Rename forum section - T-Mobile LG G2x

Just an FYI, more than T-Mobile now carries the G2x (P999). Wind Mobile in Canada is one, they have got it before the major carriers. I was about to post an issue about this phone in this section, but see just about everyone is talking about the T-Mobile one.
Perhaps writing P990 and P999 in the respective section titles would be more correct.

Somebody brought this up before. Unfortunately, they decided to call the Canadian O2x the G2x. Nothing like confusing the masses.

Well considering the forum is named T-Mobile g2x, why would we change the name of it?

These threads aren't showing up correctly

when i click on the top of the page to search by os or manufacturer, then LG these threads don't show up...which could lead to less active threads due to not being able to find them....how do we go about fixing that? who is the main mod OP?

you mean when you search?
you must type T-mobile OR G2X in the search... sense this phone is so close to comparison to the LG optimus 2X im guessing the mod named the forum T-Mobile G2x witch is fine because anyone looking for the LG G2x im sure will stumble upon a G2x thread that will link them to the forum... good question but im sure it will be fine as it is
I cant find it either, even posted link to get it for $49 after instant rebate and free activation and free 2 day Fed X delivery on new and upgrades over in optimus 2x forums. I asked mods to move it because I couldn't find the g2x thread.

I am having the same issue. This forum does not show up in the "find your device..." search at all. I originally found it from the link in the following thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1039546
I still have to use that direct link (http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1114) to get to the forum.
I have contacted a moderator to change the name of the forum to: T-Mobile LG G2x
this should help make it easier to find the threads/forums
hope this helps
** aslo requested that a few threads be put in the G2x forum (they were still in the O2x forum)
also it does not show up in the "compact" view for the threads.

I have no idea. It pisses me off. There is no reason to NOT have another forum... THE GSM RADIOS WILL BRICK THE NEXUS S 4G, THE ROMS DON'T WORK, THE KERNELS NEED MODIFICATION... IT IS A DIFFERENT DEVICE!!!!!!!!

sorry wrong thread
...
I agree. Too easy for a newb to brick their phone. Just left Tmo and my N1 for Sprint. GO TO HELL AT& T!
When the cdma Hero first came out we at least had a sub-form dedicated to it until the number of posts grew and its own form was justified.
Seeing as all roms will need to be modified to work with the NS4G, a new forum should be created. Mods need to quit dragging their feet on this.
-Ash-
I agree that the gsm and cdma needs their own forum sections. I won't demand anything from the mods because I used to be one and have an idea on what they in through. I agree that newbs and others might accidentally flash the wrong thing and hose their phone. I am very cautious about flashing anything with this phone because of some of the horror stories i've read. There are some things that I am interested in messing with but there's nothing in the description that says which ones it does and doesn't work with. OP maybe you could change the title of this thread to something to do with requesting a separate ns4g section to reduce the confusion and people messing with the wrong flashes.
+10!
That might catch the attention of a moderator more.
who cares about the newbs. every flash on the forum is the user's responsibility. not the OP.
should the OP include the ROMs that are compatiable? yes.
will it get dual support? possibly. your first is relatively new, give it sometime to adjust
i strongly disagree with a new forum. thats like saying the G2 and Desire Z should get different forums... they both share the same forum.
like i mentioned, you're just splitting the community for a minor change. ROMs will get NS4G support (dual support is even possible.. netarchys kernel works on ns4g), give it time.

Talking about splitting the whatever. I forgot where the thread was that had a link to a google developer discussion page. I remember netarchy was saying something about it too. Anyways, there's two separate "versions" of the nexus software. Crespo and crespo4g. It was mentioned that because of gsm and cdma the two can't be merged together (for now).
Im trying to figure out where in the system files the OS looks for GSM or CDMA. The roms for nexus s will boot. No service tho. Probably really complicated in Services.jar
Uncle Jimmy says hello
ok the g2 and the dz share the same everything, the radios can be flashed willy nilly..

To whom it may concern:

Why is there not a separate section for Nexus S 4G? Having to sift through all these threads is ridiculous. Come on Admins/Mods, lets get on the ball here.
I think we need a cdma nexus section. At least to separate roms and kernels :/

It would definitely help from a users perspective, bricks are highly likely if users make a mistake.
Separate sections for CDMA and GSM versions of the same phone have been done in the past, the same should happen here.

The different versions of the same phone thing could use some rethinking anyway. Lots of forums at the top level just clutter everything up, split communities and break dev synergies.
You know what would be nice? A required selection for each thread, indicating which variant(s) it applies to and a corresponding filter for the forum view.
i agree we need separate sections but what id love to see is the addition of more roms such as miui and sense for the nexus 4g. stock is good but it would be nice to have more options.

How would separate sections change that? Separate sections would allow you to find compatible radios and roms easier and with less risk of bricking your expensive new phone.
i have to say this is probably the most disheartening thread on the forum. its sad to see that the nexus s owners were at first irritated that that sprint owners wanted a seperate forum, now i see many of those people in here, not saying it outright but wishing we were off here instead of clogging up crap. i dont blame them one bit, its just kinda sad..
I was confused at first but it is really as easy as following this simple rule.
"If the Rom or kernel doesn't mention NS4G in the thread title or first post, don't touch it."

I think u know what he meant.
But aside from that, (for ex.) I go thru the q&a section every couple days and see if I can help out with issues. This process is also confusing now with 2 phones in 1 topic. I find myself looking for other forums now with ns4g activity. I don't get what the big deal is.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk
Who actually is it that has the power to create (and creates) sections or topics?
Uncle Jimmy says hello
As a NS4G owner and a long time modder of phones....if you dont know the difference between cdma and gsm...and radios, roms, etc....then honestly gtfo take your **** back to the store and buy a jitterbug.
Simple
With that I like to thank vandamm for is valiant effort to make a ref for cdma phones...

Regardless if there is one or not seeing how your "searching" abilities are inadequate you wouldnt be able to find the phone or the countless threads or post discussing this same EXACT topic
sincerely Everyone on the forums
and your attitude makes it even better. thanks for ur useless post
someone posted today that bell canada just announced the phone. i guess you'll be able to use it on at&t. since I just finished reading that post, here's the link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1127132

Seriously, hearing people constantly ***** about people not searching is way more annoying than the people who didn't search in the first place. Is this forum so God Damn cluttered that you couldn't just help the guy and nicely remind him of the search function. Take you condescending bull**** elsewhere, we're all stocked up here.
I don't know you at all so its nothing too personal, I just hate that ****.

Well I think some of us just would prefer this site not devolve into a wasteland of repeated OMG questions like howardforums. Search is an amazing thing here - I can't think of the last time I couldn't find the answer I needed or another thread already discussing the topic by searching.
I don't disagree at all, I'm all for reminding folks to use search. The condescension is the problem. I love new members, and I want new members to become old members. If we **** down their necks right off the bat they will stop coming.
Edit: I also realize the OP is not a new member. I was just speaking in generalities.

While this is still here.... the latest radio for Cellular South Hero is 2.42.01.04.23. Cell south uses sprint towers... does someone more knowledgeable about radios believe there would be an issue with flashing the latest sprint radio?

Just tried it but it didn't work. Hmm... Oh well I found one on HTC's website maybe it will work. I will update as soon I find out if it works or not.
i love how they always say this maybe in the wrong section but...
if you think its in the wrong section than dont post it there its that easy
Love love how some people can be smart ( l )es!!!
At least I admitted that I might have messed up and asked nicely to move the post!!!
Revelation: You can flash the latest Sprint radio on a non-Sprint phone. Running the latest Sprint radio on my Cellular South phone. There is a lot of advice against it in the radio threads, but I'm fine.
