neocore (with sound) = 35.9

neocore ( no sound ) = 36.3

acctually doktornotor doing that is quite surprising and good too :P keep up ! i hope this lasts longer..;) n im waiting too.. but only for the source code to be released to the public !! :D then the devs will bring out bugless versions !! :D n tons of improvement !! :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] theb3s7:
I've got same scores on neocore..

But on quadrant.. I only get 855

Did you do any OC or something? I really need root :D

It's strange in quadrant - I only get ~30fps on the planets test, I got 60+ with 2.2
[Optimus One, P500, V General] miqutu:
no overclock idk how to do that in 2.3 :d ...
[Optimus One, P500, V General] aragarm:
official rom= crap rom don't waste ur time with this is so slowwwwww
[Optimus One, P500, V General] vador9:
But also perfectly stable and bug free. Remember that we have a phone, not a toy to play with. That's my opinion
[Optimus One, P500, V General] theb3s7:
Stable - yes.

Bug free? No. And not nearly as smooth as noejn's devoid ROM

But it's.. a nice feeling though :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] shotgun32:
Sooooooo official GB rom has coming out or I'm still dreaming?

How was it???? :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] lekhwani:
I also have the same feeling. Lg seems to be downgrading instead of upgrading!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] adrien_razvan:
Hy guys, anyone found out how can we root the new rom? Thanks.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] haoss07:
yes. GB is out in romania V20G
[Optimus One, P500, V General] theb3s7:
Not really... I tried a lot of stuff and nothing so far. Those ads really annoy me..
[Optimus One, P500, V General] shotgun32:
Isn't we should wait for dev like andy mik or franco to make the rom better? ;)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] theb3s7:
Nobody's forcing you to do anything.

I was (and am) eager to see the new official ROM so I installed it.

What you do, is totally up to you.

rofl i have 2.2.2 and it runs better then official GB

but to be fair the official GB is way better then the official Froyo so lets hope devs can make some awesome roms using official GB
[Optimus One, P500, V General] biggiex2:
hi.

i am currently running android 2.2.2, rooted, flashed with dookmatt's kernel and oc'ed to 787 mhz(i'm getting only 596 score in quadrant and i think that's because the low fps in 3d tests...i mean besides the planet test which runs around 40fps the other ones average at about 12-13 fps sometimes lower).

is it worth upgrading to GB through lg pc suite?(i understand no root is available so far) and if i want to upgrade what should i do first? restore nandroid backup? unroot?

thx in advance
[Optimus One, P500, V General] hon kin:
Ah? I scored 744 on antutu , and 463 on quadrant but i'm still on 2.2.2:eek:!

Why some of the scores go up while some go down?:confused:

Quadrant

Froyo 2.2: 400

Now , after update: 2.3.3: 855.

Nice.

Look

Is GSM working in that version?

By when can we expect the kernel sources? Im sure mik,franco,andy,noejn must be having itchy palms :D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] theb3s7:
For now, LG support kinda avoids the question.

Let's wait for monday or tuesday.. Today's week-end and maybe that's why nobody gives us anything related to the subject.

My enquiry:

Their response:

a.k.a. bull****
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mprou:
did you updated baseband etc when you flashed the cooked thing? I'm gonna update via kdz and attempt to cook it to see what happens.

Yay gb is out:D
[Optimus One, P500, V General] lerkin:
No, I did nothing with baseband (I just noobly cooked ROM in the kitchen).

By the way nice avatar..
[Optimus One, P500, V General] biggiex2:
can't anyone give me a response? please? :(
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mprou:
Do not upgrade. Stay with with what you are cause it's better. At least not until sources come out so devs make it as it should be. If you want to experiment ok do it but then you'll have to kdz your way back to 2.2 cause of baseband, root again, install recovery etc etc.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] biggiex2:
thanks for your answer... i have one more question(i know it's offtopic): is this kernel ok or should i try a different one?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] flaviopac:
No problem so far, it runs the new baseband and I experienced better call quality.

You need to flash via russian tool anyway (at least if you come from froyo)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] mprou:
I haven't tried dook's rom with other kernels besides his own but I red at his thread some people had no prob using franco's kernel. In any case do a nand back to be safe and try it out.

Official update released

Android Version 2.3.3

Comp. Number GRI40

LG-P500-V20g.

Found it by mistake after a downgrade to 2.1. Was trying to get back my original 2.2.2. After it finished the update i sow it. The official 2.3.3.

SuperOneClick works 4 root

[Optimus One, P500, V General] alfel:
How about root?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bioan:
If you are familiar with ADB, these are the commands:

adb devices

adb shell

echo 1 > /data/local/lge_adb.conf
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Arjen:
And after those commands I used SuperOneclick and used pneuter to install SuperUser and Busybox. The Gingerbreak-way caused FC on su.

After that I upgraded SuperUser via Market and all works fine now.

Other ways to install SuperUser didn't work correctly.

Now we have to wait for kernelsources :D

After playing with it I plan to go back to devoid again till we have full CM7-support (working bt-sound etc.)

Yes you can install recommended is , CWM, install it by downloading Rom Manager from the market, then flashed CWM from there.

The screen filter app is reported to drain battery. Google it and you will see. I can confirm personally that I was seeing drain with it compared to without. It will not show under the batter tracker.
[Nexus S General] thiagodark:
Danmit...
[Nexus S General] RogerPodacter:
Screen filter on the nexus one helped a little. On min brightness an all black screen pulls 100 mA, and with screen filter on additional 30% pulled 85-90 mA. Wasn't a huge difference really.
[Nexus S General] NYYFan325:
I use screen filter and after a 9 hour day at work (phone unplugged for ~10hours) which I text, browse, and make calls on my phone I usually leave ~60-70% left on the battery.
[Nexus S General] obsanity:
CM7 will let you customize the screen brightness from 1 to 255. The phone screen doesn't show all colors past 4 though.
[Nexus S General] thiagodark:
can you point where i can change it?!
[Nexus S General] mr.jcarter:
What do you mean past 4?
[Nexus S General] obsanity:
On your CM7 installed phone go to: Menu-Settings-CyanogenMod Settings-Display-Automatic backlight

You have to choose automatic screen brightness adjustment for this to work.

In lights levels section you can enable custom screen brightness levels. Make sure your "Screen dim level" setting is set to 1 to be able to go all the way to setting of 1. Now, go and choose "Edit other levels". In here you can specify, based on light sensor value, the screen lux value you wish to have along with the button value (the led button lights) my buttons don't seem to dim so I'm not sure if your device will. All values go from 1-255 (as long as you changed screen dim level to 1).

Anyway, play around in it and you can set your phone to do all the screen brightness adjustments for you as dim and as bright as you want.

Now, on my super AMOLED screen, when I pick anything below setting of 4 the screen looses some colors so that's why there is no point of setting it any lower.

Also, my light sensor has only 8 stages of lux recognition. They are 10,160,225,320,640,1280,2600,10240 (but 3000 seems to be the max you can set so the last will just max out anyway).

So in order to fake other numbers in between, the CM team came up with a filter which moves around at a specified interval from one setting to another. You can enable that filter at the very top option before you choose "Edit other levels..."

Have fun.
[Nexus S General] obsanity:
One other thing to add is that this can save a tone of battery as well as go easy on your eyes at night. You just have to figure out what the best settings are for you. Once you play with it for a while you'll figure it out. It took me a few days to come up with settings that work.

Hi guys. Need some help.

This afternoon my phone began force closing random applications (widget locker, sms stuff, etc). When I got home, I attempted a restore using ROM manager and using my last (and only) saved restore.

Now when the phone attempts to reboot, it just goes back to ClockwordMod Recovery.

I've tried to use the "backup and restore" option in there as well, but aside from it saying sd-ext.img missing at the end of the process, the restore seems to go as planned.

I know this seems general, but I'm kind of at wit's end trying to figure this out.

Thanks in advance.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pistol44:
So I had to hard reset after my push notifications suddenly stopped work 3 months ago. Wasn't thrilled about spending hours reinstalling apps, configuring settings and restoring bookmarks.

So anyway today my push notifications broke a second time. I refuse to lose everything again and redo it all from scratch. I'm been searching a while looking for workarounds. I found a fix by making a couple easy regedits: http://wmpoweruser.com/how-to-fix-l...a-hard-reset-only-developer-unlocked-devices/

But the problem is I need a dev unlocked device first. Unfortunately I have already applied NoDo to my HD7 a month ago or so. I found the following post but not sure if it will work in my case so haven't tried it yet: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1101344

Anyone know if I'm out of luck or if there is an actual way to fix this with out hard resetting OR a way to still dev unlock?

Thanks everyone!

If you want the rom WITHOUT custom kernel just flash this with xrecovery without any patches:

But if you want to use the rom WITH custom kernel:

custom kernel works only with baseband 52 & 49

you should flash the baseband 52 with flashtools & this file with xrecovery:

[G2 and Desire Z General] htc420:
So 3 days ago I bought a brand new G2 off cragislist (still had all the peel off stickers) for 200. The guy said he had it replaced by t-mobile cause his old phone didn't send mms or something. His daughter bought him a newer phone so he decided to sell this one. Anyway, he gave me his old battery and battery cover since tmo didn't include it.

when I first got it the battery life was terrible, and I didn't even have the data plan hooked up yet. After connecting to my wifi and surfing/downloading apps, about 10% drained in less than a few minutes. I let it drop to 30% and charged it fully (first time). The first thing I noticed was that it was kinda "stuck" at 100% for a while... then it dropped to about 96% and started draining from there. I then made sure to turn all the data and wifi off and went to sleep when it was at 78%. Woke up 8 hours later and it dropped to 71.

Now my question is, should I have charged it all the way, then played with it til it died, then recharge it again? Or is that unnecessary since the battery is old anyway and it doesn't matter if its a new phone?

After a few more charges, it seems like the battery is a bit better but I'd still like for it to last longer. I still feel like I'm getting inaccurate readings though. Still gets stuck at 100%, then at 70%. Should I let it die all the way to calibrate the battery?

Also, I heard rooting the phone and flashing the cm7 rom will improve battery life, is that true? Cause I had the mytouch3G a while ago so I'm sorta familiar with the rooting process but I didn't notice any battery improvements.

Thanks.

edit: the phone came with the 2.3.3 firmware.
[G2 and Desire Z General] eschnit81:
The age of the battery is irrelevant since the phone is new, and the phone calibrates itself based on how you use it to give the best possible battery life, aside from the occasional run-away app/process. It is always best to take the battery all the way dead and fully charge a few times (like 3-5) to get the most out of it. This has been my experience, and what Tmo recommends when you buy any new android phone from them.
[G2 and Desire Z General] carquote:
I contacted HTC to inquire how they recommend the battery be charged. Below is their response:

A lithium-ion cell phone battery needs to be conditioned when brand new. For the first three charge cycles, fully charge the battery overnight and allow it to fully discharge before recharging. Extensive overcharging may damage a Lithium-ion battery or if it is left on the charger for more than 24 hours.

Lithium-ion batteries operate more poorly at low temperatures. Temperatures below freezing can cause the battery to lose its discharge levels and sputter out more quickly. While these batteries do not suffer from memory effect, they should be fully charged and discharged every 30 uses.
[G2 and Desire Z General] rommy0515:
I've got a G2 with the 2.3.3 firmware, just received as an insurance replacement last week.

I can confirm that the battery life is appallingly bad. I used to go through 75% of one battery in a day, I'm going through two batteries daily now.

This beta build is a POS!
[G2 and Desire Z General] htc420:
So is it too late to condition the battery since I've been using it for a few days now?

For those that are rooted and running a custom ROM, did you notice any improvements in battery life? I'd imagine the power management is better and that getting rid of all the tmo bloatware would make it easier on the batt.
[G2 and Desire Z General] htc420:
Glad I'm not the only one with this issue. What firmware were you running on your old phone? And would I be able to downgrade?
[G2 and Desire Z General] rommy0515:
I was running CM 7.0.3 with fairly heavy daily usage. Have you noticed any other problems? I've noticed that apps don't show up in the app drawer unless you powercycle after download. Also, the browser seems to crash a lot, and it isn't playing well with the Amazon appstore. (Most of my apps that I had acquired on Amazon apparently can't be downloaded.)
[G2 and Desire Z General] ste1164:
There is a known battery drain issue on gingerbread for all phones. Also lithium ion batteries do not need to be discharged as this damages the battery itself. They are smart enough not to not require calibration.
[G2 and Desire Z General] rommy0515:
Incidentally, if the phone was brand new, never been used, it probably shows in the "Device Model Warranty Tool" as a new phone with a twelve month manufacturer warranty and a three month accessories warranty. (The DMWT is an internal tool the TMO reps use to verify your warranty status)

You should be able to get an extra battery just by calling up and telling them that the battery you have dies very quickly. (All batteries have a 90 day warranty on them, and they don't require you to send back the old battery they just send you a replacement.) Tell them you've tried the master reset and playing around with the display settings and all that jazz. The trick is, whatever they suggest, just tell them you've already done it and sound convincing.

If the rep gives you a hard time, just call back and tell the next rep that your phone is randomly powering off and when they ask you if you've tried another battery, tell them no, because you don't have another battery to test. Lol, it's best if you sound kind of confused when they ask you that question :) That should lead them to a battery replacement on their troubleshooting flow.

Source: I worked for TMO in customer service and technical support for three years.
[G2 and Desire Z General] htc420:
I don't have any problems with apps not showing up. My browser is just fine, it hasn't crashed once on me. Lastly, I don't use Amazon for apps, so I wouldn't know.
[G2 and Desire Z General] htc420:
Thanks for the suggestion man! I'll call them right now. :D

Do I need to give them the serial numbers, etc on the back of the phone or will they see it in their system? cause I have a hard plastic case on it and it's a bit of a pain to remove it.
[G2 and Desire Z General] rommy0515:
Tell them that you aren't calling from the phone, otherwise they'll probably give you a hard time and try and get you on a different phone for "troubleshooting."

It might be easier if you waited about three days before you call, make a few phone calls with the new phone so that it shows up on their system. (Phones show up on the warranty system after the system "tags" them and you have to make a phone call for that to happen)

You can always get the IMEI number by hitting "*#06#" (no quotation marks) from within your dialer.

And don't tell them you bought it off Craigslist. Tell them you got it brand new for full retail at one of their third party dealer locations. (Car Toys, Jacks Cell Phone Emporium, The Phone store, whatever, it doesn't matter what you tell them, they won't look it up)

(Just in case you already called and they gave you a hard time, just call back a couple of times with some complicated troubleshooting questions, dropped calls are a good one for this and get the memo "buried" then call back and try again for the battery.)
[G2 and Desire Z General] rommy0515:
Oh, wait, belay my last. Lol, sorry, I just realized I might be about to lead you astray.

You need to wait 14 days before you try this. If you do it before 14 days are up they're going to tell you to return the phone to the place you got it. They only do battery replacements after the "buyer's remorse" period is up.

(14 days everywhere in the US except for CA, where it's 30)

My bad! :)

(Again, if you already called and got the runaround, no worries, you can still make it happen, just call back a few times get them to troubleshoot some dropped calls or "dead spots" around your house, SMS problems, go over your bill a few times or whatever comes to mind, just so that whatever notes the rep left get buried in the memo list, then call back after the buyer's remorse period is up and go for the battery replacement)

Edit: I just realized you're in CA. You're going to have to wait 30. Sorry bro :(
[G2 and Desire Z General] htc420:
Damn, oh well.

Btw, I googled "2.3.3 battery drain" and read up on some Nexus One users complaining about it. Pretty much all of them said that when they open up "Battery use" it tells them that the Android OS is using anywhere from 35-50% of the battery. But on mine, the display is using it the most. Second, it's voice calls and then Cell Standby. The OS isn't even on the list! Is this normal?

Are you still on Gingerbread btw? I want to downgrade to Froyo until this all gets fixed.
