What about v.2.12 that was supposed to also fix the battery drain. I'm telling you i have tried every version and battery takes a hit without really using your phone.

Whoops... it's hard to keep up with all the new versions sometimes. V.2.10 was better than v.2.04. But now I'm running v2.12 and the battery drain is only 1% an hour, give or take. It seems that it improved after a few days of running it. I'm not sure why it would, but that's my impression. I'm running Juicy's ROM, so that might add to the battery life.

I used s2u2 back in the titan days, but I would never use it anymore.

I'm in this camp.

S2U2 is technically a really nice program, tons of features and a great price (lol).

But, it suffers from XDA-ism: too many g-damn options.

For the power-user/hobbyist, it's a boatload of fun. For those who want a simple, light locker that works without really any bugs (AFAIK), I think PocketShield is a better choice.

Make sure the theme(s) is in the "S" folder inside your PS folder. Once its there, go into you PS settings under design, your theme(s) should be in there. Once you select the theme that you want the gray bar turns green asking you to save it. A new screen will pop up asking if you want classic or split. Select what you want to change, click save and you should be good.

I've tried both versions of S2U2 and both have drained the battery quickly. I also have tried PS with a similar battery drain problem.

My TP2 is stock. Mail is checked every 2 hrs. Brightness is about 1/2 way. How are your batteries lasting so long? I installed PS again and the battery has gone down from 76% to 69% in about 30 mins.....please advise.
