Use the original charger the phone came with.using other chargers,with different specs,may damage the battery on long terms.

Using a charger with lower intensity(700mAh) will charge the battery slower and for a while it will look like the battery will last longer,but in time it will affect the battery.

Using a higher intensity charger(1500 mAh for example),will charge the battery faster,but in time it will also affect the battery.

Best way is to make complete cycles of discharging/charging,avoid using the phone while is charging.

This is for the battery health.

To increase daily battery life,deactivate auto sync,set weather sync to min 1h,turn off fps/data/wi-fi when you don't need them.

The battery on the phone is guaranteed for about 850 cycles.so,even if you charge the phone every day,you have more than 2 years warranty for the battery to work on parameters.

Then,why worry that much?

Because I want my device last more than two years. My last phones last near four years each one. it will be a pitty if I had to forget a good phone only because battery is age-worn.

Given that you propose only charginr with original charger (with make sense to me), what about USB-PC port charge? it is better to use one or the other? both methods are supported by LG and mentioned in the manual, and supposed one of them would be desirable.
[LG Optimus G (International)] kimitza:
Nope,it's better to avoid charges fom usb.in fact,if you have files to copy to/from pc,after you finish i recommend to plug it out.

And those 850 cycles i mentioned are not the end of the battery.it means the battery will keep it"s properties.in time,it's normal for any electric/electronic component to show signs of fatigue.anyway,2+ years for a battery it's great.technology is evolving.you didn't mention,your last phone you had for 4 years,with same battery?and it was in the same parameters?well,it's hard to believe:).

[LG Optimus G (International)] clonfsp:
what is the "scientific" or "logical" reason to prefer the wall charger to usb-pc? I read it before it is better to charge into usb because 500mA are better for battery, less heat altought it takes longer to arrive to 100%.

My SGS last near 4 years, and I mainly I charged it from usb 50% and official charger 50%, and with Llama (and manually) I was very stricted in what features I turn on and off. In fact the battery and the phone is still in use for other person and the battery "looks" like the first use.
[LG Optimus G (International)] kimitza:
Well,it's not empirical,it's science.maybe i don't know how to put it in english that good,but i'll try.

As we all know,the electricity is measured within some parameters : tension(volts),in intensity(amps) and frequency(herz).

In your case,the wall charger provides 5 volts at the intensity of 1200 miliamps per hour.this is the standard value,made by lg for the g battery.if you provide less than half of that specified intensity(500mAh),the battery will charge alot slower,and it will "struggle" to align the electrons onto the battery layers.you shouldn't have a difference higher than 20%.for a period,it will look like the battery will last longer,but in the same time it will lose it's properties faster than the normal charging.

Today,batteries are not simple electric storages,but smart components themselves.if you mess up their function parameters,you will notice it in time:).

[LG Optimus G (International)] clonfsp:
Kimitza, thank you very much for your support. One more question?. What specifications do you recomend for a car charger? (having in mind I don't use the smarthphone in the car, excep for GPS-maps sometimes. Most time I only charged it)

I have seen in the shop there a vary range of car charges that goes from 750mA to 2100mA.

And other one: is it advisable to use the device while charging?
[LG Optimus G (International)] kimitza:
I have an energizer car charger,rated at 1000mAh.

So,anything between 850-1300mAh should be ok.

My advice is not to charge the phone while using it in car,especially as gps,unless you have to.why?let's see,using the gps will cause the phone to heat more than usual.another heating reason,i'm sure you have a car mount sticked to the front glass of the car,exposed to direct sun.add to these 2 reasons the heat created by the charging itself and you will have yourself a veeeery hot optimus g.oh,forgot about the case.if you have one,especially silicon case,you'll end up with a frying pan:).

If you can eliminate some of those heating sources,it would be great.

I found a car mount fitting on an AC blow hole.it's handy in the summer time.for winter,i stick my normal mount on front glass.

On long trips i try to avoid using it as gps when i'm on the highway.i use only in cities.

I remove the silicon case to provide extra air.

And,if i use as gps,i don't charge it.i plan my trip in such way i charge the phone while i'm on highway(if needed of course).i never spent that much time in car wondering in major cities to empty my phone:).

Only if i really must i charge the phone while using it.

Feel free to follow or not my guide.

But i think it makes sense:).

[LG Optimus G (International)] clonfsp:
I like your advices. I was also asking if you use the phone while in wall-charging??

thanks
[LG Optimus G (International)] kimitza:
Sometimes i do,but,like i said, i try to avoid it. Depending on the activity.

Sometimes i find myself searching for the plug when i'm caught in a game and i want to continue :))..

But this phone gave the beste ratio gaming/battery i saw :). One day i played 4.5 hrs of Real Racing 3,before charging the phone.So,it's great.

I was so into that game i didn't wanted to end,so yea, i played while charging:).Just don't make a habbit out of it :).

And sometimes you can't use the phone without charging it....for example,when i play a movie on my 32" tv. The mhl adapter will not work without the phone pluged.
[LG Optimus G (International)] cickvoa:
V= 5V. Current does not matter, on "charger" is max current. It should be mentioned, that thing we are calling charger is actually an adapter. Charging unit will take needed current, so do not talk stupidity, all of you have no idea about basics of electro-technics
[LG Optimus G (International)] clonfsp:
but the question was not what current is needed, but what is the ideal current (charging velocity) in order to make battery life last longer. what is your opinion ?
[LG Optimus G (International)] kimitza:
Well,another specialist.I never mentioned the Voltage,which is the same for almost all mobile devices.I was talking about intensity,this makes the difference. And since you mentioned it, it's not just an adapter,it's more,because this piese of electronic equipment CONVERTS one kind of electricity(alternative current),with some specs(110-220V), to another kind of electricity(dirrect current),with other specs(5V). All this, guess what,to provide enough DC to CHARGE the battery.the standard in mobile industry has been set to 5V on wall chargers and 3.7 V output batteries.

These are the most common and used. The difference is made by the capacity of the batteries and the capability of chargers to supply an amount of electric intensity in a period of time. Again, the standard has been set to mAh,which is milliamps per hour. So,to be exact, a charger rated 5v - 1200mAh will provide a 5V current,at 1200 milliamps per hour.

On the other hand,the battery specs say : 3.7 V, 2100 mAh. This means the battery can provide an output current of 3.7V, at the max intensity of 2100mAh. Didn't measured the G max consumption, but i can tell you for sure, the maximum intensity used by my previous Galaxy note was 800 mAh,on some heavy gaming. And this measurement was made in a lab,with proper tools.You can do an estimative measurement home quite easy,but not that accurate,just to have an idea. How?Well, charge the battery to full, then start an app, a game. play that game until the battery is empty,then make a simple math(battery capacity / time) .It's not the most accurate result,but....

You said the charging unit will take the needed current,right?Who said something else?I said there are differences in charging times,caused by the ELECTRIC INTENSITY.If you say it doesn't matter,because it's all 5V tension,then i guess i could extrapolate and say Amazon river and a mountain spring it's the same for you,because they both are flowing waters,right?It doesn't matter all other parameters,just the flow.

I could go more into details and i'm not a specialist.I just like to know how things are working,just to satisfy my curiosity. I have alot of electronic tools/gadgets, i have my own semi-proffesional soldering station,professional digital multimeter and more. I could say new generation batteries have their own processing unit,making them smart batteries(that's why you can't just exchange batteries from one phone to another,although they have same specs).I could also say Li-Ion and Li-Po batteries are charged by impulses and not real DC.But these are details,and no one here cares about them.They just want to know the basics on how to get a better battery life and how to proper use them.

And since we don't know the basics of electro-technics,could you share your vaste knowledge,but without copy-pasting it from wiki?
[LG Optimus G (International)] cickvoa:
Addapter is voltage source. Charging unit is inside mobile phone and it takes amout of current what it needs, ofc has max current limit. When u have voltage source, only way to control current is by resistance that is connected on it. That is.ohms law, basic of electric. Engineers who designed and made charging unit knows their job. Period
[LG Optimus G (International)] kimitza:
only voltage?care to do a small experiment?I could provide you a 5v adapter with 10 amps intensity. will you plug it into your phone?Just for the fun of learning?
[LG Optimus G (International)] cickvoa:
Yes i would. Because adapter IS VOLTAGE SOURCE, so voltage is constant, and current depends on resistant attached to adapter.

If you would give me CURRENT SOURCE of 10A than I wouldnt connect it, because there is constant current and variable voltage. Pls do not go further, your post shows that this is not your area of knowledge.

Just as notice, Im master if science in EE, in which these types of adapters which is use for mobile phones is basic of industrial electronic, so......

Edit: your big post shows that you dont understand electrotechnic, when i come home on a computer ill give you detail review of your post and mistakes
[LG Optimus G (International)] clonfsp:
Please, also post your opinion about what is the best specifications for "wherever you call it the charger" for prolong battery life. The max A I suppost mark a limit for the phone, if current max is below the ideal charging value the that charger would be worse. Or any charger is OK?
[LG Optimus G (International)] cickvoa:
I will im drinking now lol hehe, no prob, just spoke with friend, he has MD in electronics :)

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Ben Ling:
Does your phone bootloader unlocked?

If no you can repair your phone using Sony PC Companion.

Do you make a backup?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] devilmaycry2020:
Thanks for your helps. i've just flash XperiaTX_LT29i_9.1.B.0.411_HK and it ok, before flash LT29i_9.1.B.0.411_Global error although my phone is global version . i dont know why ?
[HTC Wildfire S] snert:
Ok, I have rooted phones before but this one is proving to be a pain. It isn't my phone. It belongs to a mate.

His screen became unresponsive. He searched the web and found that it may well be the digitiser so he bought one off ebay and fitted it himself. All good so far. However, it seems to be a common thing that when you fit a new digitiser it requires calibration and before you can calibrate it, it simply doesn't respond.

So, I have a phone with no usable screen. It turns on and I can see the screen no problem but I cannot get into it. He then turned to me. I found there is a tool to calibrate it which you can install called PG76DIAG. Put this on the root of the SD card and run the bootloader and run it. However it complains it can't run it. I'm not entirely sure why but I read that rooting the phone would mean I could.

So to root the phone I need to set s-off. Fine, I downloaded unrevoked to do this. However this needs me to set USB debugging mode on. As my mate is a technophobe he a) has no idea what that is and b) hasn't turned it on.

As the screen is not working I can't turn it on. So at the moment, I cannot root the device. Does anyone have any ideas how I can root the device or get the screen working?

Thanks.
[HTC Wildfire S] heavy_metal_man:
Ok, first off are you sure its a wildfire s (marvel) and not a wildfire (buzz/bee).

The wildfire s does not have a s-off, except for the cdma one. But the tool you ran would have s-offed it if it was.secondly Can you boot into the bootloader again and tell me what it states.

ie device code name, hboot version and radio version.

Thirdly, if you do have a wildfire s you can still run the diag.nbh if you have a. Goldcard, root not required and that in turn will recalibrate the screen :)
[HTC Wildfire S] snert:
On the bootloader screen it says:

MARVEL PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT-1.03.0000

MICROP-0451

RADIO-7.46.35.08

Jun 2 2011,16:17:50

On your third point I don't know what diag.nbh is and I have no idea what a Goldcard is so I guess the answer is "I don't know" :)
[HTC Wildfire S] heavy_metal_man:
Ok have a read at this http://www.theandroidsoul.com/guide-how-to-create-goldcard-sd-card-for-htc-android-phones-w-video/

A goldcard is used to make htc devices ignore cid checks for ruu's ect. But this will allow you to run the pj76diag.zip which in turn will calibrate your screen. Although you will not gain s-off :)

The website linked in this guide is dead, but i can generate goldcards so bump this thread with your reverse cid and we can give it a bash :)
[HTC Wildfire S] snert:
Ok, I installed Goldcard Helper and ran it and the options I had were mmc0 and mmc1. mmc1 was at the top so I guess when the website says mmc2 it means 1.

Anyway, this is a copy and paste of the number: 00a800130067200547323041534d5402

What next?
[HTC Wildfire S] heavy_metal_man:
ok use this goldcard and follow the guide to patch the file into your micro sd card. it Needs to be the same card you took the cid from.

make sure that if it is your main sd card that you back up everything on it, just incase it needs to be formatted afterwards.

after that you need to run this from your sd card in the bootloader to use the diag file to make the phone boot into the diagnosis file.

that in turn should recalibrate the screen :)
[HTC Wildfire S] snert:
Ok, the PG76IMG.zip file in the second link.

Do I put that in the root of the CD card that I've just made into a goldcard? Do I extract it?

Thanks.
[HTC Wildfire S] heavy_metal_man:
ah, sorry it goes onto the root of the sd card, still zipped and unchanged :)
[HTC Wildfire S] snert:
Cool. Ok I did that. I restarted and chose recovery from the bootloader and I get the red triangle. First of all I get a phone icon with a green circle which then changes to the red triangle.

It did this before I started working on it anyway. Part of me thinks the thing is bricked anyway. Any further ideas?

When I ran it with the goldcard it didn't complain though.

Any other thoughts?
[HTC Wildfire S] heavy_metal_man:
You shouldn't choose recovery at all. You shouldn't get the chance, the phone should find the diag file and jump straight into it. Also, that is just the stock recovery screen, its fine. This leads me to think the goldcard has failed. Did the hboot search the card or just allow immediate control from the volume buttons?
[HTC Wildfire S] snert:
I followed the instructions on that webpage to the letter (honest)

I tried it again. It shows the PG76IMG.zip loading and then checking but it then just goes to the main main after that.
[HTC Wildfire S] heavy_metal_man:
My mistake :o I've linked the wrong file :-/ download this, http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=785885&d=1321564172 and extract onto the root of your sd card. Then try again, you shouldn't need to re-goldcard unless you have formatted it since.
[HTC Wildfire S] snert:
Sorry for being such a n00b but I assume with this one I extract the RAR file and put both the files inside onto the root?
[HTC Wildfire S] snert:
Ok I did that but it says Security Failed. If I try and open the zip file in Windows it says the file is invalid.
[HTC Wildfire S] snert:
Ok I guessed that the nbh file is the one I need so I put just that one in the root. Rebooted and it parses the file and then says security fail, update failed.

I reckon I'm gonna tell my mate to buy a new phone.
[HTC Wildfire S] heavy_metal_man:
Hmmm :-/

Sounds like its probably for the best. Unless the goldcard is failing that should be working....
[HTC Wildfire S] snert:
I'm going to give it one more go from start to finish and I'll let you know. If it fails I'll tell him to dig deep and buy a new phone
[HTC Wildfire S] heavy_metal_man:
ok pal, if it fails try a different sd card as not all can be made into goldcards :)
[HTC Wildfire S] shenery:
Hey. I am having the same problem. I've managed to get my cid. Would there be any chance you could make me up a gold card image for it please?

Here's the cid I got from goldcard helper.

Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2 Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean updates reportedly delayed

The Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean update for the Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2 is apparently delayed according to a publication.

Sam Mobile posted on Twitter a short message to advise that the update has been delayed, with the “new TW [TouchWiz]” apparently being to blame:

The news isn’t confirmed at this time, but the publication has provided accurate information on Samsung products and related software updates so far.

We have no idea what issues may have delayed the Android 4.2.2 update, as the publication doesn’t mention them at this time. While the updates for the two 2012 flagship handsets have been delayed, it's not like we had clear release dates for them before.

Many Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2 versions are currently running Android 4.1.2, so at least most users are officially on a Jelly Bean version while the wait for the latest software version to be released.
