[Q] Is the Optimus 2X laggy?

Hello,
I want to ask optimus 2X owners something,
I read a review on engadget
And they say that the optimus 2X's software is laggy and that the memory is not enough
Is that true? or can I buy my optimus 2X without any doubt?
Thank you

No, retail software 2.2.2 is stable and not laggy.

It was very fast until the new rom update that sprint put out. Now everything just crawls. Used to have root as well. Now just looking to maybe get a different rom loaded

No lags.

lag?
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA Premium App

Mine is rooted, some applications frozen - I have noticed nothing i would call lag.

Well, I disagree with recent sentiment in this thread.
It does lag.
No terribly so but it's patently obvious that some processes don't use SMP and as a result lag is evident.
Whenever the package manager is accessed or a notification comes in the phone seems to go into serial processing mode and effectively hands processor priority to the system app.
In my opinion this is software related and is fixed in Honeycomb - these lags are not apparent on a Moto Xoom (2.3) but they are apparent on a Moto Atrix (2.2).
Examples:
Play a CPU intensive game and force a notification, watch it momentarily stall.
Queue a lot of Market downloads and wait till they start "installing" - try using your phone.

Are you sure you are talking about the right phone? i think you are in the wrong section, this is about the Optimus 2X, not Optimus S...

Lol it doesn't lag

Yes you are correct. Seen my mistake after posting

My homescreen is almost always laggy.
Weather animation lags to.
The phonecall quality is also bad.
Its not what i've expected from a dual core phone and
Im not 100% happy with this gadget.

laggy? I would say it got some certain hangtimes on occasions...
at 1st, there was no lags, now I had it for about 14 days, and its filled up with a lot off apps. I get hangtimes when installing a new app. That was not the situation in the beginnning. Also got some hangtimes when exiting some apps on occasion.
I found a workaround though.
I rooted, installed autokiller (not a usual task killer as you might think of) and Cache Cleaner NG.
Also, I installed Titanium backup, and "froze" or uninstalled unnessecary apps, stock apps etc. Now I got a lot more free ram, and a quicker ROM.
I use Zeam Launcher and I have frozen LG launcher.
But don't get to worried. When android 2.3 comes around, it will be much faster, as 2.2 doesn't support dual core + 2.3 is much more optimized.
Battery life + user experince will increase tenfold or more
The best phone till date in my oppinion.
looking forward to HTC Pyramid though, which I dont expect to be around the next 6 months, and by then, I'm able to get a new phone

The LG Launcher is not really that good, not laggy but not super responsive either. I user LauncherPro and haven't experienced any lag at all. I'm amazed at this phones speed.

LG Optimus Black vs Google Nexus One

Hi! A friend of mine offers his nexus one + money for my OB, and, seriously, I dont know what to do, 'cause hardware in OB is way superior but there are so many cool roms for nexus one...
What is your opinion?
Thanks in advance :highfive:

the nexus. it's a google phone thus it has exclusive updates (see jb) and there is a bigger community developing for it.

But on the otherhand try to find out why he is opting for the OB
And if you play games, keep it unless the nexus becomes faster using custom roms
Anyways you see
Sent from my LG-P970 using Tapatalk

I think the looks of the OB are awesome, so is the screen. The nexus one only is better for the software development...dunno, its hard to decide. The point is that I dont play games, so the gpu is not a deciding factor, but the smoothness of the ui and the different android versions, sense ui...
Sent from my LG-P970 using xda app-developers app

Keep your ob
Skickat från min LG-P970 via Tapatalk 2

Yup...waut for others to reply
If you dont care about software tweaking...go ob
And by tweaking, flashing nearly everyday, the phone is not used for its purpose
We do that for performance and theme mostly...id say stick to ob
Use it as it should have been.
.email, calender, facebook etc
Tweaks will come sooner or later
Sent from my LG-P970 using Tapatalk

Thanks 4 your opinion! Well, I think I'm finally stickin' with the OB, lets trust in the great developers we have in xda!

nexus One = small screen, Pentile, bad camera, etc

nexus= lots of custom roms

Even with the advantage of a bigger comunity, I think that the Nexus One is a little too old.

GTA: Vice City for Android, no Optimus 4X HD

Following the footsteps of its predecessor, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is making its way to Android and iOS. Rockstar announced today that a special 10th Anniversary Edition of the open world Scarface / Miami Vice inspired sim will be hitting the two popular mobile platforms on December 6th for $5. No LG Optimus 4X HD in supported devices, but HTC One X is.

I suppose they'll add it sooner or later. Might even work with the HOX version.

even any LG device does'nt mention

You're wrong. Google/LG Nexus 4 phone and LG Optimus Pad tablet are mentioned.

There is always ways on making it work. Every game works on my 4x just fine. Just download to other options then Google Play. Just an idea.

I have serious problems playing Shadowgun THD and NFS: Most Wanted on my Optimus 4X HD (V10g). In case of Shadowgun, I have to use normal version, Most Wanted - downgrade graphics. I downloaded the game (Most Wanted), I paid for it, so I want full support. If not, EA could say in the description: We do not support LG Optimus 4X HD, so **** off. Now, no word about lag or not fully supported some of Tegra 3 devices.

I think that JB update will solve our problem with games, because it has huge performance improve
U can see it how it was with HOX, after 4.0.4 update and 4.1

I understand ur frustration but shadow gun and shadow gun dead zone and most wanted all run with no issue on my lg 4x HD.

i bought the game and installed latest version 1.02. worked like a charm. even with hi resolution there is no lag. just didnt it test with all things maxed out.
Impressive how they ignored the 4X even if its completely playable.

yeah im quiet impressed that 4X isnt in the compatible list on google play. runs exactly like gta 3.

The only reason it's not on the list is because it hasn't been tested yet, not because it won't work

whats wrong with your 4X, you always say the game lags on your device. are you shure youre phone is a Optimus 4x hd ?
ig gta3 lags on yours, than vice city will , too.

Maybe I'm a bit weird but decision on buying myself an lg 4x is determined on fact of gta:vc working well on it. So tell me finally - will this work as it should on Tegra3?
Another question, are all these big games movable to sd? 16gbs is so small so its great to have an sd slot when phones like nexus 4 don't.

in my opinion yes, i tried to film my 4X but my camera sucks. The game plays ok. if you can wait until weekend, i will provide a video.

Or here is the video I checked on YouTube before making my mind to buy the game..

No way that a phone like O4XHD cannot run a game like this.. i like my phone very much and it didn't disappoint me while playing any game..

I will try to do a factory reset and buy Vice City. I'm upset, of course. NFS: Most Wanted, GTA III (little) and Shadowgun THD lags. Still waiting for Jelly Bean miracle.

You have the white 4x? I have the black one and you don't notice that black space. Also the latest software improves camera focus quite a lot. Still bad on close up shots but the app cameramx is fixing that close up focus issue quite nicely. Also latest update improves battery. That's the major improvements I can think off. Yes screen is nice. I think it beats the s3 screen and is closely to the hox screen.

yeah, i have the white one.. i figure that the black spot was not to bee seen on the black version. the screen is so impressive. the whole phone is. i think i didnt expect it because it is so cheap compared to the more expensive quad cores. couldnt be more happy

I honestly always thought that lg makes good phones. Even the 2x speed was a great piece of hardware the software was bad. LG made everything better on the 4x and the optimus g is great and also the nexus 4. Those are all lg and since lg has a bad reputation that makes their products cheaper but not less impressive. I didn't keep my s3 or hox. And sold them and got the 4x. The screen is better then the s3 and has not the burnin issue. And the hox has a way worse battery. The only thing is still no software update and no fully root. LG is not good in updating phones.

no doubt. The 4x is my first LG smartphone. i had many phones, ut this phone is so amazingly quick. i can do everything without to mutch lag. i have som problems in games? i dont know why. but i have some small lags. i tried gta3 for the first time on this phone today, and it frozed in the first mission. weard. but i hope we get unlocked bootloader soon, cause this phone with jellybean would be amazing. i remeber my galaxy s2 with jellybean rom was very fast, so i imagin this will bee too. not that it is slow now, but it never gets good enough i guess i contacted lg the other day, and they only said that the jelly bean is on its way. nothing about when or so.

As for gaming. Install if u r rooted something like setcpu set it to 1500 MHz without any lowest 1500 MHz as welland performance and games should be performing fine.
For jelly Bens is supposebly coming 1st quarter of 2013

[help] Xperia T or Xperia L?

I'm buying one of these phones very soon Just want some opinions before I decide.
Did the latest FW update fix the auto focus sound when recording video in Xperia T? Which do you think takes better pictures?
Xperia L surely have better 3D performance with Adreno 305 and lower screen res. But is Xperia T lag at any game at all(Gameloft/RR3...)? I'm a gamer so this is quite important for me
How's the battery life in XT?
Also, Do you guys think Xperia T will get Android 5 if it's ever gonna be released this year (or at least CM11..)? (stupid question, I know)
Thanks in advance

Xperia T vs Xperia L is like : I buy a c63 amg or a donkey LOL
Seriously,the L have the newest adreno but the T have A S4 Krait and HD screen,no lag.
I hope i helped a little
Good luck

the T is beautiful and the L ugly.. CM sucks, I never had a bug free version on any phone.. Will KLP come to the T? who knows.. hopefully it will

xperia t is far more superior than xperia l
no lags at all and battery life is also good
latest firmware is also quite stable now and chances may be less of klp since jb 4.3 is next and xperia t is on 4.1.2 yet
so never lose hope and think positive
