Nova launcher as well. Has anyone actually flashed anything on their north american variants yet? Curious to see some feedback on the existing roms out there as there doesn't seem to be a huge variety to choose from

You can just purchase an unlock code from cellunlocker. Was able to do it for mine and a couple friends did the same and were all on different carriers

leaving programs on will drain battery.
also you have to break in the battery my battery life improved dramatically after 2nd day use

Task managers do nothing for Android. In fact they probably cause more battery usage than save it.

they are talking about 3rd party task killers.
Use the one built in the OS.
BTW turn off all the gimics because they drain battery like shit. S Voice activation motion control etc

^^ I need help with that too, I have a POOP folder with all the stock apps that are useless to me.
My battery life has been pretty bad aswell, my s2 was a lot better and it only lasted a day.
I am trying to blame the LTE but it would be nice to have a phone that lasted the whole day.
