[Q] LG Optimus S Forum?

I have an LG Optimus S that has been rooted, and considering the low price, High functionality, and availability it seems strange to me that The LG Optimus S and LG Optimus T do not have forums on XDA-Dev.
Is there any plans to add forums for this amazing phone?

bumpity bump bump

Will help you bump

Bumping for HOPE and CHANGE. HOPING that the lack of a forum will CHANGE.

Among the best phones i've seen for efficiency off-the-shelf

Just wanting to keep the request for a optimus s/t forum going...

Isn't the Optumus S and T the same as Optimus One? There is already an Optimus One section, maybe we can just call it LG Optimus and add the S and T info there?

There's an OC Kernel and ROM out on other forums... I'm OC'ed to 800Mhz, SPEED DEMON.
And for the love of god... add the thread already!

Do you have the LG Optimus T or the LG Optimus S? I'm not entirely sure what the difference in the two are, but I know the S is for Sprint, and the T is for T-Mobile. I have an LG Optimus T, and I want to overclock!!

Would love to see a section for the optimus S

Yeah I would say that it is time we get a forum… Android Central is the only respectable forum I know about for the LG Optimus S. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE MAKE A FORUM FOR THE LS670!!! Thanks!!!

Can we get a response at all on the status of an LS670 forum? lol

Bump
sent from my hero aosp2.2 cause aospcm7 2.3 was not as fast or stable for me.

Any luck with this for a Sprint Optimus S lg670kit CDMA?
My friend picked up one.

[Q] Optimus 2x ROMs/Kernals on G2x

This may be a dumb question; however, is it possible to install Roms and kernals from the Optimus 2x on the G2x and vice versa? I googled and someone said you could considering that the main difference between the phones are the radios where one supports 4g (not true 4g) and the other does not. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Do NOT flash anything made for the O2X. Ever. Best case, it won't do anything. Worst case, your phone will brick.

There are two reasons I don't mind that it is 6 months away.
1. CM9 will be out before then
2. It might possibly be an actual upgrade not just a "here you go have fun and stop complaining" like GB was for us.

Haha, CM9 is gonna be amazing.
and I hope not!

Hmm, 2Q ends June 30 -- sounds like "by summer" to me!

That's the point. Carriers don't make money by updating phones, they make money by selling new ones.

The G2X is not listed, why didn't LG list them with their LG-P designations too? Looks like the G2X is an unwanted orphan.

Optimus line I believe almost all Cell companies LG, Samsung, HTC, they care more about their Euro versions more when it comes to advertisement. I'm about 90% sure we will get it and it is not the orphan child, cause we got GB (even if it was a poop build) before Optimus 2X did.

O hai!
It's another ICS thread.
Let's get this parteeeeeeey started!

No. Carriers make money by keeping subscribers. Selling phones at subsided prices doesn't make them any money.
Keeping existing customers is also much cheaper than getting new ones.

I am very dissapointed...wish i had the money to get a Nexus Galaxy...its very unfair that our devices will only get the upgrade near the end of its life....there will be no point updating to ICS in 2/3rd quarter of the year...everyone would have either upgraded to something with ICS...or moved to a device that will have ICS much sooner.
LG you suck, and you need to start focusing on making tvs or washing machines...or what ever the hell else you do...stop making cell phones..you suck at it.

LG just confirmed this means the G2X. Clarifying Optimus 2X = G2X
G2X owners are too vocal to be ignored. If with lackluster T-Mobile sales.

Crap!!!! I am done with this phone. On my way to Verizon to get me the nexus I love T-Mobile but they stop getting good phones now new year new carrier.

Where is the confirmation from LG for the G2X? I checked the official announcement which does not mention the G2X and don't tell me it is an Optimus 2X cause it isn't.

Doesn't matter. Most of us will have a new phone by then.

Link please. Despite what PhoneNews.com and some here are saying, 2x does NOT equal g2x. The g2x actually had gingerbread before the 2x and roms are NOT compatible between the 2. Unless LG themselves say specifically G2X then there is no guarantee of an update.

In Canada the P999 and P990 go under the same name, the Optimus 2X. The only one with a license to call it the G2X is T-Mobile because they wanted to continue their G line. I assume that LG wants to go by the name it was originally intended to use. It'd be much clearer if they just used model numbers.

P990><=p999 this discussion again .....
NVIDIA NEVER AGAIN!

If what you say meant anything for updates then explain why the Wind version never received an official update to Gingerbread considering it is even fully compatible with the G2X? The carrier has to request and test the update.

Lg Optimus 3D

Ok,lets see.Resently i want to buy a optimus 3d and im still asking myself-is the 3d like 3d or just a screen.What to buy a optimus 3d or galaxy nexus?

I have one and love the 3D, really is good so if you must have 3D its great but other than that feature there are a lot better phones out there and the new optimus 3D is said to come out in 2013 if you really want best 3D might be worth holding off buying till then.

galaxy nexus too,
next year,i will buy one

I'd take the Galaxy Nexus. The Optimus 3D is real nice, but the early updates are a grand feature for the Nexus.

Trust get the nexus

Its a pretty good phone for it's price.
It just has horrible battery life. (Even worse than DHD imo)

I have it on the table
it is hard and big brick
but 3d photos are SO COOL

Battery life is much improved with gingerbread but still not great. I used four percent in three hours playing mp3s which is good but as soon as you touch gaming etc you eat battery life up.
I think I played game dev story for about two hours before my battery got low. I would get bigger battery if you get optimus 3D and intend gaming.

That's actually pretty good, musicwise, my LG optimus black (P970) downs 5-6% with just one hour of playing mp3s exclusively :S
Is it worth to upgrade to Optimus 3D?

If you like 3D then yes but to get battery life I had to root mine then use gemini app manager to kill lg bloatware apps. Problem is that if you get one and update it you will get v21b which patches the ability to root as mine is v21a.
It is good and people claim cyanogen mod 9 will make it better but it does only have 512mb ram. That said though high def 3d videos play flawlessly and the game converter is great

I love the Optimus 3D but if u have the option... u should get Galaxy Nexus

I personally would go with the nexus. Once you get bored of the 3d gimmic the phone is pretty standard in my opinion.

prefer galaxy nexus...

I went through 3 of the AT&T version, the Thrill. Each one was defective, and the third got so hot the adhesive around the screen melted after 2 days. Plus, and this is personal opinion, the 3D just gave me headaches.

That would put me off. Mine is the european model and never gets hot so maybe thrill is different in more than just name?

[Q] Which Virgin Mobile Phone?

Hello,
I am searching for the best phone on the Beyond Talk Virgin Mobile plan. I am looking for a phone that has a lively dev/hacking scene and has the size of something like a Droid X.
To all of you who think I am re-posting I have not seen a thread with the new phones in the lineup.
Thank you for your time in advance!

Any answers?

Wow what a question. There are a couple of nice phones out there. I would prefer an android device as those have the most dev attention.
The Galaxy S3 has a very powerfull GPU. I played around with the HTC One X for a while. Ok, it is really big but nice...
I think it will make it into the official CM9 soon.

Here are the phones
-Motorola triumph
-HTC Evo 3d 4g
-LG optimus elite
-HTC wildfire S
-LG optimus V
-Samsung intercept
-LG optimus slider
-Venture
If you want a screen size like the Droid then the motorola triumph is for you, then there is the new HTC evo 3d 4g with a big screen and new 4g. Alot of Dev support for the phones are HTC evo 3d 4g, lg optimus V, motorola triumph and more is starting on the lg optimus elite. If you are looking for something affordable (under $200) then the new lg optimus elite is what you want, 1 ghz processor, super fast, great screen, phone feels big in hands and more IMHO It's the best phone virgin mobile has out (other then the Motorola triumph or HTC evo 3d 4g)
