Should i get this phone? Advice pls!

Hi all. Im due an upgrade i summer. Im looking At this phone or the desire s. But is this phone buggy? Is the dua core really something special? Reviews on the 2x arent too good atm, the phone has many negative points abt it! It was like that with my tg01. I got it because it was the worlds first 1ghz phone. (just like this is the worlds first dual core) my tg01 has soo mamy bugs with it and it was rushed out. Is the 2x like this? I hear it is very buggy. I dont want to get another phone like my tg01 where i rely on custom roms for the phone to be usable.
So long story short, is this phone good? Is dual core something special? Or is speed more or less the same as single cores? Some ppl say that dual core is not needed with android.. Is this true?
Sorry for the quick messy typing (not on pc) and looking for some quick answers!
Cheers

anyone?

Its GPU is a bit ahead of the Samsung's... The CPU is far ahead. In Smartbench 2011 I score 4142CPU and 2953GPU and no samsung devices are even on the charts (with 1.4ghz OC but still stock is a lot better, and I would recommend installing a custom rom...). The call quality can be quite bad until you flash the baseband but after that it should be great. I have nothing bad to say about this phone, and when 2.4 comes out it will only get better (2.4 is rumored to come with real dual-core support)

Even though mine's been working quite well for past 2 weeks as my daily phone, there are also people who are quite fed up with theirs.
I hadn't read xda's user reviews prior to getting mine, but if I were to get another 2x now, I would wait for LG to provide a firmware update that significantly reduces the lock-up/reboot/battery drain issues. It's just to be perfectly sure that I will get one as stable (or more so) than my existing 2x.

I believe the battery drain issue can be fixed manually. just need a through check on whats running and how

thank you all for replies!
(xilw3r sorry i have run out if thanks!)
i
so most issues will be fixed with updates? but does the phone need to use a custom rom to be usable? is lg's ui good?
and is dualcore really much of a difference? do you notice a giant speed difference betweeen other android phones, or is it overhyped?
is battery life good on this? how long heavy use can it last under wifi?
im really stuck considering this and the
desire s

LG ui is laggy and a personal choice, i use lancher pro plus. heavy use and wifi battery lasts a few hours.
Battery doesnt last a day with low usage for me. 5-10% per hour on standby. With 3g on and mail twitter etc sync every 60 minutes. my old hero lasts longer with heavier use

Can't comment much on the performance or UI as I moved over from Symbian. Though, it's much smoother in its user interaction than my son's LG Optimus One, but that's single core, 600mhz.
On days that I don't play much with it and actually use it like a typical work phone, the battery remains above 50% by 6pm. I think usually about 1 to 1.5 hour talk, hourly email auto-checks, less than half-hour of browsing and less than 20 SMSes. I am not a heavy user: I don't IM at all, nor GPS or game much. Just typical work-type usage.
Note: I switch off wifi when I am out of the house and rely on 3G for data connection. I find that keeps the battery lasting longer.

then you have some application/service/process running roque
Mine easily last 10 hours in standby with only 1% battery use (wifi and 3g and autosync enabled)
if you have 5-10% drain per hour on standby, you have some application/service/process not going to sleep as it should, using cpu and power, and preventing your phone from entering standby mode.
Thats not a problem of the phone - but a software issue that you as user need to investigate and solve
with low usage I easily get 2 days running - with moderate use 1½ - and with heavy use 1 full day.

No strange processes running here, spent a few days of testing with different roms aswell drain still exists
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA Premium App

thanks fir responses! i was gonna say 5-10 drainage in an hr is bad! is the a common problem? i heard abt these battey issues!

Battery usage:
16h after power was unplugged, I still have around 40-45% of battery. Low usage (WiFi/3G on, a few calls, gTalk, but no email sync activated).
ROM: 10b

I relly want this phone but im not sure about it anymore.. i read so many many many big bugs about it, and seems that almost EVERYONE is having them..
optimus one was a great phone with dew bugs, why cant they make the same quality on a HIGHER END handset lol :S ?

If you look through the forums of any phone, there will be a lot of people talking about how they have some sort of problem.
Nexus S

yea but o2x is A LOT, mean u have 60 page thead about reboot issues.... that doesnt look too promising ..

You can always return it if you have too many problems
Nexus S

The stores have em already, G-slate and G2x. Played with both today, I know the manager in store but before somebody make a dumb comment pertaining to that, aint nuttin top secret and no special info was bestowed on me because of who I know. The stores just have them stocked already. The slate is nice though, good build, nice size and weight, kinda reminded me of the ipad but lighter. Honeycomb makes our phones look like gameboy colors.

But the G2x was also better than my expectations! By far blows most of the others out of water.

Rom with the best battery life

I don't know If this thread has already been created if so please direct me to that thread.
So I used to think CM6 had the best battery life so I flashed 6.1.0 but not much battery life change so im starting to think that maybe it was actually cm 6.0.0 that had best battery life but im unable to find it so I can test it. So im here asking you all what Rom has brought you the best battery life to your cdma hero no matter if its 2.2 or 2.3
CM + AOSP = DABIZZNIZ

I would like to know what's your measure of "best" battery life?

try using aosp - jaybob's rom, best rom with battery life, used it pretty heavily and got 15 hours

My measure of best battery life is not losing 10% of my batery life doing nothing. I remember when my battery would be be at 40% I go to sleep wake up and its about 30%, now its dead by the time I wake up

don't need to flash the kernel since it's already in the rom. Just do a full wipe and bam ! I'm actually trying the latest one (june-08) but the june 4 version gave me that 15 hour

personally i have found that the rom you choose itself doesnt really matter, its more about your personal usage, i.e what apps u have running, cpu settings, etc. i usually get around 15-20 hours battery life with pretty heavy mp3 use, lots of texting, and about two hours or so actually on the phone. but i make sure i leave data/wifi/gps etc. off unless i need it. also, its a good idea to check and stop apps that automatically load with the phone that you dont need. imho the only roms that seem to drain the battery quicker are the sense based ones, at least from my own experience.

I was thinking about starting a new thread about this, but you are explaining EXACTLY what I am going through. I wake up today (after leaving my phone charging at night) and turn on my phone, and first thing I see is an 80% battery (this is a normal occurance). After literally doing NOTHING on it all day (except for a 30 minute call) it turns off by itself at 20%.... after 8 hours. So while I got 2 hours better than you, keep in mind that I did virtually nothing. What is worse about it is i'm supposedly using the "best rom" for battery life (AOSP 2.2. + battery tweak).
I've wiped battery stats (after reading the correct way to do it) and checked the health of my batter (reads as "good") and i'm still clueless. I'm wondering if I should even waste my money on a battery and hope that's it? I've only had the phone exactly a year and about a week so I'de be disappointed to know the battery lasts this short. I remember being on another froyo ROM (with the battery tweak) using it more than I am now going to bed anywhere between 30 and 50% which is about where it's at at lunch time now! I can't believe that i'm actually ok with the performance of my hero, it's just the battery that's killing me now !

And I plan on staying away from the GB ROMS until they get the GPS issue resolved. Let's just say that I was in Colorado a couple of weeks ago and my phone failed when I need it to work.... flashed froyo almost immediately when I got back (that's another topic)

i believe you are correct, if you got it from the download section of rom manager, its the same one, ben using for a while now, no FCs no issues. smooth and pretty fast too

[Q] Batterylife issue, can't find any threads that help

There's not a single thread out there that has helped me with my damn battery life that I've been able to find. I'm sick of hearing, "did you search first?" Yes, I searched first. I didn't find anything that helped, that's why I made a new thread.
Anyways, I've tried apps, widgets, calibrating, deleting batterystats.bin, flashing different roms, kernels, modems, and even a new battery. Not a single thing has made my phone last through the day, and it's getting to the point where I'm about to flash back to stock, and forget about it. I need to be able to use it when I need it, not put it back in my pocket because I'm afraid of draining the battery. Honestly I'm not sure if the battery issue is rom related, so If that doesn't work, I may just get a different phone. I need to not have to charge my phone every 6 hours. Does anyone have any idea how to improve battery life on this freakin' thing? 6-7 hours on light usage is not enough. To put it in to perspective, I get 10-15% battery drain in STANDBY per hour. Serendipity 6.4 was a little better than 7, but not much. still within that 6-7 hour range. Is there anything else I can try? Anything at all? I went from 7 back to 6.4 because I thought Android System was draining my battery, but it didn't really do anything. I'm open to everything at this point. Voodoo, cult magic, anything.
Edit: reading through my message, I wanted to clarify that I am very grateful for your help, I hope I didn't imply otherwise.
Serendipity 6.4
Baseband version I9000UGJK4
Kernel Version 2.6.32.9

I don't know what that is heh

Have you tried Juicedefender? It's helped me immensely. Other than that, I could suggest getting an extended battery, if you're willing to cope with a lumpy cappy. I'm too noob to know how to fix this problem other than by using the brute force route, but it's worth a shot.

Well, battery usage shows just about nothing... I was using 6.4 but after it did nothing for my battery life, I went back to 7. Now the android system thing is back but I'm getting the same battery life.
Here's what it shows under battery usage for today:
Display 29%
Android System 25%
Android OS 10%
Google Services 7%
Cell Standby 6%
Fancy Widget 4%
Handcent SMS 3%
Battery Graph 2%
Phone Idle 2%
JuiceDefender 2%
Dialer 1%
and that's it.

if you start seeing android system and android os that high, shut down, yank battery and let it sit for a few minutes. then replace and start up. should help with that and improve battery life.

The problem is, I'd be doing that every 15 minutes. It boots up already taking up more than 10%. I just did exactly what you said, and it booted at 23% for system and 3% for os.

flashed cyanogenmod 7, and turned off mobile data and wifi and just left it on idle for like 2 hours after resetting the batterystats.bin and rebooting... i uninstalled juicedefender because it was actually USING batter... *shrug* and left it that way... well, I opened battery left and looked at it and saw that it would die at like 5am... well, i was disappointed... until I noticed it was 5am, 26 hours from now. That's notibly longer than any battery left stat I've seen since I started noting battery issues... So... Yeah. I think I'll stick with CM7 for a while hehe. After I get an idle benchmark, I'll start using it more. Thank you for your help.

do you live in a poor 3g area?
the problem could be that the phone is constantly looking for a good connection and cant find one, causing massive battery drain

I was just going to say the same thing. If your phone is constantly trying to establish a connection, is alway searching, it's using up lots of juice. Same if you've got gps enable or wifi on. If it's looking, it's active and battery's being used.

Another thing you can try which helped me is to call art and get another free battery if your phone is still under warranty. The new battery I have seems to last almost twice as long as my old one. Of course make sure that the android os isn't eating the battery and mine last a while. Just a suggestion.

Performance and Battery in JB.

I was wondering. I looked everywhere and cannot find exact confirmation or Review. The 4.1.2 update is coming soon for the Optimus 4X and I read on 2-3 blogs that it'll apparently improve battery life. Is that true? Has anyone tried that themselves? From what I observe on my 4X that there are a couple of apps running in the system sucking up the battery. Will the future update fix this to extend its life? Sorry if this question was asked before and/or I've made a double post.

I'm an average user... Not much into games but I message a lot and play on YouTube use wifi and phone regularly... This is much improved for me over 10x

One day+?! Holy-- yeah that's surely an improvement to what I'm experiencing now. Is the phone running smoother as these blogs say? Any crashes/freezes or its a perfect charm. I'd just want to know what to expect...
Also, I've noticed that my phone tends to warm up from... almost everything. Is it still happening?
Edit: Sorry about this post... I rushed on asking this question without realizing that there's a Q&A section.. is there anyway to move the post? If not then I'll delete it.

Depends on what you think is important. My phone is my "phone". I expect it to be as such. I can't imagine Web browsing for 3+ hours on my device. My Dell mini is better suited for that task and has better then 3+ hrs battery life. But maybe if your a gamer or a Facebook addict or Web browser cowboy, you find like people that use their device in the same manner as yourself and then compare notes.
Because of my job I'm often on the go and don't have the opportunity to recharge my device at leisure. It's nice to know it can be used as a phone all day and I'll still be able to call my wife at the end of that day. There if definitely improved battery in 20x after a few services are disabled and be r uninstalled. Prior to leaked JB my device required recharge after i got home. This is how I use my device and the condition under what I use it. These are my results but your milage may vary.
Yes the interface experience for me feels silky smooth. No lag, and no crashes or FCs. Best device I've owned to date.

its not specificly the browsing he did that makes the post usefull unlike some people posting battery charts its the fact that he posts screen on time rather then the chart.
the full charts are useless as you cannot see how often the phone was actualy used.
if i link you 2 charts 1 with slow battery drain in standby and no apps used at all (no screen on time) lasting 2 days exactly and 1 with near no battery in standby and 4 hours app use.
they both look the same if you post a battery chart but only the second one shows the potential of the battery life.
the first just shows the phone needed to be charged after 2 days the second showed the phone is capable of lasting 2 days with near no idle battery drain and gives a verry descent 4 hours screen on time.
a phone that is configured correctly and had good 3g/wifi signal and has 3g/wifi managed correctly, has no apps with adds and no apps that drain battery wil berely use any juice in standby leaving almost all the juice for screen on time.
a badlymanaged phone might drain up to 10% an hour because of adds and poort wifi/3g management/signal.
so in a perfect world (which we should aim for) only screen on/inapp time is important as there should be no other power hoggers.

If you are running a rooted OB, download "No-fills CPU Control" from the Play Store.
Set the governor to "interactive" or "performance", and the scheduler to "row" or "cfq".
Press "Apply", then exit.

He didn't say much (probably not enought to help him a lot) but at least he said that he uses a ZGK so in this case your reply is not completly right. Some (I think most) us OndemandX by default and that is already a good one, better than interactive. I think best might be LionHeard, but that might be different with each kernel and for sure how he uses it.
BTW 5/6h might be OK, at least for the first CM10.1 versions, I think even with the latest versions 9h is very good, especially if you do some gaming. So maybe don't look first at the governor, select the right ROM first. Maybe a newer version, a different one or maybe just CM10, I heard some of the newest ones are rather battery friendly.

check in Battery Usage if the phone have a wakelock, use BetterBatteryStat to find what is a wakelock.

I gonna try a official ICS rom , maybe this be helpful?

Of course. All CM10, CM10.1 roms are battery drainers!

hi,
i support the post above me, try IZS or Marvel roms, they have great battery life. i used them both and with friendly usage i get my phone running all day from 7 am when i disconnect it untill midnight and even more.
by friendly usage i mean : about 15 short calls, around 1 - 2 hrs of wifi, few small DL, texting a bit, around 1/2 of gaming.
this is what i get with the roms i mention above.
BTW dont forget if your OB is old enough, there might be a problem with the battery, since all batteries have limited charging cycles, depend on the batttery maker and so on... bla bla bla...(dang it reminds me to search for a battery in nearby shops here lol)

My OB have 5 months Hmm i use my OB only 4 texting about 150/170 ina day and music about 2-2.5h ina day. Now i use cm 10.1 and this is terrible.. with this batterylife. I thinking about ICS , i think it can be better than CM for now.

150 messages a day? and 2 hrs of music? dang bro you type a lot, so suerly when screen is on, you drain battery, and music also drain power,.
yesterday i travel for 6-7hrs which in that time i went out home with fully charged batt, used a bit of wifi and music for around 2 hrs and 2-3 short calls, the rest of the time the phone was idle. my batt went from 100% down to 58-60% in all of the travel hrs.
so my conclusion is that: be smart as you smart phone, and do compromises with usage in order to get great battery life. oh and its not so bad to have a charger or that handy battery pack that you can use to charge your phone from.
since im not a heavy phone user most of the day when im out at work, i manage to get up to 24 hrs of battery per day. but when i mess with my phone on travels or so, i get around 9 hrs of usage until i get to 45-50% with the Marvel and IZS roms.

Ok. Thanks dude. Im a student i typing so much But thanks a lot i try a IZS
