[Q] energy saving bug? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
i noticed that if i flag the energy saving option and set a value (for example 30%) for activation an icon appears on the taskbar telling me that the energy saving option is active, even if the battery is full charged, and it remains active.
Moreover when battery go under 30% the phone alerts me that the energy saving configuration will be set, and changes some phone settings like screen brightness and screen timreout values (15 seconds).
when the phone is in charge it alerts me that the energy saving confguration will be turned off BUT
- the icon still remains in the taskbar set as active
- the values set (brightness and screen timeout) remains the ones setted by energy saving and do not go back to the values chosen by me.
Anyone has the same problem?
Thank you

I don't know if that option/setting really does something but I have it on at 70% level. But as soon as I plug my AC charger in it says Power Saving Mode Suspended and turns back on when I unplug the charger. But as I set it to 70% battery level it doesn't bother me until the phone reaches 70% or less.
Regards.

[Q] Battery Drain?

I had my tab fully charged at 6am this morning, and now it is on 69%. I have been browsing the internet for an hour or two. Is this drain normal?
Yes its normal you have set your wifi policy to not to disconnect. If you want your battery not to drain fast go to settings than screen and check mark on Auto adjust screen power. Plus set the brightness to auto. Now change your wifi disconnect policy to disconnect when screen turns off. I had the same problem but after doing these changes the problem is solved. Please hit the thanks meter if I have helped you.

[Q] brightness is stuck

i tried the star hash 0 star hash on dial pad, to bring up the test centre. I clicked on every box including dimmer and sleepmode to test it.
Now since then, every time i lock and unlock my phone, the brightness reverts back to some minumum setting. I can still change brightness when i long press the notification bar but it will always change back to the low setting. And i also cannot get into settings/display/brightness...its greyed out.
I have tried turning my phone on and off again
Help what did i do wrong
If your battery level is below 15% i think, the phone will disable the brightness control in the settings, greyed out, and will run at lowest brightness, until you charge the phone.
You can use the power control widget to adjust the brightness, but as soon as the phone goes to standby and you wake it up it will be back to minimum brightness again.
ok thanks, coincidence in timing when doing the lcd test and low battery..got me in a panic because I didn't have power saving mode enabled.
Yeah, it got me worried when it happened to me, as i was not using power saving as well, it`s a bit of a cheek to force low brightness when the battery is below 15% , the camera also does not work as well, great.

[Q] Wifi wakeup delay with Power Saver

I noticed that with Power Saver turned on, when I woke up my phone, the wifi was off and it took about a full 5 seconds for it to turn on.
That is a long lag time, isn't it?
With Power Saver turned off, the wifi stays on. I just turned it off, so I don't know how this will affect my battery usage.
But my battery usage has been reasonably good so far, I usually go two days between charges. I've got Battery Widget Reborn installed, set up so that it automatically puts phone in airplane mode overnight. I've disabled the bloatware, twitter, etc.
How is wifi acting for other folks, if you have Power Saver turned on? How long does it take for your wifi to come back on?
Thx, Vicki

[Q] How to close balance notification message automatically???

My 3G data packet data is switched on always. This shows a remaining balance notification of my data after a period of time automatically. This notification stays on my screen even after my screen goes to sleep until OK is pressed. This takes up a lot of charge at night.
Is there any way to close it automatically or at least a timeout setting so that it closes on its own ???
