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.

IPS = In Plane Switching. Here is a link explaining the technology.

Thank you sir. I half knew what it was but only remember seeing it implented on phones with resolutions higher than 800x400. But that has cleared up my confusion.

Galaxy S 4G (rooted) or Sensation (rooted)???!

Okay not sure where to have put this, but since my wife & I have these phones (I use the Galaxy S), I'm wondering if you guys can help me decide here.
I currently use the Galaxy S (rooted) and it works nice for me. I love the photo quality and nice screen, even though seems a bit bright regardless of settings.
But using my wife's phone (Sensation - NOT rooted yet), the Sensation just feels better to me for some reason?!? I'm not too sure how the photo quality is, but I do like that it has a flash & led notification.
So basically I'd like to get some opinions on people who actually root their phones, not the opinion of an everyday android user who doesnt root.
What are the pros & cons?? Because if I want to, I can just give her the Galaxy S and I'll take the Sensation.

Well the sensation is dual core with a better resolution. I prefer sgs4g though for the screen.

Sensation for sure

Look for screen filter in the market, you can lower the screen brightness more than the stock minimum settings.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App

Sensation for sure. SGS4G is good for what it is, but Sensation is in another league. Especially if you like flashing a variety of ROM's.

If you want led notifications root and flash the bali kernel it lets you use bln (download in market) it turns the the bottom buttons into a notification light

Thanks for input guys.
I dont have the Bali kernel, but may consider it.
I guess I'm just over the Vibrant/Galaxy feel?!?
I see my wife's Sensation and it feels sturdier to me, plus the fact that it is dual-core, I would assume would let me do more with less lag right? I always seem to be using my phone for surfing or streaming on wifi that may demand a lot from the phone.
I think I'm gonna just swith with her.

TBH there is no real noticeable speed increase with dual core.
But I would chose the Sensation purely because a 4.3" qHD screen looks so amazing... Plus it has more RAM and on board memory than the GS4G.

Definitely Sensation. G2x doesn't have a qHD plus it's .3'' smaller.
The G2x just has far too many hardware problems and such that I have read. The Sensation's development will now boom with the emergence of CM7.
Plus you'll get a variety of ROM's that you won't get on the G2x, mainly you'll have the option of Sense 3.0 ROM's which the G2x doesn't have of course.
Plus the Sensation has 50% more RAM than the G2x if you like playing heavy games.

mt4gs vs. g2x

i recently got a mytouch 4g slide and i am wondering if i should trade it for a g2x and want to know what your ideas.

i wouldn't.
g2x has craploads of issues and tegra2 is inferior (imo) to dual core snapdragon.
i tried a tegra 2 device and it sucks balls compared to my mt4gs, it can't even handle youtube 480p properly

that is kinda of the problem i am running into with the mytouch is there is not a whole lot of roms and mods compared to the g2x but then i saw the difference in hardware specs and was unsure. i am not a big fan of sense overlay, its rather ugly and slow i have to run a ics launcher just to tolerate it.

maybe in a parallel universe.
if you are talking benchmarks then yes, but just try to do some actual stuff and you'll see the difference. i repeat, tegra 2 has issues even with 480p youtube videos which is RIDICULOUS for a dual core processor (it lacks NEON instructions, lol). Meanwhile i can watch 1080p high profile videos on my mt4gs with diceplayer...

point made i have found on the g2x forums this problem on several instances. but i am really not liking what i am seeing as far as android 4.0 roms for the mt4gs, and i dont know how or if a mt4g rom can be ported to a mt4gs rom

it is highly likely that we will have both official ICS and CM9 ICS, but nothing is confirmed and we could always get the short end of the stick and get none.

I HIGHLY recommend not getting a G2X. I went through 2 different G2X phones and had software issues with both of them. There was seriouse development issues with the LG G2X and was a nightmare trying to get the issues resolved. (they never were resolved and I ended up selling the phone on EBAY) LG and T-Mobile never wanted to take responsibility for the hardware/software flaws and never really publicly acknowledged the issues. It seems like they even went as far as taking the phone off their shelves for a couple months in the summer due to the poor quality control. Just read the reviews on T-Mobile's own site, it's a garbage phone.
Save yourself time and trouble and get anything else other than a G2X.

Not take a side cause that would defeat the purpose. Of asking on hear, but thee bugs with the g2x have been shown and from what I have read (could be wrong). Can be fixed by several tweaks but mt4gs I haven't seen as much about bugs needed to be fixed ( although might be to new ) at this point ?

I thought the same - as in there wasn't really any bad lag. After switching to a SGSII, I'll say that's not exactly true
But the Cappy was an awesome phone.

Beside the gain in processing speed that a working fast locking GPS is a dream come true for me.

Sensation 4g vs G2x

So I side purchased a HTC sensation to compare wit our G2x and I have to say the G2x is not even comparable with it. The games run so horrible laggy on the sensation and the screen is so unclear compared to IPS display. The only good thing is the camera and even so it still performs horribly in dark places compared to the great flash and focus of the G2x. Here is where Tegra's chip making is superior and I noticed everything from battery life to app loading, multi tasking and even ICS performance was better even if the Sensation has leaked official firmware. So props to all the devs that have made our G2x comparable to such phones as the HTC Sensation and more.

Did you root the sensation and flash custom roms and launcher? Give us some more details on the testing you did. Lotta factors go in to determining a good comparison, processor, UI, battery etc...

Yes, full s-off & ran various gingerbread systems including sense, stock, aosp, and miui. But to be fair, since I'm running CM9 on my G2x I loaded Android Revolution ICS Sense 3.6 and even alpha Sense 4.0 to compare ICS functionality. Through out 2 weeks I tested battery life and that's how I came to the conclusion that the G2x is overall better. Their is way more devs on the sensation but because of the size most of each ROM or mod is very unsupported unlike our community where we have a few but very dedicated devs with amazing rom's.

i owned a evo 3d which is very similar and its not a bad phone. you guys have better dev support honestly.
I dont play games.......so i cant say anything about that
The G2X does have a better display i feel, the hi rez evo 3d one was ehhhh.....
i do miss the larger screen just a little bit but not too much. for me...(abq, nm) I finally get 4g ish speeds. usually 3-5 mbits down everywhere in my city.

I love the qHD rez of the Sensation, but after playing with them for around 15 minutes, I liked the G2X more. The screen is brighter, clearer, I like the aesthetics of it, and the 1.3 mp FFC compared to the VGA on the Sensation. The Sensation was thinner I think, but also a bit slower. Not sure if this had to do with Sense running the whole time or the Snapdragon CPU being crap. It has 768 MBs of RAM compared to our 512, so I thought it would handle multitasking better.

I really wanted the sensation because I do like the look of the HTC devices. Now I want an Amaze but I am very content with the G2x. May pick one up to play around with at some point.

At one point of time I swore by HTC device. After exploring around with different manufacturers ie Samsung, LG etc. I'm not so thrilled by their lower hi class devices such as the Sensation, Evo 3D etc.
I have had my share of ppcs, androids and etc. I adore the performance of my G2x and tegra 2.

+1 I've owned HTC, Samsung and LG devices and I would put HTC's hardware as dead last out of the bunch. I use a co-worker's Sensation pretty often and there is no comparison between the two devices. The camera, the lone redeeming quality of the Sensation, takes pictures that look good on the device, but terrible once you view them in full size on a tablet or computer. I was tempted to get a Sensation when I bought the G2X because it had a fully functional ICS ROM (albeit one that is a Sense ROM with Sense stripped instead of AOSP). I'm glad I chose the G2X. The Sensation is not a bad phone, just not a great one either.

Heck yeah.. That's very close to my experience also. I'm very glad I choose the G2X too.
When i was shopping around for a T-Mobile device I was looking to go back to a up to date sense device. I read that HTC is going to slim down on sense on future device so it doesn't tax the ram as much as it do.
