^ Running out ? Or going very low. Yesterday held on to 5% for 4hrs straight.

But I am struggling to charge it to full. 4-5 hrs it goes max to 75%. Anyone having same trouble?

i am guessing this seems to be a calibration error more than anything else. did you try recalibrating the battery ?

Are you using the AC adapter or the USB port to charge? With the AC adapter my phone reaches 100% within 2 hours mostly from 10%. Whereas when charging through USB it takes 5-6 hours for 100%.

When it recognizes that it's connected to a USB port, it draws less current and hence charging takes much longer. Connect it to the wall socket and it should be faster.

Do the battery calibration too. I'm getting easily 36 hrs on normal usage on RLS7.
 
^ true, charge cycles are slow when connected with USB with JJ RSL7/8, but I had noticed on the stock rom that the charge through charger and USB almost took the same time, haven't done the calibration .. its good to know that the device is intelligent enough to detect when it is connected with USB ( os is it android that is being intelligent?) coz my samsung phone use to take same amout of time with both usb and charger, in case of USB device should be intelligent enough or it might harm your system in the long run. and i would not recommend charging with laptop USB coz they already are less powered when compared to desktops.

36Hours !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!how come?
 
^ yes. Maybe my usage is not as heavy but I get though with around an hour of calls, an hour of surfing or apps, push email for about 10 hours and maybe 5 texts.

I guess you have to re flash.

^^ Use 2G, use the phone primarily for talking, don't use Wi-fi, turn off always on data connection. It can be easily achievable.
 
ZTE Blade Full Body Protection

Price is 620 bucks for single piece.

I had contacted them for bulk pricing and if we order 10 units then the effective pricing will come to 500 bucks excluding local shipping.Not worth as even if we buy 2 piece pricing comes to around 470 bucks.

20 Units pricing will come down to around 440 bucks excluding local shipping.

How many would be interested in getting it.If more people are interested then we can start thinking of a GO.I cannot handle the GO due to my upcoming exams.Someone would need to volunteer for the same.

Hurray my 2500th post :D

shucks, anyhow I love the blade with Japanese Jellyfish 2.2 rom, Its quite fast and battery last so much more, negligible use while locked.

@guys, im planning on buying the Soundmagic-MP21 earphones could anyone tell if its compatible with the Blade? or any other IEMs that are compatible (with mic if possible).

I tried my MP21, the mic wasnt working. I've heard the Samsung earphones which comes with the Champ work properly on this, and they only cost 300 bucks or so
 
Possibly the final version of JJ, JJ RLS 9 is out now. Now the focus might be on the new release of Swedish 2.2 that should happen soon.
 
Maybe will be getting this phone. So anybody had any problems so far with the phone? And even if something wrong, can we get it repaired somehow, given that the XCD35 is selling here already?

Edit: is this the same one from this thread [OLED+TFT] 18/Jan r11: MoDaCo Custom Froyo ROM download + Online Kitchen - Android @ MoDaCo

Also is the ROM generated by selecting all the options from the online kitchen?

dont you think Samsung SGH-T349 from this link will be a very good deal, with aramex, the phone should come to around 2.5k which is a brilliant price for this phone Samsung SGH-T349 - Unlocked
