I really wana buy the phone and root it and put cm7 would I still have random shutdowns ? Please share your experience . Right now I have HTC panache from Canada if anyone wana trade
I would like to know the same question. The only difference is that I bought the g2x already and I'm about to kick t mobile in the face because this is the second one that I have had and they are extremely unstable (t mobile told me the phone was a great phone they are full of sh#t). I really like the phone and all the features, but I don't want to flash another ROM unless I know that it will fix the random boot looping, and random shutdowns. Until they give me a better phone or lg updates this thing with gingerbread then I'm stuck in a hole and don't want to do anything.
CM7 nightly #80 here. Haven't had a random shutdown/reboot/whatever since I don't know when. Then again, I install do almost every nightly, so my phone gets a reboot every other day or so. Testing Faux's kernel now.
Overall the stock rom is a sack of crap and you should definitely look into another rom/kernel. Most if not all of this phone's issues are software and more get fixed every day.
Not if you don't plan to root it and load a different ROM

I would say a big No to buying this phone now.
Had mine since release day, running CM7 now. Even though things are much better with CM7 this phone has 0 support from LG or Nvidia.
If you are in the market for a new phone I would just wait a few months and get the new Nexus thats going to be released.
N1 was my first phone then the G2x but from now on I think i'm only going to stick to Nexus line of phones as they get their support from Google.
I am with you on this one...if you can wait it out, do it. I have this strange feeling the update we get from LG will be our last. Seriously look how long it's taking them to release plain gb.

If you plan to root/flash/mod it, then YES this will be a great phone for you! Definitely buy it! The experience with stock rom seems to be hit/miss -- some people claim to have no issues, while others (myself included) had problems with random reboots and other glitches.
I rooted mine 2 days after getting it, and I've flashed several different roms onto it, and it has been a great phone. Its a beast for sure. I've settled on CM7 because I love the speed/battery-life/custom settings. But I also like Ultimate G2X 1.0 for a Froyo/Stock-based rom.

What are you basing this "feeling" off of? Its only been 2 months since the phone was released. I do think they would've been better to wait until they had gingerbread ready before releasing the phone, but this phone will be a viable piece of hardware for some time to come. Its a powerhouse.

I'm with you on sticking with the Nexus phones if you want the quickest updates to Android. However I dont think that means this is a bad phone to buy. I had the Nexus One and I loved it. I was even reluctant to switch to the G2X because I loved my N1 so much. The Nexus S wasn't enough of an upgrade for me, so I decided to go ahead and get the G2X. Looking back, I'm glad I did. This phone is amazing and I'd make the same decision again.
Granted, I bought it planning to root/mod it. I wouldn't recommend it for someone who wants a surefire 100% stable stock experience. But if you're gonna mod it then its a perfect phone. Great hardware and there are some great devs supporting this phone.
Im in canada and i bought one from Wind Mobile, (they call it the optimus 2x, but its really a G2x) I havent had a single problem with it thus far, no screen bleeding, freezes, or reboots.
If you do get one, make sure you dont make the mistake i did. When you flash it use Nvflash, and only refer to the g2x forums.
If anyone wants to buy a G2X, I have one for sale in new condition without a scratch or blemish on it. I returned 4 of them to get my current one which is perfect without any bugs and only some minor screen bleed. I don't think you can find one without any bleed at all but mine is only noticeable in a dark room with the brightness cranked to 100 while looking at a dark background. No screen bleed is noticeable during normal use. I had my G2X for almost 2 months without a single reboot, freeze or any other major problem. The battery on mine also lasts a ling time compared to some other reports I see in these forums. If your interested, make me a offer. You will get everything it came with, including the box.

Mines from Wind as well and no issues other than poor stock ROM battery life, since I've rooted it and set profiles with SetCPU and used to Titanium to freeze background bloat I can last until around 10-11PM before it's dead and needs a charge. Not the best but gets me through a day.

running rc-1 here and haven't had any problems at all. I love my phone. Love eeverything about it. But like someone said above tthere is really no support for it. And there is going to be a line of a bunch of dual core phones with probably the same specs soon to come. If I were you I might wait it out. Although it is a great phone running cm7

Due to several issues with ATT support and service my wife and I paid our ETFs to terminate our contract. The other night we were looking at T-Mobile and found a cheaper but better plan then what is offered by ATT and the free G2Xs, we jumped on board.
My question is will we like this phone? I have been doing some reading and it sounds like there might be some hardware or software issues. What is the general consensus on this forum about the phone overall? I'm coming from an HTC Aria which was rooted and running an AOSP build and I love it. My wife is coming from a 3GS, which she loves but is willing to try Android.
My phone is perfectly fine, I've only run into reboots when messing with voltages in setCPU.
Cyanogenmod nightly and fauxs kernel works brilliantly.
If you like a crazy fast phone with amazing graphics rendering and fantastic sound then you will love the phone. With Gingerbread most of the problems have been mitigated. Plus you got in on the free deal so you can't beat the price.
You'll like it.

Ever since I updated 2.3.3 (did it only to get baseband) phone is solid. Had growing pains but I'm happy with it. Might just sell the myTouch 4G spare I have. I see no need to move back to it.
Just make sure its updated with latest 2.3.3 you can flash a custom ROM. Can't speak for 2.3.3 because haven't used a stock ROM in ages.
Hardware wise its best phone, despite the bad PR
Why come to Tmobile if you are trying to leave AT&T, when it is very possible that Tmobile will be AT&T soon?
I just got my free g2x. My reboots are only when the phone gets hot which is on the wall charger. When it's charging on my PC its fine. I love it though and will give it more time.

Phone is awesome. LG/Tmobile firmware is decent with the GB upgrade. If you flash a custom rom to this thing then it is freaking amazing. Its a very powerful phone. The unlocked bootloader gives us so much freedom for customizing. Whether you decide to flash roms or not, use the nvflash tool in the development section to put clockworkmod recovery on your phones. Its much more useful than stock recovery, and if you ever want to flash a rom you're all set to do so. Just remember to revert back to stock recovery (using the same nvflash tool) if you have to ever return the phones to T-Mobile for any reason.

RE: Heat, I found after a full restore it helps out, this was posted before I tried.

I have some old chargers for other phones that are the same sized, the stock one is 1w and the others I have are 700 mw and 800mw all 5 volts +/- .2
They charge slower, and keep the temperature down. I have like 3 of these hanging around.
Seriously after my full rest, the phone was noticeable cooler. This on 2.2 might not be valid on 2.3 but likely is

I love this phone, +1 for what everyone else said. Its got its issues but its still the best phone out there. The screen resolution IMO beats out any Samsung samoled, hands down. The bad news for you though is that it's more than likely going to be a snafu for you if you go with tmo. It looks like att will be buying them as of next year some time.

My phone works fine now after about 5-6 of them but their giving this phone away for free for a reason and that's because its a piece of crap. Never has a phone with this good a specs gone down in price so quickly and even given away for free for the second or third time. Probably should of got a HTC Sensation or MT4G Slide would of definitely been better of.

My previous phone was a HTC Aria, small and under powered compared to the new phones on the market. That being said I love the Aria; easy to root and very durable. I have looked into newer HTC devices and I have "read" that the sensation has some design issues or flaws with the screen? Digitizer? I don't think you'll find a phone out there without problems. I gave the G2X a try because I didn't want to spend any money on new phones considering I have paid my way out of an ATT contract. If the Phone is crap I can go back to my unlocked Aria.
You will run into many problems like auto shutdown/reboot, screen bleed and hit/miss wifi. This phone doesn't work out of the box. Don't waste your time on this phone. I would wait for next Nexus or a Galaxy S2.

Have you ever considered running errant apps has caused your problems? My G2X has been updated to GB, never reboots, never lockups, the wifi is perfect and screen bleed is a non issue. I never use my phone in a dark room with the brightness turned all the way up with a black background. That is the only way to see the so-called screen bleed. All IPS backlight displays have it, and I have had it on every notebook I have ever owned. It is normal and for normal usage a complete non issue. I am using my phone stock and unrooted.

So I have an Evo 4g on sprint. I love it. My parents have the family plan on ATT and my dad is up for a new phone. Apparently he can get the Inspire for free. He wont be rooting or anything like that. Are there any problems we should be aware of. GPS, signal problems, etc?
I guess I just want to know if this is a solid phone that he can use to look up stuff on the internet that we are arguing about and I think he wants to use the caddie golf apps his friends use. Is it basically just the ATT version of my evo? If it is, I would definitely recommend it in a heartbeat.
Thanks
All and all, the Inspire is a good phone, though it lacks a front camera, if that even matters.
Lack of front camera won't be an issue. I am more looking for issues that come up a month or two that make people regret buying the phone.
I've had it since release day and still have no issues with it. He may not be happy with battery life and the fact that there really aren't any options for extended batteries because of the phone's design.

Some people have issues with the GPS antenna not being properly attached and therefore getting poor reception. I think I have that issue, but it doesn't affect me enough to require me taking it in. Some people do have to do that though
It's been a great phone form me. Even if you just root it with a stock rom and a different kernal, you should be able to squeeze some more batt life out of it, plus you'll get rid of the att bloatware.
Yeah, pretty much the only downside is the ATT bloatware, if you can live with it then by all means I recommend this phone without rooting it at all...if you're like me and want full control and the ability to customize certain things rooting would be the way to go. When I was stock and rooted I haven't had any issues with internet, service or signal..aside from the occasional dead zones in my office and my girlfriend's work( hospitals so go figure).From what it sounds like, the way your dad wants to use the phone, I think he'll be happy with it.
The only issue I've had was mentioned above. Due to the design, I had serious signal issues that got worse over time. I got a warranty replacement and could immediately tell the difference in signal strength with the new one. Some ppl have this issue, some don't. He can always get a warranty replacement if he ends up with a lemon. Other than that, I love this phone and would definitely recommend it.

The bad part is that it really will depend on the device you get. Might take you a few tries to get a "perfect" device and it might not. If your dad is having you help him with a choice then my only advice would be to look at what he really is gonna do with it and get a device that fits him.
I have had no issues with mine and to honest I am happy with it to the point of waiting awhile before I upgrade, it does everything I need it to do easily and as long as I am not working on a beta Rom pretty reliable. Lol
Thanks for the replies guys. It helps. I think my dad just wants a phone like mine to look up stuff and play with apps. I have the EVO on sprint, and I seem to like everything except the battery life. I just want him to have a phone he can have fun playing with apps like the gps golf app and such, and doesn't have to worry about trying to get the darn phone to work all the time. For instance my samsung epic had serious GPS issues and it made apps that used the gps hard to use cause the gps hardware in the phone sucked.
I figured at $30, he would be getting a pretty good phone.
would appreciate you expressing your likes/dislikes about this phone. if problems from when it was released have been addressed, etc. If you feel their is something noticeably better by T-mobile, u can also point me in that direction.
note: i am looking into the new Wallmart/T-mobile deal (with grove IP)

thx for replys, id b upgrading from an optimus V (virgin mobile) so it will b a much newer phone (not that the ov is a bad phone, just outdated).
I would suggest you pick another phone, my wifes g2x has been freezing, rebooting, not turning on and this is the second one thats been doing it. lG are sposed to be working on an update, but im not holding my breath. There is the glacier which i have and love it, sensation, sgs2, amaze....so much better phones.
XOOM
I myself live this phone ...Yes it had to be replaced one time because the phone itself had a problem staying connected with a server ... But now I've had no major problems whatsoever .. Haven't had any rebooting problems but I might have it freeze here and there, but then I'm always flashing my phone so if it freezes it doesn't bother me... I know someone who has the sensation and have had the chance to really check it out and really don't care for it ... IMHO this phone blows it away... haven't checked out any other new phones so I can't comment on them but I can say I'm happy with this phone ... Especially now that we have CM 2.3.7
Hi guys!
I'm trading my SGS4G for a G2x, and have been reading some of the threads on the forums. Some of the issues I can look past, like the updating to ICS or dev support, but the random rebooting, 3G/4G issues are starting to worry me. Are these people just insanely unlucky or does this happen to plague way more G2X's? The phone seems absolutely phenomenal, and personally dev support seems to be perfectly fine. I just don't want to trade for a phone and end up being one of those unlucky people.

Well it seems like the newer batch of G2x's are the good ones and the bad ones were the first batch. Just a theory though. But how are you getting the G2x? Craigslist or via TMO?
It's best to get a G2x that already has the GB build pre installed as you'll already have the latest baseband and a better chance to have the newer batch.
If you do happen to get a good one like I did then it's a no brainer. It's way better than the SGS4G. And you have CM7, seems like the SGS4G will never get CM7.
My phone suffers from random reboots despite having gb from factory.

Yeah, I got mine via CL as well trading my MT4G.
I have minimal bleed but I honestly never notice it unless it's on full brightness and it's on a black screen. Just flash CM7 as soon as you can, that has solved some people's rebooting issue.
What if that doesn't? Would I just be SOL or do I go through the whole replacement hell that some people seem to be going through? Screen bleeding I can deal with if its minimal. SOD and random rebooting would drive me insane.

95% of the general public don't know as much as we do about phones. I traded my MT4G for the G2x from some girl that wanted my MT4G purely because it ran Sense and she didn't like the G2x's stock Android.
So you'd be surprised the good deals you see on CL.
I got my G2x from Amazon for 250$ thinking it was gonna be a O2x but nope got this already GB and since I put CM7 nightlies 180+ I have had no issues!
Love my G2x
This phone has the same potential as all super phones, I just think some people need to use the phone as it is and stop trying to benchmark it comparing it other phones. Its fast and reliable and you wont be dissapointed!

Rule of thumb, the stock software is garbage. Gingerbread update helps a ton, but just know that the software from LG sucks.
My neighbor used the stock Gingerbread for a while without many issues. Just know the custom roms will fix most things.
Stock based rom = random reboots/Black Screen of Death (find it in your pocket unable to power up = battery pull). Best rom (IMO) = Weapon
CM7 based rom= Pretty good anymore. They used to have Cellular Data issues but I think they got it worked out. Haven't had any problems with my recent CM7 Nightly. Best rom (IMO) = CM7 Stable. Nightlies are fun but bugs are hit and miss although to be expected.
MIUI (CM7 based) rom = No WiFi Calling. Everything else worked very well. It is typically a week or two behind CM7 development.
I had no problems with stock GB other than being able to root it, otherwise I would have kept it :/

How much more are you paying for the G2x?
Powered by a G2x
I added 40 dollars to it.
The G2X is brand new basically, no scratches what so ever. Everything works, double checked again and again (pretty sure the guy was getting annoyed with me, oh well.) and it works beautifully. Even charged it for about 4 hours to see if the SOD would happened and it hasn't, nor has it rebooted randomly. TIME TO ROOT IT!

That's exactly how much I added to mine as well to get the G2x.
Just use the NVFlash method to get CWM and you're good to go. You don't even necessarily need root to flash ROM's for the G2x.
i just recently bought a G2X off CL for $200, then turned around and sold my HD2 for $200 on CL. haven't had any major issues with my phone. came with GB pre-installed. haven't decided on if i wanna flash a new rom on it or not. i dont see a need to right now.
