A shiny toy from LG just landed

Hi guys .. just got the Optimus 2x review unit.
I have it for about 2 weeks to try.
You guys got any questions about the device ? anything you want to know ? Will try to answer

Status LED
Oh Great!
yeah, here's the first one:
I saw on different pictures just left to the upper speaker several... let's say "spots".. in the display. I suppose one is for the brightness regulation and the others? For what they are? Would be amazing if one of these spots is a Status LED! Could you come up with this info?
thanks!
PS: h t t p://presse.lge.de/riot-utils/download/media/3/87566576697678/lg_optimus_speed_2.jpg Here you'll see what I mean.

probably proximity senzor, I dont think it has led indicator.

test battery life with sync and all apps and backround services,debugging etc off.
tet standby over a night with 3g and 2g.
then test heavy sufing with opera mini and standard browser on lowest and hight brightness

Yeah battery is important.

real life performance
Hi
I would be interested to know how smooth the optimus 2x would be after one day of usage and without using an application killer.
from my experience with the Galaxy S, the phone is quite smooth at boot time, but after sometime of usage where you would open and exit apps, the phone would get really laggy and even unusable to the extent that you have to reboot. People resort to using task killers to improve the phone performance which negates the purpose behind the android OS as it is designed to run at the same speed irrespective of whether you have 200 mb of free ram or 40 mb of free ram
So is this same with the optimus 2X or is the smooth experience persistent
Thanks

sadly .. its only the proximity sensor and nothing else .. digged into the menus and could not find anything about notification led

It's fault of Froyo not the Phone i think. There is multi task but no chance to close apps. With gingerbread update it will be better i think.
BATTERY ?

Does it play divx/xvid/mkv out of the box? and in 1080p?
If not, does any market app like vplayer or rockplayer solve it?

could you tell me if the LG flavour of Android includes the original News and weather widget?

Lag is a software problem not a hardware problem. The question is whether its a problem pertinent to the Android system itself or the vendor specific add-ons (bloatware) that each vendor adds (Touchwiz, htc sense, etc)

I picked the phone up about a week ago.. Here's what I can tell you about the performance over time.
Immediately after a reboot it runs like a dreams.. even after a couple days its fine. I ended up having to reboot today because it was starting to get pretty laggy. But like rouvax said, i believe thats an OS problem, not a phone problem.

The phone comes with an app called CarHome (one of google's apps i believe), which after looking at the battery usage is an energy hog. After killing that, and some of the other bloatware that comes on it, the phone will last me a day or so of light usage with wifi constantly on. Playing a lot of games will obviously drain the battery, down to about 8-10 hrs from what i've noticed, I haven't tested it extensively for exact numbers

Did u have information about the sar value? It's usually add to the box..

Hi!
One thing that would be nice to is if there is a widget to enable/disable mobile data connection.
What I mean is the widget "mobile" that (mostly?) HTC devices have.
Maybe the 2X/Speed has one under "LG Widgets".
Here are some screenshots of what I mean:

I know about this. Thx but i am trying to find out the EU version .. if he got it maybe he can help me(us)
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App

Hi,
Does the 2x support USB OTG or USB host, i.e. is it possible to access an external USB storage? Would be great to stream media from an external hard drive via DLNA or HDMI. A micro-SD card is too small for a feature-length 1080p movie.
Thanks

- Does it have a good and loud speaker function so it can be used in a car (as navigation)?
- Can de LG launcher be disabled in favor of the stock android launcher?

[Q] Xperia TX Battery Draining Fast

Hey Guys,
I just got my Xperia TX last week, and I have to say I really love it. But I have one issue with my phone, the battery drains really fast. I always use internet, wifi and bluetooth (smartwatch). I can get around 4 to 5 hours before it drains out. Also I noticed that after booting up, my dual core CPU is always at 1.5GHz almost all the time, using system panel lite. Is this normal? Any suggestions guys?
Thanks.

Check what process is consuming the CPU or I suspect it to be a faulty SD card or even a faulty phone..

Thanks I will try to remove my sd card, and try not to use my smartwatch that uses my Bluetooth.
Let's see if I will observe some improvements.

Multitasking lag and app freezing

So, I am very fond of my N7 and use it for virtually everything ( except phone calls as I use my iPhone for that but nexus 4 will be my new friend soon) but recently things have been bumpy as it seems there is some kind of memory management issue because of which if I switch between too many apps everything starts to lag. This is present is CM 10.1, Aokp, PA and all ROMs I have tried and its killing me inside! Even music starts to lag due to this and I am baffles by this issue as this has never happened before.
So, is anyone else facing this!? Does this have anything with 4.2.1 in general or is this a kernel level issue?
Lastly is there any solution to it or should I downgrade to 4.1.2!?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium HD app

The only time I experienced such is with some of the apps on my phone. I think that is due to a rogue app hogging memory. Haven't experienced flashing custom roms on N7 yet though. But I think you should look at the apps you have installed.

Two things are known to cause this on N7
1/ Lack of free space
2/ Multi-user accounts on the device
(although 2/ may cause 1/)

^
I second the poster above me. I've read threads where they experience sluggishness when they are low in storage space. Haven't experienced that on my 32GB nexus 7 though. I still have 12GB left and its still smooth as silk in terms of transition and performance.

I have 4gb free memory on 3g modell, but everything go smoothly. Yesterday i have too much lags, but i too quickly switching apps, mx player, chrome, Gdisk, angry birds, youtube.
After restart, everything go on right way.

So I am not sure how that adds up...............

Anybody noticed that? I have micro lags too...

So far for me exactly the same as 5.0 - smooth and lag free

False. It´s even faster.

Same for me.

5.0.1 doubled my speed !

After a new flash it seems really faster

It's no different for me.

It now butters my toast.

My only problem is with battery. 60% in 3 hours without touch the smartphone.

its smooth as butter man here man, i would say even better reception with new radio

It seems like any update has a random chance of causing issues such as slow downs. Try a factory reset.

I feel faster

For me 1% with wifi off.

Feels faster for me too. I noticed it immediately.

5.0.1 seems to bring the micro stutters (music buzzing) that are more often now than on 5.0. I had before a Nexus 4 and the stuttering was really bad. Had flashed the factory image of 5.0.1 and the stuttering is worse than ever. Went back and forth between 5.0 and 5.0.1 just to test behavior, but regarding this issue, 5.0.1 is much worse. Reverted back to 5.0 as it is more stable. And kernel build date, 20 October, really? (as there seemed to be slight changes between 5.0 and 5.0.1)

This discussion is pretty useless TBH. It depends on the user mostly. Someone's got 50 apps installed and uses the phone just for phone calls, someone else may have 250 apps installed and uses the phone for all kind of things. Which means you can't really compare it.

B370 First Impressions

I have only been using it around 12 hours but it seems a lot snappier than stock MM and a hell of a lot better than the last round of beta's.
Memory management seems vastly improved.
Few little things are annoying me like sharp noises when making a call, black notification drawer.
Also my banking app (Barclays) doesn't work.
However so far there aren't any problems that will stop me from using this as a daily driver.
I can't comment on battery life yet as I only took my phone off charge a few hours ago.
What does everyone else think?

I think that's worth waiting I'm working on B336 since January (beta project) and I'm happy with battery, maybe performance could be a bit better. But if B370 is as good as you say, than all grand.

I guess there ia no app drawer and private space?

there is an app drawer, just like in b336

It's great but my camera doesn't work

Private space and app twin are not there, same as USB OTG. Apart from that, it's working great,stable, fast, smooth, it's prettier than MM. I feel that battery life is worse than on MM - for now I get something like hour less screen on time than on MM (5 and a half vs 6 and a half hours). But, it's too early to tell - I found out only today that WiFi scanning was turned on, although I have turned it of while on MM. Also, seems like RAM management is even more aggressive on Nougat, and that's a bad thing for multitasking. There's additional bloat - Avast antivirus is included. I don't need f_cking antivirus on my phone.

Phone i much faster and fluid , remote app for telefunken tv does not work , cannot find tv , and no one app for locking the screen works , it locks the screen but when you try to unlock from fingerprint , asks for pin , otherwise everything is fast , great and beautiful....

I decided to update to B370..for now everything is smooth,but... One thing from MM is still here.
.Autofocus when rec video whit stock camera not working... Everythime I need to tap on screen to get focus..Huawei have to fix this.

I've gotten 6 hours with 25% still left i even wrote it down to see how it did, could have gone 7 hours easily and that's constantly using the phone on 60% brightness unlocked the whole time watching videos even some web browsing (i have too much time on my hands.)

Screen on time is not the problem. Standby Drain is the problem. If u dont use it much and leave it idle it drains without any reason.

No drain here in standby at B370. Everything working well. For example, going to sleep with 60%, after 8 hrs geting up with 58% left. Bluetooth works fine, Camera and Video focus working. No crashes or reboots. I dont know why a lot oft people having these Problems. Before i upgrade from MM, i maked sure that enough free space (5 GB) is available. After Upgrade i did a full Factory Reset.
