A factory reset sorted it out for me, although in general, the loud speaker audio still ain't that hot. Guess LG had to cut back somewhere to keep it cost-effective.

My device is currently still on ICS , so im assuming the Volume Panel Style screen might be something added by Jelly Bean. For me , theres Settings>Sound>Volume , where you can adjust ringer, notification media volumes etc. Media volume there has been set to maximum, so i guess the problem...

Made a recent purchase of this phone through an online store. While trying to play mp3s, movie files or games, im noticing that the audio levels, even at maximum volume, through the loudspeaker are remarkably low.However, the inbuilt ringtones etc play at perfect volumes. I have looked through...

Question for the 17R SE users(or the sammie users scoping this thread) : What is the best Graphic Driver for the GT 650 right now?

Somehow shooters on console never appealed to me(I have tried a few, and find the entire experience a little off). Moreover, if you're not getting one from abroad, be prepared to pay 50% extra than what the first world pays for the consoles ( maybe more when they launched recently)

Not that huge a factor with me. Battery life mainly comes into play during power outages. Looking forward to the gamin performance, mainly. I have a history of making drastic upgrades/purchases to play the latest Max Payne game, so this fits a pattern

Thats more like what i was expecting. 4 hours, as mentioned on notebookcheck might've been the absolute best case scenario.No use wondering, anyhow. Already ordered it.

Nope, just a final check before actually buying the thing. After following this and the sammie thread for sometime, seemed like this was the model on which one could game with most ease. btw, is that battery life under heavy load?? Otherwise, something is seriously wrong. Is there no Optimus...

Shout out to all the (probably not many) 17R SE owners. What problems have you guys faced with the Laptop till now? And are they all solvable with software tweaks?

This is somewhat off-topic, but looking at the volume these models (Samsung and DELL S.E) have sold(judging by the sample group of these forums), does no one else find it odd that HP/Asus/Lenovo are taking their sweet time in releasing in India good Ivy Bridge/GPU combos. I think most will be...

Boy do I have a bunch of questions for you. Please game for hours on hours and let me know if there is any kind of throttling. Been meaning to get this one for a long time, but not before hearing user reviews.

Question for the owners of the i7 version : How prominent is the throttling issue?(i.e. how much continuous gaming can be put in before it kicks in, under no AC, no cooling pad scenario) Any ways of countering it(apart from getting a cooling pad)? Are we looking at an update from nvidia or...

^ You could call it deduction. I wasn't home when it happened , but there was a huge thunderstorm. It would be a huge coincidence if a seemingly fine laptop suffered a failure coinciding with the thunderstorm but due to completely unrelated cause. Possible, yes, probable, no. Also, I have heard...

I have recently had the misfortune of losing a laptop through lightning damage. I still cant be sure if the damage came through the mains(my plug socket is still working fine) , or through the modem(Ethernet connection). The modem itself doesn't seem to be fried though. Can anyone suggest...

^ I was talking about the one year of accidental coverage, which for me is a big deal. I am looking for a new Laptop cause my old one got fried by lightning :(
