Considering Getting This

I'm sure you've had several threads on this, but should I return my Galaxy S 4G for the G2x? Is that big a boost in performance? I love stock Android, hate Touchwiz, but the Galaxy S has an amazing screen. Also, does the app Wiimote Controller work with the G2x?

Huge boost in performance. The G2x works like "butter" as many have been saying. G2x's screen is amazing, some are saying it's one of the best on the market right now and even outshines some of Samsung's screens. Wiimote does not work YET due to LG adding in their own bluetooth stacks into the phone instead of the more common ones, however it's generally believed that a ROM (Probably Cyanogen) or a software mod will fix the issue. Hope this helps!

Yeah, that's another thing. There's almost no support for this phone from T-Mobile, Samsung, and the modding community, with the G2x having all of the above.

not true the sgs4g is not even close to iphone... better screen just for starters and at least t-mobiles network can handle the sgs4g
but YES it is better.... i traded my SGS4G the next day..... (well sent it back to order the G2x)

yeah the SGS4G and the vibrant felt like plastic kids toys.... the G2x feels like a tank
and ive had mine for almost a week
NO reboots
NO data problems
NO screenlock death
minor bleeding but its only @ 100% brightness and in a dark room

I exchanged my Galaxy S. for the T-Mobile G2X. Yes, the screen is a big change, the Galaxy has a much better screen. But after about 10 days, I've forgotten the difference and was really enjoying the speed increase of the G2X. If you think you can get over the change in the screen, go for it, if you don't, you better stick with the the galaxy S or wait for the galaxy S II coming out soon.

No ICS for us

This was my first LG phone. While the hardware is great, the official software sucks. The way LG handled GB was lame, and they way they are handling this is lame, it's like they don't want customers to buy another one of their phones in the future. Well, I guess my next phone is going to be HTC or Samsung.
Sent from my CM7 G2x using XDA Premium App

Yeah, this is my last LG phone.... back to Samsung or HTC for me and pawn this phone off to the girlfriend...

I've been lucky and not had any issues with my phone ...even when I was on the stock froyo rom. We ended up with a working GB rom from the cm team months before an official one was released. I'm sure if its possible someone will port ICS to our phones. If your one of those that doesn't flash roms and will only install stock roms from the manufacturers then you prob should only be buying nexus phones to insure upgrades, or you shouldn't be using android at all and buy an iphone.

The only way to tell LG that the "F" up is to stop buying LG phones.
It will take efforts from everyone to start telling friends and family not to buy LG phones and to go somewhere else. Get the movement going.......NO MORE LG! LOL

I think by making this move LG has messed up bad. Even if cm9 is released it will never take the full advantage of our tegra dualcore processor. LG must provide their version of ICS so that the cm team can improve our version.

Just saw this and even though I no longer have this phone I'm still pissed (cuz my brother does have it).
First a POS 2.3 update and now this slap in the face. This phone is probably one of the most Epic Fails that I've seen (software), as far as hardware it would still run circles around some of these new phones out including my SGS2.
Unfortunately it will never see it's full potential thanks to Nvidia for not releasing their source and LG for not updating it.
Yeah, these great devs can port any future updates, but it will never work to it's full potential.
Needless to say that I've learn my lesson and I will never buy an LG phone again. I'll stick to HTC and Samsung(which I hope they improve their track record).

Of course there will be ICS for us. CyanogenMod is comprised of some pretty freaking smart developers.

Did you seriously not see this coming? It took LG months to get the 2.3 update out the door and even then it shipped with a FroYo kernel. While the answer sucks, I give them credit for being upfront about it in their communication. That's more then can be said about how they handled the issues when the phone first came out. I got a G2X on launch day and returned it during the remorse period. I left T-Mobile over the experience.

They just deleted that comment ><

Unfortunately, as any Vibrant user will tell you, without an official release, CM will only work half-assed.

I just read that as well and I did not like it at all.
I think we need some how to request a promptly official comment/update on this matter from LG (LG Dev Team, LG Customer Care Dept, LG Folks, LG Product Pro, SmartPhoneGeek).
For me, if I do not hear any official positive LG commitment to their best Smartphone, I will be throwing the towel and asking my money back, because you guys have failed big with your own and with your Customers as well.
By the way, how is the Class Action Lawsuit going?

Well, honestly, I am still inside the buyer's remorse period on my G2X. I may very well return it and eat the $50 restocking fee. I only picked it up 2 days ago.

Optimus 3D Cube - a slightly slimmer sequel

Well the Optimus 3D sequel is finally official and it will be called Optimus 3D Cube. If you ask me specs aren't too impresive. A dual core 1.2 GHz, 16GB of inbuilt memory, 9.6mm thick, Dual 5mpx camera, 4.3" screen, Android 2.3 and that's all that's known for now. Sounds more like a mainstream device than a high-end phone. No word on the amount of RAM yet.
EDIT: Here it will be called Optimus 3D Max. And there's more info about the phone too. Screen resolution is 480x800, TI OMAP4430 CPU, 1GB of RAM etc. Look here http://www.phonearena.com/news/LG-O...cial-glasses-free-3D-just-got-slimmer_id27124

Wow really why release a new device that looks pretty much exactly the same! And then say its gonna have 2.3 on it!! WTF, how about take care of your customers that you already have and update our Thrill 4G. I honestly will never buy a LG product again. This is complete BS... the Optimus 3D got gingerbread and the Rogers Thrill 4G got gingerbread so where the F is AT&T gingerbread?!

I was seriously thinking in selling my O3D and getting this one (yeah, LG again!?!?) IF AND ONLY IF:
1-Ice Cream Sandwich from the box,
2-1GB RAM
3-Bigger resolution screen
4-1700mA Battery or more
Seems RAM is 1GB, but 800x600, 1500mA and they put Gingerbread again ("but we promise you ICS ASAP bla bla bla")...
So, good job LG: I stay with my Optimus (and maybe I'll move to Samsung if Galaxy S3 has 3D, as rumoured).
And for the record:
DEAR LG MORONS: NOBODY CARES IF THIS NEW CRAP IS 1 nanometer slimmer and 1g lighter than O3D. THE PROBLEMS OF O3D ARE NOT WEIGHT OR THINNESS, BUT SOFTWARE AND BASEBAND. ARE YOU LISTENING, LG MORONS?
In terms of software, Android 2.3 Gingerbread is what comes out of the box, but an Ice Cream Sandwich update will be released shortly after the smartphone's launch.

But hey.
that MIGHT be very good news for us IF this NEW-old Optimus 3D gets ICS update fast (yes I know fast - lol). It its like 90% compatible with our O3D in the terms of Hardware, than the port of ICS with working 3D may be possible/easier or whatever. These phones are like 99% the same.

Yea,it's basically the same phone,it uses TI OMAP 4430 just like us O3D,it has 2x5 Mpix camera,same screen...only diference is that new one have 1GB RAM (we have 512MB) so in theory it should be easy to port ICS when it gets it and that GB with that fancy cube

Hmmm...you don't know that,there's no SIM card in it

what is their point to release a new phone with same look similar spec and even software?? LG should check out the hardware like Samsung and software UI like HTC, and also listen to customers complaint. I think that is why the price of O3D dropping ridiculously. I will not go with LG any more if they not change.

I am 99.9% we are not getting Official ICS for G2x

Tmonews is reporting the ICS updates in the near future. The only devices mentioned are GS2, Amaze, and Sensation. I was pretty sure we weren't getting it before but now I am almost positive that we are not. Perhaps if the O2x gets it then we can port it over.
I am waiting to see when will the Galxy Note or Galaxy S3 come to T-mobile. If the date is too far away(We are always that last to get anything) then I am getting a $399 Galaxy Nexus.

Yeah I agree. We aren't gonna see an official ICS update. This phone caused way too many problems for T-mobile/LG. If we were to get an update it should've been before the update for the SGS2 since the G2x came out before that phone.

Although, from that site that you posted look at the very left of the picture. It says G2x with the letters "ch" at the end of a word below it. Maybe there is some hope after all!

More like

Just enjoy GB. TMO released a good GB ROM and CM7 is still pretty awesome for this phone. If ICS comes then cool, if not then just be content or move on to something else.

Look at the picture in the link from the OP
On the left hand side, it says G2X in red font. Below it you can make out the letters "ch" at the end of the word. So maybe that means that the G2X Ice Cream SandwiCH update is overdue????

The G2x is falling behind in the market where everyone wants the Galaxy series (say hello to the galaxy blaze and the soon GS3) or HTC. If no one's been paying attention(and I doubt anyone does) HTC, G series, Samsung, and apple are the sellers. Not Lg, not pantect, not any company thats been a waste of funds for the last 2 decades of cell phones. But again, you know, ROMS aren't official, but they're only thing your G2x will get ICS with.

In my case, I bought a high end android device a year ago expecting it to last me the 2 year contract I was signing with a phone company that would also be good. 13 months later, I read that even with a phone, that spec wise is still great, I won't be able to experience what is being offered by android because the manufacturer simply doesn't care anymore and I have to rely on modification and root to get what I paid for in hard earned cash? and to top it all off, T-Mobile begins charging me for tethering that when I signed the contract was listed as a feature that was included. This is why android, phone companies and all the manufacturers are going to ****. As a consumer we have to put up with all this and go through having to pay for new devices that have the latest "version" because the manufacturers don't want to spend time on a device they have already profited from even though it is fully capable of being up to par with most new devices. XDA, Rootzwiki and all the great people of the shared android community make this bearable, yet it is beginning to not be enough that we have to void a warranty in order to be content. I am tired of this and with the G2x being my 8th android device in 5 years of android I am just done with the same story every time.

It's ridiculous how they tease us

Android smart phones make dummies out of us.

Realistically, LG can only upgrade the international O2x if they make a small attempt, the G2x has to be tested & "approved" by T-Mobile and they're too lazy to do that (they deceptively make it sound like it's completely dependent on LG). So our best hope is to get the O2x's drivers working for a CM9 or AOKP build for the G2x.

I really am iffy about switching to the new 21y update. Should i dive? Or is it a stupid update?
Please LG release ics, your our only hope!

If you use GPS go for it then use CM7.2 RC3.
Though if you're fine and don't have any problems like me, stick with what you got.
