    How is the battery life on the skyrocket?

    Outside of using CPU Spy to find the culprit that would prevent the phone from going into deep sleep. Are there any apps that monitor and report on problem apps that cause the phone to not enter deep sleep? I had to manually figure out that Facebook and I think QIK were the 2 that never allow...

    How is the battery life on the skyrocket?

    Personally I am showing 69% after some 8hours today. Stock rom but rooted. Facebook app for me was the culprit for never entering deep sleep. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk

    Skyrocket battery chargers

    Use 1amp minimum chargers and don't use anything made by Belkin. I have 2 seperate high output Belkin car chargers and both don't handle the load while a small Samsung one easily keeps the phone charged during GPS navigation.

    How is the battery life on the skyrocket?

    Turn off wifi and gps unless need and reduced brightness to 50%. I also stopped using the stock email activesync and switched to using the standard hotmail app. I also don't use any weather widgets or constantly syncing apps. From my experience the stock activesync function seemed to be the...

    How is the battery life on the skyrocket?

    How is the battery life on the skyrocket?

    I just replaced mine and installed everything back except activesync and am getting wonderful battery life now. I don't expect this thing to get as good or better than an iphone because it isn't an iphone. Much better imo Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk

    Car adapter that charges while using GPS?

    Here's the thing though. If I use the ac adapter tied to an inverter then the charger can keep up with the demand. Not really sure if Samsung is doing something different in their chargers are if there is something different pinout wise on these phones.

    Car adapter that charges while using GPS?

    Any recommendations on an adapter that supplies ample power while using the GPS for nav? Belkin 1AMP doesn't cut it. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk

    skyrocket vs LG Nitro HD Lte

    I will probably be heading to the At&t store tomorrow to take a look at the phone after spending a few weeks on a SR. I may be swapping if it appears to be an improvement over the SR. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk

    How is the battery life on the skyrocket?

    Can anyone chime in on what car charger they have that supplies sufficient juice while using google nav or any other GPS enabling app? Does the .750mA charger work?

    How is the battery life on the skyrocket?

    I can confirm that using the ac adapter supplied by samsung on an inverter will supply the adequate amount of power and a Belkin car charger will not supply sufficient power. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk

    How is the battery life on the skyrocket?

    Samsung hasn't a clue and claims this is the first they heard about it. Personally I suspect an issue with the ROM loaded on this guy, but I can't confirm until I test further. Well I decided to fire up Google Nav while plugged into the AC charger that came with the phone and I am continually...

    How is the battery life on the skyrocket?

    I can now confirm that using GPS on a 1amp car charger in a HSPA+ area will in fact drain the battery? This using goggles nav. I am on the phone now with SAMSUNG to see what the true power requirement is for the phone with GPS. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk
