Having a few issues with my F6 and was wondering if anyone else had these issues.
Current specs: Optimus F6 MS500 w/Xperion ROM (12b) and Freedom Kernel OC'd to 1.4 Ghz
1: Browser Issues: Stock Metro browser sometimes has issues where it will flicker the images on the screen while trying to view a page. The pages will also stutter while attempting to scroll up or down.
2: Reboots: Sometimes the phone will do a soft reboot while I am talking on it effectively kicking me off from the conversation. (lol obviously)
3: Lag: Lately I have been having lag issues while just swiping between home screens. Nothing too serious, just thought I would put that out there.
4: Battery: Been having some pretty strange battery drain over the past couple of weeks even though I have not installed anything new in the last month. One day the phone will remain at 100% for hours after the phone is taken from the charger and will last almost a whole day with constant use before needing a recharge, and some days the battery will drain like i'm trying to power my home with it, in just a few hours. Not sure if it's a hardware issue or not, or just plain old wear but the fluctuation is what is making me wonder.
5: Screen: Lately I have noticed (last month) the screen will sometimes stay black when I press the wakeup/sleep button, but the home button and panel will light up until I press the wakeup/sleep button again and repeat the process. Again, not sure if it's hardware related or just a bug in JB that comes out over time.
6: Reception: Over the past month I have had strange reception issues. No work has been reported on the local towers and when I first got the phone it had perfect reception. Now i'm lucky if I can get 2 bars and some times i will lose all bars for a few seconds.
These issues have been happening more frequently lately and I know it's not a ROM issue since a few of the problems seem to be happening to my girlfriends phone as well. We bought them and activated them on the same day, and they both have been used about the same amount.
I'm thinking a reset might be in order, but I'll wait until I get word it may be happening to someone else too..
The only problems my girlfriend hasn't experienced yet is the browser problems and hers doesn't reboot nearly as often. Other then that, they are both seeming to have similar issues.
