just bought a g2x

must say im very impressed with this phone, coming from an epic 4g this phone is 10x better. love the variety of roms and all of the features.rooting was a breeze. Thanks devs for making this phone that much more awesome.

Welcome! It's nice still seeing people having an interest in this phone. I'd recommended flashing the latest CM7 nightly, and a kernel with Voodoo sound.

Welcome aboard man. The G2x is a worlds better than any of the first generation Galaxy S's. And I'm sure you've already learned that.
As already mentioned, CM7 is awesome. Have fun!

cm9 infuse?

will the infuse get the cm9?
i know cm9 is released on galaxy s. so are we able to port cm9 ?

offically i would think not
port possibly

Seeing as how we would be lucky to even get a stock, AOSP type ICS rom, I highly doubt a souped-up version A.K.A CM9 would be available on our infuses.
With that said, LinuxBozo is a genius..

I hope it comes to our infuse, cm is really all I use now. Performance is above all others without overclocking.

Technically the infuse falls under the android update alliance agreement thing.

I don't see a reason why it won't be on the Infuse. Sure, it might be a port and not an official build, but does that really matter in the end?

thanks for the ans.
i was just wondering it we're able to port it

Holds as much merit as a pinky swear. Probably less.

Its not like cm7 at all....that's why its called cm9...

TEAM Battery Bar

If you like MIUI battery and your rom does not have the option. This app works wonders made by pvyParts. Added it to CM7 and it works great. Got to give much props to this guy.

Here some pictures. Think this will help people that don't root or have rom's that don't have the option.

Thanks for sharing Marcus this is slick.

No problem. I know tons of people like it but don't want to go the miui route

Sorry Marcus never actually used it... You just sounded so sad in the decks forum wanting comments.... Was the least I could do.

Wasn't sad at all lol. Actually pretty happy ;D

Idk how this is possible since I thought this had to be worked into the framework? But whatevs I'm not complaining. Nice find!

can anyone get the superman battery bar from the RCR rom?

I love the battery bar that was on of the biggest features I missed from windows mobile 6.5 well the mod at least not windows. Anyways I remember there being animation while charging changing color will that ever make it to our version.

Hahahaha. I remember the same mod for WinMo. I used to use it, too. Can't even remember what it was called. WinMo had so much great development. I miss aspects of it, pretty happy with android now, though. I only switched to android initially cuz of the locked down nature M$ was headed toward with winphone7. Gotten to like android, though.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

I know miui and some cm7 kangs have the charging animations. But I know this apk doesn't have it. Sorry guys. I still enjoy the bar at the top.

Cm9 Themes

I've seen other phones get ICS themes like the SGSll and I was wondering if we could get themes on the g2x. The blue is too much for me.

We will soon enough, I don't think themes are at the top of the list of things to get working right now

Ya lol I'm just hoping they fix video camera more than anything
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium

Don't hold tour breath without drivers they might as well only work on things that coding can fix for now. I'm sure most would prefer more function then video... I know I do... they sure are making amazing progress nonetheless.

T-Mobile G2x & MIUI first try

Thanks man! Also, I keep having to manually connect to my carrier and receive an invalid sim errorerror. I noticed its after I disconnect from wifi or after I lose service. That's enough for me to switch back!
UPDATE: NVM, the invalid sim error I was receiving was just because I lost service. The sim is read after I regain service. Though the network must be manually configured the first time around. After that, everything is fine.
I do miss some of the CM7 perks though. Like speech to text, or when I get a notification, I can slide individual noties away.
MIUI has a GB feel with a ICS look. So, I'm sold. I'm switching over and leaving CM7 in the dust.

When I take a screen shot, it says the file is corrupted. That's so crappy. The UI still outwieghts the bugs!!
UPDATE: I fixed the screenshot issue by installing the CM7 screen shot apk. I have it if anyone needs it.

Give it time, lol... I swear everything I try out weighs stuff but I always go back to cm7 you'll miss some features. Which did you flash?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium

Which version of MIUI? What pros are there over CM7.2?
I've always felt that MIUI looks like an iPhone knock off.

I felt the same but I'm on this LewaOS and its great

Haha couldn't be more true! Everytine I try and switch... I always end up back with CM7 lol IDK this though MT3G. This ROM is sick(until I run into a problem)! It hhas the Gingerbread feel but the ICS look! I don't want to out my phone down!
I flashed the GB Miui.us from rootwiki by team kang. Which is the same guys who build CM7 & 9.
I really think this is the answer to all the users who want the ICS look and the stability and feel of GB!
I reccomend this to anyone who hasnt tried it but loves CM7!
Battery life is really good too!

I have had the IPhone 4 and gave it up for the G2x. No regrets btw! And I feel that it looks nothing like a IPhone knock off. Although it does reminds me of CM9 somewhat.
The look and feel of it is just perfect! Like an integration of CM7 & CM9. This version was ported by Kang anyway. The battery life is better than CM7 too. CM7 does have quite a few things I miss though! Like speech to text, being able to slide individual notifications off/out, just small things that CM7 gives you but the look and feel this has makes me forget about those little perks CM7 provides.
Just try it out for yourself and you will see what I mean. Its better that you experience it yourself. We are 2 entirely different people and what I might find interesting or awesome is most likely going to be awesome lol just kidding but you should try it out for yourself!

Have you tried the LewaOS port in the development section? I think it's worth a shot as I was using it earlier and it's overall really good.
