Unfortunately there's no such thing as perfect fone. All of them have bugs, faults and other annoying stuff, so you'll just have to go with a model that you actually need.
O1 is a good phone and doesn't have any major problems.
What I mean is that whether the phone gets spoiled quickly, And I know it's has no camera flash but no adobe flash .....Anyway that's for all help!!!
The lifetime of phone will be pretty good same like the z71 varients.

It's a good deal for such a price. I don't care that it doesn't have flashligh and adobe flash support. Wanna take pictures? Go and get a real camera form Nixon or Canon
Optimus One is a great phone and our devs made it even better. It flies like a SGS Galaxy

It´s really a great Android Phone in the mid-class. And with croms you can get a really good phone placed even in the segment of Desire in performance. However, it doesn´t have adobe and camera flash.
I think Qualcomm and Adobe have announced that Flash will be optimized for the MSM7x27, the processor included in our Optimus One, so maybe it will have Flash soon
Yep, it is a great budged phone with pro features.... also there are workarounds for adobe and camera flash....
1) for adobe flash: adobe said that it is working in a optimized version of flash for msm7227 chip (armv6 cpu) that our phone has.. but if you want flash desperately right now you have two browser that can handle it: Skyfire and Puffin (it uses cloud computing to view flash websites)
2) The camera flash: there are plenty pocket flash lights and if you search well you can find a flash light that has better leds than many phones, also there is a accesory that is called Universal camera Phlash
It doesn't have camera flash, but you can easily take pictures for cheating on exams . And someone else said it very well, there are good if not great developers , who have this kind of phone.
Thanks every one for the great advice and one last question....since i like to experiment my phones with a lot of apps and roms.....does this phone have many roms for me to try out with....and don't worry about that thanks

What about the dust getting under the screen problem? Has it been fixed by LG?
Do they just clean it and give you every time or is there any permanent fix for the problem?
you are asking owners of p500 so we will say it's worth And I agree with them
About the dust - cleaning is for free if you have warranty (definetly in EU), but i haven't heard if LG did anything with this issue in newest series
(sorry for my english)
So you mean to say that the problem still exists in the latest phones too?
Also you said that they will clean it. I want to know whether that problem gets fixed after visiting the service center once or should it be taken to the service center time and again to clean it?

Someone said they put somekind of cover underneath the screen at the service center, so the dust doesn't build up anymore. But I don't know for sure. It was posted in the thread about the dust.
I got my Titan today and the first thing I noticed was that the touch was a bit slow, nothing to really care about but coming from the iPhone I expected the same "tracking" but it ain't there. Anyone else feeling this?

You on 8107? Did you start out with a Fresh Install? Any apps that might cause this?
Probably Digitizer issue... If you got warranty with AT&T/UK/whoever replace it

Yes 8107, I booted the phone and I had a few updates available so I updated it completely (I don't know what firmware it was from beginning, but definitely Mango at least). I'm not sure what you mean with Fresh install, please elaborate.

Fresh Install as In... A Factory Reset.... Like its better to start out with a clean slate then to start using a phone that was already being used and had some caches/apps loaded onto it...
Its best to ruled out any software issues before blaming Hardware (replacement)
And the digitizer is definitely not faulty.

Basically if its lagging it would be software related... There's a delay from when you do something to when WP7 responses to it... I would suggest backing Up and doing a Factory Reset and see if it makes a difference.
Did you load up the phone with stuff? Supposedly there's an issue with AT&T models that lag when low in memory even if you don't have that model it could be related

It was brand new, never used before so it should have been from scratch already (I had to go through the setup thing and so on)

if it's an ATT model, I won't be surprised. Plenty of issues heard in the past with earlier batches too.
Make sure your thumb is not touching the sides as the screen comes so close to the sides that i was touching it and not knowing it, which made it appear to lag or not press numbers to unlock and such. The easy fix for it was to get a hard rubber case which raised my thumbs up so they wouldn't brush the screen edges when typing.

I press the screen straight on with my fingers. Anyway, I might just be overreacting here but it definately feels like the touch is a liiiiiittle after, delayed or whatever you wanna call it.

Looking at your video it seems perfectly normal to me, None of my WP7 devices have ever been any better than your Titan, (2xHD7 and a Titan) Maybe it's just a case of getting over your last phone and adapting to the way Windows Phone works, Took me ages after win Mo 6.5
Hi ArtieQ,
I have the same feeling as you : the scroll doesn't follow immediatly the finger, compared to my Omnia 7 or my iPhone. I hope HTC will fix this with an update, but I'm dreaming...

I'm glad I wasn't the only one, because yesterday I was about to send in my Titan for warranty repair but later changed my mind. I really hope this is software related, but I think not.
I was also glad when I saw your post because nobody except you has noticed it. But if you look at any video of the titan, you'll see the problem is always here...

I found this thread as well: http://forums.wpcentral.com/phone-wars/184480.htm
I have both an Omnia 7 and a Titan and one thing i noticed on the Titan is that if I don't hold the phone with one hand and use the other for touch the screen lags and failes to register the finger at times. On the Omnia 7 I don't have this problem. The Titan might be worse either way but it's a huge difference when not holding the phone on my Titan atleast
It's easy to reproduce in some games... I get missed swipes (fruit ninja) or birds that fly when I am still trying to get the perfect angle (angry birds).
I was hoping for a firmware to fix this but didn't know if anyone else have a problem so havent bothered reporting it to HTC. I guess if we don't the wont know it's a problem?

Its got nothing to do with the OS if someone is wondering that! this is an HTC thing, evry phone from HTC have this, its just thay are not as responsiv as a Samsung phone or an IPhone, just look at HTC phone with Android its the same slow respons. if im not worng, this is an Screen issue, i mean an HTC issue HTC use on there phones.
My phone has been over heating. A LOT. Even with basic use. No gaming or anything. Anyone experience this? I called tech and they were no help. Told me to run in safe mode and remove my SD card..... Ya that won't work for me.
Thinking about full wipe but I dread resetting up everything.

I haven't had any issues like that. Only over heading I experienced were while using car navigation while wireless charging. You can try shopping cache plus restart to see if something is stuck, or if you have a new installation freeze that and see if things get better.
Another thing to look at is detailed battery use, see if there is any surprises. Many times the app that causes heating will also cause faster battery drain. If you can't find the app then full wipe may be needed.
Edit: one other question, did you change case recently? some cases don't transfer heat as well.
I did. A lot. Got to the point that I could take one picture and the camera would shut off because it was over heating. Hard reset didn't fix anything. I also had wireless problems (wifi would never stay off, airplane mode didn't work), and battery life was pretty poor (coming from Note 2). Replacement phone seems much better on all counts.
Thanks for the info guys. No case on the phone. Still working on rooting and playing with Xposed.... Maybe something there will help.... Or just have Verizon send a new one. I really do love this phone... So hopefully I can resolve this.... Maybe lollipop will help... If we ever get it....

I found that using settings reset is just below factory reset cleaned up my issues. It retains your programs and data.

Update
So had Verizon send me a new phone..... Have had it a day and a half and have already seen signs of over heating...... Granted it's close to 100 outside..... But I've been in the car with AC using GPS and it was getting really warm. I've had SEVERAL other phones with the same or more heavy usage with no over heating issues......
Not sure what to do. If it keeps up I'm going to have to consider a new phone....
Anyone know of any risks using the phone when it's over heating??? It's not going to explode or catch fire is it???

Same here. I can use the camera on this one but this is annoying. Might sell and go back to my trusty Note 2 that still hasn't sold anyway.
Anybody find any workarounds (besides the tin-foil inside the case thing)? I get camera shut-down after just playing around with the various modes without even recording anything. Thinking about getting an ice-pack to mount on the phone when I want to record videos......

I was having the overheat issue when I used the camera, so i downloaded the google camera app and it seems to work better.
My wife and I got refurbished phones from VZW, her's crashes to home screen now (Camera) and mine works for a few minutes longer than the old one.
Right now I am looking into getting a new phone, this one is getting annoying, want something I can get current Android version on and not a year old unpatched (Stagefright) leak that is not even Marshmallow.

Several things can cause a rise in temperature. Multiple apps running, using browser with multiple tabs open or high data usage. Also games can cause heating. It's probably normal but keep an eye on it for a bit.

Yes absolutely.
It is on all my devices whether I'm in a browser or not, my note 4 my tab s.... it's like these swirls embedded in the screen

Damn it is their anyway I can reduce it
As the title says: Is there a way to force games into a 18:5 ratio? Most games don't work properly yet and have visual issues or are simply unplayable. I added 2 less extreme example.
PS: I'm talking about something like Samsungs app scaling settings. This phone is missing this option which is one of the biggest problems right now. Apps are obviously not always optimized for 21:9 yet so this is a neccesity. I hope Sony reacts to it as fast as possible.
Got a typo in the title. Can some moderator change this? That's a thing xda-developers needs to improve.
