The dInc also got Gingerbread 2 weeks ago, then the OTA was stopped due to some serious issues with it. Those dInc guys crack me up. It's just something about the whining about not getting Sense 3.0 with it and their insane belief that the dInc is best device ever constructed. I swear, if I read one more post where the writer says something like "Sadly, I got a dInc2 from Asurion as a warranty replacement instead of another AMOLED dInc" (like they got totally screwed in the deal!), I'm gonna find them and shove that phone up their piss hole.

I actually miss my dinc a lot. It's a great little phone. Great specs. Great dev support. Only thing keeping me from going back is 4G.

the only reason i want our OTA is for a newer hopefully more stable radio.

the Dinc is a nice phone but too small for me. the tbolt reminds me of my old evo4g, that's why i bought it. i think my next phone will be the htc vigor.

I thought you were leaving??? You stormed off yesterday.
You know what, I think you deserve a better device. Treat yourself to something nice.

whats your problem man? is it really that hard for you to not troll? do you really think the likes of you would scare me off here?...that's laughable and apparently you do not know my rep on xda.

What killed the Dinc was that it didn't have enough memory to run sense. I have a Dinc & a TBolt and I have 270 mb free most of the time with the TBolt and only 70 -100 mb free on the Dinc. The Dinc has a stripped down sense rom and the TBolt rom has most everything.

I dont have a problem, you're the one flooding the threads with non sense. All flames aside, why do you create SOOOO many meaningless threads. The other day you said you were bored, but please, spare the rest of us. I dont want to scare you off, really. But how many more of these threads are you going to create? You're the one who said you were done, not me.
Futhermore, this is nothing more than a disguised versus thread. We have a thunderbolt, why should we care about the Incredible ota. You seem like a decent guy but geesh.

Ohhhhh wellll :/
While we're on random discussions not about the Thunderbolt, the Moto Bionic comes out thursday. It looks kind of ugly shell wise and comes with moto blur :/. Nothing about whether it's locked down, but it probably is, since it was long in the works before google bought moto.

So does this mean you're not trading your thunderbolt or having sim card issues or really ticked? Considering you made threads about each of these in the past couple of days. But you're right about one thing, I should just ignore you.

Best phone every tell that to me who went through 6 Inc all for reasons that had nothing to do with Rooting or dropping the phone. The phone over heated on a few of them and fried the board. Some phone would reboot and wipe my phone clean for no reason. I did get to keep the last phone which my daughter has as a video game phone so she would keep her hands off my TB, and surprising it been a great game system/netflix for her anyways. But I would have loved to get upgraded to the new phone as a replacement it only happened to me one time but I was like HELL YEA, and that was back when it was a flip phone but I got a 3.2 MP camera.

Can't we all just get along

kinda hard when every thread i make gets trolled.

The incredible was a good phone but the Tbolt definately has advantages over it. I wouldn't trade my Tbolt back for the Incredible but it definately was a good phone.

The radio from the 2.11 leak is freakin great. I know with the TB it seems different phones respond to different radios but I have seen more positive posts about the one from the 2.11 leak then any other radio. I got 15 hours of heavy heavy usage the other day after flashing a new ROM and that radio before I even changed all my settings to help optimize battery life. Plus my 4G hasn't cut out on me at all like it did sometimes before.

bro i was seriously thinking what the hell is up with all the "goodbye g2x here i come sensation" **** why make a thread about it! just do it we dont care i mean i feel for the people that have problems with there g2x but if your going to get a sensation good luck and we will see u later!...and man as far as gingerbread goes yea it sux we gotta wait this long but these rumors are out of hand nobody knows anything so what we gota do is just wait it out
I concur. In my opinion there is less development for the G2x then there was for the Vibrant. Who knows, maybe because a new phone is rolling out every few months.

Honestly, I'm pretty happy with my G2x and CM7. Also played with the Sensation today, and it didn't really impress me. Sure, Sense 3.0 is nice and all, but I don't see what the hype is about.

I'm not having issues like others but still I bet the sensation after 2 months even with locked boot loaders have more development than this...
End of this month is all I'm giving this, then looks like I'm doing the same as everyone else...get the lead buggy device already running what were waiting for...

Actually I saw posts on the T-Mobile forums where some people are having lock ups now where they have to remove the battery to get the phone to become responsive again. I haven't heard anything about screen bleed but there are a lot of people complaining about having washed out screens. There's a whole slew of other problems starting to be reported with the Sensation as well. It almost sounds exactly like the same pattern that happened with the G2x right after launch. I'm starting to wonder if something with the T-Mobile bloatware is what's causing these phones to have problems.

How you know half have left? By reading the threads here and then applying the 1/2 left theory, that means TMO sold like 20 devices.
Its dead here because everyone is waiting on the update. Everything else is like dead horse...how do i fix a reboot...wait on you know what. My battery overheats...wait for you know what. My screen bleeds....well so do people hit by cars, but you know what will fix that.
who would put the dev time right now into a new rom when a update is expected "by summer".
My son just called me and told me he's going to buy a sensation. I asked him,, does it have you know what on it? He said..."huh". So much for the really important things in this world.

One of the cool things about my job, is I get to break things. Up until wp7, tearing apart a ROm and finding out what causes problems was an easy thing to do. With the T-Mobile HD2, simply removing the bloatware made that device a better device. It was fun to sit and demonstrate a problem, flash a clean build, and watch the faces of the people around the table as the problem no longer appeared. I dated a TMO dev for a while...it didn't last.
Bloatware iis the #1 cause of problems, followed by drivers. I'd say problamatic apps would be 3rd. The primary reason for rooting is to remove bloatware...IMO.

At three months in the Vibrant wasn't "way ahead of this"...even with the relatively easy porting from other Galaxy S devices. We have good development for a three month old phone. With more devs showing interest daily...hell development is the reason I chose this phone. the slight pause you are detecting is probably the devs waiting for stable drivers from the Gingerbread drop.
But if you want to go...go..

I think its t-mobile's fault. until they adopt a new quality over quantity attitude and stop letting manufacturers have a turf battle with each other for the apple's direct competion crown we might get better phones. better as in tried and tested not the numbers war similar to digital camera manufacturers five years ago before ppl knew better. Better phones with even better support as far as updates are concerned.

I think you hit the nail on the head. We all know their WiFi Calling and My Account apps eat up data and kill the battery like no other.
I removed those the minute I got root and didn't have any further issues. I made a thread with all the crap Tmo put in there... even that scary LogMeIn remote desktop crap that they (use for support). Why would I want ANY one displaying up my phone on their screen other then me?
I also think that once they re-release the G2x with Gingerbread, the forums will pick back up. Remember you can't buy this phone right now. Most of the initial supporters are jumpers (they buy EVERY new phone that comes out) plus some that had issues and swapped.
You know thats why Tmo isn't selling the Froyo G2x anymore (waiting for GB). I think its a strong move because most companies just want the $$ and would sell a junk item to anyone. Ceasing the orders will speed up the GB update process (so they can continue making $$).
Oh and let me say HHHHHAAAAEL No im not getting a sensation. I think its a piece of crap. Stop the hate G2x threads.
Sorry about my mishap earlier on this thread, I cant leave this beast of a device.
Especially if Galaxy On Fire 2 comes out this month and they dont post pone it for a 3rd time

Switched to Sensation _ Thank You

Hey guys, I know that this is the millionth post about this but I gave in and switched to the Sensation.
I could not handle the reboots and the fact the TMobile and LG left me in Limbo for so long about what they were going to do.
I just wanted to thank all the Developers that made the phone usable and all the people who helped me out when I had questions. The G2X is truly a great phone and I hope that it comes back truly stronger with the Gingerbread update. Again. Thank you.

Well, I own both...and unless the news out of LG is totally bad..I won't be switching. It's slower and sexier and has the same problems every other phone has...
Both are good phones...I doubt the lack or reboots was the final decider. Its a Nexus style body that is fast and cool, and new, and it fit nicely in your hand.
If you like it, you like it. If not, you don't. Next !!!!
I did a test... I handed my girlfriend the Sensation...she goes...wow....this is nice. then I handed her the G2x. She goes...wow....this is nice. I see your problem now. All of that without once touching anything on the phone....only holding it.
Would you own a phone that didn't feel good in your hand? I owned an iPhone...bought it because it was cool. I gave it away to my son because he wanted it. The phone felt weird so I wasn't overwhelmed by it. Looked at the iphone 4 at VZW last week. It still felt weird. Didn't buy it.
So, bottom line....this is NOT about quality, this is about feeling good !!! hahahahah where's that guy with the bridge !!!

Come on Tom. I am happy with my G2X but I am sure that the Sensation will not be pulled from stores for a month without any word from HTC and T-mobile . I'm also sure that folks that have them don't have to go through 3 of them to get a working one or flash a custom rom to keep it from rebooting. AGAIN .

Yea, using the "S" word here is a no no. It's kind of funny because over in the Sensation forum, you don't see anyone talking **** about the G2X and trying to justify why the Sensation is the better device.
Usually when you need to start justifying something......well....you figure it out!
I have both devices and they are both great in my opinion. The best anology I can make is by comparing them to cars. The g2x is a lamborghini, the sensation is a porsche.
The g2x is faster and more exotic, but difficult to live with on a daily basis due to instability and "high" maintenance.
The sensation is plenty quick, just not as quick, but the great trade-off is that it is reliable and predictable.

Sent from my super snappy G2x
I want to jump in here a sec, i have a G2X, im on my second one. First one was rebooting and driving me crazy, Amazon as always is awesome. Got my replacement with no screen bleed but it randomly reboots also, does it less but it still does. Called them up and got them to send me a Sensation. I've tested it before and saw some very minor lag, but the phone is a beaut. Come Monday i will have them both in hand and have 30 days to decide. I love the G2X but my wife who has a Nexus one and my son who has a Nexus S both tell me the same thing why keep a phone if you cant have it reliably answer a call or make a call. I'm tired of my wife and son telling me there phones are so stable. I know already, both of them where mine lol. Just last night we where watching a movie on the tv and the G2X was sitting there on the table and it just reboot again and my wife just laughed. Im so lucky to be able to just switch to whatever phone i want and not worry about things like reboots. LG you have 30 days to fix, HTC you have 30 days to unlock or i hear Smasung has a SGS2 i can import.

uhhh, I did not pick either of the posts, one is this threads OP and the other is what you wrote specifically to me. BS has a certain odor.
So you write to me telling me you like and love your G2x, comment on people who have Sensations, clearly showing you are not part of that group.
THEN only 6 hours later, you create this thread as a swan song that you are ditching the G2x and went to the Sensation.
From loving the phone to dumping the phone in 6 hours flat. I only noticed the smell because you posted by name to me, and you created this thread 6 hours later. So I thought I would ask you why you bought a 600 dollar phone replace a phone you had loved just 6 hours earlier.
Sorry to have a sense of smell, thought you might want to explain/bluff more....no need as yes they are both great phones, both with about the same level of problems, with the biggest difference being most of the G2x will be resolved and speeded up by 2.3 that the Sensation already runs that.
The thread you posted to me was on irony, your thread here and that are very ironic...I have both a nose and a sense of irony.

I love my G2X but I love my Sensation more. Am I a troll as well because I don't use the G2X anymore as my daily driver?

What to say to customer support.

Is there something i can say is wrong with my phone to get it replaced with a DIFFERENT phone. Its just a theoretical question I dont hate my phone but I need a "backup plan".

Makes sense. They will almost give you that phone right now on an upgrade. They offered it to me for $17 for my upgrade. But I went with the sensation.

? what exactly is wrong with your phone. I'm using phoenix blood ROM and I love this phone. Its so smooth and i can do everything i need to do. even people with iphone are jealous.
you guys needa quit being so moralistic with these corporations they screwed us on this phone multiple times and tmobile was trying to pack up and dip on us anyway and hand us over to ATnT so if the dude wants what he paid for what he thinks he deserves let him do it not like LG or Tmobile are going to go bankrupt from it or even care that one dude beat the system .. if anything i hope you do beat the system and get it cause they're some grimmey people for real
See I have nothing wrong with my phone. My phone runs great on weapon and faux's kernal. My mothers phone is being buggy though, or either she is technologically deficient. I also was hoping that the phone i was going to get was going to be supported for a while considering the fantastic specs. Anyway alot can happen in 2 years. We are most likely to see an ics port.

Personally i dont like phoenix blood. Once you use weapon, you can't go anywhere else. I am in love with the toggles and the fonts are not too tacky. Everything just works.

Weapon is good but the cm7 nightly and trinity combo is even better.

Agreed. You're robbed on a monthly basis from TMo. My line on a family plan is $60 a month for services that literally cost the company nothing. They could charge a fraction of that price and still make a profit margin > 100%. On top of that, TMo tried to dump a faulty device on their customers knowing full-well it had hardware problems. Don't feel bad; take everything you can from corporations and don't look back. They would (and DO) do the same to you.
I've had my share of bad experience with my G2X. Recently on kang's nightlies, I notice gps locks instantly. I've been very happy with my phone for a long time.
My one issue still remains, and its emails on stock app don't sync after 10 hours. If I can find a fix i'd be happy and giddy.
I am pretty sure the email issue doesn't exist on stock cooked 2.3.3 roms but I'm too accustomed to cm7 and the built in notifications. I refer cm7.
There are black screen of death I get but, I get by. Email just drives me mad.
More support for this phone either from T-Mobile or LG will be great. Can't complain now that I'm running BP n supercharger v6 nothing is wrong. Maybe GPS not locking fast enough but is way better than an iPhone.... can't say that I don't want ics cuz i do.... btw if u do get to beat the system I'd like to know how. Cuz I'm 1 month away from leaving T-Mobile and refuse to get 2 yr contract with them

I was too late.. by the time i got to a pc to install plan b, the thief had already swapped sim card. And considering i had just flashed weui, i didn't have the time to restore all my apps prior to it getting stolen.

My condolences
It is amazing how great this phone is.. still kickin..
Any idea where you may go from here? if you have an upgrade you have quite a few nice options at least.
same thing happened to me...but then I just bought another cappy
My suggestion is - backup and keep simple 9-dot lock.
Also I don't keep any financial info on the phone. NFC will fail.
I can't bring myself to ditch the Captivate just yet, though the new HTC One X looks pretty awesome. The windshield mount and desktop stand are one of the best I have ever used thats why I can't tear myself away just yet.
After rooting my Captivate and installing a new ROM (Slim ICS), it's like a new phone.
The One X does look cool, but I'm surprised there's no SD slot. Still, probably no issue for most people.
We'll see how soon the shiny wears off, but ICS on my Captivate is fast, functional and just really nice. So I can wait for a more optimal-for-me phone.
dropped my captivate a couple weeks ago... cracked the screeen...kinda want the nexus =p
Too bad
I don't dare to image it will happen to my cappy
That's terrible man :/....I've had my cappy for a while now and I have fallen back in love with it...first had it and I didn't like it then I got into rooting and stuff and then found how to flash roms and stuff and now I don't need an upgrade I love ittttt

I think they are like 240$ something on amazon unlocked.......http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Capti...QNJS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1335719427&sr=8-1
Craigslist usually has them for about $100-150. Sometimes you can find one that's boot looped someone wants to sell, thinking its permanently borked.
Make sure you report it stolen with the phone company. They will mark the imei number as stolen.

That's horrible! You have all our hopes behind you. As said a couple posts up they can be found relatively cheap on Craigslist. Sometimes cheaper than $100 if you're really lucky or they looped it.

I just kill my cappy last night after flash the 3 button fix. Do you want to send your broken cappy to me to help the poor?
Thanks
Wow, that sucks. After reading this I'm going to be extra paranoid about not losing my phone for a while.

Huawei myTouch?

I saw this another website (can't link you to it, against XDA rules, sorry!) and it looked interesting. Give me your opinions, thoughts.
***DISCLAIMER***
In no way do I have any solid information from T-Mobile regarding the new MyTouch line, I am simply posting based on information from tmonews.com, and other sites.
According to sources (and a very convincing video posted by the guys over at engadget), the newest Manufacturer to add the MyTouch to their resume will be Huawei. It is said to be a mid range phone, however testers have stated that potential buyers should not be concerned about the device being mid range, stating that it is very solid, and smooth in testing.
My only experience with Huawei has been very low end entry devices, so I am curious what other's thoughts on this might be. Give me your opinions in the comments!

Compared to a pantech or a huawei, maybe.
I heard the Huawei is gonna be pretty good. All they've made is entry level, so obviously the experience won't be up to par. They introduced some new high end stuff at ctia or whatever just passed lately. Give em a chance, at least read a review first

i just got the new myTouch last week when it was released. I had the one from HTC as that was my replacement to my G2 from Asurion. Have the say the HTC one was a piece of garbage. Worst phone i ever had, thank god it broke a week after i got it and i was forced to get the new myTouch. This device is everything that the G2 was but better. Sure the HTC cam was a really nice piece of hardware, but only the stock OS could run it and that just wasn't worth running.
I'm hoping to root this device tonight!

Huawei did step up their game with the solid piece of hardware. Have you used it yet? it's far superior the the myTouch4g slide from HTC. I'm not wrong on this. time will show that HTC dropped the ball on that device big time. It was a horrid replacement device for the G2. I'm not saying HTC is crap, i'm saying their version of the myTouch was...so in case i don't know what i'm talking about...i'm sure you're standing on the biggest little soapbox around.
peace.
btw...i smoke a lot of nice flowers!!!
and what was so great about the HTC myTouch4g if you think i'm wrong? The 3 roms for it were barely stable. Had to remove my battery more than ever. Stock rom was loaded with so much bloat that the phone was virtually useless. Even when they were removed, you still have to choose Maps every time you wanted to navigate someplace as it wanted to use TMo's subscription app.

Seriously man... stop hating. We have enough going on here. We don't need anyone going on about how some phone was better than the slide or the glacier on the GLACIER forum. Whatever phone you have go to that one and talk about how superior it is.

How sad we are thinking Huawei "stepped their game up". Its still got GB on it troll. The simple fact that Hawaii (or whatever the eff they are called, lol) is behind it automatically makes it a paper weight. Why dont you go "upgrade" to that and I'm sure in no time you'll be trolling here again because there wont be jack for dev. over there. Now kick rocks.

This genius is confusing the mytouch 4G Slide with the myTouch 4G. Not only is he wrong about that, he's posting in the wrong forum.
Two possibilities:
1) Moron.
2) Troll.
Either way, you fell for it. Arguing with either is a waste of time.

you guys are right, i didn't confuse it, i've got the slide version. my fingers are way to big to use just a touch screen.
