    Help Abnormal Battery drop - mobile network signal??

    I've been trying to figure out what's going on with my battery life overnight. Battery life is good through the day, drops much faster overnight. I've factory reset probably half a dozen times, slowly added apps back, etc. At this point the only thing I can point to is the mobile network...

    Help Battery draining faster - any ideas?

    I've had my N2 for a few weeks now, and I've noticed recently that my battery performance seems poorer than it was at first. I assume I've downloaded an app that's hitting the battery, but I'm not smart enough to read these battery reports to understand what it might be. These are from a...

    Battery doesn't sit flush

    Just opened my new N2 and I'm finding that the bottom of the battery doesn't sit flush into the battery pocket - the bottom is raised a bit (picture below). The bottom will sit flush if I set the bottom of the batter in first, so there's nothing on the battery or the phone causing a bump. I...

    Maybe dumb question - AT&T or unlocked version?

    I have AT&T service, but am not due for upgrade until October. So I'm planning on buying off-contract from Amazon now. I plan on using the N2 on my AT&T service, assuming I can "port" (I know it's not really porting) my current cell# to the N2. I assumed I should be buying the AT&T version...

    Downside to buying from Amazon?

    Thinking about getting an N2 off contract (for AT&T). The cheapest I'm finding is $650 either directly from AT&T or from Amazon. I can save $50 in sales tax buying from Amazon, and from what I see Amazon has a better return policy (30 days, can't find mention of a restocking fee vs AT&t's 14...

    Need help/support convincing myself to buy

    I'm thinking about getting a Note2, but need some support/confirmation that I'm doing the right thing. My story/details are a little rambling... Currently on an S2, 2.3.4 (AT&T) unrooted - haven't done the AT&T upgrades because they mostly screw something up along the way, and 2.3.4 is rock...

    Few questions before rooting

    I think I'm ready to root, but have a few questions before I do. Background I've had my S2 (i777) since March - bought it with 2.3.4, and am still there today. I bought my wife's S2 in April with 2.3.6, had terrible battery experience, and rolled her S2 back to 2.3.4 via the instructions on...

    Anyone else having trouble with Gmail last couple days?

    Both my and my wife's all of a sudden stopped auto-checking/syncing email yesterday (8/24) - we have to manually refresh to sync mail. Neither of us have updated or changed any settings, and we're both hitting both wifi at home and att outside. Any ideas???

    Just want to tether

    I've had a couple S2s since the spring. The first came with 2.3.4 and hasn't been touched (not rooted). My wife's came with 2.3.6, experienced the terrible battery life issue with WiFi - so I rolled it back to 2.3.4 (I think I followed the instructions on galaxys2root). So they've both been...

    Charger cord is short

    Got my 7 this weekend and have found it kind of unusable when it's charging because the cord is so short. My couch is pretty close to an outlet (often will charge the thrive or phone while charging), but not with the 7 cord. I don't know that I'm power/energy smart enough to know amps and...

    Haptic??

    Picked up a 16GB from my local Walmart yesterday and liking it so far (I also have a 10" Thrive). Anyway, I don't seem to be able to get the haptic feedback while typing. I've downloaded a couple different keyboards that have a setting for vibrate, but that setting doesn't give me the same...

    ICS - video recording pause enabled?

    Probably a long shot, but before upgrading from 2.3.4 I'd check to see if the ability to pause video recording was added back in. I fear it's not. Thanks

    Help Video editing trouble - 23 fps

    I've had my S2 for a few months now but just dumped some videos onto a desktop to edit (trim, combine with others, etc) and have discovered my normal video editing tools (MPEG Streamclip, Sony Vegas Pro 10) don't like the videos - the videos are read as a solid white image (no picture) - with...

    Help Can I rollback to 2.3.4 from 2.3.6?

    I have 2 S2s. I got mine in March from BB with 2.3.4 installed. I had read about the 2.3.6 wifi battery issue and have stayed on 2.3.4 and experience fine battery life. I upgraded my wife's Captivate to an S2 a few weeks ago and she had been occasionally complaining about battery life. I...

    Double check me before I upgrade

    A little background... My wife and I have had Captivates since Aug 2010, never rooted, recently upgraded to 2.3.5. Since the upgrade we're getting a LOT of force close messages. I read somewhere about doing a factory reset to fix, but it's not bothering me that much to go through that...
