If you notice your battery is draining fast, it is recommended that you calibrate it atleast once after you update

Bro, if your set is local set and underwarranty, they will update for your FREE. If your set is ap, you might as well do it yourself, right?

P/S: i have walk into LG service center before and requested them to update and they do it for FREE

This is how my homescreen look like for a moment. i might change later

Ok, just to know how to put apps or games files in external SD, so far mostly are stored in internal SD. Is there any way to put in External SD?
*
Download app call zdbox, there will be option to show you what apps can be moved to external and what apps must remain in phone

Normally you can use app call 'app 2 sd' but i recommend zdbox since it comes with other tools which you will find handly like measure data, cleaning, move app 2 sd, etc. Just try it out. if you don't like it, you can always use other apps which perform the samething

Are you using stock rom? Is root access needed?


Added on December 1, 2011, 11:15 amMy phone Uptime is 5d 22h 15min.
After change from

The battery still left 73% after 15h 27min ago I charged my phone.

I don't want to reboot my phone, are there any way to make my phone signal on?

I enable/disable 2G networks, change Network Mode from GSM / WCDMA / Auto, Enable Data still not working...

I am still using GB stock rom.
*
Answer to question 1 :I've rooted my phone.

Q2. If you have problem cannot get your phone's signal back, try this

1.Switch on Airplane mode. Wait for a while then switch off airplane mode. Then go to mobile network, select your network type selection as both 3G/2G and network operator as automatically

P/S : if you do use data alot, leave it always on 3G, but it will drain your battery. If you don;t just select 2G only then your battery will last. Currently network signal keep switching off and cannot recover is one of the known issue. Some manage to flash newbaseband to fix it, so just keep one type either 3G only or 2G only to prevent it from keep switching and cause your signal to drop (a reboot recover it)

oic. mine not rooted.
Which rom do you use?

I won't use 3G quite frequent.
I always set to 2G and GSM only.
If choose Auto but not GSM only will have this network signal keep switching off and cannot recover or the signal logo show is connected by actually is not connected to any network.
Beside this 2G really can save a lot of battery...but if choose 2G only then the smartphone will become a dump phone and not smart anymore sad.gif

I'm now on MIUI ICS 2.11.26. Playing around the rom for few days already. Still buggy but usable. Its more responsive and battery friendly.

Using 2G / GSM only help on battery but still can use with 2G data depends on which telco rolleyes.gif In my case, i got 2 phone, 1 on maxis and the other one on umobile. I put umobile on the 2X with 2G only but enable data a are still able to receive whatsapps, gmail, etc.

Those apps don't need high speed, just data and its good enough for me. Maxis one is my backup since umobile is good when you're in area where signal for umobile is strong, but if you're in place where no umobile service, it will roam to celcom. So when im in those area and no signal, the umobile will forward call to the maxis whistling.gif

Wao...ICS...is it stable?


Added on December 1, 2011, 11:55 amJust turn on 3G Data for about 40min the battery drain from 73% to 54%...sad.gif

Depends on your 'term' of stable

1. Signal - there is a bug where every time you reboot your phone, you need to set automatically search to get back network. Other than that its more stable compare to stock when you're already connected. I find have less issue of line drop in here compared to stock

2. Continues usage without boot for 3 days sometime start of have 'FC' case, after reboot, its ok

3. No haptic key - still bug, got solution but it comes back after reboot

4. Operation wise, no problem smooth, tethering stock is broken, use app from market for wireless tether works

5. Battery & smoothness brows.gif yup its there rclxms.gif

6. Others havent test yet (like BT,HDMI)

7. Video, yup 720p is accelerated, browser and few other already h/w accelerated, not complete but what to expect its still Work-In-Progress porting

8. Call quality is good, im on baseband 725 v20L and its clearer then prior baseband

9. GPS works great, 1-2 sec locking (stock around 5 sec) - must fix with fasterfix for ntp + gpsfix for locking (accuracy around 30m, still trying to get it better, on ZTE blade i get 5m accuracy and 1 sec lock, check out the spec of zte blade, no where near 2x but amazing response and accuracy for GPS)

Hmm, now waiting for another release from them, otherwise i may flash nightly to use 1st since don't have the network bug where everytime reboot need to set network to automatically search

MIUI ICS comes with h/w acceleration??? as in full h/w acceleration on the Tegra 2?
*
Bro,

Its not completed, like i say, its Work-In-Progress, not complete, some only but atleast things such as browser got h/w acceleration, other is still W-I-P, this version just release like not long and still in beta. So dont put too high hope. ( If you notice, nvidia is not releasing driver for their tegra 2 right?, so their work is based on whatever is release out now.

I wish they have complete drivers release from nvidia, then i won;t be just looking at 720, i will be looking @ 1080p drool.gif

Below is the changelog from their website

2.11.26 Change Log

Network Modifications:

Corrected Signal Strength Readings in Status
Improved network power consumption

Framework Modifications:

Implemented ICS sensor management
Improved power consumption whilst sleeping
Correctly implemented debugging settings via ADB
Fixed issues with Tethering cutting out mid way through large transfers
HW Acceleration Included (Browser, Video, Games etc)
Android Market (Scroll via images leading to FC fixed)
Improvement in Galnet Video Player playback

UI Improvements

Implemented Extended Settings
Implemented 4 Way Reboot
Added ICS lockscreen to default theme
Added ICS transaction effects
Improved Sharpness and Display quality on I9000 and I9100 builds
Added ICS Keyboard with Vibration Settings

OTHER INFORMATION

The battery calibration will kick in straight away once flashing this rom, therefore you will find that the battery drains quicker than before. Please allow it to drain to around 5% before recharging fully back to 100% for the perfect calibration.
Updater may FC on first boot, don’t worry about it, as it will work correctly once this occurs.
Phone call recording (This is something that we won’t support due to legal issues within the UK, please don’t expect it).

Some apps can be move from phone to sd, this apps allow you to see which are ok to be moved, if you forcefully moved them into sd, you can see shortcut but cant execute the app.

tried 1.9.5 and all other version available out there.
it just doesnt work.

the superuser is stuck in my /system.
the apps recognize my phone as rooted but i dont have root access.

i rooted it when it was v10b then upgrade to v10d root is gone and superuser stays.
tried factory reset, superuser still there.

damn it.

oh thanks for replying.

Bro, in your phone do you have superuser installed? if yes, can you try uninstall it, then download busybox again? then only try superoneclick with debug mode on

I face this problem before because i was using MIUI with custom busybox but the superuser screw up and so with the busy box (i tried wipe the rom, and it came back and screw up again when i update the busybox)

P/S: worst case of scenario, wipe rom whistling.gif

Oh ya, superoneclick cannot work if no access to adb biggrin.gif

sad that NVidia is not offering the codes and the drivers out...grumble.gif

Yeah bro, i know, which is why we need LG to get their side to do up ICS with h/w acceleration (this means they need to work with nvidia guys to get the drivers as Nvidia guys work only with manufacturer who they provide their chips to, they will need to provide drivers which they custom for their chipset to makers, and they will not provide to others. Developers has been asking since early release but their request has been ignored, reason? its their intelectual property & they only provide drivers to the maker who they sell their chip to...in this case LG right?

Samsung's maker so far has been providing good stuff as they have good team and they manage to get whatever they need from nvidia, as result you can see their phone/table works quite well even for stock (we are not talking about those been custom / tweak yet).

Well the hope is ICS is properly done up with h/w accelerator, then no problem already bcos the modder will take over and tune it up properly. all they need is access to ics with h/w driver enable then settled biggrin.gif

can you try to install busybox then run to busybox with debug mode and try again with superoneclick? hopefully busybox enable command line so the superoneclick can install adb and re-root it again

Guys, I've updated to GB V20E version. I've installed CWM Recovery too, because I needed it to root my phone. After that I've decided to check for update again via LG Mobile Updater, and it said there was a newer update (I guess it was for updating to V20L, I'm not sure sweat.gif ). But while updating it said "software update is not supported for this model". After some searching in xda I found this post:
So what should I do now?

I'm thinking of flashing the rom from this link by using CWM, instead of using LG updater, because to use LG updater I need to flash the phone via Smartflash, which will wipe all my data off the phone. CWM won't do that right? rclxub.gif
*
If you flash with that, try not to wipe data,cache or dalvik's cache, then your data wont be lost, just setting. Warning, you may have fc if you install like that, so recommended if you face problem, reset those mention earlier

Probably you want to try This out before CWM

It's just a slight bleed and nothing serious right? It won't worsen or anything right? Any users here experienced before? Or maybe sent for warranty claim due to this before?
*
Set your phone wallpaper to black and see if you notice any bleeding, if yes, you can walk-into LG center can show them (make sure you're under warranty, feedback from forummers are some have this issue - normally earlier batch and the sent in, as for local batch haven't hear anything or maybe they just sent in without feedback)

i'm also using topogigi, sucks battery like hell but after 2 battery calibration it's ok already, can last for at least a day of proper usage, if on 2g only, can last 1.5 days.  FYI i'm using KOI livewallpaper, it' one of the apps that'll suck your battery

Hmm, 1.5 day with live wallpaper is quite good nod.gif . Is the screen one of the item on your top battery usage? or the live wallpaper?

Bro, I'm not sure how is your contact is being used (from sim / google contact), as for me, i've uploaded all my contact to google (so when i add one new contact, i can access it from any android device i have, just add 1 dummy contact and see if you contact is updated - see the contact under gmail from website)

SMS - download any sms backup app from market, this will export all your sms into xml format and later after you wipe your rom, install back the same app and restore the file (its saved with name which derived from date your do your backup)

Apps - use titanium, this settle everything from app,data or both biggrin.gif

P/S: which MIUI are your using? i'm using the one from galnet biggrin.gif so i've tested the items mention above, not sure it helps you or not
