[Q] ; Advise for buy a Notes.

Hello
I am currently using a galaxy s and a xperia pro.. Now I am thinking about selling these and buy a galaxy notes instead.
Is it a good idea? Is Notes a stable phone and not full with bugs?
I am hoping it would be an upgrade for me or is the difference not so big?
Regards

I would say that it will probably be a huge difference (pun intended) if you decide to get the Note. I would recommend that you go to a store with a live demo unit and try the size out, it is not for everyone. But I would say the Note is a stable phone.

I gave my SGS up for the note, and i love it..

from my experience, its an amazing phone. best one i ever had so far.
people say its huge and how can I carry it - but frankly it no problem at all. in the begining i was using the bluetooth but not any more.
the only thing i am not happy about is battery life - for now i keep the 3g/wirelss turned off to prolong the battery life. I havent had time to try different roms yet but I am hoping to get on one of the custom rom soon and believe this will improve the bat life also.
oh by the way the stock rom is very stable. i havent had any issue so far with anything.

pretty much OT here, but: You should think about getting a custom ROM. I´m on Rocket V.22 and my phone lasts more than 2 days with wifi ON and moderate usage. Kind of a miracle^^

yeah am in middle of rocket or darky; have to try them both to decided which 1 to stick to. have you tried darky ? lots of good reviews abt it too.
if the battery last for 2 days on moderate use then it sure is miracle .
i will try to flash the rom this Friday and see how it goes.

I lost my SGS and got the Notes. You will soon get used to the big screen and everything else seems so small after that. I was also having stable CM9 from teamhacksung on SGS. That's the only two draw back I can think of.

No haven´t tested darky yet, I´m just too happy with Rocket But anyway, you have to load & reload the Note a few times until it gets its full battery potential...and this it to do after every flashing session

[Q] Good battery ROM

Hello people,
first of all I want to say that I know there are more questions like this one, but I couldn't find an up-to date one.
I'd prefer an ICS or later rom since.. well the GB roms are quite outdated, but if you know a rom which offers a great battery life don't hesitate to tell about it.
I'm corrently using CM10 unofficial from Pengus77:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2058231
Here is a screenshot of my current battery life with light use (no data, little wifi for whatsapp and sometimes checking my timetable screenshot) :

Please let me know if you know a very battery-friendly rom.
Edit:
And it's not like I have an ancient battery or something ( +- half a year old).

Hello!
I'm using Paranoid Android and I like it a lot. Battery life is really great. I'm using my phone from morning till the night and almost always battery last long enough. I'm using it for surfing, listening music, phone calls, messages so I think that this is really nice rom.

AW: [Q] Good battery ROM
Got to confirm that! Using PA with Kowalski kernel 113, OC @ 1,3 GHz some small UV and a great app as recommended by pengus and tonyp which is greenify! Take a look at it

Hope you find what you are looking for.

Wise choice.
Note: Don't judge the battery too fast. Wait till it have done a few cycle charges (meaning: plug charger in at a low battery percentage, keep it charching till its 100% - repeat few times.).

Yes, I will (although a lot of people say you should only charge to 80/90% to not overcharge your battery)
What governor are you all using btw? just normal interactive?
Update: installed the rom, all my apps, filled in my preferences/personal customisation etc. and I lost about 25%
so everything seems to go quite well with this rom.
Just one question:
what is a good alternate theme instead of the xperia one?

Default governor.
I'm using adw

Well, here are the results of the PA rom:
As you can see the battery life is MUUUCH better. This is at almost the same usage as seen on the other screenshot so It's a fair comparison.
Thank you for informing me about this great rom and as a token of my esteem I'll give you all a :good:.

Massive Battery Drain on Reboot

Recently, I've been having massive battery drain on reboots. Is this a calibration issue? I'm currently on the 4/15 build of CM10, but was previously on Slimbean 4.1 2/25 build. It was happeneing on that build as well. It just dropped from 55% to 12% after the reboot...Also, my battery is slightly bloated, it can't really be seen visually, but you can feel it. Are these two correlated? Should I get a new battery?

Your battery is fried, time for a new one, whenever you have swelling, its the number one sign that your battery is dead. Soon you won't be able to use your phone without it being connected to a charger.

I too have had this issue with the SlimBean, I believe it to be from the "Fast USB Charge" function.
Since it has to be replaced anyways, any suggestions for Extended Batteries?

I got this one and its pretty nice:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B009PGTUFQ
It's 2050mah so not too much more than stock but still good. I bought it because it doesn't require a special battery cover. Lasts me all day with decent (sometimes excessive) use. And it looks cool in red haha.

Already bought another stock battery, but if I had known about this, maybe would have bought this instead. Oh well, the new battery is working much better than my old already.

Thanks for the info, I've seen that one, but I think that I'm going to go with this one: EZO Power since I'm never very far from a charger. (battery troubles will cause you to carry one or keep them everywhere. LOL)

i have 3 at home, one in the car and 2 at work

Ive just started running AOIP, and I have experienced the massive drain on reboot. so the consensus is its a battery issue?

When ever you have battery issues like that it is you battery. Soon you will notice random reboot accompanied by massive battery drain. Then you will have to have your phone plugged in just to use it, you will also start to notice swelling. I recommend you get another before it gets this bad. Trust me having to have your phone plugged in 24/7 is not fun

I am familiar with the battery swell, my previous samsung flip phone (RIP) had some massive battery swell. I was scared it was going to explode in my face.:good:

[Q] Help me find the right ROM for me please?

I'm not a noob to flashing, but I don't regularly visit this forum, I'm not so up-to-date with regards to development on LG Optimus 4x HD. I bought it a few months ago, and I flashed to it V20A stock, so I think that I unlocked the bootloader, not sure. Do you need to unlock the bootloader to flash v20A?
Anyway, lately, I'm experiencing some battery drain due to the baseband_xmm something wakelock, and my phone just lasts 14 hours, under medium usage, which is not really to my satisfaction. It's also not as snappy as it once was.
I tried factory wipes, but it doesn't work. I get an error on the boot screen. So I decided I should just flash a new Rom altogether. Can somoene please guide me on what would be the ideal Rom for me? I would like one which is completely free of bugs, and stable as much as possible, which offers satisfying battery life, and preferably has fixed the baseband_xmm wakelock, and is relatively bloat-free. I don't care if its LG stock,, or not, as long as everything works. Although I would like to be able to keep QuickMemo, and I like the stock Camera, but I don't know if these can be ported to non-stock Roms.
What can you recommend please ? Also some instructions and/or links to instructions would be appreciated.

So my question's out of place, but your post isn't?
All I wanted to know is what most people recommend in terms of stability and battery life. You don't need to post that. And yeah I did search, but there's just so many roms, which seem to be updated constantly, and I have no idea where to start, and I can't go around flashing rom one after the other testing battery life and stability, because I need my phone and use it often. If I had a spare phone, then I could flash roms non-stop to my LG while using my spare phone as a daily driver.
Any recommendations are appreciated .

See what you like best. What I like best may not be what you like best. Sorry, but you're going to have to flash a bunch of them just like everyone else. Read the forum rules.

Not everyone gets the same reaults , say I'm using PAC with my own settings , you might think its slow and laggy while i don't.

[Q] feel like returning after battery life ?

Anyone felt like returning this phones after a week cause of battery life?
Im not cause its not that bad and maybe a custom ROM may be able to work on that just looking for other people's experience and what they think thanks!

It's useable with a few temp.. tweaks .
The bottom line is this all occurs with lollipop in general S5 was great on kitkat ...until 5.0
It's not the phone it's features and O.S
People are disabling Volte and WiFi calling it helps a lot
I wouldn't return it over battery life yet the camera is way to good
Give it time We get roms soon and mods it's I take back everything +I said
Samsung needs to take back every s6 and Rethink there whole O.S
For a 750$ flag ship release its so buggy it's hopeless .
Camera is only worthwhile feature

Do one factory reset and set up phone again and disable VOLTE FOR NOW under Phone /More .
Cycle the battery meaning charge filly and let it fully drain as far as you can before recharging again .Another words don't fully charge it when it hits 40%
This is true the battery's learn a drain span
I'f you recharge anything above 10% it isn't gonna learn it's max capacity Takes like a week.
The main fix is Volte disable and WiFi calling
Sent from my SM-G920T using XDA Free mobile app

i turned off volte i dont really see the need for it i mean its a phone call why do you need such high speeds lol my phone is at 2 percent waiting for it to die lol thanks

If it wasn't for the rapid quick charge I probably would have
returned it but the fact that I can top off in a half an hour it's really not a problem getting through the day.

I think it has something to do that the phone is not going to deep sleep, i rooted mine and flashed a custom kernel, now it does deep sleep and battery is ok now

While battery life isn't as good as some phones I've used recently I still got 5hrs SOT yesterday. Not bad at all.

That is pretty good for this phone ....
Has anyone tried going into Developer Options }Limit Back
Ground Processes to 4 ?
I wonder if this barely slows the Phone for most things but might give an additional ( wild guess 10% to 25%) Battery Life.
I don't have one but if this works....be easier for me to decide.
I may put this idea in a separate Thread.

Yea I can't complain about battery life. The screen is so ridiculous I end up using the phone for no reason, so my usage at least for now since it's new, isn't my normal usage.
