Damn. Even with the ICS upgrade? This is crazy because I had an Atrix 2 for a while and with 1gb of ram you'd expect it to be okay. But this is that and 1.5ghz dual core.
But for $65 is it worth it? I mean in my city, there's lots of cheap and good phones. But this is the cheapest in its power range.
Should I just shell out a couple more bucks for a better phone?

the battery issues have been dealt with using wind kernel on a v20f ics rom or cm 10.1.2 with wind wernel
I have never been able to root this phone, so that kind of stinks. My biggest issue is the battery life is horrible!!!! Also stinks that we'll never see JB on here without rooting!!!

Rooting this phone is easy...what stock ROM are you on? As far as battery life I can go all day without needing to charge. My wife can't say that with her iPhone and people at work who have galaxy s3 and s4 are always charging. Haven't had complaints about battery life since I moved from GB a year ago.

I found the overheating on the phone pretty bad but since I got cyanogenmod the phone isn't overheating anymore. Anyway I suggest getting it as the phone is pretty good other then a few problems
Sent from my LG-P930 using xda app-developers app
I think it depends phone to phone but on a super light usage day I might get 12-14 hrs. On my normal usage like 5-6hrs even with wind kernel and cm10.1. The major plus of the phone is that 2years later it still has one of the highest ppi's available.

I should mention that The battery is fine on standby. Play some games and forget about it! My software version is V20-c. Its been a while since I tried to root her, but none of the methods worked for me. I've rooted my Kindle Fire and my previous Android phone, so I have rooted in the past. The overheating issue is bad also, but overall, this has been a good phone! The display is beautiful and the processor is quite fast. I don't regret buying this, but wanted to be honest in my overview...

To root v20c use this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460
This works 100% as long as it is installed to c:/ and don't run as administrator.
However if you want to install cwm to install custom ROMs and tweaks (recommended) use this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044645
This will allow you to install a variety of ROMs that are based on stock that will offset better battery life including game playing. At the very least install wind kernel in addition to better battery life it removes security from the boot loader so you can uninstall bloatware without bricking ie. Google Play movies.
Sent from my LG-P930 using xda app-developers app
The battery drain is for me the biggest issue. But with wind kernel and other roms it is much better. It depends on what you want to do with the phone. When you play all the day, yeah then you will charge often. But other phones have same problem. I bought an extender battery. By the way the phone is better in my hands weight of course a little bit higher.

It is no problem to change the sensitivity of the screen. After flashing a new rom I change the worth in the system folder once and then the sensitivity is fast and smooth. For this you can use an app of course. But why installing an app when I can do this manually ?
What is the average screen on time around here? Thanks for all the great input!

Performance-wise, I went from a Galaxy S III to this phone, and the UI is decently smooth on the stock ROM. On CM it's pretty laggy unless you use Wind Kernel, which makes it a lot smoother. The screen is very sharp - I actually like its screen more than my S III.
However, I've had some bad issues with overheating on this phone. During normal use, it's not an issue, but I've had the phone shut off or reboot during GPS navigation, and when I felt the phone it was downright hot, especially on the back right where it says "8MP HD" below the camera. It got so hot that I couldn't touch it. Battery drain when under heavy load (games, GPS navigation, etc.) is also pretty bad. My 2 amp car USB charger can't keep up with it during GPS navigation, and the battery will still drain even though it's charging.
I've had the phone for a few months, and it is a decent phone overall, but I'd explore some alternatives.
I decided to go with an alternative. I got lucky and found a real good deal. I'm amazed myself. Thanks everyone for your input.

Battery life isn't worth writing home about... not the worst I've ever experienced, but not great.
It's annoying that when game audio's playing out the external speaker, you only hear one channel... (some games sound very strange because of that)
However, the thing I have a pet peeve over is that when it's connected to bluetooth, notification sounds stutter most of the time. (not sure how to describe it other than stutter).
I'm uncertain if that issue is isolated to my phone or if it's a general issue. I'm working on getting a demo phone to test if it's my phone or a general issue with Samsung vs Kenwood...
Battery life is amazing on a custom kernel. For some reason (yields I'm guessing) most cpus are horribly over volted. I get similar battery life as my razr maxx now. Sound Quality is meh from the external speaker but pretty good from headphones.

It's just what it's called. Would you prefer there be separate items? Cell standby, cell 2g, cell 3g, cell 4g, cell data, cell roaming, etc.
"Cell standby" is the amount of power the cell atennas are using period, regardless of what they're doing.
It says right on there "Battery used by cell radio", you don't have a separate item showing battery from using the antenna with a different name do you?
I am REALLY hoping tmo allows wifi calling on airplane mode soon lol.
I've had mine for a week, replaced a MyTouch 4G running JB. So far, generally good. My only concern is how badly Temple Run plays on it. Stutter and lag worse than any Android phone since G1.
I'm running stock, uprooted. Any suggestions short of running CM? Could my phone be defective? Temple Run is my de defto standard for phone performance and so far my GS3 is not good.

I believe my phone was at 15 hours with 50% battery remaining, that's damn good if you ask me. :|
Okay, I have been getting the sod on my gnex for a long time. Anytime I would launch an app after about 15 seconds into it my phone would freeze and go into sod. I flashed back to stock and sprint replaced my gnex so when I got it I kept it unrooted for a while to see if it was because I was rooted. Same thing happened while I was unrooted. I thought to myself let me use the stock battery to see if the problem might be the extended battery. Sure enough while on the stock battery the sod's stopped. Its been a day now. Has anyone else experienced this, heard of it or can it be possible? Thank you.

Sure. If the battery is unstable and cannot properly sustain its voltage. You say it's reproducible when opening apps. Generally this action will cause the kernel to temporarily increase the CPU frequency and voltage, if the battery cannot deliver, I imagine this can affect Android in multiple undesirable ways

Any rom can be great because the rom itself really has not much bearing on battery life at all. What's going to impact battery life is kernel, user setup and how you use your device.

I've noticed a lot of different things with the processor. After on for a little while randomly some of the CPUs will activate did not sleep, normally cpu0 stays on all the time but cpu1-3 turn off to save battery, and at the same time the minimum frequency would get stuck at 1.95... When you reboot everything would reset back to the minimum of 300 mhz and the CPUs would sleep as normal

Really glad I stayed on 4.3 after hearing a lot of these horror stories mentioned in several threads. I had no intention of taking the OTA or Odin anyways just because I read a couple weeks before on a site that kitkat 4.4.2 was messing with how it handles the external sdcard and apps.
There's mixed reports of good/bad battery life on 4.4.2 and if the new bootloader really makes a difference yet, all I can say to those that did jump the gun or didn't know any better is things will get better as devs iron out the bugs and create custom kernels/roms to help you guys out. Does it suck waiting for all this.. hell yes it does but we have all been there before and just know you are in the right place here at XDA because these devs and members are here to help us all out thru hard times.

Once fully charged it will last usually 2 hours if im on it off and on. Until it hits 30% then it will turn my radio off, and i will have no connection. So i restart my phone and it will come back on with 2%! UGH! Ive tried conditioning my battery by draining completely and charging completely. Maybe its a lemon, i dunno.

What ROM are you using? Stock or custom kernel? If custom kernel which one?
Mostly sounds like a bad battery to me. This has been showing up more often over the past couple of months. This device has gotten up in age and the batteries are giving out. Even users who have only had the device for a few months have seen this happening. While the purchase of the device maybe recent there is a good chance it has been sitting around at the store or a warehouse for a while.

If you want to save a few steps I suggest skipping rooting. Just Odin a custom recovery then flash a custom ROM. All custom ROMs are rooted already so the only reason you would need to root is if you plan on sticking with the stock ROM.
