I don't know if this is possible but thought it would be cool if it could be done.
Would it be possible to have the LEDs for the camera to flash when the phone rings? I know the phone would have to be face down but mine is actually quite a bit. Thanks in advance for anyone willing to look into this and see if its even possible.

that would be cool but such a battery hog
I don't think it would use very much battery with it being an LED. I could be wrong though.

That would be good for the disabled (deaf).
Yea. I didn't even think about that. I was mainly thinking for at night when my kids are sleeping and my phone is turned down real low.

There is no need to calibrate the battery. When the phone reaches 99% charge capacity, it will take a while for it to achieve 100%. Once it achieves 100%, it will let the battery drop back down to 95% then it will begin charging back to 100%. It is a repeated process. It will keep doing this until the phone is removed from the charger.

That is interesting.. Are you using the stock battery/charger? Are you connected through an outlet or usb port?

Once you disconnect, your battery drops from 90 to 70 in a matter of minutes?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
If that is the case, I would say bad battery. BUT I do remember reading that there were some Evo 3D's that suffered from the same problem, and they were also getting extremely hot. If that is the case, I suggest exchanging.
Was your phone normal before?

It was normal as no issues that I've noticed but this was the first time I charged the phone being off also and I doubt an app wouldn't cause this specially when the phone is off so therefore nothing running

Let the phone die down to 15%, then charge it. If it drops significantly again, then we may have a problem. It could be a bad battery or an app you must have downloaded.

A smart phone is like a pocket sized computer. There can be malicious apps that can harm the phone. But if that isn't the case, I suggest hard resetting. If that still doesn't work, replace.
Edit: Try my other solutions first.

I personally had strange battery problems the first week I had the phone, and after that my battery life became quite good (I did the battery calibration technique from the og evo and it helped a lot also).
So if you're saying it's strange after a couple days I'd say give it a chance to go through a couple more charge cycles. I'd bet the issues will sort themselves out.

I have a new sgs2 and on the first day of using i noticed that it got very hot, is this a common thing and is there anything i can do to prevent it?
Was you using it while it was cahrging cus mine gets hot as well if i do that. Been fine since i got it months ago tho
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Charging makes it pretty hot.. Make sure it doesnt have a case as that will make the phone hotter.
Also kill unused apps once in a while as the more resources you use the hotter the phone will get especially when watching videos or playing games.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
it got very hot while i was just surfing the net, won't watch movies or play games on it. It was too hot i counldnt hold it any longer, wasnt charging it either.
Might be faulty. Try taking the batt out and put it back in, if still the same take it back to the place you got it and replace

So I've been struggling with battery life on this rezound since I purchased it. It does get hot every now and then sometimes for no reason. I was waiting for aosp to come along to determine if it was just sense or the phone itself but since its not fully operational and makes my rezound hot as hell, I've stuck with sense roms for my day to day. The following screen shots are venom Rom desensed by me, including no weather, or facebook. The only thing syncing manually is gmail. That's it. No gaming here either. Downloaded a 7mb song, listened to mp3s with headphones and cruised the web a bunch.

That's about what I had using viperrez, although it seems your phone is discharging quickly when screen is off. I'd recommend under clocking when screen off to about 500mhz that works for me. Doesn't help with the screen on time though

1.) sense 4 is a MAJOR battery hog. id advise not to use ut unless your showing off
2.) i usually get 2hrs screen on, so id say NOT defective
3.) if you want like an extra 30-60 mins, try aosp. its fast and good on battery
hope this helps
Thanks for the replies guys I appreciate it. I did forget to mention something though... This is with the extended battery I know 2 hours would be about right on standard but I would think the extended should yield more no?

Most likely yes, isn't the extended battery 1.5x? Either way, battery consumption is hard to perfect. Like I said maybe underclock or find a battery saving build. Prop script to try I know system tuner pro has one built in.

When I look to see my battery usage it doesn't tell me how longs left on the battery. It tells me how long my phones (battery) has been on? I don't get it?
Look at my photo please
EDIT : in this picture my phone was charged and took of charge around 12am and left with the screen locked so I'm getting good standby usage just wondering why it's not telling me how longs left

That's normal. At least that's what happens on my Xperia P.
It does not show you how much is left. Only tells you on how much time it has been on the battery.
Also, i don't think it would make much sense the other way around. Because que time left in the battery always depends on the use of the phone.
EDIT: There are some apps that tell you how much time you've got left, depending on the use you're giving

Have you tried wiping battery stats ?
when I first got my galaxy s4 my battery was amazing! But now, I'm running clean rom which is usually a good rom for battery life. I can't even get my phone to charge without the screen being completely off. If I'm using it all no matter what it goes down. Anybody know what's going on

There are a lot of things to do/explain
One being Location...if you started Google Now kiss your battery goodbye, it sucks it dry. I've always tried to minimize sound and display settings, along with apps that sync constantly.
Please include what else you've done, it's mostly user error installing apps like Facebook
