So if you go to T-Mobile's site and search for the G2x the only products that come up are the home dock and the car dock.

Any ideas as to why this could be?

Edit: was told the phone was on backorder via chat with rep. Sounds fishy. Even if the phone were on backorder they would still sell the phone and advise the purchaser that it was on backorder.

Wow

Wow, either they are admitting there are problems and removing it from sale for now or just an error. Gotta swing by a store and see if they still have it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] unique77:
I notice they advertise it on their main page, but if you go to shop all phones its not there.... very weird. Hopefully they're not ditching out on the phone
[T-Mobile LG G2x] scmurphy13:
Interesting.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] darbear5610:
Oh no

I can't click the "Add to Cart" button. It's grayed out, can anyone confirm this?

Also, this http://www.tmonews.com/2011/05/has-the-g2x-been-pulled-from-store-shelves-due-to-quality-issues/

I hope it's just an inventory thing. I don't wanna find out there's something wrong with this phone, the fact being the G2x I just bought from Amazon is on it's way now.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] aray213:
tmonews has an article about this now

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Beggars1923:
If it is a QC issue I wonder what T-Mobile will do about it. Complete refunds or exchanges of similar devices - i.e., Sensation.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mikea3000:
I doubt they would drop the product all together or that they will issue refunds or excahnges. My theory is that they might stop sales until a update is released.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] graffixnyc:
If they did pull it for QC issues I really hope they do either give me a refund or exchange it for a comparable device (sensation I'm guessing)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] boredpcguy:
Just remember the G1... they pulled it out of the lineup to catch up. Same thing went for the HD2, and a few others. You'll notice the magenta sidekick is in the same boat for upgrades. It's not quality, it's "we way oversold." I confirmed this with a friend that works in a call center.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wondercoolguy:
Omitted !!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wondercoolguy:
WoW I'm glad I returned mine, not saying that they wouldn't have taken it back any ways but this is a huge blow. If I were g2x owner I'd take it back today!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] unique77:
I agree with bored PC. Too much sold means no stock to support the user.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Suprah:
Why and what phone would we get to replace the g2x when sensation haven't came out yet
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mobilehavoc:
Why do people care so much whether your current phone is on the website or not? I understand people interested in buying it but why do you care if you already have a G2X? You have a T-Mobile and Manufacturer warranty and if you are worried, return the phone.

My phone is far from perfect but yet the G2X is still the best phone I've ever owned. I couldn't care less if they stopped selling it. Might actually be cool to have a limited edition phone :D
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Suprah:
Ur obviously not getting the point here. If they pulled the device for Qc issues and they push out new versions or fixed devices then ppl who already have the phone that has issues want to know if they can get a replacements. You have the device and it mysteriously disappears from tmo site, wouldn't I concerned that ur device is faulty
[T-Mobile LG G2x] graffixnyc:
just spoke to TMO, they said they have no information about it but I spoke to an account specialist in customer loyalty and asked if it does turn out to be true would they offer refunds or replace the phone, they said yes they would if it ends up to be true. They would either repair it, replace it(Guess when they fix the issues) or give a like device
[T-Mobile LG G2x] wondercoolguy:
I have an N1 so when I took back my G2x went back to it. I am patient and await the out of come of this craziness to determine wheter I'm going to just wait for the Hercules to come out. I refuse to get another HTC device until they fix their battery consumption issues.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DebauchedSloth:
I got stuck on a trip - my G2X battery started getting EXTREMELY hot and eventually would not charge past 20% - and had to go get another phone. No choice, had to have a phone.

TMobile was "kind" enough to replace my battery, despite the fact that the G2x constantly reboots, and has screen bleed.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gypsy214:
i still see the device on tmobile.com do you guys know how to look for it? hahaha
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Suprah:
Sounds like music to my ears
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Suprah:
It shows on main page but it's indeed revoked for the time being. You can't order it online or buy one at tmo store. Do more exploring before poking fun
[T-Mobile LG G2x] VisedMonk:
Earlier the g2x was still on the T-Mo website but the site said "Out of Stock" and you couldn't "Add to cart" - the button was grayed out.

When I checked at 2:42 p.m. Eastern the g2x was not on the T-Mo website at all.

**EDIT**

BURN!!!!!!!!!!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] vmartinez39:
Mine reboots. Actually my G2x gets supper laggy. Tried killing services, and it rebooted in the middle of web browsing.

I stopped using the G2X only because the dam slacker radio stream will not work, even on WiFi.

I'm upset because I paid full price for this device. I hope there is an update. Buyer's remorse is kicking in.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] androidaddict23:
T-mobile rumor.supposedly the G2x is being pulled because of issues with the phone.nice try L.g.. http://androidspin.com/2011/05/25/t-mobile-g2x-being-pulled-from-shelves/
[T-Mobile LG G2x] aczarney:
As a tmobile rep, I know this happens all the time. No I can't tell you a reason, but various phones--even phone firsts--are pulled for various reasons. They usually show back up sooner or later. I know Ive seen the g1 come and go a couple times since its been out.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
This phone if perfect for me.

I guarantee they aren't pulling this phone... Mine rocks...no issues...

Y'all crazy there out of stock.....lmaooook
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PanzerGeist:
My coworker (and fellow G2x owner) just contacted two different T-Mo rep (one live chat, one phone) and both indicated that this was entirely an issue with available stock and NOT due to an QC issues.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] smashpunks:
Exactly rumors are funny..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jeffreynew23:
G2x

Why do people on this forum get so upset when people voice their frustrations with devices that are flawed. I had constant reboots on my phone until i flashed a custom ROM. This is obviously a large enough issue for LG and T-Mobile to reevaluate what happened with their launch of the G2x.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nate420:
I was on the phone to get another replacement vibrant for my brothers phone... and its out of stock.. claims android troubleshooting agent and customer loyalty.... but why are they pulled from all the local stores and 3rd party vendors?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Lootes:
I am going to guess that they have run out of stock given how many people have returned the device multiple times. I barely notice my backlight bleed and even with gingerbread you don't see it unless the screen is absolutely black. As for the other issues, aside from GPS I have been fortunate, I will wait for the software updates to come out.

As for replacing the G2x for the Sensation, if you are thinking about that, you must not want to run a custom ROM on it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nate420:
A android specialist is calling me tomorrow with a update about bleeding... so it is a issue (LG is. Supposedly making a confirmed comment tomorrow)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Lootes:
I understand the screen bleed is an issue, and some screens are worse than others, I can live with mine. The Sensation does have an encrypted signed bootloader, not going to see a root method for a while.

Looking forward to their comments/press release/what have you, will be nice to see someone from LG or T-Mobile finally address some of the issues head on.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Rem3Dy:
Talk about misinformed. The sensation has an encrypted bootloader. The only way you will ever have custom roms/kernels is if we get lucky and the encryption keys get released like the thunderbolt.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nate420:
Sorry just researched... I only kept up with the sensation for a awhile last month and it seemed to say signed.... ill edit post.... wow that does suck but Droid x us encrypted and they got around it in about a month so it shouldn't be to bad
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GideonX:
Droid X still isn't considered entirely "open".
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nate420:
No its not but they do have a way around it...

As proven weith the Droid x and other encrypted droids/phones.. if enough people get to cracking OR getting around it you will see custom roms. But I think the only way to get a custom kernel is completely busted open bootloader or visvirsa can't remember off hand
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tackleberry:
i just got home about an hour ago, and picked up a G2x as i got tmo to allow me to get it. last night they said it wasnt in stock to order so they told me to go to store to get it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GideonX:
I had a DX, some decent roms came out (Apex, etc.). However, with that bootloader, kernel dev simply didn't exist. It got pretty darn boring.

Some good folks were cracking hard on it to bust it open, but you can probably tell by now it's likely not going to happen.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mightykc:
This is wierd because I actually called TMO this morning and told thenm of the backlight bleeding issues I had and they shipped me out a replacement. I actually just got a text message saying the replacement has been shipped. So it appears they aren't out of stock. I'm curious if the replacement has the problem fixed or not.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Rem3Dy:
So if it is going to be so easy...... why has nobody figured how to do it with the incredible s? Its only been done on Motorola phones. When someone finds a way on an htc phone then come talk.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dkb218:
Do you really think T-Mobile is gonna tell the customer that the phone they just spent $400+ for is a POS? No. It is a QC issue. I've own both the G1 and HD2 and while those were both removed from stock for a while, neither had the the problems the G2X has. I've never had a device factory reset itself, shut down durning phone calls, refuse to wake from sleep, etc...

I really like this phonel. I want it to work. I'm glad T-Mobile removed it from stock. Now they can fix the problems.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Profondo_Rosso:
If you haven't already, I'd suggest going into a tmobile store and complain in person so you get it on record. I'd assume if they do send out replacements, they're not going to give them to whoever asks for one.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] trill12:
Quality control problem, point blank. So TMO is telling us they just ran out of stock out of nowhere? No warning of shortage? If anyone would know about a shortage beforehand, it would be the reps.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dkb218:
Wait for it... Wait for it...:D

Text Message from T-Mobile:

Your Device is on Backorder

Once they are in stock, you will be contacted with a delivery date.:mad:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mikea3000:
I ordered a warranty replacement last night and got a text this morning that it was shipped with a tracking number. How is that a low stock issue or backorder?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] dkb218:
Well, it seems that just decided to pull it this morning. You made it under the wire. Its not a backorder unless you got the last one. I don't think you'll get it. Seems Shipping and Ordering are on two different servers that don't talkie to each other.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] trill12:
That doesnt make sense. Its not like the stores themselves are completely sold out or anything. Im sure I could walk into the back of a TMO store and theyd have many handsets.

Theyre being told not to sell them. For a certain reason,
[T-Mobile LG G2x] EtherealRemnant:
The only issue I have my G2x is the lack of screen sensitivity - other than that, my backlight bleed resolved itself, the only reboots I ever get are occasionally when browsing using the Trinity kernel on Bionix (and usually instead of rebooting it just freezes but its never done it on stock kernel or faux123's kernel), I've never had a random factory reset and my battery life is phenomenal for how much I use my phone.

Ironically I had all of the above issues with my MT4G which I returned to get this phone.

I don't really think they pulled it for QC reasons but who knows - they've been getting a lot of returns because of backlight bleed - they should institute the same policy Sprint has. Backlight bleed is considered cosmetic and doesn't affect the functionality. If you get backlight bleed, you return the phone and get a different model. Now they've probably got hundreds of refurbs because of people returning otherwise perfectly fine devices.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] VisedMonk:
Why else would they have pulled it? If it's a bad batch of batteries, they would just swap them out before shipping them.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Sistum Id:
I bought two G2x last Saturday. One for me and one for my girlfriend. She hasn't had one issue with reboots or anything so she says. First 30 minutes I had mine I had reboot and after a phone call, it locked up. It takes a few minutes to get a cell signal after start up. Sometimes during outgoing calls it will just idle at calling and never connect.

I have the 14 days buyers remorse, so if I don't hear of any solution by next Friday, both mine and my girlfriends phone will be going back regardless if hers is fine.

If they fix it afterwards, I'll probably go and get a new one.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bhagiratha:
That's why I have listed it on ebay and it will be replaced tomorrow by the Samsung Galaxy S2.

Any buyers?

[T-Mobile LG G2x] EtherealRemnant:
I take it you don't have T-Mobile 3G and 4G in your area? Last I heard, the Galaxy S2 didn't support T-Mo's bands and there have been no announcements regarding T-Mo carrying this phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nate420:
The sgs2 is only on att ...

T-Mobile is not getting it.. I think the hurcules is their version of it

Sprint might get a sgs2 too or a similar version
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jjohnson085:
For whatever it's worth, our corporate rep said it's been pulled from inventory for quality issues and won't be available until 2.3 update is ready, 3 to 4 weeks, release date not final yet.

So my order from yesterday may not ship until the update is on the device.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] EtherealRemnant:
Yes I am well aware that Sprint, Verizon, and at&t are all getting variants of the SGS2 and T-Mobile already having the SGS4g probably won't be getting this phone and rather the Hercules - I was just pointing out to the other poster selling his and getting a Galaxy S2 that it doesn't have Band IV (UMTS 1700/2100) which T-Mo uses for 3G and 4G.

Gosh its is still on the website

http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/Phones/cell-phone-detail.aspx?cell-phone=T-Mobile-G2x-with-Google

The horror.

I wonder if it has anything to do with Costco selling these things at 79 dollars for new activations, including a case, a travel charger, and a decent bluetooth headset. HMMMMMM Or Radio Shack doing nearly the same.

HMMMMM.

Could it actually be that these things are selling.....hmmmmm

Google ad takes you here (just search in google G2x....duh) http://g2.t-mobile.com/g2x?cm_mmc_o=Vzbp+mwzygt*VAygtzlw*VyBpAgf+mA55Byf*VyBpAgf+mA55Byf

It says "temporaryly out of stock" GOSH what could that mean, maybe that the phone's battery blows up if using the GPS in wifi mode.....could be....just could be....inquiring minds want to know.

HOLD THE PHONE Amazon did not get the memo from Tmonews

http://wireless.amazon.com/dp/B004WF5Y1O/ The continue to sell the phone that has a massive nuclear radiation leak in the LCD

Clearly the memo was not delivered http://www.cellhub.com/Details.aspx?at=new&pl=0&ci=362&cid=trimobile

The light bleeding issue is the biggest joke out there, has anyone even seen a picture of it being a problem in an application or even a video....how about a freeze and picture. Nope all just the Draw black screen.

I believe these self professed princesses are all claiming the can feel a pea underneath their bed mattress too.

OMG OMG Radio Shack still selling them too at 99 bucks

[T-Mobile LG G2x] johnnyp500:
Everyone relax. They ran out of stock. The only people with problems are on these forums. I have about 5 friends that bought this phone last week all problem free (including mine). Reviews on the phone are great (CNET editors choice, PC MAG) so everyone is buying it.

btw just a reminder when the iphone 4 came out with all its shut downs from the newly designed antennas if anyone read the forums at the time it was much worst than the forums here and still the iphone 4 ran out of stock even after the incident.

Point is its not a QC issue its on backorder, this phone is a very popular phone, and with the $79 unlimited its a winner, everyones jumpin on it noone knows what sensation and SG2 means except for the 50 people on here, or maybe 100, or maybe 200.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] BarryH_GEG:
Here are Elizabeth Kubler Ross's five stages of grief:

1. Denial — "I feel fine."; "This can't be happening, not to me."

Denial is usually only a temporary defense for the individual. This feeling is generally replaced with heightened awareness of possessions and individuals that will be left behind after death.

2. Anger — "Why me? It's not fair!"; "How can this happen to me?"; '"Who is to blame?"

Once in the second stage, the individual recognizes that denial cannot continue. Because of anger, the person is very difficult to care for due to misplaced feelings of rage and envy.

3. Bargaining — "Just let me live to see my children graduate."; "I'll do anything for a few more years."; "I will give my life savings if..."

The third stage involves the hope that the individual can somehow postpone or delay death. Usually, the negotiation for an extended life is made with a higher power in exchange for a reformed lifestyle. Psychologically, the individual is saying, "I understand I will die, but if I could just have more time..."

4. Depression — "I'm so sad, why bother with anything?"; "I'm going to die... What's the point?"; "I miss my loved one, why go on?"

During the fourth stage, the dying person begins to understand the certainty of death. Because of this, the individual may become silent, refuse visitors and spend much of the time crying and grieving. This process allows the dying person to disconnect from things of love and affection. It is not recommended to attempt to cheer up an individual who is in this stage. It is an important time for grieving that must be processed.

5. Acceptance — "It's going to be okay."; "I can't fight it, I may as well prepare for it." In this last stage, the individual begins to come to terms with her/his mortality or that of a loved one.​

You have four more to go...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] yglup:
I just got my third one today, and guess what? Its worse than the first two, I will be returning it regardless of whatever anybody on here think. The phone is not functional in this form. For all the naysayers, let me sell you a car with a bunch of cracks in the drivers side windsheield or a new car that has power windows that don't work or work here and there! Would you idiots not return it? If your device is working 100% or you just don't care about it and like giving your hard earned cash, then be my guest. And why the hell are you hanging out in this thread? Sounds like you have no life and nothing else to do, that's fine, but don't cut down these people because they want they don't just bow and accept defective devices. And another thing, I heard references through this thread about people here being soft and women, I guarantee you, I'm 150% built from a different cloth than 85% of you losers and trust me that whole 85% I just referred to would cream in their pants if approached them. I'm not a bully and am not A gangster but I have survived amongst the most vile scum in a place I know you've never been and would expect you to have been dead by suicide if put there, I leave that to those idiots. However don't be a clown! I'm sending it back and I will be getting another!
