- The battery drains rapidly in 2-3 hours.
- I plug it on to a charger it doesn't charge up
- the mediaserver process comes up in the 'battery usage' with 60% usage
Now, I switch off the phone. Boot it up. Charge the phone to 100%. Its all perfect and no heating up too. After 7 hours of usage, no mediaserver process in 'battery usage'.
I went into the gallery once. Browsed some photos. And Closed it.
Now it all started again. I've tried this 3 times now. |
This is an Eris group, but did you look at what I mentioned before - that others had noticed this problem with the Gallery when they had corrupted image files on their SD card?
You could try a couple of things that I can think of, off the top of my head, to rule this out:
- backup and then delete all image files from your SD. Does this still happen after, say, you take a photo with the camera?
- are you syncing with Picasa? (From home, settings->accounts and sync, check your Google account, and uncheck Picasa syncing.) If you turn that off, does that help the problem?
Otherwise, you may want to post the same question on the Galaxy S2 forums here:
