Hi everyone, I've been using again the leather pouch that came with my Galaxy since I installed i7500XXIK4 and so far seems not to waking up the phone when asleep (as it used before), I'm using SpareParts to monitor the device, and it's been reporting not anomalies on the battery or the running time spent without sleeping, IMHO it seems this issue got fixed. What do you think? Peace JT
I think it did. As I've described in some other thread, if you wait for the screen to dim and half-press the camera button, it will not light up. On II5 it did. Therefore, the phone does not register half-press unless the Camera (or other app using the camera) is running. I've got used to not using the pouch, though ) May be will give it a second chance.
I wanted to get rid of the pouch as I couldn't use it, but decided to give it one more try. Glad I'm not the only though
K4 looks like great update. Finally!! Camera button issue fixed, general speed of system improved and battery seems to be better. Overall after what 6 months galaxy looks like phone it should have been from start. Now we only need for semi to spill it guts and plain tell us if we can expect 2.0....
I'm not quit sure if the pouch doesn't keep the Galaxy awake even though the camera button can't be used anymore to keep the display from dimming. I was hoping the issue has been fixed so I kept the phone in the pouch overnight. It went from 69% to 8%... I'll test this some more, might have been just a bad night. Besides it's pretty cold in the Netherlands where I live these days. Edit: might indeed have been just a bad night for I've tried it a couple of times now and it seems that the battery drains less than with I5 or H8. Can someone else confirm this?
So it does seem to have been fixed in K4. I kept the phone in the pouch most of the time for the last two weeks and the battery does not seem te perform worse than without the pouch. Which is good news imho!
It seems so. You now can't use the camera button in pinball unless you push it all the way in. You used to be able to press it halfway to use the flippers.
