[Optimus One, P500, V General] go4saket:
Hello friends!

I have to buy a new phone with Android 2.2. I saw this phone and found it to be pretty reasonable. Problem is that none of the dealers here are ready to give a demo of the phone and I dont know how does the display looks,the quality of the touch screen and the speed of the phone.

I had been using Samsung Galaxy 3 before this and got really pissed off with its speed, although the touch screen and the screen colors were very good.

Can anyone tell me how does the phone behave. Moreover, some one told me that the touch screen of this phone doesnt behave like the Samsung phones. Unlike Samsung touch screen in which we just need to give a slight touch for the phone to react, in this phone we have to press slightly. Is it true?

Please help.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Devil_Dude:
Yea its a liitle bit true about touch but with me it happned only in apps when i tried to make my fingers fly over the phone.

A little advice buy lg optimus Q becasue its better!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] FnH84:
Why don't you watch review videos on YouTube to get an idea of the device? Optimus One is my first Android phone, and I really love it. Have had it for about a month now, but still can't stop showing people what it can do, and playing with it all the time till the battery drains out LOL. For the price, it's a really good device, compared to others like xperia, or htc (from the same price range).
[Optimus One, P500, V General] go4saket:
How much will Optimus Q cost in India???
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Zerobarat1:
How about browsing your local stores mate? :)

There are some slight issues with O1 , some of them being fixed by mik and caveman's work. Also Noejn and Paolo , the authors of the best ROMS , at least in my opinion , hold title to : Void(best overall ) , Prime(stability ) , Megatron( best performance ) and Paolo's LOL rom which is the only one to cook a 2.2.2 version of android .

Also the phone has officially received Android 2.2.2 recently and will receive pretty soon Gingerbread .

So if you're in doubt about the support and popularity that such a budget received then stay assured that you have nothing to worry .
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ccdreadcc:
Cost is exactly same as galaxy 3
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sarfaraz1989:
Yup i had to choose between O1 and galaxy 3..I went for O1..A week later samsung COpies LG and releases three budget android using same chipset as our O1...QUalcomm msm 7227..(Samsung Galaxy mIni, Gio and something like that)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] go4saket:
What about Sansung Galaxy Ace against LG Optimus
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Devil_Dude:
it will cost around 15k or rs 15,ooo in india.

but if u r low on budget then p500 is best choice i have it for a month and cannot let even anyone else touch it!!!!!!!!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] lekhwani:
Samsung doesn't give more than 256 MB ram on its non flagship phones. P500 has 512. Only this feature is enough for you to make a choice.

Samsung is playing a very dirty game by restricting the ram of all its newly launched non-luxury phones. I7500 died only due to ram. Spica is taking its last breaths.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] lekhwani:
www.newtechnology.co.in/olive-smart-price/

Olive smart is a very good option.

Killer features.

Gingerbread

1 ghz and adreno

2 gb rom / 512 MB ram

DLNA support

4.1 inch screen

Flash support

HD Video recording

Secondary Camera

HDMI PORT
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sam811:
are you sure they uses Qualcomm processor? i think they use Samsung's inhouse SOCs. but i think that can be tested by overclocking the chips to 760-800Mhz.

not really worth the extra 3.5k INR. you are getting just a bigger screen, better & usable camera. what you loose are: better screen (cause both uses same resolution), ram, battery life, weight.

if you use the camera lot & ok with less battery life, go for Ace. but Optimus One still has lot of life left. also i doubt Ace will ever taste official Gingerbread.

relabelled Huawei IDEOS X6. compare the specs & pics.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] lekhwani:
You are right but its a good phone.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Devil_Dude:
Buy the optimus one! its to good and u will become addicted to it.

Belive me dude its real!

one of my friend took it for only 5 mins he couldn't leave it!!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] FnH84:
I personally will never buy another Samsung phone again. Maybe Android, but even then I'd be very careful... From my experience their software is buggy, and they don't update it either. It makes no difference if the model is 200 euros or 400 euros, you'll get one or two updates until your model is old already.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] go4saket:
Are you sure that Optimus has 512 MB RAM because if it has, thats some thing to go for. Moreover, can some one please tell me the colour quality and touch screen quality of LG. As per the specks of the phone, Optimus has only 256K colour while all other phones these days has 16M colours. As for the touchscreen, do we really have to press a little for the screen to react. Moreover, does a Optimus have a QVGA or a HVGA screen type??
[Optimus One, P500, V General] bioan:
It has 512 MB RAM and HVGA res. Why do you call 256k ONLY ? It's enough, 16M is crap, you cannot see the difference between them. (don't get me wrong, but I would not pay more for the same image/clarity/brightness on a TFT/LCD panel; AMOLED is something else)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] go4saket:
Any idea as to when will any of the below mentioned models be launched in India and whats going to be an approx price:

LG Optimus 2X SU660

LG Optimus 3D P920

LG P990 Optimus Speed

LG Optimus Black

LG Optimus Mach LU3000

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kooldc20:
I posted in another section but there were no replies. Here's another one: (Sorry)

Hi, I bought my Samsung Captivate in December from Rogers Canada and I decided to flash to Att Froyo 2.2 since I wanted the latest version.

Unfortunately, because I'm a dumb noob, I can't seem to root, uninstall any Att crap, or do anything. I've tried doing the root applications, but it doesnt work (gives error message on Download mode).

I really want to take advantage of my phone (hoping not to make stupid mistakes again) so it would be awesome if someone could show me how to downgrade back to Rogers 2.1, remove the ATT startup screen and upgrade to Gingerbread 2.3, step by step. This would be very appreciated.

I've left my number 7789987933 just in case if this is too complex. Thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
based on your post you dont want gingerbread yet, trust me on that. you should probably use kies to upgrade to the rogers froyo. or flash a custom rom that already has root and busybox and various tweeks. im using andromeda from the armani captivate rom, it's a bit of a memory hog but has all the touchwiz features working like the music player in the notification bar and lock screen and the battery life is amazing.

im not totally familiar with rooting the rogers version or flashing it to stock roger but im pretty sure root doesn't involve download mode. if you do get it rooted you can flash a kernel with cwm recovery and flash a custom rom.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venomio:
No, download mode should only be used if you're flashing back to a stock rom (such as the I897UCJF6).

The best idea for you to do right now is to run the 'One click root' application that TGA_Gunnman has made.

I'll give you the steps here:

1. Download this.

2. Also install this.

3. Make sure your phone is on USB Debug mode: (MENU > Settings > Applications > Developement > USB debugging = Checked )

4. For Windows x86 and x64 systems make sure that the Samsung Drivers are installed....

If you use a 64-bit Windows, install this.

If you use a 32-bit Windows, install this instead.

5. Extract the contents of GalaxyS_One-Click_Root_All_Models.rar to a folder.

6. Connect your phone to your PC via the USB cable and launch the file "Galaxy_One-Click_Root.exe" file.

7. Click the "One-Click Root" button. This will launch a command shell follow the instructions in the CMD window, and MAKE SURE YOU FOLLOW THESE STEPS CAREFULLY.

If you really do need any further help, just send me a PM... Or alternatively follow the main topic here.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
first off, ATT 2.2 hasnt been released yet for captivate (supposedly later today) dont know how you flased it (supposedly). Rogers in canada released it Jan 6. you should have flashed that (rogers boy) if you were going to do stock roms. but you are flasing anyway.. there are plenty of custom roms that are stripped down stock (no bloat just like you were trying to do), or tweaked up. shoulda flashed one of them.

and the only gingerbread roms for captivate are "look a-like" not real 2.3 dont bother.

so, you obviously didnt read enough first but here.....

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pastamancer1:
Hi,

I recently flashed to athena from skyraider 3.x, and i noticed that in the earlier revision, facebook syncing to contacts was broken, but supposedly fixed in 1.2, however due to a compiler difference in cwm 2 to 3, the update needed edify instead of amend.

I found a supposed fixed update, however after installing that, I am still unable to sync facebook via the accounts and sync section of my settings. Has anyone else had this problem??

So I now use my Moto Atrix as my music player like I did with my Captivate. The only problem is, is that my music player randomly stops in the middle of the song. I go back to the player to press play and the song starts over......

this is one of MANY problems that I have been having with the Atrix.

PLEASE HELP!!!!!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CC Lemon:
Not sure what that issue is but you might want to try another music program. I messed around with the included player for a short bit but I got winamp and I really like it so far. There's quite a few other good options out there.

Hope you're able to figure something out.

Do you know of anything like the player on the iPod touch? Or something that works as good as the Samsung Android music player?

I've got the same problem.But one thing I am sure is that when you use task manager to kill background program,don't kill those you are not familiar with.I tried several times to find out what's impacting the music player,but finally,it turns out to be obscure.I mean when I erase everything from the kill list,music wont stop in sleep mode,but I cannot prescisely tell who are they.It seems that several programs together work on it.Most suspect those whoes string having 'media' in them.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost2030:
Some people just react and blame instead of trying to find the solution.

I went through that once due to a task killer. I ignored the music app from the task killer, but eventually realized the task killer was not needed!

Don't know if this is a fix for everyone but I was having the same problem. I removed the gallery app from the auto-kill list and it fixed the issue. I tested it several times by adding and removing the gallery app to and from the auto-kill list. Every time it was on the list, the music would cut out after sleep. Every time I removed it, everythnig functioned mormally.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djvtek:
ok i did my own tests today adding programs to auto-kill list and playing back audio in between. the playback issue only appears when the screen go dark . i focused first on apps that in my opinion had nothing to do with media and after all this time consuming process i found that adding certain programs creating the problem . here is the DO NOT list and hope this work for all of ya ;)

1) gallery

2) purchased media*

3) music

* im sure this folder was created after sync with my itunes . i used motorola media link app ( free download from motorola site) which work like charm on my mac pro adding exactly that i checked. keep in mind that your case could be different depending on type of sync or adding media method so its up to you finding the correct folder. now if you sync via the mentioned moto app you maybe having other folders on list like podcasts or whatever you decided add to your phone storage . i cant confirm this because only folder i synced was purchased media . post your findings... peace!

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenyu73:
+1 auto-kill = BAD JUJU

If your going to use a TaskManager, use it only to manually stop rogue processes or apps. Never let it run on its own.

I used OSMonitor to kill off apps as needed. There's tons out there, but only use one that doesn't run automatically.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkSi08:
Agreed... I'm not sure why you feel the need to kill apps on a phone with a gig of RAM. The only thing it does is kills your battery when you have apps that continually try to restart, then the task killer kills them.

After running my phone without a reboot since Monday, and NO task killing, I still have around 250MB free, and have no problems running Dungeon Defenders, etc. No lag, no anything. Mind you, I run a live wallpaper, as well.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rred:
I've used MUSIC, Winamp, and PowerAmp and had no problems with any of them stopping by themselves.

There are some differences, some players will still enable the volume keys after the phone has locked and gone black, others won't. But all three have played without problems, and none of them complain if there are more than 64 artists--the way everything did on the Captivate.

Could it be that you have a bad headphone? Some players will quit when the headphone is unplugged, and resume when it is plugged back in. So a dirty or intermittent headphone connection or wire could cause playback to stop and start.

I'd check that out by swapping in another headphone, or checking the "pause when headphones removed" option if there's one in your player.

[G Tablet General] Neoprimal:
I use 4.2.4 and it's solid as a rock.

What was your install/upgrade process? Did you wipe your data and clear cache before moving from your latest/current ROM?

When doing any major ROM switching, even between say, TnT Lite 3.x to 4.x, it is always recommended that you wipe all user data and clear cache. This is unnecessary for supplemental/addon updates.

If you did not do that, then I would hazard a bet that something got left over in the system from the last ROM you came from and is now causing this problem with your current setup.

You can try just wiping cache and dalvik in CWM to see if that fixes it since it's essentially just your browser, right? If that doesn't work then I'd just go ahead and backup what you can and do a data wipe aka factory reset.

Good Luck.
[G Tablet General] lsu205:
it may be just your browser. you could try dolphin hd or xscope. if they work, then it's the other browser. Or you could use Titanium Backup then wipe data for the browser.
[G Tablet General] z32carlos:
well i installed the tnt lite 2.x first and then i just jumped all the way to 4.2.4, i honestly never really used titanioum backup when doing the updates. maybe i should have now that i think about it, but the only thing that doesnt work is browsing the web it sucks and i did try to use other browser but still the same problem. when you say do a factory reset do you mean the one off of clockwork with the 2048 whatever thing or the factory reset in the settings menu?

[Atrix 4G General] CC Lemon:
What exactly are you looking for or expecting in a different dual core phone? When you say smoother... do you mean in design or actual function?
[Atrix 4G General] xs2k:
Judging from the video reviews of the LG 2X, the browser and overall phone seem much more fluid on the 2X. Try loading up engadget or pocketnow.com and it's annoyingly slow to browse on the Atrix. Even my 1.5 year old Ipod touch browses better than this phone. I tried Firefox, and it's a little bit better, but not my much.

Another issue: The phone freezes up sometimes opening text messages. I'm also getting error messages like "the message must contain valid recipients and content" even though I'm immediately "replying" to a message...lol

Overall feel = too much plastic.
[Atrix 4G General] CC Lemon:
The experience with this phone seems to vary a lot...

I've had almost no issues and everything seems to run exceptionally smooth to me. I'm coming from an iPhone 3GS and browsing is without a doubt better on the Atrix. I can scroll entire pages like engadget without it hesitating to load while my iphone is constantly having to pause for a second to make the page viewable if I scroll beyond a crawl. I've used my friends iphone 4 quite a bit as well and I'd have to say that I think the atrix works better for browsing than that as well. Definitely closer than my 3GS, but the atrix seems to handle it just a little bit better.

Texts have worked fine for me... nothing spectacular but not worse than other smartphones I've used.

Build quality definitely doesn't seem to be the same as my 3GS, but I like the design of the atrix a bit more. It's hard to beat the "solid" feel of the iphone though. I'd say the atrix is at least on par with the average smartphone, but definitely not the best.
