should I switch my g2x out for a mytouch 4g slide?

I've been wondering if I should switch my g2x out for a mytouch 4g slide. I like the g2x but its been causing problems ... not to mention the horrible battery life
Ive always liked the mytouch brand and I believe the new slide is dual 1.2ghz Processer.

If you like the mytouch better then yes you should switch. Why keep a phone if you don't want it?
G2X CM7

I don't really think there's a reason to have a physical keyboard anymore unless your a female with long nails. A keyboard just adds more bulk to the phone. In the end, your going to have to figure out which phone suites your needs better.

It's not that I don't want the g2x. Its just too many problems you know? And an actual keyboard comes in handy sometimes. I'll do come more research on it, I don't thing the new slide is that thick. I could be wrong.
What I really want is my iPhone 4 back.. I was usingg it for almost a year and then it took a dive in the lake.. now it boots up to the iTunes logo if I have it plugged in but then halfway through a restore, I know its not totally fried cuz then it wouldn't even turn on.

Since I have T-Mobile it will be expensive to buy the same 32gig I had.
Maybe the next iPhone will launch on T-Mobile

I like the Slide better than the G2x. In fact, now I like most phones more than it. I haven't noticed *too much* that I lost .3 inches of screen. I can't say that i would like it more if LG actually released a proper update though.

That screen looks alot smaller than just 0.3. I don't think I could never go lower than 4"

If the screen is the same as the mytouch 4g then it isn't a big problem for me. Besides I heard it has a pretty good resolution as well
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App

Traded a nib g2x for a myt4g slide, its the wifes. I still have my g2x.
Camera goes slide easy
Screen on g2x looks and feels much bigger
Battery is tie. I've never had bad battery on any android I've had
Its not thick for having a keyboard
Sense sucks
G2x blows doors off the slide at this point
No perm root
Hate physical buttons
Speakers are same as g2x.
G2x looks better
Meh, your choice op but id keep the g2x. Get a hardware bug free one, slap cm7 on there and be happy..

You should just wait for the Hercules

Yea dude that phone looks sick, that's definitely my next, hopefully September!!! And to the op I say if u ain't happy with your g2x screw it get the mytouch slide it is a nice phone, but me I would keep g2x, now it would be a different story if the Hercules was out

I thought about it until I read how crappy the screen is. Instant no no.
G2x with CM7 and faux kernel. NONSENSE!!!!

I don't know. Each blog I've read states something different but now that the device is close to being released, none of them are speculating. Everything spec wise is just a rumor at this point. I asked my step father who sometimes knows these things but he didn't know. He said he would ask someone who might though. He did tell me that Samsung would be releasing the phone on every carrier on the same day or atleast that's what they want to do.
In my opinion, I think every GSII variant in the US will have the Exynos CPU. I would think they want each region to have the same CPU.
The battery cover on that Hercules looms like its brushed metal.

Nexus Prime Hands-on Video Released - It's Curved

The SAMSUNG MOBILE UNPACKED 2011 event will be held on October 18th in HongKong.
The device has a curved display similar to the Nexus S. Download the SAMSUNG MOBILE UNPACKED Application for more details
You see, several sources are now confirming Nexus Prime will most likely run a dual-core 1.5GHz TI OMAP 4460 CPU along with 1280 x 720 Super AMOLED display.
It is likely to have 4.6-inch screen with 320 ppi which looks beastly enough against iPhone 4S’ 3.5-inch 960 x 640 326-ppi retina display.
Have a look at the recent shots of the Nexus Prime

I would be surprised if Samsung didn't put their Exynos in it.
But either way that design is quite revolutionary for a cell phone. It looks so sick. And knowing it's from Samsung, the quality will br top notch.
Now if only I wasn't a broke ass college student I'd definitely nab one!

lol that alone make some of us pro SmartPhone users laugh. As SamSUX and top notch quality should not even be put in same line much less paragraph. It will be just another typical Nexus based POS that is like always behind the curve as always. Just watch when it comes out it will already be outdated like iPhoney.

It's okay man, it's impossible to convince people once they become fanboys of one thing. I love HTC too, probably will always stick to HTC. But I gotta give props to where it's due!

Im with you.. I used to jump from HTC to another
HTC Pro -> HTC Hero - > HTC Google N1
and I wanted another HTC but at least in my 3G band frequency (850) the best option in the market was IMO the Galaxy S (at the time I got it) and now the Galaxy S2 which I have. Everything was perfect (except no flash on the S and slowness I didnt know existed until using a dual core cell) but I still missed and currently miss the HTC feel to the cell phones with their designs and metal body at least on the N1.
I cant wait for the Nexus Galaxy or is it Nexus Prime after all? Im gonna go from my S2 to that once the price is right

Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium

I use Hellfire pheonix with Trinity 1500mhz kernal. Its a monster now. Having stock is a bummer for any device. Some hate bulky sense. Some hate the ugly moto blur. Many get bored of touchwiz and that's just ui. Once you free your device it's a matter of hardware and manufacturers willingness to cough up source. LG is stingy with source but that hasn't stopped the devs. We still get good stuff. Thank them! Look at the hardware and decide based on that is my opinion. (If you plan on flashing roms that is)
"I'm just a hat tryin to get ahead"-whozilla.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA

I would advise you to keep it simply because you will not get much in return for it. In fact, LG has officially discontinued the G2x and Tmo has sent out an internal message that they will no longer sell or support this phone. In addition, current customers will not be given any refunds. Exchanges for the G2x will ONLY be the My Touch 4g -which LG claims is comparable. I do not see the My Touch 4g being worth it. However, as you will likely hear from others in the forum, with the right ROM (and that means different things to different people), the G2x is still a fantastic phone. Most GB based roms are running very smoothly and there are a few ICS roms running pretty well that are still being tweaked. I'm pretty satisfied with mine since I rooted it.....best of luck to you thought!

There are some better phones, but it's a good phone for it's price. You can't ask too much for a $200 phone, but it works like a $300 or even $400 one

Thanks everyone for replying, I just wanted to make sure it wasn't hardware that made the g2x suck. I agree I do like sense and am currently running a sense rom. I am also debating my touch 4G slide. Both are around the same price.
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA

If your gonna choose tmobile the g2x is a hell of a good phone, even better when rooted and custom rom'd from xda!
The one gripe i only ever had was it coulda used at least 1gb of ram which would have future proofed it till at least the g4x/ one s came thru, still thats a minor complaint and i still love owning my g2x as a backup phone. Dont think ill ever sell it just cuz it is too beast of a phone to get rid of and my kids also cant get enough of it lol
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

It's alright, could be better though. If you're looking for a 100% reliable phone, then this one might not be for you.

I previously had the Nexus S which on paper is inferior to this phone. That being said, this phone in reality is buggy, I have had issues with it on multiple ROMs, the camera pictures are quite poor, and the battery drains quite fast (not overclocked)
The good is the 4G which I enjoy the faster speeds, and even though the camera is disappointing the video makes up for it.
This is my opinion, hope it helps.

I liked the phone so much, I bought a second used for dirt cheap on cowboom.com. This phone is a beast that T-Moble and LG failed to work right. It's dualcore with sufficient memory. It has a Tegra 2 chip making gaming a reality with games like GTAIII and Zen Pinball. It does hdmi out with ease. All this in a sleek body with a decent screen. Any popular GB ROM is a go on this device. The only thing that could make it better is quadcore, 1GB RAM, and Tegra 3. Here's to G4X!

Getting an s2 skyrocket.

Got an iPhone 4 from work today that's almost new and I'm trading it for a like new skyrocket tonight. I'm still keeping my infuse though.
I'm excited. While I love my infuse that s2 should be fast as hell!
Thoughts? Who owns one?

Why do you want a Skyrocket over the regular SGH-i777? Is it size, or Lte compatibility?
Edit: Correction, why DID you?
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda premium

I have a clue about s2 variants screen size.
S2 i9100 is 4.3"
S2 skyrocket i727 AT&T ?
S2 i777 AT&T ?
Specs says they are 4.3" gsmarena 4.5"

It's 4.5 Super Amoled Plus. Same as the Infuse.
I wanted the Skyrocket for the faster cpu, double the ram and double the storage. Plus LTE is amazing fast. Like wow fast.

I really prefer 4.5" than a little better hardware (i727 against i777)

Is the resolution the same on the skyrocket? To me resolution > screen size but anything less than 4.3 is really get too small. I think the new gs3 with a 4.5 inch screen would have been absolutely perfect!

I like the specs of the Skyrocket, but it seems development is better for the i777. But Ima do some more research. My upgrade's in August, so its gonna be one of the 2.
I don't like the look of the GSIII. That curve annoys me and I can't stand the button layout. I guess I'm just picky, considering the phones capabilities, its an awesome, but I'm gonna pass on it
Keeping my Infuse for testing purposes and may consider loaning it out for devs

IMO, iPhones are for those who want to look like they fit in with "the crowd". Android to me is for THEEE Individual. Customization, personalization, and self expression.
Say a room has 10 people full of a crowd of people ranging from say 15-40, mixed genders. 6 with iPhones, 4 with various Androids. I can almost guarantee that the iPhone users will have the same if not similar looks on their screens. Same messy apps too close together, and generic wallpapers.
The 4 Androids would be catered to reflect the Individuals who own them, even if they are non rooted, expect different home launchers on some and varied wallpapers.
This is just a random scenario n again, just my opinion

You should find the definition of "literally"cause I don't think it means what you think it means. They are very much not the same phone.
Also I would have preordered the sgs3. It's worth the $50 more over the sgs2 skyrocket.

ah yes. good deal then. the threads are all starting to merge in my sleep deprived mind.
also att's upgrade policy sucks.

Skyrocket HD is the perfect phone imo. But was cancelled before release :crying:
Just the same look as S2 or infuse, but with 1280x720 4.65" screen :victory:
I think i777 share roms with i9100. So, dev is much bigger than on i727.
edit: corrected hd screen size.

the skyrocket hd was a 4.65" screen. sameone thats in the galaxy nexus. its also the galaxy s2 hd in korea.

You are right
The gnexus is a nice phone. But... onscreen buttons make it loss half inch or more. Also knowing the hard burn-in problem that affects amoled screens, that buttons will be printed forever :crying:
Bad choice by google imo.

My infuse sits in a cubbyhole on my desk. I might sell it. I would regret it if I did I think so I haven't.
My skyrocket has been such a great phone so far. I really love it.
The nightly cm9 builds are nice, I even played with cm10 a few hours ago. Amazing things are happening for this phone.
I don't miss my infuse and I recommend that everyone who can upgrade should. Its nice having such power. Dual core 1.8ghz whips that 1.6 single all to hell. The double ram helps too.
Thanks to all the great developers here, I loved your builds.

Several of us that were using the Infuse are there.

I personally have gone with the Nexus 4 (Optimus G's brother) not only because i love the look of it but also because of all the developing that's going on with it currently. I can't speak about the OG development but what I've been in terms of development for the N4 is incredible.

Mostly the design. I've had my fun with a brick looking phone (Infuse). You don't really appreciate the curves until you hold it in your hand and get a feel for it. The glass also is curved at the edges like the HTC One and makes swiping feel very nice. The etched back glass looks incredible in the right lighting too. Overall the phone is just simply sexy. The price is absolutely unbeatable and being the first to get updates is really nice too although I'll be going the custom route which this phone as at least 10 different ROMs already.

N4 has 3, 4 & 5 and with a different kernel you can increase the battery life pretty well though it will never be easily removable.

If money isn't that much of an issue, I would definitely look to the HTC One for beauty or maybe the SIV since there will almost definitely be a huge following for that phone..

+1 for the GNote....once you use it...you're hooked.
Remember, "Once you go Note...4" is a joke".

Checked out some reviews on the note and all others mentioned and all it did was make me want them all
The HTC one is sexy but the note is the one I've been eye balling since its introduction

I wouldn't suggest it....HTC is terrible with development. They have crap source...and even had a DMCA takedown on the HTC msn8660 official cyanogenmod source. Not to mention you not only have to unlock the bootloader but also s-off the device if you wanna be able to flash roms away from a computer. HTC one x had a big problem with achieving s-off for a couple months too....
HTC one looks good as do most htcs, but if you want dome aosp deving its def not the device to go for IMHO
Btw, long time no talk guys I'm still trying to decide on my next device as I'm due for an upgrade as well...

I'm personally leaning towards the SIV... about the same size as the Infuse, except a 5 inch screen+quad core+2gb ram....

I love my infuse but upgrade time came about two weeks ago and I went for the note2 and its awesome!!!! once you start using it you really appreciate the size of the screen it just makes doing everyday things on the phone easier and more enjoyable. I was also on the fence about waiting for the s4 but I went for the bigger screen and battery

I'm up for upgrade too and was looking at the HTC phones. I like the solid metal feel, but I guess I should reconsider. What would you recommend especially regarding development friendliness? (Samsung? LG? I know the Nexus is great for that) I'm not opposed to waiting for a while. I am extremely content with the active and awesome development work on here.
Is the large size of the Note 2 inconvenient at all? My beloved Infuse already takes up most of my pocket

I'll likely get a nexus4 or an iPhone. I'm tired of waiting for 3rd parties to support devices when the motivation is to make you buy a new one.
My wife has an atrix 4g, and still on stock 2.3. It's buggy to say the least.
I have a nexus 7, and didn't even feel the need to root it until recently. Stock actually works, and doesn't leave you wanting much more.
Sure, our infuses still work. We can flash firmware beyond 2.3, but the lack of official support means that some things are broken and will never be fixed... HDMI, 720p, etc.

Besides a nexus...Samsung seems to be the best, although I've read good things about Sony as well...

Been debating getting the N2 for a while.. Just not sure if I want to get it 5 months into its life. But honestly, compared to the GS4, the only thing really better to me at least is the 1080p display which is more of just a number selling point almost. Been out of contract for like 3 months now and getting ready to pull the trigger...

Blackberry Z10 or Q10.
I was playing with the BB Z10 the other day and it looks like they have a winner on their hands.
