the settings is what I did in the first place. That setting in my phone wasn't ticked at all. Looked through the SMS settings as well. Unless I miss something, there's no obvious way to disable it from what I've seen.


It wastes battery for those who don't need it and the function isn't practical for most real-life situations. Let me give a personal example. With the phone in my pants, I hardly reached for the phone immediately every time I get a SMS. Even if I do, by the time my hands reach in my pocket, took out the phone, (open the flip for some of you), bring it up to eye level, , the screen would have turn off by then.

AudioOut_2 forms the bulk of my wakelock too.

I have been getting about 6 hours+ screen on time until the battery reached 5%. Can't seem to breach 7 hours.
Bluetooth, GPS, 3G all off. Mainly use for messaging, web browsing and some gaming. Battery dropped about 3% overnight in sleep mode.

Anyone here manage to get better screen on time with stock battery?

Huh that's interesting. Well next on the list is ConnectivityService. Mobile data is always disabled so not sure why the constant wakelocks.


Looks good but not available in Malaysia yet though.

That's fast. Thanks man

I can't seem to get Maps to detect my location using wifi only (without turning on GPS). It used to work very well and much quickly than securing a location via GPS. Now I keep getting the "location temporarily not available" error message. Any ideas why?

That setting is already checked

I may be confused here but isn't 4 hours+ screen on time is rather poor?

Here's mine. Strictly wifi usage but still think it's quite poor.

Haha that's was what I thought until I see others getting 8 hours SOT in other forum.



We even have a user here who claimed to have gotten 10 hours SOT (https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2646359&view=findpost&p=57278112)

Hmmm maybe I should make the transition to Chrome as well? Currently using the latest Opera Mobile. Kinda buggy.


Wow! I didn't even realised we have that until you pointed that out. There's even someone with 11 hours SOT! This is getting ridiculous.

Ironically, I didn't even use one of the 10 apps listed.

It's slightly wobbly on mine as well as on the volume buttons. The back cover on my phone creaks when you press on it. Crazy loud if you do it around the speaker grill. Frankly, built quality isn't this phone strong suit which is surprisingly given the price range. Even my old Nokia is built better.


That's awfully cheap. It's still selling at RM1999 at those Samsung or senheng retail stores last I checked.

So far I have only seen the following:

Red : Charging mode
Green: Battery full
Blue (more like light purple): Messages notification

You may be on to something here. Normally when I checked my update firmware option, it said that I already have the latest updates but just now, see this
