  • you're sure that you updated to gingerbread 2.3 ?

  • @szabi50 yes, 2.3.5

  • @esco189 so this phone, the one in the video, did it have freezing problems, restarts and all the regular 2x problems with froyo ? do you have them now with gingerbread, or is it fixed ? please tell me, i really like the phone but if gingerbrad hasnt fixed it, then i'll have to go for xperia arc or xperia neo.

  • @Choice777 it came with gingerbread installed, guess there was no fix

  • @esco189 the phone should not be on 2.3.5 unless you rooted and installed a custom rom, and even then there aren't any 2.3.5 roms available only 2.2.2, 2.3.3, 2.3.7 sooooo. and not all of the G2X's have all the issues announced here. Mine for one doesn't nor do a couple couple of my friends.

  • @GUCHCARNAGE sorry, it was 2.3.3 indeed, didn`t installed any custom fw...

see all

  • 0 reboots 0 problems yes I agree about ics. But LG told me its up to them not tmobile about o. S.. so we will see. Are people still having major problems?

  • Sucks if T-mobile G2x doesn't get ICS 

  • Change your net work mode to WCDMA

  • Change your net work mode to WCDMA

  • Don't recommend 2g. also put my phone on network mode WCDMA. Now my battery lasts! Working normal. Check your lock screen app and put regular home launcher. No drain i m on 4g. Yes! !!! Did this work for anyone?

  • ALERT! Last night I tried the craziest thing, I shut down phone and turned it back on, then instead of choosing my app lock screen. I chose the phone home icon. wow! ! Solved my connection, slow problem , and yes looks like reboot issues too. Was having reboot once every 3days or somethin. Now working normal! ! Try it and let me know if it works for you. Thx!

  • To much cache! Need an app to clean cache when lock screen. Along side slow connection, I think it reboots to clear it self up.

  • Way to m uch cache! clean your cache download an app that will clean it as you lock your phone screen.

  • It reboots  because to much cache and frequency slow. at least that's what I believe

  • Yep! It has way to much cache that's why it slows down. Get an app to clean cache when lock screen.
