AnonD-13788, 28 Mar 2013i'm not really aware what v10a or v is. All i know is ics, ... moreits was both photo and video that had troucble focussing.
and yet the firmware is upgradable trough OTS as long as your not rooted.
the entire V10x serie is android 4.03 jelly bean
will be v20x.
the phone was released with v10a then v10b v10c and so on where updates and bugfixes and v10h is the most recent.
and im saying the issue if fixed if you udpate your phone to v10h :)
and lg's profits are fine the only issue is the loads of misinformation thats spread on the web about there phones most likely out of spite because people payed much more for there samsungs ,sony's and htc's.

it looks like us in the UK are still waiting. And then when LG rolls out the update, we then have to wait for the carriers to impliment the updates as well.

AnonD-13788, 28 Mar 2013well if that's so then cool. It seems a little odd to me th... morethe focus issues are solved for almost 5 months now but the lazy buggers that make reviews are to lazy to add them or are such big apple/samsung /htc fanboys they just ignore the fact lg brought the better deal here.
as long as you update to v10h there is noting wrong with the camera.
and soon with any JB versionit should also be fixed.

well if that's so then cool. It seems a little odd to me though that i could get a phone with a non removable battery on a 24 contract. But i think longterm for things to last and be a good buy, and so the only reason i may get the optimus4x is as my contract is ending real soon, and i've found the op4x at a real low price with all the internet data i need as well. If only they released it with the mended autofocus issues, then it would likely be very popular.

AnonD-13788, 27 Mar 2013well lithium batteries are not supposed to ever run out, un... morebatterys will run out but normaly not in the normal use time of a product which is abour 2 years.
batterys have about 800 to 1000 charges before they start to degrade which you normaly dont reach in 2 years but eventualy they will wear down.
but with batterys costing so little on the web worrying about them is a non isues if you can buy a replacement for your phone like we can :)

I got my phone like 5 days ago it is what I expected since I made a lot of research about it. My question. Is the JB out? cause I see a lot of guys saying they have it so I checked for updates, phone says I have the latest. I live in Europe but got my 4x from Amazon.
Still not sure about rooting the phone. The more I read about it, the more I feel lost. Also, I installed some launcher that totally changed my interface and icons also added some apps I don't want so I removed it. Are those launchers safe or they drain a lot of battery?

AnonD-13788, 27 Mar 2013ok, i need to be specific here. At battery university (dot ... morewel if in the long term (say 9 months the battery life decreases ill just buy new ones they cost less then 6 euro each so cant care about that as battery tech slowly goes forewards also.
theres 2450 mah at the same size now so replacing the battery becomes a fact sooner or later anyway :)
as for calibrating i dont know if it is still needed but ive always fully charged and drained the first few times and it always worked great for me so why change something if it works needed or not :)

pino, 27 Mar 2013yeah readouts are shite hence i only accept full charge sta... moreok, i need to be specific here. At battery university (dot com) that say overcharging will increase the battery performance, but it will ultimately damage how long the battery lasts longterm. So its good in the shorterm for performance, but not for the longlasting of the battery over years. So for me i prefer to have a spare battery and slightly undercharge them (and generally with the phone off so its a better reading).
However some batteries will tell you to charge and discharge a brand new battery about 3 times so to get the best performance etc, and so i have done this pastly as it apparantly recalibrates the battery. If you havent heard of calibrating lithium polymer batteries you may be interested to search it up. I am not sure if this is necessary or not.

AnonD-13788, 27 Mar 2013i think a lot of folks dont look after their battery well. ... moreyeah readouts are shite hence i only accept full charge statistics as facts .
anything less then a full charge is useless information.
my battery stays on 100% for about 30 min then it starts to drop slowly untill 70% at which it drops like a rocket to 22% and stays @ 22% for quite a while and my end time with the battery is the same average every time.
people should always post averaged over the entire battery life not just a section of it.
and personaly im not sure about the overcharging thing as im not sure that the attery is actualy being charged fully .
it goes to 100% way to fast and if i take it off then it lasts me 30 to 45 minutes less then when i leave it on another 45 minutes so i guess the battery indicates that its full to early.
phone off for charging is interesting and i will do this a few times after im done with my browser power consumption tests. (chrome is in the lead btw it seems really fast page loading on higher mhz and then drop down to 5th coreis more power efficient then slower page loading at lower mhz)

Anonymous, 27 Mar 2013Battery life is fine for me. Can't understand all those sta... morei think a lot of folks dont look after their battery well. At the battery university (online) it explains how lithium batteries should not be overcharged, made too hot, and knocked as all will damage the performance of the battery loads. Also i find on my sgs i9000 that if i charge it when the phone is on, then the % reading is usually wrong, and can go down from 95% to 85% very quickly. This happened recently, and so i recharged it with the phone off after. That time it when showed on the indicator that it wasn't almost charged it was an accurate reading. So when it got to almost charged, i then turned the phone on...and it then kept an accurate reading. I have read of this also, maybe from batt' univer' about being a more accurate reading when phones are off for charging.

I didnt like the previuos asphalts. Generally i buy the games from playstore at times like easter, bank holidays, christmas....and just keep checking so that i get them for 70p on sale. I got nova 3, mc4 and asphalt 7 for real cheap. I also have bought from gameloft, but they dont update their games from their site, and often i cant find my downloads there to redownload/update.

and honestly you cannot compare the 2x speed rom with the 4x hd rom.
this one is fine so even if the 2x rom is crap it has noting to do with the 4x hd.
but honestly what are the problems your having other then battery as iva explained about everything to improve that hehe.
im happy to help find solutions for possible other issues but people cant complain about the battery as its fine.
