Why wait? Qik works fine!
Knowing Samsung, you'll be waiting forever for an official update. Good thing there are some top-notch devs working on porting 2.3.x over right now!

Here's a "stupid, but true" answer: I use the camera app as a mirror to make sure I don't have obvious crumbs or chicken bones stuck in my beard, after lunch, before going back to work. Dumb, but handy. I can turn on the sepia effect and I have a hand mirror that shows me what I look like, right now, in a film-noir piece from 1943.
Nice that it can be used as a "mirror", bummer that it takes pictures like a "mirror". Took a pic of me and my kid holding up an award, but the words are backwards and you cant read the award. I wanted to post the pic to share with family, but grandma couldn't read the certificate my kid was so proud of......

Qik works through its own protocols, only people who have it installed (or similar apps) will be visible in Qik contact list.
Google Talk uses gmail's contact list, and is far more useful to me. Person doesn't have to be in a cellphone to video-chat with me. I can call anyone and have voice or video chat.

yes definately att (and every other us carrier) attempting to control the market value of the phones. they will get out an update as soon as google or samsung steps in and says knock it off, or when a competing popular phone gets 2.3.4
Transformer27, in a utter display of noobieness, I ask you, how do I flip the pic? The best I can find is crop, rotate left/right etc...but no flip. Maybe I'm not ready for a smart phone yet.

Netflix did have a job posting earlier in the year suggesting that they were looking for an Android developer.
http://pocketnow.com/tech-news/netflix-targeting-streaming-for-android-with-latest-job-posting
Rumor has it Netflix will have a streaming Android player soon, hopefully very soon.
For now we'll wait. I wish they just used flash instead of the special plugin they require. If you change ur UA String to desktop and try to stream a movie, it asked you to install their silverlight plugin.

Google TV is going to support netflix is it not? and that is just android
I believe the Netflix support is because of GTV has Chrome built-in and has the tools necessary to play it. There's an Android app in dev that targets mobile phones and tablets.
its coming give it a few...im sure it will have a better ui than the one on the iphone.
Soooo amped for this. The "workday" will be so much more fun now...lol

Question about streaming. Does 4G affect streaming audio/video or does it just affect downloading/uploading a file(s)?
Figured this would be a good place to post this, but is there a good Netflix app to just manage my movies and such?
Have you tried PhoneFlicks or QueueMan? I use PhoneFlicks and it works well, I've never used QueueMan but have heard it works well too.

Is there any app we can use for video chat. Skype is not doing it. Am I doing somthing wrong

I, too, would like to get my post count up, but at least make it useful!
Latest leaked Gtalk has video. You can try to install Gtalk 1.3 if you are on GB 2.3+ . See this thread: forum.xda-developers DOT com/showthread.php?t=1056793
It will require ADB, though. Or you can flash it with recovery mode.
You guys are taking yourself too seriously on your post counts. He asked a question what am I doing wrong and I simply replied gingerbread doesn't work with skype.
I'm on FroYo so I use Skype but Tango seems fairly popular cross-platform.

I never used tango and probably will only use oovoo because all of my friends use it on their computers I don't know anyone who has a ffc so they just use oovoo as its the easiest

Hello everyone today I just got off the phone with netflix and told them my issue with the netflix app for the g2x, they basically told me the tech people are working on it I know the solution of the problem its basically the build prop( for example most android phones have model numbers but the rest its doesn't match so therefore the app is confuse of the model and the manufacture.) my suggestion is to call netflix if you have the g2x and tell them that it doesn't work the more people who call they can update it faster. and i know it works for eagle-blood and cm7 but if you like a Rom that your comfortable with why change it, its your rom and you deserve the best. take care people.
Running good here....

Really? Who gives a flying fig if it works on custom roms. This thread isn't about that. Stop building your post counts by adding crap that doesn't pertain to the thread.
I have tried MIUI several times and have come to the conclusion that if I wanted an iPhone I would buy one. WiFi drops constantly and WiFi calling doesn't work. There is no option to adjust HDMI output and HBO Go doesn't work. I will say the camera is better and the toggle screen is great, but other than that it doesn't work for me.
To OP - Thanks for the update. I have called several times and have yet to hear anything close to them admitting they are working on it. Every time I call they blame LG. Here's hoping we see something soon.

wtf people, everyone knows it will run on a custom rom, It has for a while, what the op is about is running netflix on a stock rom, I have tried all the custom roms and none have working bluetooth, which i use my bluetooth daily on my motorcycle for music, texts, and gps. So please stop posting what everyone already knows. Until these custom roms support ALL the hardware that came with my phone they are useless, tried them all, some are great but none offer bluetooth and netflix.
Maybe you should change the thread title to say stock because it will continue to happen lol
