[LG Optimus 2x] MillyMoo106:
I've heard the first few battery cycles aren't too good but get better, I was a very heavy user when i initially got it so i can't comment
[LG Optimus 2x] KeePeeR26:
hahaha mine lasts for 2 weeks:p but was closed ;)

U ever touch this phone :confused:
[LG Optimus 2x] sacredsoul:
It would obviously last for days if your hardly touch it :P

All I want is for it to last one entire day (about 15 hours?) on heavy usuage (surfing, texting, social networking). I hardly play games nor use the music player (have an mp3 player for that :P)

The iPhone 4 was perfect for me in this aspect. The battery lasted 1 full day no matter how heavily I used the device. No, I am not a fanboy but I just like how well iOS manages power.

After the iPhone 4, I had the Dell Streak and with Juice Defender installed, it was pretty decent too. I dont know why I am here in the first place. I still havent gotten my 2X yet. Its supposed to arrive in a few hours. Ill try it out and let you guys know how well it performs.

Cheers.
[LG Optimus 2x] xmoo:
That is correct
[LG Optimus 2x] vainqueur:
You should disable "Auto-sync", disable "Automatic brightness". And what ever apps you install, dont let it auto-sync or auto-update, then you should be good. Now, it dont even drain my battery that much even thought the dataplan was on most of the time.
[LG Optimus 2x] chowdarygm:
if i disable all and off all the apps, then y do i need this phone?? :eek:
[LG Optimus 2x] chowdarygm:
and yesterday night (12 AM to 8 AM), my battery was down by 50 % in idle :eek:

as suggested by other friends lets see until this weekend if i can see any improvement on battery front.....
[LG Optimus 2x] spawndk:
If you battery goes down 50% in idle overnight then obviously you have some sort of application running rogue and preventing the phone to actually go to its sleep state. Which would also explain the heavy battery drain during daytime use.

Mine use 2-3% at the most in idle overnight - and I have no troubles whatsoever to get a full days heavy use - usually I get 2 days with moderate use. I also have an Iphone4 and my LG have better batterylife than my Iphone4, my LG also has better batterylife than my HTC Desire.

I also bought an O2x for my 17year old son - who is a very heavy user, music and videoplayback, games and constantly texting - his phone also lasts a full day with no troubles.
[LG Optimus 2x] Mjuksel:
I rooted my standard LG O2X, then i removed the crap that LG brought on default..

(Twitter/Myspace/Facebook for LG, LG Home, LG AppAdvisor, FSecure Scanner etc etc)

Now my battery life is without further mods about 30-40 hours with calling, texting and some browsing (wifi enabled)
[LG Optimus 2x] _mightyI:
If you ask 1000 persons how long the battery life of their lg ox2 is you will get at least 500 answers ;)

I can say at beginning i was shocked, but after some days the battery life gets better. Atm after 4 weeks i can say my battery lasts at least one day, depends on the degree of usage...

By the app "Ultimate Juice Defender" you can increase the battery life by factor 1.5. (sometimes i can use it for 2-3 days without charging)

Remember : If you drive a Ferrari you have to refuel a lot ;)

No smartphone differs much from that...
[LG Optimus 2x] awf:
Correct :cool:
[LG Optimus 2x] goatee:
Correct - and you may have some luck seeing if Watchdog can pick it up. Otherwise, charge your phone, and turn it off, then turn it on, and unplug it just before you go to bed. In the morning, you can check what application used most of the battery.
[LG Optimus 2x] Tr0gledyte:
Mine uses about 1% per hour at night with JuiceDefender. Before I installed JuiceDefender the battery would go from 30% to dead overnight, preventing my alarm from going off. :mad:

JuiceDefender lets me get through the day. More specifically if you let JuiceDefender disable the data connection when the screen is off. You'll still get Whatsapp messages / emails etc if you let it sync every 15 minutes or so, without excessive battery drain.

Web browsing is also a super battery killer, I swear the battery goes down 1% per minute while browsing.
[LG Optimus 2x] chowdarygm:
I have used many android phones and never used this juice defender..... actually i hate stop using apps for battery.... android is made out of apps....

Currently i have taken out my SE Arc and using it which is giving me 1.5 days of battery with heavy usage.... i will reset the LG phone this weekend and see, if not i would have to sell this hog......
[LG Optimus 2x] sinni800:
For me there were a few apps that were stealing my battery away. Like IM+, Skype, etc. You could see that in the secret menu "how much time has this app kept the phone from sleepin".

If I turn on flight mode (no more connection) it doesnt even care when it lays there for two nights. I lost about 5% in two days without plugging it in AT ALL.

But that's not the POINT of this phone. You don't have it so you turn off everything and spoil your fun.

THE POINT IS *smashes desk* TO HAVE THOSE APPS.

If I couldn't be IM'ed all day where would the point of the phone go? For me... away.

I have had it for like 3 weeks now. When I have those things on in the background, it doesnt even last like 9 hours. It just runs flat without me even using it a lot.

Once it went so far out it died in like 3 hours WITHOUT ME USING IT. It started to run hot without any reason and draining the battery like I attached a freaking laptop with a dedicated Nvidia CPU to it. It drained the battery faster as if I was using it! I haven't yet found out what causes this. Sometimes it does it and runs empty on it.

Oh well D:
[LG Optimus 2x] wapz:
It is so pointless to have a smartphone without sync and IM. It is one of the main points. If it cannot handle it, it isn't a smartphone.

when i first got my captivate, i loaded all my contacts from the sim card and assigned a png file on the phone to the contacts. this allowed a transparent background when the graphic was displayed by the dialer and handcent. i recently moved all my contacts to my google account and added icons/avatars there. the images were then synced to my phone. both google and my phone now display the contacts with a black background when the png file that was uploaded had a transparent background. is there a way to get the png to display with the transparent background?

thanks!

I was having problems w/ google talk force closing on me all the time. Didn't matter which build (CM7.0.2.1 or 7.0.3.1). Downloaded 20110503 GAPPS to fix this issue. It includes the latest version of google talk (video chat). This is the easiest and fastest way (to me at least) to fix the FC issue.

BTW THIS WAS USED FOR CM7.0.3.1 STABLE ONLY. I AM NOT SURE IF IT WILL WORK WITH THE OTHER STABLES, NIGHTLIES, AOSP, EVERVOLV. DEFINITELY NO SENSE!

wipe cache/dalvik, then flash...

Hi Guys,

i Finally managed to get cyanogen mod on my phone thanks to you :) however after a little while i noticed there was no flash player.

i thought you couldn't get 10.2 because you need a ARM v7 processor, so is there any other way of getting some form of flash player(especially for the web browser)

any help would greatly be appreciated :)
[Click General] andynroid:
Because of no GPU it will not work
[Click General] jonesai2013:
thanks but it managed to have flash on 1.6 so is there any way to downgrade flash to a lower version??
[Click General] ivcastom84:
Yes on sense rom you can have flash. Because cyanogenmod is not sense you can't have working flash. Cyanogenmod with working flash player will be ultimate rom. Maybe sometime in the future. :mad:

[Acer Iconia A500] rorytmeadows:
I'm not thoroughly convinced that I need a keyboard with my device, but if I was going to buy one, it would have to be either very small or very thin. Why tote around a keyboard that's just as large as the tablet?

Any ideas?

Of course, there's always this: http://www.thinkgeek.com/computing/keyboards-mice/8193/

(if it was ever in stock again).

I am currently using the Acer wrapping with an Incase faux-fir slip case, so I'd hope that it would be low-profile enough to fit in there.

[Acer Iconia A500] depperly:
I have the Moto keyboard (Link) and for the most part it's a very nice unit. The only real issue with it is the massive bump in the back where they put the batteries and whatever else they have packed into it, that and not all the short cut keys work, but I am not sure that is the keyboard.

It's worth the purchase, and is very nice on the plane, but I find myself not carrying it locally just due to size. The Jorno looks like a great compromise for when I am more local but want to slam out a page or two...

Sure, it's not going to be the world's greatest keyboard, but I'm really just looking for decent yet portable. If I really need something more, I've got a Logitech K340 that works great. It's not bluetooth, but Logitech's USB receivers are so small anymore that it really doesn't detract at all.

I picked up this keyboard on sale for 39.95 at my local supermarket. It works well for typing and such, just missing the android shortcut keys that my motorola xoom KB has. It comes with a case for the ipad attached but its just double sided taped to the case, took nothing at all to pull it off and chuck the case. Its smaller in length and width than my Acer, and less than 1/2" thick. Also has a rechargeable battery built in which is nice. Also spillproof. Heres the link to it at amazon, and I'll see if I can snap a few pics of mine out of the case for everyone.

http://www.amazon.com/Gembox-Keyboard-Tablet-Model-Charger/dp/B004B8UZUM

EDIT: Just read the reviews at amazon...not too favorable as far as longevity goes. I've had mine about a month with no problems, but I really don't use it too often. Time will tell I suppose. If it lasts, its the perfect size and if it doesn't it will be a nice paperweight.
[Acer Iconia A500] gtriever:
I just ordered a Spider E-Series to try out, along with an Arkon stand. Figured that for 36 bucks it was worth a try, even though one of the two Amazon reviews wasn't all that great. Newegg, OTOH, had four out of four good reviews (although they were for iPhone and Win 7 use). We shall see...

[Acer Iconia A500] rorytmeadows:
Yeah, I saw the press release the other day. I love Logitech products, but it just doesn't look slim enough for me. A keyboard that goes along with the tablet should really be as thin or thinner (and smaller) than the tablet itself. I'll wait for someone here to pick that one up and share pics/comments.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] delitero:
Hi guys, just bought an Samsung Galaxy S II from UK and waiting for it to be delivered. I was wondering if the warranty provided by O2(the phone was purchase from them) has EU coverage through Samsung service or O2 has their own service network and in case something wrong happens i have to send it back to UK.

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Your warranty is with O2 UK not Samsung UK Sale of Goods Act .

Samsung warranty is secondary but they seem to carry out warranty repairs with a valid receipt . Many choose to by pass the seller and go straight to Samsung for repairs .

Thats the way i would go .

jje
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] delitero:
Thanks JJEgan, thats awsome news. Samsung representatives told me that as long as on the warranty card is the Samsung logo im covered for Samsung warranty on entire EU.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottishlad80:
After 14 days O2 default to the manufacturers warranty but within the contract terms (sales of good act) it is the point of sales responsibilty to organise the repair with the manufacturer not you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] delitero:
Ok so that means if i my phone stop working in the warranty period i have to send it to O2 and they will send it to Samsung without me being able to get in touch with Samsung directly?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
SALE OF GOODS ACT UK

The seller is responsible not anyone else . Phone breaks after 36 days it is down to the seller not the manufacturer to repair or replace .

However in practice take your phone to O2 40 days after sale and they will honour the warranty in one of two ways . One send it to their own service centre or more than likely send it to Samsung . But make no mistake at all times the seller is liable not Samsung .The warranty that Samsung offer is over and above the sellers responsibility . Though many will say not our problem after 28 days . But it is 100% their problem .

Thas not to say the best route is not via Samsung .

jje
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] delitero:
then im pretty screw if i will have to send it to O2...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
No contact Samsung first see what they say probabilities is they will fix it .

All i am saying is that in law the manufacturer is not responsible for warranty . But in most cases take it on direct for the customer .

The issue is that most people think the Optimus 3d GPU is the same as the one in our phone/tablet. It isn't. Though both are 540 gpu's but they are manufactured on different processors to different tolerances. It's like comparing two car engines both maybe V8's but both produce different levels of power.

The only thing which may work would be the driver.
