And I just installed CM7 for the first time LOL! And so far I'm impressed.we will see I'm a day or two though.

That is a default screen from APX mode, that is NOT from an OTA update and never will be.

Just pull the battery. It happens sometimes.

Alright, true enough.. did a battery pull..and nil.. sorry for any uproar.. lol back to patiently waiting.

As you know, we HAVE received the update already long time ago.. and yes, any update is better than none. I don't know why people keep saying that updating messes up their phones..

Just reverted back to stock and now I get reboots never got one with a custom rom, I want to figure what bloatware is causing it.

One of the options in Titanium Backup's schedules is to include a reboot after the backup.

haha ya but some of those times it doesn't boot back up lol. I'm probably going abck to root world.

i'm extremely happy with gingerbread though i never had to go through the big problems of froyo. my only problem is occasional lag and also my lock screen lags terribly but those are only minor annoyances not really problems

Froyo wasn't the problem either. In fact I'm still running a Froyo rom as my daily driver. It was all the bloatware. As soon as I got rid of all the unnecessary stuff T-Mobile had preinstalled I stopped having issues with my phone.

i still have every single bloatware app on my phone and i have no problems

I heard people saying Gingerbread removed 1080p video recording and the LG camera app features?

This is not necessarily true. There are different models of G2X, what the differences are I don't know but the LG Update Tool will brick one of them (though it can be fixed).

First off, 1080p video is only through LG cam; no other camera app is capable of it on the G2X. And yes, the official 2.3.3 build removed the LG camera, replacing it with the (significantly weaker) AOSP camera. However, a team of devs has gotten the LG camera working on 2.3.3 and is currently trying to get it onto 2.3.5.

Am pretty happy with it even tho I didn't start having major problems like rebooting untill I upgrade to 2.3 but its not really a big deal because it only happens once in a blue. My friend on the other hand I feel bad because he upgraded to gingerbread and still has every problem known to the g2x. And the reason why I feel bad is cause I told him how great the phone was so he went out the purchased it at full price. Shortly after I joined u wonderful folks at xda and started reading the nightmares

Battery life draining fast

I have no idea how to fix this. I've tried three roms eaglssblood ice singhui and Hellfire Phoenix. I installed Trinity on Phoenix yet it is still draining battery. Why?

Try calibrating your battery.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium

There is a rogue app in your drawer. download watchlist app, it will keep track on other apps which are hogging your system.

Battery calibration won't and doesn't do anything useful... its more then likely an app or something running constantly. What's your screen on times? Post a screenshot of your battery usage.

I'm on 2.3.4 with practically all the bloat and more removed, holy hell battery is terrible for me... if testing to find rouge apps doesn't work I'm gonna factory reset and just not install any thing. Today I didn't hardly use my phone (no work) sat around on the computer, paid some bills watched some movies and TV, sent two text messages and read 3 emails battery was at 65% after 3 ½ hours... 3 of which was idle time and screen off. Never had it so bad before.

Anytime. That's usually the first thing I do when I install a rom based on lg stock. That app runs constantly eating data and ram. You will usually gain almost 1mb of open ram by just deleting it.

Ya I knew there was something I was missing, considering my average use on most 2.3.3 roms would be at least 16-20 hours, I was barely getting 10-11 hours after the update. So thanks again!

On what type of usage? I can hardly get more than 8 hrs on medium usage .
What the hell is qem_warlock .it's been on my kernel warlock since I unplugged.

I pretty much don't play games and don't stream music or anything like large data usage. I call text browse and read articles and such, XDA and Facebook is about it for other usage though, light in most eyes, and I under-clock the phone to 700's usually.

Ya I agree, the phone at 600ish on stock kernel runs just fine for texting and calls and checking Facebook... usually what I run when I'm out at bars with my friends cause it usually ends up being a weekend without my charger, I've over clocked the phone maybe twice, no point in my eyes lol.

ICS Force Close Wait Time

is this a bug in the leaks or an actual feature/conceptual bug? I hope its not the later, but it annoys the hell out of me. It doesn't happen often, but when it does, sometimes i gotta wait a good minute before I can use my phone again

It happend to me couple times but only on when i'm returning missing call from call log. Contacts Force Close and i need to wait some around good 50-60 sec.

I don'tt know, but I hope it doesn't remain like this. FC that lasts almost a whole minute is terrible and unacceptable.

It happens to me multiple times a day but more so in different apps.for example if I try to look at PM's in this app, Facebook freezes and my AWD launcher has froze a couple times but my battery life is so good with ICS that I'm willing to deal with it lol

My Groupon app would FC and hang and it would take a good 30 seconds before it would tell me anything.

I am having the same issue. I am glad that at least it does not freeze up. I think the 2nd leak has more force close than the 1st one. I am also experiencing a lag in touch response on the 2nd leak, but am still on it only because the battery life seems to be little better.

I don't know for sure if all ics phones do this, but I get a force close a dump is made on my phone of all kinds of information in it. Kinda like a windows mini dump when it gets a blue screen. I'm hoping this is just because these are test builds. If I had to bet, I would say that is why the fc process is taking so long though.

that makes a lot of sense. considering its a development build a memory dump and system log could explain the long wait

Phone occasionally locks and drops data

So, I love this phone but have one issue that seems odd to me. As an example I am currently running pandora and tried opening the xda app which caused what appeared to be a fc but my phone kept running pandora and went to a black screen for a minute then a faded screen which eventually lead to a drop in data (briefly). Every thing was briefly unresponsive... It acted exactly like a reboot without rebooting. When I was able to unlock the screen I had no data service (briefly) and all apps closed. Xda app often fc's which is not a big deal to me but causing the black screen and data drop is concerning to me. I also had this happen when opening the phone info app while running nothing else. Should I be concerned about this? Software or hardware? I am running stock.
Edit: Have also had to reboot due to dropped data but it may have been during a switch between 4G or 3g even 1x.

same thing happens to me, not sure why. I went through and froze all bloat with titanium backup, and it still happens

It's not something I can make happen, just happens randomly. I have 5 days to return this so I would like to figure it out. If a software update would fix it I would just deal with it for now but I'm not sure what the problem is.

I just talked to Samsung on their live chat and they recommended I return the phone and exchange for new. I am still in the 14 day return window so I will ask for brand new even if I have to pay their $35 fee.

The policy is there is no $35 reatocking fee for the same phone swap. Don't let them tell you different. Your phone is DOA. Its a warranty exchange.

No.. tons of us have data issues. My phone hot booted in my hands the other night and it was the first time I experienced it, but I've seen reference to it before.
Your issues are not isolated.
I gave up with tech support and wishing a new phone would fix it and turned to third party development. My first time flashing a ROM. I used synergy and have been really thrilled with it.
Sucks to have to fix a brand new phone. Sucks to be a beta tester for Samsung and vzw.

I did not try wiping the phone because the first one was only nine days old and I had not done much with it. The second one lasted a day and now I am on my third. I really hope this does not happen again. The people at the Verizon store said they have never heard of this..... They think it's an app... I only have 12 apps installed. I don't know what I'm going to do if this happens with this phone. This is frustrating. I do not want to get stuck with a phone that has a problem like this.

Mine does the same thing. Besides the stock stuff, I loaded Pandora, Google Music, Amazon MP3, and Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean: Master of the Seas game. It was nice enough to wait until just after the 14 day return window to start locking up and misbehaving. The only way I could get it back was to do a battery pull. Of course, when I brought it to the store it ran like a champ! If you can get another replacement, make sure it says 'UPDATED' on the box. Those have a newer kernel / baseband and seem to be working better.

All of mine have said updated on the box. I am trying to limit apps for now and will slowly add them if I have no issues.
