[Q] cm7 cell standby

can anyone tell how to get my cell standby down on cm7 right now its at 45% and phone idle at 39%.. is this too high?
Are you talking about the battery usage read out? If so, by using the phone will get the 'stand by' % down.
[via XDA app]
Yea I am and thanks
On this, are readouts on CM7 not as detailed as on sense UI?
I always only seem to have Display, Standby, and Android OS showing, where as rooted stock sense shows about 10 items.
No there not as sensitive

At least it isn't as bad as the Galaxy S which seem to just throw everything under "Display." LOL

Love my epic, hate my sprint.

So I can't bare to be without my Epic every waking second of the day. sue me. My problem is I'm moving out of the country and am keeping my phone. I want to basically use it as a wifi enabled android powered mp3 player. Problem is I'm worried it will constantly be searching for a signal. I've removed my msid and phone number from my ##msl# dialer code, but the phone still searches for a signal killing the battery life (I've seen the difference in the battery menu between no signal and airplane mode). I would leave it in airplane mode and be happy except that you don't get bluetooth while in airplane mode. is there a way I can just get the cell radio out of the os since I'm not going to need it anymore, and still keep my bluetooth, wifi, and gps functionality?
Thx in advance for any advice

Did you check out the ##3282# menu? Might be something useful in there

You can disable just the cellular radio using Tasker... this will still allow you to use wifi, bluetooth, gps, etc...
##debug# is an interesting dialer.code as well

I don't have Tasker anymore but I believe you just create a widget with the action of Phone > Radio > Off or something to that effect.
Then when you click the widget it will simply put an X over the signal bars instead of that annoying airplane, still allowing you to use all the secondary radios.

Can I ask a question here? I live in Phoenix, Arizona and I don't get any 4G. Does anybody else have this problem? Like, come on Sprint. I'm in the capitol of the Grand Canyon State.

Wierd problem with the gps

Hi
i'm having a weird problem with my gps.
I get up to 10 satellites in view but the gps keeps losing the connection.
The phone just came yesterday from Samsung with a new board. Also my galaxy never got so many satellites in view.
Any idea?
Thanks.

This is not a 'weird' problem anymore

Why?
The gps before didn't got more than 1 sat in view now i get about 10 so Samsung did improve something by replacing the main board.
Is there any other config or rom to improve GPS performance?

3g/4g signal strength. And gps lock

How's everyone's signal strength and gps lock?
I know the typical complaint of Samsung is the radios. Can everyone who has a us version share the experience regarding sign strength? Thanks

My Telus model has a 2 second GPS lock in my house. Reception is good too. WiFi signal is similar to my computer's. No complaints here.

Help with wifi issue

I constantly use my tab with wifi at home and I have noticed that when my tab comes off standby (after unlocking screen) it connects to wifi, it never used to to happen. Running stock ICS, anyone started experiencing this? I think this is also why my tab runs hot and battery drains.

I think I may have solved my issue, under advance wifi settings I selected to "Always" have wifi on during sleep. My battery is not draining as much as before.
