I've upgraded my GS2 to 4.0.3 and now the battery life is shocking.
Previously I could charge my phone before bed (100%) and when I wake up, it would be 98%, however, since updating to 4.0.3 it was reduced to 36% after it was fully charged.
Anyone point me in the direction of some help?
Cheers

Once more you have not upgraded you have installed a leaked buggy beta test rom .
jje
be patient as its still in beta. That said, I actually find my battery life slightly better with ICS(westcrip's ressurection). Try doing a factory reset and install again-might do the trick.
You probly got some app running that doesn't support ICS . Do a logcat or monitor your app's .

Ahh cheers, I'm new to all this so probably should have done a bit more homework. OK then, my question now is, how do I revert back to 2.3.5 from 4.0.3?
I've looked and even attempted it but I get lots of force closes. Let me know if you need more information about my phone. And sorry for the stupidity and n00b questions.
Cheers

Tried ICS and had same situation as you. It seems that my problem was K9 with IMAP. The battery drain was horrendous.
I run back to 2.3.6.
Waiting for the final release or next ICS beta.
To go back is easy.
factory reset, wipe cache, dalvik. reinstall 2.3.6. rom, redo reset, wipe
You will be a happier man

Thanks for the info, only I am a little new to this and the above has confused me lol.
So, factory reset (I know how to do)
Wipe Cache - erm
dalVik - again, not sure what this means
Reinstall 2.3.6 - where do I get the correct ROM?
Again, sorry for sounding like an idiot but I really wanna get this sorted and you have to start somewhere!

OK, first off. I read about the 2.3.3 bug in Android. I got the phone 2 days ago and I noticed that it uses quite a lot of battery when sleeping(lost 20% this night, 10h).
Battery use shows Android OS that used ~40%, next is Fancy Widgets(my fault, I know). Mobile data was off, wifi on. Every sync thing is on. It's not rooted or anything like that. From what I understand, using the 2.3.4 firmware should fix this issue. I'm wondering if I just have to use ODIN and flash just the PDA part. Since it's official it shouldn't void the warranty right? And it also shouldn't wipe the device. And please tell me which I have to use, there just so many firmwares here.
Here's my about screen:

You have to follow the instructions with the relevant stock rom and that is usually a full flash via Odin .
Since it's official
Its not official its leaked but it is stock Samsung and Samsung honour the warranty it
And please tell me which I have to use, there just so many firmwares here.
Use the firmware you want KH3 is the latest release .

uhmm, ok? I see that all of the last firmwares have 2.3.4(frankenstein). Does it matter which one I choose? And will it wipe the device? It doesn't say anything about wiping so I guess it won't.

You pick a firmware to suit your region .

what about XXKH3? Mine is from Norway BTW.
PLEASE tell me there is a way to revert my Razr Maxx from ICS back to Jelly Bean!? ICS is terrible, and has data issues, is slower and a whole lot of other problems. Maybe a factory reset back to out of the box state? Will that work, or is it even possible?
Thanks
U mean gingerbread?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Arrggg, yes Gingerbread I mean.
I did a factory reset (System Settings -> Privacy -> Factory data reset) after I first installed ICS, and it has been generally snappy, which gave me a clean ICS system. I would have been hesitant to reset it if I hadn't had to wipe the phone just to get the update to go through....
Edit: Bold clarifications. The new bootloader will only boot ICS, and because the bootloader is locked we're stuck with the new system. (My theory is if we had a signed copy of the old bootloader, we could restore GB with Fastboot, but nobody has it and it can't be produced without Motorola's private key.)
No, I'm pretty sure once you update to ICS, you're stuck with it (Because of the locked bootloader). Doing a factory reset would only wipe all of your data from the ICS OS, not revert the entire phone back to the way it was out of the box (Gingerbread).

He only said that he did a factory reset and the phone has been snappy in response to the OP saying that ICS was slow. He did not say that it reverted you back to Gingerbread.

He posted his latest post as I was typing it. But look at the original post. He asked there if a factory reset would revert it back to Gingerbread. I was answering that question.

It's an amazing contrast when I see the same people who were screaming that their life was horrible because they hadn't gotten their ICS update yet. Now a bunch of them want GB back.

Consumers. Can't please them, ever
Never wanted ICS in the first place, so I wasn't one to ***** about not getting it. It simply told me there was an update for my phone-it did not tell me this was a MAJOR release or a new version. Sure hope Moto puts an option to revert in there next update. I don't know why they wouldn't?? I mean its not gonna hurt anything.
Using the Sunspider browser benchmark tests, I was getting ~1800 on Gingerbread and ~1600 on ICS. Lower scores are better. I couldn't imagine going back.
Lol

but i guess it all bout what u like and who your are.. im all bout improvements so if a Device has changed significantly far as software and physically im cashin out!
Hy guys. I'm having a very strange problem with my phone. Yesterday I kept my phone on silent all day, and when I turned it back to ringing, my lock sound and keyboard sound were missing. They are enabled in settings. I am using CM9 nightly. I even did an update today, and the problem still persists.
I don't know if it is in anyway related, but one of my ringtones is missing (all of a sudden it wasn't there anymore). When I went to settings, the default ringtone was "Unknown", and so was the default notification. Pretty strange. If anybody knows about this, please help . Thank you in advance!
Press the volume button, then the settings icon. Check that none of the volumes are muted.

check for the same issue after wiping cache/dalvik and then fixpermissions in recovery and rebooting the phone
I wiped cache/dalvik, but I didn't fix permissions. I'll try that and come back with an answer. Thank you.
Edit: Fixing the permissions didn't solve the problem .
Why do you flash the ROM again? some time I get mission the same that but after do full wipe, everything OK.
I don't want to flash the rom, do a full wipe, and then start all over again with installing all the apps and all that. I'm still hoping there's a fix without having to do this. But if nothing else works, I guess I'll do that in the end.
Could this problem be rom related?
Yes, which nightly do you use right now?

14.09.2012. This is the one I flashed today, hoping that it would fix the problem. Before this, I was using 06.07.2012.
Not even the camera sound doesn't work anymore, nor the touch sounds if I enable them. It really starts to get annoying.

I did a factory reset, and all worked fine after. But when I restored everything using nandroid backup, the problem reappeared. Now I'm restoring only data (not boot, system, and cache), see how this works out. Thank you very much for your help.

glad that one of my solution worked for you ma8
In clockworkmod recovery, I did not flash a kernel beforehand, and formatted the phone with wipes:
1. cache wipe, 2. factory reset/data wipe, 3. Dalik wipe or something in advanced
Afterwords, choose zip from internal sd card
from there I tried to install Rocket ICS V10 downloaded from xda, it crashed and went into blackscreen
The phone is now completely unresponsive. Power button. USB. Nothing.
______________________________________________________________
What are the options now? To send it back to Rogers and Samsung repair?
What do I tell them? That I was updating through KIES?
The problem is that they have locked the Gingerbread -> Icecream
preventing users from updating and encountering that "MMC-chip" bug that I've been reading about.
That's probably a procedure to prevent that, they've been noticing the amount of bricked Notes popping up left n right
So... back to my question: What can I tell them?
Maybe its bricked because you flashed a international Note (N7000) ROM onto your i717 Note? Do you have an i717 Note?

My Note quit on me last Monday all I did was a restore back to ICS Stock and it just would not come back on -Take it back to Rogers or wherever you got it and tell them that you were upgrading to ICS THEY WILL GIVE YOU ANOTHER ONE there was some bug during the upgrade process using the Kies ( so they say AT&T ) and they will swap it out for a refurb one - what's funny is that I did the same thing cache wipe, factory reset/data wipe, cache wipe restore & my phone did not come back on.
Keep your head up and remember that when you are flashing custom Roms you need to check every thing, read, then then re-check - then re-read EVERYTHING - You will be back up and flashing incorrect roms in no time. "It's hard out there without that Note" Young fella, Good Luck

Yup this worked perfect. I can confirm. Just clearing cache in this app wont do it. You need to clear this apps data and cache .
I am rooted and running 4.3
I tried clearing caches, rebooting, all of that....nothing worked until I set Settings > More > Cellular Networks > Data Roaming to 'On'. Just a heads-up in case anyone else is at their wits' end like I was.
Same problem. Can't fix.
