Hello everybody!
Maybe it is not of much use.
Reading on this forum, I was not sure about the quality of the camera of the LG p990.
But then the other day I had the chance to put the device in an extreme condition, and I must say, the audio and the video full HD is pretty good.
Considering as well the luck of volume and focus control!
The LG is rooted but with its stock rom froyo v. 10d
I cannot post the link so if you want search on you tube aerdna3691 there is only this video.

After watch some youtube videos, about OPTIMUS 2X, i'm a little depressed...
Optimus 2X is optimized for flash right? so, webrowsing is the best thing on this phone but...
->why can't play fluently 1080P youtube, when Galaxy SII can?
->Why load slow than galaxy S?
And, why optimus 2X can't record videos with higher bitrate? ( galaxy S II is at 30mb/s when optimus 2x stills at 20mb/s ) transfers speed?
Thanks for all and forgive my english.
Because the Galaxy S-II is a stronger phone in several keyareas.
That being said, there is lots of room in the software part of the phone for improvement from lg's more or less laggy and buggy design. I hope for a better phone later this year with the update.
However, I'm on cm7 (cyanogenmod) now, and it's a much better device now, even though it's a nightly. So, the phone have the potential to be great m.

You can play flash in 1080P fluently now? or maybe with the update to gingerbread?
Thanks for the reply
Just tried playin some 1080p flash trailer and its fluent on webview and fullscreen,its just the stock rom that sucks. With a custom one this thing finaly deserve its name OMG SO FAST
still cant play 1080p flash youtube in browser fluently in cm7
Yeah im on fr17
So, the Optimus 2X is better than SGSII in Flash finally?
i whant the phone for gaming, music, web browsing and youtube, basically.
Thanks for all the answers
Once again, the Galaxy S-II is in fact a faster phone, so that's worth looking into the. The Tegra2 might be better at doing multimedia content such as video and flash, but I doubt it. My knowledge is quite limited.
One thing's for sure - while both phones, the Optimus 2x and S-II, support flash content, it's not the same as they are good at it. Flash is some heavy lifting, and definetly not a technology well suited for phones at the current level of development.
Watching 1080p video content on CM7 on Optimus 2x is still laggy, but I'm guessing that will be fixed in the final release.
one thing i will NEVER understand is why the hell do people insist on watching 1080p videos on THEIR PHONE...
i do believe you guys understand that 1080p is 1920x1080 pixels, wheras your phone screen is 480x800, so why the hell you want those full hd vids on such a small screen ? (not concerning those who do this through hdmi) enlighten me
The HDMI-out jack is there for a reason.
After searching I could not find an answer except some threads about making the 2x 30fps.
So I just got the 2x, Rooted,
Installed temasek's KANG BUILD P204-36
Then ironkrnl
everything went fine
The camera has a few modes but they are all 30fps or 15fps. Is this a property of the Rom or Kernal? Or will installing a new camera app resolve this?
I need native 24fps for my workflow, not 30fps converted to 24fps, it was a selling point for me.
I could probably figure out how to assemble a new kang build I just need a few tips on which drivers would be needed for 24fps if it is the rom. Or can I just push the new old driver straight to my phone?
Hi,
Because of Nvidia drivers being closed sourced, CM develepors are not able to make the CM camera behaviour as how the stock camera behaves.
If you want 24fps, use stock rom with stock camera app. Even with that the 720p is at 30fps. Only 1080p is 24fps.
I heard Nvidia is releasing its drivers source codes soon.. but from what I heard, it's for ICS.
Good luck.
Cheers.
Optimus 2x (P990)
GR5 + RC11-R + PPv10
OK so back to a stock rom then until ICS gets here, thanks for the reply
After you gave me the right terms i found this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1159404 but it doesnt look like they got anywhere
what i hate about cm7's video camera is the much lowered fps during low light.. IT SUX!
Hi all,
I recently broke my dell streak, and looking for a new phone now...
I can't make my mind betwenn optimus 2x, atrix 4g and nexus s, thought will get your input on this.
I am ok with rooting and loading custom rom... may be not changing the screen of the mobile that's how I broke the streak
I am hoping all three phones I am looking at will have decent performance. I am looknig for a mobile with a decent video recording capablity and decent battery life. I read some of the threads here and looks like some of the members are unhappy about their camera.
What you think about LG optimus 2x camera? do u think its better than Atrix 4g ones? I guess Nexus is totally out of picture...
What would be your choice?
Thanks in advance for your help
O2X hands down.
CM7+latest kangs and you are flying!
I had the same deal, and i finally get the o2x and it rocks!!! Even in Stock is awesome!
I am with oleg1981, the 2X fly and have great developers.
Get de Atrix de o2x has inferior build quality and if it wasn't for developers constantly working hard at tweaking here and there it wudve been a really sad phone but whatever yu decide yu will enjoy it because of the great support from developers

Hi all,
Thanks so much your input. Just wondering if you have any comments regarding tht camera quality? I read some threads where they were complaing about the quality of the camera your thoughts on that will be really helpful.
Cheers
The camera is great

The camera is great if you are running a ROM based on the stock LG software. It's not that great when running on CM7 due to loss of frames when recording video in low light.

Hello!
Camera is ok if you use it in good light conditions and in short distance with the flash. It isn't very good when used in dimmed/low light or twilight.
BTW: CM7 camera is ok now. As now almost everything is working well on Cyanogenmod 7 with custom kernel (even all sensors) - but only the FM radio - that is working much better with stock based custom roms.
I can't say much in comparison to the cameras of the Atrix or the Nexus S.
The camera of the Samsung Galaxy S2 is definitely much better though.
But there are test about that (concerning camera quality) available on the internet - as a German yoke says ask the nice Indian (internet with Saxon dialect tongue = "Inder nett" )
The Atrix by the way sounds very good on paper (more RAM, faster CPU) and should be a really decent phone too - but it is a little bigger - IMHO the LG O2x has the right size - didn't want a bigger phone with more than 4".
True the camera is better than it was before (brightness has improved). I still miss the full frame recording of the stock rom.

Hi all,
Thanks very much for your replies. Its been really helpful. I am going to pick one up this weekend...
You should choose between Atrix and 2x, Nexus S is single core...the past now.
My advice is 2x.
Hey XDA. Right now, i have a LG O2X, just turning a year old. My dad just orderd an arc s for a small price. He really doesnt care what phone it is, he just wants to go read the news on the fly.
So, should i choose the Arc? Btw, my mom has a pair of livesound headphones laying around.
So:
Arc S:
Better screen?
Fully working ics
Sleek
Good headphones
but:
Slower
not so much for gaming.
viewing angles?
LG:
Fast with custom rom ( using temasek kang):
Good screen?
but:
thick, heavy
not much support from nvidia.
What would you choose?
I listen to music for about 1.5-2 hours per day while surfing the web on 3G. I play occasionally.
Also postet on the Arc part of XDA.
I'll chose arc just because of OTG-USB without rooting and design and weight and music too(speaker's quite loud and clear with Xloud on)
For all rest things I'll choose 2x especially due to front cam, uniform body(so that it doesn't falls off my hands while held for taking picx/vidz) , camera is better, video bitrate is better thus better quality, screen size doesn't matters when resolution is same and most imp. Is that i hate hardware buttons on phone

Hmm, i posted on the Arc Forums, that i will let my father make the choice. Makes my choice a lot more easy
Btw, i like it that you say you would never buy SE

Ya, they don't allow to flash or backup boot images, answer to the threads inSE forums, but never implement those, service center is too bad and what the heck- these fones comes with a locked bootloader :-O

well my wife got SE Arc S and have Lg Optimus 2x and i did play quiet a lot with both phones, and to be honest like for me there is no way to change Lg O2X for SE Arc S, simply LG is way better than SE special now when i install v20q(i compare only stock rom), SE is good for read news on internet, or facebok, but i don`t use my phone for that my wife does .
Hi.
I have a Samsung I9000 for one month now and I'm quite satisfied.
Still, I have one complaint. In the last weeks I tried numerous ICS-based ROMs, and some GB-based ROMs (JVU, JW4, JW5). Still, none of them let me focus while video recording, never mind, macro video recording. I saw on youtube a few videos but they were pretty old and filmed with 2.2.1 (Froyo) firmware.
Is it true that Froyo ROM had video touch-to-focus? Why the newer versions don't have it?
Thanks in advance for you answers,
Mike
Come on guys, no one is really interested in the subject?
In my opinion, it is a pretty important matter and I haven't seen a topic where is matter is clearly discussed.
