[T-Mobile LG G2x] wastingoctober:
To make a long story short, my mom and I both got G2x phones on launch day. Two weeks to the day after our purchase, her battery died and refused to boot even while plugged into the wall charger (which I now know can be fixed by simply pulling the battery). I was busy at work and couldn't help her, and since it was the last day to return the phone within the 14 day period, I just told her to go ahead and return the phone for a replacement.

Prior to her replacement, we had pretty similar battery lives. I used mine more during the day, but she kept Bluetooth and other services running because she was used to an EDGE-only iPhone 3G where she never had to turn Bluetooth off. Our phones lasted between 10 and 12 hours depending on usage. Not great, but not terrible either.

Since she swapped hers out, her battery life is insane. I've attached a screenshot that shows 70% battery life after almost 24 hours. She had Bluetooth running 24/7 (notice it has the exact same usage percentage as Cell Standby) and WiFi running for a good portion of the time (though WiFi slept while screen was off). She had 4G running the whole time. While I know people might balk at the bad LG battery drivers, after 48 hours, she still had 17% battery life left. I apologize for not taking a screenshot--I didn't think about it until later that day. Though if anyone wants me to, I'll take one the next time her phone gets that far along.

I should mention that this is with no optimization at all. She did fully discharge the battery the first time she used it and charged it completely afterward, but that's it. The phone was unrooted and running stock everything with no special tweaks.

I'm very much considering going back to T-Mobile and seeing if they will swap it out. While mine doesn't seem to have the bleeding or other issues that other people have described, if I can trade mine out for a replacement that will quadruple my battery life, why not?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hukkguai:
Wow that's amazing. I personally feel the G2x has excellent battery life. It has been way better than other Android phones I've had in the past (except for the original myTouch, I would get like 3 days out of that thing).

I wonder if the crazy battery life from your mom's phone is from the phone itself or the battery. I doubt T-Mobile will switch out your phone passed the exchange period (I'm a Tmo employee) but if they have any return G2x phones in stock, they should be cool to switch the battery out with you. I'm interested to see if it is indeed the phone or the battery.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wastingoctober:
That's a good suggestion. I'll experiment by swapping batteries with her to determine if it's her phone or her battery. I am inclined to think it's something different with the phone, but we'll see!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] computermilk:
this would REALLY suck if it's true... because I got mine at Radioshack.. and I really loathe going to that store... ugh.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] hypersonicx:
I also have amazing battery life. I can go 12 hours at work and still have 80% left. Got mine from the store on launch day.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] cnraghu:
Could you please post the manufactured date (back of the G2x Box) for the second phone? Saw some posts which said phones on or after 4/29 are really good without any of the previous issues.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] F0rgiven:
Curious to see what the verdicts are. If we can get that kind battery life out of our phones, that'd be incredible!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] strung:
Yesterday I pulled my phone off the charger at 8AM. Went all day. I leave Wifi and Bluetooth on. Made about an hour of phone calls. Occasional checking of a website here or there. Did not charge phone at night. when I went to bed around midnight it was at 25% or so. Did not put it on charger. This morning it was at about 20%.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mysterioustko:
Not to rain on your parade. But from your screenshot, it shows no voice calls at all and little to no display use. 24 hrs on a charge without every really using the phone isn't really an accomplishment. Now if she can get 24 hours on a charge and have actually used the phone at least moderately then that would be different. I'd like to see how long her battery lasts with actual use of the phone. That would be a more true indicator of the battery life.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kangxi:
I was going to state that... based on that... her screen was only on for a total of 30 minutes out of 1440 minutes... not a major accomplishment. These phones are meant to be used not just carried around like a flip phone from 2001.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mysterioustko:
Exactly! She could have pretty much accomplished the same thing by just leaving the phone turned off or just leaving it at home. Some of us would like to actually use our phones, not just have them around for decoration lol. Now if someone gets 24 hours on a single charge with actual use, then I'd love to see that thread as that would be useful information.

There is no theme.

This is only modified version.

With next version I'll include theme.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] NishantM:
I was in a search of a modded rom which is fully stock based, without any theme. Almost all theme based ROMs I tried had one or the other problems (mostly freeze issues and even hard reset). Will try this one out. BTW, what all apps have you removed?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] dpthakar:
all the samsung apps
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] dpthakar:
Thanks

You inspired me to keep stock theme.

with ATROM 2.0 you can download stock theme.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] reddead66:
can we use themes on deodexed ddjp2??

all themes??
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] dpthakar:
Yes, you can use themes on deodexed ddjp2.

I am not sure about all themes.

I randomly tried two-three themes & kept the one I prefer.

Keep backup of original theme so that can be restored if required.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] reddead66:
which is the most stable base rom

ddjp2,jhzpf,jpm,jpn or some other rom.....????

i am currently on ddjp2,already tried jpm,indroid (jpm base)....

thinking of flashing either your rom or select a stable rom and add things up myself.....

Sent from my GT-I5801
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] dpthakar:
you can try ATOM 2.0, its ddjp2 based.

I found no issue once after modified ddjp2 with fugumod kernel.

If you want to use your own rom, use I5801ZHJPF. its stock version was stable enough,

Hey,

When I start up my camera on the Desire it just brings up a black screen, no image nothing, its unresponsive to anything but hitting the home button a couple of times to get back to the main screen.

Anybody got any ideas to get round this
[Desire HD General] Mr_JMM:
Had this once after a recovery restore. try re-flash the ROM over the top without wiping any data.
[Desire HD General] sgroimax:
;););) Yesssss..... Re-flash your ROM but do a fullwipe. :rolleyes:
[Desire HD General] Mr_JMM:
NO!!! NO NO NO NO NO NO!!

Just to clarify, I think sgroimax is being sarcastic. I hope so anyway.

ONLY if flashing without wipe fails to fix should you resort to wipe.
[Desire HD General] ronalgps:
thank you guys

but I already flashed wipe all noway camara back

is just black screen only way to see thet start menu is touching HOME
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] livewiire:
Does anyone have any idea how to fix the 3G problem when I am on 2.3.3 rom...I have 2.2 stock rom on my N1 at the moment and no problem picking up 3G.As soon as I update to anything above that 2.2.1,2.3.3 or 2.3.4 I get no 3g whatsoever..I know it is an ongoing problem but come on it should have been sorted by now..My phone is In Spain and I know the APN is correct.The radio is 5.08.00.08 Korean as far as I can remember...Any ideas?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TronC:
Hi all,

Yesterday HTC launched the official gingerbread 2.3.3 update for the Desire HD over the air.

I have my phone rooted with a custom (gingerbread 2.3.3) ROM from RCMixHD team. So I already have GB..

But if I update, will I lose root? Also, will I be able to flash custom roms after the update? cause with the android 2.2.1 update, that became a problem.. (downgrading was necessary).

Also.. is the update worth it, is it better/faster/more stable than custom GB roms?

thanks for answering,
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_JMM:
Simple answer: If you want a stock, unrooted phone then yes, install the OTA update and if it is possible to get the OTA on a rooted phone (I have doubts) then yes, you will lose root.

No, it won't be better to have the stock ROM. You can already get a rooted version of it.

Summary: Leave well alone.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TronC:
ok thanks, thought the OTA would be more stable and fully functional or something, but I've got no problems with my custom ROM so okay, will stay with it :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_JMM:
No worries.

If you have problems why not upgrade to LeeDroid v3.0.x then you get the equivalent of the latest OTA update plus even more goodies.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ma3x747:
stock rom 2.2.1

So the I have a stock rom and i can update but after 1 or 2 weeks can i root my phone and use a cooked rom with sense 3.0. Or my phone will be totally locked(for rooting and new xda roms) and I`ll be stuck with sense 2.0 :eek: .

EDIT : OK . I did the (OTA) and i found that i will be able to downgrade and install the xda rom , so i am not locked and still can have some fun with my phone :) 10x xda :)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TronC:
Ok, thanks for testing and reporting back :)

Think i'll switch to leedroid 3.0.x then
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SERGI.3210:
like my syg. says i have gingerbread leedroid 3.0.2 flashed and works perfect at the moment.. (i flashed this rom yesterday at morning... and testing it

yes me too. very much. i like simple, dark, matted, unbeveled, farily monochromed themes.

Try again, I guess....I flashed both before uploading them and just to be sure I checked inside both just now and they included my edits. Make sure you're using edify with cwr 3.x....which im pretty sure everyone is using by now. If more people have problems, I'll try uploading them again.

jkat, be more specific. If you mean the status bar or the notifications themselves, they are in framework-res.apk. If you mean the quick panel, that's in twframework-res.apk.

I want to thank you guys for debugging this thing with me, I'm not sure what was wrong, but I updated the accurate battery version of the theme to the newest sbrissen mods and it fixed the problem with the music and player pro apps. He hasn't updated his scripts yet, though.

I'm currently uploading the theme and it'll be up later tonight. Tomorrow I'll update the stock battery version, though nothing's wrong with that one for some reason.

[ABANDONED] My worries have been aliviated by the people posting here that T-Mobile did not check for an unlocked bootloader. That's enough for me to close the issue. If someone does need to find the answer to this question, feel free to pursue it otherwise I consider this [CLOSED]

-----edit above-----

I've already searched for this EXTENSIVELY and need more help. I have a similar problem to this thread (which wasn't resolved), but didn't want to revive a dead thread from Dec '10 to ask this.

First and most important question is: WILL I NEED TO DO THIS?> Will T-Mobile check for the unlocked bootloader on a broken-screen phone and will they notice my MIUI rom? (:(I'm REALLY worried about this because rooting my phone does void the warranty, but honestly I didn't break it. The screen just stopped working. Really worried = the search for a solution).

Is HTC warranty a better option? (I'm actually the second owner and the original owner is going to try to do the replacement)

I've realized that I can use Android Screencast to see what the phone is showing, and touch input still works on my phone (though Android Screencast isn't letting me use my computer mouse/keyboard to use my phone). This is only available on a rom/backup with USB debugging enabled, and shows CWM Recovery (using the latest version).

Can someone please help me go through all the steps needed to restore everything to stock?

I am cursed by this issue and realize that someone would need to take over an hour to figure all this out.

>>I know I'm asking for a lot, but this is a great community to be involved in and I've searched all over for help before posting.<<

__________________

P.S. I've also looked at [Guide] Remove permanent root, and I need to know what extra steps I will need to know with a broken screen. CWM 3.0+ presents a problem for stock rom, and I need one with USB debugging enabled already.

Also, fyi I used the Rage/Gfree latest version available as of Jan 24 (when I rooted). I did not flash the Engineering HBoot, which would probably help.
[G2 and Desire Z General] bobsfoot:
What i found was they dont care about the software. confirmed twice. Apparently it is a known defect in the phone that the screen stops working, they will admit it now. We have done 2 warranty replacements and the first one at the time of the post, they tried to charge me for breaking the screen (we did a better business bur Complaint) and got refunded. The second time they didnt even question it and we werent even charged.

So no they dont care, dont worry about it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] Kevin001111:
I just so happen to have the exact problem as you, i stepped on my phone leavng the screen internally broken put the touch screen still worked. I was running CM7 and i called them and just sent it in with no problems. there not there to look at the software and are not going to take the time to replace screens on all the phones they get in first to see if there rooted or not. If you cant tell its rooted by looking at the screen (i mean it is broken) then theres no way they will. Just send it in and you'll get it in about weeks time
[G2 and Desire Z General] Nonentity018:
I had this problem and submitted it to warrenty, anyway. They asked me three questions, is the screen cracked. Is there any external damage, and any water damage. All were no's, so they replaced the phone without ever checking for root.
[G2 and Desire Z General] daboma:
Thanks for all the responses. All three of you have reassured me to the point that I'm not going to worry about it either. While I appreciate that T-Mobile is not going to charge me for rooting my device (which I should be able to do), I am annoyed that as a secondary owner I do not get warranty support and need to have the original owner take care of it.
