    problem with optimus g
    hello I have an optimus g e987... I have problems with the battery first I began to notice a rapid consumption of it and after they fixed it because I dropped it and the screen broke... they changed the screen and it turned out fine In a short time it started to turn off I am in some application or I want to enter a game and the equipment turns off and turns on only by plugging in the charger... on some occasions when it turns off the battery is completely discharged and on others it turns off but when I connect the charger it continues on same percentage of what was left when it was turned off...for me the problem is the battery, I don't know what you think...I would really appreciate an answer.Thank you!

    I think it is not necessary to activate the usb, by connecting it to the pc with pc suite, it should recognize it.

    Remove the screen lock if you have it, also disable the firewall.
