anyone know how to get rid of the "Charging Complete" dialog?

Who the hell thought this would be useful? SO what, charging is complete, carry on goddam it.
Anyone know how to turn this off?
Praying CM is coming soon...
cheers

Yeah, that's kind of annoying -- I charge my phone every night while I'm asleep, and with that dialog on the screen, the volume buttons don't function as a "snooze" request for the alarm clock, so I have to pick up the phone to clear the dialog before I can respond to the alarm. Not convenient.

Anyone???
I am having this issue also....other droid phones have the secret menu access to turn this off....I cannot find it on this phone.

I hate it as well. Hoping someone knows how to stop it. I've found turning the phone face down helps. I'm a light sleeper and even that little bit of light bothers me.

Yeah this is very annoying I hope someone figures out how to remove it

Fix: flash a non-LG rom. CM7, Faux, xboarder, birgertime. I would imagine they all do not include this dialog since they're AOSP roms.
On a side note, I've seen a hidden menu accessible through a custom shortcut with ADW Launcher. Just search the forums for details. As to weather it's an option in the hidden menu, no idea.

I've gone through all the options in the hidden menu thing, can't find anything about this dialog anywhere.
I hate it at least twice as much as all of you do, and probably twice as much as any other person on the planet since my phone sits in a dock next to my face all night, Alarm Clock Plus dims the screen when in the dock, until that damn dialog pops up and the screen pops back to somewhere near as bright as the sun, like clockwork, at 3am every day until i click "ok".
I'm very close to installing CM7 to get rid of it (and also try that new uv kernel that's supposed to get you a full day on a battery)... but i'm really trying to hold off until we get an official GB release for them to build CM7 off of.

Seriously! It's unbelievably annoying things like this that make me wonder if phone developers even use the phones or even any other smartphones themselves! Because I can't understand why they'd do things like this if they did!!

Ha ha, I just got the "Charging Complete" dialog while reading this post.

Just install CM7. lmao. Why do you guys torture yourselves?
The Stock LG roms are horrible. You can flash a CM7 while you wait for the official GB rom to hit.
There is no winner for who can hold out the longest using G2x stock software.

I had CM7, I went back to Eagles blood froyo rom for the Lg camera, and the hdmi out feature. I use it at home all the time.

^ AGREED ^ Just flashed to CM7 yesterday with the help from some great members here. And it ROCKS. And I dont have to hear that stupid arse thing anymore saying "Excuse me...your battery is full charged., take it off the charger now dumbass or you will risk turning the world into a barren wasteland".

Scratchy sound from speaker/headphones

I have just started noticing this a couple of days ago. When i am playing music from the speaker or headphones i hear a scratching/popping sound when: i use the touch screen, turn the screen on and off, pretty toggle mobile data. I am running heinz 57. Has anyone else had this problem?

I would get feedback when using the puzzle answer option in heinz. Disabled, now it's gone away.
If you have it, check your voodoo control app. Make sure that the main amp is set to 3dB, not 5. 5dB makes it sound bad and may permanently damage your speaker.
Just some ideas.

I did not know this, I have been having this problem also. I exclusively use earbuds with my phone, so I hope that the speaker wouldn't be damaged.

ringtones and notifications dont sound.

My phone is stock with just root, but the issue is ringtones or notification sound cant be heard on the phone. I can talk and text regularly. Its just ringtines and notification sounds i cant hear. Is there a fix? Phones did have Icbinb rom, then i odined back to a stock thinking it would fix. But no luck. Sounds still dont play. Thanks.

When you look in the settings, do you have different ringtones and notifications sounds listed as options, or do you only see 'silent'?

yes. in the ringtones and in the notifications, it has all the sounds there. just when i select the sound to preview it, no sound. The phone volume is up. so i know there should be sound. Also the vibrate works. so when a call comes in the phone cal still vibrate. thats how i know im getting a call. And I can use the phone as regular.

Airplane mode maybe? I don't know...sounds like your notification volume is all the way down in your sound / volume settings, but you probably already checked that.

Thanks for the insight peoples. I dont know what it it. Im just one of those, if aint complete it erks me, i guess ill have to deal with it. Or sell it. Pass it along im open to offers. Cosmetically perfect l. Has screen protector with extra and all the components. Phone is 4 months old.

Yeah, I don't like it when things are quirky, either. Have you tried doing a factory data reset?

I was watching a you tube video and the sound became choppy. I thought it was a bad video, so I went to another. I had no sound. Started checking things on my phone, and nothing. I rebooted, reflashed my rom, flashed back to stock, and nothing still... SOUNDS ARE GONE. Volume is turned all the way up. I am running beautiful sgs4g (GB 2.3.5). I flashed to the new official 2.3.6. I also did a factory restore, and wiped data/dalvik cache in the process of doing all this. Is there any fix for this?

Out of curiosity, do you hear sounds if you use headphones?

It might be the external speaker. I was listening to music cause I didn't have earbuds with me. Sound started to crackle and break up. I figured music player was malfunctioning. After some troubleshooting, called T-Mobile. Apparently it is a known hardware issue and covered by warranty. I don't have insurance on my phone, they replaced it for a $25 fee.

Why did they charge you $25? If it is a known hardware issue and covered under warranty, they should have just sent it in and had it fixed for free, or you should've contact samsung directly, and the repair would have been free.

I absolutely love my G2x, but Im having a few issues

My first issue with my G2x is that when I put my phone in my pocket somtimes and I ull it out to chck for any new text or anything. It has poweed off on its own and I have to power it back on. This usually happens like 3 or 4 times a day.
Second issue is that anytime I make or receive a phone call my phone automatically has the speakerphone on. This happen been happening since day one, rather it is rooted or not.
Third is not actually with the G2x, its more to do with Tmobile.. I have had three replacement phones since I bought my G2x and I asked Tmo CC if I could get a different phone since I have had so many problems with the G2x and have had three replacements within the last two months. And they told me the only other phone I could get was the Sidekick 4G... WTF!!!!!!!! If I wanted to downgrade I would just use my G2 or G1.
Has anyone else had either of these issues, if so how can I fix it? Cuz I refuse to get the Sidekick 4G and dont want to keep having to get relacement.

With TMO it seems like you must get a little lucky. It all depends on the representative you get. I have had better success with being nice and speaking with the next in command. TMO has far surpassed my expectations many times.

What os are you running? Stock? Is it rooted? Have you tried cm7?
I was lucky and got a phone with little to no issues. I do know some folks that had the black screen of death ran cm7 and it went away.

My current G2x is rooted running Weapons 3.0 with the ICS Theme and Droid Bionic Boot Animation. But the others were stock with the Clockmod Recovery flashed to them.

I still get the problems in stock too.I ran MIUI for a while, it didn't have those problems. I installed weapon to get wifi calling. I think CM7 based roms don't suffer from the issues.

I use to have the MyTouch 4g and I had to have it replace 3 times with in a 2 month period. T-Mobile allowed me to replace it with the G2X. So I would contact T-Mobile again and talk to a supervisor. It's better to talk with them and they can help you get a better phone. All they have to do is see how many times you replace the phone. They can look it up and then help you get a new better phone. If they don't threaten to go somewhere else, i'll bet they will help then.

Lol, yea well Im going to have to do that cuz it is getting very annoying to have to turn off the speaker everytime I make or receive a call. And the random powering off is even more annoying.

For the random powering off, have you tried different roms. I'm currently using the Bionix Reloaded rom with the dragon kernel specifically for this rom. I haven't had any real issues. My phone has rebooted twice first week but it was a data issue. Mr. Apocalypse is currently working on the issue and will have a new release out soon. I haven't had any more issues after the first week. Ive had the rom for about 3 weeks.
Also, I did noticed when I used SetCpu and overclocked my phone it heated up really quickly so I had to set it back to it regular clock speeds.

Select "stay awake" in your settings/applications/development. That should help with your screen not turning on when it sleeps also know as (SOD) screen of death. Download the free app "Stay Awake" from the market and you will never have a random reboot again. Its bad on battery life but its much better then missing calls,texts,or alarm clocks.

And its not the ROM your using its the hardware LG built the phone with. I have a LG smart TV that reboots after prolonged use too. I've tried every 3rd party ROM out there and still had random reboots. The best fix I found is my prior post and I run weapon 3.0 with faux kernel.

Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

go for latest eagles blood (his own version not the kang) with latest Trinity elp kernel. Not had one reset, shut down, or hardly any problem at all. I only use roms where I have zero issues, not sure why anyone would do any different.
Honestly with your problems though (as long as your wiping everything when you flash) seem like an actual problem with the phone for sure.

CM7/MIUI low microphone gain permanent fix/solution

Hi everyone,
Just wondering if anyone has found any solution to overcome the CM7/MIUI low microphone gain issue during voice calls?
The other party on the line barely can hear me during voice calls.
Have searched a lot and haven't found any fix except for the hit mute/unmute during call to temporary (only applies to that call) fix the problem.
Is there any other solution, like replacing system audio driver files from stock/other ROM to fix the low microphone gain issue permanently (well, at least till the next flashing)?
Never had any issue on stock Froyo or Gingerbread. However, not intent to return to stock due to this issue.
I'm on the July 15 baseband with Wind mobile in Canada. Currently using MIUI 2.3.2 with Faux123 048 kernel. Tried stock CM7, Trinity kernels, no go.
My wife has the same phone/system, however she is still on the June baseband. Same low Mic issue applies to hers as well.
Any input is greatly appreciated!

I would love for something as well, this issue seems to be out there for some others phones as well on CM7, i believe their intentions were to reduce background noise. Either way, if anyone steps in that'd be great. I have searched through build props, and system folders looking for anything that says "mic" I got nothing lol. If anyone has any thing they think I should search through I have time today so give me any ideas.

Couldn't agree more! I found as well that it has something to do with CM7's reduced microphone gain values to prevent voice distortion. Read about library file libaudio.so might as well "involved".
It is not that significant, however I'm using the phone frequently for voice calls and always mute/unmute is a little annoying.
I customized, fine tuned everything else to my needs and if this thing would finally get sorted as well i could lay back and fully enjoy my device (kidding, still would messing around with flashing around).

Exactly my thoughts, that's my only true complaint about CM7. People don't seem to realize it though I don't know if they are the type that always talk loud or what lol... but I definitely noticed and know its true cause I restored my 2.2 left my self a voicemail & recorded with voice record... and then went CM7 and left a voicemail and voice recording and it was crazy different playing through speakers and through earpiece. So I don't know what else to do....

yup, I tried GetRIL and tried all the different RILs (rebooting after installing each) and no difference. It's definitely something in the CM code. Somehow it doesnt react well with this phone's mic setup.
hope it gets fixed cause i'm never going back to stock.... soooo slow

Part of this problem is the ROM and part of it is the kernel. CyanogenMod had this really bad at one point and they fixed it a little with a kernel tweak and then improved it a little more with a change in some of the audio drivers. So, it is hard to get it right. I have not really ever had this problem and I have been running MIUI GB based with the Trinity Kernel by Morfic (if that helps anyone).

Ya all of what I presumed it seems to be a hit or miss but it isn't just the g2x, which made me believe that it really is an issue even though people don't have it. I don't talk loud on the phone but maybe I need to start lol... either way willing to deal with it... p.s. I had the issue on all miui roms all kernels no matter what I tried.
