Just reverted back to stock and now I get reboots never got one with a custom rom, I want to figure what bloatware is causing it.

One of the options in Titanium Backup's schedules is to include a reboot after the backup.
haha ya but some of those times it doesn't boot back up lol. I'm probably going abck to root world.
i'm extremely happy with gingerbread though i never had to go through the big problems of froyo. my only problem is occasional lag and also my lock screen lags terribly but those are only minor annoyances not really problems

Froyo wasn't the problem either. In fact I'm still running a Froyo rom as my daily driver. It was all the bloatware. As soon as I got rid of all the unnecessary stuff T-Mobile had preinstalled I stopped having issues with my phone.
i still have every single bloatware app on my phone and i have no problems

This is not necessarily true. There are different models of G2X, what the differences are I don't know but the LG Update Tool will brick one of them (though it can be fixed).

First off, 1080p video is only through LG cam; no other camera app is capable of it on the G2X. And yes, the official 2.3.3 build removed the LG camera, replacing it with the (significantly weaker) AOSP camera. However, a team of devs has gotten the LG camera working on 2.3.3 and is currently trying to get it onto 2.3.5.
Am pretty happy with it even tho I didn't start having major problems like rebooting untill I upgrade to 2.3 but its not really a big deal because it only happens once in a blue. My friend on the other hand I feel bad because he upgraded to gingerbread and still has every problem known to the g2x. And the reason why I feel bad is cause I told him how great the phone was so he went out the purchased it at full price. Shortly after I joined u wonderful folks at xda and started reading the nightmares

I had a weird YouTube bug with my MT4G running CM7 RC2. I paused a video and turned the screen off to go do something for a few minutes, and when I went back to the video, it froze and I had to force-close youtube to get any sort of control.
But the audio from the video was still going! I had to reboot to stop it--even opening another video in youtube just made two audios playing at once LOL.

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.

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.

When I first read about the bricks I switched back to froyo, I stayed on it for less than 72 hours before I switched back to gb. So far my experience has been great not a single random reboot and everything works as it should. I'm more hesitant of messing with system files as I normally would be but I think I can hold off tweeking if the trade off is a complete gb sense experience.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
I don't see any problem with switching back, since the intiial bricks (3-5 people?), I haven't heard of anyone else bricking.
Just be sure to wear your tinfoil hat when flashing.
I don't think there have been many (or any) bricks since the announcement
I'm running CM7 gingerbread just to be safe. Ill switch back when the dev who originally posted the warning says we are good to go back.

Yes. Call volume is a tad bit low (not a problem for me but may be for some people who are hard of hearing, or work/live in a noisy area). Absolutely no problems with 3G and 4G works by just switching from 4G to 3G, getting a strong signal, then switching back.

It works plenty well enough to use daily. The battery life wasn't great for me. since being on Das Bamf 2.0-5 I've really started to like the new Sense bits so I couldn't go back to CM7. Plus the battery seems to last forever on 2.0-5. If my phone takes a dump I guess I'll at least be able contribute a broken phone to the crew trying to figure out the problem.

CM7 is fine. 4G handoffs are fine, everything works fine so far. Haven't found any issues yet. Only small annoyance is after I get off a phone call, the screen wont respond to anything unless I lock the phone and unlock it again. But that only seems to happen if the other person hangs up first.

Luckily I've never had this problem ever. Apparently from what I've read around here and few other forums are that their are faulty devices and it takes a few replacements to get a good handset.
Also, maybe getting recent new made device would negate those bugs. Mine was manufactured 8/11/11 and not one bug what so ever.
Good Luck

Random reboots are almost always app related. What apps have you installed? I have been running the stock GB and versions of it with no problems whatsoever. Never had a reboot or any other problems.
This is a common issue with the G2x. When the phone came out a lot of people complained about it and got different phones but I suggest flashing a custom rom like Weapon G2x and it could help fix the problem. If that doesn't work replace it at tmobile or switch for a another phone.

Has anyone tried playing Words With Friends on their new One S yet? It works, but as the title suggests, it's painfully slow when trying to return to the game from the ads after taking my turn (if there was a paid version I would buy it to avoid this). And it even tries to force close! I'm using the most recent version - 4.83.
Just curious if anyone else is having the same experience?
Thanks y'all.
It's probably an issue with the app on ICS rather than your specific model. I haven't played it yet on my phone but I remember even on my SGS2 it started to get annoyingly laggy!

Thanks unclespoon. I have to admit - I never considered for a moment that it was actually a problem with the One S. That phone RULES. I just wondered if others had a similar experience.
Hopefully it will get optimized for the One S and other ICS devices sometime soon.

Tried this. It's somewhat better, but not smooth. It was never perfect, but it didn't try to force close either. Got one more force close this AM after clearing the data/cache. Still stumped on this one.
I picked up the One S a few days ago...same issues for me, including the FC when it gets tired of waiting. Definitely not the phone--the phone is sick as hell. It was the one to finally knock my HD2 off its perch, and I haven't looked back yet (though I did keep the old girl as CM9 and ICS are still being developed at a nice clip for that device).
