[LG Optimus 2x] goodmamba:
next time, Samsung

I have my LG O2X for about a year now and mostly I'm satisfied with it. It was 340$ and it worths every penny.

Still the main thumb down is for the fact that it packs a Nvidia cip! The Nvidia close source policy for drivers is all known and it makes every user unhappy. Adding to that the slow software development of LG and you get a phone with no future and no easy use.

Hope that my next phone will be a Samsung with all the hardware open for independend developers. I strongly trust that sleepless guy hacking into his phone and shares the knowledge to the public making it better for all.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

if you really mean that, trust me, ur doing something wrong... any rom in here is ages ahead of what lg gives you

guys for christ sake, nvidia doesnt have any fault in this. nvidia has a contract with lg, thus they cant supplie the drivers for lg products to any other person outside of lgs ranks, nvidia did supply lg with the drivers for tegra2\ics long ago. only lg is to blame now...

ICS MADE MY LOVE BACK (Yes, i hace no radio (AM/FM), No media accel, but IDC :p)

The only thing i miss is the OSP (On Sscreen Phone) I used it a lot ( and i had no battery issues in stock with it)

OFFTOPIC:i need to post in dev... :(
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
i love ics too, honestly more than cm7, but untill i get the same performance as cm7 or better from it ill stick to cm7, ill move to ics when some1 makes a 1.5 Ghz kernel with a decent I\O scheduler :D
[LG Optimus 2x] ch3lu:
I'm very happy with my o2x. Similar hardware than S2 or iPhone 4S at less than half price and six month earlier, at least in Spain.

CM7 adds a lot of lose features with stock rom, but CM9 with ICS is much better. I hope it get awesome when CM9 was stable!

Regads,

Thumbs up if you are here for the same reason :D:D
[LG Optimus 2x] slebit:
I'm pretty happy with my phone. But the lack of drivers from LG is really sad, it takes away the fun. It's not that fun to use cm7 even if it's a great and stable rom. You always want the newest!
[LG Optimus 2x] stallhagen:
Having owned the O2x for around two months now, I must say I am quite happy with it. I come from HTC Desire S, and although the Sense was well optimized, my O2x feels like much better quality overall.

Also, I literally made money by selling my used Desire S and changing to a new O2x :D
[LG Optimus 2x] sonic1995:
I was happy whit it, but not enough for me.... i bought today a Samsung Galaxy Nexus...
[LG Optimus 2x] daas88:
The phone is pretty fast, though it's nothing revolutionary I like the design, the only thing I'd complain about is that I have to remove the battery because it freezes once in a while.

But since I've been using temasek's cm7 since I got it I can't really complain, I'm using unsupported unstable software after all.
[LG Optimus 2x] mad_catmk2:
If not for the custom firmware/ROM/etc community I'd voted no a million times. But alas now using CM7 I really dig my phone (even though I hate LG, and to an extent NVIDIA...)
[LG Optimus 2x] dannystppls:
I really like my 2x, and yes the stock froyo was crap :P

But in overall i see my 2x still running the latest games, roms and apps.

And with custom roms it is even better then some phones my friends have like htc's samsungs and sony ericssons.

Mainly because my phone still works smoothly without returning it to the vendor even once.
[LG Optimus 2x] punyategar:
I hate stock roms. They were never good. Eat lots of ram, you can feel the phone stutters during games because of it. Stock roms never felt smooth. I dont know why that is even after oc'd kernels and tweaks by awesome defs. But things are so different after flashing cm7 kang. If you want to know how Android OS's suppose to behave, just go with cyanogenmod os all the way. Lots of thanks to Temasek's kangs, now my phone works awesome.

Dual core with better chipset architechture is definately the way to go for me. I still dont get why people pick up quad core with big screens, since battery tech hasnt been improved that much.

This phone is awesome because of good chipset, comfortable screen size, and cm7 kangs. Cheap too. :thumbup:
[LG Optimus 2x] Sörnäinen:
Absolutely satisfied. Hardware sturdy and performant, given the price. Bootloader not locked (hell, that was a pain with Motorola), and great custom ROMs available.

All fine. Just the lengthy wait for ICS sucks.
[LG Optimus 2x] pl3nty:
I feel the same man, great phone for the most part once you're running a Cyanogenmod rom... just a real pity about ICS.

Unfortunately LG + nvidia is something of a worst-case combination. One company can't find the resources to push out the binaries, and one won't disclose the source files :(
[LG Optimus 2x] Sörnäinen:
It was much worse with Motorola who also did everything to prevent people from rooting their phone or using custom ROMs. That was really a jail.

But I agree ... it's a nuisance how those companies abandon their devices right after market launch. Time for ICS.
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
they get battery hungry quad cores and huge displays so they can say "hey look, my battery lasts for about 1\1.5 hours playing a demanding game :D
[LG Optimus 2x] YorubaDey:
I sold my 2x yesterday. When I first got it the stock Froyo was so slow and laggy, I had a hard time believing this was a dual core phone. This was about 10 months ago. Then came the Gingerbread update, and guess what? It was still slow and laggy. After some time I installed an ICS rom just to try it out. The phone was much more responsive and felt generally better.

Then came the day I saw One X on sale by my network provider. I snatched it on the last day of the sale. I put my 2x back on stock 2.3 (This was a couple of days ago). I put my 2x on sale and it sold quite fast, luckily.

I have mixed feelings regarding the 2x. On one hand, it's a steal right now and I don't think anything can match it. But when I bought it, it was still on top of the Android chain, and it dissapointed. On the other hand if you are unlucky you will get a bad one like me. I had constant issues with network coverage, data going on and off randomly etc. I was in a dire situation once where I needed to find the way back to my friends place, because me and a buddy were lost. The 2x failed me and the data bugged, going on and off for no reason.

I just generally found this phone to be unreliable. It is good if you install a custom rom, but it shouldn't be necessary.

I just hope my One X won't dissapoint. I will never buy an LG phone again because of their poor quality software and slow updates.
[LG Optimus 2x] MOOSS57:
sIMPLY Nooo :(

Battery very bad, a shame.

No official Ics, always later

LG is Not a serious company

This phone could be much better very quickly
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
an sgs2 battery lasts less than an o2x, thats a poor excuse :P

agree that lg is a bit shady tho...
[LG Optimus 2x] xilw3r:
i just tried out cm9 on my 2x...damn is it smooth or what. but still not stable enough for me, though has got much much better since the last time i tried :) !

just got me waiting even more for official ics. btw the lg ui 3 launcher is really great actually ! if we can theme it, it will probably be my choice of launcher
[LG Optimus 2x] Sörnäinen:
I bought a bigger battery off Amazon for £4.90 - battery problem solved. But ICS really is a problem.
[LG Optimus 2x] timo625:
No I'm not happy with my 2X! Fortunately my SGS3 is already on the way to me :)

Yes, I will miss all the great LGO2X devs from here like Temasek, Owain and so on... but I wouldn't miss my O2X!

I wish all people here with the O2X a lot of patience to wait for the official ICS update! I hope you'll get it sooner or later ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] Micronuub:
Could i ask you for the link of this battery you're talking about?
[LG Optimus 2x] spica1234:
I doubt if nVidia will ever release Sources, may be they won't. What they've done seems monopoly. Kernel codes communicate with nVidia ROM binaries, by removing binaries its not possible to boot.They've used Smart policy by kernel dependent binary idea. Cause binaries falls under Android Apache Licence, through which nVidia is able to not release binary codes,

BUT as per their agreement with vendors (eg. LG etc.) Whenever new nVidia kernel codes is provided to vendor they provide vendor responsible binaries alike new nvrm daemon n other binaries seems recently updated with v20S. Now suppost LG decides to provide ICS and due to pre-protected older nVidia closed source binaries not compatible with HW accelaration, they've to providem them when LG demands as per their agreement. Suppost LG wants to provide update for Android v5 OS and if binaries are still incompatible and if its between LG and nVidia's agreement, they gotta provide to LG , ofcourse not sources but pre-built new binaries.

Thats the reason there is certain limitations in kernel codes, its hard to predict whats inside binary that kernel communicates? In simple ways some of kernel codes communicate with pre-built binaries and binary itself takes final actions. Kernel is open window while binary is closed window. We can see through kernel window about what is going to be passed to closed window but cant predict how closed window will behave with our modifications!

So atleast LG is not bad but yes if they want to release ICS TOMORROW they can with newer nVidia libary that nVidia will provide.

Somehow LG has improved now unlike froyo times.

I dont think nVidia will release binary sources, and evenif it'll, it wont happen in near future.

Hope it helps understanding what is what:)
[LG Optimus 2x] Sörnäinen:
sure!

Price rised since I bought it, and I just saw there is one slightly smaller that won't turn your 2x into an ugly, fat steamboat ... ;) But I really like the performance of the battery.

I didn't try this though. Given your situation it may be worth a trial...:o
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] Manipur:
Have tried that but it fails to install. The official swype beta says that the Samsung GT 7.7 is not a phone, thus rendering the download code generated after all the effort of registering in their website a waste of time. Right now, I am using Touchpal... it's butter smooth and free on play store. I am quite happy. But I do miss the shortcuts provided by stock swype in our beloved 7.7.

I have even done a factory reset to see if the swype keyboard comes back but it doesn't.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain Splash:
Hi Guys,

I've been trying to find "Badass Battery Monitor Pro" on the play store, however it doesn't show up. I did some digging and found that its something to do with the DPI (i was running at 260). I've changed it back to 320 (rebooted a few times and it still doesn't show. )

I also have the same problem with Juice Defender.

I'm running the German Official build of ICS. Other than being rooted and changing the DPI i've not modded the ROM in anyway.

Does any one have any idea why its not showing?

cheers

[Motorola Droid RAZR] anipiot:
Hi!

I actually got a Motorola razr and i was wondering to buy the razr maxx for his enhanced battery (because mine just can be used 1 day or less).:mad:

My question is: Do we have any chance to get fully working custom rom on our GSM razr Xt 910?:confused: We all need a good custom rom for speed and battery life.

If we can get this rom's soon i will buy the razr maxx and if we can't i'm thinking about buying the HTC one X who probably had more chance to get more roms (even if he his uglier than the razr....):rolleyes:

My razr is boring and i can't use unstable rom for my daily use...

Thanks for your answers!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] rushless:
If the Razr is boring to you, the Maxx will be too. The One series to me though is both boring and lame due to no sd card slot.

The Incredible 4g is better by default since same hardware AND a card slot :)

Not sure what the GSM version will be called.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] seanzol:
The Razr and Razr Maxx run on the exact same hardware, save for the battery, so any ROMs that work on the Razr will work on the Maxx and vice versa.

With that said, I have a Maxx and love it. I'm running ICS-based MIUI with pajn's internal/external SD card switch (because the MIUI port currently does not see external SD). I highly recommend it, it's extremely smooth and the battery life is good.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Lobo173:
I have the RAZR Maxx. I'm running the ICS leak. I'm really loving it! Once you get ICS hopefully you'll fall in love again.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] anipiot:
Thanks for you answers.

I'v read somwhere that the reason we have got no custom rom is because the bootloader is locked. Have we a chance that they will unlock it?

I'v seen that for USA /at&AT XT 912 there's more custom roms.

My XT910 need patched Roms that has some problems :"(h/w accel, camcorder still not work.)"... I'v already tried some but i'm not satisfied.

I like to try different custom rom's but actually, i'm hungry....

I was wondering if, soon, we can get more customs rom with customs kernel's, optimisations ect....

Thanks for reading ;-)
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guit4eva:
Hey guys,

Since I've had my Nook Color (installed CM7 as soon as I got it), I've never been able to connect to my wifi, I always thought it was my router's fault. The other day I got my girlfriend one, and installed cm9 on it for her. It connected to wifi straight away and browsed the internet with no problem. I thought maybe CM9 thus had a fix for wifi and installed it on mine, but alas, still no internet:( Has anyone had problems with their wifi on the Nook and been able to fix it? I REALLY want to connect, I just don't know what else I can do. Would messing with the partitions possibly cause this? It's definitely my Nook that is the problem, cause I did the EXACT same installation of CM9 on both of them, and only my wifi isn't working properly. Also, mine tends to freeze quite often on CM9, and hers does not? :confused:

ANY help will be really appreciated!!

The reason the bootable cards are working is because they start with a clean /data. The reason stock works is because the /data is setup properly to run with stock.
