I'm new to the LG optimus g..literally just got this phone and so far I'm loving it now all I need is a good case and flash a Rom.case wise I just purchased an incipio feather case that should be coming soon..does anybody know any good cases like that that's available I can get? I've seen pretty much what's on eBay and amazon..I've seen the diztrionic case as well,any other 3rd party online sites that has optimus g cases? Now on to Roms..there's not to many out for this device I'm guessing not a lot of ppl like or have this phone or most ppl used the hack to make this phone into a nexus 4 and are just using nexus 4 Roms.but stock LG Roms not a lot out..will there be more devs making Roms for this phone? I'd love to see more roms/progress with this device it's a really awesome phone

Do you have the at&t phone or the sprint version? The incipio case you purchased is for sprint and you are in the at&t section.

Check the accessories section ...

yeah, with the cases this is already a huge phone, if you were to get an otter box, it would be even bigger.
i bought this.

as far as roms, I like it stock, I rooted it and removed some bloat. lots of folks are bragging on snowJB being good. I am kinda itching to put a rom on it, but this is the first andriod phone I have that I feel really doesn't need it.

My phone is naked except for what remains of the zagg...I still have the piece on the back cause it helps reduce the slippery.
I'm still using TheBase rom and am fine with it. It's fully functional with handy some tweaks. Once synergie gets the camera and GPS working, I'll move over to that.

Lol how are you gonna tell me I "ain't" new when I just got this phone.. and use proper english please "ain't" is not a word thankyou

I'm afraid it is a word. Webster's dictionary officially added "ain't" years ago. Go type "ain't" in your SMS app and see if it attempts to auto-correct it.
As for his post in general, I have no idea what that screen shot was supposed to prove. Forget about "your an of". You own an of? Wtf is an of and why do you own one?

On the ROM side we now have Cyanogenmod and AOSP under the "Original Android Development" section. There are a few bugs such as GPS and camera which do not work at this time. I have used both CM10.1 and AOSP OpenMaster and love both. The camera and GPS should be getting a fix soon.

Had mine about a month and a half. Got the itch a couple weeks ago and flashed Snow JB v1.1. So far it's awesome. Battery life is incredible

As far as ROMs go, SnowJB is amazing when it comes to battery life and performance. Though we don't have A LOT of ROMs, devs are hard at work getting AOKP, CM10.1, and CFX up and running for us. I was dead set against the N4 conversion for a while but decided to take the plunge with dv's CM10.1. I was very surprised with the speed and battery life it has to offer (along with the ability to underclock the GPU for even more battery life). I'll be jumping back and forth between LGOG and the N4 conversion until we get something stable going for us.

Couldn't wait any longer, bought a Nexus.

Well after waiting what seems like forever for ICS I just finally bit the bullet and bought a Galaxy Nexus. I can say without a doubt that I will NEVER buy a branded phone again.
Its so awesome having a factory unlocked device that comes with ALL original accessories and NO bloatware crap, in the intended packaging. Jeez. I was really disappointed with what ATT did to the sgs2. Also I hate how the resale of US phones are CRAP. I was having a great time taking care of and flipping my iPhones every year. Boy was I surprised when I came to Android. With an international, hard to come by phone like the Nexus, resale will stay high until I want to upgrade to something better.
I am totally happy with my purchase so far. The phone really is great and the build quality and design is superior to the sgs2. The screen is really excellent despite all the negativity I read about the pentile display. Yes ICS is the majority of the reason the phone is so great, but I would still chose it over the sgs2.
Good luck to you guys, hopefully an official ICS leak comes out soon because you really are missing out on a lot.

This came out sounding like a brag thread when in reality I am just suggesting that you guys consider importing international phones. They are the real deal and updates come 6 months before US, fake, counterparts.
Sick of being a slave to crappy carriers.

But do you see how this works?
When sgs3 gets announced I will sell my Nexus here in the US for top dollar and import the sgs3 and have it 6 months before anyone in the US. It will also be factory unlocked and hold a way higher value than the US versions AND ill get Google updates 6 months sooner.

No offence but this post makes you sound like a complete idiot. You provide no specifics other then its cool?? Having access to both (my gf has the nexus) when we are out she is always asking to use mine because it takes far better pictures of our kids, etc...I might have considered the GSM nexus but the camera alone is a deal breaker for me.

Because it will be 150 more and they have to order from over seas and deal with all that. A lot of people are impatient and want something they can get locally.
A lot of people won't know what the hell a sgs3 is when it drops and still think the Nexus is god when I go to sell it....

So he brags about how "cool" this phone is, but he's not using it.
Just what I noticed. I'm thankful for my S2 and I love it. I'll buy an S3 a short while after their price goes down. The Gnex is dropping in value, just like all phones. I've sold each one of my devices for nearly what I pay for them.

Cause TW is garbage. Plus Sammy = slower than balls w/ updates. To me the S4/Adreno 225 isn't that huge of a boost to warrant being stuck on a carrier controlled device. Yeah they say it does better in benches but I could care less. Tried my friends AT&t OneX and it was laggy to the max.
Really hate to see you leave, as i currently use your ROM, and its amazing. I have had this phone for only 3months, and was looking like there was hope for good developers on it, and now everyone's bailing out for the S3/Nexus. :-( guess I need to buckle down and learn to create ROMs myself.

Whats good enough for you is not for me. My brother has a nexus since day 1, the camera is essentially unusable, especially under low light conditions. Its not even considerable for taking any kind of pictures worth saving. The rezound camera is top tier in comparison. And i snap a ton of pics. If this werent the case, im sure i'd be very pleased with the nexus, but the camera is a deal breaker.

Another Nexus vs Rezound thread go!
I just think its funny, the power of marketing can pull people off a superior phone in terms of hardware just by hyping up an inferior phone and allowing more wide open software development. .........but when we get source what will be the difference? I dunno guys, I'm pretty happy with this phone and I really don't like these goodbye forums. It gives the illusion that something is wrong with the rezound and further perpetuates the hype and needs to stop.

Don't think they're implying there's anything wrong with the phone. But everyone knows there's something wrong w/ the Rezound's community/forums. That + dying development is imo pretty legit reasons for wanting to change phones. Hard to pass up the Jelly Bean!.

There is something wrong with the rezound, the community for it is dead and it doesnt look good at all for the future of the phone. Most people who are on XDA want to own a phone with a strong community, Rezound is furthest from it. I am waiting for the Note 2 and im done with the rezound at that point.
Thanks for the heads up. You've contributed a lot to the Rezound community.

Most of the samsung roms are buggy, except for the stock based one, unless it's a nexus. So not much to switch to when we have so many stock based roms here and a few aosp ones to come once a kernel is finalized, which should be soon.

The sensation has a smoother more stable AOKP port than the GS2 from tmo does, how's that for convincing ya to stay? Plus AOSP isn't for everyone so I wouldn't really recommend it unless you like raw vanilla android, which doesn't offer much eye candy the way sense and all these pretty UI's do, lol.
Once that current kozmik kernel is fully stable with the wifi issue, you'll be loving your amaze, lots of battery tweaks and the likes to come, .

Also they use cheap plastic to make the phone wich makes it not so friendly if you drop it the amaze back cover is made with steel so I would never have to worry about dropping it if I do the damage can easily be fixed with a new back cover with the galaxy if you drop it on the corner on each side it can leave a nasty dent that can't be replaced

[Q] HTC ONE with "Nexus experience"

By now I'm sure you've all seen that the HTC ONE is going to be sold on the google store starting next month. Apparently its going to run a stock google experience. Since m7 was able to be ported with little effort (or what at least seemed like little effort), will 4.2.2 be able to be ported over that easily as well? Now before you all jump down my throat yes I'm fully aware of the version that currently exists how ever there are still flaws with that rom (my hats off to those dev's regardless because there works is amazing). Also does anyone think there will be any benefit (other than future updates) that googles 4.2.2 will offer over what our devs have cook up?
Was going to ask the same thing. I hope this helps with great AOSP roms for the dna.

my first instinct is that yes this will benefit our roms seeing as much of the stuff that brought functionality to our current aosp builds was aided by the htc one devs(camera comes to mind)... hopefully alot of stuff can be pulled.. if not much at all, it will still offer some benefit.

Absolutely not. Screen is to big. 5 inch is pushing it to me. The gnex and s3 had perfect size screens.

I agree. For one, we'll never see this phone on Verizon. AOSP gets boing after a while as well.

Rumor has it HTC will be giving early adopters of the One the option to run a Sensless stock vanilla ROM. So, if they do that, they would have to make it a downloadable file which may make it that much easier for the developers.

I really hope the DNA benefits from HTC One's Google Experience.
I really don't want to jump to ATT Wireless to have my AOSP and up to date phones.

Two years ago they said the same about 4.3 inches. Bigger screens will sell. Verizon wants to sell. The math is simple. The new note is supposed to be around that area. Note 2 sells very well. Most people like bigger screens myself included.

Yea imho the 5 inch is perfect for a big phone, noticibly bigger than the HTC one. 4.3 is great for useres who prefer one a little more compact. My gnex is a great device, the rezound would have been if not for its thickness. If I want a phablet like the note 2 I see no problem with 6+in displays and will be getting HTCs new throw in the phablet market.

Yea right now I'll agree in a year maybe 5 will be too small for me. Its still hard to imagine how huge the droid x was a few years back lol

Can't wait for the source to come out on the HTC one Google phone should help clean up any lingering problems we currently have
Sorry but anything bigger than 5 inches is ridiculous. Pretty soon this will be what we will all look like.

I used to say my rezound screen at 4.3 inches was plenty big enough. But being used to the DNA, everynight when I get on my rezound to work on testing and scripts and such, I wish it had a bigger screen. What I'm really looking forward too though, is a bigger tablet. I'd love an 18 inch tablet that's thin and lightweight, and powered like the 383 stroker motor I built for my S-10.

New intriguing upgrade

Well guys, I've been a fan of the EVO LTE since the customs preorder debacle. There have been quite a few hiccups, 3 dot menu, multi-tasking, frapple, but they have all been ironed out to make this phone one of the best on the market.
Having said all of that, I am looking towards the future. Say early 2014; what are some upcoming phones you believe will be successor to the EVO LTE? If not another HTC then what if anything do u have your eye on?
I am just curious to see what the future may hold. Have dreams of octo-cores and 8gb ram that could rival a gaming rig nowadays, lol.
Was waiting on windows phone but the ones sprint getting are wack. Checking fot the optimus g pro or g2 and this t6/htc one max phone
I have my upgrade in March 2014. I've been an evo nut since the OG but I'm anxious to see what will be available at that time. Samsung devices are much easier to root and I imagine there are more custom ROMs available due to their popularity.
Sent from my EVO using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
@atheistevofreak you would think so with 40 million+ sales but if you check out the sprint s3 section they have as much to choose from as we do.
I upgrade in october but im probably gonna be holding out for the One Max hopefully for a deal on black friday. The Ultra Z is what i had my eye on especially with them saying theyre going to be on top of updates now and always dropping aosp builds for their devices but a 3000mah battery with that processor and display amongst other things aint cuttin it. The nexus 5 by lg based loosely off the g2 sounds nice even tho i want a bigger screen but i doubt its coming to sprint. The note 3 sounds nice also but i hate their current design and even more than that i hate how touchwiz looks which is a shame because the multi screen and other features are great. The Honami is too small for me but its camera is off the chain. I have no interest in the g2 even tho its not a bad device, just nothing special. And i have absolutely no interest in the moto x.
I am honestly, completely torn on this. Android has really left that newly-wed stage that was very exciting. I love what android has become but the aftermarket development has grown stale. It seems every rom is the same except for the boot animations and carrier banner. Aosp roms have all become CM/AOKP/PA omelets. And except for Venom and its tweak settings, Sense Roms are all Identical. Back in the Hero days, Roms were modded for performance and devs also put some creative, cosmetic changes, fully themed, new icons, different animations, and all custom notification bar icons. It seems like everyone is out to get there name in the books like they are earning money from this. Just relabeling some one else's work and calling it their rom.
I think this just might be my last Android Device. Not sure how Windows Phone and I will get along... Hopefully it works out...

The 1020 is a great phone.
As smooth as the os is, i dont like it.
To each their own though.
My buddy loves his lumia.
While they might have the same selection of roms as us, they definitely have a bigger user base

It must have been some kind of magic trick... I'll try to reproduce some day. (probably not)
Just read this:
"Contrary to prior reports, HTC One max is powered by a Snapdragon S4 Pro APQ8064 (4 x 1.7GHz)."
