[LG Optimus 2x] chuckbartowski:
517.00 New Zealand Dollar, including shipping. SIM Free. Parallel Import. October 2011. Phone came from Hongkong. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] silentmelodies:
Bought mine for 5 million IDR, around 560 USD, on May/June 2011. It was the first and only dual core phone available here at the time.

Would have bought the SGS II instead if it was already out back then, but I'm in no way regretting my purchase. The phone has its quirks, but I still like it for what it is.

I'll be keeping the phone for at least 2 years, because I see little point in upgrading when the difference between last year's and this year's phone might only be upgrades in processor, RAM, and screen. Especially when this phone is still totally usable.

2013 will likely be the year of quad cores, HD screen, and bigger battery life as standard, so that will be time for an upgrade :)
[LG Optimus 2x] TommyToms:
£160 including next day delivery - Jan 2012

Secondhand, boxed, condition wise like 7 or 8 out of 10

Oh and also came with a free crappy silicone cover thing, no HDMI cable though :(
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
Paid exactly £200 free postage on ebay brand new unlocked. around 7-9 months ago.

Only thing missing from the box was the hdmi cable.
[LG Optimus 2x] reverendhtc:
I paid 17000baht in Thailand last September unlocked and sim free. I was torn between the O2X and the galaxy S2.

My wife has the galaxy and the power button being opposite the volume buttons is annoying as she tends to turn the ring volume down a lot.

I like the size of the LG, but I'm not happy with the lack of support from their developers. Overall I'm happy with the phone. I won't be looking to upgrade for a while.
[LG Optimus 2x] kruppin:
About 4300 SEK = 460 Euro. Brand new. A week after release.

Bought on contract on Orange (uk)

300 mins

Unlimited text

Unlimited data

24 month contract, including ofc the O2x for free and its costing me £17 a month.... started in mid june 2011 :D. Excellent price i thought, essentially paid £168 for it and £10 a month for the contract usage since giffgaff is cheapest and the £10 tarrif would be fine for me :)
[LG Optimus 2x] rosmarcelino:
I paid 950 reais ( 500 dollars), 4 months ago.

You don't have amazon.co.uk in Croatia? When I lived in Portugal I used it all the time :) Here in France I'll be using it too for video games and such, as I hate french :p
[LG Optimus 2x] xxMOISESxx:
Recently got 3 of these, all unlocked, first week of January (2 Dark Brown, 1 White) for 369 USD each.
[LG Optimus 2x] hicks12:
ta, it was the only reason i got the o2x really.. knew it was poor software but the XDA following was strong and hardware was hit and miss, took the punt as the SGS2 was £30 p/m on preorder, couldnt stomach that coming from my £20 p/m HD2 :D.

Now to just remember todo the cashback scheme via phones4u :).

[TouchPad General] djbenny1:
not sure if this justifies a topic of its own but i have kind of wrecked my hp charger cable by using it to charge my phone

i can only assume that the socket on my htc incredible S is tighter or something because the micro usb end wiggles around so much in my touchpad now it doesnt maintain a connection unless i apply pressure in a certain direction!

so just to let you all know, its probably best to keep your hp cable for your touchpad!
[TouchPad General] Adonis K.:
Why would you put it in your phone in the first place? They require different amount of power (tl;dr: you could have fried it).
[TouchPad General] darkassain:
huh? the device only pulls as much as much power as it wants

and it only pulls 2amps when the touchpad detects the right amount of resistance

he is talking bout the cable and actually it might be the "teeth" on the micro usb being lower than it should, i basically have gone thru 4 cables because they wont stay in the right place not only because they are recessed (which i have pulled back into place but because there is a crack on the usb port..:(
[TouchPad General] wonshikee:
I hate micro USB, such a flimsy design.

Basically some of the male ends are a micrometer thicker, causing the female end to stretch.

At least with TouchPad, you can get an inductive charger.
[TouchPad General] darkassain:
cant argue with that totally agree with the touchstone, oh if the tp was able to pull 2 amps that way though..:(
[TouchPad General] spunker88:
A switching mode power supply (pretty much all newer chargers) will put out its rated voltage as long as the current draw is equal to or less than its max spec. There is a slight variation between chargers output voltage but a few tenths of a volt won't do any damage.

I have charged all sorts of devices using the TP charger without issue. My Sansa Clip using a miniUSB cord, my Droid 3 using the HP cord. The microUSB plug is a standard so ports should be the same on all devices, but I really like miniUSB better. It seems like a more robust connection than micro which feels too small and flimsy.
[TouchPad General] wired84:
My charger has a usb socket so I was able to swap out the micro usb charger - can you not do that?
[TouchPad General] djbenny1:
oh yea, obv i can just change the cable, and quite cheaply, but was just letting people know that the slot on the touchpad must be quite big relative to other devices (though i can only vouch for my incredible S).

i'll have to buy a new cable now, though - no biggy
[TouchPad General] ViciousXUSMC:
Sand down those spiked nibs that are supposed to hold the cable in place, they are too big to be needed and cause extra wear and tear on the units usb socket.

Taking them down to about 50% size and making them not so sharp gives the cable a good fit where it wont come out easy but its not like pulling teeth.

I learned this with my N900 lots of users did it, and now I noticed the touchpad had the same kind of fit and cable, so I consider this a necessity if you want to prolong the life of your device and minimize the possibility of something happening like what happened to the OP, atleast for him it was the cable that gave out and not the micro sub port on his TP.
[TouchPad General] find7touchpad:
my cable stopped working a while ago so im just using my samsung and htc cable,samsung cable is a real nice fit better than the TP one.
[TouchPad General] Nophix:
The supplied TP cable is just a flimsy POS. I've bought dollar store cables that were higher quality.

I use the TP charger and the cable that came with my phone to charge both devices. I've been doing it for months with no ill effects to the phone.
[TouchPad General] tackleberry:
Micro USB is a horrid and fragile setup to begin with.
[TouchPad General] GoldenOski:
yup my usb cable doesnt work anymore. I accidentally tripped over it lol
[TouchPad General] vampirexhunter:
LOL good thing i bought 3 HP touchpad chargers over the weekend.

I actually lost the stock one.. so i 'stocked' up... just in case :D
[TouchPad General] wonshikee:
Just FYI, the default AC adapter that comes with the TP has two parts.

The front part rotates to separate it from the base, if it's rotated a bit - it won't charge, so double check that the front (where the prongs are) are tightened properly.
[TouchPad General] Frostfree:
Mine's developed the same fault using it on my Galaxy S2, it's now loose on all devices and I had to throw it away. I just think the quality's poor.
[TouchPad General] Isadora:
The HP cable for my TP stopped charging the device too, got in touch with support and a day later I received a shiny new replacement cable which *isn't* loose :p
[TouchPad General] Adonis K.:
my usb cable stopped working too (yesterday).

Well, it works but i need to hold the cable in a particular way or it stops.

Did any of you buy a replacement? if ya which one.
[TouchPad General] life:
Hmmm, I got the touchstone and haven't used the USB since, unless plugging in to the computer to move an update.zip over. Still tight fit, and with rom I'm running touchstone seems to charge the same as the actual charger that came with touchpad.
[TouchPad General] alzest:
It is actually a fact that the stock USB cables are of poor quality. So ultimately its not your fault if it goes bad. Just use another micro USB cable (even cheap ones you find at the convenience stores works great) to charge your touchpad. I've been using my micro USB which came with my phone to charge my touchpad and I must say its a perfect fit for the touchpad.
[TouchPad General] covert7:
Weird thing on power for this device: Buddy of mine has the 32g model and whenever he plugged it into a computer it would never charge. Whether he was using the default WebOS or CM7. But he recently jumped on over to the CM9 alpha and now it takes a charge from the same computer he's been using.

Also, he couldn't get a charge from other devices micro-usb charger (say a Blackberry's) but now it does.

Very odd stuff with this device...
[TouchPad General] flinkisme:
I've had good luck using the cable that came with my TMO G2 or the cable from my Kindle Touch. In WebOS mode, the system really wants that higher quality cable. The cheaper cable (TMO MyTouch, I'm talking about you) don't work worth a damn. Don't even try with a cheap multi-head cable.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsafety:
I have a Tab 10.1 with Task 13 slim and pershoots kernel. The device works fine but I have encountered a strange problem when I leave the Tab plugged into the Samsung keyboard dock while it is attached to the power cord.

If the power plug is disconnected, The Tab will eventually go to sleep just as it would if it were not plugged into the keyboard dock. If I leave the dock connected to power, the Tab will charge but at some point after it becomes fully charged, the device will lock up, requiring a reboot to get things going again.

Is this normal? I do not think the Tab locks when left attached directly to the power cord. The problem only seems to occur when sitting in the keyboard dock with the power cord attached.

If anyone has an idea why this is happening or how to fix the problem, I would really appreciate some help.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dextroamphetamine:
Did you use that USB charge hack? My first step would be undoing it if so. Also disabling any apps that have anything to do with charging may help.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsafety:
As far as I know, I have not installed a USB hack but I think that there may be something that allows USB charging in the Pershoot's kernel. I would hope that this is not the issue since being able to charge from a USB source is a very nice feature.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaaka78:
I have had the same issue ever since being on 3.2 honeycomb (any ROM, i've tried several). It didn't happen on 3.1 so here's hoping they fix it with ics or another update.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsafety:
I am happy to know that I am not the only one with this problem. The obvious solution is to not leave the device in the dock after it is fully charged but this is really inconvenient.

Hopefully one of the smart guys in the class will wade in with an explaination and (hopefully), a solution.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaaka78:
Just FYI, I've been running the CM9 2/3/12 kang and haven't had this issue. Seems to be limited to the 3.2 roms.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaaka78:
So I git tired of the CM9 bugs and the 3.2 sleep issues and reverted back to 3.1 (UEKME). I haven't had the sleep problem yet after running it for 2 days. I hope official ICS gets here soon. If not, maybe they can release a 3.2 rom without the keyboard dock sleep and wifi reconnect issues.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsafety:
I think that I have found a solution to the problem. I cannot take credit for this semi-fix. I found it in a thread in another forum and it seems to work.

Go to settings/applications/development and put a check in the "stay awake" box. This will cause the Tab to stay awake while charging. If you want to put the device to sleep, tap the power button. Tap again to wake.

I have been playing with this solution for a day and seems to work.

Phondogs review on the Sensation XL. I was surprised to see that it is faster than my Amaze with bulletproof. even when i was sense 3.5 on my sensation it wasnt this fast lol.

also remember gingerbread is only optimized for a single core...we basically have mostly a single core until we get ICS support...

bulletproof doesnt have bloat lol, yeah its definitely nice but i wouldnt pay the price tag

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] premaca:
Try boot into BootMenu and then go to custom/latest recovery? Did that work for you when you tried?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Proverbs2:
If the custom bootmenu is working properly, a blue LED on the phone should briefly light up each time the phone reboots (while the Motorola logo is being displayed). As soon as the blue LED lights up, press the volume down button. The custom BootMenu should display.

If that doesn't work, you could also try this. In CyanogenMod settings, go to Interface and make sure the "Power prompt" option is checked. Then, when you press and hold the power button and select "Reboot," you should see the option to reboot into "Bootmenu."
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tronjojo:
Thank you everyone,

i was able to get to the recovery menu by using the volume - at the blue light. still not sure why the reboot to recovery didn't work. it works now though.
