Regarding cost: You can already preorder the O3D at Amazon.de, and the recommended retail price is just 50€ above the 2x/Speed, and the 3D has better build quality, OMAP4, Dual Channel RAM and 4.3" screen.
[LG Optimus 3D] fen_nyc:
Right about that; however, I recall when these phones were previewed after MWC, retailers like Expansys listed a difference of over $100... now it's down to $70. If it remains this low upon US retail release, then T-Mo/At&t customers will have something to cheer about this spring! :D
[LG Optimus 3D] zedklind:
I'm comparing the o3d to other LG android phones. Look at the optimus 2x for instance, its ready for roms and the US version hasn't been released yet. The releases of LG phones are expected in the UK and Korea before the US giving developers time to work on them. On another note I buy phones in priority like this; Android, hardware, custom rom capable, extra features. 3D is just an extra feature to show off to friends. Its gimicky IMO. Id leave it off until I wanted to show it off. The a9 OMAP4 destroys the dual core a8 in the evo 3d and even beats out the tegra 2.

[LG Optimus 3D] fen_nyc:
Yes, that's the same order of importance I'll follow before buying a new device. :) However, I wouldn't be so quick to say that 3D is a gimmick. Maybe 10 or 20 years ago but not now when movie theaters, TVs, PC graphic cards & 3D monitors, home/handheld console gaming, & now mobile phones- 3D is no longer a gimmick. What's changed? Well, tech has vastly improved to allow HD quality films & stills & most importantly, consumer

affordability

. The audience maybe split for now but look at Avatar- 3D's not going dormant like it did in the past.

I know the community & Android fans are mildly upset @ LG & HTC for introducing awesome dual-core chips like the OMAP & the 1.2GHz Snapdragon & then having 3D tag along- which effectively limits the quality of the camera lens. You have to wonder then, when these two devices are pushing the fastest procs on paper today & for the market research both of these companies have invested in, incorporating 3D was not a hefty risk but a response to public interest.

I like the G2X alot. Plain Froyo, great specs, good build... but I really wanted a large display & well, I carry a DSLR anyways, & therefore a 3MP drop in lens quality is a fair trade for the 4.3 inch Optimus 3D.
[LG Optimus 3D] zedklind:
I mean don't get me wrong about 3D. I work at a movie theater and a lot of our movies are becoming 3D. It looks great but I'm worried about nausea and battery loss. I was upset as well to see that the qualcomm processor was only an a8. Was looking for to the rumored pyramid for a 4.3inch screen. I've had a vibrant for a month to try it out. Great sized screen. The extra .3 inches does make a huge difference with videos and gaming on the go but since tmobile isn't a part of at&t just yet I'm going to get the g2x. I just found this forum comparing the o3d and evo3d fascinating :)

[LG Optimus 3D] coldchillen:
gsm evo 3d..
[LG Optimus 3D] wouwout:
Where? Both sites don't list the EVO 3D.
[LG Optimus 3D] zedklind:
I'm sorry. When I tried to link the site wouldn't let me. I've been following benchmarks on rumored and leaked phones for about a year now. The rumored htc pyramid has the same exact specs hardware wise minus the jump of ram from 768 to 1024 but there are many. Sources that ram at that high amount doesn't make a noticeable difference in benchmarks. It is true that the pyramid isn't the evo 3d but at this point all we have to compare is pre skinned pre-production devices. I'm on my g1 right now at work so when I get home I will see if I have link priveledges yet. There is proof that a9 is going to be better than a8 on the smartphonebenchmarks.com website as well and since the evo3d has a qualcomm msm 8x60(dual core 1.2ghz a8 chip) and the optimus 3d has an omap4(1ghz a9 chip) its purely logical the omap will rise above in benchmarks. There are slight differences in different phones for example the optimus 2x vs the atrix but not as drastic as the benchmarks compare both the pyramid and the optimus 3d.

[LG Optimus 3D] HDD_x8:
Regarding the camera resolution, in 3D mode you get 2x5MP=10MP of unique pixels.

Sure, few people agree with me, but when you try this you may change your mind.

Similar to playing a PC game with and without AntiAliasing, with AA on it renders twice as many pixels and the image improves a lot, even it is displayed at the same resolution as before.

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Scores-for-the-unreleased-HTC-ShooterEVO-3D-creep-up-on-benchmark-websites-nothing-spectacular_id17505
[LG Optimus 3D] fen_nyc:
Hrm, looks like neither of these phones have 3D HDMI mirroring- not sure about regular 2d content. What a bummer...:mad:
[LG Optimus 3D] Hero Yu:
Htc France just confirmed that an EXACT gsm version of the htc evo 3d will be launched in europe. They even said that the phone will be called evo!!! Haha excellent news. Hmm which phone to buy? I love having choices :)
[LG Optimus 3D] fen_nyc:
Yep, I saw the article too! :D I suppose it all comes to a price difference for you correct- since both phones are essential identically spec'd?
[LG Optimus 3D] Hero Yu:
So far the lg is appealing to me more because of the larger onboard storage. But if I have the money I'll buy both phones!
[LG Optimus 3D] peachpuff:
The lack of internal storage can easily be fixed, the lack of ram can't. If the gsm version worked on att's 3g bands i'd get it, but it seems like it'll only work on euro bands.
[LG Optimus 3D] xHausx:
Almost exact at least, I think there was a discrepancy between how much RAM they both will get. The CDMA version was said to have four while the GSM only one. It makes sense that they would have to make room for the SIM card though.
[LG Optimus 3D] Burko:
Do you have a source for this? I was told that the LG Optimus 3D has the ability to output via HDMI to a 3D screen.
[LG Optimus 3D] fen_nyc:
Yes, output for both phones whether 2D (@ 1080P) & 3D (@ 720P) via HDMI is confirmed- but I thought the term "mirroring" meant that both the phone & the TV would display the content simultaneously. According to an informative preview here, the HTC Rep explains the Evo's screen will be "dark" while running 3D content to a TV. I hope this is not the case for 2D media & games/apps.

Additionally, as the Optimus 3D & the G2X has gotten more exposure than the Evo- I have yet to see any type of "mirroring" for the 3D. The G2X is confirmed having this functionality by press reviews since the release of the 2X overseas.
[LG Optimus 3D] HDD_x8:
Have only seen 3D mirroring on high end workstations (+1000$ gfx cards) since it requires extra syncing hardware to avoid tearing which is a huge issue in 3D.

Just a guess, but this feature will not be available any time soon on any 3D phone.

d

Besides, why would you want to look at a 4 inch and a 50 inch 3D screen at the same time, especially when one is glasses free, while the other needs glasses?
[LG Optimus 3D] HDD_x8:
New shoot-out/showdown between the Evo 3D and Optimus 3D, some new info about the cameras, some incorrect info about the CPU power:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/digitaltren...nds/3dsmartphoneshowdownlgoptimus3dvshtcevo3d
[LG Optimus 3D] fen_nyc:
Well, I'm guessing maybe not everyone in the room wants to watch a 3D vid from your phone? Anyways, from what I have seen on the G2X (not sure about the Optimus 3D) was the type of mirroring where someone is controlling the 2D movie w/ the phone- as in advancing/retreating the frame for example, as both devices are playing simultaneously. This may have been a Youtube video & not a file stored in the phone. I hope LG's & HTC's 3D can end up doing both in the final build. My point is, that it seems quite natural as you are able to run your phone on the TV (via apps & surfing for instance) & omitting 3D mirroring is abit disappointing.
[LG Optimus 3D] fen_nyc:
Good find. While Yahoo isn't known for their tech prowess, at least somebody in the media talked about which phone maker does 3D better. :) Yeah, this is likely due to the maturity of LG's 3D apps; HTC will obviously improve in this dept., but the "viewing angle" comment is a good read. Here is the only info in the article that must be a typo: "Both devices also have a full

1GB of RAM

, but the LG has double the storage of HTC’s device with 8GB."

Only the Evo has 1GB while the Optimus has 512MB of RAM.
[LG Optimus 3D] Burko:
Some more info from LG regarding the EVO 3D comparisons.

Some facts about HTC EVO 3D and LG Optimus 3D

HTC EVO 3D has a HD (960X540) display while the LG Optimus 3D is equipped with a WVGA (480X800) panel.The graphic core is the most important factor for realizing the 3D effect in high resolution. Several tests showed that the LG Optimus boasts a high fps which brings clearer and more vivid graphics. In addition, most applications are not optimized for qHD at this time.

HTC EVO 3D has higher brightness at 550nit in 2D and 230nit in 3D while the LG Optimus 3D’s brightness is 500nit in 2D and 175nit in 3D.Brightness could be easily increased if we sacrificed the low cross-talk rate. However, cross-talk, not brightness, is most commonly associated with comfort when viewing 3D content. For this reason, LG is focused more on achieving a lower cross-talk rate than high brightness.

3D mode is available for both landscape and portrait mode on the HTC EVO 3D while LG Optimus 3D supports 3D mode only in landscape mode. Using portrait mode is inconvenient because of its high cross-talk ratio and rainbow effect.

The HTC EVO 3D has no feature to protect 3D technology from offsets.

The LG Optimus 3D has Real Time Misalignment Correction to protect 3D technology from dropping/ heating/ humidity which can result in offset throughout the device’s lifetime”

HTC EVO 3D’s 2D/3D switch along the side is only for the camera, not the display.Thanks to its 3D hot key, the LG Optimus 3D can easily toggle between 2D to 3D or vice versa for both viewing on the display and recording in camera and video. The LG Optimus 3D’s exclusive software technology can convert 2D images into 3D.

HTC EVO 3D cannot share 3D content with a 3D TV.The LG Optimus 3D is the only 3D smartphone for sharing and viewing of 3D content on a large screen like a 3D TV or monitor through HDMI 1.4 connection. In a demonstration of its recognition of LG Optimus 3D’s superior 3D experience, YouTube is collaborating with LG for exclusive marketing activities on its YouTube 3D channel.
[LG Optimus 3D] Spartoi:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ynmqtopi9g

Around 17:20 the lady says that 3D is output and viewable from the TV if you have a 3D-enabled TV. Sprint also seems to be working on Youtube 3D.
[LG Optimus 3D] fen_nyc:
Burko's info originates from here. I don't know how reliable GSM is, but the data regarding the 2D & 3D brightness count for each phone is very specific.

Additionally, the statement in reference to the quality of 3D on each display can change before retail release. Note that while the Optimus is closer to release, the HTC maybe not come out till August.

&, as Killer Bee mentioned, the Evo can "share" 2D & 3D media via HDMI; true mirroring for now isn't possible or ready yet according to HTC.

is there a way to get into any of the image files from the nandroid backup and retrieve data like game saves/data and stuff?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradley_e_smith:
You could always backup your current ROM, restore the old ROM, install titanium, restore your current ROM and use titanium to get back the old stuff.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianmcquinn:
Do a search for a tool like unyaffs. You can use it to extract the data partition from your nandroid backup. Then you can grab the data from whatever apps you are trying to restore individually and copy the files back to your phone.
