What's so good about villainrom anyway?
I used it when I had my first Galaxy S2 few months back. Didn't find anything special about it.
Now that I have a Galaxy S2 again, I've been using MIUI Rom (for the first two weeks) and am using CheckROM Revolution now.
MIUI is just amazingly beautiful and much more elegent.
CheckROM Revolution is much more customizable with the build-in Kitchen.
So, could someone enlighten what's so great about the VillainROM?(Serious question)

^how's ur batt stat with MIUI rom?
I'm running villain 3.0 with ninphetamine 2.1.3 and the thing i've been noticing is standby battery usage is utterly amazing.
I got push email, one email checking every 15 mins, line, shazam, whatsapp, fb, words with friends updating constantly
...and on standby i can last 60+ hours (extrapolated estimate of course)...
edit: oh yea..no battery mods either..screen at approx 25% brightness

I say this because even on days where I use my phone lightly, at the end of the day I'm still under 80%, and thats with my apps only refreshing every 1-2 hours, email poll every 2 hours, a few phone calls/whatsapp, some light browsing etc as well as being undervolted and screen down to almost the lowest setting

When I was using MIUI, I was getting over 24hrs give or take 5 with average use. I've posted screen shots already earlier. Keep in mind, this is with full brightness and no power saver modes enabled.
Shazam updates?

Heh, thanks guys for the info on the villainROM.
I'm not so much about battery life anymore as long as it last me a full day of usage.
BTW, I've read great review on the Anker Batteries on xda and bought a set on eBay.
Such a great deal for what you'll be getting.
2x1900mAh batteries
1xbattery charger (You can even charge the phone at the same time)
All for $13.99+$4.00 shipping

My S2 LTE just shipped. Debating if I should keep it, I don't want to pay any rediculous LTE monthly pricing. Posted via RS Mobile |

I'm still waiting for mine but this thread has people reporting their experience and it seems like they get few hours more than the OEM battery which is good enough for me. Really like my anker 1900mah batteries - xda-developers
BTW, a RS member pm'ed about the eBay link I bought mine from and it seems like the Seller made new listing and raised the price to $19.99+$4.00 shipping now.
Guess it was getting pretty popular and the old listing showed 108 sold before the seller closed it.

Called Rogers. It is possible to use it with 4g data but what's the point if the phone is capable of LTE speeds? They said 2 gb's of LTE data was $35 and 10gb's was $50. Posted via RS Mobile |
