Actually, it IS the solution. The phone has some issue when connecting and obtaining an IP address. If you install a system profiler, you will see that when WiFi is powering up, and when the phone requests an IP from the router, CPU usage goes to 100% on BOTH cores and stay there until the connection is made, then everything settles down.

The reason this "fix" works, is because when your screen goes to sleep, the default behavior is to turn off WiFi, which means when you wake it up, you get that CPU spike again. Setting it to never sleep, means you will only get that spike when the initial connection is made (when you first turn on wifi).

This problem was driving me nuts, but i haven't had an issue since disabling wifi sleep.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mobilehavoc:
The OP I believe is talking about another issue that I experienced recently. For me it starts after the phone has been up for like 2 days or so. Loading a web page is stutterific and slow as well as scrolling, animations. If I turn off Wifi, it works perfectly again on 3G/4G. I think there's a memory leak somewhere or there's some issue that's causing this. I'm going to drop my wifi from 802.11n to 802.11g for a few days to see if that helps. I have my Wifi set to never sleep since the day I bought the phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] propain4444:
How are you connecting to N? I have a Dual Band router, but my phone can only see the network i have configured for wireless-g, the n network does not show up (it's set to broadcast, etc...) so i can only connect via g to begin with.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Seanathan:
BECAUSE I was having the same issue you guys are having and doing that fixed it. Everytime the phone goes into sleep and wakes it will try to reconnect to wifi. Just try it and if it doesn't work for you it doesn't work. But for me, with the same issues, it worked.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] blitz911:
That's exactly what happens to me since i use the power control widget to turn on/off wifi. Not a biggie but slightly noticeable...and i do have the wifi sleep policy set to never.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] artstar56:
Your not alone.

It's because when certain phones connect the internet, many processes start up and that causes lag on certain phones that have a small or old processors

eg. A quad core phone will not lag, as it has more processors threaded, but a single core will lag as it has only one processor to use and therefore will lag when more processes start up.

If you use a different launcher then you may lag less

Hope this helps

I know there's a few reviews out already. But I figured another opinion was a good thing.

Video Game Pros Review.
[HTC Sensation] rp-x1:
Interesting that they say that all the fluffy bits in Sense 3.0 are great and note the lock screen as a nuisance. Every other review I've read have said they fluffy bits are rubbish and the lock screen is the best bit of Sense 3.0!
[HTC Sensation] BarryH_GEG:
It doesn't even look like a real hands-on review. Everything said seems like a re-wording of content taken from other review sites. Probably just a content farm site.

Hi everybody,

i don't know why, but a cannot charge my hd2 when the phone is off. If i plug in the cable, the phone starts by himself...

can anyone help me?

thanks in advance :)
[HD2 General] Kailkti:
If you are using MAGLDR, it is natural and you cannot fix it. You are using MAGLDR if when the phine boots up and you're holding the power button, a menu appears.

You can use cLk if you wish for it to charge when off.

$1 gets you a reply

How does he pay you??

why ?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] k0zmic:
No. It's processor and screen are too low to run it. There's probably not enough RAM either.

[Flipout and Charm General] spence91:
Hi guys, the flipout is now very cheap indeed in the UK (it's around £50 with Orange PAYG). I managed to lose my previous phone under a train and so I've been looking at this.

Is it worth picking up this phone? I gather from looking at the posts that it can be unlocked and rooted.

Some (noob) questions:

1) Can the phone be unlocked for free? Can it be done by debranding it?

2) Can you install a different launcher? A search on the forum doesn't say anything about changing the launcher.

3) Can you get rid of Motoblur? i've never used it but it sounds ****.

Thanks in advance guys
[Flipout and Charm General] Schallstoerer:
1. dont know!

2. Launcher Pro is very nice. many thinks can be changed and its very fast!

3. dont try the motoblur free versions of the flipout..there are many bugs with connection and akku standby! i have the italian rom installed with the update of 1.19.2 and i ignored motoblur. i have deleted all widget with motoblur and use the widget of the launcher pro which can also connect to facebook, twitter...and in my opinion your contacts will be clean..if you use motoblur it will add facevook contacts to your normal conntacts...
[Flipout and Charm General] breakingspell:
Yeah, LauncherPro and ADW work perfectly for me, just make sure to delete all of Motoblur's widgets and ****. Juicedefender Ultimate helps as well, for saving battery.
[Flipout and Charm General] chaos_xie:
I got some issue with Launch pro.

When I press home button to return from some apps, the screen turn black and the status bar rotate to the side of the screen, and after probably 300ms, it turns back.

Not a big issue, but pretty annoy. Using ADW launcher without any issue. Much smoother than the stock launcher.
[Flipout and Charm General] ghostwheel:
I'm back to the stock Launcher. My problem was that with any other Launcher, from time to time a process called "android.process.acore" would start eating cpu.
[Flipout and Charm General] ghostwheel:
Could you explain a bit more? What are the problems? I have the moto free firmware installed. Problems I heard about are

1. something about not using all channels, which can be solved by modifying a file on /system/etc

2. Whenever you install a new firmware, the battery meter gets out of sync and need to be reset. There is an app on the market for doing that.

Are these the problems you are referring to, or are there others?

Thanks!
[Flipout and Charm General] Schallstoerer:
@ ghostwheel

ya, these are the problems! and you´re right..it can be fixed. i only wanted to say that you can use the original firmeware without motoblur by ignoring it. so you dont have to fix anything and you can use the 1.19.2 update. sry for my bad english =/
[Flipout and Charm General] Schallstoerer:
Hey ghostwheel

if tried the motoblur free version now.

to use alle awailable channels i have to modifi the baseband file, right!?

which app do you mean for reseting the battery?
[Vibrant General] jwleonhart:
So ok a bit of a story but maybe someone can help me out here.

So I gave my girlfriend a vibrant, and unlocked it for ATT and threw Bionix on there for her.

Well, I then got it back from her after a long fight over how it was her birthday present and after our 5 years together she had the nerve not to even pick up her birthday card or other presents I had gotten her... I had gotten her the phone a few weeks early mind you just to make her happy because things were going fine.

Well, i'm almost certain she's been talking to someone else, but before she gave me the phone back she was smart enough to wipe the phone and put it back to the way stock Bionix is. I'm not sure how she wiped it or what she did but is there anyway I might be able to restore the phone so I could do some snooping?

I'd like to know honestly if i'm being lied to... so if anyone could help, i'd appreciate it.
[Vibrant General] EricDET:
Lol... This made my morning. BTW.... No.
[Vibrant General] jwleonhart:
Hey it was worth a shot, and it's better to have proof then to be lied to constantly. Like I said 5 years, so it's not like this is some whatever girl, and i'm just curious to know if she's doing something behind my back... But she was smart enough to delete anything she could get her hands on it seems, pictures, everything
[Vibrant General] movieaddict:
Daamm! Sorry total bummer
[Vibrant General] nbhnohome:
Girls are COLD BLOODED MAMMALS.

If you cannot make her feel secure, she'll let you go easier than you can ever imagine.
[Vibrant General] jwleonhart:
lol thanks for the words of wisdom there. She may not be lying but just recent events have led me to believe there is something going on on the side lines, and honestly if thats the case i'd rather just know and be on my way.

But I also don't want to accuse and then ruin what is left of what we still have haha.
[Vibrant General] mugenfiji0327:
This is a ****ty situation sir, but unless there was a backup made, then there is now way you can restore it. You might check to see if there is a backup. If she was smart enough to delete it, she may have been smart enough to make a backup just in case the phone messed up for some reason.

Need a little help. "Cannot download. The content is not supported on this phone"

I did a search and did not find an answer. Every time I try to download from XDA I get this message and the download quits. If I download to my PC I am able to transfer it and it all is good. I am sure one of you android guru's can help me out ( I still consider myself a newb). I am probably missing something simple. It would really be nice to be able to download directly to the phone.

I am running the stock froyo, rooted with a couple of minor tweaks and the typical software, Rom Manager, SetCPU, Juice Defender, etc.

Thanks guys.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Ryanmcleod1:
Try downloading a Download Manager from the android market. It usually does the trick cause the phone dosnt support downloading certain files with extentions out of the box so u have to download a manager for it to work.

[G2 and Desire Z General] creepinm3:
HEy guys I've owned my G2 since Nov. of 2010 and it has the battle scars to show it. My battery door looks like CRAP. OEM battery still doesn't last me long and I have a small blemish on the top of the phone. Not to mention my hinge is loose as hell. So I devised a plan. I am going to "upgrade" my G2. Hinge and all. In total it has cost me $58.98 for the whole process.

- $2.45 for Screen protector (anti-glare / anti finger-print) 3 pack

- $29.99 OEM HTC Evo Shift 4G Battery (1500MAh)

- $16.00 OEM Battery Door Cover

- $2.84 Premium Hard Rubberized case (Black)

- $5.78 Springs for the Hinge

- $1.92 Car Charger. (Yeah I know)

But all of this from Amazon excluding the springs. I will post a link for those later when I locate it. But for $58.98 for a "overhaul" that doesn't seem too bad? I decided to buy this whole thing at one time so I know it may take a few weeks for the parts the come but hey! Doesn't hurt to make my phone look brand new?

Just wanted to share this info for those who may have been interested in doing specific things to their phone and money is a issue.
[G2 and Desire Z General] lawalty:
Ive heard that the touch screen for the G2 is Gorilla Glass, so since there is no scratches on it yet, there shouldnt be anytime soon (as long as you take care of it). I done the whole screen protector thing, and after awhile, it takes away from the beauty of the phone. i know - it's my opinion.

I have done the hinge spring replacement, which works EXCELLENT! The best damn thing i did for my G2! it will take you a full afternoon to do-it yourself, but it's SOOOO worth it.

I also replaced my stock battery with a Mugen Power 1800mAh Extended Battery. This is such a worthy investment. It gave me another 5 hours to my phone. I'm a HEAVY user (GPS, Navigation, games, internet, texting, email). I purchased the battery from the source company instead of depending on a third party company.
[G2 and Desire Z General] creepinm3:
My screen is good but it seems to be impossible to keep people away from my phone. I am getting mine form HTC. So it is worth it to do the Hinge + Spring mod?
[G2 and Desire Z General] lawalty:
Yep! Well worth it! Just follow the tutorial HERE. It might be scary, but after completion. I can now pickup my phone by the screen alone, and it will not open. I can also pick the phone up from the back, and even shake it, and it still wont open. It must have been a design flaw or something, but my phone when new had a very week spring.

If its impossible to keep people away from you phone, just keep a few extra polishing cloths around to get rid of all the fingerprints. I personally just dont like screen protectors in general.. i think they take away from the aesthetics of the phone. I had a Vibrant before I upgraded to a G2, and from the first day, I put on a screen protector to prevent scratches. Well, after awhile the screen protector on the phone started to look like CRAP. I mean WHY?.. i asked myself WHY? I figured there were a team of highly paid engineers which selected the type of screen for our phones that wont scratch under normal to heavy use.. Of course there is always the exceptions, like if you work in a job with a lot of sand around. Sand is the enemy to our little touch screens, even Gorilla Glass can't hold up to sand. Anyway, please excuse my rant - it is my opinion.
[G2 and Desire Z General] creepinm3:
Its greatly appreciated. I shall keep that in mind. I eventually take them off after about a month.
[G2 and Desire Z General] redpoint73:
Sounds like your experience was with a cheap screen protector. I use Bodyguardz, and you can't tell its there, by look or feel. Its been in place for 6 months now, and no visible scratches, and very fingerprint resistant. But cheap protectors (3 pack for $2.45 the OP mention probably apply) do scratch easily and attract fingerprints and smudges like crazy. The included protector with my old AT&T (Tilt Pro 2) lasted about a month and looked like crap, like you said.

Of course, its completely a matter of personal preference. But some people on here have had scratches from what they claim is normal use. For me, I'd rather put on a protector (a good quality one, that doesn't affect the look or feel of the phone), rather then get a scratch and wish you had used a protector.
[G2 and Desire Z General] creepinm3:
There is a screen protector that's worth $21 at BestBuy called the Zagg Shield. Is that even worth the price? Looks flimsy
[G2 and Desire Z General] creepinm3:
I believe its Bodyguardz. Its stored under my amazing cart. I will have to check when I get home.
[G2 and Desire Z General] redpoint73:
I doubt it. Bodyguardz (dry apply, screen only type - not full body) goes 2 for $15 plus shipping. So unless you found some smoking deal, it seems unlikely they are going 3 for $2.45.

http://www.bodyguardz.com/t-mobile-g2-dry-apply-cases-screen-protectors-covers-shields-skins-films.html

If it is in fact Bodyguardz, let me know where you found that deal!
[G2 and Desire Z General] creepinm3:
This whole post comes from Amazon. Its the only place I feel you can get a good deal on accessories to be honest or OEM
[G2 and Desire Z General] redpoint73:
If you look around the Accessories subforum, you will find good things said about Zagg. While I haven't tried Zagg myself, I think they use a very similar material to Bodyguardz, if I'm not mistaken. The material of Bodyguardz is thin and very pliable/flexible, but still offers great protection.

But $21 is a bit pricey to me for just the screen protector, and only one of them.
[G2 and Desire Z General] jRi0T68:
I've got a zagg on my vibrant, put one on my wife's g2, one on the way for my son's LG Optimus. Best screen protector ever. Lifetime warranty, install on The Wife's G2 took 3 minutes (Thank God I got it right the first time!), neither of us notice they're there. IMO, worth $20.
[G2 and Desire Z General] creepinm3:
Hmm, I shall see about one of these.

-Kiyo
[G2 and Desire Z General] LikeaG2root:
I have no idea why a screen protecter is needed for a G2? Especially if one uses any kind of protector casing. I have never used a screen protector and my phone has fallen off a moving car, dropped on floor a few times, used on the beach numerous times,and in out of my pockets. Not one scratch to my screen. Screen protector is a waste of money.
[G2 and Desire Z General] lawalty:
Here here! Totally agree!
[G2 and Desire Z General] slapshot30:
I agree with redpoint on this one. Although you may feel your screen is indestructible at this point, it really isn't. Just one scratch from a random thing and you'll be wishing you had a screen protector. Better safe than sorry, I'll pay that 15 bucks so I never get a scratch that will annoy me the rest of the phone's life.

I have a high quality screen protector on my Tilt2 (can't remember if it's Zagg or Bodyguardz). Some say that these nicer ones have a rubbery tacky feel about them and take away from the slickness of the screen. I must agree with that, the one I have is a bit rubbery. Most people on these forums hold the Clarivue protectors highly though. They say they have no rubbery feel and take nothing from the screen. They have many different variations of the protectors too.

Knife vs G2 glass screen...

[G2 and Desire Z General] LGS1231:
It is just hard to scratch the G2 glass but definitely not impossible. My first G2 somehow managed to have two fine scratches on the screen, so I knew I wanted a screen protector for my second G2. I used a Crystal Clear one before and liked it until I felt a matte finished anti-glare one. I started trashing the crystal clear one that I had on, saying that it would attract too much fingerprint and face oil. I love the anti-glare screen protector and I love the way it feels. It does take away from the screen a little but not that much.

IMO, a full rehaul of your phone could also consist of a new housing. I just took a look on eBay and the price is insane! So maybe just throwing on a case so you can forget about any aesthetic flaws that you phone may have.

But I definitely think you should do the spring/hinge fix. I think that in itself will have you satisfied with your phone! Good luck!
[G2 and Desire Z General] redpoint73:
While fun for shock value, and possibly a decent simulation of having the phone in your pocket with your keys, there are a great many things that are harder than steel on Moh's scale, that your phone might come into contact with. Plus, there are many common types of glass treatments and coatings that resist scratches from a knife, so again, the demonstration is really not all that meaningful.
[G2 and Desire Z General] redpoint73:
Exactly. Many of these same things were being said back when I was on my old HTC Kaiser. People said it did just fine without a screen protector. I took my protector off, and it did seem to do fine for a few months. But over time, I noticed fine scratches developing, and one day got a huge gouge. I really wished I had stuck with a protector. That wasn't Gorilla Glass, but it seems that some people are having similar experiences on the G2 regardless.

My Bodyguardz protector did seem to have a slightly tacky feel at first. Really only noticeable when trying to swipe across the screen quickly (mostly while playing games). But this actually seemed to go away after a couple weeks for some reason, and it feels nice and smooth to me now.

To me, the look and feel of a good protector is not perceptible (versus no protector), and its worth using one. But I can certainly understand if somebody that is more perceptive or picky than me, may prefer to go without.
[G2 and Desire Z General] ihakim:
I have a screen protector from bestskinsever.com highly recommend it. I've gone through two since I bought the phone in october 2010. First one got gouged by a sharp metal edge and saved my screen from scratches or blemishes. Second one has been on for a few months now and still looks brand new. I'm really anal about my electronics and have been using that brand for all of my electronic devices

I know there is a hack for it to be enabled, and I know that Honeycomb 3.1 has this built-in, but I want to make sure that it comes on the XOOM before I buy it. Meaning, can I get a Micro-USB to USB adapter and use things like USB Mouse and flash drive?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jase33:
USB host is native to Honeycomb 3.1. You will need a USB host cable or the Motorola camera connection cable. Most adapters do not have all 5 pins wired out to enable host mode recognition from the xoom. But yes, it works out of the box.
