How can they not have a fix for this yet? Its really really fucking poor. On the plus side it's forcing me into rooting, which I've intended to do for a while but never got around to.
Well, I've tried rooting for a day and still the exact same problems, even with a different Kernel that is eating my battery alive, it's showing very high percentages of battery drain. That was with CM9 and their kernel and I also tried the Siyah kernel as well.
I've now tried 2 official 2.3.5 Samsung ROMS, which gave me freezes, screen keeping awake and other issues and I'm on my 2nd 4.0.3 official Samsung ROM which again, is giving me problems and vast battery drains. I haven't even installed any apps other than the ones packaged on the ROMs and it's still draining so it's nothing to do with apps running in the background.
it's never connected to Kies since the original update I did through Kies yet connects everytime to Odin. I've a feeling mine might be a hardware problem and I think it may concern the micro USB port because no matter what I've tried, I can't fix the battery drain issue.
I've order a micro USB jig to reset the binary count and then it's going back into it's box and I'm going into a T Mobile shop and taking it back, they won't fob me off with their usual smartphones eat batterys shit anymore, it's actually unusable at the moment and I certainly can't rely on it. Currently, I've just took it off full charge 20 mins ago and it's been sat here with screen off, untouched and it's already down to 95% with Android OS at 91%.
Was really looking forward to this phone but to say it's put me off it forever is an understatement, I knew I should have just got an HTC One S and I know I'm just one of the unlucky one.
