Besides the apps, the iPhone battery has always outlasted my android devices including g1, mytouch 3g, Samsung vibrant, mytouch 4g, g2x, without heavily configuration my battery isn't even close, that's one thing I wish the developers would work at, I could play fieldrunners for hours and still have awesome battery this was with the iPhone 3g, I could only imagine it would be better on the 4, regardless I still love my g2x.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] OuncE718:
Not to sound stupid, but I think Samsung makes the retina screen. I could be wrong though
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
im almost 90% sure iphone 4 has the retina display
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tidewaterns:
Go ahead and make it 100% because the iPhone 4 has the retina display.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wendellc:
LG makes the retina screen. Would have been nice for the g2x to have a higher resolution screen. But I would take g2x over iPhone 4 anyday. IPhone is boring and last one I had was 3gs.

Is cypress digitizer not working with modules like x8 mddi by DX???...

Cause everytime i play a game...it will lag a while...and when i press home button...it takes time to recover or restore bak the launcher??i mean it blackout awhile..and lags...and then slowly initialise...is so slow...is it better for me to go back to stock rom??..i just wanna know is cypress working with the mddi lag fix module?

i got 60+ apps....
[XPERIA X8 General] LG_fuad92:
Calm down, mate. :)

I encounter the same thing here, but I THINK that cypress works with Dx's mddi. whenever I press the home button from my game it blacks out too. just like you, it's because our x8 doesn't have enough RAM I guess. So it'll load a little slower. :)
[XPERIA X8 General] lukewong01:
But i some time sms ...i use go sms...den when pop out came....the launcher will blackout agin..:(....does my apps have too much?...is the stock really more lags?...cause i never tried stock for even 1 day...=,=...but i love some stock features.....

and the launcher takes 10 second to initialise...:(..damn
[XPERIA X8 General] LG_fuad92:
what ROM are you using? Well, stock isn't lag at all. but it's not as smooth as custom ROM's, and it's more battery draining. Try to full wipe, wipe cache, dalvik cache. etc. reflash.
[XPERIA X8 General] lukewong01:
Froyobread 0.19...wats the best number of apps installed?..and the free memory on phone?
[XPERIA X8 General] LG_fuad92:
I'm not sure about that.. just try to reflash the ROM and wipe everything. I have no lags in this ROM. :)

i never have a lot apps in my phone just a few.
[XPERIA X8 General] DeFcOn:
I have cypress digitizer and mddi lag fix don't work for me!:(

Noled is a battery hog, it uses approximately 9% per hour that its on. BLN uses less than 1% per hour, hope we get it working properly soon. Info obtained from tests done by xda forum members.

If the only thing on your phone that uses battery is the Noled that means that you must not turn your phone on very often :)

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Texan28:
So i've read forums about battery life exceeding 24 hrs...i've seen the topic's about using wifi when available, turning off data, using only 2G, and I've done all that...buuuuut im not getting no where near that life span.

im still getting maybe 5-6 hrs.. and thats just really texting, facebook/twitter (occasionally) and xda app 2-3 times a day.

What gives? Am i just using the phone too much? Is that 24 life span standby only? Someone please explain...Thanks
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wewoapsiak:
Are you using a stock rom, custom rom, stock kernel, custom kernel? Info man, info! I've seem some testers for Morfic's up and coming kernel for cm7 stating their 24+ hrs. I'm using latest cm7 nightlies, faux's kernel and I get 15 hrs light use with full signal. That being said, I think there is already a thread about this; try searching for it, there might be more info. Or I might be wrong.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LordButtersI:
Using CM7 with stock kernel I get around 24 hours. The best thing you can possibly do is rig up something that will underclock your phone to minimum when the screen is off. PimpMyCPU and SetCPU can both do this, which app you use depends on which kernel you run.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] allthrottle:
On the stock rom with all of the bloat and without adjusting sync options for all of your apps and accounts, your battery life will be horrible. A lot of bloat auto runs in the background. After removing the bloat, I would get a consistent 12 hours with two email accounts syncing, Facebook, twitter, mutplie pulse feeds, weather etc..

When I turned off data and syncing, removed the sim and just used the phone as a gaming and web/xda browsing device, I got 3 full days of battery life. Yes, 72 hours. This is on cm7, stock kernel. Wifi stayed on for the most part, (set to turn off when the screen turns off) and I spent a couple of hours total gaming on it.

Data KILLS the battery life on this phone. You'll gain a significant amount of battery life by managing the amount of time it runs when you're not using the phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jacob808:
To the OP, you're like most of us and use the phone for entertainment, with constant use the stock battery will be down to about 50%, with watching videos, gaming and browsing the web within 3 hours.

I seriously doubt anyone is getting 24 hours on stock battery even using custom ROMs. It could be that they don't even use the phone, and they have juice defender while it's on sleep, to get such numbers, or they' re exaggerating and posting fake info to push a certain ROM.

As far as 15 hours, that seems to be what the stock battery is able to achieve before it dies. So, no the cm7 ROM is not achieving anything that stock ROM isn't as far as battery life.

I have the mugen 4500mah extended battery, and since having it for about a month now, I can say with heavy usage, i.e. watching movies, listening to radio, playing videogames nonstop constantly, hour after hour, the battery will last you from morning until next day early morning. On very light usage just using it as a phone with very light browsing, out will last you about 2 days. I thought out would last me a week but I seriously don't know what is dreading the battery when on standby, and this is ther problem with the phone.

Maybe it's the apps that are accessing data when not in use and the radio. Right now I'm trying to see if droidwall will help to extend battery life, by not allowing programs to access the network.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LordButtersI:
I'm currently experimenting with a Tasker setting where the phone drops data to 2g only when the screen is off. I can't turn off data altogether because I use Google Voice for all my texting (save $10/month), otherwise you could save a huge amount of battery by disabling data completely. So far I'm not noticing any change with just 2g.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Texan28:
Well everything i run is stock....i think...im new to all the custom ROMs and stuff...all i did with my phone was use NVflash, clockwork mod and load cm7 nightly (version 75 currently) ....i lovr it and glad i came across this site with TONS of info...i learn new stuff daily by just reading posts on the forum but idk how to use custom kernels or load them or any of that...i dont want to start talking about that here since im sure theres a post about it in the forum ....but i just didnt know if that battery life span is capable of being reached or it was a load of crap....

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] just4747:
Hey guys,

No matter what, I get the "Unable to Connect" error when trying to connect to my Gmail on Chrome-to-Phone. I've uninstalled, reinstalled etc but nothing. Other Google apps seem to work fine I think.

I'm already connected to this account in this app on my Droid X, so I know it should work. Same goes for my Nook Color previously, worked fine. Why wouldn't it work on this?

Also, in the YouTube tablet app, some videos I try to watch, the second it hits the video screen and the little loading circle starts spinning, the app freezes and then force closes. More than 50% of the videos seem to work, but some (namely certain ones I click from the widget that are featured, which is weird) freeze up right away and FC on me. Any answers to this one yet?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] eallan:
I definitely get the youtube force closes. No idea whats causing it.

Well I bet that one's pretty common.

But does anyone know how to make Chrome to Phone work? This is killing me!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Andrew C:
I have the same chrome to phone problem on my Tab and Thunderbolt. Its really annoying because I use it all of the time.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] aSeeker:
np with Chrome2Phone here - it's just a little slow sometimes.

Try: Force Stop, Clear Cache for the app & restart.

You seeing any message in your logs? (adb logcat)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] just4747:
Nope, tried clearing/uninstalling...nothing works, just get unable to connect.

EDIT: I did a logcat on my PC while trying to connect to Chrome to Phone, and the section that contains tons of mentions of Chrome to Phone is freakin over 14,000 characters long, much too long to paste in here. How do I know what to look for in there??? (A hell of a lot of activity happens instantly).
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] bill.allrobots.org:
Google has some arbitrary limit of number of devices that you can connect to your chrome to phone account. If you use a different Google account, you should be fine. If you unregister one of your devices, you should be fine.

The problem comes from us crack-flashers that forget to unregister before flashing a new ROM. If you have a nandroid backup of a ROM where you are still registered, restore it and unregister, then restore back to whatever you were using before. I've even gotten it to work on my tablet by unregistering on my phone and then restoring a backup to regain the registration on my phone.

I've also heard that the old registrations expire after a while. I can't verify that, though.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] aSeeker:
You'll see something that looks like a stack-trace.

It has to be fast - your phone does a lot without you knowing about it :)

Your best bet is to: adb logcat > capture.txt

Run through the app.

Open & explore.

You'll find a group of lines that look something like:

D/ContactsSyncAdapter( 517): at com.google.wireless.gdata2.client.GDataServiceClient.convertHttpExceptionForWrites(GDataServiceClient.java:466)

The specific content will vary depending on what apps is crashing.

Feel free to IM me the log and I'll help point out the error.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] just4747:
Ok so the too many devices thing is it. I think 2 is the limit. I am linked through my Droid X and was linked to my Nook Color. The problem is that I factory restored (reflashed stock Nook firmware) the Nook to sell it and no longer have access to Chrome to Phone on that device (I assumed it would disconnect the link for me?). It has stock firmware, so no Android apps or anything. Yet the only way I can get it to connect on my Tab is to disconnect on my Droid X app. I don't want to disconnect on there obviously.

How can I disconnect what it thinks is still a link to my Nook Color without actually even having it on the device?? I want to have it link to my DX and my Tab- this will work but I don't see any outside way to unlink it from my Nook? Grr

Basically now, my Tab is connected fine but now the same issue is with my DX, so I still need to figure this out.

Also, in my opinions, this limit of two is not great because what if you really have a legit third device and want to link? There is no quick way to switch between devices if there is a third, and nobody really wants to have two Google accounts just for this. Kinda stupid IMO.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] nakedninja42:
I have had this issue for awhile on my Samsung Captivate and now my Galaxy tab. If there is a limit, I need to figure out how to remove the old ones. Does any one know how to remove devices? I do not currently have it connected on any devices so I should be able to have it running no problem but I get the same message as the OP when I try.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] just4747:
Um OK, so I bit the bullet, took the Nook out, reflashed CM7, logged into Google, downloaded Chrome to Phone...all so I can do what I thought would work and log in to Chrome to Phone and then disconnect again so that the device would now longer be linked. I did that, and now I cannot connect on any of my three devices.

Are you serious?? How are people supposed to deal with this? There is no device management for the account/app anywhere. Can someone please help me make this work? I don't know what to do at this point..

I even tried connecting CTP on the Nook to my other Google account to see if it would really unlink my original account, but I still can't login with the original account on any device!! Oh my freakin God
[General Questions and Answers] DjMikeWatt:
I'm just curious about this... why do developers like netflix and hulu restrict their apps to certain devices?

I assume the short answer is because they're not confident that the non-certified phones can handle the app. But I have a Galaxy S (Vibrant) and I use my slingbox all the time to stream to my phone and it works without a hitch... so why do these companies think that my phone can't handle streaming netflix or hulu?

It's just really frustrating.

And on a completely different note, when is someone going to tell the big corporations (banks, etc.) that Android has a pretty big lead in America over iOS? It seems like everybody still develops iOS apps first, then goes back and does Android... that annoys me, too.

Thanks for letting me vent! Anyone who knows anything about my question please reply... I'd be interested to see what you all have to say.

Cheers,

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dvdy:
I recently imported a LG Optimus 7 and it finally arrived today. However, the phone doesn't seem to want to boot. The first time I plugged it in, the screen lit up with an LG splash screen, then the screen turned off and turned back on with LG on it. This kept repeating so I pulled the battery, however this time the phone didn't light up when I plugged it in and I couldn't get anything to respond, the power button didn't do anything. So I pulled the battery again. From this point I did several more battery pulls, each time the power button does not do anything, and if I plug the charger in, the screen may or may not turn on and show the LG splash screen.

Is the phone defective or is there something I can do to fix it?
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] munkeyphyst:
"Is the phone defective" that's funny.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lpedraja2002:

[HTC Sensation] illmatic416:
Negri Electronics or GSM Nation have it unlocked with the new codes released yesterday. 621 CAD(549.99 plus the crazy taxation that funds their universal healthcare) is roughly around 637 USD as of today. From my experience, you can roughly get it for 640 something after googling coupon codes and google checkout with Negri. In a way it's cheaper since you don't have to pay for the unlock code. Your next best option would be to visit our friendly neighbors to the North and buy from a Bell store, then try to get a tax refund at the border. However unless you live near the US border, I'm pretty sure, traveling to Canada would offset any savings you could get by buying in person.
[HTC Sensation] sti-06:
I wish I was close to Canada. I live in SC so it is a lil bit of a drive:D

Wow $640 is way too much for that phone. I love and everything but that price is pretty absurd.
[HTC Sensation] NinetoFive:
It's a very strange sensation (pun intended) reading about americans coming up North to buy something up here.

It's always the other way around. Not available in canada, no shipping to Canada, this COMEDY CENTRAL video is not available for you peasants.

Canadians going down to the states to avoid tax, buy cheaper products, etc. I could go on and on.

Why can't americans buy it from their own stores down there, I thought it was out there earlier than Bell released it up here?
[HTC Sensation] Matt1408:
Haha, it's opposite land. Canada has been improving in getting cellphones in a timely manner, especially with the XPERIA series. The iPhone 4 came unlocked here, Nexus S, etc...

Anyways, you'd be correct, the Americans got the Sensation before we did but they got the 1700mhz version for T-Mobile. This is the same frequencies that Wind and Mobilicity use here. Unfortunately, Rogers/Bell/Telus (at AT&T in the States) doesn't operate at 1700mhz and instead operate on 850mhz/1900mhz, which is what the Bell Sensation was released at.
