I really just wanted to make a thread because I cannot believe how much more I can get out of this device than my previous. I had an Epic 4G previous to this and switched back to tmobile because I got back on a family plan to save me some money. I was expecting to not get as great of device with the mytouch but I liked the price and that it was 4G. After rooting it flashing CM7 and the new kernel. Holy crap my Epic4G is garbage.
I just jumped back into the development thread and they finally have an OC kernel for 2.2 and they are pulling 16's in linpack and 1150+ in quadrant at 1.2gHz....I put my CM7 at 1.2 and I pulled 37.8 in Linpack and 1890 in quadrant . When I bump it up to 1.8gHz I pull 63.5 in linpack and in pull 3048 in quadrant.
I'm just stunned at how well this device has performed in the few days I have had it!
Oh and I forgot to mention that my battery life is WAYYYYY better. Haven't had to plug my phone in all day and ive been using facebook and texting all day. 12 hours and 40% battery still left! WOOT!
Welcome. I'm also a Galaxy S converter and have never looked back. This phone will definitely hold me over until a good 4.3" one comes out on tmobile.
Agreed. I liked the Vibrant but look at how hard of a time they're having just getting CM on it. While every thing can be ported to the MT4G such as CM, sense, and even MIUI. I know dual cores are right around the corner but I can honestly say that this phone will last me the full 2 years of the contract. Everything is blazing as it is, don't need to spend hundreds on a dual core when I won't even notice the speed increase.

FYI, I get higher linpack with my stock, non-overclocked MT4G than you do with CM7 and Higher quadrant than your CM7 at 1.2, And I'm stock, no overclock. But at 1.8, You win... so IMO CM7 is worthless, unless you just want that gingerbred looking jazz and don't like sense.
I got my gf a Captivate shortly after I got my MT4G and I felt a little embarrassed once the difference in quality became apparent. We still talk about her getting her an MT4G of her own when her contract with AT&T is finally up in like 9 months.
The pretty AMOLED screens are battery murderers.

Well what did you expect? thats why they call it stock as it has so much BS bolts its not even funny, IDK why you didn't just try IG. Thats the beauty of CM7RC1(ASOP2.3.2) as its modified for performance and power consumption with nice balance. Don't let the synthetic score get to your head as it means nothing and no way does it translate in to real world performance. Soon as I got MT4G in hours I rooted and put IG on it as CM7(GB) NB came out from Alpha most of us switched to the darkside no need to look back.

Besides, I only said it because there is NO WAY stock non-o/c'd MySense can perform better than CM7 at 1.2ghz. Either in real world performance or some arbitrary benchmark figure. Just not happening. Unless of course you mean the awesomeness that is FRIEND STREAM. CM7 got nothin' on that goodness.

Ya I am a big hypocrite thats why I gave the warning. But far as your first comment goes I was just saying if you guys start it ill just simply end it just go look around for my SS as my power, memory is 3x more efficient then what you are using. For the second part I myself can't verify this as I only had stock rom for less than 1 hour before I got rid of that POS. If he says he got it then let him what diff does it make? If you call a cow a goat not it don't make it a goat now does it?

What kernel are you using with CM7? I just use the one that came with the stable version? Where can I find this kernel you are so happy with???

So, after people started reporting that their benchmarks are in the 3000's, I decided to flash from ginger RC1 and holy cow this is freakin' fast. Even before I ran the quadrant test everything felt so fast. Twice as fast as vegan gingerbread. I wanted to run the quadrant with all the apps and stuff that I'd be running (quickoffice, dolphin, etc.) and holy cow benchmark was still in the 3000's every time.
I ain't moving to any other rom until someone finds something faster.
Does the unit feel warm or hot ? The rated CPU clock speed is 1.2 (or 1.0, not sure). I am a bit concerned about overclocking to 1.5 at higher voltage. In addition, what apps that were slow and are needing this kind of power ?
Thanks
Sweet.. but honestly with out video drivers for gingerbread its utterly pointless for me :O( Keep us updated on how stable it is :O)

Since when did we "need" anything? The gtab will work just fine with the stock rom. But with a custom rom, it works better. The clakulin+clemsyn v3 combo works even better. I just like the raw power that it gives me.
Added by edit.
But to answer your questions, doesn't feel warm or hot to me at all. Battery life is undoubtedly reduced, although I'm still trying to determine by how much. Stand by for this.

I was concerned about heat and the case feels a bit warmer but not significantly. I guess we will see over time. I would say battery life is reduced but I don't have any numbers. The devs have included a nifty OC profile based on battery life. This is my new favorite rom.
This combo is crazy fast. I scored a 3521 on quadrant. I have been running it for 24 hrs now with no issues. Does not seem to be running hot at all. Battery life seems fine but Im sure it is using more juice.

Here. Nuff said.
Edit.
Keep in mind that I've already installed apps like quickoffice and such. In other words, if I had ran this test right after I flashed this rom I'm sure the score would have been higher.
Here you go: 4484, that beats 345 xooms even overclocked . Oh my.
Sorry about the resolution. I didn't know if I posted at full size if the picture would be huge or not.
Sent from my UPC300-2.2 using Tapatalk
How the flying pigs did you get it up to 4484?
Ok, so I ran it a few more times and it seemed a little sluggish as I had been putting it through its paces today . I shut it down and rebooted. I just ran it 3 times in a row. My lowest score after letting it sit for a bit was 4521, best of the 3 was 4665! Yikes.

I am also using and loving this rom. Love the smooth video with Froyo (but wish it could work with Ginger).
It feels slightly warmer than before I think, but the temp sensor never reads above 87 degrees F, which has to be a safe operating temp, right?

Listen to me very carefully. The devs are doing this on their own time without getting paid. Us lowly humans don't wish anything. Ok? Clemsyn said he was going to do ginger soon, and that's his choice. We don't wish anything. Ok? He's not obligated to do anything. What he's done for froyo is way way way beyond what he's suppose to do, which is nothing. Ok? He made it clear just last week that his intention was to return the gtab and move on with his life. He then decided to stick around and created new roms that are almost twice as fast as previous roms.
If you're disappointed, then Clemsyn could just drop the whole thing and leave. If you're disappointed, please go buy an ipad 2, ok?
In fact, I highly recommend against getting a gtab for most people. I promise, you will not be disappointed with the ipad 2. Love you long time. Go, put the disappointment of a device gtab up on ebay and go out and buy the ipad 2 now, please, before you get any more disappointed.

Very nice. Xoom owners will hate you for sure.
Thank you and others for posting scores.
Very fast. Always loved Calkulin's ROM, and I've come home after playing with Vegan GB for a while (also a great ROM). It also appears that the OC settings work with pershoot's OC kernel as well. I love the fact that it clocks based on battery life.

Geez guy, did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed this morning? It's not like he posted a long harrasing write up for Gingerbread. It was subtle just like you should be. Chill out please.
On that note does anyone have a video of this "Beast ROM" in action?
Wish I could get this combo running. I have been running C&C 1.1+v9 for awhile now and love it. I can't get any of the OC kernals running. The only way I can get this to boot is to install the C&C OC combo and before booting I have to install Clemsyn's v9 kernal. I can't get Pershoots 1.4 ghz kernel running either.
The best I have gotten was with the C&C combo and then installing Clemsyn's OC Extra kernal and I can get to the HC animated boot screen but it never gets past that. My son and I bought our gtabs the same day and his runs all the OC kernels.. Oh Well...

1500 isn't necessary. In fact, you're risking frying your phone! 1200 is the median for most.
Common Sense is learned..........
do 1500 but when u processor will be overheat, your phone gonna restart.
thats all....I don't remember no one in my life who broke the PHONE because overclocking.
For me 1400 best...because 1500 not stable for "heavy congestion."

It happens often. Why do you think is called "OVERclocking"? OEM's set specific numbers on their kernels for a reason. Besides the numbers themselves and meaningless quadrant scores, you'll probably not notice any difference between 1200 or 1400

yes I had my other G2x set to 1500 and the battery life was better for me...I prolly set it to 1400 to see how things go. I had to get a new G2x because say someone set me a text msg saying "hey" i would get 200-400 of them and then one day I restarted it and it go to the point where it said LG with the blue bar under it then it would restart...why I have no clue but I would like to figure out why before I have to send it back because I have it rooted and would like to unroot it before sending it back. I also have pictures on the phone that I don't really want to lose so if anyone could help me with that that would be great also.
nobody is really going to answer his question? If you are trying to change the speed either download a program called pimp-my-cpu or setcpu. Both of those will give you full access to do what ever u please to your phones processors. Hope this helps!
there is a place in the setting that you can do it at i just don't remember where to find it at.
anyways im getting an infuse pretty soon(2 -3 days), coming from a samsung captivate.
anyways what im wondering is, is this phone pretty safe to flash? (how high are bricking odds)
is there an easy way to flash back to stock in case i have to warranty replace the phone?
any pretty much stock gb rom?

My experiences are just the opposite in terms of GPS. It's flaky and inconsistent and drops lock all the time in Froyo, it's fairly consistent without any fixes or tweaks in every GB ROM I've tried.
Only issue is that it seems that for the first 5-10 minutes after locking there will sometimes be an offset in the position fix. It was much worse in Froyo. My guess is that the AGPS system is truncating the precision of some of the satellite orbit info, causing position error until the real ephemerides come down from the sat.
yeah i doubt itd be worse then the captivate considering lol. it would pretty much refuse o lock gps at all stock, with roms it varied greatly, at best it would lock decently.
Tyshemi, I tried your fix and it didn't work for me. However, I did find another method that worked for me.

I also came from a Captivate that I dropped and broke the screen.
Compared to that, the GPS is awesome. Takes about two or three seconds for me to get a 25m lock.
I'm running Infused 2.1.0.
Why get an Infuse now? The Galaxy S2 is only 1-2 weeks away; I'm returning my Infuse for the GS2 (id the price is the same). Even if you don't want the GS2, the Infuse price MAY drop when the GS2 is out.

Hi all. Just wanted to say that I got my new Charge today and love it. I put the leaked gingerbread rom from tbh on there and I think it's great. I could have waited for the nexus or gotten a bionic, but price was a huge deciding factor for me. Performance is on par with the bionic. Nice little machine for a cheap price (from amazon).

Only the CWM has prereqs. The Odin version is all-in-one.
Yep download the Odin file and flash it. It contains everything you will need (kernal, radios, and obviously the rom itself) and you will enjoy your phone even more. The kernal included in the file also supports overclocking if you are into doing that as well.

Humble is no faster than the TBH leak set up correctly (I have tried both). TBH plus the CoreDroid theme is better looking than Humble also IMHO.
I am using the TBH setup, imoseyon 4.0 kernel, fuju tweaks, etc etc etc & it is EVERY BIT as fast as any Humble ROM. It hit 2400 in Quadrant and is the fastest smoothest setup I have ever used.

After playing with this phone for a few days I think it's safe to say I made the right choice in getting this over the bionic. Saved over $100 and this thing flies! The devs on this forum are amazing.

Believe me, you made the right choice.
I owned a Bionic briefly, other than the dual processor the Charge is better in every possible way. The screen on the Bionic is absolutely hideous compared to the Charge.....
The new Razr screen isn't real great either.

Almost every thing looks like crap compared to this phone's screen. That was one of the main reasons I chose it over the HTC Thunderbolt.

CyanogenMod... Hands down, fastest ROM out there IMO
Running Eagle Bloods rom with faux123 kernel. Overclocked my phone 1.5gHZ with it undervolted as well. Getting over 15 hours of HARD power use while listening to music for 3 hours, web 2 hours, great GPS and mass amounts of texting.
Add in the few levels of World of Goo and being able to run this bad boy on the BIG SCREEN with the hdmi useing a 30 foot cable.....
This is the phone to have. Period.

Noob question: so flashing the kernel gives better battery life? or the fact that it's undervolted?

The fact it undervolted but not all g2x cpu are built the same, undervolting can kill your cpu if it cant handle it

Best thing about this phone is the games made for tegra. They are enhanced!
There isn't really a need to change kernal because this phone is fast as is. I tried it, oc'd it and never saw real time improvements. I actually underclock mine to 816mhz and it still plays all games the same.
This phone operates the best for me on Baldwin's kang cm7. Its fast and reliable. Either way you will want to use anything that uses the external sd card for app storage.

I know this is an old thread but just wanted to say this phone is pretty awesome, my grandmother loves it and so do I. What I love the most about it is the stock build of the phone, the phone seems to respond faster when tapping on capacitive buttons then when I click them on my mytouch 4g slide which isnt stock like the g2x. I notice stock will always be faster then phones which have sense, touchwiz, and other crap of layer on top of android

G-ma's stock G2x. Updated software?
You mentioned the speed of the stock build. I am curious if GRANDMA has the recent software update. It's V21Y and brings the phone up to Gingerbread 2.3.4 (as opposed to 2.3.3 previously. My wife has been on it over a month now w/o rebooting. It's an awesome stock build! My G2x is rooted and running recent Cyanogenmod real well too. The stock is so good now that even I sometimes restore a rooted stock nandroid for ZERO bugginess!
Joining in the dredging of an old thread - I loaded V21y on both my and my wife's phone - both run slower with noticeably more lag than stock Froyo. But no dreaded Black Screen Of Death, which is what my wife hated (she is on call sometimes). So I guess I'm happy. Someday I should try a dev rom I guess... But I NEED WiFi calling and a2dp - not sure if I can get that in a dev rom...

wifi calling and a2dp work in almost all of the roms, even on the new baseband (except bluetooth calling, but streaming music works), just try one and find out. CM7 is the best place to start

Yea she got the update 2.3.4, the stock build is awesome fast, faster than the htc sense obviously but I still love the htc sense animations are just better on sense if sense could be just as fast as stock id loved it even more lol. Stock makes a big difference even the single core G2 is fast on stock faster than the mytouch even with 2 cores. I've done the test I tap the menu at the same time on the 3 phones and the mytouch is the slowest. However you do see the difference when not on the UI, for example on apps, the browser, and loading obviously the mytouch wins on that aspect 1.2 ghz dual core

theres still some minor issues with the 2.3.4 got one rare SOD and a few odd reboots. cm7 has none of the issues. guess thats the tradeoff for proper quality of calls and a working gps.
I downgraded my baseband back to the March 2011 firmware, loaded up Hell Fire Phoenix with Faux's stable kernel, running V6 SuperCharger, and a Team Carbon theme that I'm currently modifying to my specific likings.
This phone flies for me. Everything works and it looks great while doing it. I really don't see a need to get a new phone, unless I decide I want a larger screen.
I still hate LG, but hey...

I'm using the mytouch and my grandma won't be changing phones in a long while maybe untill her upgrade is due. And for me would be the same, I'm waiting for the quad core htc mytouch to come out.
