Read that some users experienced charging issues.... fortunately none here. Factory Samsung charger took it from 56% out of the box to 100% with a niiiice green LED in about 2 hours 15 minutes. Going to follow recommended procedure and go 12 hours for the first charge ....
I've been getting upwards of 24 hours on my stock battery w/ the following settings:
No automatic Facebook updates.
JuiceDefender set to hourly connectivity during the day and no connectivity while I'm asleep.
Gmail set to hourly updates.
No WIFI ever... I have 6 gigs of data that I rarely encroach upon.
Screen brightness set to about 50%. Good even in bright daylight.
No animations.
Black background.
4G speed.
Vibration off.
Touch sounds off.
I use the phone, calendar, text, and Gmail regularly throughout the day and don't miss the bells and whistles. Internet, facebook and youtube from time to time.
Looking forward to the 4200's lifespan with these settings.
