[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsrijo:
At times I've noticed that my phone stays awake even when screen turned off, there are so many reasons for this.

What I wanna know is if there is a widget or an app or something that shows the cpu history indication like in the battery usage page displayed on the home screen so that I will notice it quickly if my phone staying awake.

Or a simple alert if my phone is awake 5 minutes after the screen is locked will do.

Is there an app for this ?

I hope my question is clear enough.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blackwatch:
try using better battery stats and CPUspy bit are available here on XDA or the market

There is a version of bbs on XDA somewhere :)

I hope this helps you.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
How is the battery on your transormer without the dock? How much hours of gaming can you get? Mine goes to about half after about 2 hours and a half of heavy use.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raul69.atl:
Probably 4-5 hours
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psjw12:
I'm finding my battery life poor. Is this just the way the TF300 is?

Asus says 10 hours, Engadget say just over 8 hours playing video at 50%.

I'm disappointed with mine I go down to below 30% after about 3 hours use constant usage easily. Even when it's asleep it takes a couple % down per hour.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TXKSSnapper:
For the asleep part, it might help to turn on the setting to disconnect wifi while sleeping. I get extremely long battery life, but I also have very light usage because I work a lot. A lot of it could depend on what you are doing for that constant use. Also, are you rooted? and if so have you overclocked?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jarm3r:
I'm frankly quite surprised at the poor battery life. I depleted the entire dock battery this morning by using it about 3 hours. The main tab battery is now at 80% so will probably last about another 3 hours or so on heavy usage. I'm not all that impressed at all on 6 hours of usage WITH the dock keyboard.

Originally this morning I actually thought something was wrong with my keyboard battery since it was depleting so fast, but I guess not... Wow.

What do the "balanced" ... "performance" settings in the menu actually do?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psjw12:
Well my Wifi wake setting is set to never on when sleeping. I'm rooted but I've not overclocked. I just use the built in Asus model (eco, performance and balaned). It's normally on balanced.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psjw12:
From what I've read Eco clocks the cpu at 600mhz, balanced at 1.2ghz and performance at 1.3ghz
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
I dont even get 3 hours i think....
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsf3g:
Honestly, I've been pretty happy with mine. I just don't see any scenario in which I would drain the dock then drain the main battery and not see a whole day of usage. I just don't see myself doing 6 straight hours of heavy gaming.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2stepsteve:
Bare in mind that gaming is the most power consuming operation. 5-6 hours continuous gaming doesn't seem too bad to me.

What's the battery life like for internet browsing?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psjw12:
Is that with or without dock?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oo3:
My battery is currently at 35% and it has been 22 hours since I unplugged it from the charger. I have 4.5 hours of screen time which included heavy browsing and playing Draw Something. This is without the dock.

I am using the .29 build.prop mod as well as the Transformer overclock app (I forgot what it was called) that uses 1ghz for eco, 1.3 for balanced and 1.6 for performance. My setting has been on balanced.

Overall I'm happy with my battery life although I don't play much games on it. FYI I lost approximately 12% of battery life overnight. I don't remember the exact number so I'll check again tomorrow.

If you are rooted, maybe you should try the Battery Calibration app on the Play Market?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
]

Battery life at about 96% after about ten minutes of light use of the tablet for me. Not great...
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WOEHAA:
I can't say I'm very happy with the battery life of my TF300T (no dock)

It's stock ICS with the WW .29 firmware and powermanagement is set to balanced.

But I (also) think that there is a software thingy going on:

After a 100% charge I left it on standby/sleep from 8 in the morning untill 6 in the evening. 11 hours of standby mode alone drained almost 20% of the battery :eek:

I double checked the battery usage and indeed it's the idle mode that was so energy hungry.

I saw there is a MOD here at XDA that fixes the standby power consumption and I will be giving that a try for sure.

With normal use (no movies, just browsing, moving files around from and to my NAS, reading PDF's) it uses 50% in about 3 hours.

Playing movies (WIFI turned off) does about the same thing, so I guess it's mainly the screen that consumes all the energy.

I do not play games, so no experiences with that.

What I would like to try is to have PowerAmp play music, screen turned off and then see how much battery is used.

Recharging is pretty fast btw: The TF300T does a better job than my Desire S.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TXKSSnapper:
What do you consider light use? also, what is your screen brightness at?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgaf:
I get about 25-30 mins each 5% on light use. My brightness is never over 50% and I'm underclock to 880mhz, everything still runs smoothly. Also most of the time I'm on power saving mode. Also most of the time spent on those 30+mins were on Tapatalk with the dark theme, so there's no much power used for the background since its a dark grey color not bright white as the default.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
Screen brightness relatively high and a bit of browsing
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TXKSSnapper:
Screen Brightness can drain a battery pretty quickly. The only other things I can think of would be gps, or bluetooth being on. If you are rooted, you could underclock and get a lot better battery life that way.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
how do i get extended battery stats?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgaf:
The app I'm using is Badass battery monitor.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psjw12:
You click app usage on Badass or if you've got update .29 you can go to Settings then battery and click battery usage.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
Is it bad to constantly drain the battery?

Or to charge it abundantly but not when the charge is full
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psjw12:
I would give you an answer but I've heard lots of different views on this. I personally try to drain my tablet and charge it less often. Same with my phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thatgrass:

THanks in advanced!
[LG Optimus 2x] arkara:
So the time has passed. Updates have come(?). Overall are you happy with your Lg 2x? I am certainly not.
[LG Optimus 2x] KapWorldDevp2:
I am not happy with my 2X. Battery drain so quickly, looking for upgrade for iPhone 5 after possibly it gets launch in October or November.
[LG Optimus 2x] Balano:
Bought mine in march 2011. If you asked me this in april last year, i would have said yes.

But now, NO! I almost hate my phone, waiting for the SGS3 to be available.
[LG Optimus 2x] V.Dragos:
i am wondering why aren't you happy..

i got my phone very cheap and i couldn't get near the specs even with double the money. I am running CM9 and even in this not finished state it runs smoothly and the battery lasts 2 days easy
[LG Optimus 2x] metaljunk:
Why in particular are you unhappy?

the stock froyo was crap, i'd agree with that. but since I'm running cm9, the phone is incredibly smooth and battery life is also great.

just curious :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Balano:
Batterylife is terrible! signal is very unstable when on 3G. I paid full price, i preordered it. I admit, i use the phone alot. Not playing games, but surfing, email, all the stuff a smartphone is smart at. But most of the time it is sitting in the charger. Off screen 0,5%-1%/hour.

If i got it for 250€ then i would be satisfied. I paid too much when comparing it to other phone just a month after.

I did not have reboots or black screens of death the first couple of months. It started to be very annoying in the beginning of this year.
[LG Optimus 2x] Ph03nix95:
I am quite happy with my o2x, just got it very recently(You might ask why with all the new phones coming out etc, well this phone was much cheaper than any other dual core phone/phone with similar hardware and it seemed to have decent support on here which it does). I am running CM9 on it and it is very smooth, sure battery life isn't too great, but it isn't too bad. Not sure why people are unhappy with it besides the battery life, but honestly you won't get that much better on most other phones. Perhaps it is because you got it for quite a expensive price when it was first released and expected more or something or you are comparing it to newer, more expensive phones?
[LG Optimus 2x] feribalint:
There currently are satisfied with this phone.

I have not had problems, I had installed many custom rom on it.

The only thing that bothers me is support from LG on the update.
[LG Optimus 2x] Syriochan:
I got it through a series of trades, overall money spent: 150€ ~ 200$

For that price it is a great phone but i don't like it very much. Stock firmware is ugly and updates are slow. With custom roms it is a very nice phone, very smooth and with high battery performance.

On the other side i don't like soft touch buttons (too much space occupied) and the overall design (iphone-like)
[LG Optimus 2x] hicks12:
Very happy with my phone, i bought it in may or june on contract with Orange and it works out that the phone cost me £168... bargain as you would struggle to get something like a wildfire for that price back then!. But i would be even happier if we had ICS officially now and actually had resources to work with so even better third party roms could be made.

Sometimes i do feel that i just WANT to leave the custom ROM area, sometimes i do just want my phone to WORK it works most of the time but theres a fair amount of slow downs and it can get annoying, but value for money i cant fault it!.
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
u guys compplaining about the o2x, but i can tell you, my friend has a sgs2 and its battery life is far worse than mine, funny if u consider mine is clocked 200 mhz higher than his and theyr both tegra 2. plus i have never even seen a sgs2 even get close to an o2x, even in every benchmark o2x wins by far especialy in graphics, btw ill leave you some screenshots so u can take your own conclusions. btw, this is only my view not sayinng its an absolute truth :) but still its awesome to see sgs2 oc'd to 1.5 ghz lose in performance to a 1.4 ghz o2x XD
[LG Optimus 2x] Kag:
It is a good phone for apps but the odd radio issues still baffle me.

Data can't be reactivated after being disabled for some time.

GPS, Bluetooth and 3G seems to have some warfare, the radio crashes sometimes when i use my A2DP with maps.

And for most people these issues probably will never happen for them.

EDIT: Another thing to add is that the built quality is great, i like the curved glass edges and the camera is really good.
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
well, i gotta tell you, im one of those people... XD i never use 3g, only use data if some1 sends me an mms, but i turn it off as soon as i get it, and i always uninstall google maps and all gps related softare coz i simply dont need em, i got 3 gps devices plus the only time i used the gps on the o2x it ate my battery like there was no tomorrow XD
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
I'm quite happy with my o2x. Running self kang cm7 stable as rock with good battery life. Tonns of features ....

I'm gonna sit till cm9 comes with hwa. Till then cm7 still my daily driver.
[LG Optimus 2x] coldflid:
Man both phones are clocked to 1.5ghz not only the sgs2

Also you are running cm, whilst galaxy s 2 is running stock

In same conditions i don't know who wins

Apart lg sucky support and update the phone is good and im happy with it but i would buy another lg device considering lgs reputation now, might go with huawei new quad core device.
[LG Optimus 2x] tenebrus:
Yes

Yes, i've just installed CM9 on my 2x and it's working great.

I've paid a very low price for this phone and i couldn't expect anything better for that price, at least here in Brazil.

The phone has some bugs, such as loss of signal and battery drain, but it's nothing that makes me hate the phone :)
[LG Optimus 2x] theevilworm:
Nah, I can't say I am happy with my 2X. ****ty LG support which results in bad performance despite good hardware. Very fast battery drain. Random shutdowns oder sleeps of death where I have to take battery out.
[LG Optimus 2x] Superxan:
The phone (O2X) rocks, its just that the company "LG" sucks (BIG TIME)

As many have stated, it is comparitively cheaper than its competitors having similar or better specs, we're just let down on the software department thanks to LG but even then with great developers around here, it just makes it on par with the rest.

Been using MIUI till recently and now Temasek's ROM, its running really great and I'm glad to have such support from these devs around.
[LG Optimus 2x] arkara:
Basically the bad support and sub-sub optimal stock ROM makes the phone crappy. Hardware-wise it's great.
[LG Optimus 2x] darrenxes:
Its a good phone. Jus forget LG support
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
yeah sometimes i think some of us got unlucky with theyr phones, not that its my case but i see some people reporting bsod's while i didnt have any for months with cm7, stock based or cm9 and i try everything round the forum...
[LG Optimus 2x] Lavina:
I am very happy now but last year when I bought in July with stock froyo i was a little bit disappointed. Front Camera did not work in Skype it was a too slow but now with tamasek-vadonka combination it really fly and recently in changed adw launcher to go launcher and it's very different so now it's kind a have a new phone
[LG Optimus 2x] spica1234:
Y-e-s, look @ what you've paid;)
[LG Optimus 2x] black_mamba99:
totally happy and satisfied with optimus 2x

LG optimus 2x (stock)- terrible

LG optimus 2x (with custom ROM)-best thing out their at this price
[LG Optimus 2x] Memhis:
You have took the words from my mouth :).

P.S. anyone unsatisfied - have a look at spica`s thread in dev section and you will shortly become 2x faster user ;).
[LG Optimus 2x] Micronuub:
Seriously guys, its a great phone, just forget about the support for LG and think about how many great ROMS are out there for the O2x that make the phone so much better.

Why do you need Support from LG when the developers are better than LG ever could be with supporting good software for the phone.
[LG Optimus 2x] :
Its a great price for great hardware but overall, im not satisfied.

Videoplayback (hd, high profile) does not work and also browsing and other things are slow...

Using it only as a phone now, for everything else i bought a 100€ tablet, doing everything i want.

Price is good, but too much for just a phone
[LG Optimus 2x] gxgguoxing:
one word!no!
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
Because we need the drivers or an official ics rom to get hardware acceleration you tard, don't you read?
[LG Optimus 2x] eniux:
No, and I tried to sell this piece of **** but no one wants it for 200 euros with extra battery and back cover.

Guess I'll wait for LG to postpone their update for another 4 months

Battery is good, NOVA HD, after 2 days still 50% battery.
[LG Optimus 2x] xilw3r:
stop the senseless flaming dudes. You know what they say, arguing on the internet is like participating in Special Olympics- even if you win, you're still retarded :)

on topic: im pretty darn happy with my 2x, its one of the best at audio quality, camera is great, only a bit slow. And temasek's CM7 makes it fly :)

i only wish LG would make those new sio+ batteries for their older smartphones as well, so we could have ~2100 mAh battery.
[LG Optimus 2x] vitor_fs:
I'm glad to have this one.

Even with overheat when charging or doing something "heavy", some reboots and no too long battery life I'm really happy with my Optimus 2x.It's perfect for my games, sms, calls and internet...I'm just want to solve the problem about overheat, but the others things it's ok to me!

If anyone know how I can solve it, send a message please!Sorry for my bad english, bye my friends!

Definitely happy, for me it was a big jump from Optimus One. Decent hardware, great developers around. Those can perfectly cover LG crap support
[LG Optimus 2x] azharshaikh7866:
I m happy with my o2x because no other phone has that gr8 custom rom support .........though LG sucks
[LG Optimus 2x] umutozcano:
there are people who say its a good phone when you look at the price. They have a point there. But there a lot of people, like myself, who bought the phone just after release, the early adopters. Paid full price. Costs about the same as a S2 back then. The phone's not worth what i paid, never was. Considering I paid top dollar for the O2X, nah I aint happy with it.
[LG Optimus 2x] rz.tiagopedrinho:
I'm happy with my phone, though i would be much more if LG released the ics blobs to the general public.

[LG Optimus 2x] ciwek90:
I am happy with my 2x. Proud owner! :D
[LG Optimus 2x] arkara:
Custom roms do not count guys. Most times they are sucky. Just like the stock rom. That's why the phone sucks overall.
[LG Optimus 2x] rz.tiagopedrinho:
I've tried lots of roms and most are actually awesome, both temasek's for cm7 and owain for cm9 are very fluid and functional for me. Maybe you tried the wrong roms?

Rz
[LG Optimus 2x] ciwek90:
But...but...i'm using stock rom. Just flash custom kernel only. Overall still perfect for me. Idk why, but i am so satisfied of what it can do in my daily life and usage. woot~ :D
[LG Optimus 2x] the_ghost__NL:
I wasn't happy with it's stock firmware,

but after rooting it and installing custom firmware it's a wonderful device.
[LG Optimus 2x] flat__line:
Very happy

I bought it used (150 euros) just to experiment with Android.

I immediately rooted it and started playing with Temasek (CM7) and Nova HD (CM9) and a bunch of kernel versions: I am VERY happy with the device.

Both roms are (nearly) completely functional for me (only NOVA HD has a 'major' disunctionality, for me at least, that I cannot connect to my external GPS). Both roms are fluid, no anomalous reboots, performances are definitely better tha with stock v20q.

I also bought (eBay) a 1800 mAh battery, and autonomy is very reasonable (even better if you slightly undervolt and user the proper profiles)
[LG Optimus 2x] body150165:
No, i can not claim to be happy. And i dont put the price into consideration.

Froyo was "usable", and i dont mean it as a compliment. Waiting way too long for GB resulting in a disastrious GB with GPS bug and other stuff (random reboots, turn off randomly..... remember all that?). ICS will be published after Android 5 will be released. Service is a disaster.

RAM is to small.

Its hard for me to find something good on the phone. I regret that I bought it since i had similar experience with a LG GT540.

This will have been the last LG device in my life.
[LG Optimus 2x] ToesNZ:
my 2x is my favourite gadget. Our just keeps on getting better with every tweak. I'm running v20q with unneeded items frozen and tweak pack installed. Its faultless to use. I started out on a palm years ago then windows mobile. Thus is bliss!
[LG Optimus 2x] xilw3r:
just... shut up. since obviously you have no idea what you are talking about.
[LG Optimus 2x] DaNuker:
With stock ROM, no. The stock ROM is absolutely horrendously in performance, especially when you load it with a number of downloaded apps and it runs low on memory. Nvidia screwing our Tegra 2 by withholding driver updates and that's probably going to put a significant delay into any official ICS ROM.

With custom ROMs and kernels though, the phone moved from "poor" to "above average".
[LG Optimus 2x] ounila:
I have p970 before and it's better than 2x in esthetic, design and screen brightness.
[LG Optimus 2x] arkara:
What, i insulted you?
[LG Optimus 2x] xilw3r:
Oh, heavens no, dear chap. That was just a piece of friendly advice for you to stay quiet, so you dont continue to show your lack of knowledge concerning this matter, thus not making a fool of your self. Get the drift holmes ?

Thats a truly exquisite picture i must say. Made it your self mayhap ?
[LG Optimus 2x] 60nine:
Proud owner of LG Optimus 2x since 03-2012...

why?

because i got a nice phone for small amount of money... and i can customize it's speed whenever i want...

surely, i'm not using stock rom and kernel... and i think everyone here who didn't like LG O2x didn't even try rooting their phone and run away from preinstalled stuff...

here is the picture from Antutu - phone running on 1408 MHz (Vadonka kernel, Temasek's rom)
[LG Optimus 2x] 60nine:
he never tried Vadonka/Temasek combination...
[LG Optimus 2x] bech5:
I am very happy with the phone. Not too happy about LG's software support. The latest stock rom is decent though. But the official ICS rom ought to be out, or at least the source code released.

The phone is great though. Currently running Nova HD ICS rom with the NovaKernel, and it is brilliant. Only thing I miss is the HW accel, which hopefully will be here sometime soon.
[LG Optimus 2x] AnnoStar:
I don't really follow all the news much, so I'm a little surprised by the amount of unsatisfied users.

I've had mine for almost a year now and very little complaints, I didn't use the stock ROM for more than a couple hours so I can't comment on that.

I'm now using it with Nova HD and find it even better, it has performed well for me, gaming, music, the usual stuff.

Again like others have said for the money I really can't complain, it hasn't given me problems and I couldn't get these specs elsewhere for anything like what I paid. £280 at the time.
