Why do you guys underclock and undervolt? I find the battery life on this phone pretty good.

AGREED! I can post over a dozen screen captures of 1.5 day battery use on my phone on various roms including stock rom.

Not easily. Requires changing code.

For those that have handled the white version - how are the touch "buttons" in contrast with the white face? Is it really hard to see?

Debating between white or black version on Bell for my HUP.

I'm pretty sure all I needed to undervolt was the ninphetamine kernel, not a different rom

He means relabeling the drive itself. IE. in Windows it's C: D: E:

On Linux it's like External1/sdcard/usb/emmc etc. Changing the labeling would require editing the mount scripts when the device starts up.

I think you missed the point...I was saying I didn't mess with any power settings to get a fantastic battery life. I've used several different roms and have had great results each time. lol has nothing to do with what you need/don't need to undervolt.

Ohhhh, for windows, you just right click on My Computer, click on manage...open up your storage section on the left side and then click on the volume you want to change and right click on that...chose the option "Change drive letter and paths."

Yup. Except Linux which Android is based off of is not as easy haha. I'm sure he could figure it out using root explorer but I don't recall which file you need to edit.

I don't think anyone's used it since it was basically just released. However a quick youtube search will answer and show you:

What's your usage like?

insomniac · 10-13-2011, 04:09 PM

i just flashed the cm7 rom to my sgs2 via clockwork.
its more than 15 minutes now and its still on the sgs2 bootup screen

Well. Also depends on how much actual usage he has on the phone. Mine is currently around the same but I haven't used it much:

parm104 · 10-13-2011, 06:18 PM

I just popped on an MIUI rom on this phone...I love it. It's amazing...Quick and it's so refined. The animations are amazing on it. You have to try it out see what I'm talking about.

This is the theme I am using right now..SO interactive...it looks amazing.

I've modded it a little, kept the lock screen, changed some of the icons on it and retained my original fonts.

Also, this is basically the kind of results I get every day:

!MiKrofT · 10-13-2011, 06:52 PM

Looks kinda overkill lol. But each to his own

Yeah if I leave push exchange email off I'll get more than a day runtime.

Selanne_200 · 10-14-2011, 09:56 AM

I have the white and the keys are actually quite visible compared to the body color. The buttons are much more brightly lit than the rest

I see you got the phone and made the jump to Bell! Thanks for the feedback, going to pick mine up later today/next week.
