Hello, from your name looks like you are a wrestling fan from the era i watched. Jake the Snake was was of my favorites.Great android phone for $179 with unlimited straight talk plan for only $45 per month and no contract....... I cannot believe more people are not getting in on this great deal.
where do you go to get info when your phone stumps you? this is one of the short comings of my phone. it is my first venture from the flip phone, and i usually get it figured out..most of the time. mine is a LGL55C, which i guess they all are. I added a app called Easy Battery Saver, which seems to save the quick dying battery.

my battery drains after about 4 hours and I barely use phone...any suggestions
Root and then run advanced task killer. Each time the phone boots up it has the following process running:
Voice Dialer
Clock
Email
Camera
Gmail
Messaging
Amazon Appstore*
Gallery
Google Search
Market
Music
Pandora*
*I installed these apps myself and even these run on startup
Available Memory
Before - 279M
After - 308M
This will do wonders for your battery life.
Also run this periodically throughout the day because anything you open will not go away unless you kill the task.

Ok here my question and im sorry if im posting this in the wrong place couldn't find much info out there on the straight talk optimus Q. But is there any way to make the phone roam or work off Verizon towers, my prevous straight talk phone did but this one doesn't and its reception is horrible. I have tried using apps like roam override and roam control neither work, and im not really sure how to update the PRL's any help would be greatly appreciated.
