[T-Mobile LG G2x] Core Memory:
No joke.

Just because the Korean War was 60 years ago doesn't mean we should forget about those who were wounded and those who were killed whose lives were destroyed and ruined and why they fought.

Any particular cell phone, as a device, is trivial but that's not the issue, it's the abusive attitude and behaviour of countries and companies toward those who ensured their existence through fighting in a war to defend them which isn't trivial. The Korean War began because of the invasion of South Korea by North Korea and it was the U.N. which intervened because South Korea was incapable of defending itself.

LG, which is located in South Korea, a country which has cost Canada and other countries many lives and a fortune which is still being spent to defend it, needs to be reminded of that and that it should respect and be ethical in its behaviour towards its customers located in the countries which defended South Korea, including Canada. If Canada and other countries hadn't driven the North Koreans out of South Korea, LG wouldn't exist and the South Koreans would be living in Communist Hell.

guys, i think talking about politics is against forum rules. anyways, i agree with this, but WIND doesn't need this right now. id like them to stay alive! never will i have a phone with robelius. but if you get somewhere with this, all the best to you! im getting the 4X when it comes out. i like LG regardless of no ICS
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bluenote73:
Support the idea, but your Korean war references just make your argument weak.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] idropkickyou:
I thought the LG optimus 4x will not be released in canada
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Core Memory:
It didn't make the argument weak, it is my personal moral opinion about it adding insult to injury. The morality of their behaviour is irrelevant to the investigation and/or prosecution. Anyone may agree or disagree with my moral opinion of LG's behaviour but the integrity of the facts of the legal argument, that LG and WIND Mobile materially misrepresented the upgradeability of the Optimus 2X in Canada in its promotional materials, is intact and unquestionable.

LG not so good...

sigh... I am still paying for my Wind LG-P999... what a bad choice I've made. :eek:

Should've went with HTC Amaze 4G. At least Taiwanese companies are more decent in getting their updates for their customers without prior promises. :good::good::good:

I am sure it was not the Wind Mobile that pushed recent OTA for HTC Amaze 4G... I believe it was HTC that initiated the OTA for Wind even though we only represent very small percentage of their customer base overall.

"Upgradeable", I bought this phone because it was printed on the product information at the store. :p I have no more interest in buying phones that is MIK.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Core Memory:
I'm in the same situation with WIND, on a WINDtab+, for which I paid $100 up front and, after a year, I am still contracted with WIND for over $300 still owing which, if I remain WIND's customer for another 2 years, will be paid off. WIND's service is somewhat acceptable for what it costs even though, even in downtown Toronto, there are signal problems and coverage elsewhere is limited but it is expanding but slowly.

I don't want to pay off the remaining amount owing because the actual value of the phone is now $150 or less so I would be out of pocket at least $200 (I think the $100 I paid up front for this phone is about what it was worth to use for a year). I have thought about just buying another phone at full cost and using it with WIND while my WINDtab+ pays off the remaining outstanding cost of the WIND LG O2X/G2X but that would be foolish at this point because the O2X/G2X does what it is supposed to do as a cell phone and meets my needs, for now. Even so, that doesn't excuse the broken committment/promise of "upgradeable" that LG and WIND advertised for the WIND LG O2X/G2X which has seriously diminished the utility and resale value of the phone compared to the same phone in other national markets such as the U.S. where the O2X/G2X did get at least one LG/Carrier released Android update. I am really p*ssed-off how companies commercially abuse Canadians and that the government agencies which are supposed to protect Canadians from that abuse by enforcing laws against that abuse don't. If you think as I do, file a complaint against LG and WIND Mobile with the Canadian Competition Bureau which, if in enough quantity, may get it to actually investigate our complaints. If you haven't read my previous posts, please do, and use whatever you want from what I've written as part of the complaint you file with the Competition Bureau. Here's their web page about filing a complaint: http://www.competitionbureau.gc.ca/eic/site/cb-bc.nsf/eng/h_00019.html If you do file a complaint, please post their response in this thread.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yogosun:
Hi,

I'm on stock rom. But because of flashing a wrong zip (with aosp camera) my phone got into a bootloop. The first time it boots it go's to homescreen right before I have to press my pin. The second boot it doesn't go further than samsung logo. I tried reflashing stock ROM without wipe. Still got the bootloop after that. Is there a way to solve this problem? If not, is there a way to backup my sms and whatsapp in recovery?

Thanks in advance!

I love it. Guys are so thirsty for high speed data, but once they it get, they're realize the only true benefits are HD video streaming :rolleyes: I'm glad with Sprints 3g in the North of Boston market I could pretty much do what I want to do with my phone besides streaming videos. And with Verizon's cap you're pretty much only guaranteed 3 movies per cap. No thanks I'm all set.

Not looking for High speed data as much as I'm looking for data that doesn't drop to 1x constantly and can play my Google Music with out stopping every 20 seconds when I'm on the road..

But it's all pointless anyways because I'm going to see what the Hell Sprint is going to do. I've delt with them this long. I'll give em till June.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] papaklew:
Hopefully someone can help me...

Friday the 28th I attempted to charge my phone for the night in a hotel room. When I plugged it in a small puff of smoke came out the charging port. I immediately said Oh $hi+!! I kept it plugged in all night. The next morning and to this date (10-1-12) it won't come on and won't enter any recovery mode (volume up and/or down + home button + power button). When I plug it into a computer the computer won't recognize it either. I have taken out the battery so many times it is ridiculous. The phone is a GT-N7000 that I bought from Amazon back in December 2011. The phone also was not rooted and running ICS. I am hoping not to resort back to my iphone 4. All my contact were not saved on my sim card but rather on the phone.

it is possible that the battery has broken. Try a different battery

maybe the charging port of the phone got faulty.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Excappe:
I have an international SGS2 with CM9 on it. Everything was stable, but sometimes it just shut itself down and started up again. I couldn't find the reason for that. Anyway, yesterday i played around with the rom manager, it said there was no compatible CWM Recovery for the device. I did a nandroid backup, just as a security precaution.

As i booted up the phone after that, i tried to open an app, as it freezes and shut itself down. I tried to boot up again, it went straight into recovery mode. Restoring the backup didn't work (MD mismatch) and some other weird error messages appeared. I couldn't even mount the sdcard or wipe the cache.

I then decided to flash over a CF-Root Kernel (CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LPQ-v5.3-CWM5) with Odin. As I started the process, it stuck with the Label "KERNEL" and didn't go on (screenshot)

That stayed for over 2 hours until i shut the phone down (good idead? :S)

I tried the same thing on a laptop without any drivers (installed them new) and with another CF-Root and a CWM Recovery alone, all with the same results.

I don't really know what to do now, as i can't flash anything or enter CWM recovery.

I hope you people can give me some input.

This is the full Rom which should add your so called bloatware again.

Before deleting any apps you may first freeze them and see if all goes well without them.

Actually, there is no need to actually delete them. As long as they are frozen or disabled, they won't be active.

If I'm not mistaken, doesn't the user manual recommend NOT using a screen protector? Something about it interfering with the S-Pen.

But yeah, I'd go with something other than the invisibleshield, as stated above it adds a lot of friction (in my experience) and you get a sort of orange-peel effect.
