If I sell my optimus I need only $20 more to buy a gio.
I just want to buy it bcos it has no problem with multitouch and no touchbug. And a little bigger processor than optimus.
Worth it? If not why.
And dont tell me to buy other expensive phones like sgs2 and such

Yes Gio has a 800 Mhz processor, but I don't know if it support flash player...
O1 has a 1.500 mAh battery instead of 1.350, too...

Need your opinion guys.

IMO, I would never/ever buy Samsung device again (I still have Samsung Galaxy), cause their support sucks big time. Unless the unit is from top of the line products.
Regarding Samsung Galaxy Gio:
- it has less internal memory then O1
- OS is 2.2 Froyo (don't know if it will get 2.3 version)
- 1350 mAh battery vs 1500 mAh from O1
- how much RAM it has is a real question (cause RAM is a must have)
In the end: I don't think that just because of a faster processor (800 MHz) is worth your money and an upgrade. Better wait till fall for other, maybe better upgrade.
So that's a big NO for this option (but in the end it's your choice).

There is no point in going for Gio, and selling Optimus one. Whats the major difference in both the phones except the Gio using chipset Qualcomm QCT MSM7227 which is overclocked at 800mhz. If you using custom rom, the least OC you get in optimus one is 729 which would be stable.
So does it make any difference of mere 70-100mhz. Offcourse, you can somewhat resolve the touchscreen bug issue through mik's kernel.
The rest screen resolution, camera etc are same. Its not worth to pay extra to get the Gio, when you have a working CM7/GB rom for optimus one.
PS: I am not sure about the ram in Gio, but if its <=512mb (optimus one), thn you are wasting your money.

i hardly think there would be a dev section for gio in xda so custom roms would be out of question...if ur buying a new phone,buy d 1 which has good developer section.

Exactly, plus increase your budget to buy a better phone in future rather thn selling the current phone and buying a downgrade phone with no dev support yet, plus ram is still questionable.
Guys guys I don't really care about custom roms or kernel. Because gio don't need them. It has nothing to fix such as multitouch bug or touch bug 100% cpu or gpu or whatever.
And RAM problem? I don't think so, my friend own a galaxy ace and has no ram problem whatsoever he even use 5 homescreens with launcher pro.
And the battery thingy, I do not care less even if optimus had 1500mah than 1350mah(gio) or whatever bcos I still ended up charging it every single day and same goes with gio in the future too I guess. So the difference is not that big in battery imo.
And like I said, I don't plan to buy gio for an upgrade phone I just want it because it has no problem especially touch and multitouch problem which optimus had now, and the official gingerbread rom kernel still hasn't fixed this issue.
Oh and no gingerbread updates? I DONT really care. Although I read some news that ace, gio, fit and galaxy mini WILL get gb updates sometimes this year.

No one has said anything about low ram ? Did someone ? I said I was not able to find how much ram does it have.
You should buy Gio, as you have already made up your mind and wasting time of others saying Gio has this/that. You get the reviews which are not bais on the device they are using. Good luck with your purchase.
Less Ram often means less speed because ram need to get flushed more often to load new data. Just like when using a pc. It's getting less responsive.
It will be a good riddance from our community!! Go for it

Update your phone to gingerbread from the LG update and see if you still have problems. The Gio is probably the better off phone if your looking for just stock, but the hack community here is the best and you will regret not having such a great team of devs that work on the optimus.

Title says it all.
Hey guys, I come from optimus one forum and want to ask questions and some opinions here since I can't find galaxy Gio forum.
Is it worth it? I'm so fed up of my O1 has some problem with multitouch axis and touchbug. I know theres a kernel for it but its custom kernel and it still doesn't fixed it completely.
I want to sell my optimus to buy gio. Gio has nearly same specs with ace except camera, ignore that since I don't really care with the camera. Is it worth it?
I see ace and Gio plays some heavy games like Gameloft perfectly and smooth unlike my O1.
I wonder if your ace and gio can be overclocked from 800mhz to 900mhz+? because my O1 can from 600mhz to 865mhz maximum.
So tell me your opinion. I know that ace and Gio has less ram than O1. What problem has you encounter with such a low ram? Or there is no problem at all?
Thank you.

For 2.3 gingerbread your background apps get closed a lot, that's all for ram. Overclocking not under development yet..
Edit, I'm referring to ace. Gio forum is not here.. I chose ace though because of the Turbo 800mhz.

I said the specs is the same 'except the camera' and except the resolution too which is not a big deal for me
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
I have both (well, my wife has the Gio, I have the Ace).
Ace has much better camera (Gio has no flash), and can take shots at night (though still not great photos).
Ace has slightly bigger screen, but same resolution - so Gio is actually slightly sharper screen.
Ace looks a bit nicer (IMO)
Ace seems more popular so there are more aftermarket accessories, and has a budding dev community (Gio has very little to no dev community AFAIK).
Gio appears to have less SOD's due to Wifi+sleeping issues (but I haven't tested the Gio too much in that regard)
Everything else seems to be the same (including the Wifi "Error" bug - at least with stock fw's on 2.2.1).
All other apps/etc/etc run similarly on Gio and Ace (with my limited testing).

Thank you for your comment and user opinion. And btw im not talking about ace, im talking about O1 vs Gio

Well i would never recommend you to shift from O1 to gio. Gio has no dev support !! O1 has a great dev support and i wonder why you want to shift. Gio also has low ram whereas your O1 has more ram and can be overclocked to perform well. If you were shifting to a better phone , then that would had made sence. But spending money and shifting to a completely same device with 0 dev support wont be a nice decision.

Hey guys my O1 is crashing and cant boot and i plan to buy a new O1
But theres a risk that i my new O1 maximum OC will be probably less than 700mhz.

So what should i do?

Guys
Mine is ARMv6-compatible processor rev5 (v6l) which came up with 2.2 v20e
And yes it goes stable in 806.
Does it have to do with rev5 which make it stable in that frequency ? Whats yours revs and how high ?
I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with v20e LOL

Ok so I'm new to the vibrant and I've been having some real crappy battery life. After like 2 hours of medium use on cm7 my battery is at 50%. When I was using my g2 I'd get like 8 hours of medium use running cm7 oc'ed 1.3ghz. But I have my vibrant at 1.2ghz and its horrible, same @ 1ghz. Is there any fix for this or should I start checking out some extended batteries?

CM7 isnt going to be the best battery anyway
flash a different kernel (dont know which iv never been on CM7) or go back to a 2.2 rom
i was using glitch hl kernel. and i dont get why i would go back to a froyo rom. froyo is outdated. but cm7 always had good battery life on my g2 so i dont get how a bigger battery would ause lower battery life.
Try bali kernel and callibrate ur battery with an app from the market u should see a difference

This should of been the orginal Optimus one.
It's gonna be released as LG Optimus Hub.
http://www.engadget.com/2011/09/13/lg-optimus-hub-officially-outed-as-successor-to-optimus-one-dyna/
If it's at least just "Optimus One with better camera" I'd say it'd be worth it for someone new to Android. Camera has always been O1's weak point.
The overclocked 800 MHz would be a marketing arsenal against the likes of Samsung Gio. Most people don't understand the difference between chipsets anyway. I do wonder if there's any noticeable difference compared to O1 overclocked to 787 MHz, and whether it can be pushed even further using custom ROM/kernel to >800 MHz.
Optimus HUB, previously known as Univa is a model that was designed to compete with Galaxy S5830 Ace, same processor, 5 mpx, but it has better ram memory, 512 against 384

Im fairly new at modding, but my guess would be that they are different phones and even though they work of simular hardware the way they work is different. There was a project working on this but it was dropped. My guess is if it was an option they probably tryed it. You have an 800mhz cpu? Is it that much of a problem, for me the biggest problem is ram! The majority of the time this is what slows down the ace, and even that isnt a huge issue.
