Don't shoot the messenger!*!*! - T-Mobile LG G2x

Ok guys so I might not seem "reputable" Ive always been more of an observer of the forums..instead of putting my 2cents in about everything..yes I work for a T-Mobile authorized dealer for the past 3yrs..4yrs @ Verizon b4 this.. every so often LG/Samsung/Nokia reps stop in.. today it was LG who I haven't seen since the g2x launch.. obviously I asked questions.. he told me that the g2x was written w/code for 2.3 to be updated soon after release.. the problem was the code was written wrong..and thats why the phone reboots..because it thinks theres an update so it shuts down..and it took an extremely long time to find where the problem was and write proper code.. they didn't want to take the chance of releasing an update without being 100% sure, obviously consumers wouldn't be happy with a faulty update..he continued to say it is absolutely a software issue..he also said the update will be in two parts.. the 1st is a software patch to fix the reboot issue and the 2nd is gingerbread. He took down my email address so he can send me the update when he gets it next week..so that way reps can test it out and start pushing it in stores.. in my opinion I don't see the update coming in the next few weeks to customers if an LG reps g2x isn't even updated yet..and is barely starting to roll out for reps to test out.. sorry for the long post..and once again..DONT SHOOT THE MESSENGER! LOL

Bang!!! Sorry had tooo

Cool if it's true, meh if it's not.

The only ones I trust less than CSR (as they are just telling all of us what they are told to say) is reps.... sorry just like salesmen if there mouths are moving they are lying.

Just putting this out there...I talked to the lawyer from the class action lawsuit. Its very legit. With that hitting Tmobile/LG if there ever was a real update(and I don't think there was) I bet it is now going to be even slower getting to us.

I am rep for technical care and I am currently testing the 2.3 rom on my personal G2X. From what I can tell so far, it is pretty much in the same state + some stability improvements that came with the leaked rom a couple months ago.

Hopefully this update won't mess up with my non-reboot G2x.
Seems like baseband patch first and OS the next.

actually this makes sense.
1) people who have said their phones said there was an update after phone rebooted .. this has been mentioned several times so that part makes sense.
2) you are the second person from a different source today to mention an update for next week.
obviously its probably just getting to tmobile next week but at least thats something.
Let us know how it goes. if you dont see an internal update by next week than well know thats its probably not trust worthy. but what he said makes sense regarding the update stuff.
and hopefully the gb update fixes gps and wifi
thanks man at least its something.

I can say my battery life appears to be better, no random reboots yet.
I've also previously experienced what I call hibernate which is where I have to press the power key 12 times to unlock the screen. Seems to run a bit smoother as well.
Problems so far are the camera sucks now. When the screen goes to standby after I load a webpage and I unlock the screen, it reverts to the previous page.
I have had a few occasions where I have had to click a link like 10 times to get data to load the page. That all I've notices so far within the 24 hours I've been running the update.

I can say that it does come from verizon and its not your everyday cs rep or a store employee. I have known the person since I'm 5 (41 Now) and they have been with verizon 15 years and has worked his way up from tech to a nice position.
I can also add that they were looking into making the maintenance update part of the GB upgrade but were having issues with it so as of now they are two seperate ota's.
Im sure some of the devs here can check and see if this has any validity. I cant get him to confirm a GB date but he said nothing will be set for GB until current issues are dealt with..

All updates have issues so it's going to be pretty much unavoidable. Factory resets can generally clear up most of them though.

My theory on the pending update

Hi guys,
Nothing scientific about my theory, but I dont think we will see an update until after the sensation comes out. T-Mobile knows there are a great number of people annoyed with the bugs the G2x has, and some of these people might be willing to jump to the sensation.
If the G2x update came out prior to the sensation release, it might actually hurt sensation sales because G2x satification would rise.
Just a thought, could be totally wrong.

the g2x is tmobiles flagship phone... you really think they are stalling the update on purpose?
i dont see how it would hurt sensation sales anyway, the phones are so different... i didnt want to wait for a sensation because of many other reasons...
The GB update comes out in the summer, which isn't here yet (6/21).
The sensation is out before so your theory is "true" one way or another.
Wait... what?
T-Mobile already made their money for the people who bought the G2x. A lot of people who will jump ship will still be within they're return period in which case Tmo doesnt make any more money off that same person buying the sensation.
Of course there are those who will jump ship outside of their return period, selling their G2x themselves. In that case tmo does make a little extra cash but I doubt their counting on that. I dont think the update has anything to do with the pending G2x release.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but Tmo's real money maker is the monthly plans. They care not about selling this device or that device or delaying this update or that update on purpose.

According to well placed Ninjas at T-Mobile, the update should hit sometime "early this week". People have been told to keep refreshing the software update screen on their device starting today.

LOL, I have seen this play out several times on the Nexus One Forum.
1. After several days of people posting about checking and several faults alarms.
2. Someone will actually get the up-date and not know enough to do a logcat.
3. More reports and claims of faults alarms, then screen shots will start.
4. Finally someone will actually post a link to the update.zip
5. Then a bunch of Noobs jump the gun, flash update, and loose root and custom recovery.
6. After a couple of hours someone competent will create a rooted, deodext Rom that can be flashed from recovery without bloat and everyone can be happy
Patience is key

rofl. I love it.
To me, it can make sense to wait or to just release it. They obviously have a brand new phone that needs an update. That is hurting them, money wise, more then just releasing the update.
Although you may have people hold out for the Sensation. Either way you have some people who have a G2x now, looking to buy a G2x or Sensation, and some who got pissed, sold the phone, and moved to Verizon.
I always believe to fix the problem as soon as possible. The longer it goes on the deeper the cuts.
My G2x is fantastic though on CM7. So while I may benefit from the update indirectly, I'm not sitting by watching the clock for it.
Will I have to unroot my G2X in order to get official GB update?

T-Mobile/LG releasing G2X information in a Few Days (not another rumor thread)

check tmo news.com right now.....unable to post link!
LG has continued to stick to it’s message of working fast and furious to push out a T-Mobile G2x Gingerbread update that contains various bug fixes. The problem is right now their message is something along the lines of “we know you are frustrated and we’re understanding so we hope to have some information to tell you soon.” What’s soon? Is it two days or two weeks as it’s already been a month that the G2x has been gone from T-Mobile.com. The time to tell us something has come and gone, now we’re moving into impatience.
Tonight’s information shows that LG hopes to deliver some information about the update in the next few days but not necessarily the update itself. As you can see in the Tweet above there is no indication that the “next few days” means an actual software release. So G2x owners are stuck playing the waiting game yet again. While I understand that neither T-Mobile nor LG wants to give a target date and miss it, perhaps it’s better than not saying anything at all.

Maybe a light at the end of the tunnel? I won't hold my breath, but still...

That message does not sound good to me. I believe they are working hard on it but it almost sound as if there having some problems with it. Doesn't look good. Glad I have a bug free G2X because I don't think there fixing anything.

If they weren't having issues with it then I assume it would be out by now...? I think this was just sent out tonight to help ease the minds of those like us in the forums. Not that I feel better or worse but at least it's some form of "Yes, we know" -Just my opinion of course.

lg and tmobile are upstanding and wouldnt never lie about stock or anything.
oh hey by the way i have a great deal for the first lucky person to contact me.
i have this bridge i am selling real cheap. its not made by lg or on tmobile its a good deal.
While I love my g2x, I can honestly say that I have never seen such a high end phone get pulled so quickly. LG borked it bog time and now the consumers pay. So T-Mobile exchanges the phone for a lower specification phone and expects us to pay MORE money for the so called "upgrade" to the Sensation. Personally I am pissed how this has been handled!

A lot of the stores are selling them when they have been asked not to. Why? Stores have to meet sales metrics. If you have a new customer signing up and they want the G2x, would you really tell them no?

lol no stores have been "asked not to sell" g2x's.
I dont know where you guys get all this crazy info from.
I have not seen one official email telling myself, or any other store in my region to not sell G2X's. (although we havent been getting our stock replenished for about 3 weeks now. we still have 2-3 in stock, but due to the recent price hike no one is really interested in the phone)
Bro think logically here...if it was recalled and they continue to sell them, and someone with a buggy phone found that out and could prove it, don't you think T-Mobile would end up losing alot more money with all the legit lawsuits then they would eating the cost of the recalled and discontinued g2x? Once again it hasn't been recalled?

Lawl. This means that T-mobile customers will only see it by late October or early November.
Hopefully by then, the SGS2 will be released on T-Mobile. This is ridiculous. They must have hired just one person PART-TIME working on this.

People are getting bored. I hope the update hits soon. At least we would have something meaningful to post about.

Quit yer *****ing people

Go to any forum and they complain about the update... Every single phone I've had... People want it, but expect no issues lol.... No green status bar? Oh no, lol. Imo the rom rocks, especially gps and signal...
Thanks lg. I love this phone...
fix for green status bar
well unfortunately people are going to ***** about anything and everything especially since forums like these give complainers and whiners a voice to do so. some of the thing people ***** about with their phone is out right silly like i saw one person complain that it was about .5 sec lag on his phone and wanted the dev to fix it.
I agree. So far, the update has fixed all of my complaints about the phone. No more wacky battery readings, GPS is very fast (faster than any phone I've had before), and I get about 7.4 megs down over 4G. The only bug I've noticed is that, when disabling/enabling WiFi, the screen will become unresponsive until I hit the back button. Strange, but I'm also using Go Launcher which may be causing the problems.
LG finally delivered and we've got the two "big names"--CM7 and MIUI--on the G2X as well. I have no regrets about buying this phone.

The G2x is a stock gingerbread phone. Stock gingerbread has a status bar that changes to green when connected to Google services, is it that big a stretch to expect that feature? But that is far from a big deal, the main gripe seems to be that LG has been presumably working on this update since before launch, and the best they can come up with is a slightly updated baseband? No updated kernel? Reports of people still having problems (though not as severe) since the update?
The problem with waiting this long to update is that people expect major improvements. Hell, I was halfway expecting 2.3.4 for taking this long. Say what you want about HTC, but they usually release at least multiple bugfix ota's for their phones within the time it took LG to release 1.
I don't see it as whining as much as failure to reach expectations. Besides, even if it was, isn't this thread just whining about the whiners?

i do miss the camera too but if i was one of those people that had the reboot and freez issues i say eff the cam and fix the issues ....man i member when i had the vibrant it was so buggy and they didnt put the update till even longer than lg did...... i mean i had my rooted by that time but unrooted people didnt really get the update for a long while.......im sure someone will get the camera issue to gb worked out ....theres actually a post about that in here somewhere.........
I'm one of the few around here that doesn't do too much complaining, but this update is bs! As miniscule as this update was... It should have been out.

Ya it was ok, but again I'm sure a dev one day will figure it out. Although the camera had nice options it was slow.
And for all we know it was causing mad issues they couldn't iron out..

exactly, vibrant was forever long for a update. And it was again, the same, not perfect, either was the n1 updates. Regardless there will always be bugs like the green signal bars which xboarders already fixed.
I had the Green Status Bar Fix up a few days ago... It's in the "Themes" section.
See this -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1186834
How do you spend 3 months on an update that breaks more crap than it fixes??! I'm going to have to wait until CM7 gets A2DP - if and whenever that will be.

New update coming soon maybe?

Spoke with a T-Mobile tech support for the problems I was having with my phone I asked about when we could expect a software update like AT&T and Verizon got he told me between the first and 2nd week of March but take it with a grain of salt but we'll see
Please realize T-Mobile employees usually have no clue what they are talking about. I'll take that comment with the entire great salt lake...
Always depends on who you talk to. Occasionally you get that rare gem who is actually passionate about what they're talking about. Or you get someone who just tells you what you want to hear.
That said the timeline seems to be right for a March release.

Updated both my wife's and my G4 hen it came out. The down side was the whole bootloader unlock wiping the phone. I made the mistake of not backing up my contacts prior to updating a d had to restore my lollipop backup so I could back them up to my sd card and then go bacl yo Marshmallow. The other thing that I don't like is the way Marshmallow handles sd cards, fyi, there is no adoptable storage on LG/T-Mobile's version of Marshmallow and the sd card fix does not work on Marshmallow and all Titanium backups will need to be put on internal or it won't backup cause it will tell you that the backup on external sd is not writeable. Over all I liked it just switched phones cause I thought my G4 had major issues last weekend and neither me nor T-Mobile could get my phone to make or receive calls to or from my wife, daughter,. dispatcher, or my boss after 3 and a half hours of trying at a store and I had to have a working phone so I upgraded to the V10 and love it.

I don't think I've ever owned a phone that didn't get at least a tiny update after 4 months!

Yeah I here you... Hell when I bought my nexus 6, it upgraded 10x before I got it out of t-mobile... Lol. Granted, it didn't go through the t-mobile upgrade process. But I think everyone else has been updated... And we still have ****ty connection and can't use finger print w/ a case on...

Seriously, are people that impatient. You know mm will be available real soon and the g4 already got it. You don't think They are saving the fixes for one big update? Why fix something in lollipop if you can fix it 2 weeks later and bring marshmallow too? Not to mention I don't seem to have all these issues some complain about.

Lucky you I guess. I use my phone for real world purposes. One issue I have is the heat this device creates when filming video. My 6 that old had a school performance and while filming it got so hot that my device started stuttering and it ruined the video. To each his own I guess. Looks like my S7 will be here tomorrow. I'll let you know how it goes

Sounds like a defective unit. I would dump it too then. My v10 stays cooler than any device I've ever owned. It barely gets warm shooting video. Sorry to hear that.

You cannot call people impatient when you're not experiencing the problems they're facing. If you are and you're still patient, then you can have something to say.

Unless you have magic psychic abilities, no one else knew about his video problems till after the impatient post... Odd thing about these forums... They post in chronological order...

I was speaking more to those who are just complaining about updates. The phone will be 4 months old in 2 days, and marshmallow is pretty much guaranteed within the month.

He said "all these issues some are complaining about".
Keywords for you: All. IssueS. Some.
Problems everybody hoping a fix with marshmallow updates.

If you are going to quote people, why don't you try to put in context... Do you work for Fox news? What he said was, and I quote "I don't have all these issues some are complaining about" end quote... Keyword for you "I" meaning himself... Other keywords "who cares" and "learn context"...

Your context changed nothing. Himself. So, and?
Who cares? You obviously do. So much that you came back with such a desperate, pathetic reply.
Lmao, you just have yourself a super night... Keep on trying, maybe you'll come up with a valid point someday...
