I know these two phones are the same essentially but since there are two different forums I'm assuming that roms and kernel on g2x dont work on optimus 2x?

It might be an easy port since its the same exact hardware minus the radio/antenna, but as far as simply flashing a G2x rom on the O2x then its a problem. It should not work unless its been modified.

Ah ok, cos it seems that g2x are getting the better devs than optimus 2x

Here's a thread warning about flashing an O2X rom onto a G2X. I'm assuming the warning goes both ways.

I'm sorry to hear. I can say that the O2x rom actually looks pretty interesting though. I'd love to try it out.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
o2x roms will work on g2x phones BUT it also flashes a baseband from the o2x that will jack your phone up wont allow you to make calls and there is no way to repair this yet on the g2x
I would really love to try stock optimus2x rom it looks slick kinda surprised no one has ported one over yet
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
same thing is going on with the vibrant and sgs4g their the same phones but if you flash roms from vibrant to sgs4g or sgs4g to vibrant it will brick your phone but the devs found a way so they can flash roms from those phones it will be nice to do something like that between o2x and g2x.
o2x roms and themes are very cool

It's just touchwiz or something really similar. You could replicate it with CM7's Captivated theme and a custom launcher.

lost of good luck, haha... just curious if it is even possible cause if I remember a serious team of rom cookers/builders couldnt get sense ported to and samsung phone cause it is a totally different phon/ hardware/processor... its just not likely if I remember right. But serious good luck to you cause that would save me from getting the sensation.

I don't know about seeing a ROM with Sense 3.0 on my G2x but I can tell you right now. If I can't get a G2x that isn't so buggy I will be getting a HTC device with Sense 3.0. I have been through 4 G2x's in the past 2 days and all of them have serious bugs or defects.

Sleep of death. The screen goes completely black and wont wake up from stand by...no matter how many times I press the on/off bottom. So taking battery off fixes it, but it happens many times.

I have an evo and my ns4g and I'm just curious as to why there is such a lack of roms for nexus s 4g. There's tons of roms for evo but very few for ns4g. Dev support Is great quick to fix issues but little variety. Or is there somewhere I'm not looking because I've searched endlessly here and on Google and androidforum but I only find a couple of roms

People who make ROMs for other phones generally want an AOSP experience, which we as Nexus owners have out of the box.
What are you looking for in a ROM that your not finding exactly?
Also take a read here, as this was previously discussed:

SK4G is unsupported both by devs and Samsung. Aren't you guys still stuck with Froyo or something? Either way even if you get GB you'll never see anything past GB unless you get CM9, which is highly unlikely.
MT4G has awesome Sense ROM's, a solid MIUI ROM, and a very stable CM7 ROM with CM9 looking within weeks.

What he said
I actually traded my sk4g for a Mytouch and its completely with it. Yes a keyboard its nice but there's no development, and the Mytouch has a bigger screen and typing/swyping is a lot easier that on the sidekick screen.

Getting a Mytouch 4G for a Sidekick 4G is like getting an Audi for Kia (I don't specifically have anything against Kia, but I doubt anyone will argue that a Kia is a better car than an Audi). Don't ask questions. TRADE! Trade and run before your friend realizes their mistake.
I played with a Sidekick 4G for a few minutes and it was a joke. Minus a physical keyboard a Mytouch 4G is better in every way.

G2x is soooo much better. My younger brother has a Galaxy S 4G, and it's a nice phone and all, but there is literally no development going on for it anymore. No Vanilla, MIUI, or ICS. G2x is wayyy faster although I really like the Galaxy S 4G's Camera.

Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA
I actually just got my Samsung Galaxy S 4g replaced from Tmobile with the G2X. I used the SGS4G for awhile.
I don't regret it one bit, this phone is a beast in comparison. I'm not even using ICS yet, and I'm so happy with my new device. Significant upgrade in my opinion, and as others have said ROM development is much more active.
The devs are trying to work out ICS, but nothing close to even "kind of" functional.
IMO the screen was a little better and voodoo sound is cool, but a majority of the ROMs are customized versions of a stable base. MIUI is also being worked on, however the significant gains in just about every other area out shine 2 perks. Can't comment on battery life yet, my G2X has "new toy syndrome" at the moment.
Bottom line, stuck my SGS4G in the box and sent it back this morning.

Sent from my LG-P920 using xda premium
I actually own both..I loved my atrix 4g...I wanted another when I added this line but they weren't available anymore. That being said I like my thrill better mainly due yo larger screen and old eyes..both are fast thrill has 3d..atrix has an extra partition with partial desktop Linux installed that allows you to plug in HDMI to HDTV and have Linux on TV and phone is mouse pad and touch keyboard.. very cool..so I guess the answer depends on what you like to do with your phone.
Also atrix has unofficial cm9 I used to build mine from source and yes it also has 1 gb of ram..it isn't slow if you run custom roms

Lol I mean cm9 and the Linux TV was what grabbed my attention but not only that the fact it will also get ICS screams to me that it will race right past the thrill once both are on ICS ill be trading my friend so ill still have access to the phone as I should really really like to see the final product after ICS is out and miui is available

Not to mention miui is available on atrix. My wife runs notachrix it is gingerbread but very stable so I don't have to worry about her having probs. Ics roms still have 2d driver issues and she plays those damn farm games..lol...you will Like it just pm me before you unlock the boot loader if it is not already done..it is a pain in the butt.
Sent from my LG-P920 using xda premium
Not to get off track here but what is so good about miui? I have never seen anything there that made me think anything but Iphone.
Well, I own both, so:
Atrix on stock gingerbread sucks. Also, it feels flimsier than the P920. My atrix is currently in the drawer, waiting for parts...Case scratches easily, too. On the nice part: ICS 4.0.4 rocks, but you get no fingerprint support...Phone fast as hell, especially when overclocked @1450MHz....
As for the P920:
Bulky, but sturdier than the atrix, screen looks better, despite lower resolution...Camera is better too (but IMO the flash on the atrix is better)...P920 also feels faster, be it stock or overclocked...Wireless communications also seem better.Negative side: Battery lasts shorter on my P920 than the atrix
Shortening it: if you want a developer's phone, get the atrix, if you want a nice-looking, feature-rich phone, then LG it is.
