for those of u..... - T-Mobile LG G2x

for the peoples that are running cm7 and netflix, obviously u know u had to hack build.prop and change model to htc-vision and manufacturer to htc, well today i was gona post something on my phone using the xda app and it said sent from my htc vision! lol, instead of lg-p999 , now is this bad? cuz obviously the app thinks my phone is the htc vision, i guess like the netflix app does. but it wont mess the phone up rite?

No it won't mess it up. Xda's app just takes your product id from the build.prop.

no wondering I was seeing you and another person sending from a HTC Vision yesterday

lol yea i seen that and was like but then i remembered i have the netflix app and did that hack, pretty cool

why are people so concerned about Gingerbread? I bet at least half of the people who kept asking for Gingerbread does not even know why they wanted it. I'd like to see what is the main reason people need it. I understand it's the latest version and it got some cool features but does it really affect the phone that much? I'd rather ask LG to fix some of the issues they have now rather than the Gingerbread... just my 2 cents...
I thought the wordage (yes I did) of my tweet would display the humor in was going for. Now I did mean it don't let the smooth taste fool ya. But you guys are so he'll bent on making people feel stupid you didn't even notice it.
I didn't start this thread for scrubs to come in and flame. I want Gingerbread for the same reason I buy a new phone every 2-3 months. Because it's new. I know how to root my phone, I have every ROM stored on my phone so I can play with it in my spare time, but what's wrong with wanting an official update?
And don't you think an official update would come with bug fixes?
This forum has gone to ****, you ****ers need to get off your high horses and chill out. =D
But if you want a list.
Improved UI
Improved power management
Improved copy/paste
Those are the features I want. Keyboard seems nice too but I can download that now.
Anyways thanks for taking your time to try and ruin my day, but you failed.
On the brighter side of thews.
did you read about the guy who pocket dialed 911 while planning his next heist? Classic fail.

I think LG rushed the phone out the market. It's time to get our phones working right with a update from LG

People often balk at the idea of online petitions, but nowadays, getting enough people to complain on Facebook and Twitter will change a company's tune real quick. Look how quickly HTC changed up their bootloader policy and at how they decided to give Desire users Gingerbread after telling them it wasn't possible. Such a campaign would be the last thing T-Mobile or LG needs, especially since LG said they were counting on their Optimus line of phones to help them profit after announcing a loss last quarter. At least we know fixes are coming soon for our phone. LG promised Gingerbread to Optimus One users back in December and they haven't heard a peep since then...

they are right on the verge of updating the phone and your calling for its head! so what phone do you want instead the sensation? yes tmobile we want less phones to choose from! moron
Mine is perfect. No recall needed here.
I can't help but wonder if the complaints here on xda are actually representative of all G2X owners, or if there is a very vocal minority that are having legitimate problems, but we just don't hear from all the satisfied owners. Mayne I'm wrong, but I can't help but wonder.

I'm a more than satisfied G2x owner who has no issues with their phone.
I'm most certainly in. Let's create a little twitter hashtag for everyone to use. Kind of like #NeverAgain.
Now, I know some people will be out because "its the best phone (they've) owned. That's fine. I just want a phone that works.

As with all devices, most users are not knowledgable of XDA, and don't browse the forums. So, this is a minority, probably, but we feel as though the problems exist universally.
I'm getting a Sensation, it's on the way. I'm keeping my G2X until the update. Now that I have the clarity of no more screw ups in my future, I can wait. If they get the bugs out of this phone it will be the best thing out there. And I'll come back in a flash.
Fix it, don't recall it.

Dual boot manager

So I saw this app on Lifehacker:

Has anyone tried this on our phones? I'm very interested in using it but I'm not going to buy it if it's known to not work.

Gflam 1 of the co developers of this is my rom partner. We did a rom called sourcery together. i finally put recovery on today and was suppose ot work on getting him the info to make it compatible. But he was busy. Ill post as soon as its supported. and i do some testing for him.
That be cool.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
Wow, that would be awesome! Not yet officially supported on our phone according to link. Seems like it would be pretty buggy running on SD.
Somewhat on topic, this is one of the reasons I got an LG phone. I work with VMware products in my job and they've partnered with LG to work on giving users the ability to run a business and personal accounts simultaneously through virtualization. Not 100% sure if it is actually a whole other ROM but it looks like it from the demo. If it's true virtualization for phones, I could see you being able to run multiple ROMs.
Check it out. Might be another option when it comes out:
http://communities.vmware.com/commu.../lg-vmw-partnership-follow-up-with-demo-video
The dev on this sent me an email and said they are working on this device and one of his guys is testing it out now. It should be available soon. The dev was also very helpful and very quick to respond to my email.

i have tried the v.1.2 of this app and had no luck just error when it was trying to create a boot.img of the rom i was wanting to install. i'll guess i'll go back to doing a nandroid backup of the other rom and just reflash the backup when i want to use it. at least that way works. i was really looking forward to giving this app a go as well, just a shame really..........sudeki300

For me, it worked when i was restoring from a nandroid (only worked once).

one of the miui roms got 4.0. http://rootzwiki.com/topic/13939-rom-miui-port-miuius-galnet-miuiandroid-updated-01152012/. i have not tried it yet. if you are that desperate..download go launcher.and go locker and get the ICS themes..they are pretty accurate in its look.
I believe LG has ICS releases slated for Q2 of 2012. Not soon, I imagine.
thanks for the feedback everyone. im not super pressed about it but im excited to try it out when it hits our phones!

Yup. It's like putting the ICS transition animations on a gingerbread rom and labeling it ICS.
They probably have a few things from ICS on it, but it really isn't ICS. I think it is just a publicity stunt for them to get people to download their roms.
would appear to have more than just the transitions, but you guys know best surely.
Like I said , I call it what it is called at Galnet. I am not going to call it something else because you don't like how it makes a few people react.

Oh I'm more with you than anything actually. It's more like a hybrid of ICS and gingerbread. Was just using an example.
T-mobile eol'd the phone and they might eol themselves. Lg will still update this phone, I don't know when, what version, when, how, or who will be the first to drop it, but one of the moderators on lg forum kinda hints at it.
http://www.lgforum.com/forum/boards...goes-black-after-being-plugged-into-a-charger
If you read the last post from Lg Product Pro, it kinda hints at it.
Motorola atrix 4g has a working cm9.

[FUNDRAISER] New P920 for berni987654321

So, it seems one of our top devs, @berni987654321 has lost his phone...I guess that, if everyone helped a little, we'd be able to get him another device, so that he can resume developing, if he wishes so... Just my noobish 2 cents here, but let me hear what you think...If 50 people donated $7.00 each, we'd be able to grab one from swappa, or maybe less elsewhere... I can't develop (yet), but I'd like to help those who can and gave us the fruit of their efforts.
Mods, move/edit/contact me if neeeded...
Maybe he wanted to lose it/move on? I have only had this phone for a year and it is my first smart phone, but if I was a programmer/developer I would want to keep up with the newest devices...if only a new 3D phone was on the horizon. Who knows, maybe the next thing will be 3D Google Glasses...

just to make this clear I DIDN'T want to lose my o3d,
I would'nt get a much less powered phone if so, my current device is just borrowed.
Of course it wasb't just fun to have this phone but it is also great to see
something new is working on a phone which is that unsupported by a company
which could do much for their users.
Of course I want to move on with a new phone but that doesnt mean that I wouldn't
develop for an older phone
