I use this one:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.devuni.flashlight&feature=search_result

It's got a nice widget which infrequently has a small delay. I've heard that doesn't happen in the app itself though.
[LG Optimus 2x] Bigpsy:
try this app

: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.scottmain.android.searchlight&feature=search_result

I think this Flash light app is the stablest flashlight app on O2X
[LG Optimus 2x] stevvie:
+1 from me. The widget comes in VERY handy.

This is what I also use - its _really_ good.

The UI is pretty and offers different uses + the widget is just perfect.

I'm using 'Torch', you can find it in the Android Market. Working great!

Was out on the lake with a few friends and my phone was dropped in water. I do not know how long it was in water, but when i found it, it was soaked. Is putting it in a bag of rice going to work? Please help!@!!!`
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
That sucks man....Make sure you pull the battery and let it sit for 48 hours. You can even use a blow dryer. I have heard of the rice working but they have beads you can get called HeartFelt beads and they will suck the moisture out of anything.

Just make sure you don't turn it on until you have let it sit long enough. You might get lucky. You might not. I hope you have insurance.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
Rice will work... I had a friend this happened to. Pull the battery, towel dry it, and put it in an air tight container.. in the middle of some rice. Let it sit at least 48hrs. I would give it 96 personally to make sure. After 48, move the rice around a bit so some drier morsels are closer to the device, wait another 48. Put the battery in the container too but not in the device.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
i got one of these to avoid this kind of disaster while out on the lake... http://www.otterbox.com/OtterBox-10...-20_color=20&start=1&cgid=otterbox-1000-cases

hope you get it dried out. was the phone on when it hit the water?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Cool, thanks. I just ordered one. That will definitely come in handy while working at the FireHouse when were en-route to fires and my phone usually crashes all around the pumper while flying through the city streets.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
the g2x fits in there nice,even with my bodyglove case on. i do have to take off the belt clip though. there is some play in it though,it's not a custom fit. but, it is nicely lined with some .....i'd have to say neoprene? yes, it's neoprene. and it seems thick enough to really protect during a drop. and the outer case is rock solid. i wouldn't do it, but i'd bet you could launch your phone 50 feet and it would survive. i'm gonna try it with my g1 lol. seriously. and i'm gonna record it. maybe otterbox will send me a case if i show them how i demonstrate it's durability.

if you wanted to custom fit it, you could probably glue in a second liner with this.. http://www.google.com/products/cata...=X&ei=ywzGTZfgEsjb0QHT8oSuCA&ved=0CF0Q8wIwAg#
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jononioo:
yeah... the phone was on when it went under. it went in a cooler and im not sure how long it was in the cooler for. i approximate it was in the cooler for about ~20 mins. im sooo pissed. i just bought this phone like 1 week ago. im still within the store return policy(14 days) but im not sure they will even take it back if it will not power on. (i was planning on taking it back anyway b/c it keeps hard freezing.)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Great idea for the video and your right. Otterbox will probably hook you up for doing it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Dude, if I were you, I would try to return it to every store around you until you find someone stupid enough not to look at the water damage strip. I returned mine to 2 different stores and neither one looked at it. Just neatly package it up and try. Whats the worst that can happen? Your bound to find someone who will return it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spyvie:
There is almost always some kind of moisture indicator in the phone. I doubt you can get a once wet phone past them.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
took the words right out of my mouth. they actually sell those stickers online,ebay etc. in all shapes and sizes. but you didn't hear that from me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
lol, now that was funny. nice help there.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ickster:
Or you could live up to your mistake, bite the bullet and be honest. What a concept. What part of doing what he suggests isn't immoral, wrong, and fraud?

How about T-Mobile just repackages that phone and sends it to you jrwingate6? I'll bet you'd be pissed.

Why do you people think it's so hard to get these companies to do right by US?

You could always just sell it here. What's the difference.? Put in one of those fake indicators....what the hay.

Am I'm the only one that thinks this? Changing out the moisture indicator?Jeesh. Pretty sorry if you ask me.

I'm sorry if I'm harsh. Just left a bad taste in my mouth.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] crazythunder:
amen. i mentioned the indicators without thinking only because i know they do sell them. but in the real world where i'm not half asleep at my pc, i'd never recommend someone do something like this. and if it looked like i was condoning something like that, i wasn't. in my years of cell phone usage,10 or so, i have never returned a phone due to my carelessness. my g1 has a cracked screen from 6 months after i got it. still sitting on my desk, still working.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Where in my post did I mention changing the water damage indicator strip? I told him to return it and quite frankly if the employee doesn't look for water damage then that's there own damn fault for not doing what they were trained to do. Sorry about that bad taste in your mouth....HAHA.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spyvie:
So if you manage to trick somebody into giving you something you don't deserve then it's "there own damn fault"?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
I never mentioned anything about tricking someone. I don't know how you can come away with tricking someone from my post. Somebody else mentioned the stickers you can buy from EBay and yes, that would be tricking. I just told him to return as is and tell them it doesn't work. Its up to the store employee to examine the device to determine if it has water damage or not. If you think that is tricking then maybe you should go pop open a English Dictionary.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Chance Ill:
I say do whatever you feel is necessary. Period!

G1, G2, G2X
[T-Mobile LG G2x] *Omnipresent*:
Under water for 20 minutes? Sorry to be harsh but you are screwed. Next time be more careful. Trying to return/exchange the water damaged phone is wrong and you know it. You dont need us to tell you that:rolleyes: Remember, what goes around, comes around.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dalepa:
I dropped my g2x in the toilet.. It's still alive! It thought it had headphones plugged in for several hours, but finally started working 100%

Good luck.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] j2eubank:
try the rice or better yet go to a craft store and buy some silica, enough to submerse it in and leave it there for a day or so.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] azsl1326:
Sounds like you are still within your 14 days, why don't you add insurance to your plan?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
That would be dishonest and everyone here WILL NOT appreciate that. That is TRICKING the system. Seriously though, I would do something like that. I don't know if you read the previous posts but there seems to be people here who act like they have never done anything wrong in there life. Guess what, if it comes down to a company worth 33 billion dollars loosing $300 on a phone or myself who is worth about $75,000 a year losing $500 on a phone. I am going to choose the multi billion dollar company losing some pocket change. Sorry but thats just how I roll. If you don't like it then o-well. GET OVER IT!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ickster:
This is my first thought. It's probably 50/50 chance. I'd put it in dissacant, silica, or rice for as long as you can. Immersion can short out the battery as well. Good luck....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] twiztidnutzzzzz:
Wow there are some near perfect people in here....

but anyway I had dropped my g1 in the bathtub awhile back.. Not no 20 minutes worth but long enough for the screen to glitch... After realizing how wet it got and the screen was not responding to touch and realizing that it was only less then a few days old replacement from my broken one.

I yanked the battery out and used a towel to dry it out.. May have used a hair dryer in the lowest setting. kept the battery out for a few hours before trying the phone. It took about 2 weeks to be 100% back to normal with zero issues, PURE LUCK i presume..

BTW I heard mixed reviews about using the rice method and even hair dryer... Anyone else can chime on there near death experiences..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TGA_Gunnman:
changed my mind , I don't want to get involved
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Same here. I have heard mixed stuff about the rice. I would rather have it sit in the open with the air hitting hit. Let it sit for 3 days and try it out.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] screener72:
Put it under a light after you take the battery out

The light will give it heat to dry without damaging the board
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ickster:
I stand by what I said. He dropped his phone in the water. It's on him. If he trys to return it without telling them, it's stealing. Whether it's a person or a company, it's stealing. Period.

(edit) And he never asked about returning it, he asked if rice would work.

Whether I have ever done anything wrong in my life has nothing to do with it.

It's wrong period. And you know it. And your continued cracks make you look bad, not me. And that's putting it kindly. I could be harsher.

I only spoke up cause it needed to be said. No one else was.

The true sign of a mans character is what he does when he thinks no one is looking.

And you know what? We all pay for such subterfuge. You encouraged him to steal. Period.

So continue to leave your smartass cracks. Like I said, you look the fool when you do. You have no defense for your suggestion.

I have nothing more to say about it. Talk to the hand.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
There is a HUGE difference between doing wrong things in the past and making a right choice in the here and now. Just because people encourage quality moral behaviors does not all of a sudden make them "perfect" or "holier than thou" or whatever other crap people want to fling at such decency.

I have made many many mistakes in my life.. many. But I strive to make better choices today. Will I be perfect today? Nope. That's the difference that's sets the men apart from the boys.. There are those that recognize decent moral behaviors and strive after them. This doesn't mean they are perfect.. They recognize and strive after. The others? They ignore such decent moral behaviors for their own benefit... and then make it "ok" in their own mind. They distract away from their immoral behaviors by saying things like "Oh, and you're perfect?!" It's called a distraction tactic, to take the light off of our own immoral behaviors and place the focus back onto the other person. "You're just judging me! Who died and made you God?" bla bla bla. Say what you want to distract from the matter, but in the end of it all.. the immoral behavior is still there, regardless of how hard you try to sew on fig leaves and hide in the bushes.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Bubu760:
Just leave the battery and let the phone outside (if it doesn't rain, of course :p)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Scuddster:
Just my 2 cents but if anyone is out to cheat anyone, its insurance companies. Why is it that Asurion feels eveyone should pay them yet never pay up on anything. That company is the most useless corrupt garbage. Even to get them to cover legitimate claims takes an act from God.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] suhailtheboss:
If you're within the 14 days put the insurance on it, then file a claim.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spyvie:
I agree. I've always thought of insurance as a form of gambling. And the house is crooked.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
That's not stealing in my eyes. Stealing is taking something that's not yours. This is something else. This is just merely not explaining why your device doesn't work. You have your opinion on the subject and I have mine.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] *Omnipresent*:
Wow....just...wow. After seeing a comment like this, its no wonder the world is going to hell in a handbasket, wearing gasoline drawers. *SMH*:(
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jononioo:
Needless to say, this has turned into a really interesting thread about morality. With that being said...Question? I was planning on returning the phone anyway and exchanging it. At this point, is it immoral for me to return it now b/c of the water damage? In both cases, i was not happy with the phone. However, the unhappiness was caused by the manufacturer and then by me. what a moral dilemma indeed.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ickster:
Sorry.

You made me laugh.

Do whatever floats your boat. Didn't mean to hijack your thread.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Do what you want and don't let anyone's views keep you from doing it. If you feel that you can live with your actions then go right ahead. If your going to lose sleep over of then don't. It is immoral but sometimes you have to look out for number 1.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
There is no doubt it's a immoral thing to do but don't call it something it isn't.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jononioo:
No. Its fine. I don't mind. I think your points are valid. Im just really confused at this point b/c i want to do the right thing, but at the same time i feel that this may be wrong. But im not too sure b/c on thursday, i firmly made up my mind that i was going to return the phone b/c of all the hard freezing and other little annoyances that others complain about as well.

If i get the phone to work again, is it still immoral to return it since its been dropped in the water?

I know it sounds stupid, but i am the kind of person that will loose sleep over something this silly. (well, its not silly, its a $400.00 phone/paperweight)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jononioo:
So... now this is getting really tricky. So, during my last few posts, i hooked my phone up to my vacuum cleaners suction hose and left it on for about 20mins. I put the battery in and the phone is now working. 100% functionality! Im actually quite amazed. For being submerged for 20mins, this thing is operating as if nothing happend. so my question to you guys is this... At this point, is it still immoral to return this phone and exchange it for a new one?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Only if its immoral in your own eyes. Don't let people on some forum make up your mind. Either way you look at it the phone still has water damage even though its working. In the end your the one who has to live with your decision. Nobody here will have to live with it. Personally, I could live with it because I just don't care anymore. Any one of these corporations will **** us over and sell us off like some two bit whore so I say go for it
[T-Mobile LG G2x] r4d14n7:
QFT. I stick with my Christian views and just because corporations do it to us is no reason for us to do it back, but if you were going to return it anyway, I would go ahead and do it. And think about it this way, at least they won't sell your problematic phone off to someone else, eh? Yeah?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ickster:
I'm sorry I said anything.

Now it does become an interesting twist. But me, no. The fact it works now doesn't change much except that it works,

So what if the immersion indicator didn't register? So, it gets refurbed and passed on to one of us? With its rusty contacts. And water where it shouldn't be. I know...this is unlikely.

Sorry, should have got the insurance. I always get the insurance. (Will your homeowners or renters insurance cover it?) But me...no. As far as I'm concerned, there is no halfway being honest. I have two grown children I could not look in the face. I recently had this discussion with my son. There is no grey area to honesty. You either are or you're not.

And if I were to get a label, it would be closer to athiest than non practising. So religion has nothing to do with it.

Should have got the insurance.

Sorry if this isn't what you wanted to hear.

I guess I invite more flaming. Kind of a twist to be vilified for recommending integrity.But you asked.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ickster:
"Any one of these corporations will **** us over and sell us off like some two bit whore......"

I know right?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
If you're conscious is eating at you, don't do it. Let peace be your umpire. So ya, if it's immoral in your own eyes, you already have your answer... You see, you're saying "I was going to change it in anyways.." Well, when I put myself in your shoes... I would ask myself these questions..and these are your personal questions to ask.. not to answer to me or anyone else - Were you TRULY going to bring it back and the decision was made?? Or were you hee-hawing over it, thinking of keeping it and now that you have knowledge that the phone has water damage.. this information pushed you over to a return?

If you had your mind made up to return it, no ifs ands or buts about it.. you were 100% set and you know this in your heart... Then as far as I'm concerned, it's a blessing that the phone is working so that you can return it without a problem.

If your mind was made up to keep it, then I would see that the phone now working as a blessing.. and I'd keep it.

If you were hee-hawing over returning it, then the consideration of returning it should be evaluated. You have to ask yourself why you were considering returning it, what was your motive, why haven't you returned it yet, etc. etc. If you were just considering it.. and NOW because of the water you were pushed in that direction.. Then your motive of the return was pushed to one side of the fence because of the knowledge of the water. Thus, it's the same as the 2nd "IF" above. You'll just be using the water as an excuse to feel better about your choice.

About these corporations doing what they do.. that does not justify doing it too. Otherwise, we are equal immoral agents as they are and we have no right pointing a finger.. 2 wrongs don't make a right. If someone steals from you... Does stealing from them 'all of a sudden' become moral? No, it doesn't.. It's just a way to justify it in our own minds so we feel better about making the immoral choice.

I like what one guy said.. Just don't change what it is. If it's stealing, it's stealing.. If you find stealing to be immoral, then it is immoral. We can dance around it all day long.. justify it.. dress it up and make it look pretty.. but when all is said and done with.. under all the dress-up, it's still stealing.

You sound like a good person to even be considering this.. There are a lot of people out there that wouldn't even bat an eye at an immoral event as long as it profited them in some manner or another. Kudos to you for examining this.

Choose wisely...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] *Omnipresent*:
This whole moral dilemma thing is a joke jononioo. If the g2x cost you $4.00 to replace, would you even bother to try and "return/exchange it? Of course not. You would pay the $4.00 and try to be more careful in the future. If you were a millionaire/billionaire, would try to return/exchange it? Of course not. You would pay the $400 because you can easily afford 10 phones and not think twice about it. The $400 replacement cost is probably gonna sting like a motha aint it? If you answered no to the first 2 questions and yes to the 3rd, then you know that what you are trying to do is wrong.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Suprah:
lol i see some of you are saints in here lol when cellphone companies fuq us over countless times.

replacing water damage stickers is wrong yes

trying to pass off the phone as regularly damaged is wrong yes however, moral dont really apply when it comes to technology when the device with be debugged to see what happened to it in the first place, so its not like they just going to repackage it and sell it to someone else without testing it out first

i say, do what you have to do to get a brand new device
[T-Mobile LG G2x] schmit:
That's fine.. but if you choose to play their game too, don't 'butter up' your actions to make them look better. You know, the "they did it first!!" thing.. you're just trying to make yourself feel better about the immorality of the choice you are making. It's called justification.

That's just childish. You can't sit here and point the finger at these companies while you are choosing to f*** them yourself. Well you can.. and people do. That one is called being a hypocrite.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Suprah:
so if your saying he should tell them the truth and pay even more hundreds to pay and get a new device?

sorry idk about ur holy/law biding thought process, but if i had a opportunity to save myself the hundreds i would try pass it off as regularly damaged but ay guess ill be cool being a hypocrite

point is i can do it and if that happened to me, will do it, im not going to sit there and say welp, ill guess ill tell them the truth and pay more for a new a device.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ickster:
Put it in rice. Sometimes that works.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
It looks like a even split when it comes to returning the device and not saying anything about water damage. Lets stop hijacking this guys thread and let him make his own decision. I'm done voicing my opinion and views. Sorry if I offended anyone with them.

Uncooked rice. If someone puts it in cooked rice, the phone will become all sticky :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Not to mention cooked rice wont pull moisture since its already loaded with it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Nate2:
Also, cover all holes: usb, hdmi, headphones, etc. But this might hinder effective moisture removal.

We don't want a rice-grain stuck in the usb port. And hope the rice grains don't scratch the screen.

Use Jasmine/Basmati rice for some fragrance :), and discard rice after this kind of use.

Sorry if I am stating the obvious :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] notnice564:
ive read almost everyone's post about lieing , stealing and tricking tmobile.yall cut that garbage out yall probably stealing something as i type this. if you can return the phone to tmobile without them checking the water damage and give u a new phone hows that tricking or being dishonest.everybody trying to be all truthfull and isht if that was your phone u spent $500 on or watever u paid for it and that happened with-in the 14 days ur ass would try whatever it is u can try to get back a new phone.

moral of the story is do watever it is u can do to get back a new phone. u spent ur hard earn money to buy it. so what if tmobile loses $500 out of $35billion come on people.
