So I have a lg optimus 2x and it doesn't have the T mobile brand on it however, the person who gave me the phone was using it and is with T mobile and he was getting a 3g or 4g connection. If true, i tried my sim card i am not even getting a 3g signal, only Edge.
So, would installing a G2x rom fix anything or is that a brick i'll be holding?
I already installed the optmius 2x cyangon rom, rooted with super click but got no 3g so...
Any insight?
Open up the battery and see if you are P-990 or P-999, T-Mobile is p999.
The roms for these two models are incompatible with each other because of its partition layouts hence why there are two sections for this device. So installing a p999 rom on p990 vice versa will basically break you phone.
Maybe the option "just 2g networks"is enabled?

with cyanogen mod chosing the tmobile version of this phone, does that mean that the lg one, will get cyanogenmod support aswell ?
i am asking since i live in a country where the lg one is the only choise i got.
I think it will be relatively easy to port from the G2x to O2X and vice versa

What I wonder about is, that the G2x is featured with "4G-Support". When I look at the 2X I cant read anything about 4G... So maybe there isnt the same hardware in both phones?

I think the phone themselves have the same hardware specs but supposedly the partitions are different (ext3 vs ext4).
Also flashing an O2X rom on a G2x results in no phone support (from my understanding).
Best answer is ask @cyanogenforum but im pretty sure they will port it to o2x aswell

isn't the current porting being done on the 2x?? As @CM_acree started it at the beginning of April.

Loooool. I remember u. Good choice on ur phone
But I don't know how to answer it question. Return it and get another
Many people have their phone rebooted on them. I have the phone more than 2 months and not a single reboot

Well for starters I bought the same phone from Wind, and it's not an LG optimus 2x, it's a T-mobile G2X. This is very important to remember when it comes to rooting and flashing.
But from what i have been reading the shutdown and rebooting is a known issue.
LOL is yours from wind?

No mine is unlocked optimistic 2x

Hey guys,
I was wondering if you can help me out. I'm with Mobilicity and I bought a brand new LG Optimus 2X from Wind and unlocked it.
When I entered the APN settings data seemed to have worked, but then when it ran out of batteries and shut off, I couldn't get data working on it again.
I checked all the APN settings and nothing was changed. It even shows the 3G signal there as well.
Any ideas?

Check background data on accounts and sync, also check carefully whether you got the P990 or the P999, it makes a difference for troubleshooting.
Does anyone know what the unlock code is for p999x which is the wind mobile version for the O2X cause i was trying to change the region on my phone so i could get the update for 2.3 through tmobile and just flash it and get rid of all their bloatware.
Ask in the G2X forum, this is for P990x O2X's.
Well I know that but I ask here, cause my phone is the optimus 2x not the g2x
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
P999x is just a variant of the p990 its the wind, version also known as the optimus 2x
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
No it's not, it's a G2X.
It might be called an O2X and have the LG UI, but hardware wise, it is the G2X (P999).
Lg canada calls this phone a p990 so yes it is a variant of optimus 2x

G2x is p999dw optimus 2x has the exact same hardware as g2x
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
No they don't have the same hardware, the radio is different.
Look at your phone's box, it is a P999.

It doesn't have the LG UI actually. It's got a stock like experience just like G2x P999.

Oh that's cool, just assumed being an O2X it would look like one.
Really didn't know that lol well no clue why lg hadn't released 2.3 up here yet then

I was checking with LG on the facebook. They confirmed it is coming for LG THrill 4G. NOt sure if this is real or they are trying to pacify us.

Sounds like the same story, just different wording.
Sounds like the typical uninformed LG rep.
I hate LG so much and AT&T
If you don't want to wait for an update,the Optimus 3D already has official GB update.
I installed it. Lost my 4G,but works fine.
Sounds like BS...

I got a Thrill 4G as a spare phone with no sim card.
Are you saying I can just go in and install the gingerbread update onto this with no problem?
I don't care about 3G/4G as it's not a phone to me. (Aside from GrooVeIP)
You get 3G. Just not Foux G which isn't really 4G anyway. I rarely pull more than 1.5 down so I'm pretty much getting 3G speeds anyway
Hey all, I've tried searching and cannot find an answer to this question. I have the 4X and love it....but my data speeds are horribly slow. I am on the legacy Cingular 410 APN, can anyone suggest anything otherwise? I am in NY, don't know how much that matters. Also, does the 4X get ATT H+? I've only ever seen 3G or H next to my signal bars.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks all.
Anyone lol

Were in the same boat.. I use T-Mobiles 2g network and it's pretty fast for edge but too would like better speeds.

Everything I read states it receives ATT H+ speeds but speedtest results are slow and my signal bars only ever show 3G or H not once H+

Tried that and tweaker says the phone is unsupported for auto configuration and I need to manually do it. So I did and there was no change. Thanks tho.

Well sometimes it seems that the lg 4x needs the newest Typ of simcard. Why don't u try going to a local ATT store and see if it works better with a sim from them?

My SIM is at least 7 years old and it works perfect! I think there is something else.
Well I am in the UK on the three network in London getting 180kbs never seen h+ on this phone and never saw anything except. H+ on my. S2 the LG specs say it supports h+ but my experiences suggest otherwise.....
i am getting 900 kb/s on H in the netherlands:laugh:
