Optimus one has a much better screen resolution but a worse screen :) (color depth is worse).

But having Froyo and a promised update to Gingerbread is worth something ;)

My phone doesn't hang or restart at all, but I read that it might have something to do with using a slow microSD (buying a class 6 seems to solve the problem for some people).

Internet speed and reception (both phone and 3G) are very good in my opinion.

Optimus One specific:
- Call Log (because there's no physical 'call' button, you can make a shortcut to the call log)

For anyone: I don't actually use that many apps, but I'm partial to:
- RealCalc (scientific calculator with RPN option, now I can sell my HP42S ;) )
- AdFree (no more pesky google ads)
- Barcode Scanner (ZXing)
- Astro file manager
- CalWidget (beats the standard calendar widget to death)
- SMS Backup & Restore (Ritesh Sahu)
- Spare Parts (for battery info)
- Toddler Lock (to keep my 2y old entertained)
- Angry Birds (just great)


Hi, sorry but I really don't see the point of installing astro file manager, because by default we already have I/O Manager. Unless something is missing or different between them? It'll help if anyone would share :)

Just bought my P500 less than a month ago. :) I find it really nice for it's price, espcially the promise of 2.3. But just a question though, do angry birds run really slow on your phone? =/

Hey,

I don't have the I/O manager. Maybe part of your 'branding' pack?

Angry Birds is just playable (some screens show a lot of lag, though)

Just download quick settings ( the one with the green icon). Open and tap menu button. Customize and you will see hidden settings. Move wifi hotspot up to the visible settings by grabbing icon on right of screen.

Then all you need to do is open quick settings press wi fi hotspot and laptop can connect through phone.
