G2X Price Drops..?

Anyone else a bit taken back by the drastic price drops on the G2X? Not in a good way... I feel like the G2X could be the Vibrant all over again...

"The best technology never makes you think about it. It's just always brilliant."
- LG G2X Amazon Page
I'm sorry but with all the problems this phone has against it (similar to the Vibrant): Overheating, Shotty Network/Data Connections, Reboots, Lock-ups it seems like T-Mobile is readying for another magic trick. Granted, from what I've gathered reading these forums certain problems (mentioned above) could be completely unrelated. I personally feel that the poorly tinkered network/data connect software T-Mobile f***ed into this phone coupled with the completely separate battery issues are reeking havoc on the phones in a variety of ways.
Just a thought.
As a past Vibrant user (unfortunately) I felt compelled to report the similarities arising again... and all the Vibrant base got [after their woes] was a ****ty Froyo update and the Samsung Galaxy S 4G releasing swiftly via T-Mobile.
I really thought the Vibrant must've been a fluke for T-Mobile, as it was my first leap into the smartphone & Android markets (came from a flip phone, no txts or data). Seems I was wrong in my judgement for trusting them with a second/different product. Don't get me wrong... This phone is great (in theory) but so far it is dragging with bugs and this leaves me torn... =/

Your looking into it way way to much..... All phones on tmobile go on a quick sale... I bought a vibrant for 250 starting my contract in august.... a month later I buy one for a add a line for my brother for 50 bucks..... Its just the tmobile way... A droid x is still 200 in my area.... And a epic 4g is 150

Hm... perhaps. I'll think it over a nice bowl to cool the thoughts down a bit lol, 4:20 is coming a little early this morning I suppose.
I guess I just want a phone that works [ultimately]... Seems like the T-Mobile way is to release half-assed, beta quality products (at least in these eyes, I understand experiences vary). I went along thinking T-Mobile was a great company until I jumped on the Android bandwagon. Guess one can't get too butt-hurt over a company acting as soulless as they do sometimes... it's in their nature. =/

Coming from a vibrant I see where u are coming from. It was the biggest pile of a phone I have ever had. It was also my first android experience after being an avid bb user.
I do see some short comings in my g2x but I hope things don't get bad. I also despise Samsung as a company and blame the vibrant fails on them. It seems ateast to me they push a product hard and never support it. They did the same thing on a TV I bought. After there lack of support on the vibrant I will never own another Samsung product. I just hope the g2x is not the same way.

I respect your point of view but I disagree with you.
I come from a Galaxy S 4G and this phone is way better and faster.
If you are experiencing those kind of issues, I would advise you to exchange it. I haven't really experience those kind of issues and the only real problem to me has been data disconnecting.
Now that I have flashed many ROM's I have come to the conclusion that EB 1.04 is the best and not many disconnections since I settle.

it's still 509 on amazon without a contract tho

I just paid 499 off contract...
If its a contract price I wouldnt pay to much attention to it. I feel they discount the phones to bring it more customers!

Oh well I guess thats not so bad.

This is always the case with phones through places like Walmart and Amazon.

Should I get it?

Found a Captivate on Craigslist for $150. I have an iPhone 3G right now, before that, a Blackberry Bold 9000. Would it be prudent of me to grab this device and try it out for a while before deciding what new Android device to get? Could I have enough fun and time with it before transferring? Thanks for your help!

If it works and doesnt have a cracked screen, it sound like a good deal. Pm me a link to the c list page and i'll give you a better opinion

He lowered the price to $150. Seems like he wants to get rid of it. I could then sell my iPhone 3G to recoup some money back, so I might just go ahead and do it.

No, just offering to look at it for a second opinion. Maybe he missed something in the pics that could answer some questions, like why is someone selling a phone worth about double that for that price. I'm thinking its either bricked or broken.
Op, if you buy it,.update us on condition.

Check the GPS, I like my captivate, except for the GPS...

Almost all modern custom roms take care of that pretty well
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk

If you go the custom ROM route, you'll have an excellent smartphone.
Other than GPS, of course.

I just recently moved to ATT from TMobile where I had the Vibrant. They are currently doing refurb Captivates for $10 (or at least were 2 weeks ago) - if you will sign for 2 years.

I have a captivate, and I've had a 3G before and the captivate is better in my opinion. Its has way more customization plus a noticeable speed increase. And if you jailbroke your 3G there's a computer app called one click that makes it easy to jailbreak or "root" your captivate.

About to buy a G2X

Im about to buy a G2x from someone on craigslist for the low price of $280. Ive been reading the forums all day and it seems like i may just be buying myself some trouble. Im planning on flashing CM7 as i did on all my 3 phones i own right now. WHat should i expect and not expect? Is the phone even worth $280 considering all the issues?

CM7 works perfectly fine for me with the stock kernel. I have absolutelt no problems other than the torch app sometimes acting up. I would nab that deal in a heartbeat. I love my phone. Although it seems as if some phones on weird and slight occasion dont flash properly or just plain have a weird problem with APN's. And it is known that some G2X's dont handle overclocking and undervolting as well as others. I have a theory that alot of the nards that are having major problems all the time are doing something wrong or getting a bad download or something along the lines of that. Good luck and cheers!

i have had no problems with reboots whatsoever. also, if you read a little more you would see that gingerbread has been released by LG. Even though it may not be official a lot of users is reporting positive reviews so far. it's only a matter of time before we see custom roms using this base and our phones will be that much better.

As long as the hardware seems in good working order then yes it's a great buy.

its incredible that the price has gone up so much. i got mine for $99 + free activation! but you should be able to get it for $240. the gingerbread upgrade will fix a lot of issues and cyanogenmod with the latest drivers for gingerbread will take it the rest of the way. If I were you, I would wait until the price comes down but if you have $ to spend then go for it.

just go to them and ask them to price match. I had to try it with three different stores around the area and one of them priced matched so you might have to ask around.

At $280 buy it. Now that GB is out, it going to go up in price when people start catching on, so far update has fix a few issues.

Yea great buy considering the phone sells for $499 plus tax whoever selling it for $280 is either an idiot or brilliant because he selling u a ****ed up phone

What? You can get G2x's for even lower than that on craigslist. It's not that he's selling a broken phone. It just depends on the person. I've seen brand new iphone's go for less than that. It's that some people just don't care to do their research especially if they got the phone on contact... They sell the phone for less than what they paid on contact..

Bye Bye Birdy

If you are like me and don't like threads saying bye to the sub-forum because the user is changing devices feel free to skip the whole rest of this. I usually don't like those threads either.
However, with tongue firmly planted in cheek:
I'm ditching this Droid Charge because:
It didn't wash the windows
It didn't bring about world peace (yes that comes after washing the windows. I likes some clean windows, I do.)
It didn't feed the hungry or clothe the nekked...and man some of those ugly people need some clothes! Why won't this phone stop the insanity?
It didn't provide notifications while the sender was typing the message or before. Really, I would have rather had the notification before the sender woke up that day.
The voices in the phone kept talking to me and I didn't like what they had to say. "If you would like to make a call..."
I couldn't find the Any Key. Hell, I couldn't find any keys period. There were a couple of buttons, but no keys. How the hell am I supposed to open locks without any key?
The battery wouldn't charge itself. I mean, come one. Why is this too much to ask? I just want a phone that absorbs energy from the room...preferably from iPhones. I'd love it if my friend's iPhones batteries would die even faster when my phone was in the room. The OEM developers really dropped the ball on this one.
All kidding aside: This Droid Charge hasn't been stable since I got it. It was 10x better than the Fascinate garbage I came from. I've loaded ROM after ROM and some work better than others. All of them are better than the stock experience and the XDA / RootzWiki developers have my thanks for their help and time. I've had stability problems from day one and even once I'd get them ironed out stability problems would come back regardless of kernel. I've reloaded the PIT and stock ROMS plenty of times. I haven't overclocked or undervolted and this thing acts like I'm running an aggressive scheme.
So, I'm jumping ship to the Droid Razr Maxx. It will be here on Tuesday. Maybe I can sell this thing on eBay for a few bucks with the docks and extra batteries. I didn't want a Motorola phone, but I haven't been impressed with the chances I've given Samsung, so time to try something new. I'm glad that the Droid Razr Maxx has the Super AMOLED screen.
So long and thanks for all the fish.

I envy you....i will wait one year with the phone before i start harrassing vzw for an early upgrade.
Droid Charge 4G LTE

I've been looking myself as well for an upgrade too but my official upgrade doesn't come for another year. My line isn't the "master line" in the family plan that my line is part of. Also, I think we got the family plan after they stopped offering early upgrades for the "master line."
So that means I do one of the following...
Hit up eBay and see if I can get a phone there at a decent price. I'm hoping I can snag a Galaxy Nexus but some of the prices for those phones are going ridiculously high.
Save up and buy the phone at full price.

I had to sat good bye also. Didnt have an upgrade so paid retail for 2 razr maxx. It has been the best phone to date for me atleast. Stock or Rooted it is a great phone and havent had a complaint. By the way I have 2 charges for sale with extras if anyone interested.

Congrats on being able to switch. We all should expect/own a phone that works. For some, the Charge fits the bill. Unfortunately, for others, the Charge is plagued by many flaws.
Personally, I'm waiting for CTIA(and whenever Samsung's event is) to see what's available for Verizon. I have an early upgrade available, but I'll wait it out.

Well everyone that said that their gps worked for them no problem it never worked for use. It took forever. When my wife travels she takes enough stuff with her and needed something that worked. With the maxx we got everything we needed. A phone that locked on within 30 seconds, battery life that is incredible. Most everything we needed was there. People will say buy used. With new we get a warranty and the assurion protection. These can be used for a write off as a business expense.

Scored a Samsung Galaxy Nexus for $400 on Craigslist. I already verified the ESN with Verizon and they say that the ESN is clean. In an hour or so I'm going to be going with a friend of mine to go pick the phone up in a Verizon Retail Store to have the phone checked out by a Verizon store representative as well as activate it on my account.
It has been a nice ride with the Droid Charge but it is time to move on and getting a Galaxy Nexus for $400 is like a dream come true. It is a steal of a deal.

We will definitely miss you... you've been 1 of the better ones around here for a long time.... you have helped more people than I can count... enjoy your new phone you deserve it...

I wouldn't buy moto personally, others seem to like it and from the looks of it it's really smooth. After playing with my moms droid 4, it seems blur makes everything difficult and things aren't as easy to set\ find things (probably been on touchwiz too long and need to explore others). My sister likes her droid 3 and my mom loves hers D4, I hope you will too with the MAXX. Good luck, enjoy that awesome machine!

By the looks of how technolgy for android is acknowledging upgrading our batterys to high mah batterys it seems more of these companys will follow motos lead. Especially since 4g practically destroys these batterys. By the time I have a upgrade devices with quad core and better batterys should be available. Kinda worth the wait.

Goodbye G2x ! Hello Optimus L9!

I gave up on my G2x. Not going to wait for fully functioning ICS or even JB anymore. Even if we get it blue tooth will still be messed up.I'm Selling my P999 on EBAY. Never looking back. Until then I’m rocking a Dell Venue Pro and I'm liking the Windows Phone 7.5 , however I have to go back to Android though because WP7 is sooo limited and boring. Thinking about the L9. Not going to get a Nexus 4 because you cant replace the battery...no SDcard slot... and super crappy battery life. No Thanks.
Any of you guys getting a T-Mobile Optimus l9? What's your take on it?

Probably picking up a GS3 tomorrow. L9 is just another LG pile of failure. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.

I was thinking about the S3 but I decided I don't want town any phone with an Amoled display. The screens don't last long. That's exactly why HTC stopped making phones with Amoled. I'll stick to the longer more durable proven IPS displays. Samsung's answer is to make a Pentile RGBG display to offset the loss in colors over time and that's the best they can do right now. Amoled technology just isn't there yet. I'll wait until they can get all of the colors to be at least at 50,000 hours of operation until then Amoled is a no go.

ROFL. I just sold my G2x for $149.00 just a minute ago. I love Ebay!

I got a nexus 4 and I'm loving it! Don't by branded phones if you want updates
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

Just sold one of my g2xs and now have a rooted HTC one s with jb 4.1.1 ROM. I like the g2x, never had any of the problems others had, and I prefer the gb UI to the jb UI. Also the voice search worked a lot better on the g2x, and the g2x is smaller. But I give up on the g2x ever getting jb, even though it's basically capable, and the upgrade to jb makes for a tremendous improvement in user satisfaction as related to speed and smoothness. LG has effectively cheated is out of a year more of use of our g2xs unless we are willing to put up with the maddening stuttering of the pre-jb Android, which comes off as a kluge compared to jb.
But beyond the improvement in speed and smoothness, every iteration of Android since gb has been a step downward in usability. The Android UI is now a make-work project for designers at Google and while it might look better, it's become harder and less intuitive to use. Leave well alone, for goodness' sake.
The One s is about as big a phone as is comfortable for me, and much thinner and lighter than the g2x. It looks like a skinny adolescent Nexus One. I had to take some shears to my SIM card, and it doesn't have an interchangeable battery or SD card, don't care about the battery but would like to have a SD card. The One s was about $100 less than a Nexus 4, and was available now. Haven't seen any problems with the AOKP jb ROM.
The speed of this phone plus the accessibility of TMO's 41Mbps HSPA+ network makes differences in browser speed very noticeable. That plus the impossibility of seeing bookmarks in list form in the jb browser means I'm now using Dolphin and Maxthon. The bookmarks thing is another fail of Google trying for what it thinks is good design. The apps drawer also now swipes sideways, what for?, and the launcher functionality in general. Including the handling of apps and widgets, has become very awkward. Thank goodness for nova and launcher pro.
I reckon it'll be a lot harder to get reliable updates for my rooted one s than for the Nexus 4 but the speed of the one s with 4.1.1 is very satisfying and the UI changes Google is now making are making the experience worse. So I have no incentive to update beyond my jb version, so no incentive to get a Nexus 4.
End of rant.
Sent from my HTC One S using xda app-developers app

Well I guess Google can't please everyone. Personally, I dislike GB and everything before it. JB is such a huge improvement that I prefer the broken JB ROMs to the fully functional GB ROMs.
I have found nothing unintuitive about the operating system so far. I've always been able to figure out how to do something by just doing what makes sense to me. I'm not a big user of bookmarks, mostly because nowadays the predictive URL history is good enough to make opening bookmarks slower than just typing a few letters into the URL bar and pressing enter. However, I don't mean to say they're completely useless; I just don't use them. In any case, Android was made in such a way that you have access to different browsers and can integrate them as if they're the native browser, so that problem has a solution. With the app drawer, sideways is much more consistent. You only ever access the app drawer from the home screen, which scrolls sideways, so it only makes sense to not make the user have to start scrolling a different way.
I don't intend for this post to say, "your opinion is wrong!" so don't take it that way. I just wanted to point out it's kind of unfair to hate on Google and call it their fault just because you don't like something. JB has been called the best thing to happen to Android by almost everyone I've talked to about it, so I think it's safe to say it's just personal preference that you don't like it.
To each his own

Nexus 4 would've been the way to go. Battery is lasting just as long as it was with my G2x... Around 15 - 16 hours with decent usage. (Lots of Facebook, XDA, browsing with Chrome, some Instagram, and 200+ sms messages.)

In mint condition. No scratches or blemishes what so ever, and to me that is amazing since its been a love and hate relationship with it. I felt like I wanted to throw it somtimes, lol! I dislike Gingerbread, but for other people its fine. I just want a phone with ICS fully working at least. I'm eyeing that L9. I was thinking about the Nexus 4 but too many people complaining about battery life. The L9's battery lasts all day with heavy use. The lack of an SD slot on the Nexus 4 doesn't help in its favor either.
Don't get me wrong, in some ways I'll miss my G2x. Sadly it's a good phone that LG left behind without an ICS update. It's a constant reminder that I'd like to forget.

Im curious about the phablet note 2...any tmobile peps notice they are now having everyone pay nearly full price for the phones on a value plan or $20 higher if you choose classic plan...what's up with that? Old upgrade procedure was when it was time to upgrade u got full discounted phone when renewing 2 yr agreement? Or am I missing something...

I got mine for 200 with a 100 mail in rebate. Plus $50 gift card for a new line.
My bill is only 20 more than my 30 dollar unlimited plan and I actually have minutes now.

I sold my G2x for $120 cash, I got it for $150 back in June 2011 so it wasn't a huge loss.

Stay away from AMOLED phones. Why buy a phone with a display that will decay over time? LCD technology is well proven and mature, no screen decay and burn in. The color blue on an AMOLED display still suffers from the fastest decay. 12,000 hours or so. I say F-That! AMOLED is just not ready for consumer use yet. I shudder to think of anyone getting a AMOLED TV as well. If you want somthing that lasts stay LCD/IPS in a phone. Stay away from AMOLED devices right now.

im buying a SIM unlocked Galaxy Nexus for 280 with 2 spare batteries. good deal?

I would just save the cash for a new n4

Yeah I thought so. I was offered 300 for a Toshiba laptop that's got a really nice body and a 3.8 core 2 duo. Cheaper than an Asus transformer
