Check over in the 1.29 thread. There are reports that battery life has improved.
had the very same problems with my previous white HOX. It didnt last me half a day of moderate use, the battery life was horrible. Just listening to radio with the screen turned off and juice defender on, it drained 30% battery in 15 minutes. I returned it yesterday and got myself a new grey HOX. Hopefully this one will work properly. If you experience quite extreme battery problems you really should return it and get a new one like I did because most likely its a faulty device. It is supposed to last longer than that unless you play tegra 3 games all the time.
Did u return in to htc servuce centre??? Ie did u take a doa frm htc service centre??

How long are you able to surf with a fully charged battery and brightness ~50%?

Can you just post your battery stats? On my first 3 days, I had the same problem, I even felt that my phone can't even sustain my 4hours of journey on the day. But now it's standby consumption is awesome, may be several charging cycles helped the battery to settle.
We India's has to struggle with waiting to get the latest updates. So, better you unlock the device. But before that, it was too crazy in battery drain, check with HTC service center and confirm the issue. If it was really a h/w issue return the device.

1.2.9 doesn't improve battery life. Today got 9 hours before battery died, auto brightness screen on time was 3 hours 35 mins, push Gmail, push exchange, some calls, played some games. On wifi all day.
Average battery life nothing spectacular.

Hello all!
I got my GNote2 two days ago everything was fine until i've noticed that my battery level doesn't change for hours and hours. The battery level was 66 when i first look, and after hours in the and it was still 66 and the phone suddenly closed then i realised that battery drained. Does anybody have something like that before? And what is the problem's source? What is solution? What should i do to fix it? I'll add two pic to illuminate you about the exact situation.
Any idea comments?
Something must be defect. Regular unmodified Note 2? Then just send it for service/repair. Or even get it replaced.

Even I changed the stock rom to a custom one there is no difference and I've noticed that too when I pullout my battery and replace it shows the real battery rate but that is all.. Do you think is it battery or phone?

maybe because of your phone system board, better get a replacement phone.
I agree. More probable that it is a bad phone rather than a bad battery.

Guys before jumpong to the conclusion that the phone is bad why not see of some app is causing it
Simply install BetterBatteryStats and check the problem.
Also see if you have your phone rooted?
Have you applied any mod?
If problem still persists and is not solved then simple. Simply flash a newer firmware (ALJ3) from Odin and youre good to go
As i said before i have tried both stock and custom roms and there was no difference. Secondly i have just stock apps and casual normal apps i mean it couldn't be about an app. Actually there's no defect about phone's abilities just battery rate sticks what is was firstly when i replace battery. i wanna try with another battery to figure out is it about the battery or not but i don't have any chance for it.

Try to fully uncharge your phone, after when is dead put on charge. And wait until its full charged. Than reboot to recovery and make a full wipe (if u don't want to just do battery wipe) restart phone. Now check how it works aftery battery calibration.
If it will be same ****, change you phone true warranty. If you can't do that. You need to buy new original battery from samsung.com
Regards.
What would happen if i try my old SGS 1500mah battery on GNote2? I wanna see is it about just battery. Well it is kinda gift from abroad and it seems i have no warranty in my country or i'll have to pay it.

Bad news
As lots of you have seen, the lt28at is really cheap on Amazon and eBay (around $250 unlocked) and I'm thinking about buying one as a replacement for my aging HTC Desire.
What do those of you with one think? Is there another phone in that price range that's better? Are you happy with it? It seems the best phone in that price range.

Im happy with my ion(got it on ebay), good screen, good perfotmance, decent camera. Got a few issues with it though: my camera lens got scratched to the point i couldnt take pics, so i had to do a fix( I used my N95 lens as replacement, works great now), no unlockable bootloader means fewer custom roms. Other than that id say its a good bargain.

Well,Sony Malaysia sell Xperia ion for RM1890 (divide it by 3 to get US price)
Sent from my LT28h using xda premium
before buying the ion, i really expect this to do much more and much better compare to my previous x10. However, i was so disappointed..
if you want a phone that takes good pictures (good clarity and color), don't take ion;
if you want a phone with good wifi, don't take ion;
if you don't want a phone to randomly shut down the apps you are using without noticing, don't take ion
all of the above essential points to me are not presented in x10, so i am very not happy about the ion
i recommend you just wait for ion's jelly bean review. its ics build is definitely one of the worst if not the worst comparing to samsung/htc/LG's except for the look

Odd, my ion takes good pics(even in low light), and has no wifi issues. Only app that closes for no reason is browser when watching heavy sites.

choosing ion
I got my Ion on on ebay for $200.00 it's locked to AT&T so i can't use any custom roms, but i am waiting for the JB update hopefully by end of March and or April. What i did do to make my Ion more snappy is of course root it, install CWM, V6 supercharger to decrease lag, use a deodex L28H rom. I do use my S3 as my primary phone for work, but i just love Sony's look when it comes to the phone design. The Ion is a good not great phone but you just need to "tweak" it a little with mods for now to make run a little better, XDA is a great place to check to do just that!
PS. waiting for the ZL that will be my next Sony Xperia!:good:

Sent from my LT28h using xda app-developers app
I've been using an LT28at initially on AT&T then on T-Mobile for a total of 3 months. I previously used an X10 and a Nexus One.
In the U.S., the largest factor for me to have an SIM unlocked ION was its radio. AWS HSPA and LTE bands are covered. Granted LT28at's bootloader is locked and you can't try custom roms or custom kernels. But if you compare the ION with X10, Nexus One or HTC Desire, processing speed alone should feel a big improvement. Sure I love X10 (I still have one) and I personally think X10's push buttons are still better than ION's touch panel buttons. But ION is pretty good, and you won't be disappointed if you switch from HTC Desire.
It looks like I might get the lt28at. I know the bootloader is locked with little hope of that changing, but is it possible to load custom ROMs with the stock kernel?

Yup, there are some roms that use stock kernel(xzxperience, miuiu, xtxperience), they work nicely on the ion(Im running xzxperience right now).

Okay one last question. Is it possible to get into fastboot on the 28at version? I was reading the bootloader unlock thread and some people were saying that the 28at won't go to fast boot which keeps you from loading cwm. Is that true?

You can load cwm without any problems. I believe it is another mode( dont recall what its called right now) which the 28at cant go to which is necessary for bootloader unlocking( i tried). There is a guide o how to install cwm on the ion. You can also flash the generic 28h or i firmwares on the 28at without any issues.

Not really. Guess well have to wait till sony and at&t allow the bootloader unlock. In any case jellybean is not too far away( even if at&t doesnt release the firmware we can flash h or i jellybean).

I am a heavy user of android playing games and such. Therefore, the battery drops down to 20 in nearly an hour and a half. I end up charging the battery 4-5 times a day. Is this bad? Can I improve battery life in anyway?
No it's not bad. and post questions in the Q/A section from next time please.
To improve battery life don't play so much games.

What on earth are you playing all day? That just sounds excessive.
Xperia S's battery is pretty bad, while playing a game it drops by 1 percent for every minutes played.
Just charge it. That's the point in it

You can charge your phone, no problem. I read somewhere that even Sony said that is fine to charge the phone everyday.

So, no problem dude, just do not use the phone while it's being charged.

Nothing, while you are using phone during charging you are charging your phone. You can do.everything with your phone. But better if you use EP850(1500mA) while using it instead of standard charger (850 or 550mA)

I don't think so, u only solution is to buy extra warranty in case the battery die then the warranty replace u phone.

No need to buy extra warranty just for battery. If. U want to replace the battery u will have to send ur phone to sony service center. They will change it
Hit thanks if i helped u in any way
Will the Sony Service Center replace the battery if the phone is out of warranty?
For money, yes.
