Please check to see whether any problems you encountered with your phone are
described in this section before taking the phone in for service or calling a service
representative.
1. Phone memory
When there is less than 10% of space available in your phone memory, your phone
cannot receive new messages. You need to check your phone memory and delete some
data, such as applications or messages, to make more memory available.
To uninstall applications:
1 Touch > Apps tab > Settings > Apps from the DEVICE category.
2 Once all applications appear, scroll to and select the application you want to
uninstall.
3 Touch Uninstall.
2. Optimising battery life
Extend your battery's life between charges by turning off features that you don't need
to having running constantly in the background. You can monitor how applications and
system resources consume battery power.
Extending your phone's battery life:
• Turn off radio communications you are not using. If you are not using Wi-Fi, Bluetooth
or GPS, turn them off.
• Reduce screen brightness and set a shorter screen timeout.
Before you start using the phone, please read this!

• Turn off automatic syncing for Google Mail™, Calendar, Contacts and other
applications.
• Some applications you have downloaded may reduce battery power.
To check the battery power level:
• Touch > Apps tab > Settings > About phone from the SYSTEM > Status

displayed at the top of the screen.
To monitor and control how battery power is being used:
• Touch > Apps tab > Settings > Power saver from the DEVICE > Battery use
from the BATTERY INFORMATION
Battery usage time is displayed at the top of the screen. It tells you how long it

4. Before installing an open source application and OS
WARNING
If you install and use an OS other than the one provided by the manufacturer
it may cause your phone to malfunction. In addition, your phone will no longer
be covered by the warranty.
WARNING
To protect your phone and personal data, only download applications from
trusted sources, such as Play Store™. If there are improperly installed
applications on your phone, it may not work normally or a serious error may
occur. You must uninstall those applications and all associated data and

seconds, and then release all them at the same time, before the LG logo disappears.
Leave your phone for at least a minute while the hard reset is carried out. You will then
be able to switch your phone back on.

Caution: If you perform a hard reset, all user applications and user data will be deleted.
This cannot be reversed. Remember to back up any important data before performing a
hard reset.

application, stopping and starting them as needed to ensure that idle applications don't
consume resources unnecessarily.
