TheNeighbor, 21 Jan 2013I keep hearing this 4.1.2 upgrade problem of more power bei... moreOn 4.1.1 the battery used to drain 1-2% per hour when not being used. Now it is more like 3-4%.

I can still get through a day on a single charge but no longer than that. I would say the battery life is 60-70% of what it was.

The drain is most noticeable when not using it. The more people that kick up a stink the more likely it is that Samsung will fix it!

DON'T INSTALL 4.1.2 IF YOU WANT GREAT BATTERY LIFE.

The other problem is that i have to disable wifi power saving in service mode every time i reboot my phone or i cant connect to wifi.

    When i turn my mobile Data it does not come ON. Only way to make it work is to restart the phone. This happens at time. Is there a way to make it work without restart.

          AnonD-103232, 20 Jan 2013Can any one tell me please as to which handset should i go ... moreDear... I am also fan of HTC mobiles due to sense UI...I searched a lot during this month regarding HTC+ VS Note 2...I played with both also.......Believe me Note 2 is fa far better than X+.....Why ? my points are under....

          2gb RAM VS 1 gb RAM ----Hell of difference
          Removeable Battery VS Non-removeable....again hell of difference
          3100mah VS 1800mah.......hell of difference
          Stylus Functionality VS not Stylus....hell of differnce
          oh man this list is long... simple is that..if you can manage size (and its has worth) then you will do a huge mistake to regret Note 2...Its totaly a different device...you can not imagine that how powefull is this device...HTC+ is ordinary type of phone like all other phones of Quad core from different manufacturers...but many people including me love the Htc sense..For this purpose i already have htc sensation XL....

            I've convinced 6 people to get the first Note than an iPhone as they saw the potential of doing more. Now, I managed to start convincing people to sell off their iPhone 5 to get the Note II. The iP5 is surprisingly very expensive at $750 to $1000 for something that is a mid-functioning restricted unit at only 16GB capacity.

            The iPhone 5 just looks nice. I like the thin profile. But that's about everything I can compliment about it.

                    Typical use my Note 2 is at about 30 deg C. Using heaps of 3G its about 33-35 and heavy gaming for an hour or so it might get up to 37-38.

                    Also the ambient temperature will affect this... If its snowing your device will be cooler. If you live in the desert and are using it in the sun it will be a lot hotter.

                          Normally there is no problem upgrading, you wont lose anything.

                            Rooting the Galaxy Note II gives you access to control the kernel and cpu with tools like One Power Guard and Titanium Backup to backup even the data of your apps. One Power Guard helped took some of the heat off during processes by lowering the cpu frequency. This especially helps during torrent downloading. Although you need to put it up the cpu frequency for games and the S Note for some lag free experience.
