Hello, is US version of LGX2 come with AOSP Froyo or Gingerbread or LG own software like TouchWiz or sense etc...?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA Premium App
I believe it will be 2.2.1 stock AOSP. It will look similar to current G2 by HTC. It might have some Tmo apps like WiFi calling, MobiTv and some others. But maily it will be clean and free of bloatware from LG.

They have some specs and possibly all features listed on their website (coming soon..). Notably absent is WiFi calling. Wonder, if not, could the app be "lifted' from another ROM by XDA? Also, will it be compatible with the hardware setup?
That could be a deal killer for me otherwise - I use WiFi calling most of the time from home office, as WiFi is always on thanks to TMo US data cap.
It seems like on most tmo phones, the wifi calling is delivered over an ota update soon after release..
One more question guys, does the phone comes unlock US version?

Comes w/ 2.2.2 stock. Few T-Mobile apps thrown in: AppPAck, My Account, Qik Video Chat, MobiTV, WiFi calling, Zinio
Thanks guys, I have one more questions cause I don't want to create another thread. Is LG easier to port Sense? Since its on froyo? Cause SamSux use different file system and it's a ***** to port Sense. Galaxy S series, 4G, Nexus S only AOSP rom like CM7, Miui etc but not Sense. Is LG the same like Samsux?

Probably 2.2.x judging from all the press shots with the fugly default pre-Gingerbread status bar.
Sense can't be ported to non-Neon GPU's like Tegra2 until HTC or someone else rewrites the whole thing. Get LauncherPro Plus.

Thanks, I just ask in the Evo 4G thread there is no way to port Sense to LG or Samsung due to htc close source.
I guess I'll be waiting on htc so I can have both worlds AOSP cm7, Miui and Sense ui.

Hi everybody,
I gave my nexus one to my wife and started using wildfire. I tried Cyanogen but it is very slow. Cyanogen was my rom on nexus one. I tried wildpuzzle and open fire. Then i came with this rome. It is similar to wildpuzzle but (for me it feels) more stable and snapier.
You can download the rom from their web page. I recommend you to give a chance.

Hi, this is Villainrom that was launched last month? If so, i allready installed it and is ok. What do you know about the SuperVillain Rom, when will be out?
Thanks
And why is this faster? I see the last Screenshot on this Site and there are only 2.000 MFLOPS in Linpack. This is not very much.
It is not overclocked and i think it have the same Problems with GPS like the WildPuzzle and Cyanogen-Mod.
What is better in this Rom as the other ones?

Hi,
First of all, bogo mips it not a good criteria as it is stated in its name.
Second i feel it is snapier, compared to others beside openfire. It is a subjective opinion and i can not have any proof for that.

But hey, this is my wish. ))
Am I the only one that remembers why this ROM is not featured on XDA? Despite it's excitable release, pushing it as a bugless super ROM, it was later proved (and admitted) to be nothing more than a repack of DanneJo's WildPuzzle. There is nothing this ROM gives that Wildpuzzle does not, with the difference that Wildpuzzle is actively developed.
This is not a dispute of opinions; VillianROM is basically Wildpuzzle.
On an aside, although mega FLOPS are not a steadfast mark of a ROM's quality or speed, they are a good benchmark.

Nobody is pushing. I am not aware of the history or anything. I started using wildfire for one week and tried most of the roms. For me this rom suited best for me. I just wanted to share. Thats all
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
It was originally pushed quite heavily, with a lot of hype. It was promoted as having no flaws and being unaffected by the location bugs. However, this was obviously incorrect.
I just thought it was important to correct your topic; the ROM was pulled from this site, and it shouldn't be raised as a potential new ROM or good recommendation, when it is for many reasons, not. After all, it is pretty much just old Wildpuzzle.

How can i change the topic then ?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
You can edit the topic from the first post if I remember correctly, else contact a mod/admin to edit it for you. To be fair though, there is no need to delete the topic; it is just important for people to know that VillianROM should not be considered over Wildpuzzle, being that it is little but (originally) a vastly uncredited repack.

Sent from my VS910 4G using XDA App
Just was wondering how you Revo users were liking this phone... especially comparing it to the Motorola's and HTCs....
THANKS!!!
The button placement is messing with me but other then that it's pretty legit. I like HTC better as far as sense and what not goes... but the phone is good and you can just use launcher pro or adw launcher if you don't like the native LG. Also LG tries to incorporate "Facebook for LG " but it sucks so I just use the normal app ...I like the phone in general though. The speaker is kind of quiet but I use my beats by dre so that doesn't bother me personally...

I like the LG's organization in the menu's..very well done so you dont have to scroll up n down looking for stuff you use...4G is a great thing and in time will only get better...im still waiting for frontcamera chat updates like GB or 2.2.3 updates

Is it possible for someone to develop a ROM that supports video calling on 3g without any application... Just using my service providers video calling service?
Or any modification to stock ROM?

That sounds impossible, correct me if I'm wrong but even the ability to call (dialer) IS an app
What you're asking sounds impossible
That's a little bit too literal..
I think OP meant no Third-Party Apps.
Just using the built-in dialer app.
I think it should be possible to re-create the dialer .apk, but I'm inclined to believe that it's pretty hard.
Good luck though!
In my old HTC diamond this feature was there but then there was no 3g. Now we have 3g but this feature has been withdrawn. I don't know what's the logic.
I agree this should be default in every phone.
Anyone has any update?

Ahh I see, still.. that probably wouldn't be too easy to do. (Although I think they could probably manage it.. however coming from the nexus one/incredible s and now the atrix.. I've never seen someone do something big like this on xda yet!) so probably possible but is it likely? I don't think so!
Don't own one but I guess galaxy phones support this feature right? Even symbian... Just saying... I had a Samsung wave earlier and it had touchwiz... And supported direct video calling based on my 3G network....
Sent from my Incredible S using Tapatalk
It's bizarre how there's no 3G video call solution anymore on HTC phones. I used to call my girlfriend on her LG phone and mine was an old Nokia 6700 Slide (running different operating systems) and it worked fine, albeit pretty blocky picture quality.

I think Sammy phones can do a lot more just because of their proprietary file system.
It's like touchwiz on older phones is just bada OS with Android compatibility hacked in (galaxy s were supposed to be bada OS until Android caught on). At least that's the explanation I've heard. I believe it 100%, because when I had a vibrant all the roms HAD to be based off of touchwiz somehow or another, except for cm7, and cm7 just as bad as android ports to Windows phones, so it seemed like an 'Android port' to me
Sorry for rambling haha

my question is why is it important to you guys not to use an application?
Is it possible that HTC and/or Google doesn't want a law-suit on a patent infringement from apple?

Hello, I'm coming from my One XL and wondering about my bf's HTC Raider's very recent stock pushed update to ICS 4.0.3 and sense 3.6... I'm noticing HTC did the same thing with the raiders' update that they did with the One XL and horribly broke multitasking... My bf is pretty choked about it, and I'm disappointed in HTC's move to do this. I was planning to downgrade his phone back to stock gingerbread with sense 3.(1?) but wanted this community's feedback, perhaps recommend a Rom with ics and non broken multitasking?
After a quick glance, I can't see much reference to this problem for you guys.
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda app-developers app
What do you mean, broke multitasking?
Specifically - whats broken about it?
Say, he opens a web browser, then switches to music player, then back to web browser, just as one example of many... The web browser will reload the web page because the application was actually shut down when another process was initiated. The same thing with Facebook and many other apps. This is an issue very similar with the HTC One X out-of-the-box; HTC has "decided for us" that we don't need more than "X amount of processes" running simultaneously. With this said, the Raider handled multitasking extremely well pre-update with no problems at all; he could switch between chrome, trillian, music, the camera, and multitudes of other apps without any app ever needing to reflow.
I don't understand HTC's desire to cripple their phones as of late... The Raider worked beautifully and I'm disappointed to see HTC take this rout. The One X would work beautifully if HTC just screwed off with this vicious multitasking policy.
Edit: I'd also like to report that this update has also suddenly caused his phone to start overheating, too... Damn near burned my hand just holding the raider.

Apps usually get killed when the system needs to free up RAM, right? Could an app be eating up all your free RAM? Run SystemPanel Lite (free in the play store) to check out your CPU usage (re: the heat?) and your free RAM (re: apps being closed?)
Re: Going back to GingerBread. I don't know if the stock Gingerbread RUU rom will allow it to flash now that you are on the ICS update. I tried that once. It threw an error (complaning that the HBOOT fw version was not what it expected). I like ICS. Running a custom rom (Holics 1.2).

Applications are also killed (as of the Raider update, and stock for One X) after X Amount of processes are opened... Which is horrible because that even seems to include background processes... At least I think so. I'm surprised to see lots of ICS custom roms for the Raider and no reference to these issues, or any mention of this update. :/ But its definitely the update that's screwing my bf's phone.

Hypothetically, could I not flash a custom gingerbread Rom with cwm/twrp or would that cause issues? I'll see if he has any issues with a custom ICS Rom first, since this push update is so new maybe you guys haven't had a chance to mess with it yet... but IF it was necessary, wouldn't that work?

I haven't tried it yet, but last time I used it with my One X, it didn't produce any real results since the task-killer-thingy is, I read, embedded into the newer sense framework itself or something. Definitely worth a shot though...

Under development options theres something like Background Process limit...I found it plunking around with my HTC phone. Try that maybe? Google what it does, but im pretty sure it will kill your last process if you set it to no background processes.
If you tried this already sorry it didn't work
I got screwed up by the stupid AT&T update... it only half finished. I don't know why. I kept telling it NO, not to update. But at some point it must have on a reboot. In the update section it says, "Continue update" but clicking that does absolutely nothing.
UNFORTUNATELY, now I have NO WIFI and NO BLUETOOTH. Can't see any wifi routers now, and can't see any bluetooth devices. UGH! DAMN AT&T! I didn't even ask for an update. SO....
HELP ME PICK A ROM!
I used to flash ROMs on my older PocketPC phones... I flashed a Gingerbread ROM on my Galaxy Tab, and I flashed a ROM on my HTC Aria.
So tell me what your opinions are about some ROMs. Here's some features I'd like to have:
- ICS
- Newest Sense
- HTC's button dial command and voice dial that was left out of ICS (bastards).
- Native wifi hotspot
If there's a ROM that combines that and is STABLE, tell me about it! I want opinions.
There's really only one option and it's not on xda.

Are you just gonna leave me hanging with that?
I'm by no means an expert, but I've recently taken the dive into helping a friend with his AT&T Vivid. After looking around at all the ICS ROMs out there, the one I settled on was Extreme Holiday Dream X2...doesn't have the newest sense version, but it's running 3.6, so it's fairly recent. Also (again, not an expert), I'm not sure any newer version of sense would work on the Vivid.
Now as a heads up, most people don't seem to have issues with the ROM (and it is a very nice one), but we have had some problems that may or may not be related. First is WiFi constantly attempting to turn on and never working, which I think I've narrowed down to the fact the ROM uses the stock kernel, so I'll be attempting to fix that tonight.
Other problem is the ROM Toolbox not working, though I think that may be linked to the way I rooted the device since SU isn't giving permissions to it (set to auto-allow). That I'll be attempting to fix with SuperSU.
I know this ROM is stable for just about everyone else so far (no actual known bugs), but I don't know if it meets your last two prerequisites, since I'm not really all that familiar with Android devices in general yet. I'll ask my friend and see if he knows.
Due to my permissions right now as a new member, I can't link you to it, but you should be able to find it by googling. The thread I found was on rootzwiki.
Hope this helps. If I find out more about the button dial/voice dial and native WiFi hotspot support, I'll let you know.
EDIT: So I asked about the features, seems like it has the button dialer and native WiFi Hotspot, but not the voice dialer. I'm sure there's an app for it, but it's not native.
