Now Krylon is thinking of jumping ship and getting a sensation?!
Are we fighting a losing battle? Or is the g2x going to come back stronger than ever?

I hope that devs come over to G2x land. LG can't work out its problems, T-Mobile can't work out its problems. Maybe the smart developers can work it out.
Praying for a rainstorm of developers!
I think it would be a mistake for anyone to jump ship unless they just really wanted something else. The G2x has an awesome screen (despite screen bleed), great hardware, and great form factor. The only thing wrong with it is software related, which is fixable. You can't fix poor hardware, which some newer phones do have.

Thinking and doing are 2 different things. I could easily sell one of my 7 devices and get the sense and still keep the g2x. Some people read to far into things.

Thanks for making me sound like a ****...Thinking and doing are two DIFFERENT things? Mind=blown...
I believe I did say "thinking" in the OP. I was only trying to point out that it seems as though a lot of people are switching to the sensation... And your update didn't say "thinking of selling one of my seven devices" it said "thinking of selling my g2x".
I wasn't trying to read too much into things. Just don't want a mass exodus...

CM7 already has the battery driver ironed out and a pretty stable release of 2.3.4. The phone itself is awesome and I'm loving the Tegra games.
I think I would be seriously disappointed if I were to switch to another phone right now.
I think my next phone won't be until Tegra 3's are out.

u hit it on the head player911, im effin loving my phone it is a beautiful piece i actually took my screen protector off and wow this screen is amazingly beautiful, ill tell u what those tmobile anti smear protectors suck! anyways the screen doesnt have one scratch id figure i would just keep one off because of the gorilla glass it has been about a week and not one scratch, and i think im just gonna stay with this phone for a while, i love the way this phone plays games, u have to check out galaxy on fire 2. great game....and now that cm7 is on its way to stable im not even worried about that official gingerbread release because it really wont do nothing special to our phones, we need the drivers from nvidia! as far as battery and etc., but like i said cm handled that......sorry a little off subject
Sorry this is general chit chat but I went to best buy to get my nexus and had cm7 on my evo. Here is the deal:
Me:evo getting nexus s
wife:evo
son:bb tour getting my evo
When they did the swap on the lines my evo with cm7 wasn't working so my son handed it to the salesman w/out me knowing about it. And the salesman was practically jumping saying how did you get 2.3 when its not even released? I was red in the face and told my wife why did he give that to him. I got home put .ruu on it and fixed it for him. WOW never again will i give a salesman a rooted cell; well actually my son did. What an experience. I love my nexus s but starting to want the 3d now.

I have the Evo, the 3D, and the Nexus S 4G. The 3D has a better screen (yes, actually better than AMOLED! More accurate colors, no blue-tint, and brighter) and is dual-core and 1.2 GHz and has double the RAM. It feels just as snappy as the NS4G. I'd say stick with the NS4G until they root the 3D, unless you love Sense.
The Evo is kind of like a Nexus One, a ton of ROMs and mods.

I just listed mine on Craigslist in anticipation of the SGSII coming to VZW.
I'm really really hoping it'll have 4G because I don't want to come back to the tbolt or have to deal with the bionic (unless the bionic is unlockable).
What about you guys? Anybody else selling to get top dollar before the new phones are officially announced?
Edit: http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...according-to-the-vzw-support-twitter-account/ woot, sgs2 will have 4g!

Fortunately, I have an old Incredible laying around that I can use in the meantime. I really hope VZW doesn't drop the ball here and delay it past early September. As far as I can tell, that tweet is VZW's first admission that the sgs2 for VZW even exists.

After hearing that it will have 4G, I might be tempted to sell my TBolt once it launches. I also am not a fan of samsung phones, but this thing really makes me drool.
i'll probably wait until next march(when my 1st year is up) as ill get my $400 deposit back then.
As a previous owner of the fascinate, I am definitely with you guys on the anti-Samsung bandwagon. The thing that has changed my mind is that Samsung has said that the sgs2 is practically made for Ice Cream Sandwich. That gives me hope that they will be updating it relatively quickly once ICS is released.
Also, the fact that they gave the sgs2 to some of the CM devs makes me think they are more consumer focused than they were the first go 'round.

All good points, I forgot they hooked up some devs with phones. I still have nightmares about my Captivate. This phone is in a completely different league though.
To be honest with you I want my next phone to be great out of the box. I never thought I would reach a point that I would be tired of rom flashing, lol. I could slap lpp on top of touchwiz and would be good to go.
Still love my bolt though, we'll see.
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
It's also the first and only android phone with a completely open sourced linux kernel (no linked binary blobs for drivers in it).
Selling your phone off for this right now is silly though. Who knows when it'll be out for CDMA/LTE. It could be another 5-6 months at the earliest.
The Galaxy S2 having 4G is still unconfirmed.

No one knows for sure if SGS2 will have LTE, although Samsung would be pretty stupid to not support it. If it does, I will be first in line....but my Tbolt will do just fine until then.

Unless you're willing to jack up the $$cash$$ then stick with it. Awesome phone. Fast. Gets you through a day on stock battery. Awesome Devs. Awesome Themers. They are very nice. And I am sure that you will enjoy your stay. Just read up. And if you like stock roms, go Vagabond. If you like native roms, go R3VELATION. If you like ports, go DlevRom. If you like stock.. then.... don't do anything. Go read the super thread over in the Dev thread. And click on every link in qksters signature. THEN ASK QUESTIONS.. if you still have any. I doubt that you will.. they are the most comprehensive guides ever..

Its a fine phone. gets the job done.
I remember when I first got my infuse, I was pretty skeptical Scott Android because I was an iPhone user. The one thing you'll notice about the infuse if how ginormous it is compared to other phones. And with that ginormous size comes with a gorgeous screen along with a very very lightweight device. You'll learn to love this beat and when you compare this phone to other phones, you'll notice that nothing can compare to Samsung's super amoled plus screen. The infuse really is an amazing device and I hope you can enjoy it as much as we do.

You made the right choice assuming you knew what you were looking for.
I did a straight trade on my iPhone 4 32G for the Infuse 4G and could not have been more satisfied. I also just purchased a Galaxy Nexus a few days ago and also preferred the Infuse in a number of ways. I ended up selling the GN and keeping the Infuse 4G, I kid you not!
A few selling points... (If I was to compare the Infuse VS the GN for example)
The GN has a higher pixel density but the Infuse has a better overall screen than the Galaxy Nexus, due to Super AMOLED Plus, the GN still uses a Pentile based Display, a big disappointment in my opinion.
The Infuse also has a Wolfson Microelectronics WM8994 DAC and clearly beats the heck of the GN in terms of audio quality(and the Galaxy S2 as a matter of fact). Just look up Voodoo sound and the mastermind behind it, Supercurio to help you understand it. Or check out this article for an interesting read:
http://www.anandtech.com/show/4686/samsung-galaxy-s-2-international-review-the-best-redefined/13
Infuse also has Gorilla glass, a much better capacitive and sensitive touch screen, expandable memory, comparable camera... I could go on and on...
To answer your questions about Roms, I'd recommend Cyanogen Mod 7, Revelation, Aeon, and Zeus for a start.
I typically switch back and fourth between the 4 of them, hope that helps.

Get it!!! I got mine for 50$ lol
There not might be as much development as a nexus or a captivate but the development this phone has is amazing!!!!!
Get your Zeus on and experience an amazing phone even more amazing!!!

Hey everyone! Most of you won't remember me, but I am back!
My kernel thread will be beyond repair to try and fix all the broken/dead links.
But....I have a CRAP TON of kernels and ROMs for the G2x stored on my laptop. Basically everything CM7 related kernels and ROMs, and some CM9 kernels and ROMs.
If there is something your in need of, let me know and I'll get it uploaded for you to download.
I'm still rocking the G2x for a little longer so I'll try to help anyway I can.
EDIT: Just did some checking on my kernel thread, seems the only dead links are Mazout360's. I can upload and share the Mazout kernels I have, although I believe the highest I have is v323OC but I'll fix up the kernel thread with new links since the rest are working.
Still, if there is something you need, contact me.

Things are much, much better now.
Glad to see someone I know is still around here!
I see we are at the same point as when I left like 7 months ago with this phone. That's sad. I'm still using vanilla CM7, what's funny is my G2x still puts some of my friends pre-paid ICS android phones to shame in speed/camera/gaming etc. lol
Glad things are looking up bro! After you disappeared a lot of the other gurus started fading out also to other forums and better phones. It's very sad about the dev issues man =( After you got me rolling with CM7 I became a flash-addict. I've flashed every ROM I could find for this device. Even made a few ports for personal use but none were that great. I have used every ICS hackfest and have tried most of the jelly bean hack fests.....if it wasn't for the damn ril wakelock the JB hackfests would be awesome. But they average around 4-5 hours of battery life and that's just awful lol. I'm currently on eaglesblood 4.0.4 but always have a CM7 nandroid handy whenever I feel like going to back. Picking up the Nexus 5 in a few weeks, you decide on your next rig yet?

Lol Im prob going to be stuck with this G2x for a bit longer, no money for an upgrade.
If I did pick something, I'd be looking at the LG G2, it's sweet, and being a non-nVidia device this time will make custom modding alot better as there's no proprietary drivers involved like with the G2x.
G2 is really sweet....but there doesn't seem to be a lot of development for it right now which is making me lean toward the nexus 5

I only partially blame LG for the lack of development, nVidia played a huge role in the G2x's demise as well. The G2 has a Snapdragon and from what I've read, development on a Snapdragon device is pretty good on the mod scene.
I can only hope. But like I said, I have no money so I'll prob get stuck with an older model like the HTC One. Whatever Tmo is offering for free or discount on a plan renewal.
