[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
I meant Sense is holding it back performance wise. Sense is a huge burden on system resources, especially the new version on the Sensation. Sense is the sole reason why the phone lags since its fast at everything else except the UI. Once I removed Sense it added about 80mb of RAM and using ADW makes it as fast as my G2X within the UI which is instant. I didn't buy the Sensation for Sense because quite frankly, I don't like it. Its to much useless eye candy and not enough function. I got the Sensation because of the display size and resolution since I read more than anything else with my phone. To be honest with you. Neither the Sensation nor the G2X really wow me. I cant wait until I can get my hands on the Prime or the Hercules.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BarryH_GEG:
You're right, Sense isn't holding them back. It's their lack of tech skills and just plain being cheap.

Samsung file system = EXT4, HTC file system = RFS

SGS2 RAM = 1GB, Sensation = 768MB

SGS2 storage = NANDFlash, Sensation = microSD

So bottom line, even with an identical processor, a Samsung phone will leave a HTC phone in the dust based on the above.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
QFT...Samsung is leaving everyone in the dust. At this point. I bet Samsung is the only manufacture that Google thinks has the Android experience right.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tackleberry:
At least I can see my screen in bright daylight....not too many HTC owners can say that with a straight face.

And if i read the process right, you have to download an unlocker for the bootloader from htc directly? If that's correct, if any of you out there think they did you a favor by unlocking the bootloaders, all they did was make it so your imei is in a voided warranty database. HTC just played you all for fools. Another reason why as of now I will not buy an HTC device. What I do with my phone is none of their concern.

Htc and all companies should allow the hardware warranty to stay in effect regardless of root access and unlocked bootloaders. Missing pixels, backloght issues, no charge problems, buttons fail, non responsive touchscreen, etc have nothing to do with software.

G2x with CM7 and faux kernel. NONSENSE!!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
Why would you every use the HTC software to unlock the bootloader. The Sensation has been unlocked for a month now without the need for HTC's software. If your hocking your phone, there is absolutely no reason why you would need to rely on HTC.

Oh, cool. You know what is responsible fir the unresponsive Touch Screen? I wish I would have met you before I exchanged my first Sensation that devoloped a unresponsive touch screen.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tackleberry:
Ok well I haven't seen the sensationless section to see what's going on. That's cool tho that its being done thru here, and that's why this site rocks. But the truth is, many people here will know better but in other parts of the e world people will follow the HTC site and the bottom line is they got those people by the balls.

I don't claim tl know why touch screen is not responsive just throwing out ideas.

G2x with CM7 and faux kernel. NONSENSE!!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mr mystery:
So all the players (Sprint/AT&T/T-Mobile) have there devices released tonight and ONLY T-Mobile holds back specs for release? WTF seriously? At least it is confirmed to be an Exynos processor.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] vapor311:
After the botch with the g2x specs they released I'm not surprised.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bigmixxx:
On The real.....

The G2x is still good by my stance.

I MAY pass on this one, depends on what it would cost straight up. Specs are nice, REAL nice...REALLY nice. But I'm not going to buy this phone......

[T-Mobile LG G2x] cwsmall:
G2x sucks from a development standpoint just look at the custom roms. Some haven't been updated in a month or more. I gives the appearance that they have moved on. No a2dp with 2.3.4 or 2.3.5. LG camera doesn't work with any other roms. Development seems to have stopped are stalled. I can't get HDMI out to work on anything but the 2.3.3 roms. An its not the cable of TV. Maybe I'm just spoiled from the last phone the beast that it is the great hd2. It's still going strong. I would like to find the next phone that will be as good as it from a development standpoint. So, I'll be making the switch. Can't wait.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mr mystery:
I'm all over that Exynos powered Hercules :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] eagle1967:
thats nice and all

But there is a reason they hid the phone under a box so you couldnt get into the settings.

"were going to assume"

didnt we all assume that the g2x would work without reboots,lockups, gps would actually lock in a position.

assumptions is not what we are looking for. and many other sites are assuming its a snapdragon chip so they can push the speeds to 42mb that noone needs and would seldom if ever see. the samsung chip only does 21 geez so slow. but cant stand next to a tower and say we doubled verizons lte speeds.

dont know what is true other than they are hiding something by keeping it locked underglass only time will tell.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mr mystery:
It's in the live blog, Samsung hailed it's Exynos as the best mobile processor available and it powering it's Galaxy S II line. No mention of an exception for the T-Mo line.

You are right time will tell.

EDIT: If it is a Snapdragon T-Mo killed the GSII on their network and I will skip it and wait for the Prime.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Beggars1923:
I will admit that the quantity of devs for this device is concerning.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bigmixxx:
I'd have to agree with you there, I'm spoiled by my hd2, and I know it. However, this machine seems to have been just kicking along fine. I'm not a big bluetooth device user, especially for headphones, so I would not care much. But development does go on.

This device is nice, imho, but time will tell...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BarryH_GEG:
If it had an Exynos chip they would have come right out and said so. It's not like they weren't asked. Why wouldn't they rather than let rumors swirl? Something's going on for the T-Mobile variant to be treated like cryptonite at a Samsung hosted event. Like the article said the lack of detail about the phone's specs and the fact it was imprisoned behind glass means something's up.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mr mystery:
Ya I agree, it just means the T-Mo variant is a fail and I'll wait for the Prime. As will many others I'm sure.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tackleberry:
I love the g2x hardware but the lack of cooperation from nvidia is crippling cyanogen and its starting to get annoying because other roms give me bootloops so I'm starting to get irritated with it. Considering Samsung wants to play nice with cyanogen this may be a match made in heaven. My G2x is great I love it but nvdia is not playing nice.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tackleberry:
Hell ill scarifice a little speed for a 4.5 inch screen!!!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
See I don't know. The 4" screen is already pushing my comfort zone while trying to hold and use the phone with one hand. Although the SGSII isn't really much bigger size wise, just a larger screen in a similar package.

I think I'm going to wait for the Prime. Google phones are just the bees knees.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LordButtersI:
You know, since Tmo enforced the Snapdragon for the Galaxy, there's a good bet that they're going to do the same thing with the Prime. There might just never be a better processor for Tmo phones, at least not from Samsung.

The only real reason this might not happen is that Google will have some interest in the fate of the Prime, but even then I can see Tmo refusing to carry the new processor.

So if you guys are really hell bent on not using the Snapdragon then you might have to jump ship. Google went with Sprint last time, might have to do that again.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gaww:
You might want to scale back until the kids are clear of college - lol. Then just imagine what kinds of device you might see,

In the meantime, if you use GPS's at all, you are missing a very important use for your device. And that is preloaded GPS apps ( not the over the air plus a monthly superscription rip-off.).

I have a TomTom from a few years back, and probably will not ever buy a dedicated device again for highway use. I paid all of $9.99 for an app, plus am paying $10/year for traffic (would be $60 on TomTom).

In addition to the above, the next most useful use is weather radar (especially if you are on a bike). The above two items are enough to keep me away form a jitterbug.

As for moving over to a Hercules - probably not right away and maybe not at all...unless cyanogen gets them to really open up their devices.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tackleberry:
The G2x has a lot of open real estate too it may have been able to push 4.3 in.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] vmartinez39:
Might stay with G2X for the long haul. This SGS II is a side-grade. Not a full upgrade. Not getting a carrier phone, actually will go for a Nexus phone only because you know there will be support for it. Not this BS, and the Nvidia debacle on the G2X.

Nexus for me. If i can find a bargain, then I will snag a SGS II.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Lightning Blue:
It looks nice but I may just move back to ATT for about the same cost (break contract/new contract vs buying a new phone outright, and selling the G2x to boot)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mr mystery:
So I noticed in the pics of the GSII for T-Mo in the case it has Netflix. That should be the tell there I would say. It is a Snapdragon processor. GSII Exynos is not yet supported for Netflix. Correct?

T-Mobile sucks balls, they destroyed a beautiful piece of hardware for a 42MBps modem that no one will be able to use.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] player911:
I thought they had Netflix on the GSII already. My Asus Transformer and I know the Galaxy Tab 10.1 (Tegra 2's) have official Netflix support now.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bighulk666:
I think t-mo is going to release another fail with the SGS2. Really odd why they would lock it up on a case and not let users mess around with the phone.

As others have stated, I'll wait till Nexus Prime comes out.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tackleberry:
Its either odd, technical, or ingenious.

Odd for reasons stated above

technical for reasons that its not a fully working phone

Ingenious to stir up the speculation and conversations on the web such as this one.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] AllGamer:
Even if it means switching to Verizon to get it?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] d12unk13astard:
Verizon is getting a droid prime, not the Nexus Prime.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BarryH_GEG:
It'll be the Nexus Prime everywhere but the U.S. VZW has the exclusive for it here. The exclusive is probably just for a period of time, most likely six months. Regardless, the international version isn't going to have T-Mobile's funky AWS bands so you're kind of screwed if you want one right away.

Wondering if anyone has any info. I'm looking for a star trek look/feel but more like the actual interface they use on the show. Not just a wallpaper and some colors...

More like a launcher.

I was using fluxed/adw theme, adw ex with a bunch of setting tweaks and metamorphed theme, then blew it up with a kernal flash, bad nandroid.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SwimDrewid:
Here you go.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] readingkeeper:
Someone requested it a couple weeks ago, and DreamsForgotten and Shane talked about it and said it would be extremely difficult to attempt.

If anyone were to attempt it, it would have to be very small steps to start with. Maybe the Starfleet logo for the vertical unlock icon, and the Enterprise for horizontal. A themed Swype would be doable. And maybe the little spinning hub things on the engines as loading icons. Thats all I can think of off the top of my head.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shane6374:
Yes, extremely difficult. Why we say that is because you will have to create lots of images out side of just editing the images in the apk (I would think this would be better done as a launcher than a framework theme), then layering the buttons, text, and other images within the xml, as well as repositioning all of it. The last issue is the 4x4 grid that the phone uses. Those I don't see that as a deal breaker, it is another obstacle.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Etrick:
That's kinda what I thought... launcher rather than framework hack. Perhaps butchering adw or something.

The pulldown animations really have potential too... something simple like glowing conduits that are very opaque and dark...

And it might not be so difficult to rob some architecture from a winblows theme as the huge icon widgets would make a better base. Widgets may be a direction to take. I have a copy of creative suite 2 on my mac but the hdd is soooo slow I hate using it. I could do some graphic work. Anyone got any links of a video showing the computer in action on a screen that would be a cool port? I've googled youtube to little avail...

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlanB412:
Hmmm, well that sucks. I guess at best all you could do is downgrade your phone to Froyo with PD15IMG, root your phone there with whatever method you prefer, and then upgrade back up to Gingerbread using a a custom rom like CyanogenMod or something.

If the Sense features are what make you want to keep the stock rom, then I recommend you upgrade to Virtuous Unity 1.31. It's got Sense 3.0 on it, and that's got pretty much all the sense features you'll ever want or need, and it runs pretty damn well if you ask me.
