I used the ext4 version of the fix, and am not running into this problem... for what it's worth.

FWIW.. I just did a fresh install of JH3 and used SRE 1.2.1 and used Tat's ext4 fix.. Charged to 100% (was on charge ~8 hours) and 8 hours later I'm at approx 60% battery.. Haven't talked on it at all just been listening to Pandora and IMing with Trillian... and even the IMing was sparse..

Not sure but this seems to be using more battery than normal..

My battery is suffering a little, but I think it is just a bug with the IO. I've been running this fix for a few days, installed from the market and yesterday the battery did pretty good. Today I unplugged at 8 am worked all day and did not use the phone at all, at 5 pm I was at 72%. From what I have read on smart phones they are battery killers. Instead of constant worry over battery usage I found a $10 package on E-Bay that includes 2 generic batteries for Samsung Captivates and a charger. I will just carry a few spares just in case. I'd rather sacrifice battery life to get rid of the lag. This is my second Cap and my first had improved battery after 2 weeks of use and "break in", I've had this phone for 1 1/2 weeks so it may improve in the next few days.

The battery wasn't great to start so I don't think it is the Lag fix at all.
