O2X noob needs help. :)

Just got myself an O2X. I know that it is not the best dual core phone, but this is all I could get in India for my budget. It's a great phone except for the lack of RAM.
My questions are :
1. Is the CM7.1 fully functional?
2. Does anyone face SODs(Sleep Of Death), i.e. sometimes when my phone is in sleep mode.. it sometimes does not wake up!! I have to take the battery out to switch it on!! But that happens only once in a while.. I'd appreciate any kind of help!!!
3. How much space do we have for storing apps and data? i.e. How much space does the /data have?
4. What are the best tweaks/ways to conserve battery?
Thank You..!

1. FM Radio is missing
2. Some do, some don't
3. 1.5GB on /data
4. Use the phone less

@Rusty thanks.. but how do I fix the SODs?? Will flashing CM7 help? ..or should I get my phone replaced??

Unknown, I don't seem to don't suffer with them.
But there is an effort going on with some kernel stuff to sort it for CM.

Does anyone know the cause? :/

Someone please suggest what I should do to get rid of SODs!! I am very disappointed I spent 24K Rupees for this phone which is defective!! :'(

Unlikely a new rom will help (I flashed FR19 but still had the same issue).
Best thing is take it back for an exchange. Some handsets suffer some don't.
Hope you get an handset that doesn't once exchanged as people without the BSOD (sadly I'm not one of them and mine is being 'repaired' at the moment) say it's a great phone and they're more than happy with it.

Have never had screen of death. Used the phone for about 20 minutes before going custom rom and kernel so I can't say if it's hardware related or not.

I just hope it is a software issue.
And.. when I go to get it replaced.. how am I supposed to reproduce it??!!!? It happens very randomly!!!
Can someone who suffers from the same issue throw light in this regard?! Please!
I am freaking out!! :'(

I seem to be one of the few who had a device like that, which healed. It used to spontaneously reboot, die while charging, all the usual stuff.
I can in no way promise this will fix it for you, but you should at least try to run an update via the LG Mobile Update tool (not an OTA update, not Smartflash.) If you're already updated, flash an older baseband, and run the (LG Mobile) update procedure again.
All I can say is that after I did that, the phone has been rock solid, running exactly the same firmware as before the update.
I repeat, this could very well be, and probably is, a coincidence, but as long as you have 30 minutes to spare, it cannot hurt.
Good luck.

Thank you so very much for showing me some hope!!!
I CAN SPARE A WHOLE DAY TO GET MY PHONE FIXED!!!
I will update to Gingerbread.. if the update is available.. or whatever new update is available..!!
I pray to God that my O2X gets healed!!
The update won't erase my data, right?
I just saw on the bill that goods once sold will not be taken back or replaced!! So.. If I were to get a replacement I'd have to use my warranty!!

One more Q.. which version of CM7 is fully functional and stable..?
Please direct me to the ROM thread if you can.

Gingerbread isn't available yet, but that's beside the point, after you've done the update you can install any rom you like.
The update WILL erase your data, including the internal SD-card. Backup first.

Far from it, you're free to do whatever you like. If you want to see if there is a magic fix in the LG update tool, you'll update the official ROM using that first, and install your rom of choice later.

You should probably read the last 4-5 pages of the forum, that'll give you a good impression of how CM7.1 has been recieved.
Prerequisite is a rooted phone, which you can do with Superoneclick. There are many paths from there, but the easiest is to download ROM Manager, from there install ClockworkMod, download CM7.1 to your sdcard, boot into ClockworkMod and install CM7.1.
There are a ton of threads with information, how-tos and FAQs, search and you will find.
Good luck.

I'd recommending getting rid of bloatware first before trying other ROMs as it us the least intrusive way if I may describe it as such.
Install Android Assistant and find which apps are running in the background that you don't need at all. I found that must LG bloatware is useless and persistently running in the background. freeze things like Car Home, antivirus, LG email, sns and unwanted widgets.
Car Home used to be a major problem if I remember correct.
root your phone using super one click and install systemapk manager and use it toFreeze the unwanted apps and widgets.
I found that doing this improved battery life and stability.
If it doesn't work you can easily reverse by unfreezing and even unroot with super one click.
I'd recommend trying this to see if it makes your phone more usable.

Me and my Mum have to same phone, same store, same month. Both have different issues.
With 7.1 i can't make phonecalls longer than a minute or so or the phone give BSOD, my mum's works fine but the sound is horrid. Same software. Might try new BB&RIL, but every phone seems to be a lil bit different

Thanks, bro!
So.. I should just go to the LG Service Center with the whole box and ask for a replacement, huh?
And what do I do if they deny replacement or say that I'll have to use my warranty? :-\
Oh... one more thing. How long will the replacement process take? Will I have to stay without a phone for weeks??! :-\ :-(
Also.. they will give me a sealed pack as a replacement, right?
Sorry for all the questions. But do answer 'em patiently.
I am just curious and excited to get a phone that actually works well! :-\ :-(

Rooting LG Thrill with ICS (or return it to original 2.2 OS)
I "upgraded" to 4.0.4 a few months ago and my LG Thrill is no longer rooted. There are some apps that I ran on occasion (backups and wireless tethering) that I can no longer run. Because of some of the features of the newer OS, I've learned to live without the root. But, I can't stand the battery usage (more than double what it was before and that is with a brand new battery compared to before with a 2yr old battery).
I have tried more the 2 dozen times to download various free and paid programs to root this phone. Even the one on this site (bin4ary) doesn't work on the LG Thrill. I would gladly contribute or pay anyone who can tell me how to root this phone. Otherwise, I need to find the update-thrill-stock-rom-rooted.zip program (which I can't find either) to return it to the original stage.
PLEASE!!!!

Go to the LG optimus 3D forum and look for osbalts(can't remember the name) method! Its what I used to root mine!

Make sure that you have a working internet on your phone. Go to Settings->About->Update... It will ask for Samsung account. Just add it and check again. It should work..

I got the notification in the afternoon today, but could not update, it kept on giving connection failed when trying to update and I was on data connection. Now at home, on wifi when I am trying to update it is saying that no update is available...!

Can't root VS9803AA Update

Has anyone been able to root the phone after the Verizon VS9803AA update? I have a G2 that was never rooted. The digitizer failed so I replaced it with an OEM LCD+Digitizer and suddenly the phone can only be used when there is bright light. I went ahead and replaced the light sensor, but it doesn't make a difference. I used an application to check the light sensor and it performs just as my G3. My thought is that the problem is software based.
If I manually reboot into recovery, I get the icon of the android with a red exclamation point. Plugging in the USB and holding the volume up does not bring me to download mode, it just displays the battery charge. Did Verizon successfully block the ability to root?

I'm having the same problem with not being able to root I've used IORoot which isn't compatible with lollipop, avicoh one click and . bat which get up to rebooting the phone but ends in an error reading "The system was unable to find the specified registry key or value."
so i read about Injecting root in to system image and then pushing image back to phone. But i haven't seen specifics for the LG G2 have you had any success in rooting the phone with the new VS9803AA Update

The phone as the VS9803AA update and I think it is the cause of the proximity sensor problem. I've read some other posts from people that had rooted and took the update. A different situation, but they have a similar problem. In one of those threads I had read about the bootloader version having changed. It is almost as if Verizon killed the ability to do a recovery on the phone. Nice huh?

Nice wouldnt be the adjective but if the bootloader is different is it possible to extract it and build a root with the new bootloader.
I am new to this however i'm a quick study and have rooted devices in the past ( manually ) I'm just not a developer so there has to be some one working on this right?
In the meantime is it possible to flash an older firmware I'm scared to try with out knowing for certain.

I too am trying to root the VS9803AA with IOroot and it says there is not yet an unlock for this version. I am very frustrated.
EDIT: I did discover how to root! I used the tool found here.
Now if I can figure out something to replace FreeGee, which does not work with AA...

I'm sure it was stock, because this is the first time I've ever tried to root and I did check the software version (VS9803AA) and it said, "Official." Now it says, "Modified."
My original goal in doing all of this was to open up the T-Mobile bands so I can have LTE again. Just left Verizon. But the youtube tutorial I was watching asks me to use FreeGee and it just is not compatible with 3AA as far as I can tell.

To root: webtrickz.com/how-to-root-lg-g2-running-lollipop-with-lg-one-click-root/
To flash TWRP: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=b007.autorecvs980
I haven't tried AutoRec yet, but a review says it works for the 3AA.
Hope this helps, let me know!

Hay there,
Use kingroot the easiest way to root lg g2 without any trouble, try it and let me know thanks

I'm in the same boat - got this Verizon LG G2 from my sister fixed the LCD screen because the digitizer had dead spots. Can't root tried every method I could find and Verizon appears to have patched any working exploits. Also have the same oversensitive proximity sensor. Great job Verizon!!!
UPDATE:
I have root finally! Flash the prior software version 39a as I was not able to get anywhere with 39aa. Used Kingroot to obtain root and installed recovery!!! I installed Xposed and adjusted the values for the proximity and light sensors so that is no longer an issue also.

My stock is too much laggy. I used cyanogen for my S3 and it was working wonderful. I was using lollipop for my S3. That was stable, fast and was packed with features. The LG G2 rom is dead slow. Thanks Suleman for your time and valuable comments.

Im not saying its bad to flash i personally recommend it to you but in stable form ,as it has bugs and in development stage n one more thing if you are camera lover then cynogenmod cam sucks your expectations , stock cam is far way better than this . if you really interested to flash something then go for xdabbes rom which is stock based , search the forum and you will get that,
Good luck

Touch is not working with fingers ,only works with S-pen after using Ez Disabler !!

I installed EZ package disabler , And I disabled few packages ( Gear Service,BBC Service,Beacon Manager.Briefing and excel ) and after that phone Stopped recognizing my fingers touch , I am able to touch by S pen but not by fingers .I enabled those packages - didn't work , So I did factory reset from Recovery still same .
What should I do ?

Well non of those things that you disable will stop you from using your fingers. I suggest reflash your rom and kernel or if you have official rom reflash your official rom. If still persist your digitizer must be broken the reason why spen works because it has a different digitizer from the amoled itself.

Personally I'd download from somewhere other than sammobile because if you don't pay to join them you get a really slow download speed and I don't have high speed for nothing.

Well you did say you did a factory reset and really, that should have fixed it if it was a software issue so I think if a rom reinstall doesn't fix it then it's a hardware problem.. Make sure you enable OEM unlock and Debugging before trying to install the rom, seriously.

I kinda figured it needed to be repaired since you did a factory reset and that didn't work.

Having same problem here. Will be sending my phone in tomorrow. In my case, touching wont work, S Pen works. Top left corner of screen and bottom corner recognize touch. Touch screen fully works at random times for random amounts of time, without any changes done to phone.

I guess it's same problem as mine. Samsung replaced my display..now it works fine ,but they dented my home button and home button is even not pop out like it should be so they told me they will replace home button after few days as they don't have home button available. Stupid ppl.
