So I just made the switch from T-Mobile from my beloveded Sensation today. I was in my 30 day trial still (coming from Sprint to T-Mobile) so im returning it. Both horrible service where I live. So that's why I have chosen Verizon. I have the LG revolution for now until Thursday when my Bionic comes in I will make the swap.
Coming from two HTC phones (sensation and evo) I'm excited to check out the Bionic. Especially on Verizons lte network. Anyone else getting one on launch day or making the switch from another carrier?

getting mine on friday probably!!!!!!!
What is the best option!? I've heard Amazon, Best Buy, Costco? Any SOLID suggestions on where I should get mine on Thursday!??!
I will be switching from ATT. I have dropped so many calls the last couple of weeks it has been unbearable. The only bad thing is that Verizon is not officially in my county, but they have better reception here than ATT. The best part is that we have a huge corporate account with Verizon and I still get unlimited data.
Im getting mine from one of my local Verizon stores. Can't wait. Although I'm an HTC fan I think I'm gonna like using something different.

I will most likely get it from Costco on Thursday, because the have it bundled with a bunch of accessories for $299.
Gonna try costo myself...if it holds to be true with the included acc pack...crossing my fingers

I didn't even think of that... but since I purchased the LG revolution today to get me started I get to return it without the re stocking fee Thursday and purchase my bionic. I'm just hoping I'm gonna like it coming from the evo and the sensation.

If I don't buy mine from a verizon store, can I still use my new every 2 discount..at let's say...costco??
My Bionic will be here in the morning. I had the D1,D2,DX,Fascinate, and currently the Thunderbolt. The cool thing is i have not come out of pocket for any of my phones since the D1 lol. I hope something can be done about the bootloader if not of well Ill give Bionic to the wife and take her Thunderbolt

This is the updated firmware that came out a few months ago. It is Android 2.2 but supposedly has an improved radio and some other improvements. So far it is unrootable. Rumor says Gingerbread will be out sometime in October then progress will continue on CyanogenMod 7 build that TheCubed is working on.
I upgraded to this, replied on the wrong thread but here are my findings..
I am in NE Ohio and my bars are mostly full and 4g doesn't switch to 3g at all in my house but only had this for an hour now.. speed test pings faster and first test at 10Mbps when usually lower at home. Will continue testing..
Going from airplane mode back to LTE seems quicker.. Less lag time when going in to mobile data that you have to wait for connectivity. I think I will stay with this for now. I also want the GB update (rumored this month) ASAP and don't want to wait for someone to post it, then I can try to root it myself. *Fingers Crossed*
While you can never completely trust what support people say...

They were pretty good about the news when it came to the froyo update for the ally so im hopeful itll be soon
So we've heard a couple of second-hand accounts of a release in mid-October and now the LG tech saying "soon." This is good, really. It's just so hard to wait, since this phone isn't fully functional without GB. Pretty much nothing can use the front-facing camera until this comes out

Just so everyone knows. The LG Esteem is the same exact phone as the LG Revolution. Just a different carrier and different OS. Myself and mtmichaelson have been trying to contact people who have the LG Esteem to get a system dump from them to make porting Gingerbread to our phones easier. Hopefully we should have something to tell you guys soon.
Woot! Keep it up guys!

I'm not even really worried about rooting it. I just want it on my phone! Lol!
Hey guys, just a quick update before going to bed for 2 hours of sleep, root has been accomplished! I was able to help get super user working properly after they were able to gain access. It has not been released to the masses, but will be soon. In return for a little bit of my assistance, I now have in my possession the full system dump and the boot.img from the gingerbread build on the esteem and will be working to see if it can somewhat easily be ported over.

I just got a replacement thrill still have issues with the phone I was wondering if someone can help me find a link to when this phone will get 2.3 gingerbread
Sent from my LG-P925 using XDA App
It hasn't been announced and nobody knows for sure. Last date I read was Dec. 9th which came and went.
At&t promised GB to all 2011 phones by the end of the year, but when have they been known to be truthful?
Sent from my LG-P925 using Tapatalk
well you can just use the GB KDZ file and it would work.
If I have a replacement phone and the problems continue what will at&t do

Its quick, but its not very polished yet. I havebtried sk3 yet, but the first selfKANG was rather buggy. I'll be trying out sk3 soon. We'll see.

Just wanted to thank everyone here for making this phone enjoyable. I come from my og droid (may she rest in peace) to the revo and i thought I'd be stuck in stock rom hell forever but you guys have done amazing things with it, so thank you all!

Glad you like it! Hopefully CM9 can get of the ground soon to!

I'll second that!
I jumped to Verizon the day before unlimited data went away and the best option (only option, imho) was the Revo.
I was so disappointed with the phones performance coming of a rom'd G2X (left tmo only because of poor coverage in my area). Without this awesome community this phone would be next to useless but now even my girl (she got the G2X) is jealous! Thanks guys!
same....
got the revo day before they were about to close unlimited. at that time there were only 3 phones with 4g for vzw (charge, thunderbold and the revo)
wasn't very impressed at first but after MTs and the gang's work....its pretty sweet

That would be amazing... I can only imagine how difficult it must be to port to the revo. I hereby volunteer to be the Guinea pig! Lol
