T-Mobile G2x

T-Mobile G2x owners, take notice: this morning, the G2x's update to Android 2.3 Gingerbread was finally, finally made official by the folks at T-Mobile. The new software began rolling out over the air yesterday, although users that don't feel like waiting for the update to make it to their neck of the woods can still mosey on over to LG's website right here and install Gingerbread manually. The improvements contained within the G2x Android 2.3 update are:

  • Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) OS
  • Improved battery life
  • Improved front-facing camera operation when using Qik record and share
  • Improved disabling Car Home
  • Helps address unexpected reboots

Sure, the G2x's update to Gingerbread has been available through LG's Mobile Support Tool for a few days now, but it's still exciting to see everything made nice and official by T-Mobile. As always, we'd love to hear how the update's working for all of you G2x owners out there, so be sure to let us know when the OTA finally hits your handset!

Adrian Salazar Jr. Get the sensation 4g, u can't do shit with Samsung as far as flashing roms. The dev community is a lot nicer to htc than it is to Samsung. That's if u want to root just in case u get tired of touch jiz...erm...wiz...u can always flash something else. Samsung also sucks at keeping there phones up to date. The epic 4g doesn't even have gingerbread official or non-offical. Just saying...

Shariar Ahmed Guys I'm gonna buy a phone and ma choice is either GS2 or Sensation. Appreciate ur recommendation which one should i go for ??
Adrian Salazar Jr.
Adrian Salazar Jr. U prob didnt do it right. I rooted and flashed custom roms on several android phones and never gotten a brick. Make sure you read up on how to root and flash properly as it takes a lot of time reading to avoid bricking. I'm running sense 3.0 on my wife's mytouch 4g same as my htc sensation 4g and I can tell you it runs smoother on her phone than it does on mine...lol...

Kenneth Hamlin
Kenneth Hamlin Ive had it for awhile now FYI this breaks root and superoneclick doesnt work You have to flash a rooted ROM to get root back after you update
Michael Morabe
Michael Morabe OTA won't be out for a while more than likely Eddie. Also, you have to check out XDA forums to do the update for a DWP (refurbished) model right now. This is only for original G2x's =/ I now run Gingerbread on my refurb (2nd phone), and it's AMAZING!
