T-Mobile G2X finally gets the bug-squashing update it needed a year ago
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesT-MobileG2x
Once upon a time, the T-Mobile G2X had promise that no other Android phone had. The US variant of the world’s first dual-core phone was met with a lot of praise, which turned into a mess. The stupid powerful handset suffered from handfuls of bugs, which resulted in it being pulled from shelves, only to return with minimal improvements. Well, it looks like the handset may finally be receiving the update it needed out of the gate – literally over a year since its release.

RIP: T-Mobile G2x; was T-Mobile's first dual-core phone
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesT-MobileG2x
A screenshot of T-Mobile's recently discontinued items obtained by TmoNews, shows that the T-Mobile G2x was declared EOL on January 6th. Now many phones pass away with nary any notice. But the T-Mobile G2x was special as the device was the first dual-core powered smartphone for the carrier, while its overseas variant was the first dual-core model on the planet. That is not to say that the T-Mobile G2x led an untroubled life. Numerous times the phone was recalled and unavailable for purchase.
When the T-Mobile G2x first launched, sales took off forcing the carrier to raise the price by $50 to keep demand and supply in balance. YouTube videos showing the browser on the overseas version of the...

LG G2x for T-Mobile gets a second shot at OTA Gingerbread update
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesOperating SystemsT-MobileGoogleAndroid 2.3G2x
LG's G2x launched in April to reports of random reboots, overheating, and low battery life, but a July upgrade to Android 2.3 Gingerbread aimed to resolve most of the issues. In a somewhat odd move, T-Mobile has now started another rollout of the OTA updates, seemingly to catch any stragglers left behind. Along with the aforementioned fixes and enhancements of Gingerbread itself, the upgrade also improves the performance of the front-facing camera when using the video sharing app Qik.

T-Mobile G2x gets its Gingerbread on (again), hopes it sticks
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesOperating SystemsT-MobileGoogleAndroid 2.3G2x
The G2x just can't seem to quit Gingerbread. After a series of upgrade starts and stops, LG is once again offering an OTA software upgrade for this pure Google experience device. The update started rolling out to handsets yesterday, but those impatient to part with FroYo can always opt for a manual install via the company's site. If you'll recall, the one-time T-Mobile flagship's woes began shortly after its launch, when complaints of random reboots, overheating and poor battery life overtook dedicated forums. Yet despite promises that Android 2.3 would hit "soon" to address these issues, frustrated owners were instead treated to an on again / off again melodrama of scheduled releases. Now, ...

T-Mobile G2x Gingerbread update running through employee trials, "coming soon" just got closer
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesOperating SystemsT-MobileGoogleAndroid 2.3G2x
You didn't think T-Mobile forgot all about you G2x users out there, did ya? The phone, foreordained to become the carrier's poster child, didn't have the best launch ever; when you release a device plagued with glitches and a nearly-immediate inventory shortage, you're not really starting off on the right foot. Don't let those "out of stock" signs fool you into thinking the mystical handset has been completely wiped from existence, however. It's still around -- in fact, the "Get More" network is hard at work to give more, prepping the phone's update to Gingerbread that'll likely include much-needed fixes. We reached out to a T-Mobile spokesperson, who briefed us on the progress of this elusi...
