How to set up a new G2x.
1. If it needs 2.3.3 do that first.
2. Hard reset the phone...turn phone off, hold volume down and power, for about 10 seconds until the little unpacking icon bubbles up.
3. Start phone up, and what the heck, go into privacy menu and do a complete restore, from there. (Its twice the fun, done via two different start signals, but it won't hurt, the phone is already blank, and it adds 10 minutes max.
4. Download as the first thing the My Device T-mobile app, and install it. Someone did some digging and found that the older version was problematic...and what the heck, it a no harm no foul item even if the guy is wrong and its just placebo. He was doing some sort of checking to see what was causing the faults and it was coming from the OLD my device program.
5. Turn off the phone via the menu.
6. Turn on the phone.
7. Turn off the phone.
8. Do a hard restart (not a hard restore, just restart) With phone off, hold power and volume up, until it comes on, and then blanks, and the white LG screen comes up. You should see it cycle, it may come on like normal, but keep holding until it cycles.
9. Unless you want random reboots or what not....DO NOT INSTALL ANY MEMORY MANAGERS OR TASK KILLERS, or BATTERY SAVERS. If you leave your house...turn off your WIFI. If you are not using the GPS, turn it off. If you are not using data, set the data mode to 2G only or turn it off. Beyond screen brightness those are all the major juice users.
Anything that you give control to shut down "wasteful" processes, is giving that utility to carve out dependent processes, which when your phone finds missing can cause all sorts of errors like rebooting.
Many of the people complaining about reboots (not all) slapped on a copy of advanced task killer, and are dumbfounded when there system becomes unstable.
Your G2x should be OK.....so to speak...now.
I was using an app on Sunday, when the app froze completely and the screen of the s3 went black. The only thing I could see was the status bar up top, but even that was unresponsive. So I pulled the battery and turned it back on, and it was acting extremely slow so I got impatient and started trying to get into settings, when it went unresponsive again.
This time I held down the power button to see if I could get it to respond and the lock screen came up, without my wallpaper and instead of Verizon Wireless at the top, it said "No Service". After a couple of seconds my wallpaper showed up and then it said Verizon Wireless. After I get through the lock screen, I would go through the same whole routine - e.g. try and get into settings, freeze, hold power, have it come back up, etc. So I battery pulled again.
Finally, I got it to boot OK, by just letting it be for 10 minutes and completely ignoring it.
However, today my battery drain was pretty fast, it was on for 12 hours and was down to 40% after only 30 minutes of screen time. The culprit was "Android System" at 61%, i've never seen this that high before. Because of the high "Android System" power usage, I thought it might be good to power it down. Upon boot up, I assumed I'd be able to use it immediately, so I started going into Settings, and yet again it went unresponsive.
Are the two issues unrelated? What should I do?
As a warning, I'm extremely new to anything smarter than a Nokia brick, so be patient - Thanks!
As inconvenient as it is, I would recommend a full system wipe and go back to out of the box. That seems to fix everything and unfortunately it is rather difficult to diagnose issues on phones, especially unrooted.
In order to do a wipe you can do one of two things, goto settings then backup and reset, then hit factory data reset.
-OR-
Turn off the phone. When you start it again hold volume-up, power, and home to get into recovery. Then do the factory reset.
Ok, I thought that's what my option was. Thanks dwibbles.
Hi,
I saw a specific app in my battery list Settings->Battery which takes 7% of the battery.
I enter manually and press the force close button, but the app still appear on the list, even after a long time I can still see that she takes 7% of my battery.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

Hi. Yesterday I left my tablet in the kitchen - roughly 50% battery, and when I went to pick up in the evening - I had not expected it to be empty, but things happen. So, I put it on the charger and rather than seeing the "charging" icon, I got a snow/grey screen.
After waiting 15 minutes for any change I googled, found, and tried holding the poweroff button for 30 seconds - screen flashed off/on but no change in the "snow". Then tried holding off+left side of volume key in and saw the android icon (1 sec), but then got half snow, half android - and what looked like "Do not ... something". Again, after waitiong a bit, repeated steps and now (and for over 15 hours) all I see is:
Upper left corner, in red
ODIN MODE
Directly under this in white text
PRODUCT NAME: GT-N8010
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: No
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
And the middle is just the Android ICON, with message:
"Downloading..."
"Do not turn off target!!"
I suspect the batter ran down - so it "turned off" and is stuck somewhere. How do I get it to restart?
Many thanks for any suggestions!

I seem to have the same condition as described here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2771124 - except I was not trying to flash my system. This all happened automatically.
I have also tried the hard-reset (power + right-volume) - but that just gives the snow, or zebra-snow (half the previous screen, half snow).
Saddened me.
12 hours later: edit added...
I guess this is old news to all of you - but many links to pit files - whatever they may be are no longer active - and I still have no clue what that would add to help me clear my issue.
Suggestions?
Someone need some sugar? Or do you prefer a beer?
Hi guys,
this morning i have a strange issue on my oneplus 7. The screen turned off, then it won't turn on again, the only thing on the screen was a little "pixel" flashing at the top center of the screen. I keept the power button pressed to turn off the phone, and after a bunch of seconds the screen turned back on (the phone was still on).
After that, i frequently see a flashing window that looks like a crash notification for some app, but it is so fast that i can not read what is related on... This window keeps popping out every few minutes (or seconds) but the phone seems working as alwatys. I've tried rebooting with no luck. There's no way to see some kind of log to check what app is crashing? The phone is consuming a lot of battery now (30% in the last 2h) and looks like Google Play Services has used almost 25% of battery.
