LG PC Suite, use USB connct pc transfer photo, mp3, movie.
after flash CM10.1, still can use those LG program?

To be frank, i never used any software to transfer files between pc...Just directly connect in MTP mode

Yeah same here. I always directly use MTP mode to transfer data and media file

Media SYNC? ha, never use this choice...

Finally I've bought the 4X today
If possible., may need sifu, especially Bro waja show how to flash to custom kernel. TIA

Go to CM10.1

Ha..ha..really 'lucky ' I am, my new phone having screen defect after using less than 5 min. Luckily able to exchange a new set just now, hope it won't reappear in this phone.

Hope i can help too...but raya now, at hometown

Sure bro, happy Raya and enjoy your festive mood first.

Btw, need a quick feedback.
Should I update my phone to official JB first before flashing custom kernel? My phone still very 'virgin's now, not even the sim card

im running on official JB rom

i only rooted it but not flashing anything to it

So, you don't use custom kernel, especially the iodak version?
Thought if on stock kernel and rom, the phone battery tend to drain & heat fast?
What's your purpose of rooting it? Remove bloatware? If yes, mind to share which built in app safe to be removed?

There is no need for that...you can flash the zip file directly without going back to 4.1.2....it will work

On stock or on custom kernel, the heating problem is still there..
Its just that on stock, thermal protection limit have been increased to gives more space for performance....

You can visit General Discussiom section in XDA to find which apps can be safely removed..

If youre lazy to do that, just flash magic rom which is stock based with lots of bloatware removed and themed perfectly...

Huh...thought iodak kernel able to reduce heat thus the stability and smoothness? Anyway, think the heat only obvious when heavy gaming, right? Normal apps and web browsing should be fine, right?
Well, will try upgrade to JB these fee days then only try the phone.
btw, any recommended casing and screen protector? Still not getting any for my phone yet (also why I don't use it yet). I find it very hard to get this model accessories in normal phone shop, someone even quote me a nillkin case for >rm100

Stability and smoothness is not a problem...the problem now is our processor generate much more heat and even faster rate, in stock kernel, lg developers coded a safety feature called thermal protection limit...when our cpu & battery hits a certain limit, the kernel will lower down the working cpu frequency to reduce thermal heat being produced to protect the battery and motherboard itself...This protection gives us problem where there will be performance drop once cpu freq being limited...

Nvidia default temp limit is 80°c, our stock kernel is 65°c if im not mistaken...in custom kernel, they disabled/tweak this features to avoid the cpu being reduced in freq...

Its not that custom kernel reduced the heat generated...even if ure using custom kernel, when do browsing around 20min, cpu temp able to hit 55 degrees, nothing to worry as nvidia promised us that tegra 3 can withstand up to 85 degrees...

About the casing and sp, i bought mine from lelong...rm15 for both...now no stock already

awesome then....

Correction, it is on custom

IC, so this sound like the nvidia issue, no wonder not much manufacturer using its chipset now. Wonder with casing put on will it help to feel less of the heat? Personally I'm not so prefer any casing since it's adding more weight and also spoil the nice look of our phone, if possible would like to just put on a bumper case to protect the 4 edges of the phone only, but not sure is such casing available for this model.
Btw, I've read through some Q&A section in xda forum and got some idea about basic rooting, unlock bootloader etc. Now let say I just want a custom iodak kernel on stock JB rom, is it what I need to do now as per below sequence :
1) update to stock JB using LG tool
2) root the phone
3) unlock bootloader (necessary) ?
4l flash custom kernel

If youre on ICS, just update to JB through OTA or LG PC suite...no need flash manually...once youre on JB...follow your number 2 sequence, unlocking bootloader is a must if you wanna go for custom rom and kernel...

P/s: u which location in ipoh...? Im at manjoi
