I have had a cliq, hd2, and vibrant. Before that an iPhone 3g. Loved the HD2 and the Vibrant was ok. Cliq was too slow and iPhone, well it was apple...

Overall my favorite by far is the G2x. Amazing phone, despite some of its quirks. Screen bleed on my unit is minimal and haven't had lockups/reboots really. Battery life is great on my current build. Read in forums about helping GPS lock and seems to have helped it. Once gingerbread gets official, this phone will be even more amazing :D

HD2

Came from HD2, happy user. Most hackable phone right thurr. I like my g2x too tho.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] overground:
G1>N1>G2X

Love my G2X and still love my N1 (GF has it now).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ChrisHeel:
I came from Sprint HTC Hero. I both love and hate my G2X - mostly hate (terrible reception/wifi and data issues). If I had to do it over again, I would have stayed with Sprint and never switched to T-Mo and gotten the G2X.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] antoniouslj:
Do you think it's mostly a knock on T-Mobile vs. Sprint, rather than G2X vs Hero?

If you're having WiFi connectivity issues, you may have gotten a lemon. Did you attempt to exchange the device?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bighulk666:
Came from MT4G, and very happy. After playing with the G2X for a day or so after I bought it, I then went to mess around on the MT4G and it was just so slow. The MT4G was OC to 1.4-1.5ghz.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ChrisHeel:
Fair question. I'm certainly not impressed with T-Mobile's network, but I do know someone with a GS4G and it gets reception in my building at work. Mine gets nothing, and wifi-calling is useless - I can answer calls, but callers cannot hear me. So for 8 hours/day, if I need to make a call on my phone, I have to go outside to do it. I switched to T-Mobile because I really can't stand Sprint's customer service, and T-Mo's has been excellent thus far. I'm just going to switch to the Sensation, and if that doesn't work, switch to GS4G. It's just too bad because I really love everything else about the G2X. My battery life is great, and the screen bleed is minimal.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] briandresstoyota:
I am coming from an old school G1 and.....gasp....Iphone 3G. Never really loved the Iphone like i loved my G1. The G2x is gorgeous. Love it. Most amazing phone I have ever had. Just to give you guys some perspective here. Not all the android owners are super tech savvy and vocalizing their opinions on this forum. I for one now own a phone that is more powerful than my home computer. Funny to think that right? Think of how many average users must be blown away by this beautiful device. No light bleeding for me, no APN issues, custom roms always load wonderfully. Never a problem with anything so far except a few freezes here and there on early custom roms. Now im running CM7 build 49 with Faux's kernel and smooth sailin. So happy to be back in the comfortable world of Android.

Edit: On a sidenote guys. I have noticed drastic improvements of battery life with the newer CM7 roms. Im at work all day, on wifi streaming music from time to time throughout the day when I'm away from my desk. Probably 2 solid hours of streaming. Texting all day and checkin social app statuses. Checking the web ESPN. Its now been 7 hours since i took it off the charger this morning and My batt stats are still 87 percent. Oh i play a lot of angry birds too. Sooooooo maybe i got lucky?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] KRAZYADROIDMASTER:
I went from a HTC DASH to a G1 to GX2. The DASH was a cool little phone, the only thing I wish it had touch screen. I like ANDROID better than WINDOWS MOBIL. I miss the battery performance of G1 it would last all day. After rooting and using different roms on the G1 I got use to all the extra setting that the roms provided. My favorite was this night vision setting, it would turn phones screen red. It was good to use at night.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] C0dy:
CM7 has it, it's a widget called RenderFX.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sarni84:
yup! go to settings, then cyanogenmod settings and just look around in there its there tho lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrharvey:
I had an iphone 2g, G1, Mytouch 3g, GSM HTC Hero, Nexus One, Samsung Vibrant and now the G2X. I am ALMOST completely happy with my G2X. It has everything that I could have ever wanted and I dont think it has any issues that other new release phones didnt have except for the screen bleeding. Thats the ONLY thing that even remotely bothers me and I think its because I came from a Vibrant that just had the most rediculously awesome screen ever. All my other phones had bugs too with iphone 2g coming up on top as being the most absurd device I have used haha. I hated that thing. G1 had a TON of bugs and features missing but they got ironed out as the phone aged. Honestly I have tried almost every android phone out there and the G2X is by far the best and most satisfying, especially running CM7 :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mahgninnuc93:
Converted iPhone fanboy

Howdy folks, I am coming to the family from the Apple Iron fist of death.

I recently got the G2x. A dude traded me straight up for my iPhone4 for an unopened G2X and he threw in 150.00 cash. Great deal for me.

So far I absolutely love this with the exception of the battery life. I have rooted it and now need to figure out how to put rom's on etc.

Only one of two issues with rebooting itself. As soon as the battery issue gets fixed I will be good to go and not planning on going back to Apple.

Came from the n900 loved that phone it was an absolute beast. I love my g2x with cm7 and fauxs kernel it amazes me every day glad I bought it no regrets!!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] JaiaV:
I love my G2x. I have no major issues with it.

Came from T-Mobile G1, some prepaid phones, iPhone 4 (meh).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] 911sc4me:
Well lets see ........ smart phone wise - started with the iphone 2g and 3g (both on T-mobile) then moved on to the MT3G and Nexus One and now the G2x.

Honestly, I love this phone. It has it's problems, but I see a lot of development in it's future. Once the little kinks are worked out - it'll be a major player!

I still have and love my N1 and will probably never part with it, but the G2x was a real upgrade. No major problems so far. A little light bleed in the top corners, but it is an LCD after all.

....... now I just need to get this thing rooted and start having some real fun!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Razorblood:
I have a Mytouch 3G 1.2 and after comparing side to side the sensation and the g2x I decided to get the g2x and can't wait :)

Its pretty pricy at 250 when Amazon has it for 120. I will probably use Amazon.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] iunlock:
Samsung Galaxy S 4G, loved it.

G2X, still have it, but selling it.

HTC Sensation, currently have and love it.

Ultimate phone I'm waiting for...hope for it to come to TM...

SAMSUNG GALAXY S II!!!

The king and throne holder of smart phones hands down...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Danishswag:
Came from a mytouch 3g, which was alright for its time, but it had plenty of issues. I have to give credit to HTC for replacing the one I bricked, although that was probably more ignorance than anything else.

My first G2X was alright, and may have seemed even a little faster than the one I have now, but the screen bleed was pretty bad and it couldn't hold a signal. The signal seemed to reset or something every 5 mins. So i returned it.

New G2X is actually amazing. There is a barely noticeable amount of screen bleed which really doesn't bother me much. Running bionix RC1 it's treating me well. I even managed to fix the GPS.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] pinhead:
My last device before the G2x was the G2 and I am/was NOT happy with LG's little mistake.

See, the G2x is a really great smartphone. It looks fantastic, has very good hardware it seems, the phone is blazingly fast, and it is a good PHONE as well. I just cannot have a smartphone that I cannot rely on. I need to know that it will ring and that it will be on when certain emails are coming. I need to know that the battery will last more than half of a workday. I need my outgoing calls to successfully dial and then ring on the other end. I am tired of random resets and sudden unexplained battery drain when the only connection is to Google and my Exchange server.

I kept holding out hope that an update would help. I could not wait any longer. I moved back to an HTC device. I'd love to still have the G2x. I really liked it when it worked. But it often doesn't work. That is not acceptable for a top end smartphone.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Cubeology:
I came from probably the worst android phone imaginable and I think it is criminal that they are still selling it without a disclaimer. It was the Motorola Cliq XT and they stopped updating it at Android 1.5.

I am thoroughly happy with my G2X and have none of the problems that others complain about so loudly in this forum.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tmwfla:
I went to the G2x from the Vibrant, and back to the Vibrant. I didn't have any major reboot issues, or massive screen bleed (a little, but nothing I couldn't live with, and I only remember 2 reboots). I had the G2x for about a week. It was a nice phone, but the reason I took it back was because I bought it at full retail, and I just didn't feel that it was a $500 upgrade from the Vibrant. I'm spoiled by my Vibrant screen, and I don't have GPS problems w/it. I kept comparing my G2x right along side the Vibrant for that week. All my network speeds were much quicker on the Vibrant (I'm in Phoenix, AZ, typically getting 2.5Mbps - 6Mbps on the Vibrant, whereas the G2x kept dropping for some reason). G2x camera was a little better, IMHO, and the 1080p recording was nice, but in the end, it wasn't worth the $500 to me.

To me, in the end: Screen = Vibrant (big one for me); no lag = G2x (but only by very very small margin); GPS = tie; internal storage = Vibrant (big one for me); Battery life = Vibrant (very small margin after the G2x was cycled throughout the week); Camera = G2x (but not $500 better to me)

Liked the G2x, and wish everyone the best with it.

Oh yeah, I was told I sounded clearer/better on the G2x using my bluetooth headset, than on my Vibrant.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mmandros:
I came from the Behold 2. Had such a bad experience with that piece of crap, I may never buy another Samsung product. The issues with that phone were so numerous. There were a couple of developers that made a huge difference but wow, I just couldn't take it any more and had to dig deep for the money, just to save my sanity.

I am very happy with the G2x. Sure it has rebooted once or twice in the month or so I've had it. I'm still running stock ROM. I did root and install recovery so I can make backups, incase I screw it up. All in all a great phone. Looking forward to GB.

I absolutely love this phone! Very snappy and just a good phone. I have have reason to believe that these issues that people are having will be addressed in future updates. All phones have their flaws at launch, most of which can be fixed with a software update.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] WRX1:
Started with the iphones, (2g, 3g, 3gs) then jumped into the N1 on AT&T. Now I jumped ship over to tmo and into the g2x. Still in the air about the g2x, but the CM nightlies are getting better and better.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Black6spdZ:
Came from and going back to my HD2 with CM7. Love the G2X.. have yet to experience any of the issues I've read about.. it had the factory ROM on it about 30 minutes from the time I got it in the mail.. much prefer the GB ROMs I was used to on my HD2. Unfortunately my grandfathered $5.99 TMoWeb doesn't work on it. Before you flame me for not paying for the high dollar modern plans.. what would you consider a fair price for having Edge for most of your coverage area? What happened to the $2.99, $5.99, and $9.99 data plans of yore? I don't know about most of you but I seriously doubt the price for the build-up in infrastructure to carry the limited 3-4G area data speeds are a justification for the 3 to 10 fold prices in data plans. I am perplexed that the cellular industry as a whole is the ONLY one where even as hardware matures prices continue to increase. My first cell plan around 97-98 was $17.99/mo for 300min/mo and unlimited nights, weekends, and FREE SMS.. those SMS messages just take up SO much bandwidth ;)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] regP:
Came from the Vibrant. Was my first Android phone. G2x is better in every way. Performance, screen, battery life, GPS, build quality. And since i figured out how to end the sod and reboot issue I couldn't be happier. not even trippin on the upcoming update. everything is perfect for me. couldn't be happier.

Got the vibrant in August and had it til December. Went off contract to save money from December to April and had the Samsung intercept - virgin mobile. That was terrible. Now with my g2x for 2 months, its still just as exciting as the week I got it.

Probably wont leave it till there's a quadcore phone.

Mt3g -> vibrant -> intercept -> g2x

that's not including the g1 and mt3g slide I have and used for like no time.

Exactly what I meant. Thanks for being the icon of immaturity, you do it well.

I suggested a good developer for the g2x and that's when the immature comments started rolling in. Like "oooh you looove him"... Really? I thought for sure you would only hear something so ridiculous (and humorous) from a kid in elementary school or someone with downs syndrome.. actually they are probably even smarter than that.

Had the Evo for a while then got optimus v for a couple of months and now the G2X. The first one had a good amount of screen bleed but replacement is better but still has a some bleed. Ive learned to just deal with the bleed since I never use it max brightness in a dark room anyway. I havent had any reboots but then again Ive been running CM7 since I got the phone. Phone does get a little warm but never got hot enough to restart or too hot to touch. I guess mine isnt as bad as some other peoples. Overall im happy with the G2X.

I want to unroot my phone, obviously i deleted everything needed to go back to stock so i was hoping someone could tell me the best method.

I want to unroot it because I have a feeling my phone has some sort of defect a ota/root won't fix. IT will NOT download MMS messages at all, it was working two weeks ago but since all download messages fail, my moms blackberry and sisters iphone work fine but mine will not.

My phone was rooted a long time ago, like in october but I never installed any rom's or anyhting, it has superuser and clockworkmod/rom manger. Awhile ago I tried to install things on rom manager but never noticed any difference. I also did the fix permissions thing.

Just wondering if its safe to use http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=867648

and if i decide to just keep the phone how would i go about updating the phone to newer roms?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nunyazz:
The easiest way is to odin the DL09 stock rom to your phone. It will install the OTA to the latest firmware after you boot up.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beenz:
There is also a thread started by Adrynalyne that has the EA28 and ED01 update.zips, do you don't have to OTA the updates (which takes forever to download). The thread is about how to get the most updated radio.

Of course, using Odin will wipe everything off your phone.

P.S. Rom manager is borked on our phones, so don't use it
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OhioYJ:
Yes it is safe to use that DL01 Odin file, that is what I use. I would do that, then see if MMS works.
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] artvandelay440:
You could do it manually through adb:

adb shell

su (its going to ask you for permission on your phone so hit allow)

mount -t rfs -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system

rm /system/app/Superuser.apk

rm /system/xbin/busybox

rm /system/xbin/su

Been on to HTC. Guy sounded as if no one had ever mentioned it before. Suggested I go for a reset (after asking whether the clock was set correctly..!)

I transferred about 800 from my ancient BlackBerry, which could back up everything so far as I know, but HTC Sensation cannot back up its own SMS s ?? I find that astonishing.

Anyone got a work-around for that please? Sorry if this is off-topic: it is and it is not, if you see what I mean.

Well, I went through his procedure (which I will set out if it has worked), which was less drastic than an email I got after a "submit query" on the ht.com site - "factory re-set" etc.

I though it had not worked (pictures when backed up on the PC still said the false date) but I will re-transfer the pictures to my PC, because, now if I bring up a picture in "Gallery" and look at "details" on the HTC, the correct metadata appears for the date for all pictures, taken before and after the fix. So I will do a re-copy to the PC and see. And report back.
