Went to a Verizon store and they said that the reboot issue is still an issue for people. I've had 7 reboots since I updated the day the update came out.
I guess the messaging not working right, is an issue also but I don't have that issue.
Anyone having issues or am I the unlucky one lol??

Seriously.. I have had this on 2 different revos ever since going to Gingerbread.

I only get the unresponsive screen here and there and that's on GV 2.0 gets quite annoying especially playing games.
Random reboots
I am willing to see if I get the random screen freezes vs the random reboots I was getting on my GV install.
Yeah
I had the same issues and called Verizon yesterday to let them trouble shoot the phone and it went south quick. They had me try a few things and eventually done a factory wipe only to get to the language screen and once I selected next to start activation BAM! Reboot so they asked me what phone I wanted! Offered me a Nexus I told them no don't like them, and it was going to be a used one to boot!! So ended up letting them give me a Brand New Razor Maxx it will be here Friday!! Love the Revo only had it 3 months, but time to move on I guess keep up the good work guys you will eventually get these to work but I cant wait that long!!!
Just had my first random reboot, should probably call Verizon before my warranty runs out.

That's why. Give it a few more times and they'll switch it more than likely. They tried to get me a different phone but they said after multiple replacements they will send a different phone.

I did unroot before calling but it didn't matter, I mentioned the random reboots and threw in the unresponsive screen (even though it only happened once) The rep immediately offered to send a replacement. He first asked if I had done the usual troubleshooting (powercycle, factory reset, etc...) and I said yes.
But you would definitely want to unroot it before mailing it back
I only unrooted first due to the new remote access they have ... didn't know how much info they could get with it.

I can't post in the developers forum. However just wanted to notify the talented developer that the only issue is upon boot I get two error messages that flash by so fast I can't make them out. This occurs only with HL. I have formatted many times and am not new to working with roms. Running rooted stock right now with power button mod. I may try to flash over this with revolt 1.3. But I need bluetooth and love the lg widgets and ring tones. Its much better waking to soft ringtones.
That's just my feedback and thank you so much for making this even something for me to give feedback on. I await all of your next pieces of work.
Sent from my VS910 4G using Tapatalk
I know I did not provide much info on the error messages, but can anyone confirm? After initial boot no more errors. Are they related to the lg being ripped out and the phone is looking for it? I will make a video of it when I get home.

I'm sorry, I meant to reply earlier, got busy, and forgot. First off, thanks for the kind words, second, the quick flashes are coming from the automatic updater being disabled. It is trying to scan for updates, but is not about to since it is disabled.

Thanks for letting me know it was not me doing something wrong.
Finally, could you keep all the lovely alarm and ring tones in your next homeless version, you know the one that will have google tied into where bing is squatting like revolt?
Again, I appreciate what you are doing.

Kept wondering why I was getting such low download speed even on my home wifi. I suspected root. I hoped that was not the case. After going back to non root, my speeds have doubled. From 9mbs to 19mbs down. That's ****ed up. Is that the trick to roots longer battery life, cut the modem speed in half? Not upset with the devs, just upset I had to get rid of my root for full 4g.

Were you running another ROM? The reason I ask is because just having root on a phone should only changes access to the file system. However if it is the case that you only had root and no replacement of the stock system please let me know as I would like to research.
I tossed my Crap, Revolted and moved out of my Home.

v6 of android 2.2.2, it does not include the radio upgrades. If you want to test the difference you have to flash stock rom, remove CWM, upgrade to v6 with the new radio firmware. I was running the full v6 for a day and found the 3G and 1x(phone) to be very stable and I got better bars overall. (no 4G in my area till next month)

Strange situation happened last night/this morning...
Last night I had reflashed GV on a cache/dalvik wipe then DreadGinger. I was texting "jane" just fine then all of a sudden i would not receive any texts from her. She had sent me many and I wouldnt receive them, she could send and receive to others fine and so could I, just had the issue between us two.
1. I wiped cache/dalvik and reflashed GV and still wouldnt receive them (except i got one random one but that was it)
2. So then I redownloaded GV and wiped cache/dalvik and reflashed the new one and all is well.
Just thought inquiring minds would have any guesses on what could have caused this. If you flash a ROM so many times can it corrupt it? Or why it was just between me and her?
Lol Ik this is a lot just thought I would ask for future reference and cuz I'm afraid to flash anything now till ik what could have caused it
I've had the same problem with "Jane" a few times. She's using a stock Revo and I'm on Gvolt 1.3. I can't help with what's causing the issue but it always clears up after a reboot.

Don't update unless you put stock recovery back on other wise it will fail then you are going to see if you can get root again hopefully, one of the newer exploits for the esteem/spectrum might help with this.

Might go with this .. I havent been satisfied with how my revo works since I got it. Thought updates would help but no luck ...seems to me a big memory leak somewhere I can't even run my work app. Without issues and it is pretty rudementary ...my OG Droid worked great til screen died ..not a fan of LG myself either. So we shall see how it goes .....thanks for your input

I just bought my wife a RAZR MAXX and I'm impressed. I'd say RAZR MAXX all the way. The Revolution isn't bad once you get Gingervolt on it though. It's useless without it IMO.

Personally I'd keep the REVO (make sure it's ROM'd) and wait for the Galaxy SIII.
My LG G Flex running on the AT&T Network has a weird issue going on and im wondering if anyone has the same issue. Its a D950.
Not every time, but sometimes when a send a text message is will sit at sending FOREVER, like a full minute. I can receive text messages during this time just fine, and if I send more messages they sit at sending until eventually they all send at the same time. Did not happen with my last phone.
Anyone have any insight?

I have the same issue with mine. I have done the factory reset a couple times and it always comes back. it is as if the phone looses its "Handshake" with the tower while switching from LTE to non-LTE and such. I have had mine sit at sending for over 5 mins a couple times....
I contacted LG and all they said was to clear cache in the messaging app and if that doesn't work to send it to them for a software reload... Sigh..
