If Arc launcher is the cause of battery drain, I can live with it. It's damn good!
Btw, the list of Applications under settings, doesn't show Arc launcher. It rather shows these two apps which I think can be related to the launcher/theme : LunarUi and Ice Cream Sandwich (yes, there is an application named this, with size of just 4 KB. Wondering what it does on my Gingerbread).

Also, I don't think there is any question of losing default status, the apps just stops to show. For eg, when I moved both the "Swype" and "Perfect Keyboard free" to card, I couldn't select ANY keyboard for writing. Thereby leaving the option of loosing default status out of the question.
(I hope I have able to explain clearly. )

looks great. but sadly, that it.

LunarUI = the bluish theme of the status bar and all.
ICS? hmmm, it shouldn't be but i feel its the launcher. or some part of ICS. wallpaper?

if you select swype as default keyboard and move it to external memory, next time you try typing you'll be presented with the stock keyboard. but you can again long press a blank space and select Swype but that is loosing default.

Actually, all keyboards have to remain in phone memory. Also, all apps for which you use widgets also have to be in phone memory rather than SD Card.

^^ Wait AndroidFan, I'm coming too.

I am on nightly 30,the main problem was huge battery drain can't even last for 14hrs,seen suggestion of Pablo's kernel,any other kernel/suggestion to improve battery life and don't suggest usual tips like bg off,min brightness,etc.

This 14 hrs was with some texts,45min of calls,some music and games,no 2g/3g,wifi............

can't keyboard be selected if moved to external memory? i once did it with swype long ago. can't remember what happened.
yup. once moved widgets are no longer available. Google should fix this issues in the next update. maybe cause of security risk they are not implementing the same.

finally some nice backup.

^^ how did you manage 2 days?? that's simply impossible for me. :screwy::what:
How? was the data off all the time?

 

[Vyom]

^^ Something's telling me that a good signal almost all the time, has got to do with battery life a lot, since a lot of battery is consumed while the phone keeps looking for better signals.

data was off all time. but used music a lot & Wifi. when using wifi there was steep drops. with data on, even 24hrs is impossible.

thats true. if signal is good, battery backup improves quite a bit.

Try two things...
1. Put the phone in to Airplane Mode for few sec and revert back. And then turn on data. (This trick works for me 90% of time)

2. Reboot the phone.

 

[Neo]

Also, do you have the correct APN?Check in settings.
Which service provider you use?

yes, its the same, i havent changed it, Docomo tata.docomo.internet

Then talk to the customer care and confirm if data plan is activated or not.
Something similar happened to me a whole ago. I activated the gprs plan and used the internet for a day. At night suddenly it stopped working. The next day customer care told me that they need to re enable the plan. And after that it started working.

That is Rs 360+ when you include shipping costs...

A cheaper option is for Rs 330 Shipped -- Flipkart.com: Transcend Memory Card MicroSDHC 8GB Class 4: Memory Card

But I would suggest go for a Class 10 card if possible -- Flipkart.com: Transcend Memory Card MicroSDHC 8GB Class 10: Memory Card

 

[Neo]

^^Whats the difference?

 

[Vyom]

Difference is of speed. Class four gives speeds of not lower than 4 mbps. And class six gives speeds not less than 6 mbps. And so on...
