LG Optimus L9 - Short Review

[quagmire]

source: androidOS.

LG is doing exactly the opposite of what i was expecting. looks like someone smacked a bottle of wine on their CEO's head

^

-----------------
Can someone recommend a camera app for L9 which would enhance performance..
Also video performance looks really bad at night with sufficient lighting.. Any app that can give ISO control in video recorder..?

LG L9 owners may start counting days now but most likely it'll take a month before it hits the indian territory.

European LG Optimus L9 gets the Jelly Bean treatment - GSMArena.com news

Well, we got V10G within a month of international release and atm P765 in India is the only P765 worldwide to have V10G(in all apac countries), so given the track record I am expecting JB by april at worst. At best by march last week, not that I care much, ICS is perfectly stable with the L9.

Interesting thing, L9 JB comes with a feature called Q Slide, its the same multitasking feature that comes with the flagship Optimus G: *www.nodch.de/jelly-bean-update-fur-das-lg-l9-wird-ausgerollt/3708/

And that brings this on par with grand, now one less reason to get the grand.

Get an earphone, no earphone supplied with any mobile, not even xperia z or iphone is audiophile grade, the speaker isn't loud enough I agree but its better that its not loud enough than hearing distorted noise coming from the small speakers, I have excellent hearing, so no issues for me hearing the ringtone or the notification tone.

I am yet to recieve my phone...Did anyone manage to successfully root their L9 ? I really want to know if rooting will solve the 'moving apps to sd card' problem or not ?

 

[furious_gamer]

^^ Yes rooting will resolve the issue. And so many managed to root successfully.

 

[rakeshmarar]

^^ Thnx for the prompt reply. I searched the xda forums but its cluttered with so many methods and workarounds so it was pretty confusing for a noob like me Do u have any link for a stable root process? (I really dont wanna brick my phone )
