I was just looking in the Optimus 2X forum and noticed some threads about a lag fix due to a LG caused error from the factory where they are enabling Deoxpt to run on the fly instead of during boot, could be the reason we boot so quickly and also the cause of the random reboots, lock ups, and lag. Here is the thread below. can anyone confirm this?

I believe that particular bug is only on the o2x because it has an LG customized android build, where ours is pure stock (save from the camera App)

That's wrong. It's not pure stock. Essentially it's just a vanilla themed Optimus 2x build, except for the different RIL.

Can you cite your source on that, I haven't seen anywhere that supports that, everything I've seen is that its vanilla android, hence why the file structure is different from the o2x and a lot of the o2x dev stuff wont work on the g2x, not trying to sound like a d-bag, I'm genuinely curious

I have had zero reboots, zero lag, and zero lockups with my G2x... I'm extremely happy with it stock - I've rooted it but I haven't done anything else to it.
And its vanilla Android but it still has some LG customizations in it... hence why we aren't running 2.3 yet. Honestly I don't think there's a single phone BESIDES the Nexus series that has true vanilla Android.
Hrmmm...okies

3rd day with phone and so far no reboots. Do get some lag every now and again though. Kind of makes me think screen is unresponsive, but if I give it a few seconds it'll receive command. For example I'm running swype, and 2x yesterday I swyped something and like a couple seconds later it popped up what I wrote. Then again I was running paradise island in the back...hope it's just a software thing.

You should try wiping everything and installing a custom Rom or a rooted stock Rom and see if problem persists, could be a software issue. There are plenty of stock rooted gb Roms buried a few pages back in dev forum.
Check my sig. Stock roms. There is a rooted gingerbread PD98img, stock. I think it's the 3rd one,iirc.
With the phone plugged into the charger take a pic with flash on and see if your phone resets. Could be a battery issue.

That would be my recommendation. If you knew someone with another inspire you could try their battery. Actually your battery should be under warranty. If your phone is stock looking then you could probably take it to an ATT store and let them check it out and get 1 for free. Or even a call to 611 ATT support might get you a new battery for free. Just tell them it won't hold a charge and the flash causes your phone to reboot and you tried a friends battery and it fixed the issue. ATT has very understanding customer support.
It definitely sounds like a battery issue. I had a very similar issue. My phone would shut off at random times, and one thing that caused it was the camera flash. I picked up a new HTC battery on eBay for like $14, and it runs like a dream! If you cant fork over the money for the HTC brand battery, there are lots of cheaper chinese batteries for like $2 a piece. They would be good to just test and see if the battery is the issue if you cant find a buddy that could let you use a battery for troubleshooting, before you buy an HTC battery.
Absolutely! the same thing happened to me a few weeks ago. A new battery solved the issue. If you have a warranty/protection plan call up At&T and they'll take it from there.
Man, I love forums! I was just having this problem this week! I guess my brutal punishment to my battery over Winter break has cost me (I was running the phone down to 0% multiple times a day). Time to get a new battery.

Digging into the problem
I was going crazy with this problem! I wonder now what is the problem with the battery, because mine it seems like it keeps current like a good battery. Does anyoane has any "hardware-electrical" explanation?
Anyway, at least I have one solution and I am partially happy with it.

I'm assuming when you say it "keeps current" you have been using a current widget. The camera flash puts a heavy load on the battery. On an older battery, it may look like it's fine at idle or doing simple tasks, but it can no longer handle the tough tasks.
My first issue with my G2x is that when I put my phone in my pocket somtimes and I ull it out to chck for any new text or anything. It has poweed off on its own and I have to power it back on. This usually happens like 3 or 4 times a day.
Second issue is that anytime I make or receive a phone call my phone automatically has the speakerphone on. This happen been happening since day one, rather it is rooted or not.
Third is not actually with the G2x, its more to do with Tmobile.. I have had three replacement phones since I bought my G2x and I asked Tmo CC if I could get a different phone since I have had so many problems with the G2x and have had three replacements within the last two months. And they told me the only other phone I could get was the Sidekick 4G... WTF!!!!!!!! If I wanted to downgrade I would just use my G2 or G1.
Has anyone else had either of these issues, if so how can I fix it? Cuz I refuse to get the Sidekick 4G and dont want to keep having to get relacement.
With TMO it seems like you must get a little lucky. It all depends on the representative you get. I have had better success with being nice and speaking with the next in command. TMO has far surpassed my expectations many times.
What os are you running? Stock? Is it rooted? Have you tried cm7?
I was lucky and got a phone with little to no issues. I do know some folks that had the black screen of death ran cm7 and it went away.

My current G2x is rooted running Weapons 3.0 with the ICS Theme and Droid Bionic Boot Animation. But the others were stock with the Clockmod Recovery flashed to them.
I still get the problems in stock too.I ran MIUI for a while, it didn't have those problems. I installed weapon to get wifi calling. I think CM7 based roms don't suffer from the issues.

I use to have the MyTouch 4g and I had to have it replace 3 times with in a 2 month period. T-Mobile allowed me to replace it with the G2X. So I would contact T-Mobile again and talk to a supervisor. It's better to talk with them and they can help you get a better phone. All they have to do is see how many times you replace the phone. They can look it up and then help you get a new better phone. If they don't threaten to go somewhere else, i'll bet they will help then.

Lol, yea well Im going to have to do that cuz it is getting very annoying to have to turn off the speaker everytime I make or receive a call. And the random powering off is even more annoying.

For the random powering off, have you tried different roms. I'm currently using the Bionix Reloaded rom with the dragon kernel specifically for this rom. I haven't had any real issues. My phone has rebooted twice first week but it was a data issue. Mr. Apocalypse is currently working on the issue and will have a new release out soon. I haven't had any more issues after the first week. Ive had the rom for about 3 weeks.
Also, I did noticed when I used SetCpu and overclocked my phone it heated up really quickly so I had to set it back to it regular clock speeds.
Select "stay awake" in your settings/applications/development. That should help with your screen not turning on when it sleeps also know as (SOD) screen of death. Download the free app "Stay Awake" from the market and you will never have a random reboot again. Its bad on battery life but its much better then missing calls,texts,or alarm clocks.

And its not the ROM your using its the hardware LG built the phone with. I have a LG smart TV that reboots after prolonged use too. I've tried every 3rd party ROM out there and still had random reboots. The best fix I found is my prior post and I run weapon 3.0 with faux kernel.

Honestly with your problems though (as long as your wiping everything when you flash) seem like an actual problem with the phone for sure.

My HTC Inspire 4G reboots too damn much, it's been like this for weeks and am only writing this now because i have been patient but now i'm at the point of throwing this thing out of the window. I've tried many roms but no matter what it reboots, the rebooting is not constant like on a loop or something like that but i'll be either browsing, listening to music, playing games, etc and it'll reboot, it reboots more than 5-8 times a day sometimes more. As i said before i've tried many roms from Android Revolution HD, aospX 1.0.0-BR2 - 4, Unofficial Cyanogenmod 9 by PipelinerArd, Smartdroid Reloaded, and IceSense V Beta 3 and no matter what it reboots. Is there anyone that can please help me?
As i was typing this i was watching netflix on the inspire 4g and it rebooted on me again for no reason.......i swear i wanna slam this ish on the damn floor .
Try a stable Gb rom after a full wipe.
Wipe data, wipe dalvik, wipe all partitions (except sd card).
If you get a reboot, then try it without the sd card.
Sent from a dream.
I did try a stable GB rom, i tried Android Revolution HD 7.0.4. Is there a stock 2.3.3 rom for inspire 4g that i can try? I've also removed the sd card but it still rebooted. I'm currently using aospX 1.0.0 BR4.
With so many roms and still have reboots its a sign of a dying battery. Its a known symptom of a battery about to go.

My gf's has the same exact problem, and she has replaced her battery but it didnt help at all. Ive tried multiple kernels/roms but nothing helps. Im thinking it has something to do with her wifi because she says it happens almost always when she is at work or home (connected to wifi). Could flashing a different radio help this or are they strictly for data/voice/text?
I would be more willing to blame hardware for this, maybe the phone has taken water damage or been dropped. Check and clean all connections on the device (sdcard, simcard, battery, usb, wifi antenna, radio antenna). Flashing different radios is not the first route to take for fixing this problem. But if you want to do this, first start with re-flashing the current radio (obviously doing an md5 check on it while it's on the phone before doing so) and start from there.
I read a reply in another thread about this saying the sim card was the culprit and after replacing it he didnt have anymore reboots...I had her go get a new one, I'll report back if this fixes the problem or not.
Just saw this thread I have also been having reboot issues diff roms seem to help on cm9 now and it only does it a couple times a day now instead of the 7 or more like before. I have replaced the battery, flashed many diff kernels. I would love to find out the culprit next step is to tear apart the phone and check connections

Just wanted to update everyone with this problem, after my gf put her new sim card yesterday morning she hasnt had a single reboot yet...normally she would have had 10+ by now so I'm pretty confidant that was the problem.
Well i currently don't have a sim card in the phone so i only use it for everything else but a phone. what are radios for?
Oh and also i've noticed that the phone doesn't reboot while in recovery (i'm using 4ext) i've left my phone in recovery for a while because i needed to transfer a big file (over 10gb) to my micro sd and it never reboots and now everytime i need to transfer a big file to the phone i go to recovery, the reason i say this is because if it was a hardware issue wouldn't it do it anywhere including recovery. Also doesn't the phone creates a log that perhaps can help find out what the problem is?
So your phone is having reboot problems, but your not using it as a phone (not on a network, no SIM card)
Have you replaced the battery yet?

Okay, New update. Switched out my SIM card for a new one and it seems to reboot less. Key word is less; so it did not fix the reboot so I will downgrade to a more stable gingerbread Rom. Hopefully that will fix it. Just 9 months till I can get a new phone!

Glad to hear that your inspire 4g reboots less, Mine is still rebooting but it has been rebooting less ever since i installed Cyanogenmod 7.2.0. What i don't get is doesn't android creates a log file right before a crash (reboot) and shouldn't that log tell us what the problem could be?
Downloaded app so I can check the logs easier. Next restart I catch I will make sure to check the log. Can't be sure which log is the restart at this moment, but most of my close logs look to be a problem with java

Do me a favor and download from the play store and app called "Android System Info" it is free, and will give you easy access to the log files.
If you can catch your phone rebooting, try and look up the log right after it and copy and paste the info you find here.
I am still waiting for mine to reboot I put the app on mine so I could look at the log from the reboot, and since then my phone hasn't rebooted.
It's like it knows its being watched.
Alright so I picked up a Sensation 6-7 months ago from my T-Mobile dealer. Ever since I picked it up, I took a break from the flashing/rooting scene.
In May/June, when the official ICS update was released, I installed it to see how it ran before I went full force into the rooting scene once again. Ever since I downloaded it, my phone will restart at random times. It's starting to become very frustrating especially when I use my phone for mostly business purposes. It ONLY started this AFTER I installed the official ICS update.
So onto the next step. What I've done soo far is as described
-tried different batteries
-formatted several SD cards, with no luck
-formatted the phone twice
-I always do hard resets at least twice a day
-done several tests on apparent rogue apps to see if there was a difference
Alright, so now I ask of my XDA family, obviously this has been a problem ever since the ICS update. I haven't done any rooting on this phone in case I DO happen to get it replaced since its still under warranty
The ultimate question is this, will rooting fix this issue FOR SURE or should I play the safe route and just get a replacement Sensation with it still being under the one year warranty? What would you guys do Im this situation? Any other suggestions to try before deciding one of these options? Don't wanna go through with the rooting if I just have to unroot it take it back to the T-Mo dealer days later.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks

Thanks for the suggestion, but it wouldn't necessarily be a battery issue if it just started doing it once ICS was installed? Or could it have been a coincidence that it started rebooting when I did the update? Does the housing wear in after a certain time causing the battery connection to loosen?

I also use this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1622683 (third post down) as I was in the same boat as you. I ran out of idea's to why my Sensation was always rebooting no matter what I did with countless different ROM's, Kernels etc and found that this battery_fix solved all my problems. Not had 1 reboot since Hope this helps
So just a little update. Ever since I tried the credit card trick, my phone hasn't restarted once. Roughly 2 full days. Done several things that I did before that would easily make the phone restart. Opened many apps at one time, drained the battery down to 3 percent and still no restart.
I'll keep testing this method for the next couple days but so far it seems like its been a good work around. Thankyou for pointing me in the right direction ganeshp!
