The LG Optimus One Thread

Yes, I was using Franco's v19.4 BFS and shifted to GBS v18a BFS. But battery backup didn't improved. But then I moved to GBS v18a CFS and battery backup surprisingly improved drastically.

With WiFi and Data turned off, I loose 30% in around 9 hours with moderate usage. 40% - 45% in around 9 hours with lots of messaging and calls. When WiFi is turned on battery starts decreasing like 10% - 20% in 2-3 hours or so.

I'd suggest you to try a battery caliberation. After that you'll loose your battery like hell, but after 2-3 days it'll get fixed.

For you I'll do another research and post you more accurate data tomorrow.

1. I've just charged my battery to 100%, I'll leave it overnight and will post you how much battery it consumes.
2. Without charging it tomorrow morning I'll take my mobile to office and again report back how much battery it consumes with messaging and phone calls.
3. After returning home I'll charge (if needed) and use WiFi and will post tomorrow night how much battery it consumes.

awesome research... thx a lot for ur time n thought on dis research ... waiting fr more results ...

@krishnandu - Thanks for your impressive feedback. Waiting for more screenshots :)

@Sam - Is it possible for LG to give a new mobile - afaik, modding is warranty void. If the problem resulted because of modding, can they replace the entire handset ?

Thanks a lot..!! Didn't knew all of you'll like it.

Wait till today night to get more few screenshots. But that will be without WiFi and GPS. As I want to test how much max can I get by making my smartphone a dumbphone. ;)

you know we mod our mobile. do LG service centre guys know it too? NO. will they try to find cause of the brick? NO. they'll just try flashing a stock rom. if it fails & most likely it'll, then they should replace entire handset.

even if the mobile is sent to the head office of LG, i doubt they'll waste hours fiddling around the logs trying to find the reason for the brick.

I flashed GBS... performance was smooth, battery life was good.

But I faced one problem... I could not connect to Data network (Vodafone 2G)

It just wouldn't connect, and even if it did for a few minutes, no data got transferred...

So, had to go back to Franco kernel 19.4 and my phone jumped back on the data network...

Could you two please check if your data networks connect and you can browse the web using GBS kernel?

same happened with me, its with LG service now. they told me that they will change motherboard and give back in 5 days. will get back on Monday. Also i bricked it the same way you did, KDZ for downgrading base-band. so other users be carefull while downgrading base-band using KDZ

^^ it'll help even if you go for some other mobile than Optimus One. O1 getting old but still best budget (below 10k) droid.
