I am going to purchase this but can anyone give me the lowdown on this.
I am a diehard android fan and own every tmobile device, are all functions working on this device?
I mean the important stuff, wifi, browser, games, g-sensor, 3d games?
I was going to get an archos 70 but this looks way cooler and customizable.
Please let me know.
Wifi works fine. I can connect to my home network just fine. Also works connecting to my Samsung Vibrant's mobile AP wifi.
Browsing work. Stock browser is a very sluggish experience. I'm using Dolphin and still find it to be a slower experience than on my Vibrant phone. Wish it was faster. But it's acceptable performance.
G-sensor seems to be working fine. Was playing Raging Thunder and it worked great.
However there is an issue with some games. They will not play at full screen resolution and seem to run in a smaller 4:3 aspect ratio (looks like 600x800) with black borders on the side.
I haven't tried a lot of games. Angry Birds (both) and Paper Toss work in full screen. Solitaire, Raging Thunder don't work at full screen.
But the performance of the games seems good so far.
To me, Dolphin HD (along with the rest of the system) is plenty fast with SetCPU running min 600/max 800 ondemand.
Really, there have been surprisingly few things I've come across that I haven't been able to do-- even without a custom ROM/kernel. I couldn't be happier with this--and development has really just started (I'm sure some brilliant devs found one under their tree today).
If you're looking for a solitaire game, Klondike Solitaire is a full screen app.

If you install spare parts and uncheck compatibility mode. A lot of games and apps become full screen.

The problem for some of those games then becomes the graphics are full screen but the touch-UI isn't. So, you have to click above or below the on-screen buttons to hit them. I've also seen a game (Hungry Shark) where the in-game locations no longer correspond to the graphical locations (the shark thought the water's surface was well below where it really was, so he couldn't get up to the actual surface, like he was hitting an invisible wall).
Hopefully these apps will be updated for tablet resolutions soon.
I purchased a note from amazon last week . when the phone arrived the screen had the banding issue so I re ordered a replacement
The smoothness of the banded phone was really good - yes the home screens lagged a little however the new phone which arrived today has a real lag .. it doesnt seem fluid when moving between home screens , the apps tray does seem smooth ..... i have HD widgets on my home screen, my email app and message app widgets and couple of contacts on direct dial
It just doesnt seem fluid as it should be with a dual core 1.4 .....
Is it possible for the processor to be faulty or am I worrying about something which will be changed on ICS .... I know I am looking hard for faults as I want the perfect handset at the price ive paid ...
The screen on this one is perfect as far as I can tell (ive decided some apps have the banding not the screen) I have decided its perfect because a HD film is out of this world .
What do you think .. if im happy with the screen and everything else .. is the lag something which will go over time with firmware update
Thanks in advance
HD widgets make the screen transition laggy(only on that page).. just try removing it./..
I'd say its fully possible with faulty hardware similair to pc with fault ram. Me and My friend have the same issue, my note is fully tweaked and he is on stock rom NO tweaks. He never experiences the 1-3 lag that i've described in my topic so yes I think there are faulty units, since In my case even when reverting to stock the 1-3sec lag is there, yawn!
Were they both running the same firmware?
Did you upgrade your Firmware OTA (Settings -> Phone Info -> Software Update)? If no, do so. The current firmware is WAY more responsive.
Its probably possible everyone goes on about lag here but mine is smooth always, the only time it lags is when I first get on the homescreen after boot up after a couple of seconds though the lag disappears.
There are a lot of lag complaints on the note, Im yet to actually see one though so Im guessing it could be a defective part.. why not try to hardreset the phone and see from there?
Hi, this is David. I have the optimus 4x, and i have to admit that it's one of the best devices i've owned so far, i've just been wondering about a few issues that shouldn't exist with a quad-core 1.5 GHz processor and 1 GB of RAM. I will list them here and wish anyone could help.
1- The Camera
Not the video focusing issue which is fixed after the V10e update, now it's photos turn. When i open the camera, everything looks sharp and great, but it's not after capturing the photo because when i look at the photo in the gallery, it's somehow out of focus and the picture looks ugly overall. I've tried resetting the camera settings and tried other camera apps but no difference.
2-Game lags
That's something i saw people talking about and they said that these games aren't optimized for Tegra 3 because it was new in the market. So now why they're still lagging, even very basic games like subway surfers.
3-Incoming call screen lag
This screen is represented in two ring buttons (accept or reject) with waves coming out of them, i have to say this screen is very laggy so i can't just swipe my finger to accept the call but i have to do it slowly and wait a second before it's done of accepting the call.
4-Youtube
Sometimes a video lags once or twice in a 5 mins video which doesn't happen when watching other videos in gallery.
Yes, i know that's too much issues but what makes me confused is the device's overall speed when browsing the web and others... Even the benchmarks are showing excellent scores that sometimes beat the HTC one X. So what could be the problem?!
2. - on my , lags also Tegra optimized games ... so LG FW suck ... wait for JB, and after that (if stock dont fix it) come CM
Odd... I've had two different Call screens. One was with the circles to swipe like the S2/S3, the other was with square buttons to tap. Don't remeber in what app I was when the screen changed tho.
I've never noticed the lag in the incoming call screen, or maybe I didn't bother with it. As for YouTube it naever game me issues.

one is when you recieve a call while device is locked (the swype one), the other one is when you recieve the call when it's unlocked (button one)
i have no lag on youtube, gaming is great with a slowdown now-and-then (NFS MW, for example. Vice City played with no lag at all), and camera is as good as any smartphone, even though i didn't quite test it as mmuch as i should've.

Oh I see, I got the button call once when I was messing around with my phone (First day I got it).
Vice City gives me no issues whatsoever, no lag at all just a short audio pause once in a while but hadly noticeble.
NFS works well IF there are only 2-3 card rendered on-screen, otherwise the framerate just drops. I believe it's the reflections... if there would be a way to disable them on other cars and keep them on yours the game would run smooth. Funny how the lag itself gives me a warning.. if framerate drops be sure there's a roadblock ahead.
All the other games I've played so far are smooth (Asphalt 7, NOVA 3, Shadowgun.)
As for the camera, I haven't really tried it. I'm not the photo-taker kind of guy.

I don't know what's wrong with your phone. It's rather odd.
I'm on Stock ICS with v10h (no flashes, no root, I have the phone as I recieved it). I'm halfway trought Asphalt 7 same as for Vice City.
NOVA 3 gave some lag issues on the first level then it stopped. Shadowgun (Specially the second one, the multiplayer) gave me no lag at all, everything is fine.
The one thing that bugs me about the phone currently is the poor battery life. Think that if you have 2150 mAh your battery would last, but nope. It's the poor LG software and bloadware that sucks it up, I might root my phone once JB rools out to get rid of some useless services.
Hi , just wanted to ask if anyone had any problems while gaming ? I've been playing bullet force and notice while moving about the touch screen gets sticky inside the game.
It does not hot happen straight away but more like 3 or 4 mins in to the game.
Seems to me it's something to do with the heat which goes through to the screen and warms the screen up so much that that the touch does not register correctly.
Just wondering if someone can try and see if they have the same problem or it could just mean mine is defective?
The only thing is that I'm not having any problems with other games tho.
No problem here. I have tried it and played like 15 minutes. I believe there is a problem with the game code.
I don't have this problem with my games. Try other games to see if you have same problem.
Hello everyone!
So I have the red magic 3 camo european version. It was everything cool. For the first 2 weeks.. after then I noticed some weird problems when playing PUBG: The touch screen feels "heavy" , "jumping" when I move (switch) my finger across the screen. Its been for a while now. Tried factory reset several times , Installed new OS after releasing ( V2.15 ) nothing has fixed it! I also noticed when I turn my phone off for a few days it gets a little bit better( swiping on screen is smoother), but only for this day (days) I Also noticed when I start recording PUBG with game launcher's screen recorder the problem gets worse ( like a lot ) Impossible to play.. ( it even starts frame dropping!!!) [email protected] seems they doesn't care about their customers and just Ignoring me:laugh:
Anyone has the same problem or know the solution? Pleaseee help:crying::crying::crying:
How bad of frame drops?
And yeah support is useless unless you have a strong social media fallowing.
Its like watching a slowmotion video..terrible
Have you tried any other ROMs like the NA rom?
No. I didn't ( im in Europe not NA)

Maybe I can help with your warranty, just send me your IMEI number and tell me where did you get this phone.

It's hardware related issue. Turn your phone off for a few days if you can. It will get much better for some time
