It's, I think, the later responses that pretty much assume everybody will have these problems and/or are ignoring them altogether that are getting to some posters.

I got a G2X day it came out and I love it. No issues. I had a Vibrant and I would never buy a Samsung product again. For everyone waiting for the next Samsung phone just make sure you love whatever OS it comes with because no matter what Google releases after you will never get it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] theebest:
Dude i know your were your coming from but you have to relize that just because YOUR G2X was a complete dud doesnt mean all G2X are like that.and dont say im just defending the G2X because i DON'T have it, its just the way it is they're are always going to be bad apples in the bunch especially during the first batch... dont believe me go to other phones sections.. but yeah man that does suck hope you get your money back or atleast a replacement...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
You got a bad one just like I had 3 of them until I found a good one. There is problems with this phone just like every other one. I had to exchange my Vibrant 4 times just to get a working GPS and had to exchange my N1 3 times for various reasons. I wouldn't say I'm rich but I have enough money to buy any phone I want and I chose to buy this one for the time being. I chose it for a couple of reasons. The DEV support its going to receive and its the quickest phone on the market. I have no doubt in my mind that I am going to buy the SGII if it gets to Tmobile but I can tell you right now, once I get rid of this phone, I wont make a thread crying about it. I am no fanboy for any device and I am not loyal to any particular manufacturer so I could give a **** less what you say about the G2X just as long as you use English the next time you start ranting.

By the way, my G2X has no problems but my first 3 did. This is the best Android device I have ever used.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] XSavage:
mine had screen bleed so tmobile gave me a new one , this new one has less screen bleed , this new one had the same problem that youre describing , just turn off the phone by removing the battery , put it in again , hold down the vol down button then hold down the power button at the same time , it should enter factory reset mode , there it should boot again normally , been working fine so far.

its a buggy phone, but its the software fault not the hardware, gingerbread should fix the problem , i would like it to have honeycomb instead of gingerbread though.

I'm on my second G2X but since rooting and freezing the T-mobile junk this is by far the best phone I've ever had. Before this I was a hardcore Nokia user.

From what I've read the first batch of phones was bad but it would seen that these are getting fixed. Case in point is the screen bleed, my first phone was awful but this one has none and I know of 3 others who have no bleed either.

Tell him iPhones are for soccer moms that aren't tech savy. There just a dumbed down smart phone so stupid people can real sophisticated. Also ask him how much he likes being tethered to iTunes. And make sure he knows you can tether your data right out of the box. Then after u get dome telling him all that, show him how much faster your G2x loads webpages but make sure you have flash off or set to on demand.

Google(googol actually) is 10^100 which is greater than the number of protons in the universe and is therefore greater than the universe and everythin in it. Especially apples.

Penguins are a higher form of life than apples.

Apples logo is a fruit and at one point contained rainbow colors. Can it get anymore gay than that?

If you had a pet penguin youd get laid. A pet apple... Not so much.

Apple sues people that are better than them. Google doesnt have to worry about that

Frozen yogart and gingerbread are sweeter than apples.

Your antenna works if you "hold it wrong"

You dont have glass that breaks on both sides because the mandatory case to prevent "deathgrip" trapped dirt and scrached the edge causing stress risers

Your screen is bigger

Your speakers are likely louder

Your oem will not refuse warenty repairs because you smoke(apple considers deposits from cigarettes a biohazard)

more ram>less

Expandable storage

Replaceable batteries

Our phones are better all around except for the screen. That's all the iphone has to brag about. But then again, what do you expect when you pack all the pixels into a smaller screen size...hence, retina display....

Anyhow, once the Samsung Galaxy S II comes out, it'll be all over. That's what most of us are all waiting for...the LG G2X will still be right up there amongst the best of the best though...

In the meantime, I'm loving the G2X....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jdkackley:
T-Mobile doesn't spend as much in marketing, so on average you don't have to spend more to get less. I mean have you tried to call at&t's customer service?

Seriously just load Google navigation. That right there adds hundreds of dollars in value to your phone as its now a full navigation system.

4G! 4G! 4G!

None of this matters though... Apple is a cult. There is nothing you can say that will get him to change his mind. Apple users will always find some way of justifying paying 5 times more to get 10 times less.

You can't get any better than running Android on a G2x on T-Mobile. We have the software, the hardware, and the customer service.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] mysterioustko:
Simple way to win that argument: Tell him give an elderly person an iphone and a young person an iphone and after they both get them set up, both of their phones will LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME. Conversely, give those same two people a g2x or pretty much any android phone and the phones will look totally different because they will be set up in a way to cater to that particular individual (something you cannot do on iphone unless you hack it and even then it's quite limited).

I want to upgrade the firmware but i really dont now or can find any info on the archos site. Is my 70b a Gen8 ? i like to hack the device so i have more options.

Can someone help me a bit or link some info i need to know?

I have right now this firmware:

Modelnr: A7EB (in the software) on the back of the device: modelnr:7702

(what modelnr do i use?)

v0.18eclaire

Firmware 1.0.1

Is there any firmware thats better right now?

The most frustreting is that i dont get the part what kind of archos i have.

If you look on the archos site i dont find any 70b device.

Like to have some help and tips pls :)

Greetings,

[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] DeathKoil:
I downloaded Wave Launcher and I'm attempting to make use of it. My current setup is ADW.Launcher EX, Folder Organizer, and Beautiful widgets. I really liked this setup, but I'm looking for a new look for my phone. Having five Folder Organizer widgets on the desktop is pretty sweet. I can get to the 20ish programs I use all on one home screen via the folder organize widgets.

I was hoping to use Wave Launcher to re-do my setup so make the home screen more "empty" and clean.

The app is very easy to setup, but its use seems a bit limited. I was hoping to be able to have multiple Wave Launchers so that if I swiped from the left side of the screen it would like X apps, if I swiped from the right side of the screen it would display a different set of Y apps, and if I swiped from the bottom it would bring up a different set of Z apps. Unfortunitally, the app only allows for one swipe location and one set of apps to launch.

I am going to keep it installed, and I am going to try to make it work for me. I can free up some screen real estate via Wave Launcher, though I'm not sure what to launch with it. Should I put in my most used apps? It does make them a bit harder to launch versus having links on the screen or a Folder Organizer widget on the scren. So should I put some apps I don't use often into the wave launcher so that they don't use screen real estate as either links or a folder organizer widget.

Long story short... this launcher seems to be a great idea. A swipe motion brings up a "waved bar" with links on it. However, those links are harder to "choose" since you have to slide your thumb / finger into the right place, so folders might work better. However folders take up screen real estate. So... its a good idea, and it might work out for me. I wish that there were more options like the ones lacking that I listed above.

We'll see what I come up with over the next few days.

Wave Launcher

You can customize the size and location of Wave Launcher's gesture-area, try "Bottom Left - 20%" in the "Gesture-area presets" setting.

Upcoming version of Wave Launcher will allow 3rd party apps to disable / enable Wave Launcher. (Currently supported by the upcoming version of WidgetLocker) It will also include a quick disable/enable option via the notification bar.
[Atrix 4G Themes and Apps] LiorG:
You can also use it for:

direct-dial contacts.

Any Android shortcut, not just apps.

Show its built-in app-drawer (by swiping or by long-pressing the gesture-area

Just installed BAMF 1.6 and 1.6.2 this morning. So far, great, but there are a couple of visual elements I notice that are missing from my phone that were in the app screenshots. Namely the status bar icons for bluetooth/wifi/etc in the 2nd panel, and the non-standard power options in the 3rd panel.

On my phone that status bar area is completely blank and the power options are still the standard Power Off / Airplane / Restart

How should I go about fixing this? Thanks ahead of time!

rafdroid is based on the desire hd, that home screen doesnt rotate.

if you want home screen rotation you need a desire z based build, or one of the newer sense builds with this feature enabled

Or use a launcher app such as go launcher, adw or launcher pro
