I do see some sort of pattern but we need massive amounts of data. Already 2 users have the same 7 digits. We will have a poll soon, with a list of common 7 digits and the average feed back on that batch.

Minimal screen bleed. Two random reboots on stock ROM. Signal is pretty spotty compaired to previous phones I've had.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tombaker1:
Battery heat issues are easily solved by doing a complete system reset...Not power off or battery pull.

Yes it erases the entire phone
[T-Mobile LG G2x] butterbeam:
104KPMZ

To sum it up... this phone has been great. If people are so unhappy with the phone, why keep returning it and getting the same probs. until the update comes out. Get another phone or get money back. Otherwise wait for update to fix the problems. The "little" problems... atleast that's what I see by everyone I know with one. Haven't seen a thing to cry over.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ~~Tito~~:
Yeah, I am really only focusing on the LCD issues and the HW defects. Random reboots and such can be fixed I believe, I haven't had one reboot.

104KPGS

I bought the phone day one (April 21st I think it was). Battery usually only drops to about 80% with minimal use over ~9 hrs (my townhouse has very thick walls and gets very bad reception so the battery will drain like a mother). Haven't really noticed any screen bleeding, though will have random reboots/shut offs only 2-3 times a week that I notice. Doesn't overheat, but still gets pretty warm if I've been playing a 3d game for an extended period of time
[T-Mobile LG G2x] RANDYRKELLY:
105KPG

Plenty of Screen bleed.

Over heats with mild use,

Battery overheated twice,

heated up charger,

Battery life is ok. only get about 4-6 hours on it.

GPS Fix is very slow.

Data connection issues daily.

Uh, 'cause we like it? And we WANT a good one like yours.

And good luck with that update.......when was that coming again? You did hear that the Euros are now getting theirs in the fall now right? They've been waiting for theirs longer than we have.

104kped

I have had only 2 reboots in three weeks. The device does runs warm to very warm to hot.. Gps is spotty at best. Have had periods where phone calls coming in would not ring but would go to voicemail. I lose signal at least 2-3 times per day. Minimal screen bleed. Had a couple of screen freezes and just yesterday the battery refused to show charging until I rebooted. However nothing that keeps happening on a continual basis. I purchased a Sensation 2 days ago and it is doing most of the same things except it runs even hotter.:(
[T-Mobile LG G2x] RANDYRKELLY:
So u saying the sensation isn't better? R u just using heavily cause its new lol. I'm just asking.happiness to me when I get a new phone. Do u let phone drain completely for a full charge?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Dameon87:
OK guys here is mine.

105KPBF

Very minimal screen bleeding at all. I had a total of 1 or 2 random reboots in the first few days, never again since.

I get amazing battery life personally.

As of my writing this I am at 55%, after 15 hours 45 mins, with medium to heavy use. (2 email accnts syncing hourly, moderate texting, a few calls/tikl, and a lot of browsing via tapatalk)

Date on my box is 05/06/2011

I also do not have apn or data/WiFi problems.

I'd say my phone is pretty close to perfect.

Edit: Using CM7 nightlies
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Cubeology:
My phone has had no problems that did not have a software solution. Ran stock with no problems for a month, except I would have done anything to get rid of car home app that launched anytime it got near a magnet, and I have magnetic latch on my holster.

No problems with GPS, WiFi, Cell, etc

No screen bleed that I can detect

Batteries cannot make it from 7am to 10pm as I would like but the easily make it 10-12 hours.

I went 1 month stock with no reboots or other hardware problems.

Have gone several weeks with CM7 nightlies the same.

When I was changing ROMs every day I had some reboots.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] jlevy73:
My device has been excellent, no screenbleed, no reboots, no overheating issues etc. Only issue I have is BT but only on customs roms, stock works fine.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] JaiaV:
I have had absolutely 0 issues with my G2x, on stock or leaked stock GB, aside from the first couple of days with a few random reboots (which seems normal for most in this thread). If I go in a super dark room with max brightness on and an absolutely black screen there is a very tiny amount of screen bleed in one corner.

Note that it takes a much larger sample size in order to get a real estimate of numbers.

I'm wondering if the S/N is separated in house somehow, because there is some correlation between the last 3 letters that doesn't necessarily match the first 3 numbers (so far every 4th place is always a K).

PBF, PED, PLC, PTM, and PVH are shared between multiple people with all of them having at least 2 different 3rd digits (103,104,105). You would think if it was just a straight number there would be more of a spread of those three letters, but then again that depends on how big of a run LG did for each. It could just be I'm seeing a pattern because there's a really small sample size and it's 0600
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ~~Tito~~:
Yep, I plan later on to make a spread sheet and do exactly what you did after we have 100s of people posting in this thread. Then I will make a poll in a different thread asking if this serial # on the G2x has caused them issues. I will list a commonly seen issue next to the serial. I will have another option showing the same serial, but comment next to it "I haven't had any issues with this serial number."

I will get m 2nd replacement Monday. Lets hope I get a 106XXXX, maybe that will be a new batch that is good.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] allen099:
104KPNY - 4/4/2011

- Moderate LCD bleed at all 4 corners (I've had worse on a different G2x)

- No reboots after 3 days with this device

- Reception is not great, but not entirely poor

- Between 10-12 hours of moderate use

- Wifi signal is pretty strong

- GPS locks quickly, but tends to lose itself periodically, but then snaps back when I aim the phone at the windshield in the car (versus being in my hand near the gear shift)

- No extensive overheating, though it's hit 102.7F degrees several times during 5+ minutes of continuous use
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ~~Tito~~:
I just realized that there was a date of manufacture . . . .After seeing dates. . .

The date of Manufacture for my original G2x - 105KPNY - 5/14/2011

I don't know where to find the date for the replacement as it has no date on the sticker under the battery.

Edit: I noticed that the numbers that follow the first 7 digits are the last long string of numbers on the phone's IMEI. So the first 7 digits most likely can define the batch of the phone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] freakboy13:
I wasn't going to post but I just experienced my first freeze up. :(

I have minimal screen bleed, phone does get hot on occasion. Battery life stock sucks and is unacceptable battery life with juice defender and other tweaks is not bad at least 8 he's of full use. GPS sux.

104KPPB 4/6/11

I have light bleed on mine. The top left corner on mine makes the black on my status bar in that corner look washed out compared to the rest of the bar. The other corners I dont't really notice.

The GPS locks on faster when Im outside. If Im inside and it locks on it isnt accurate. Puts me a few blocks from where I actually am. Also jumps around a bit too.

Also it shut off when charging overnight.

Does get a little warm sometimes with use. The battery levels are also off. I was using it and it was at 65% and I decided to reboot. Came back on at 25%.

Im going to exchange and hopefully I get a better one.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] EmceeGeek:

minimal screen bleed

GPS wont lock

internet laggy (I have 4g)

speaker sound quality is low

just had first screen lock requiring battery pull

had phone since late May had about 5x where phone powered off on it own

and is pissed off because i cant get an exchange due to me being on an employee account i stuck until update comes out

by the way i have good battery life
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Hoggles:
My G2X is a company phone. All you have to do is have them make you authorized to make changes such as warranty replacement etc. Unless your boss and/or HR department are big D-Bag control freaks, they should allow it....mine does.

For instance.... I can exchange my phone for warranty/remorse/****s and giggles, but I can't change the service or plan in anyway.

I should also note that I personally paid for my G2X...the company pays for everything else. Oh and yes.....I really like that deal!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ~~Tito~~:
More data perhaps, this is still a small sample. Once we have at least like 12 pages or so I will post the first results of this survey.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] yetanotheruser:
104KPLC - box date 4/25/2011

Initially daily lockups requiring battery pull. Improved over time, now less than once per week.

Frequent switching between 4g and 2g (and wifi if enabled), often when sitting in one place with no obvious reason for signal to vary. This can chew up battery in 3-4 hours when happening. Worse, perhaps half of calendar events created on phone don't sync to Google, and other flakyness.

Otherwise, when this signal seeking isn't happening, all is good. Battery life as expected, no screen bleed, no overheating, etc.

Sent from my stock G2x
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ~~Tito~~:
Okay replacement just got to me, it is a 105KPYR. Miniscule Screen bleed. More info to come.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Hoggles:
Sounds good, thanks for the response!

BTW.... forgot to list my numbers and such.....

Purchased: 06/03

Manufactured: 05/09

Serial: 105KPBF

Problems: Minimal screen bleed, top left and right.

1 random reboot (I consider that normal for hi tech devices, exceptional imo)

Battery is perfect (12-14 hours fairly heavy use) now that I switched it to WCDMA ONLY. HSPA+ is widespread in and around Portland, OR... so no need to have it look for EDGE.

That's it. Love this beast. Got it for 1080p/720p recording, 8 mp camera and makin phone calls ;) Does all of those with flying colors.

GB will be nice when it hits....but by no means is a deal breaker if it never does. GB won't do anything for me that Froyo doesn't do already :p
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Hoggles:
If you have HSPA+ in your area where you most are....you should definitely switch network mode to WCDMA ONLY. Your battery life will triple instantly. Set it, reboot = 12-14 hours heavy use.

No need for it to keep searching and switching to EDGE. That obviously kills the battery ;)

Nope, I've had other phones with no screen bleed at all. Something is up when they put together the LCD and backlight.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DaveJudd:
104KPNY

Purchased a couple days after release.

Some screen bleed in one corner when showing a black (backlit) screen.

No other issues.

Flashes ROMs and kernels fine.

OCd to 1.5 just fine.

Has never rebooted itself.

Running EaglesBlood 1.04 at low to medium use and Wifi on half of the time I get almost 70 hrs of battery life. Completely stock with medium to heavy use (Plants vs Zombies & web browsing mostly) I get about 17-20 hrs.

I had a 3-4 day period when I could send but not receive texts successfully. It was in quite an experemental stage with flashing ROMs and kernels (though the problem occurred while using the stock Froyo at a point in between), so I feel that it is not related to stock settings. The moment I unrooted i got a boat-load of texts.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] AustinPowersISU:
104KPMZ

At first, my phone had no problems, except a very rare reboot. I felt amazingly lucky because of all the problems I heard about the G2x. I could go 2 full days without charging with light to medium use.

Then, one day, I decided to test the HDMI out. I didn't have a very good connection with my hdmi cable (I think the cheap cable I bought was to blame), so the signal kept dropping in and out. I could feel the cable was loose on the phone side, so I don't think it was the phone's fault.

After a bit, my phone turned itself off. I felt the phone and it was incredibly hot. After removing the back cover and feeling back there, it hurt to touch. Everything was hot, not just the battery.

After this, my phone at most can go 16 hours with extremely light use. I have to use '2g only' to make it last that long. I thought maybe my battery was bad after getting so hot, so I bought a new one and there was no difference. Phone still reboots randomly too, but not very often.

Only reason why I haven't asked for an exchange yet is because the replacement could actually be worse battery wise...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ninja984:
Maybe you should see if you can exchange the battery

[T-Mobile LG G2x] ~~Tito~~:
Yeah but the screen bleed is just as bad as my first G2x! Haha, I went in a big circle. . I don't want to risk it again though.

What I did hear, is that the G2x will have screen bleed no matter what, and even if you send it for replacement to LG themselves, there will be screen bleed. I found this out after an LG rep talked to a supervisor with the question of how to determine proof of purchase. So it wasn't asked, it was told.

Those of you with no visible screen bleed, I envy you. Mine has visible screen bleed but its small.

104KPJP - No issues or screen bleed or hardware issues brought 05/19/2011. I did have audio studder with stock rom using mspot. However switching to custom rom fixed all issues so I am thinking it was a software problem and not hardware.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] v8dreaming:
I've had mine since launch.

I have GPS issues- it doesn't work at all. I have to use network location.

Wifi issues- With sleep policy set to never, it disconnects and tries to connect wifi and 4g at the same time or some crap. I have to jump through hoops to get it working again.

Bad reception issues- Will go from 3-4 bars of 4g to 3 bars on edge or less without moving the phone.

LCD backlight bleed- Mine is pretty bad compared to others I have seen pictures of.

Phone will turn itself on- I charge my phone when it's off. Sometimes when I plug in the charger, the phone will turn back on. By on, I mean all the way back to my home screen.

104KPHG

After reading about everybody swapping theirs out 3-4 times, I decided to hold on to mine. I thought that they would have the software stuff fixed pretty quick. I've learned that this not the case. Today, the person running the T-Mobile facebook said there was no timetable for putting out any fixes for the phone.

http://www.facebook.com/TMobile/posts/10150219598913895?notif_t=feed_comment

So, I'm about to go on a phone swapping spree.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] fallen368:
104KPKN, date: 4/27/11.

Rooted since day one, switch between stock rom and eb1.05. No kernel change. I get about 10 hours of use- some games, lots of web browsing, a couple hours of pandora, etc. GPS was great at first, then flashed gb leak and it was crap even when back to stock. Used hidden menu gpx fix I read about in dev thread, now my gps is very quick to lock again on stock, even after a day between locks. Very accurate too. No reboots, battery got hot during charging and heavy use, but that went away. Roughly around flashing the cwm in place of stock recovery and flashing gb leak. Great data and reception, even in the walk-in freezer at work. minimal screen bleed, just at the four corners, have to be in a dark room, max brightness, and looking for it. Overall, I think I lucked out. Only issue I've really had is the keyboard lag on stock gb. Hope this helps. Btw- I think in my case, I could fix the screen bleed. Being on the corners, I bet that the plastic housing for the lcd is crap and is letting light in- if the plastic housing isn't snug, then the light will shine around the edges in parts, instead of being limited to shining through the lcd. Just a thought, hope it makes sense. Example- I had a laptop with spots in between the lcd and backlight sheet. I opened it and cleaned it, not being as gentle as I should have been. The housing that held it all together was thin sheet metal and also plastic. I bent the metal, and cracked the plastic in places when I separated it all. The result- a screen with no more spots, but with light bleeding where there was none before........bleeding was light, and was where the housing was bent and not fitting snugly. Again, just a theory. Dont really feel like taking my screen out of my g2x to test it, lmao.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] itslinx:
I guess i'll participate in this. I've had my G2X for about a week and a half. I have no screen bleed. My battery has been excellent. The phone restarted a few times the first 1-2 days I had it, but hasn't since then. I have not rooted at all btw. The only real problem i've had is my GPS working kinda screwy at times.
