I know the LG Thrill (p925) and LG Optimus 3D (p920) are fairly interchangeable, but to what extent? Do they have the exact same hardware? I've never had any trouble flashing 03D KDZ files on my Thrill, and everything for the 03D seems to work fine for me.
Sorry for cross-polinating between phone forums, but I figured the O3d crowd might know more since it's been around longer.
It's the same exact phone. Literally.

Thanks. Much appreciated.

The only differences are with network stuff...
Like if you flash o3d stuff on to your thrill and you have att or something. Your data speeds may vary and stuff like that... that's all
I never get as fast data speeds when I flash a european based o3d rom on my att thrill

The phones themselves are exactly the same. The basebands are not.

so the o3d can get 4g speeds with the right basband?

Yeah. Flash V20P on it, and it'll work. Minus the fact that no one with an O3D has AT&T.

Well its not like they need it. Most 3G speeds in Europe blow h+ out of the water

So,this is my first post. Been lurking quite a bit though. Not sure if this is the best place for this topic, but I do have a question.
Virgin Mobiles Samsung Instinct says it runs Android 2.2 but flash 10.1 is not available for it, as in it does not show up in the app store. I'm new to the whole Droid world and was wondering if it was Virgin who disabled flash on the device, or if anything can be done to bypass it.
I've searched quite a bit around xda. And Google and could not find any info.
Thanks!

Contacting their support yielded nothing. They wont help me unless I have an account

It's actually the Samsung Intercept. IMO don't pick it up; It's garbage. My 3 sisters have the Sprint version and I had it for a week before switching to the Evo back in August. It's sluggish as hell. Definitely get the LG Optimus V. It's MILES better than the Intercept in every single way.
So the intercept in general wont have flash 10.1 support? Also, the optimus v only has a 600mhz cpu, compared to the 800mhz of the intercept. This phone isn't for me a friend recently got one. I got a t-mo defy and I love it

Yeah but the 800 MHz on the Intercept feels like 500 MHz. Trust me, I have 3 of them in my house. The build quality is absolute crap. The Optimus V is A LOT better.
most released specs look right, but ...
(I don't trust the carriers that much)
Yes, the Thrill is the US version of the Optimus3D.
Hell yeah.

I know these two phones are the same essentially but since there are two different forums I'm assuming that roms and kernel on g2x dont work on optimus 2x?

It might be an easy port since its the same exact hardware minus the radio/antenna, but as far as simply flashing a G2x rom on the O2x then its a problem. It should not work unless its been modified.

Ah ok, cos it seems that g2x are getting the better devs than optimus 2x

Here's a thread warning about flashing an O2X rom onto a G2X. I'm assuming the warning goes both ways.

I'm sorry to hear. I can say that the O2x rom actually looks pretty interesting though. I'd love to try it out.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
o2x roms will work on g2x phones BUT it also flashes a baseband from the o2x that will jack your phone up wont allow you to make calls and there is no way to repair this yet on the g2x
I would really love to try stock optimus2x rom it looks slick kinda surprised no one has ported one over yet
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
same thing is going on with the vibrant and sgs4g their the same phones but if you flash roms from vibrant to sgs4g or sgs4g to vibrant it will brick your phone but the devs found a way so they can flash roms from those phones it will be nice to do something like that between o2x and g2x.
o2x roms and themes are very cool

It's just touchwiz or something really similar. You could replicate it with CM7's Captivated theme and a custom launcher.
Will there be a seperate forum once the US varient is launched or since the Optimistic and Thrill are completely identical will it all just remain here?
Sent from my Dell Streak using xda premium
As Thrill is just a name change I'm guessing they will keep it all here.
As the radio frequency and radio files are probably different I would think it would be a good idea to have separate forums as they do with the lg g2x vs lg optimus 2x

Nope. Same radio and frequency.
From LG USA about the P925:
Frequency
Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE; 850/900/1800/1900 MHz; Tri-band UMTS/HSPA+; 850/1900/2100 MHz

What's strange is my LGP920 is different
Has 900/1700/1900/2100 =/
Can run on T-Mobile USA's 3G network.
I think they'll just keep to the same forum. Not much will be changed anyway. Mine is different, but everything works the same
All I know is they have way too any models. P920, p920h, p925 and p929 and all of them have different frequency combos. So by u calling them the same are u reffering to a p925 and thrill. Or all the models.

So I've been looking at this phone for some time now and I'm currently on the LG thrill 4G and on Straight talk so here are my questions
1. Will it work on Straight talk 3g hspa like my thrill does ?
2. Worth switching ? It seems like the 2x has much better community and LG support and I'm a stickler on good community support
3. Speed ? Is it aosp or similar or is it running lg interface stock
4. Any other comments or things you'd like to tell me about the comparison of the two or anything of importance I should know

Get the t-mobile version sim and you should have 3G.
Yes the phone is good.
You can choose between aosp roms and LG roms. I use CM7.2
Okay thanks for letting me know unfortunate but I have the AT&T card is it absolutely necessary to switch?
Sent from my LG-P920 using XDA
I'd hold off until the galaxy s 3 :/.
This is a phone with amazing potential... but with no support from LG/nvidia, they crippled the hardware with lack of software.
Still good though, but unless you're getting it for cheap... I wouldn't do it.

Just ask them for the t mobile one...
It's necessary if the phone isn't unlocked, if it is unlocked you just won't get 3G.
