Hi guys, it looks like the G2X will be out at 20th April, but I know that few of you have the device now (for testing purposes, etc.).
Would you mind taking some time, and sharing with us dump of /system and boot partitions?
Thanks in advance

Indeed, lets hope that someone brave will appear
Today is officialy out
I really hope the G2X Vanilla ROM does not have the same lags as the optimized O2X ROM from MoDaCo.
Well, MoDaCo Rom is much much better than original. But just try to add a widget - Why the hell does it take so long to show the whole list...? On my Desire it appears immediately...

Its definitely a ROM problem,
In the past T-Mobile's ROM's have been decent, very lightweight and fast, and i would expect nothing less this time.
I still think the G2 ROM is one of the best Froyo ROM's out there

@JupiterDroid: Good to see you here mate! Good you trade the HTC Desire HD in for a LG Optimus 2X, or didnt you?
I'd love to know if the G2X firmware can be run on the regular 2X. The thought of running the LG firmware isn't all that appealing
(I haven't actually received my phone yet)
I already ordered the g2x, and it should be here in a few days. If its not posted til then, ill put up a system dump. I just hope the roms between the two devices are interchangeable

if he doesnt post system dumps i will
and yeah the roms should be able to port over smooth... (kinda like the captivate/vibrant roms port)
just gotta change kernels/modems (i think)
its out. i have the demo in my hands. its a beast. OC here we come.. lol
it is a straight vanilla 2.3 rom. there isnt much of anything frivilous on it.

Am hoping the ROMs will be fully interchangeable between the devices.
Otherwise, I may stay with the stock ROM for awhile - of course, after rooting, flashing recovery, and freezing unwanted apps with titanium. And maybe an overclock kernel (if compatible).
Since it should be an open device, I don't think it will be long before XDA ports a 2.3 ROM for it.

Now I'm getting the G2X sent over from the USA for me, so will be hanging with you guys for the next 8 months until my next contract upgrade Thought it would be a great option as Paul OB has a O2X and Cyanogen is getting the G2X, so when you have that combination you know the **** is gonna hit the fan

No, not until it can be ported from legend, etc.

Sense is unfortunately not open source and is hardcoded to the Hero's processor. Zenulator is keeping his eye out for similar phones that might get a 2.2 update.

That was mine too until I got the bump to SP (Sprint Premium).
Now I get 12 month upgrades as opposed to 22 months. That's why I'm stuck with the Hero until March, at least. By then, though, we'll probably know about some awesome stuff coming out in May or June that I'll just have to wait for.
This is why I still want a Froyo port for us on the Hero even though I've pretty much given up hope to it happening. Even as it stands, though, I can't see the Hero falling too far behind in the meantime, especially with all the great stuff ZEN and the other devs are still working out for us. I mean, considering all the crappy Android phones on the market right now I'd say we're in pretty good shape for having such "old" technology. My brother is stuck with a Behold II until March 2012. I say I win

I'd agree with that, and we have darch and zen and other great devs... were doing pretty good
I see a couple people but where are all the roms? google even released 2.3.4 source but I haven't seen the explosion of developement for this phone yet. despite a few issues this phone is one badass phone. after i got one without screen bleed and really sunk into it this phone is better that any android i've ever used and has features the Samsung Galaxy S 2 won't have such as nvidia tegra 2 which in my opinion is a much more solid piece of hardware and a much more well known company than the one on the SGS 2. and Smartshare, Ultra dolby digital mobile!!! this phone is the ****! plus i heard bionix was coming to this phone via team whiskey! I see faux released a rom and he doesn't even have the phone! we have a good start but....
Where are the devs!!!??? please we need you people. you guys make phones these expensive things worth purchasing for the insane amounts of money they cost. oh mighty development lords, please develope!
its called patience.
to quote the Princess Bride "I hate waiting..." lol i have patience it just doesn't seem like many have signed on yet like with the vibrant i've had for 10 months.
You also have to remember that out dev section is split between the o2x and g2x. These two forums should be combined.

I agree development is slower than I'd expected..
I was gonna make a ROM, but the stock ROM with Titanium Backup is best for me. If you build AOSP you lose the awesome Camera app that LG wrote and you lose all the cool apps that come with the G2x.
For me I just uninstall the apppack app and freeze the wifi calling app and I'm good to go.
I tried the GB build and it had GPS issues and didn't have the nice camera app.
So I'm happy with the stock setup with a few tweaks.

i agree. guess i feel spoiled from all the vibrant support. i figured this phone would explode fast in dev. since we had root so fast and dual core, plus being a google phone. hopefully t-mobile gets off their ass and releases the official gingerbread like they promised before i purchased my phone (which was the ONLY reason i even was ok with purchasing an android 2.2 again). maybe that'll fix the problem ttabbal was talking about with the kernels.

I think it will be considering the great progress some of these guys are making. Besides we will have(most likely) multiple Roms, before LG even thinks about the OTA.

The Nexus One was destined for high end development anyways...But even the freaking HD2 now has ICS. Now thats ridiculous
But yah, ICS really has nothing to be depressed over. Except for the hardware acceleration capability...now CM9 is a whole other thing. But i'm sure CM9 will be available way before LG drops the major update.
I spent a few hours installing ICS on my daughter's Samsung Vibrant. It was nice to play with but not totally earth shattering. Some UI changes (improvements?), some different features. I was very excited about ICS now after spending some time with it, I can be patient and for the developers to work it out.

Let not your heart be troubled.
Before you smash the G2x, flash Phoenixblood rom + Faux latest cm kernel and let us all know how you feel about your G2x then lol
I think just about all of us are anticipating cm9 but i believe i have found the best cm7 experience with 0 flaws imo with PhoenixBlood rom
To me is not really about ics, its about how they treat us (g2x users) if it wasn't for cm7/cerqueira this phone would be nothing, im glad i got a good one but many people got ****ty phones and the only reason they did gb was because of the lawsuit. They don't want to give us a fish (updates) and they sure as hell don't want to teach us how to fish (drivers).
I for sure dont want nothing to do with lg/nvidia, had a chance to get 2 cheap LG tvs for xmas, went with another more expensive brand!

It ran fine without any bug and everything working. It sucks because there is no CM Settings menu.....thats where most of the feature that I use daily are located. losing all those features to gain better new looks is pointless.
I like this phone but, because of the lack of support for it, not LG, NVIDIA and Google. Although it's blasphemy stating this on an Android focused website forum, because of the total messup with this phone, except for the devotion of independent developers and others who support/supported this phone, I will not be buying anything with NVIDIA in it, made by LG, and probably not Android. I am going to seriously consider phones which run the new Windows OS and the iPhone 5 when it comes out.

Well if he does, and it works, then i'll start a ROM based from it.
I dont know much *(or anything) about programming and so on. but this entire fragmentation way of doing things, where each company needs to have their own team and we all need to wait for the release of google's latest, is just plain annoying.
At the mercy of a company that already sold you their device? that's not smart. Google should hold all SC (or drivers, or whatever U call these) and release them to all public and all phones at the same time.
But what am I BSing about?!

Well I have managed to port 4.0.3 to my g2x but still can't get sound and cam right like the other builds. But some things ive found improvements on. Since my g2x is just a play toy for me I don't care about camera but without sound its useless. Im still messing with it but put it to the back burner for now because I'm highly frustrated with it.

The only reason I avoided the Sensation was the price difference, hehe. Turns out it had its own set of problems like the G2x. Seems to me ICS is forthcoming with no set timetable by the devs.

According to HTC, the Desire HD is confirmed to get an official ICS OTA! As we all know, the DHD and MT4G have nearly identical hardware and ROMs are very easy to port between the two. The stock DHD ICS ROM would make a perfect (read: fully functional) base for the MT4G. Assuming we still have decent devs in a few months, we should have a very nice ICS ROM.

As far as specs, yes. Historically speaking, DHD ROMs do still have to be ported to an extent. However, I would expect a fully working camera will be extremely easy with a DHD dump as a base.

the kernel is the biggest issue right now and hopefully the dhd's ICS kernel can help
well guys, look at this:
The MT4G is "expected by HTC" to get ICS, but nothing's official yet

I saw that, but isn't that complete crap? Just seems highly unlikely to me. My bet is HTC doesn't consider it worth it, because the myTouch series of phones has that ugly TMO-customized version of Sense. So they'd put a lot of work in customizing that UI to work on ICS for only two phones, one of which is nearing a year and a half old. I just don't see it happening.
Guess I might just keep my phone.. Sounds good...

If it is true, that's another kick in the ass to people who thought we would never get it. I hope we get an official version
If I helped, give thanks, if you please.

tell people that they're "considering" on an upgrade, excite everyone, and then don't upgrade...
