Hi to all, well a friend of mine gave me a LG Optimus 2X with the Stock rom on it (10d). The phone is very slow at everything. While listening mp3 for example and try to read at the same time my tweets or my mails or trying to open the browser the phone becomes unresponsive for a while. The same goes while on browsing the market! The phone performs worst than any android phone i have ever had!
Any workround? Please help.
Thanks in advance
Get off the stock ROM as soon as possible

So there is nothing wrong with the Phone (with the hardware)? It is Just the stock ROM in it?
Yeah, stock ROM is pretty bad really. You should notice a marked improvement by leaving it.

yes you should leave stock ROM immediately after bought your O2X and start flashing CM7..

Agreed. The stock roms for the optimus 2x aren't that great. Try experimenting with rooting and different roms (I recommend topogogi's rom and kernel since those are the most stable at the moment). If you don't know how to do it then ask, there are a lot of people in this forum willing to help the people who are new to this kind of stuff

Yes that's exactly what i did! But for starters i installed modaco's FR19. It seems pretty good and stable so far. Now the phone is really fast! Are Topogigi or CM better than the one i installed?
Use a custom rom now!!

What are the differences in rooting, roms, etc.? Can all directions be followed for the O2x to root the G2x and install custom ROMs?
The root should work fine, CWM needs to be updated, so don't use that

As said, rooting works as on the O2X. CWM Recovery shouldnt be flashed now, since the partition layout is different and Paul has to sort that out.
Installing O2X custom roms shouldnt work correctly since the G2X and O2X have different basebands. The custom rom has to support the used baseband by using the correct RIL. In time G2X custom roms will be released .

Im sure ive read somewhere that they are going to make the partition layout the same or something, so there wont be any need for seperate roms

They probably do need a seperate rom, because of the different baseband and most likely ril.

Cheers for correcting me! good point read that the roms need to support the baseband also! perhaps a rom could support multiple basebands?
I think O2x and g2x can share roms. The devs will just have to tweak a little to make it work on the other. Am i right or wrong?
Do you guys expect the vanilla Android rom from G2x to be released for the O2x as well?

If you would post benchmark results of O2X, I will post G2X results after I get it today or tomorrow (quadrant and linpack).
I get 2614 Quadrant score on completely stock rom
Please at the stock ROM, try to run second test immediately after first. I think you should take better results.

I got best at 2650 (some were slightly lower) with G2X.
Linpack really sucked - could not break 40 (had done better then that - into the upper 50's with MT4G - overclocked of course).
I got 2680 for my O2X on stock rom. Best record.

Here is the picture.
The G2X seems much faster than the O2X.
I am getting an offer to exchange my 1 year old x10 with LG optimus 2x.Is it a good deal.Does LG deliever good service and support.What are the pros and cons.How is the audio quality..
Pros:
+ Its fast
+ 3D Performance is very good
+ Kamera is ok
+ Custom Rom support is quite good
Cons:
- Stock Rom is not really good (too slow, high battery drain, old version!)
- LG Software Updater does not work with my LG P990
- Some devices have serious issues like hanging system, unwanted reboots
All in all it is a good device, but there are far too many "monday-devices"....
Which means that they have problems that can't be solved by the user.
The downside is if you do not want to customize / root your phone it is nothing special, since the stock rom is Android 2.2 and there is no software update (which has been promised for late July).
So software support is sadly really bad. On Hardware side I have no experiences, but I heared that getting a replacement device is no problem if there is a hardware issue that can't be repaired.
Nontheless I really like my P990, it has great performance if you install a custom rom. The voice quality really depends on your baseband and kernel versions.
With my setup it is ok. (MIUI Roadrunner, latest Kernel and BB)
I hope this helps...

Relating to the updater problem, this could be interesting for you:

CM as of 117 is very stable.
im using CM7 #115 and it's a huge improvement over stock form.
Hi everyone!
Just got the optimus 2x from my brother. Its still in stock rom. May i know from you what's the fastest and most stable custom rom for the phone so that i could give it a try?
Im using miui 2.3.16 + etana kernel with lite battery mod. No issues found.

I vote for this.
but if you don't use any video recording, CM9-Kang by owain already can be used for daily.
it's fast & stable enough if using default config.
I'm pretty happy with what I have in my sig.
However, I would test drive the phone for a couple of weeks if I were you. There have been users reporting very bad battery life that returned the phone and got a much better one.
So personally I would test-drive every functionality of the phone: 3G, wi-fi, bluetooth, GPS, etc and make sure everything is working fine before going for "warranty voiding activities"

Thats also what i'm using right now, also with ironkrnL (80 uv-log-su-rld), Chainfire3D and my own sd-fix. But in cause of the missing hw acc, i posted the cm7 variant
+1 for cm7 kang by temasek (with stock kernel).
I dont see anyone talking about one of the best ROMs with all custom like features with excellent smoothness and best performance....Django ROM with Stefan's or Spica's Kernel....it virtually flies...
try it man....you will know
Anybody can give me the link for iron kernel for cm7. Thank u

watch the flag system!
You have to change the filename before flashing, i recommend to NOT use "jrnl"!
And never flash it with touch-cwm, it would kill your system/data partitions.

i never used etana kernel yet, so i can't tell.
i just know that "setiron" (the dev of ironkrnL) defo knows what he does.
I use MIUI, perfect look and very fast ROM, but you loose your FM-radio.
Good support- every Weekend a new update.
1st choice!

I guess question was about fastest and most stable ROM, not about "stable and fast enough". ICS on P990 is highly unstable for now. I'm using ICS for daily use and i don't complain, but there's always something that isn't working as it suppouse to. So at this moment CM7 isn't only more stable then ICS, it's faster too. Android 4.0 doeasn't even have hw acceleration yet.

Agreed, at this moment CM7 is much more stable and also faster, i tried CM9 but some apps didn't work and sometimes the phone was getting slow all of the sudden not to mention the browser was always crashing, im using CM7 now and its so fast and stable
You can use CM7 and see it flying, but without some of the phone features, like video call (I'm not talking about Skype or viber, just the native one), smart share, divx, hdmi video resize... Or you can try one of stock roms with the great kernels from here and have a full phone.

Thanks for all the replies. Will try out soon. Also, I have noticed that the battery life for the optimus 2x is so bad! With stock froyo last night, after just about 2hrs of some wifi and games, the battery has already gone down to 15%!!! That's how bad it is!
Is this normal? Should I return the phone to the store?
Also, will the gingerbread update and/or custom rom flashing bring about better life for the battery?

DjangoManouche 1.1 is highly recommended with V20q baseband and HP SR3R2 Kernel. After trying out many stock variants, Modaco ROMS, Thanatos and CM ROMS, I finally settled on this one as it has resolved all the issues I had with the phone and gives good battery and network performance.
Yes, I know that this subject has been beaten to death, but ONE more time:
Can anyone recommend a STABLE and FAST ROM for Galaxy Note?
I am totally disappointed with the JB stock ROMs in terms of speed. I've also been trying CM9 and CM10 at various stages, byt IMO CM is nowadays buggy as hell... gone are the good old days when Cyanogen was still in charge(?)
I tried PA some time ago, but it was a bit buggy too. I'm a bit curious about it however... maybe it's more stable now? I'd also prefer decent support for the stylus.
Alliance ROM maybe..but in terms of this questions!!people's mind are not identical . this is like asking which girl is the Best one for a permanent
girlfriend!!!be a man .go out there and explore the ROMs and from there u might be able to see for urself ^

Totally interested too!
I'm now on latest MIUI however my wife's Iphone 4S is still faster, smoother and stable...
And those who tell 'go and try' - i've already tried 4 custom roms and 3 custom kernels and i'm sick and tired of restoring data every time after those tries.
So if you can really suggest a good, fast and stable custom rom for daily use - please do.

Sorry, dude, was even unable to install this ROM - tried twice but no luck.
Setup started normally 2 times and then quit suddenly - kicked out of CWM.
It's so weird that they have the only option of ROM install via ROM Customizer (no CWM zip support).
Ended up with clean install of the Ultimate JB v5.2 ROM - will try and see how it goes.

have you tried here? - http://galaxynote.roms-db.com/
excellent selection of quality ROMs for you to try, depending on your preference / needs. there are no bad or "buggy" ROMs imho, it's just a matter of personal preference. CM10.1 with Dynamic screen mode, forced GPU and all animations switched off is perfect for me. But that's only my opinion

I am sorry, but threads like "which ROM is best" or "suggest a ROM for me" are not allowed. You should test out the ROMs that interest you and make your own choice.

In that case, I will suggest to our friend @princesama1 to give a shot at Official CM11.
From my experience, it's the most stable and reliable ROM that I had on the phone.
Thanks, but im a little scared of CM's x time ago i tried it in an another phone but i didn't liked it

I recommend that you either try the ROM in my signature or the ROMs built on unofficial sources.
I have no idea why but official stutters during just any game that puts above 70% load on CPU and I even experience lags while recording no matter what kernel I use.This wouldn't happen before but since some time now it's happening and I'd prefer CM 10.2 over CM11 official.
Unofficial sources have updated blobs, some stuff about camera is broken but games are faster, UI and general usage etc. all snappier.
I'd suggest to try out the LiquidSmooth Rom or SlimKat. Had the best experience with those and running LiquidSmooth + Cydoak kernel atm. Works like a charm .
I'm sad... i tried a lot of rom but i like nothing...
Cm11 offical wasnt able to do 4G idk why (i even got sms from Telenor lol) some roms broke
Almost all rom the same...they have only different name
Its so sad, i really liked statusbar in cm
Ill try LiquidSmooth Rom, SlimKat roms when ill learn how to download it ^^'
In your opinion what is better? SlimKat or LiquidSmooth?

Our phone doesn't support LTE or 4G. It supports HSPA+, HSPDA, 3G and other 2G types
There is a possibility for me to buy this phone, but I saw that many games are very laggy, what ROM is the best for gaming? I'm not going to buy it if the performance is worst than my Xperia L.
