    Wife just got the LG Connect, what should we do with it?

    Basically, I wanna know what we should do with it as far as tweaking? The battery life SUCKS. I've rooted and run the bloatware remover and shut off a couple things with Titanium backup. Does one of the stock ROMs work better then another? Any suggestions would be great!

    Not really a review, just my after thoughts. Anyway, I'm sure by now a lot of you have seen those cheap eBay battery and charger combo sets being offered for around $10~12.00 dollars shipped from Hong Kong. I ordered one a couple weeks ago to give it a shot. I figured even if the batteries...
