Nope none at all.
Take a look at this other thread I began on the International forum, I hope it can help you somehow.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2734356
is your issue just that its a high % or is it actually causing your battery to die quickly?

Or not? What do you think until now?

Going by the feedback available on this forum, maybe only 2-5% of S2 owners had this problem.
guys, I need more replies, there are many phones which have it, how can it be 5%?
Mine have it but i think its not an issue since most of device with the latest screen development have it
It mean including the ip4. I still running my original firmware,try to browse in here it been told that might be gone when it get upgrade firmware

I would say its about the same if not slightly better. And it charges REALLY fast. I would say about 2 hours or so and your good to go

that is so coool ..... its a double win :laugh:
I just picked one up today at best buy today to scratch the itch that I've had for a while now. Idk if many like the idea but I'll give my initial impressions.
First off pro and con
* the band it comes with. Reason being is the one I got(which surprised me since I thought it would come with the rubber one) is metal and no one could get the links out. I am the definition of a skinny person. I had to buy the tool which arrives tomorrow.
Pros
* I like the screen size and being touch. (I was debating between the pebble also) looks good enough to satisfy.
* the notifications work better than I thought. The vibration when you get a text fb or any sort of notification is nice since I rarely feel it in my pocket.
*can control the play music app through the watch so I don't have to mess with the phone wile driving
Con's
* Facebook extension if you just choose the ppl you want it to show up doesn't seam to stay logged in.
*still skeptical since I was on the fence about getting one. Maybe a few days with it I'll start to enjoy it.
If you have questions I'll try to answer them for you

So this is a smart watch that works with other phones not just Sony. Was just gonna start researching this. Love the galaxy gear but didn't want the note 3. So I got G2. Are there other manufacturers doing this.

Ehhhh I think it's more of a vanilla feel, meaning obviously no TouchWiz stuff. I'm trying to find direct xda links, but here you go for now...

Yes this one work with all androids. I like the fact that I don't have to go to my pocket to check to see about a message. I don't always feel it when it vibrates since I don't like the sound. Its really easy to see it sun light just not in the dark with out turning on the back light

Letting y'all know I'll be returning the smart watch just the few days I've had it the watches battery got better but my phones battery dropped from 5 hours of screen on to 1-1/12 hrs. I'm not around a charger that often. I can't have it die on me that quick. I loved it just thought it would help battery life since I wouldn't be turning the screen on that often

I'm having really bad battery problems with my girlfriends phone.
We were running pa jelly bean and we bought a new battery to try fix the problem as its quite an old phone.
Still had the same problem so tried pa kit kat. That didn't fix it either.
Basically the phone will charge to 100% then go down normally to about 40 or 60% then it will totally die and when you put it back on charge it will he at zero again. So she's really not getting a use out of the phone at all. Am I going to need to flash stock again? Anyone had this problem before?
Thanks
Steven

Flashed stock jb uk. Took all day to download too as samfirmware seem to have changed their servers. And same problem.
It was at about 60% then it froze and I had to take the battery out and put it on charge to get it back on again. And it was 0%!
Could it be a bad charger port or something? Means I would need to take the phone apart to see which revision it is won't I?
Thanks

It looks hardware issue since you have replaced a new battery.
Take it to a repair shop

I've had it apart before. Going to try replacing the charger port board. Should probably fix it right?

Never been wetted by water?
Really looks like hw problem.
It hasn't been wetted. I heard of an issue with i9100's that its appears to be on charge constantly even when unplugged the charger icon stays in the corner. I've had this issue recently but it went away. The people that had this issue replaced the charger port board and this fixed it. Can anyone vouch for this?

Well I've changed the battery with a new one so I've ruled that out
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Given what you've already tried (new battery/etc) & given how quick/easy/cheap (~US$15) it is to replace the USB board/port, I'd be doing that if I were in your situation. KeithRoss39 has a guide in the General section which has all the info you need to get it done.

Cheers mistah. I've already replaced the LCD screen on it so should I had the thing in pieces already. Only pain is I have to check the rev number on the board before I order it I think so it matches. Means I'll need to take the phone apart right down the number put it back together until the board comes then do it all again lol
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
No worries Yep, as long as you match the revision, you should be good.
Title sums it up; considering the strange wifi issue causing massive battery drain on devices as seen in another thread, those of us getting replacements or new devices, should we still take that out of the box update if given the option, or hold off and show results? Did anyone not update and see a difference in wifi?

Interestingly enough, I have much better battery life after using greenify to freeze amazon and pandora. I am running the newest update right now, headed home for my replacement devices due to scratches issue...maybe update doesn't matter? Thoughts?
