500mb is pretty standard, unless you're with Three (which I never will be again). It's T-Mobile's 'unlimited' package, which is 500mb fair usage for file downloads, and unlimited browsing/email. I'm on 500mb with Orange on my Desire at the moment and I rarely get near the limit (use wifi most of the time).

Not sure you understand that exclusive agreements are per-territory, ie. in the US it's only available with Sprint. Why would a company restrict their product to only one supplier worldwide, when that supplier can't sell outside the US? lol Vodafone UK has already confirmed it will be supplying the Evo 3D, the others will probably all follow suit.
[LG Optimus 3D] peacekeeper05:
Im actually impressed by the 2D screen LG O3D has. I was expecting a normal lcd screen that will not boost too much colors because of the stereoscopic film on top of the screen but to my surprise the 2d is even better than Super LCDs found on htc phones. Its more vibrant and colorful. :) you can notice it especially whwn playing games.
[LG Optimus 3D] mad_sunday:
Have to agree about the 2D clarity, it's very bright and clear. I suppose we should have expected this from one of the worlds top TV display manufacturers? I STILL cannot believe how inexpensive this phone is on contract in the UK, it's an absolute bloody BARGAIN! :-)

[LG Optimus 3D] hefonthefjords:
you've got the t-mobile deal wrong.

the 500mb fair use only applies to streaming videos.

i routinely use between 7-8gb a month on my t-mobile contract and have never heard a peep from them.

i didnt know someone had confirmed the evo 3d for the uk. thats pretty cool. more 3d users means more youtube 3d content to see.
[LG Optimus 3D] typhun666:
Recently got the Lg optimoose;) really enjoying it, as its new tho lack of kernels etc for it as of yet, really interested in product testing the Evo3d tho this looks fantastic as well think im just going to get both, think a plus point for the HTC will be that alot of devs will develop for this lets hope us LG fans don't get left behind because of a different logo (LG) so far tho LG is fantastic.

im going to vote LG optimus for now until i have fully tested the evo3d playing around on my mates for 20 minutes wasn't enough but i feel LG's 3d'ness' was better than the HTc's. also got my contract on Orange sounds better than the T-Mobile deal 900mins 3000texts 750mb net, 3gb Btopenzone, £35 a month
[LG Optimus 3D] TheOnly1:
The price is really amazing. In Bulgaria the O3D is MUCH cheaper that the HTC Sensation and SGS2. Apparently LG are trying to catch up with the competition with lower prices and innovative technologies. The O2X is also very cheap when you think of what it offers.
[LG Optimus 3D] l0nz:
I absolutely agree, and I absolutely love LG for it!

After spending nearly 2 years stuck with an Omnia HD at £30 pcm (great hardware at the time, crippled by Symbian crap) before I could finally borrow a Desire for a few months, there's no way I wanted another 2 year contract, but all the 18 month contracts were way too expensive for the Sensation and Galaxy 2. Thank god for LG, still can't quite believe that the market's first 3D phone is so much cheaper than the above 2D phones.

Even without the 3D the Optimus is a competitive package.
[LG Optimus 3D] daGUCCI:
so I received optimus 3d today, display doesn't slide as I wanted, its becouse of display or it's becouse new and not 'slippery' enough?

anyways, how about you guys, will/have you attached protector on your LG Optimus 3D?
[LG Optimus 3D] TheOnly1:
Actually the O3D has a better dual core CPU and much speedier memory that the competition. The only "disatvantage" is that is has only 512 RAM but then again Android doesn't really need more. My O3D still has 120+ MB free RAM with several apps running in the background.
[LG Optimus 3D] Masinac:
Mine too :D it's a fast phone and everything runs smooth :)
[LG Optimus 3D] daGUCCI:
can any1 recommend me good loader or keyboard, becouse standart LG keyboard kinda...suck.
[LG Optimus 3D] wingz85:
SWYPE!!!!!!!
[LG Optimus 3D] daGUCCI:
swype isn't keyboard, it's function which allows you to drag between letters to make word, is that right?
[LG Optimus 3D] Renegade_Rulez:
Swiftkey X is great! and at the moment the beta is free :)

Very good prediction and also possible to have cursor keys.
[LG Optimus 3D] bolinao:
I use FlexT9 keyboard,its brilliant,even has speech to text,which surprisingly is quite accurate,also has swype which is the best in all the swype keyboards i have tried.Also it is free.

[LG Optimus 3D] Masinac:
I get used to HTC_IME and here is it for our resolution HTC_IME
[LG Optimus 3D] daGUCCI:
will try it out.
[LG Optimus 3D] daGUCCI:
as far as I know HTC has nice app which allows you to locate your phone via satalite, is it possible to do so with LG optimus 3d if in case you lost it?
[LG Optimus 3D] peacekeeper05:
There are tons of apps like that in the market. Most are even free. :) some even have better security features than the htc app
[LG Optimus 3D] daGUCCI:
could you give me some example? :/

btw has anyone else getting problem connect phone to PC and update it, it all the time says that theres problem with communication between PC & phone :/

I downloaded latest usb drivers and that lg update tool
[LG Optimus 3D] Ganjamulla:
I opted for the O3D as well. dont regret it for a second. only question on my mind is, there was so much hype about this 'tri-dual' thing, howcome nobody mentions it in the reviews? or is it just a gimmick? anybody have any information on this hardware innovation?
[LG Optimus 3D] snowing:
This is because most reviewers and audiences only look at "numbers" instead of the real tech behind the scene.. it's like comparing Intel cpu with AMD cpu.. they can be listed with same GHz but perform quite different.. It looks like this kind of situation starts to appear in mobile as well.
[LG Optimus 3D] daGUCCI:
since HTC EVO 3D have reached UK now too, which really is the best?
[LG Optimus 3D] offenberg:
I haven't tested the e3d, but I own both the sensation and the o3d. And I can tell you that I like the o3d a lot better. It feels way faster in overall performance. Imagine what the o3d will be like when it gets 2.3! I'm thinking about selling my sensation, because I use my o3d all the time. Love it.
[LG Optimus 3D] jordanprudent:
Comparing the lg and sensation I would vote on the lg being the winner.

Saying that I still rate the sensation as the best rounded phone on today's market and the lg being more of a niche.

If your willing to take the plunge the phone is more than rewarding, good speed, 3d is excellent with a large viewing angle and best of all is the 2d to 3d for films and pictures which will be enhanced my lgs update allowing that to be brought to more aspects of the phone.

I for one enjoy the 3d even though mine is slow as hell from time to time using adw ex launcher (Proberbly due to the amount of texts etc).

The reviews for the phone from endgadet etc are pretty poor. 3/5 on average. But as I say to everyone who says it's a gimmick. OK so it's 3d, you don't use it what do you end with? A top of the range phone delivering lightning speed, great screen good game support, media support and camera all with the added dimension. Why get a s2 or sensation when they do the same without that extra wow factor?

LG is onto a winner, if developer support blossoms this will be one of the best phones to arrive until we hit quad core.

As for it being cheap, it is now. I got mine day of release, £45 a month 18 month contract with £80 for the phone, that's more than any Iphone or android.

Anyone who isn't a mug though can get one for great value now.

Better 3D on the O3D

Just looking at 3D photographs from both devices, I'd have to go with the quality of 3D photos on the O3D, hands down. 3D was what I was after with this phone.

It's got mobile 3D imagery down to a science, and it is a complete pleasure to view videos and photos on, as well as play games.

I've been spending a lot of time looking at images on Phereo and you can really tell the difference. O3D photos are much clearer and the 3D is a lot more fine-tuned.

I got my O3D for 589. The GSM Evo 3D is still well over 600.

I am so happy with this phone and I don't have a single regret.
[LG Optimus 3D] dopeypopey123:
the htc is already out right now in the uk !!!

sellling it in carphone warehouse!

but i would still choose the o3d after using both !!!
[LG Optimus 3D] mancuk29:
EVO 3D doesnt allow portrait 3d as it tells you to bog off ...... ive got the evo 3d and have just ordered the optimus 3d because the battery life is dire (i know optimus 3d isnt much better) ... the software is glitchy (keeps crashing) and the 3d isnt that good its fuzzy at best of times ... ive ordered off amazon so im gonna compare both before i decide ....... but im hoping optimus 3d is better that the evo ... from quadrant scores it seems to be because the evo 3d doesnt even score 2000 .. i get around 1930 ... which is crap for a 1gb of ram dual core phone and this is down to the sense ui ..... please optimus 3d be better i want 3d but didnt like the optimus ...
[LG Optimus 3D] MadCobbler:
Personally I would go with the O3D every time because if its true that the next Google phone is gonna have the OMAP4 chipset, it means that they will almost definately be a few developers for it and that can only mean good things for us. Plus the developer for CM7 on the O3D has said that taking away the 3D stuff, that it is probably the best phone he's ever worked with.

I haven't got 1 complaint with it (not now I've got a custom rom on it anyway) and I don't personally think that the battery life is that bad on it, I normally get a full day out of it with moderate usage which is about the same as the Optimus 2X I had before.

As far as pictures and videos go... again no complaints. I personally dont think there is much difference between this and the 8mp one on the O2X, but that could be just me :)

Also just run a quadrant test got 3321, which I don't think is bad to say it isn't overclocked...
[LG Optimus 3D] lyh1:
I think anyone will stay with HTC, the only reason left is the Sense UI.

The Sense UI make the usability different. From Price Preference ratio and spec seems LG is better. If talking about daily use, it depend on you prefer the ADW solution or the widgets from HTC.
[LG Optimus 3D] Jaza78:
Smart.Fone all said, I agree with the whole text ...... LG is better
[LG Optimus 3D] kotaro_14:
Lol, he has the LG Su-760 aka the design and such is different w/ 3 touch capacitive buttons instead of our 4. Who knows what else can be different? :rolleyes:

I wanna really try the 3VO though. I haven't had a Sense phone before and quite liked it on my friends Sensation 4G. Only problem was Sprint was the only carrier to have it for U.S. I wished that I lived in Canada :(.

But I love my O3D! Want Nexus Prime...
[LG Optimus 3D] DevJackey:
Why not just walk to a sprint store and play with it?

I got a friend with the Evo3D.

At the moment, we both agreed that the 3D on LG's is much better. He's also very jealous of the 3D game converter.

We both also decided that both are great phones just... mine is a 3D phone with 2D features and his is a 2D phone with 3D features. LG and HTC took different approaches in making their 3D phones. LG focused more on the 3D and worked on making it also usable in 2D. While HTC basically took a good 2D phone and gave it 3D options.

I wouldn't worry too much about having Sense. Eye candy kind of goes away after a while. Friend of mine is tired of it already and switched to Go Launcher EX after seeing it on my phone. The Sphere transitions in the App Drawer was enough to convince him.

Most people I know with phones running Sense usually switches to another launcher after a few days or weeks. Told me it was draining their battery and not as smooth after a while of use.
[LG Optimus 3D] Smart.Phone:
HTC basically took a good 2D phone and gave it 3D options.

totally agreed!!!

I was using HTC HD2 , with XDA roms , sense 3.0 , unluckily all EVO 3D were sealed pack. and no one was agree to show it unless someone is really going to buy it.

I was very anxious , I was expecting 3D sense but when I switched it on (after payment) I was shocked , HTC once again made people fool (they did with HD7 as well)

so i returned it to shopkeeper after 3 hours , there was nothing special whole UI was dito copy.. except they just put the 3D camera (which is also not impressive) , shocked shocked and shocked...

as I mentioned in my previous post , we are here to talk about 3D phone , so phone should have sensible 3D performance. which LG has only YET!
[LG Optimus 3D] bronz1983:
Lg is better than evo 3d almost in every field except in latest update ...

2 years warranty should be good for eventually factory misses (screen braking or overheating)
[LG Optimus 3D] Bbaghi:
My first smartphone : LG optimus 3d !

Made an order for the LG optimus 3d over the HTC evo 3d.

HTC only got better resolution, support and more ram. But LG's looks, 1080p video, 3d effect, benchmarks (lol?), screen contrast, more storage .Well both are great phones.

And I'm sure if the LG optimus was named: HTC optimus 3d. The phone would be very popular =)
[LG Optimus 3D] ThiaiZ:
Agree 100%. Biggest problem in O3D is "LG", other than that still not trade my O3D for any phone in the market right now.
[LG Optimus 3D] xtian63:
my next phone would probably be the CX2 unless the SGS3 as rumored will get a 3D version and its better, but hands down right now LO3D is the better of the 2 and thats still with a buggy 2.3 and a lack luster battery life on 2.2.2

the O3D is the one gadget thats an actual chick magnet more than the iPhone 4s
[LG Optimus 3D] CroPryda:
hello guys I am thinking to buy a O3D. Now I have O2X. The main reason I would buy this phone is the bigger screen and better procesor. Is this a smart decission or should I buy an Evo???? Thanks in advance and sorry if something's wrong written...
[LG Optimus 3D] Meemo23:
Though the lack of support for the phone or the lack of knowledge from LG them self do not help this phone at all. I would still choose this phone over the HTC Evo 3D, now i know this has ghost calls and etc. Honestly if i find a problem with a phone i trade it in or just buy another one. But this one has me hoping for a better outcome.

Come maybe September when ics get's released for this bad boy it will be up o par again though it will be late due to quad core devices in the market but this is by far a really good phone..

Though i will end up having a HTC One X i will still be keeping and deving for this phone as it was my first phone that helped me dev.. It made me learn everything ubuntu.. I know ubuntu inside out now.. I can surely dev anything if i put my mind to it but really i don't have time with life and what not..

This phone is overall a great phone hopefully in the near future everything will work perfectly, then even though it will be late we can all say we owned a great phone..
[LG Optimus 3D] CroPryda:
thank you man I hope that my O2X will be sold soon enough :D so I can buy this beast :D

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aidicula:
Hello all

Got the S2 recently...was an HD2 user (with android) and am really impressed with the performance of the S2..though I am not too happy with two things.

- Battery...i just got the VillianRom installed..and I hope to see an improvement there..

- Ear speaker jarring...the ear speaker seems to crackle at certain frequencies. I checked the whole forum and there were some others with the same complaint and was asked to use the Volume+ app..which I have and to be honest i dont see much of a diffrence..the crackle is still there. I want to be sure if this is a hardware issue or a software issue...and how can I really solve it?

Can someone help?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xavier7:
ah.. another fellow s2 holder that has this issue.

YES! I have the same problem and its driving me crazy!!!

its random, and its buzzes, crackle or even sounds like the earspeaker is blown!

What have you done with it? I think I'll probably go change it but just checking here if you have found the solution?

there's one person with a vibrant saying he blew hot air into the earspeaker and it solved the problem (dunno if its advisable) and he didnt say how did he do that.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prodygee:
I seriously have no idea what you're talking about. I use Spotify non-stop on my SGS2, no crackling thing.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xavier7:
I'm not talking about the back speaker, its the front one where you listen to when you're in a call.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dadidaz:
Thank you for your answer! I have the same problem. They dont belive that is something wrong. They changed the speakerphone and no solution. Now they tell me that must be something wrong with our network, which I dont belive... I was also suspecting that all have the same problem, they just dont recognize.

Thanks a lot!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hsmith1514:
I'm fairly new at starting to create a custom feel for my evo, and I seem to be stuck on getting a custom battery icon to work.

this is what ive done so far to the framework-res.apk

1) edited the stat_sys_battery.xml and zzz_stat_sys_battery_1.xml to add the lines <item android:drawable="@drawable/stat_sys_battery_5" android:maxLevel="5" /> for each increment from 0 to 100

2) added a png file for each increment named stat_sys_battery_5.png

3) replaced my phones original apk with the new framework-res.apk.

now when i boot up my phone, where the battery icon is, i get the grey battery symbol (which is the stat_sys_battery_unknown.png image). is there another file i need to edit, or what step am i missing?

im currently using the stock gb 4.22 deodex rom, any help would be appreciated
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fins71:
You looking for battery percentage icon or just different color?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hsmith1514:
either/or, currently im trying to change just the percentages to make sure i can get it to work properly, then ill work on a wider variety of icons. im not looking for a flashable zip, or someone elses modified apk, im looking for guidance on how to do it myself
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fins71:
Ok..I was going to go the zip route for you. Have no idea on doing it yourself. I'm sure someone will be along shortly to help you out. Good luck.

[Xperia Play General] Jakndax:
I'm Interested in this phone....but I'm just iffy on the Tech side of it. It looks Great! But I want a gaming phone that will last me for the 2 years i have on contract with it. I mean look at the Iphone...The 3gs has been around a long time and plays games that look great! On android phones thats not the case...

Back to this phone! The tech looks dated and games are only getting better..... I mean look at the dual core phones! 2 years from now i have a feeling this phone will end up like my rooted droid eris(BLOWS)...useless and slow when it comes to games. Why is that? When Iphone keeps quality games all the time...even years after its been out. I just adore this phone though...I love playstation and want to enrich in the experience of gaming on the mobile phone...I like carrying one device around that can do it all!

Is there hope for this thing? Any games coming out in the future that will make me go was up Iphone? What you got on this? Do you think games will still be hitting the market for this thing in 2 years time? Hell i know people who keep the Iphone 3gs even though they can upgrade!

So I mean really....Iphone 4 or Xperia Play? I'm looking towards Xperia Play but i dont want to regret later wishing i bought the Iphone 4. hmmmmm

Thanks for the help and sorry for my Brick of Text!
[Xperia Play General] Logseman:
Listen, son, playing games properly and emulating your ROMs are the main reasons why you're buying this. Oh, and the ridiculously precise GPS. That's what this phone does best. The iPhone 4 will have more games, and they'll be more optimized for its specs (which are the same as the Xperia's, heads up!), but once you try the pad here, you'll wonder why you were even using a touch screen to play. It is just so much different.
[Xperia Play General] speedyink:
The above post sums it up pretty good.

As said, the iphone 4 has the same specs. While the iPhone 4 may get more games, the fact is a lot of them use on screen controls, which suck SO harshly compared to buttons you never need to look at (or for). This on it's own makes it worlds better than the iphone.

Add in the open, totally customizable android platform, stereo very good for cell phone speakers, and a very nice, large screen, and you've got little reason to get the iphone.
[Xperia Play General] Nhialor:
Mate, plain and simple, there's so many threads about this on this forum it's ridicilious. I'll try and answer your questions, and hopefully you'll make your mind up.

1. If you want a gaming phone, this wins, no contest (I came from a 3GS)

2. Emulation with a proper dedicated controller is off the charts, when I talk to my mates who use the touchscreen to play fpse or whatever, they say it's unplayable, and from my phone, I've convinced a few people to trade in iPhones, Galaxy S's to get it. It's a beast of a phone.

3. You're right, in 2 years, it won't be what it is today, but it'll still be able to hold it's own. If you take care of it, and be smart about what your installing you should be ok. It's a new phone, and I'd say 2 years will be just about the right time to trade it in for the next Xperia Play :P

4. The reason the iphone 3GS STILL plays amazing games and the likes, whereas some Androids don't is simple...Android is moving forward at a much faster pace than the iPhone. The 3G -> 3GS was a big step, but not MASSIVE, the 3GS -> iPhone 4 was minute! When it comes down to it, you won't notice the difference between the 2. But in the last 2 years, the difference in Androids is ridiculous. HTC Desire -> Lg Optimpus 2x, Evo 3D, etc.

I came, as previously said, from an iPhone, and I don't look back at all.

Don't like the stock music player? Uninstall it, browser? Change it...you have so much freedom, it's completly up to you!
[Xperia Play General] Jakndax:
Yea you grabbed my Attention...I like the freedom and really i dont want to get sucked into apples so called "world" I like my Freedom!....I've made up my mind...I'm content with the Xperia Play. I like Android but maybe my Eris has been giving me a crappy experience. Damn...Everytime i look at that gaming pad...All i think about is SNES...NES, GBA...PS1!!(How do all those run?)...Thanks! Made up my mind. Oh and maybe you could Clear me up on What the Playstation Suite will offer in games? I saw Little Big Planet!
[Xperia Play General] speedyink:
Dude, this thing rapes for snes, nes, (don't have gba emu), and PS1. Seriously, it's an old school gamers dream. I'm replaying super mario 64, final fantasy VII, super mario RPG, and many more, and they all run and play amazing. I really hope Sony keeps making these phones, or I'm gonna have a seriously outdated phone 5 years from now :p

As for the playstation suite, It hasn't really taken off yet. I'll be super stoked though if LBP comes to this thing.
