Not 100% happy with GS2 battery consumption

I have no problem with it lasting through the day, but it runs down too fast during the night, and I haven't found what's causing it, though I have some good tools to monitor things (CPU%).

Photo taken with HDR Camera+

I heard Steve Litchfield warn of jitter danger when taking HDR snaps on Phones Show Chat today, and was lucky enough on my daily walk to find one of the few remaining colour opportunities around here. I swear I jittered a bit, but HDR Camera+ seems to do some smart computing, as to me this snap seems pretty sharp. It was taken with a Galaxy S2 v. 2.3.5. Comments welcomed :)

Galaxy S2 Updated

While the phone was on charge today I checked for system Updates, and found there was one.. it was ca. 26MB and after quick download installation took surprisingly long from 50%. After it rebooted fully, I was surprised by another 5.5MB update which also took quite a while to install, but in the end the phone was at 2.3.5 build I9100XXKI4 - great!

This removes a degree of concern about Samsung updates being slow :)

Here's the winner

Remember, it was a pretty dull day..

Galaxy S2 Camera apps

It wasn't the best weather for a test of the standard Camera app with a paid app called HDR Camera+, but I came across some colourful leaves on a few twigs close to home and took a snap with both apps. The result was clearly in favour of the HDR app.
