Is the LG G2X worth to upgrade to from a Samsung Vibrant

I have a Vibrant w/ CM7 on it. Was wondering if this phone is worth the upgrade. I love the screen on the Vibrant, and know this is a bit of a downgrade, but everything else just seems so worth it. And yes i would be putting CM7 on this as well.
Let me know your thoughts!

Definitely worth the upgrade. Only thing the Vibrant has over this phone is the Super Amoled. The G2x has a faster processor, 1080p Video recording, front facing camera, 8 megapixel camera, 4g (feels way faster than my myTouch 4g and G2x) one of the loudest speakers I've heard on a smartphone and I've owned numerous of smartphone's (Nexus One, Nexus S, myTouch 4g, G2, Vibrant, HD7 etc.). The screen has a nice curve around the edge that feels so good when swiping across pages, pictures etc. The issues this phone has is mainly software based since Gingerbread isn't intended for dual core. ICE CREAM SANDWICH should fix this issue if we will ever get an official release from LG. If not there's always XDA devs that will be more than willing to bring this update to the G2x.

dude get the g2x it is beast and guarantee the fastest phone avail stateside, its so responsive, and yea the vibrant has the super amoled but dude the g2x screen is gorgeous, especially the contrast with the ips display i think it contends with amoled just not plus, oh camera is very sweet, game play is sick and browsing is super fast , ounce718 basically said what i was gona say , only thing i wont agree with him with is gingerbread not being optimized for dual core... well it is , i think what are phones came with ( froyo) isnt

Yes unless you love the super amoled. Everything else smashes the vibrant.

Not to argue, but my reason behind saying gingerbread isn't optimized is that when Google created gingerbread there was no dual core around. The software had single core in mind. G2x users are still experiencing random reboots, but not as frequent as before.

Because the gb update is still ****!!! Cmon I think there even saying T-Mobile pulled the update to fix some bugs and gb is more optimized for dual core then froyo is what I was getting at. Dude gb is definitely good for dual core especially if optimized rite and all the bugs are worked out u can manage ur apps better and gb has a built in task killer if u choose to use it and I/0 is better. Oh and better battery management, idk I would say gb bug free is definitely great for dual core phones look at the sgs 2

Hands down a major upgrade!! I've had a mint vibrant sitting around the whole time I've had a G2x, and never have seriously considered using it during the trials and tribulations with the G2x. The GPS is all but unusable, and while the screen is very contrasty, saturated and bright, it's also grainy, not very sharp for the resolution specs. I prefer the sharpness and clarity of the G2x IPS LCD.
I ended up getting a second G2x for testing/hacking and sold the Vibrant. A good phone, but the useless GPS was completely unacceptable.

Yes, Gingerbread is more efficient and stable than Froyo hands down. I read the post about someone claiming the Gingerbread update being pulled. Hopefully it's true and LG gives us a better version of the update.

Wait for the Samsung Galaxy S II to appear in the US. I hear it's coming August. I have it now, bought out from over seas though. You can buy it from overseas and use At & t for using the 3G/4G speeds. And AT&T has a $50 unlimited talk, text, and data. Galaxy S II doesn't show up as a smartphone so you don't have to pay extra for data plan.

Gave vibrant to wife I took the g2x. Honestly like said before the g2x screen imo is better than the vibrants samoled but samoled plus is better I'm sure..
That said sold the vibrant and got a g2x for my wife....

I was gonna wait for a SGSII Varient, or the Hercules, but i just didnt feel like waiting for the SGSII, and the Hercules screen is probably going to be too big. So i went out and bought it.
Gonna root and put CM7 on it. Hope its worth it!
Thanks everyone!

Its definitely worth it u will be happy your video camera will do 30 fps. , u will still have screenshot, just hold power down u will see the menu, cm increased data speeds, fixed battery issues, there's touch to focus for the camera, alot of nice **** that cm has incorporated into our phone download the latest nightly it is very stable and more stable then rc1 plus more stuff has been incorporated since rc1. Oh and we have voodoo sound for the g2x which is sick just flash fauxs kernel I think he's the only one with the loading module in his kernel, and we also have tons of roms to choose from if u ain't feeling cm, I love my phone with cm tho, the g2x is the best phone state side

Where does it say that the G2x has an IPS display? I thought the resolution on our G2x is 800x400?

IPS refers to the technology used in the display. It has nothing to do with resolution

Just wait another month and get the Hercules or SGSII variant.

Should I trade my G2x for Nexus S?

I've got a couple offers for my G2x trading for a Nexus S
Should i do it?
I need upgrade-ability and customization
I've heard people say the G2x will never get
Loss: Single core, VGA front facing cam, 5MP front cam.
Win: Almost guaranteed upgrade to IceCreamSandwich, Faster Update supportm NFC, Super AMOLED, Curved Glass, Louder Speaker than G2x, more stable
What would you choose?
Do you think the G2x will get ICS? (Cyanogenmod may not be able to make ICS, due to the fact that honeycomb is not open source and Google said that ICS will look like ICS.)

What? Google has confirmed that ICS will be fully open source at I/O 2011 just like Gingerbread, so the CM team will most probably support it. Otherwise, I'd stick with the G2x for the better specs, and the screen IMO is fine. It's only a little bit worse than Super AMOLED.

Glass is not curved.

In my experience the G2x screen is WAY better than any other phone I have ever used at one important thing... it is easy to view in direct sunlight. Better blacks and rich colors are great when you're huddled in the dark, but there are times when I want to go out and see both the world and my cellphone screen at the same time. The G2x is the best I have ever used in this regard.
As for the trade... i'd be tempted, but I'm sort of a path of least resistance kind of guy. I'd probably stick with what I know. I have been burned in the past with phones that have issues that don't show up right away while you are testing with your own SIM, so be careful. (Of course that advice would be even more prudent for the potential G2x recipient to follow!)
In the end I think it's whatever works best for you now, and the G2x has killer support right here in river city. I wouldn't worry too much about future proofyness, the future is seriously uncertain as it is.

I'm going to trade. Samsung tends to be better at making phones. They've made much more than LG. Also, my phones a lil bit knicked up. The one I'm getting is new. As long as the phone I'm getting doesn't lag like my Droid on gingerbread I think I'm fine to take the deal

Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App

The only reason I would swap is because it is guaranteed that I will get ICS other than that I wouldn't swap it.
G2x is superior in every other way, and if we happened to get ICS through Cyanogen we will be already superior in every aspect against the Nexus S.
The only reasonable thing for me to do is to get the new Nexus if cyanogen doesn't update our phone to ICS.

Don't compare my phone to a third world piece of junk assult rifle. If the G2x were truly a weapon, it would be something more like a PS90 or a Magpul Masada.

Dont mean to start a flame-war but, I also heard Samsung does better jobs with their RMA/Warranty than LG. It's just what i've heard.

Nexus s owns the g2x not by hardware stats but by shear support, longevity and dedicated updates for issues from Google directly. No carrier or manufacturer issues to deal with. That's a win win.

Put it this way, Nexus S is a prettier Vibrant 4G, without 4G, a SD card slot, and NFC Support. I loved the Vibrant 4G and wanted the Nexus S from my dad. I tested the G2x at T-Mobile, bought it, and don't regret it one bit. Samsung make better devices than LG, but Stock Gingerbread with an amazing launcher(extreamly fast launching) and dual core with an amazing battery, I wont leave G2x. If anything, trade for a Samsung galaxy S 2, from what I heard, best phone ever and looks like it too

I currently own in the house a g2x, nexus s, mytouch 4g, sensation and a firefly for the kiddo...with all the issues from the g2xs ive ran through its almost worth using the firefly....on a serious note the nexus s had a few let downs for what should have been a flagship phone when it arrived, though its been THE most reliable. They could have pushed more features into it. That being said...Ill use the sensation now until the prime arrives. No more screwing with carrier/manufacturer updates F THAT NOISE!

The G2x haters are still hanging around this forum. They must be closet g2x lovers. You have the sensation which is basically eye candy otherwise it really sucks. And I dare one of you to get a better quadrant score on the nexus s with its "single" core than my g2x. I can tell you I got a low 2900 on my g2x compared to a nexus s at 1850. Not even close. The nexus is a nice fone but you can't put it up against a g2x. And as far as the g2x being ugly, you're off again. Its a good looking fone maybe not as good as nexus s but I have a ton of roms that I could put on my fone that would put the nexus to shame.

[Q] Mytouch4g to a G2x

I am thinking about trading my Mytouch4g for a G2x.....i also have a dell streak 5
In everyone's opinion, which is the better phone? I know the G2x's specs are ridiculous compared to the other 2, but I have heard of many issues with the G2x.
This G2x is unlocked and rooted running 2.3.3. So I imagine that most of the bad bugs are worked out already.
So basically, I am wondering about other people's input on this trade. Should I go from the Mytouch4g to the G2x? Or should I just stick with my Dell Streak 5?

I made this switch. But I was forced to cause my MT4G died after I dropped it in water. Yes G2x is faster and has a bigger screen but in terms of development I think MT4G being an HTC is a better phone.
CM7 worked a lot better on it than G2x although G2x isn't that bad. It is still stuck on 2.6.32 kernel though, while the MT4G kernel is up to .35 and easily devvable.

Spec-wise, they are about the same. Shouldn't be much of a difference except for the keyboard.

so is it a good trade?
this guy said he had one that had problems and sent it back...this is the new replacement and it was preloaded with 2.3.3.
What are the thoughts on this? Is it going to be a better idea to root it and install a custom ROM? Are the problems more prevelant on the stock ROMs?
He said it has been fine since he got a new one. But that it had many problems before when he had one with 2.2.2. I just dont want to trade for some buggy non-functional phone!
Has anyone had a lot of problems with their G2x since rooting or stock upgrading to 2.3.3?

I got a MT4G and my wife got the G2x. After playing with her phone for half a day, I went back to the store and traded my MT4G in. I love the G2x.
Very true about development. If you are flash happy and want to change ROMs often...stick with the MT4G.

I'm in the same boat as the op, and I'm really tempted to get a g2x, as I'm a bit of a tech addict and can't wait for the gs2. On the other hand, the mt4g isn't terrible. It's stable, and development wise a lot better than the g2x. It runs pretty much 99% of what I want it to run very well.
The development is the only thing keeping me from jumping right now.

sent from a guy living in a van down by the river

I am getting antsy to get a new phone to replace my MT4G, but I do not want to spend a ton like I would on a sensation or the Galaxy 2. I was thinking an older dual core might be a good start.
I like to tinker, but not overly flash happy. Just want stability and decent battery life, and the typical things like good signal reception and call quality.

Why do people always bring up GSII? I doubt you'll notice any differences in real world performance... Just get a G2x. Development isn't that bad... But if you MUST HAVE Sense, stick with the MT4G.

The GSII is a great phone... If it is anything like the first one then it will be even better with cyanogen or any custom ROM, same with the sensation. I don't use Sense often, but it isn't that bad, especially the newer versions.
The biggest difference will be battery life. From what I am hearing, the new SOCs are much easier on the battery, so all things being equal, the sensation or GSII will have much better battery life even with higher use cases.
That is why the choice is more difficult. Besides... us tinkers (aka the rooting community) will never be satisfied long with the same phone. After about a year, it is time to look into something new. Sometimes we can't afford the latest and greatest so we look for the best bang for our buck we can.

As to a new g2x owner (3 weeks) I love this phone, bought it brand new from the store and it works flawlessly, I flashed weapons GB build and using fauxes over clocked kernel.
In other words, i'm in love with it.

G2x Vs Nexus S (GSM Version)

I am planning on getting either phone.
Which phone do you think is better and WHY?

Nexus s. Pure Google experience. Get updates much faster, such as Ice Cream Sandwich. G2x seems very problematic from what I have heard. The screen on nexus is better, the only thing going for the g2x is the processor and slightly faster data speeds.

I've had the G2x i traded to the Nexus S
They're about equally matched
The G2x doesnt have reboot issues anymore (after update)

The screen is slightly curved on the edges
1080p video
Dual-core tegra 2 (my Nexus S outscored the tegra 2 in Quadrant Video subsection)
Screen is average
Less plasticy then the Nex
Speaker is not loud at all
LG doesnt give the best tech support
The Nexus S will get updates faster
No Micro SD (16GB built in at high speed)
NFC (Google Wallet+MasterCard/PayPass)
No 720p video
Screen is amazing, pentile may look funny the first 2 days, but i cant even tell the difference anymore..
Curved glass feels nice on your fingers
Minor WiFi reception problems
It all depends on what you want. I traded a used G2x for a new in-box Nexus S. I just love the AMOLED screen, you cant tell where the screen ends, that's how good the contrast ratio is

No, its an LG Optimus G2x.
The Galaxy S 2 is a GS2.
But thanks guys .. still wondering. Its hard when you want a phone thats going to last you a bit.
Heres how I see it:
nexus s: Better battery, better screen, nicer design.
g2x: Better performance, more powerful phone, better build quality.
So here i am trying to get convinced lol.

Wow i have had both phones & j was happy with my g2x after i learned how to root n upgrade to g.b. but the nexus is kind of faster. I think either phone is good but there's more dev & mods on the g2x.
This is because the nexus s everything works out the box.

-To be really picky, the phone is awkward shaped and proportioned, its too tall for its screen size

Dude, I did the same thing –bought a G2x and a Nexus S on Craigslist and have been playing with them for about week now. G2X, rooted and ROMed, is fast, stable and a nice looking machine. On the right ROM, the battery can last all day, evening with streaming music, calls and texts, and still be half full. The camera is fargging great, too. There are two complaints I have. One is that the G2x feels a little awkward in my hand, especially compared with the curved Nexus S, which fits perfectly. The G2x is just a millimeter or two too wide for a comfortable grip for me. The other is the ICS situation. I’m sure the G2x devs will get ICS onto the phone via Cyanogen or whatever, but because LG won’t be open with certain drivers it’s uncertain whether ICS will be able to take full advantage of the phone. Oh yeah, and the comment about the sound issue is accurate, too. Although sound clarity is great, the speaker is quiet – if you’re in a crowd or noisy room, it can be a little difficult to hear who you’re talking to.
Basically, you can’t go wrong with either phone. I’ll probably hang on to both until it becomes more clear how the ICS situation plays out and then sell one of them.

Honestly, I dont even care about ICS lol .. I just want an all around better phone.

See that is why ics is so important. The UI will be hardware accelerated giving you the smoothest experience possible. Hardware acceleration on a single core will blow away a software accelerated dual core.

Are you guys still having the lack of nvidia not releasing the drivers? I kinda remember that the optimus 2x is a totally different device, and roms could not be ported. I was one of the beta test of Jboxer when he was trying to port the stock rom from the optimus 2x
everything was running fine but no data or calls

Yep still stuck. We won't get stock P990 port, but Cyanogenmod can use the drivers and then people will make kangs from that.

Wow I see there is a lot of changes around here! More roms, ICS builds etc etc.
hatefully I gave my g2x to my brother a long time ago and I got the sensation, amaze, s2.
but to tell yall the true I miss this phone and i'm trying to find a cheap one on CL. A friend of mine just got a g2x and I havent seen a phone with the crystal resolution as the g2x is not even on my S2. I see how big this community has grown. When I left it was about dead.

The sensaion is fine. I love it and the fact of bein a worldwide phones means more developers, This phone is amazing with ports of sense 4.1 and a lot but a lot of roms, and with a better camera.
but honestly the g2x is a way faster phone. its something about it that I miss it, The 3D graphics are really good on it too

The G2x is one of the best looking Android devices in my opinion. It's a simple yet elegant design. Most phones look like toys now.

After my G2x decided to go for a swim, I got the Amaze as a insurance replacement and haven't looked back. I got the G2x the day it launched and from day one, that POS would FC 2-3 times a day - every day. After 3 trade-ins I officially rated the G2x the worse Android device ever made or ever will be made. Here's to a phone I could never miss. :victory:

Are they still offering the Amaze? I wouldn't mind paying $130 to get my G2x replaced.
