Hey guys,
I got the OTA Update couple days ago. My phone didnt hard reset after installing it. However I am withnissing big battery drains. Even when data is disables.
Any one else having big battery drain since the update?
I‘m still using the same apps and settings.

Nope. I upgraded without a hard reset and my battery is still the same.

This is just a proof-of-concept fix. I dont guarantee any improvement, because i have not much time to test it.
I simply replace battery libs and apps extracted from HKTW.
How to:
1. Download "battfix_cwm.zip" (bellow in Attached Files)
2. Copy it to sdcard or sdcard-ext
3. Reboot into CWM recovery
5. Click "install zip from sdcard"
6. Choose zip from sdcard
7. Pick the "battfix_cwm.zip"
8. Install
9. Reboot
Is this to fix battery performance or the meter jumpin all over the place

meter jumpin...
had the same problem with HKTW though.....
yeah, HKTW has crazy battery jumping, so I don't know if using their battery portions are going to make any difference
Has someone tried this method? Please report back

I just flashed it and my battery level has evened out. It was a steady climb down even in standby but after this flash, its not as steep and seems like this could improve standby battery time. Il keep checking throughout the day and post back results.

Reboot and tell us if the battery percentage changes.
here is a screen shot of what my results are showing after I flashed this zip. You can see how it isn't dropping as drastically after the flash.

Unfortunately I'm on HKTW and battery is not accurate. It jumps back and forth. We need a real fix for this.

Yeah, what he said. If my battery showed 75% before reboot, it would show 99% after reboot.

i agree the files from the leaked 2.3.4 ota are probably key to a fix. unfortunately i m one of those that installed the ota however the battery life been great.

Hey guys
I have a mate whose SGS i9000T will no longer turn on, it is about 5 months old, battery is fine and just died while the screen was off, was not even being used. The last app used was browser. Can't get into Recovery or download modes and the backlight doesn't even register while the AC is plugged in.
Any suggestions would be great or is this a hardware fault? which too me it sounds like
Theirs two possible reasons for this bud....1, custom firmware incorrectly flashed. 2, hardware. I had the same problem and I had to send mine off to Samsung, if you blame the damage on Kies, say after the update it wouldn't turn on they will fix it for free.

Cheers for the reply,
The only things applied were a lag fix that was weeks ago though so i doubt that is the problem, sounds like hardware problem then

No custom kernel or anything? And it just died? Does he tend to drop his phone a lot?

In that case I'd put it down to hardware bud! Are you in the UK? as we have dozens of Samsung service centres, just blame it on Kies if I were you, say after the update it wouldn't turn back on, and they'll fix it for nothing bud

yes the screen flickers at <3%.. i have seen it in 3 notes... so i guess it happens
Usually this happen when the battery isn't original.
Its happened to me with fake battery. No problem with stock one.
I think battery issues could be case. Many nowadays including myself

it could happen with any battery if quality is not good or diminished. I think so at least Check your battery, does it look out of shape?
You could try a friends battery, or an alternative rom could also be another issue.
You can also experiment with the power saving features to turn them of.
Uninstall if any, power saving apps/ screenfilter apps.

Doesn't the warranty on batteries last for 12 months ? Why not get Samsung to replace it if it fails withing that time frame.
Then again, For the price of one, Is it worth all the aggro of sending it to Samsung, Waiting, Waiting some more, Then having it sent back ?
They do go pretty cheap online, And the Anker 5000mah are worth considering (except the size increase)

As they're classed as consumables I believe warranty on batteries is only 6 months, but I think it would be great if we could somehow make samsung aware of how short the battery life is on these, maybe some sort of petition.

The only fix I know for this problem is the eBay solution. Buy a new battery.

You got BBM (Blackberry) installed? That is quite the battery drainer I have noticed on my phone....
3g is the most probable drainer. I can get through a day if I use it a lot.
Install Better Battery Stats, or any other app that can read/detect wakelocks, and find out what is keeping your phone awake.

Better battery stats is my staple, and has a free version on XDA somewhere, but support the developer by buying it if you can!
Wat is the problem with 3g if i May ask.? Is it a known problem with 4.3? Think i'm going to downgrade.
