That's true but having to stare @ "T-Mobile" every time I look down at my phone is different from driving around in a clearly labeled Ford.

lol whatever the reason is, it's one of my pet peeves. I find this type of branding an annoyance, I would have been fine with it saying "LG." But the T-Mobile logo just distracts me, I'd like to have it removed. But since the procedure is a bit expensive, case closed

Sell your phone and buy the G2x from wind, it says "LG" instead of "T-Mobile".

Yeah but then would you be pissed to advertise for LG?
Or have they pissed you off less? XP

I wonder how strong his hate is. Maybe he did not notice the tmo when he purchased the phone or was disoriented for various reasons. Maybe he intended to purchase a sprint phone and became confused. An odd post to say the least. I am interested to see if he spends the $$$ to change it out.

Use a black Sharpie and scribble it out or use some black electrical tape lol

I am with you on this. I am looking at an unlocked HTC Amaze. It isn't a T-mobile Amaze, it is a HTC Amaze.
When I drive my Ford Escape, I am driving a Ford Escape, not the Joe Blogg's car dealer Escape. I always remove dealer branding from vehicles and wish I could do it with the HTC Amaze. I also don't wear clothing with huge logos on them.
At the moment I have a Samsung Nexus S 4G, even that has too much branding on the back it says both Google and Samsung. It should say one or the other.

My G2x came without the T-Mobile branding

got a free G2x with water damage.

I got a free G2x from a buddy. phone's water damage stickers are red but he cant remember it ever getting soaked in water. He found the phone dead and then we noticed the stickers. the phone wont turn on and since I know LG or T-Mobile wont exchange it I figured id try to repair it myself. A friend told me that I should open it and clean the corrosion with some rubbing alcohol but I cant find any help online? Has anybody tried to do that to G2x or any phone for that matter? Any help would be appreciated
The phone is most likely dead..
I know I'm going to hear some **** for what I'm about to say but when has that ever stopped me.
I'm not going to give you specifics or tell you what I would do but those water damage indicators can be replaced. You can find them multiple places online. After you replace them, its up to you to decide what to do.
Have a good day.

Yup, that's how I imagined the comments would look like. I'm just glad you beat them to it.
By the way, I'm glad I kept the G2X. Right now I'm browsing the XDA forum and playing Riptide at the same time. I do have to pause the game every once in a while though.

lol I know right... That riptide is the ****. Graphics are amazing on that game. I really think the tegra is a great cpu/gpu combo. Honestly looking at the photon @ 1ghz tegra and a skin vs the htc 3d and its 1.2 snapdragon with a skin, the photon just seems to out perform it in anything.
You could shed more light as you got rid of sense on the sensation. So both stock say bump the tegra to 1.2ghz, which one performs the best? At the same clock speed?

If you'd like to take the honest way out, there is a complete photo disassembly guide here.
Riptide is way cool on my 55" Sony. I gotta get a longer HDMI cable though, 6 foot ain't long enough.
P.S. Anyone who would receive a damaged phone for free then conceal the damage and attempt to return the phone for a new one is a thief pure and simple. If there were any justice at all those actions would result in prosecution and incarceration.
Perhaps you should make your way to a public square where you can smash the windows out of a T-Mobile store and just take whatever you want. After all, those rich bastards deserve it don't they?
We are doomed.

Not to be an ass, but isn't LG a thief? They sold us a phone with software that is horrible. Some of us who rely on our phones for simple task such as an alarm are late for work when the phone freezes. T-Mobile sold most of us a so called unlimited plan, but we get data throttled. T-Mobile claims 21+mbps, but no one has seen speeds anywhere close to that. I guess everyone is a thief. To each his own.

I agree, T-Mo has been less than honest with us. They should suffer the consequences of that breach of trust.
Not only will stealing from T-Mo make it harder and more expensive on the rest of us, but also the simple truth is... two wrongs don't make a right.

You're definitely right about two wrongs don't make it right, but I highly doubt that T-Mobile will buckle down that much on phones getting replaced especially since they know that the G2x has ton of software issues. The best thing T-Mobile and LG can do is to just make it right. It wasn't for the devs on XDA then we'd be ass'd out.

Yeah just how honest T-Mobile is in sending u dud broken LG g2x phones still ........as long as u are not killing people or robbing from the starving I say do what u gotta do .......
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
All Tmobile does is looks at the sticker under the battery needed for a swap for a refurb. They all get thrown in a bunch and sent back to LG.
As long as it is visibly not RED, you'll be fine.
Sad part is one of us will probably end up with it, lol.

Wow. Seriously?

I just thought this was worth sharing.
I own an MT4G. In my year of having it I have gone through 6 replacements.
None with the SO Type 2 Panel.
Tonight (actually 10 minutes ago) I just got back from buying my wife an MT4G.
It has a cracked digitizer but otherwise works just fine.
The touch screen is still responsive in every corner and every side.
Even where it's cracked. I got this phone for 30 bucks. 30....
My wife now has a MT4G with a superior screen. SO Type 2.
FML!
P.S. She won't switch with me even though she doesn't see the difference.
She just knows that I want it, she has it, I don't have it and that's the way she likes it.

All you gotta do is turn off the phone (make sure fastboot is off)
then boot in to bootloader.
Hold volume down and press the power button. Hold it until you see the bootloader screen.
Go down to system info and look for something along the lines of SH-C2 or SO-C2.
SO is superior, SH is not.
Good luck.

Saturation? Color? Contrast?
30 bucks... can it be any cheaper?
The screen is just seriously washed out in comparison. I don't want to use any terms incorrectly, so im just gonna keep it at that.

I went through several bad screens before getting a good one, and wife still has the bad one. I was checking out my friend's Sensation and immediately noticed that he has the bad screen. Apparently HTC is still shipping both screens even on their latest models. Will definitely be cautious if I go with another HTC phone after this.
I'm expecting my 2nd MT to arrive tomorrow.
If I haven't seen the bad screen, would I even know something is off? Like if my first phone had a bad screen and the new one does to, would I even guess that there's a problem?
I mean do you have to see a good and bad one side by side to know the difference?
Or is it like watching HDTV for years then trying to watch a show on an old 1920's black and white?

[Q] Dropped my skyrocket!

ok so i just got my skyrocket about a week ago. And i dropped it and the chrome around the phone chipped pretty bad. I tried to go into today to say like the phone was laggy and stuff. Then the associate said just restart the phone. Then i asked her about what the insurance policy is and i asked about the chipped chrome and she told me to go to the AT&T service center and said they would swap it out. i went which is about like 30 min away from me and once i got there they said they wouldn't do it. Anybody know what i can do to replace it?
Brick it?

You should have had a case from day 1. They will not replace a phone with serious visual defects unless the defects are from manufacturing. Also, bricking the phone will not do it either since it has been dropped. You're just gonna have to deal with it. Sorry.

G2X went for a swim with me on the 4th.....

My phone decided it wanted to go for a swim on the 4th and is dead. Tried bag of rice to no avail. I have the insurance and was given the choice of the HTC Sensation or Galaxy S2. Went with the Galaxy.
Anyway, I just want to say thanks to everyone on this forum for the awesome ROM work and support over the last year or so. It's too bad we can't get the display drivers API from LG so we can get some ICS with working video love, but oh well.
Again, just want to thank everybody. I will now be hanging in the Galaxy S2 forums until my full discount comes into effect in February and I can get the S3.

Enjoy the GS2...

I called in and asked them what the replacement was. They said that the G2x is discontinued and not available as a replacement, so they gave me the option to choose between the SG2 and the HTC Sensation. When I said the SG2, they even gave me the option to choose between Black or White. I chose black.

Similar situation here. They apologized that the g2x wasn't available and offered me a Sensation. I played it off as I hadn't heard of that phone before and asked if she'd mind waiting a minute while I looked at the phone online. She said sure and that I should check out the GS2 as well, that was another alternative. I said I was familiar with that and chose it, opted for white
Well as I stated in other post I was needing a replacement so I called in. But they didn't offer me a different phone. They shipped out the same one. Its cool with me but weird how "its not available" but I got one

Yea and he more then likely had to pay. That's just how T-Mobile does. Anything aside from hardware defaults you have to pay about 100-130 not sure exact price

If you have insurance call them up tell them what happened and they will either offer you a different phone like gs2 or the same for that 100ish. I needed a new phone but they didn't offer me the gs2 they just sent me the same. But then again it was a free exchange so who knows

I had to pay too, said the phone was acting up, battery dropping quickly, had to pull battery constantly. I also told them that I stooped at my TMobile store and they suggested I call them.
I've had to pay in the past too, fire a charging port issue. I believe you always have to pay, no matter what happened. I received a refurbished phone, perfect condition.

It was $130, and worth it. Stable Ics ROM, larger screen which is beautiful and works great outdoors.
