[LG Optimus 2x] Mehrsau:
Good Morning folks,

as some of you are already proud owners of a LG2x, I would like to know how the battery lifetime really is. Are you guys satisfied? How intensive are you using your device?

It would be nice, if you can describe what you are running, like wifi, gps and so on... pretty sure you know what to write to give me and the others a clear view on the battery lifetime ;-)

cheers,

Manuel
[LG Optimus 2x] xmoo:
Yesterday I got the phone.

On very very very hard use it took me about 7 hours for the phone to be 0%. That is kinda good in my eyes.

Today I'm doing normal use, to see how the battery goes.

I withnised 100% tot around 60% went kinda fast, but from 60% till 0% took a while :P

So stay tuned for the today test.
[LG Optimus 2x] Hojou:
I got the phone the day before yesterday started charging it. Then in the afternoon it was fully charged and i started to play around with it. It did good but then today i had it fully charged overnight and now - at around 15:00 it dropped below 15%! I hadn't been using it for other than a few calls, a few texts and less than 10 minutes fooling around.

Something is up - i don't know what, but the battery info shows most battery usage was drained due to cell standby and mobile standby...

I don't know what really caused this :( Other than that i love this phone, i just hope i find the reason for this insane drain soon - i tried rebooting and even installed advanced task killer
[LG Optimus 2x] BatfinkUK1:
Hello, I cant really help much on the battery issue other than to say give it a few more cycles before getting too upset.

The last new battery I had in my iPhone took a week to really settle down.

I would uninstall advanced task killer as I believe it has issues with froyo and is not really needed.
[LG Optimus 2x] Hojou:
Ok thanks - i think i will then :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Arawac:
had the phone 2 days now, and feel like the battery drains fairly fast, had a BB before this and im not used to having to charge everyday. Will se how it goes the next couple of days.
[LG Optimus 2x] Mehrsau:
Ok, it seems a lot of people already got their device. Is there someone who could try to unload (by heavy use or something else) and reload the battery again and again to get a feeling of the behavior after some loads?

Thanks!

Update: I have an update from a German guy for you who claims to found out that the service "nvrm_daemon" is the one which consumes the most power. Anyone an idea what it is? The "nv" in the name sounds like nvidia...
[LG Optimus 2x] Hund:
nvrm has something to do with the NVIDIA kernel module.
[LG Optimus 2x] atkhobby:
Yes, it seems related to Tegra.

I googled and found this little quote about the offending service on a site dealing with the Toshiba AC100 that also use the Tegra 2 chipset:
[LG Optimus 2x] domazdk:
Isnt it coz that dual core isnt supported very well in 2.2?

Should be fixed in 2.3.
[LG Optimus 2x] Ben86:
hey xmoo, how come your always one of the first having such nice devices? if i remember right you had the hd2 pretty fast as well back in okt. 2009.

i wanna have it toooo :D
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
48 hours.

Way better than the Nexus One. Not much more I can say.

Most importantly, not much more I will say on battery. It's too subjective and circumstance specific.
[LG Optimus 2x] Mehrsau:
Would be very nice if you could quote us a small summary of your current system configuration :-)
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
I should be clear - I do not mean +48 hours battery, I mean I have used the phone for only 48 hours... :) This includes charging.

But still, much better than my Nexus One. At the same time with the same apps and usage I have 40% and on my Nexus I would have 15%.

We all still need some days (~1 week) for the battery to settle.
[LG Optimus 2x] xmoo:
Dunno, I think I got the good connections :P

I have noticed how longer the device works, the battery gets better.

Today from 8 till 17:00 my batter cme from 100% to 69%.

I mailed, whatsapped and texted a lot and 1 small phone call.
[LG Optimus 2x] Ben86:
okay in Eindhoven its in stock at a mobilephone shop. i seriously thought about to drive to the shop ... its about 260km from Paderborn :D

but lg said three days ago the 2x will be available end of next week. so now its up to amazon ;) and its time to say goodbye to htc ... im really curious about the lg 2x

@xmoo thanks for your impressions of battery life. i was a little afraid of power consumption because of the dual core but that sounds fair
[LG Optimus 2x] belgano:
hi, 72 hours with the Optimus 2x and i have the same problem with the battery, it drains so fast!! with few use from 7am till 17pm 100%-32% !!! but i think today is better..

here in Antwerp,Belgium there is in stock at pdashop and gsmwijzer

kind regards
[LG Optimus 2x] dennis.busman:
hi ~~ just want to ans. the owner of 2X ....

is your handset "Made In Korea" ??
[LG Optimus 2x] smokeweedevery:
no its made in china:)
[LG Optimus 2x] cypresftw:
Ok i'm doing a real-life test atm after a few charging cycles.

What did I do/ have I on?

Have I on: Everything (gps, data, wifi (if possible),...)

What did I do: Some gaming, few youtube movies, few short calls, watching mails, some internet browsing, send a few texts.

I'm using the app : Juicedefender in combination with ultimatejuice (this prolonged my battery 2.14x!!!

How long? : Atm i'm using my cell (from full charge) for 44 hours and I still have 39% left! This means that i could get it to run for 3 days on 1 charge!

Note: this is after doing a few cycles, out-of-the-box use gets you the day around!
[LG Optimus 2x] ZajacPL:
Mine is Made In Korea, but the battery is made in china.

On the box it says: "Made in Korea", under the battery on phone it says: "Made in Korea" and on battery it says: "Made In China" ;D

Mine 2x is the one from Netherlands
[LG Optimus 2x] SykesAT:
Thanks for the early reviws. Just an fyi but deep cycling lithium ion batteries is not needed and harmful to our bateries.
[LG Optimus 2x] dennis.busman:
that mean the handset is made in korea ~~~ it's great ;)

but , in Hong Kong , LG 2X will in stock on 23/3 :(
[LG Optimus 2x] PartyBent:
Are Juicedefender not just the free version of ultimatejuice ?
[LG Optimus 2x] londahl:
Mine's the same, made in Korea.

Bought in Denmark
[LG Optimus 2x] fen_nyc:
Hi there. Can you tell me what is "deep cycling?" Thanks!
[LG Optimus 2x] aMpeX:
deep cycling means fully discharging and then recharging your battery.

The batteries need some charges until they unleash their full potential, but they do not like being discharged to a minimum, so charge your battery whenever you can. A Memory effect cannot occur.
[LG Optimus 2x] fen_nyc:
Thanks! I will def. keep this in mind!
[LG Optimus 2x] xmoo:
I noticed this indeed.

First couple of days my batt was max 10+/- hours.

Today from 9am till now 10:14 I got like 50% left...

And I did 30min browsing, 12 text msg, 8 mails, and like 35 whatsapp chats.

So it's going good.

I also changed the buttons backlight. From 2mah to 0.2mah.
[LG Optimus 2x] djmcnz:
Has anybody tried the battery usage logging app in the hidden menu?

Hidden Menu | Module Test | Charging Test

Saves a battery log to sdcard...
[LG Optimus 2x] SykesAT:
As said above, deep cycling is fully charging and discharging. That's not to say don't let your battery ever run out, but it's not needed

ever

. There is no memory affect, so there's no reason to stress your battery by deep cycling.

Google: lithium ion batteries deep cycling.
[LG Optimus 2x] Zanr Zij:
Owner got 2X from Netherland, please let me know: does this phone have option to switch between 3G and 2G? Tks.
[LG Optimus 2x] jan1000:
Yes, this phone can handleiding 2g and 3G,

Settings are: auto(2g/3G), 2g only, 3G only
[LG Optimus 2x] Zanr Zij:
Nice info. This option will be important to effect baterry life. The Korea version (SU660) don't have it. Moto Atrix 4G don't have it too.
[LG Optimus 2x] planetj:
How did you change the backlight? :)
[LG Optimus 2x] xmoo:
Enable hidden menu!
[LG Optimus 2x] IsoNick:

[Touch GSM General] thinman873:

[Touch GSM General] userfree163:

[Touch GSM General] nightly_shadow:
Hardware issues is the highest rate, after fell down.

[Touch Pro2 CDMA] pathum84:
Hi,

First of all i'm new to this and this is my first post :eek:. and may be i'm doing a stupid experiment :p. But just thought to share with you guys. I have a verizon tp2 and i stripped it and implemented a flex with video call camera. and installed Rotastrain Rhodium dialer for all. But still couldn't make a video call from my device.(with sim unlocked and with HSPL. but not security unlocked. what's security unlock means??? is it differ from SIM unlocing???) does any one tried this before??? if have please share your xp with me. and also please post your ideas as well.. :D
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] robo man:
This is totally different from what info u r seeking.. But I got one question for u :confused:

I also have an unlocked touch diamond which i use as a paper weight.I thought its totally useless in Sri Lanka. Did u find any means of using a CDMA mobile here??? :D
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] pathum84:
my TP2 is a world phone can operate cdma,gsm & hsdpa. if your one is a world phone then you can use it with SL operators. otherwise it's totally useless. In my case everythings working fine except video call feature. jusat wanted to make it enable too. coz i love tp2. :D
[Networking] Rimsha:
WHAT ABOUT THE CCNA course will it help me in netwroking ?
[Networking] ExMM:
If you mean the CCNA Certification for Cisco, yes, it will help you in networking generally, but it's specific for Cisco hardware's solutions.

There are anyway different level of certifications, it also depends on what you are planning to get.
[Networking] Laramie1997:
The other guy is right, but the main focus of the CCNA is around routing. The hardware, programming, and protocols behind it. There are a ton of stuff to get under your belt as it's not something you can just buy a book and study for. You will be quizzed on general command line output for that cert and if you haven't had the lab time and or other experience with Cisco command line on routers, you will fail horribly. While it may be for Cisco only, most of what you will learn through your study for the CCNA can and does apply to other routers and switches. This is not to be confused with that $40.00 netgear sitting on your desk. Not at all. When I say router, I'm talking $2,000 boxes that you find in most enterprise networks.

Cisco now has another certification that I urge you to get first if you're serious about getting into large scale networking... I can't remember the name of it for the life of me right now, but it's a certification that is comparable to COMP TIA's NET+ certification.

You will have fun with the Cisco cult though. I know I am.

[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] dude0014:
Im a medical student and I really would love to be able to use the newly available Android Medscape app (free from the market) on my phone.

Unfortunately, it says in description of the app that it may have problems with "rooted" phones. Im assuming it means our HD2's running android on NAND as well, because after installing the App on my phone, I am unable to update/download the Clinical reference data required for the app to work offline.

It gives the error "Internet connectivity was interrupted..Please try again"

Any help from the developers or anyone else would be very greatly appreciated :)
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] kinsago:
Looking at the description and the error you gave, have you tried disabling any ad-blocking software? It may be something cooked into the ROM - if so, try asking the dev how to disable it. DLing now - i'll post back what I find.

.............................

EDIT:

Ok, having found this question asked on the thread for the ROM I use, you can remove medscape from the adblock 'hosts' list. (find it in \system\etc).

Original Post URL: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=11521445&highlight=block#post11521445

I had to copy the file to PC before editing and copied back again using droidexplorer.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] dude0014:
Thanks for the reply. I forgot to mention the ROM im using. Its Core Droid DHD 1.5, and it seems you may be right. It says in the description of the ROM that the "Adds are Blocked (Host files modified)". Is there any way to reverse this host file change?
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] dude0014:
Fixed it with the help of the developer of the Core Droid ROM. Just opened the app "Add free" and hit "revert". Restored the original host file. Medscape works now.
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] webbiest:
im having the same issue and clicking the "revert" bottom on AdFree did not fix it
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] gpszkit:
I have uninstalled AdFree and have the same problem all the time. Anybody fixed this?
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] mp_ruda:
i had the same problem!

After i revert the hosts file in ad-free, medscape did not update the reference!

So what i did:

I did not unistall ad-free, but:

- i revert the host file 3 times in a row;

- i stopped the access of AD Free from SuperUser (root access);

- and i restart medscape (i killed the process with automatic task killer) and start it again;

- and voila, my htc g1 is updating the reference while i text.

(i don't know what are the steps that make medscape update, but i guess, is the revert host file and restart the app, to it starts didn't knowing that can't access that host to update)

I hope this help you!

Good luck
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] danyvw:
It works for me, reverted host files, stopped Adfree acces to Superuser and voila!! Medscape is updating again. Thanx
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] saahir68:
how to correct medscape installation please?thx\
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] killbill88:
SOLVED!

Just got an OTA update for my flyer and software got updated to version 2.27.1540.32

The android version is 2.2.4 while sense is 1.0

Just for the record, AdFree only works on ROOTED devices. i mentioned in another thread on xda that adfree does not work for me. with this OTA update, my Medscape is finally installing as i type this - - -
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] veeruvims:
Just kill the AdFree app and immediately run Medscape app,it'll definitely take the update.I did the same and it worked :-)
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] wisnu19:

[*]install again medscape

[*]and the update reference should work again..done !!
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] lalauri089:
not solved for me!

Hi everyone!

Well, I've experienced the same "connectivity error" as everyone with a root cellphone, after reinstalling medscape app at my cell. I never had AdFree, and even though I'm able to found the hosts file and take a look of it with my pc it says absolutely nothing about medscape (only 127.0.0.1 localhost and emptyness after), so I guess I must be getting the wrong file or not accesing to it correctly?

I've tried everything you said, but is still not working.

I'm pretty new with android, and I would really aprecciate you help, given the fact that this is one of my favorities app!
[HD2 Android Themes and Apps] ivaneris:
i just rename file host in /system/etc via root explorer..then it works like a charm :)

[Atrix 4G General] roscoejackson:
Occasionally a few games will not open. When I tap their icons, absolutely nothing happens. This is the case for me right now with Angry Birds, Atilt 3D Labyrinth, and Pinball Deluxe.

Other times they will open just fine. I tried rebooting, and upon reboot, the icon thumbnails wouldn't load, it was just showing the default little gear looking icon, and i couldn't click on the games. eventually, the normal icons appeared. after a few minutes i got angry birds to open... now it's back to a state where these games will not open. everything else opens fine..
[Atrix 4G General] Ciloteille:
Well do you have your 30 days buyers remorse or inurance? Some of these issues could simply be fixxed with a factory wipe. But with this art atrix mass issue of 3g/4g truama id just take it back and get one that works perfectly. My first one did that. My second one had music/touch screen issues. And my third one had one of the two led burn out so flash was horrible. My forth one is flawless. Still got 15 days of buyers remotes for free swaps till I need instant swap outs :D
[Atrix 4G General] roscoejackson:
well.. i've already on my 4th one, because of poor call quality.. the 4th one still suffers from somewhat crappy call quality, but i'm going to stick with the phone and hope for some type of fix down the road.

this game thing seems more like a software issue and i really don't feel like exchanging any more. you know how that crap goes. get a different one, find a new issue..

[Optimus One, P500, V General] yanuk:
Here's how you can access your memory card via wifi even when your phone isn't connected to any routers. It is some form of "adhoc" connection.

On your phone, install "File Expert" from market this allows you to access your files via HTTP or FTP

On your PC, you can use Filezilla or any FTP transfer prog. HTTP is also fine.

Turn on wifi tethering on your phone and connect your laptop to it.

Open File Expert and use either FTP or HTTP and follow the config instructions :D tadah!

This came about when I needed to access my memory card while I was out without a usb cable and bluetooth transferring a large file took waaaay too long

If your phone supports FTP transfer you can also transfer between phones using this method.

Enjoy!

I really like cm7 and want to keep using it however no mms is terrible and no text is a deal breaker.

Tried one radio update to an older stock with 0 effect and restored my apn list with a stock one from my carrier (mobipcs, Hawaii only) also with 0 effect.

Any ideas on what might be wrong?

Also one more piece of info...

One of the Roms I installed was in the form of an exe that flashed the us cellular mod and unrooted the phone.

I appreciate any input or ideas.
