Follow the steps here:

1.
Set Up ADB/USB Drivers
2.
Download this to computer: BH_Man's Batterystats.bin.

3. Open Command Prompt and type the following code:

cd\
cd androidsdk\tools
adb devices (make sure it shows SGH T-939 device)
adb push ( location of batterstats.bin e.i.: c:\batterystats.bin) /data/system
exit

***Phone should be fully charged preferably off before you open command prompt and pushing the file.

Any questions search first but this should get you what you need. There should be any need to re-boot, but it doesn't hurt.

on code lines 3 and 4 of step 3 do i write all that you have written?

 

[jdmfa5]

on line 3 just check to see if it shows SGH t-939 device after you press enter

on line 4 you'll type adb push C:\ or where ever the file is located followed by /data/system

also after each line of code press enter

cool. well as soon as i finish charging my phone ill give it a go and if im not to dumb to figure it out, well then you sir have won $20

 

[jdmfa5]

cool, sounds good. it's pretty easy, however if you have issues installing the drivers or anything USB related uninstall the driver or try another USB port. It might get frustrating, but keep trying and don't give up it will be rewarding in the end. How do you plan on giving me the $20?

 

[laker666]

put in quotation marks for other locations

 

[laker666]

put in quotation marks for other locations

like i said complete noob....not sure what that means

 

[drawoh]

"C:\Users\asdfa\Desktop\file name" for example. i think that works, i usually just move the file in C:\ cause im too lazy to type in all that stuff haha

 

[shawnpeck]

Is the command prompt on a computer with the phone plugged in? If so, does it need to be in debugging mode? Or is this done using Superuser on the phone itself?

Cool.

Easiest way, download or move the batterystats.bin to the C:\ Drive and type the following

adb push C:\batterystats.bin /data/system

make sure the batterystats.bin is spelled and formated the same way the file name is (so if the file in the C:\ drive is spelled BatteryStats.bin then when you type the code you have to use C:\BatteryStats.bin or else you'll come up with an error.
Paypal address is dpcc01_paypal@sbcglobal.net.

How do I know if it worked? This is all I got after doing it:

C:\androidsdk\tools>
C:\androidsdk\tools>adb push c:\batterystats.bin /data/system
221 KB/s (0 bytes in 21244.000s)

C:\androidsdk\tools>

C:\androidsdk\tools>

There's really not a confirmation, just test it. Try not to use the phone for the next two days and if you need to charge the phone by the end of the second day you're good and it works. I'm averaging 45 hrs with light to moderate use (running beautiful widgets, wireless network on, gps off, bluetooth on, 10-15 sms/mms, exchange mail set to push, fb widget) and 24 hrs with the aforementioned along with about 2-3 hrs of voice.

However your mileage may vary.

cool thanks man

EDIT: Actually, I was browsing the phone's files and found batterystats.bin in the /data/system folder. Does that mean it was ADDED or did it REPLACE a file with the same name?
