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.

By the summer? This phone will be old news then.

battery consumption problem caused by bad voltage handling?

so I downloaded somekind of battery widget that have graphic log on the voltage and I noticed that when my new optimus 4x's voltage jumped between high and low it cause the battery to drop rapidly... CMIIW, I can't help but feeling that this is very much like those happened at contemporary desktop CPU that constantly adjusting voltages, however with the bad efficiency one, not sure if this is LG's fault or Nvidia's, anyone here have article reviewing/explaining the Tegra 3 platform? CMIIW, the CPU is Nvidia's right? or is it somebody else's CPU?
anyone else noticed similar behavior? any suggestion on improving the battery life?

When root will come out, definitely will improve battery

can you describe your meaning of a lot there? for me if I use this phone a lot, it will only last 8-10 hours! for constant gaming it maybe will only last 2-4 hours!

only the moto raz maxx will last longer then 4h constant gaming.
alot for me is about 10 calls, 20-30 messages, wifi,data and sync on at all times. navigate during work, check rss feeds and email a couple of times / hour. play wordfeud and rumble with notifications.
maybe im not as heavy user as others but thats alot for me and i dont feel any change in batterylife from my meizu mx or htc desire. u get 2150mah battery in this phone, compared to meizu mx or desire with their 1500-1600mah but u also have double the performance and alot bigger screen, why would it last longer?

LG states that some apps cause battery drain. I have read it in some internal b2b document from LG site. One of the apps mentioned was poweramp. Don't know if problem is fixed with newest firmwares.

[Q] Best ROM/kernel combo best battery life w/3G is turned on (Android 4.0 & above)

[Q] Best ROM/kernel combo best battery life w/3G is turned on (Android 4.0 & above)
Hi guys, as per thread title -
I'm constantly on the move and usually do not have access to a charger for the day, and I rely heavily on 3G for my job. I don't wish to go back to stock Gingerbread, and will at be on Android 4.0 and above. 3G seems to drain a lot of battery.
Be it flashing customer kernel or going to the extreme tweaks, do share your thoughts here! V30J was a good ICS rom with acceptable battery drain, but it has its own set of issues (mainly freezing randomly and not waking up). But that's my benchmark of battery life, as I got almost 10 hours with moderate usage (no wifi, no GPS, minimum brightness etc with Pimp My Rom).

Since your a local, I bet or kiasu(Singapore Attitude). Or maybe not. Anyways, The best for battery life is V30J. Or not. When I used it, its very power savvy. But take note that the performance is poor

=.= kiasu.
yeah perhaps haha but for one I don't mind a sacrifice in performance as long as the rom functions and doesn't drain battery. However V30J as mentioned had its freeze issue and that is a problem that I may not be able to accept.

[Q] Questions about the 4X

Hi everyone,
I'm thinking about buying LG Optimus 4X and I have a few questions:
1- How is performance about of the box? Any lag?
2- Both 4X and HTC One X have the same processor, are they equal in performance? How is it compared to the S3? What would I be missing compared to both phones?
3- What about gaming? I've read that people have issues with Tegra 3 in gaming in both 4X and One X.
4- Battery life. What is the maximum screen on time with heavy usage?
5- Any news about JB update?
6- Are there any cons I should know about it before buying?
Thanks in advance, guys

My personal experience is ive had no problems with the gaming and the quality has been awesome, you will hear from a few that they think its laggy but id recommend them to stop the many programs they probably have running in the background using task manager.
the thing i dont like is the battery tends to get warm a lot of the time,ive played games like the grand theth auto series and 9mm and nfs most wanted ect ect which played well

They ran well with no lagging at all?

they run very well without lagging, the only time id say i found any problems like lagging was when i had many programs running in memory, for the cost of the phone if i experienced lagging id certainly send it back and buy another phone, people get carried away with downloaded programs that tweaks this or that and have things like the antivirus runnning in the background which then eats up a lot of recources also i wouldnt use programs that run in the background to change lock screens and themes
---------- Post added at 04:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:04 PM ----------
also i notice that the heat comes from just below the camera and not directly from the battery which would suggest its the proccessor heating up and not the battery, i dont know if its the same for everyone but check it when it feels hot,.remove the battery cover and feel for the heat source

Tegra 3 has heating issues due to it's 40nm structure.

The performance is better on the 4x then the one x. Since the tegra 3 was better optimized. I have no lag playing any games. Battery can be something that I didn't really figure out yet. Some days it is good some days it is horrible. When using the phone in wifi battery is rather good when using it on cellular data it is rather not so impressive. But the one x battery is by far worse and not removable. Where u can remove the battery on the 4x.

4X has better performance based on experience with both devices or just assumption?

I had the one x and the galaxy s3 and i sold both u got the 4x. Battery on 4x better on then one x epual to s3. Performance s3 then 4x then one x. Screen one x the best then 4x and s3. Checkerboard when blacks im the s3 is bad and the burn in issues on the s3 screen are known issues. Camera one x then s3 then 4x. Custom Roms s3 and one x great, 4x has non.

Regarding performance, where does the 4X fall behind S3?

I the speeds text the enyox chips are somewhat better performance and battery life wise they give a little bit better results. But the tegra 3 in the 4x is better then the one x version. And I do not regret getting the 4x and it handles really everything as good as the s3 really. The camera is not as good so. It isn't bad but the zoom specially when close is pretty broken but there are camera apps that work good and fix the issue. Camera mx does really good actually. Anyway. The 4x is really a good phone.

Thanks that really helped

Not a problem and u will like the screen. Specially u don't have to worry about burn in and checkerboard looks when u have black backgrounds. And it performs better in sunlight then the amoleod screens do. LG really makes some of the best screens. I only wish I could put a custom rom on the 4x but the stock software is pretty ok. Do not worry about it being as a screw up like it was in the 2x. LG did a better job with that software in the 4x.

How about Camera
Hi,
I am about to buy this phone but there are a few things that are holding me back (or else, in India, sometimes it is coming out to be 33% cheaper than OneX or S3, which is just superb).
1. Camera quality - I saw the Neowin Review and it is the most honest review I've seen of this phone. Camera isn't its forte, but is a critical factor for me. With some 3rd party softwares, can it be any better, especially in darker settings?
2. Video - How good is the video with 3rd party softwares after updating the phone with 10h firmware update.?
3. I reckon that the battery issues are also taken care of with 10f/g or something like that?
4. How good is the music player with or without PowerAmp, especially with a headphone and not the standard speakers?
5. In White or Black?
6. Jelly bean is rumored to be out in Q1,13 with unlocked bootloader as well. Will that mean that CM and others will port their android version to 4x HD as well?
Anything else I should know before I make the purchase. This is my first time for a smart phone, so just trying to play safe.
Thanks in advance.

1. I don't use any camera, so can't tell. But kholk says it's better with his rom.
2. same as 1.
3. Battery is not great, but also not bad. Highest drain has been away since v10e (Europe). If the phone gets unlocked, custom kernels will take care of the problem.
4. I haven't used PowerAmp and I don't have good headphones. Also something I care about less.
5. White version has a small black border around the screen. Also, the button backlight, which is widely used as a Notification LED, can't be seen as good as in the black version. Everything else is just a matter of personal preferences.

1. At first I was disapointed from the camera, but after flashing v10h it takes pretty good quality pictures,(big battery spender)
2. Video is not than good but u can change brightess so it takes NICE 1080p videos also can record with flash on, with good frame rate (I really love it)(Also ENORMOUS battery spender.)
3.there are nice battery tutorials which will make your batery drain unnoticable (I am curently 1d 13h 13min with 3g of 60 min usage over 4 hours talk time and wifi 30 min. So this is basic LIGHT usage but the battery is at 43% (CURRETLY TESTING THE BATTERY LIFE) ) with hard core use like ONLINE multyplayer games battery is spend for 3:30 - 4:30 hours
4. Standard music player is good not too loud on loudspeaker but on headphones it is pretty loud (for me), but Call speaker is not that loud
5. Black (It looks good)
6. YES, we are all waiting for that

Thank you both. I finally decided to buy it over LG L9. Both are fabulous phones but having the flagship phone and better reviews did it for me. It should be in my hands some time this week (online ordering). Am I happy? :laugh: :highfive:

AW: [Q] Questions about the 4X
Then welcome to our community, you won't regret this, I think
...sent with my LG Optimus 4X HD...

Hi,
I also about to buy this phone. I coming from MOTO RAZR xt910 and my big worry is question: Are they confirmed to unlock bootloader? Moto also promised to do so and that's why I bought RAZR, now I ended up with this phone on stock ROM.
Good thing I saw, kholk working on CM, I know him back from SE Arc forum, he doin' grat job.
Overall, I like LG design, comparing phones 3 days, I reading, watching, etc... Last 2 left:
LG 4x vs SGS3
I thing I'll get LG 4x because of design, I really don't like SGS3 shape.

i have two friends which have s3 cause it "famous" them all have crack or scract at the edge.. i think s3 just fragile when it got drop but my 4x i think hundreds of got fall of the bed got thrown seriously still none.... forget gorilla glass 2 just think about the build quality
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app

Actually the only difference between Gorilla Glass 1 and 2 is that 2 is thinner. They both offer the same protection.

[q] getting the 4x...help solicited

First of all, I earnestly apologize if this question is answered before. I am seriously thinking of getting this cell. I am from India and it is an absolute steal now for a quad core and 720p screen now. Plus I love the Optimus UI the most.
I need a few inputs from you fellow users.
i. How is the battery life of the phone? With moderate usage (music in headphones, few snaps, half an hour of gaming) will I get a full day?
ii. Is there any commendable ROM for this phone? like MIUI or CM?
iii. How is the performance? Is it comparable to the other Quad Cores like the ONE X or the S3??
iv. Any word on Jelly Bean update? (leak, official, custom --> doesn't matter)
BTW, am expecting some "Answers" and not flamings. please...:angel:
awaiting answers.

achyut.

Hi you may just be able to cross the day but keep the charger ready at home to be charged
No custom ROM as of now as bootloader is locked but measures are on to unlock it just search the forum
Comparable to siii in my opinion

Well, apart of the camera, that for some people is enough, the phone is very good.
We still don't have custom ROMs but ICS 4.0.3 is a smooth and fast OS in this device.
The size is the ideal, specially using GPS, to see TV or just replay your own videos, or to see web sites.
Battery is good, of course that depends on how each one uses the phone. Miracles finished long time ago...
The shape is nice, not a pebble, not a brick, like Italian cars
The relation quality/price is one of the best too...
But like everything, some love it, others hate it... perfection don't existe.

You should go ahead and buy the device. It is absolutely worth the price. In fact, looks like until Optimus L9 arrived in India, 4X had good/decent review on flipkart.
In my case, the battery last for 1.5 days approximately (few calls, sms, games, WiFi-internet browsing, etc). As others have said, if you are a heavy user, you have to charge is every day. I guess any smartphone with continuous usage will drain the battery fast.

My battery life is great, i can get trough a day of use( wich includes: 30-60 min of gaming, about 30min here on xda and in the browser, and some light checking on FB and Twitter) with half the battery. But i hear; that if this is used as a workers phone, it will just last a day. Having a charger is smart.
2. There is no custom roms whatsoever. But we seem to have someone working on a rom based in 2nd init
3. I HAVE gotten over 16000 in antutu benchmark once. Witch is conciderably higher that the highest one x score ive seen( havent really cared that much) and it is just slightly weaker that the S3. Games run smooth as googles project butter.
4. The long-waited Jb update seem to come in the period 8-10th january. Howewer it may come as late as early feb
