Hi!
I'm not a big fan of the stock LG lockscreen, as many others i've seen.
I have tried GOTO Lockscreen, it's nice and all, but there are some bugs that I experience on the O2x. I've looked at Widgetlocker, but some of the comments in marked is saying it's a battery drainer and I do NOT need more drainage on the O2x
Do any of you have a functional lockscreen recommendation ?
flash custom ROM with stock lockscreen.

If you take a look in the battery thread, you'll see I'd rather not.. until the drainage I experience on my O2x is fixed ..:-/ (Have not tried Fr8 and Fr10 yet, but my hands is itching ........)
I use my phone quite a lot in my work, and I need the batt. time I get from stock 10b.
Give it some time, the system needs couple of days to "get to know" the battery, it should improve after some time
As far as someone once said here...
Edit: if you insist on keeping the phone stock, install widget locker

Download Autokiller (put it in agressive mode) and download juicy defender
These 2 programs are great getting the battery to last more than a day without a problem!

Hate LG lockscreen too. I would like to change for android stock lockscreen but dont wanna use any custom roms.
What is called lg lockscreen apk ? Can i somehow change it for stock android lockscreen ? My phone is rooted.
Check out Paul's post "Stock Patch Pack - AOSP style lockscreen" on Modaco.
Sorry. Too new to post link.

??? Have 2-11mA drain in standby with Custom ROM and about 50 with stock so...
and btw much more speed and the Custom ROM is faster I think (feels mor smooth than stock).
50mA with stock ROM? Forget it. I have stock ROM and drain is from 1mA to 10mA.

I've had some good and bad experience with some roms, right now i have 2.3.6 ddq8 rom, it's good .. has some pros and cons ... has anyone tried both,, 7.2 rc3 cyanogen and 2.3.6 ??? which is better....??
need to work properly:
- battery
- speed
- camera
- gps
Last KTM Spain Stock rom is better than DQ8 and has lockscreen bugs fixed.
Battery is (from what i've tested) better
Speed ... better
GPS ... good, like DQ8
thnx will try that one...

U will not regret it !

Tried them both, still prefer cm7.
I don't care that much about battery life, and the customization is insane. Daily use Apocalypse rom, very stable if you don't overclock it.
You can't really compare them, as they are to different things
CM7:

-Themes
-More features
Stock:

The cm7 ROMs r not quite speedy now after the release of recent stock ROMs
Btw, i personally think that CM7 ROMs excel at sound quality becoz of the libs, the stock music quality sounds awful

Stock is better for your needs.
Stock (with scripts and different kernel)
- Stable
- Fast
- Good Battery
CM
- Customizable
- Most things work but still has bugs.

Your screenshot shows that you charged phone multiple times and barely managed to get 16 hrs battery life. I have tried more than 30 ROM's and I have not seen a single Cyanogenmod beating Stock ROM's in battery life. I have tried various settings and various apps that could control CPU settings yet CM7 never managed to give me a better battery life.
How about your battery duration? The mine is 2 hours in continuing use in navigation with 3g,cm7 and p990h model. The phone overheats in camera zone and the undervolt dont fix nothing.

this is my experience too. I´m loading everyday at work, so i have enough battery for the rest of the day
quite good
always on 3g ,1.5 h music ,40 sms ,some surf over 3g and wifi ( during lunchtime )
if i make a light usage ,i can manage to last 2 days , i'm quite satisfied
i last 3 days if i dont use wifi /3G and with second core disabled (i make it during trip)
i'm on CM7 Hybrid revolution by stefan.
I think your phone have a REAL problem, even if i try i just cant empty my batt in 2 hours (even with OC ,screen backlite maximus ,and playing riptide online.......i lasted 3 h)

i think it would make more sense to rate your battery life by stating how long the screen was on and on what conditions (wifi on/off/ 3g/ 2g/ brightness lv/ have you been watching video or playing games/ just typing sms or what ever)
my record was about 6h screen on time at 25% brigtness, 2g, gaming about half of that time. but i suspect the battery is getting old now, since i struggle to reach 3.5 h screen on time with the same conditions and much less gaming.

that is a very old and out dated rom, change into anything more recent is my advice. try cm10/stefans rom
So, what rom do guys and girls use on our beloved 4x, and why do you use it? Also mention what kernel you use, and why

No replys?...
Cm (02/07) + Optimus Prime V1.9. I use cm because it's (IMO) the best way to enjoy the android experience. Also because all the mods are compatible with cm.
The reason i use this kernel is because of the performance/battery life.
Cheers
Stock v20a Euro with stock kernel I deleted some applications that come preinstaled and now everything is fine.Using stock because i like LG UI 3 and because i didnt yet installed CWM If anuyone can recomend guild how to instal CWM (best version for our phone) please do so
P.S. mine 20a Euro is unlocked and rooted.
Zaiben ROM and eternity project kernel, best performance and battery life, first time that I don't need to lower the graphics of real racing 3 to ir run lag free, also first time that I run butterly smooth mc4 and 10 hours sleeping with only 8% drop

well, I used to enjoy playing some Tegra games on it, but I just hope there's something to smoothen the performance and enhance the battery life as it is now still very disappointing.

Umm? So you play 38 hours with screen off? Including 30 hours without battery? Wow -- would you mind sharing that trick?
This is a really useful thread indeed, as one can not only learn which ROMs are available but also how stable/battery-saving etc. they are. What I'm still missing are the links to the ROMs sources. Would be great if you could include them! Thanks

Hi everyone!
My Girlferind has a s3 mini. I rooted her phone and installed DmodV3N custom Rom 3~4 months ago. Everything is going well except the extraordinary battery consumption problem. She used the great app 'greenify' and day to day operation is very smooth. But battery won't last 8 hr even under normal to light use. So, I finally decided to flash a new Rom to her phone. Can anyone recommend me a stable and performance oriented custom Rom with least battery consumption? Better not based on stock Rom, and no touchwiz UI.
thanks in advance!!

But, Dmod seems more like a stock Rom than AOKP and CM. and AOKP is only about 160mbs, CM ~400mbs. why Dmod is over 600mbs? and I can install no frills cpu after.
