[LG Optimus 2x] 1695:
Yep I have it installed, and yep it was paused but in memory when it froze, but I would be reaaaaaaaally surprised if there was a link.

By the way, yesterday I charged the phone from my computer up to 50%. The phone woke me up around 6AM "please charge", battery was around 2%... So 48% lost in one idle night oO.
[LG Optimus 2x] jetdevil24:
Last night I had a reboot too, but angry birds is not installed on my O2x.
[LG Optimus 2x] :
Angry birds has nothing to do with the reboots! It was a coincidence when I've had the reboot that I was starting to play Angry Birds, just that!

[LG Optimus 2x] jetdevil24:
oohh, sorry I've misunderstood
[LG Optimus 2x] mikeyd85:
Twice my phone has frozen during charge (using LG and HTC Hero charger) during the night when charging from less than 20%.

Charges from > 20% appear to have no issues.

Charges from < 20% with wifi and mobile data off also appeared to have no issues.

Can't say I've had any random reboots. I've disabled F-Secure through the app itself (it was annoying me) and I use Launcher Pro Plus instead of that horrid LG UI.

All on a stock, unrooted ROM.

Edit: One thing I haven't mentioned is that my longer , successful overnight charges have all been ended by the phone's alarm going off in the morning. the phone has been fully charged throughout the night and woken fine like this.

Edit 2: Can all UK users with the issue visit: http://www.lg.com/uk/support/index.jsp and go on live chat. Speak to the representative and ask them to raise a "Voice of Customer" notice.

This will help get the issue escalated.
[LG Optimus 2x] durzagott:
I have done this, as you said. The agent I spoke with said that she's already had one of these to escalate today and assured me it would get attention. Regarding the problems, however, her only advice was to return the handset.
[LG Optimus 2x] mikeyd85:
Yeah, that'd be by myself. I'm hoping if a few of them get raised, or at least one gets referenced a few times, the ball will get rolling.
[LG Optimus 2x] TCARMICH:
I've done this too, but he said just send the handset back to the retailer.
[LG Optimus 2x] pulsation:
Had reboot instead of shutdown yesterday after connecting my phone to my computer, and two random shutdowns today despite no problem while charging tonight. However, looks like each random shutdown drains the battery quite a lot. (going from about 70% to less than 50%). Maybe this could be due to something like a short-circuit?
[LG Optimus 2x] :
As I've read earlier that someone at LG told a user to use a 1.8V SIM card and the one I was using is a 1.8V SIM card, I've decided to switch for my very old Telecel (old portuguese Vodafone) SIM card that it's a 3V one! This switch was done after a 74h period without any reboot or hang.

For who wants to check if it's SIM card is 1.8V or 3V, read this small article and look at the photos.

Clock is ticking to see how it handles with the 3V SIM card.

Mike

EDIT: Just to note that when I've had the reboot and the freeze, I was using the 3V SIM card that it's from my main nr. and as I didn't want to risc loosing calls or reboots during calls, I've switched the SIM cards.
[LG Optimus 2x] kostasalfa:
Nice findings,keep us updated! Allthough 74 hours uptime are reachable sometimes even in phones with problems!
[LG Optimus 2x] 1695:
I had a freeze with a 1.8V SIM card... Never had a reboot though.
[LG Optimus 2x] lmerega:
Freeze and several reboots with 1.8 V SIM card :(

BTW: As i can read, LG is asking to return the phone to the reseller. They perhaps found a hardware bug?

If it were software, maybe they would tell it... don't you think?
[LG Optimus 2x] mikeyd85:
I don't think they have this down as an issue for more than one or two devices, and so are doing swaps as a default response.

My 2nd reboot this morning :(

first reboot happen during midnight while i was sleep suddenly heard sound from my LG..though it was my sms.

Both reboot happen while on standby..no charging or phone call or play with it.. :(
[LG Optimus 2x] bryant_16:
Yours rooted?
[LG Optimus 2x] doccocaubai:
i faced with that problem too. My phone sometime hang when i play game.

I have to remove battery and put it back. :(

Maybe this is the firmware problem. Hope LG fix it soon
[LG Optimus 2x] naimmkassim:
Nope.

All stock.

BUT mine only reboot by it self.

Not hang etc like others facing which they had to take out the battery.
[LG Optimus 2x] rockerduck:
no more reboots since the hard reset done last thursday.
[LG Optimus 2x] bryant_16:
Is the hard reset same as the factory reset?
[LG Optimus 2x] rockerduck:
I'm not shure but I think it's deeper...

you have to press Power+volume_down for more than 10 seconds

The phone remains rooted

(I did not have the black screen issue - only reboots)
[LG Optimus 2x] follo:
I've got some restarts and freezes for some days after purchase, but now all the problems seem to be gone.

Restarts stop after a long charging of about 8-9 hours (that was not the first charge) and freezes stop after removing the external SD (ntfs).

I use both the original charger and another charger (Samsung generic AC to USB adapter with 1A of output current).

Phone with stock rom 2.2.2 italian V10a

Kernel 2.6.32.9

NOTE: at the same period when freeze problems stop I've also uninstalled the noled software; I don't know if this software can cause freezing but I've noted that every freeze was coming just after a new incoming SMS or a missed call notification (both notifications managed by noled software). Now I use "Optimus 2X Touch LED notifications" without any problem.
[LG Optimus 2x] rockerduck:
V10s?

Shure?
[LG Optimus 2x] nold-i-spolen:
As i mentioned earlier in the thread, i have returned my O2X for a replacement phone.

I just recieved an email telling me that a new unit is on the way by post..........is there anything you guys want me to test with my brand new phone so we can get closer to an answer to this problem?

I have planed to root it using OneClickRoot method

(but in am willing to wait with this if it is needed for some kind of testing)

Quote this message (so it's more easy for me to find) if you woul like me to do some testing on it.........and do it before i recieve my new unit

I expect to receive my phone during tomorrow afternoon (live in +01 time zone, Denmark).........so lets say i need to have any requests no later then 1200 local time.......just to be sure.......

I rely hope that i get a unit without all the rebooting/freezing stuff!!!!!!
[LG Optimus 2x] follo:
V10a sorry :p
[LG Optimus 2x] 1695:
Had a freeze previously with my first O2X, now got a reboot with my new one...

Just finished charging it on my computer, when it said "Charge complete" I pressed "ok", then I wanted to activated mass storage to transfer some music to the externalSD, pressed "activate" and it rebooted... Bottom line is : after it finished charging, it wasn't rebooting yet, it rebooted only when I accessed to the externalSD...
[LG Optimus 2x] naimmkassim:
I also facing the same reboot after receive sms notification. Where is this noled software you talking about. I can not find it.
[LG Optimus 2x] 1695:
Never had any trouble with notification...

But it makes two of us having reboot/freeze trouble linked to external SD card... ?
[LG Optimus 2x] pulsation:
Great :) hope this will fix some issues. Did this update wipe your data?
[LG Optimus 2x] hajan0512:
Sorry for late reply. Super busy.

I have some friends that work in the tegra department. They were having the same problems.

Can't really post the email though...is there a way to quote it on here? (I'm a forum nugget)
[LG Optimus 2x] hikkifans:
Not sure if this is related or not.

But after I flashed FR10 from Paul, I haven't encountered any freezing or auto-restart problem. One change of FR10 is the update of Nvidia module. Would that be contributing to the recovery of the issue?

I have flashed FR11 just a few hours ago, see if the issue occurs again.

(btw, better and better from FR1 => FR11, thanks again Paul)

[LG Optimus 2x] acidash:
i flash with Gilg@mesh Edition rom FRxx but the auto shutdown only happens at my office whereby the reception is bad.

Could it be when the network keep switching back and forth, this causes the phone to go haywire?

Did you get the update trough your phone.

Or connected it to the LG app?
[LG Optimus 2x] aMpeX:
No update in Germany yet.

I'll have to call a "pics-or-it-didn't-happen" on that one
[LG Optimus 2x] spawndk:
through LG App
[LG Optimus 2x] xmoo:
Gonna try it myself.

Is it a big update??
[LG Optimus 2x] bryant_16:
Yup, from the LG desktop app, and it's still a 2.2.2 version, just the change in the baseband. Also, included is Remote Call and Backup application. So far, these are the changes I have noticed.

On top of that, I can see that the Phone Idle doesn't take up as much as battery previously.

As for reboots and shutdowns, I got to monitor still.
[LG Optimus 2x] xmoo:
No update here with the LG desktop app.

You have the full rom? Can you upload it?
[LG Optimus 2x] bryant_16:
Sorry, I don't have the full rom.
[LG Optimus 2x] steveinstreatham:
Same issue on my LG2x, Although not reboot - just fails to reactivate from standby. Also turned off after calls couple of times. Sometimes I can restart with power button - sometimes need to pull battery.

Charged from PC, HTC PSU and LG PSU - PC ok, wall socket killed it every time.

Had phone 4 days - droped off back to carphone warehouse this morning.

Sorry - don't have specs - dont have phone. Awaiting replacement.

Not rooted - no installed apps - just rearranged screens a bit!

Very new in UK still - but while I was there another guy walked in with exact same issue!

Will let you know how new phone goes.
[LG Optimus 2x] bryant_16:
Does a baseband increases the phone performance in terms of speed and stability to the phone?

[LG Optimus 2x] lmerega:
This night I'll try with a different charger.

I'm almost sure the problem is the mAh.
[LG Optimus 2x] lmerega:
Guts, I'm charging with a 350 mAh charger. It works flawlessly :)

Now I am about 80% battery :)
[LG Optimus 2x] kostasalfa:
Cant get the update to apper in software update tool, no matter if i chanfe the region and language settings!! (it shows 10b as most recent version and upgrades were found!!)

Should i revert to stock?? (i am on fr10 modaco's - mine stock was 10b too )

Can somebody dump the full rom??

How about reboot and freeze issues to those who updated?? Is baseband change enough to do the trick?? (to anyone who maybe knows!!)
[LG Optimus 2x] arielext:
the black screen of death is killing me! I like the HW of the phone but damn something is wrong. I just hope it's the software so we don't all have to send the phones back!

when my phone has the BSOD only a wipe helps to get the screen back to work ... arg! Pulling the battery and booting it back up does work ... for a few seconds but then it's all black again.

My journey so far

First times it happened to me was after flashing a modaco rom (fr9) and after installing my normal android apps including setcpu and titanium. I rebooted the phone and the BSOD occured; logcat was still running, buttons were responsive.

After a few tries i went back to stock and let the phone on for a day; it all looked good, left it on overnight and the drain was amazingly low. Hooked it up to the htc charger and it charged like a charm, left it off the charger during the day and when I got home I was presented with a new BSOD (the most frustrating part is that the phone is actually running you just don't see a thing!)

So in this final attempt before i throw in the towel and sell the darn phone i set it up like this:

- no setcpu/pimp my cpu/anything that needs root (BSOD mostly occurs when the second a program asks for root rights

- no screen auto brightness

- lg charger instead of an htc charger (4.8v vs 5v)

So far i rebooted the phone twice and maybe i'll even charge it by keeping my laptop on for an even lower input (greenpeace hates me now thanks to LG)"

Sorry for the bad english; it's tough to express my frustration in a different language but I try :)
[LG Optimus 2x] kostasalfa:
New findings!!!

WOW!! Just discovered the following !! Sure its a power handling issue in the phone. Charger just triggers this weird behaviour, NOT THE CAUSE in my opinion!!!

Just tried a completely NONAME charger, bought together with a battery for my htc hd2 a long time ago!! (like 8-10 usd from ebay or something!!)

The phone lost it! Completely. Start opening countless apps, touch screen became COMPLETELY unresponsive (it got touches all over the screen but by itself, i wasnt even touching it!!!!) backlight keys would not dim never, even with working phone screen off!!! Totaly reproducable behaviour, did many resets, batt off, revert to stock all just to try it and see!!

SO THE GUY WITH EMAIL REFERENCE FROM TEGRA TEAM IS RIGHT!!! IS POWER HANDLING FROM LG, NOT TEGRA ITSELF. AND WITH THE VERY LIMITED THINGS I KNOW, I CANT SEE HOW LG IS GOING TO FIX THIS THROUGH SOFTWARE..

Just to let you know the specs of the charger read EXACTLY LIKE THAT:

input : AC100-240v - 50/60HZ 0.15A

output : DC 4.2V 350ma ~ +-50mA (this must be when you put the bat IN the charger, looks like this : http://cgi.ebay.com/2x-BATTERY-CHAR...Accessories&hash=item43a67166e4#ht_2988wt_905 )

output USB : 5.2V d.c. 800mA <--- This makes my phone crazy !!!

Can also someone with a higher than 5v power charger reproduse???
[LG Optimus 2x] ppsun:
Perhaps, it could be a 2 issues that look like the same problem.

1) When I had my old Witstech Android PDA with SetCPU installed, I used to get the BSOD (PDA running but screen was black). In order to avoid BSOD, I had to set up SetCPU to run no less than 500Mhz. As any speed less than 500Mhz would cause BSOD when the Witstech go to standby mode.

2) With the charger-related lock-up/shutdown issues. I was lucky to get good stability on my LG 2x with 2 Nokia chargers that I happen to have lying about (in fact, 100% lock-up free). But switching to a friend's charger or my car USB charger, the lock-up occurs within 1 hour of the switch. After more than 2 weeks of testing, the results are quite consistent. Having read the service manual, the phone has a fairly intelligent battery charging circuitry, IMHO, I think LG messed up the programming for the charging circuitry rather than a proper hardware defect. Which, hopefully, is an easy firmware fix soon.

Thinking of buying a G2X in 3 days-need input

I am considering purchasing a g2x and am having some very grave misgivings after reading some of the threads and all the issues with reboots etc. I would really like to know how the G2X functions as an actual phone. device volume and clarity through speakerphone and headset etc. Signal strength etc. Any and all info is greatly appreciated.:)

Edit-- Sorry I posted this in the wrong place. Please excuse my mistake
[LG Optimus 2x] acidash:
Baseband 20110405 seems to be more stable. Just updated it last night and no auto shutdown encounter yet. Will keep you all posted.

Do you use original wall charger?

Thx
[LG Optimus 2x] spawndk:
#Imerega

I use original 4.8v LG charger and never had any issues, never any shutdowns or anything

My son also has an LG 2x from the same batch (I bought them together) - but he has been using our old 5v htc charger from our Desires, and he told me yesterday that he do experience these issues with shutdown/black screen/freezing

Could it really be related to overvoltage from the charger being used ?
[LG Optimus 2x] lmerega:
I do think so
[LG Optimus 2x] heavyhms:
I use standard LG charger, a original Apple charger (5V, 1A), a original Nokia charger (5V, 1,2A) and a Sunkin mini usb car adapter (5V, 1,2A) with no problem: never had freeze or reboot. maybe problems occurs if you use a charger with more than 5V output (usb standard is 5V)
[LG Optimus 2x] pulsation:
Actually, problems occur for me with the standard LG charger (4.8V, considering it should deliver stable voltage and current as written on it of course). Much less problems occur with my 5V Samsung charger.
[LG Optimus 2x] ReiskaSeta:
No problems since yesterday update.. yet.

As far as i remember, i had to make a battery pull before the phone snapped out of it......

My HTC Magic is charghing fine from it, and so is all other USB powered devices.........except my buddy's Iphone 3GS, it's just not charghing.....
[LG Optimus 2x] steveinstreatham:
Could it be that once you use a non 2X charger it screws the LG and regardless of what you use after this your stuffed.

I should get replacement this week - will just use stock charger and see what happens
[LG Optimus 2x] siggehandf:
My phone started doing this the last couple of days. I have been using it for around 14days without any problems what so ever. Over the last few days it has started rebooting and freezing.

But it has never happened while the phone was chargning, so I doubt the charge process has anything to do with it.

I also started to notice that music would studder when I was walking with it, something I hadn't noticed before.
[LG Optimus 2x] nold-i-spolen:
Nope, i had the problem(s) from day one, i only used the LG charger the first 6 days.......
[LG Optimus 2x] durzagott:
Just got my replacement from Expansys. Fingers crossed I don't get anymore of BSODs, charger shutdowns, or reboots with the new phone.

If I do I hope they happen within 7 days so I can get my money back!
[LG Optimus 2x] nold-i-spolen:
CRAP!!!!!

My brand new replacement O2X just rebooted by it self........twice in a row......when charghing from the original chargher.......

[LG Optimus 2x] Wwax:
Welcome to my world, had the exact same problem, now i´m fighting with the service vendor to get it DOA, LG told me two weeks but they say 7 days.. I sent it in after 10 days..

With my luck, probably going to get the same phone back in about two weeks and have to pay for "no fault found".. Oh how i hate ANOVO.

Feel sooo stupid that i was honest in trusting LG and admitted to 10 days.

Two weeks are for all products EXCEPT mobile phones... Fool me once..

Service request was made 4/4...

If sending it to service.. LIE! Just to be on the safe side...

..My two SKR of frustration :(

EDIT Update: They are sending it back after charging it for one night not sure if it even was on.. "no fault found" but at least i don't have to pay anything. :(
[LG Optimus 2x] jivemaster:
No, the charger is not responsible. The problems happen regardless of the charger you use and whether it's connected to the charger or not.

Don't bother returning your phones - it makes no difference. It's pretty clear by now that shoddy software is to blame. Update as the updates are released.

If you don't want to put up with the issues (and that's completely understandable), return for a refund or have it exchanged for a different phone.

LG rushed this to market to be the first dual core, and so far it's a pretty terrible release. People shouldn't have top deal with this stuff.

Doesn't help that the bulk of the big media outlets don't care. I'm looking at you engadget. They were all over the Nexus S faults. They should help optimus 2x customers by getting LG to be more responsible for this. Seems phandroid are the only ones that give a rats.
[LG Optimus 2x] pulsation:
As soon as possible :) I can't use a regular internet connection at home now (only a filtered wifi hotspot), so I guess that's why the LG mobile updating tool got stuck while updating itself yesterday night.
[LG Optimus 2x] 1695:
That's encouraging. I'll start breathing again in like 10 days though.. Let's keep our hope at a reasonnable height.

@those who had the chance to get the update : please notify us if you got a freeze/reboot...
[LG Optimus 2x] RedeemerSK:
I see posts about new baseband version helping some people.

Soo ... correct me if I'm wrong, but if it was somehow faulty baseband sw (pre-april versions) causing these problems, wouldn't we be able to maybe verify it by removing SIM card ?

I'm new to this whole android stuff but afaik baseband is the code responsible for GSM networking, so removing the SIM should silence its execution down to minimum (emergency calls). Or is there a way to turn the module off comlpetely ?

Has anyone tried this ? I can't try it myself, waiting for replacement atm.

Just an idea.
[LG Optimus 2x] jivemaster:
