[T-Mobile LG G2x] matrix0886:
Sorry Core, but I don't see how a lawsuit would do any good. Stating that a phone "is capable of an upgrade" is different than saying "this phone will be upgraded." The first quoted text would not hold up in a court of law. All is does is simply state that the phone is upgradeable. Since they did state they would upgrade 2.2 to 2.3, then yes, I could see a lawsuit making it through court. But with ICS, it's different. They have simple stated that the phones will upgrade to it pending testing. LG can technically and legally not upgrade if they so choose, but I do feel that if they make an official statement that clearly says they will and then they don't, this very well could fall under "false advertisement."

It's not just about upgrading to ICS, it's also about not providing any upgrades to Optimus 2X (G2X) owners outside the U.S.A. although LG clearly states that the phone is "upgradeable" and that it will be providing an update from Android 2.2 to 3.2. A lot of people bought the Optimus 2X and G2X because they believed LG. That is false advertising which LG should be held financially accountable for, that's what small claims court and class-action lawsuits are for and that would be winnable in court. I agree that LG not providing upgrade to ICS may be tougher to hold LG accountable for if LG had not stated that the rumours that LG would not provide ICS for the Optimus 2X (G2X) are false and that LG will be providing ICS for it but they have now stated they will so, if they don't provide it, a lawsuit against LG for not providing it would also succeed. I think it is inexcusable for LG to state that they will be providing an upgrade (as stated in the information about the phone on 12/16/2010, almost a year ago) to Android 2.3 then not provide it or provide it when it has been obsoleted by ICS (Android 4). Consequently, LG is at the leading edge of obsolete technology.

What false information? If you read through the comments on the G2X forum and on the LG Facebook website and elsewhere, you will realize that everything I state about LG is true. Also, what are "Winders"? Also, do you have an affiliation with LG or is there some other reason you think that telling the truth about LG is grounds for "reporting" me for that?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spyvie:
The issue isn’t so much one of future updates, as the phone is now almost 7 months old. The problem is the phone never worked right in the first place. The Gingerbread “update” that we were subjected to as a fix was a little more stable but was a shoddy and incomplete rush job just to try and dissuade legal action. Were it not for the hard work of the developers associated with XDA and elsewhere the G2x would be essentially useless.

I don’t think small claims court is of much value, though I would cheer them on and help in any way I could.The class action lawsuit is still going on as far as I know, but only the lawyers are going to come out ahead on that front.

The trouble with complaining about it here on XDA is that this is an enthusiast’s board, not a BBB complaint forum. Because the phone does not work until someone takes the time and effort required to install CWM and flash a working ROM a lot of unhappy G2x owners who would otherwise not be here are posting about their unhappiness. These unsuspecting G2x buyers are forced to take up a new hobby before they can even begin to use their phone. There is no other place to go for information about making your phone work like it should have in the first place so here they are. The hobbiest types who belong here and who picked up a refurbed G2x for next to nothing take some exception to this kind of whining on their enthusiast’s forum.

I’ve got my phone working OK, though the FFC will apparently never be of any use and A2DP is borked as well… that’s not much value for my $300+ purchase with a two year commitment but I’ll live and learn.

What I have been doing with some demonstrable success is trashing LG’s name everywhere I go. It’s heartening how many other consumers I encounter who feel the same way about LG. Their support reputation is not good to say the least, and it’s getting worse every day. There is no doubt in my mind I have already cost LG USA some business and I will continue to do so at every possible opportunity. There are others like me. Eventually LG will be forced to either change their behavior or abandon this market. People like me aren’t going anywhere and we sure as heck aren’t going to shut up.

Actually the group that said they wouldn't be developing it for the O2x/G2x was "Life's Good" and the Company that said they would was actually LG with the group "LG Mobile", so therefore.... Wrong.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Core Memory:
I agree with your comments. You're in the U.S.A. where customers are more willing to complain and litigate to back up their complaints than where I live, in Canada. LG and T-Mobile, at least, provided some relief for the deficiencies of the G2X which they haven't done in Canada for the G2X twin, the Optimus 2X available through WIND, FIDO, etc. I paid just over $100 upfront for the phone priced at $445 plus 13% tax which which will be paid off by WIND's subsidy if I stick with WIND for 3 years. In the approximately 1 month since I got this phone, WIND has dropped its price twice to the point where it is now $0 upfront and $300 subsidized over 3 years. WIND applies 10% of the monthly cell phone plan cost towards the phone subsidy. If a person leaves WIND before the end of 3 years, they have to pay the outstanding balance based on the price at the time of purchase. A lot of WIND customers who were "early adopters" of this phone feel multiply ripped-off because not only did we pay top price, we also got a sketchy phone which hasn't received any updates/upgrades. That's why I am so pissed-off about this matter and am seriously considering litigation (my wife is a litigation lawyer) against WIND and LG.

I know that xdadevelopers is a site for enthusiasts which, ironically, I still am for this phone and deeply appreciate the help I've received from others who have posted solutions to their problems with this phone and from the developers who have struggled with and succeeded in providing the updates/upgrades and features which this phone should have had that LG hasn't provided for it. Ultimately, I may just throw in the towel and buy out the phone, sell it for peanuts, and move on to another phone with another cell service provider which has better phones and better support for them and their cell services.

My phone worked perfectly fine when I got it, the only reason I decided to root and, mod it was because I could and I like to customize things.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Core Memory:
That's in the manual and they publicly stated, in their own information from their own website in July, 2010, that they would be providing Android 2.3 for it. That assertion to provide Android 2.3 doesn't contradict the statement in the manual, it is in addition to it and was completely voluntary on the part of LG which is binding on LG as many purchasers relied on that statement in their considerations to buy the phone.

---------- Post added at 01:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:33 PM ----------

You're lucky and I'm very unlucky because I had my phone replaced 3 times within 15 days of purchase for various manufacturing defects and the phone I now have, the 4th one, has screen bleed due to leakage from the backlight under the display mask around the edge of the screen. Since I updated to the T-Mobile version of Android 2.3 from my WIND Mobile version of Android 2.2 my phone has better connectivity and longer battery life, improvements which I shouldn't have had to install which has voided my phone's warranty.

I got the OTA update on the way to a meeting and hit install, I didn't know until I got back to my desk I should have chose "update later". It has been updating for around 20 minutes (I had stock Froyo), so far it just seems to be sitting there.

How long does an OTA update usually take, for those who have installed it right away?

When you press "install later", will the pop-up reminder pop-up the next time you boot up or replace your battery?

If so, is there a way to eliminate the pop-up. I ask because both my wife's and my epics are flawless and we both have cwm for safety. I would hate to give that up as it has taken some time to tweak my froyo epics to perfection! :D

What is sprints problem we all beg for them to hurry up with it & now that there done they make the phone act like a little child "I am ready to GO DAD, I am ready to GO DAD,I am ready to GO DAD,I am ready to GO DAD,I am ready to GO DAD,I am ready to GO DAD," Just replace "DAD" with Halfass samsuckingsprintsballs POS update that cant even fix half the problems that where on DI18 2.1 eclair

Hello,

I just got my Skyrocket yesterday and promptly rooted it. I uninstalled some of the more obvious AT&T applications but there were some I wasn't completely sure about; so I decided to wait, patience being a virtue and all.

So, has anyone (or will anyone) come up with a list of the apps we can safely remove from this device without it affecting the performance/capability of the phone?

Thanks in advance.

[Samsung Focus S] StriderNo9:
The phone rocks, but it does have some flaws. Right now I can't seem to pause and play without pressing the button on the headphones like 2 or 3 times. I tested out a few headphones that I know worked on my old Focus and my iPhone and they don't work consistently either.

I also tried the Focus S headphones on my iPhone and it works perfectly. Anyone experience this?
[Samsung Focus S] jmerrey:
you know i have, i've been posting (*****ing) about this since sunday ;) I'm suspecting a major flaw in the design of the jack itself, but we'll see. The next track/previous track doesn't seem to work at all, and the pause/play seems to take some manipulation to work
[Samsung Focus S] adiliyo:
this happens to me as well, kind of really annoying, and really my only gripe with the phone. :(
[Samsung Focus S] Madmax0609:
I get a popping sound through the speakers in my car (AUX plug) when I change from track to track. I am using the same cord I used to use with my Focus and I've checked my Focus S in both of my cars that have an AUX input.

Has anyone else tried this?

Plug your phone into your car using a male-to-male 3.5 cord and play your music through it. When you change from one track to the next you'll hear a popping sound. It's much louder in my Lexus vs my Impala but it's obvious in both cars.
[Samsung Focus S] ldgus:
I am also having both the controller issue and the "popping" sound through the speakers of my car.

The volume buttons seem to work, but the play/pause button only works when I hold the button for a second or two before letting it go. Because you have to hold it for a second before it registers, you can't use it to go back or forward through songs. I tried the controller from my Venue Pro in the Focus S with the same results, so the problem is probably with the phone itself and not the controller.

Whenever I have an AUX cable plugged into my car with the engine on, I can here a loud whining noise that I assume is the cable acting as an antenna and picking up noise. When I plug in the DVP, it seems to sort of ground the cable and stop picking up noise even when music isn't playing. With the Focus S, the noise continues when the phone is plugged in and only stops when music is playing. During the short time between songs, music is not playing and there seems to be a sort of noise spike that makes a "popping" sound.

I suspect both of these problems are related and have to do with the jack as jmerrey suggests.
[Samsung Focus S] spampy22:
I have been having the same issues with both the Car playback and the controls on headsets. I really hope they fix this major flaw. This phone will go back if not.
[Samsung Focus S] jfreiman:
FYI I am using a stereo Bluetooth headset from Motorola and do not see any of the above issues.

Volume up/down, pause/play and skip forward and back all work as expected.
[Samsung Focus S] adiliyo:
that's because the issue stems from the actual headphone jack, it's not a software or firmware problem, but a hardware issue.
[Samsung Focus S] StriderNo9:
Okay I figured out how to get the controller to work pretty much 100% of the time. You can't just press the button, you have to hold it down for about half a second for it to pause and play consistently. Any more or any less than half a second and it won't work. I've been doing this for pretty much the entire day and it seems to be working now. Little annoying that it works on a delayed press but its better than not working at all.
[Samsung Focus S] jmerrey:
Yes, but you still don't get the double press for next track, or triple for previous track. I've been able to get the double press to work a few times, but that's it. I've also noticed that with aftermarket sets, like a beats headset, it's incredibly inconsistent. I really hope this is fixable with a software patch, but I'm not holding my breath.

[Samsung Focus S] Ikkari:
I have the same problem with my Focus S. The volume buttons are working fine, the problem occurs only with the play / pause button.

If you want to play / pause you have to hold the button longer than just the usual

short click. If you know the trick it works most of the time for play / pause, switching songs with a double click is almost impossible and very hard to time.

I tried it with the original headset from my Focus S and with the Nokia purity all have the same problems.

I also tried the all headsets with my Lumia 800 and a Omnia W all working fine.

It seems to be a Focus S only problem, not sure if it is hardware or software related.

I'm on 8107 using 2103.11.10.1 Firmware would a hard reset solve the problem??
[Samsung Focus S] aeppacher:
firmware issue

I have experienced all of these problems above and here are a few tips/fixes and ideas. First with the headset controller on the ear buds, I noticed if you press harder it picks it up easier. If you get it down just right you can time it for going forward and backwards. Still not a real fix. Its definitely the phone because it works on my focus, iPhone, and mac. Also, I think it may be firmware related because the popping occurs between songs for the aux cable in the car only when audio isn't playing, so I would assume it had something to do with the firmware, not the hardware. It distinctly gets quieter when music plays, even if the music is silent (just knowing something is playing is enough for it to shut up). Also I noticed that when I plug in my phone for battery, it connects, disconnects and then reconnects. I noticed this with the vibration (should only be once, actually is 2-3 times). And when battery is low you notice because you plug in, it disconnects and you get a notice of critically low battery, and then it connects. I think this may be the firmware that all the ports seem to turn on and off whenever given any form of stimulus (data or power sent through them).

[Samsung Focus S] dazza9075:
yes but didnt the LE2 software update disable your ability to interop unlock your device?

if we can get the phone accept our own signed cabs we can extract the driver updates, fixes and patches and ignore the diagnostic tool updates that disable our interop unlock method.

in short make a backup BEFORE applying any samsung OEM updates, when you need to interop unlock again, you can revert to your pre OEM update, apply the interop unlock again, then re apply the OEM update. from what i gather you are best doing this every time you have an OS update as there have been issues with restoring backups that cross OS versions...

Oh course you lose any unbacked up txts etc, but i think the benifit outweighs the hassle.

I got the firmware update, but it didn't fix my headphone issues. It is still incredibly unresponsive, and the annoying clicking that is head better via aux cable is still present. Anyone have the same issue?
[Samsung Focus S] aeppacher:
I actually rebooted and got the controls on my earbuds to work now. The annoying clicking when switching songs through an aux cable is still present though. I also noticed the usb power bug is gone. It used to connect, disconnect, and reconnect before whenever recharging at first, but now it connects and stays connected. I contacted Samsung support to get information on what was included in the most recent firmware update. I spent a good hour with Kevin as he tried to assure me that the update was not in Samsung's database whatsoever and that the update was released by Microsoft. So I asked him why Microsoft would release a SAMSUNG firmware update that affects how the hardware of the phone functions. At that point he said it was not in their system, not Microsoft's, yet it wasn't a fake either... I guess it fell out of a unicorns bum into the interwebs and got onto Zune. He did recommend calling the customer service hotline and apparently they would know more than the chat support department...
