Thrill 4G

Whos getting the Thrill 4G?
I think I may get it. This phone is great and all but GPS blows because of the mfg defect of the back GPS antenna not making contact. This proved a huge pain in the arse Friday when I actually had to use the navigation. In order for it to work correctly I had to keep my finger firmly pressed on the antenna...

It does look nice but I'm gonna stick with HTC products.

They meant the Inspire is nice, not the Thrill.

I was referring to the inspire having GPS antenna issues.
Now I'm thinking the galaxy s2 released Monday is a better choice.

The Thrill is my AT&T company phone, I'm an employee, and the battery life is ABYSMAL! If you thought the Inspire was bad, wait til that one comes out. Trust me, don't do it. Trying to setup my Exchange email, battery dropped from 93 to 79 in about 10 minutes of me fiddling with it. All on "4G".

The thrill is a nice phone to an extent. I am not a huge fan of the 3D screen on it but the 3D camera is kinda of cool. I would still rather have a samsung or htc device. I was playing with one for a few days but wasnt a huge fan.

This wont be on Att I bet though. And besides, it wont be much better than the sgs2 anyway. It'll most likely have the 720p screen to stand out.

Really? This (http://www.bgr.com/2011/08/17/lg-thrill-4g-review/) and a few others I've read says it's shipping with 2.2 with a promised 2.3 update from ATT. nothing about ICS
1ghz dual core is cool, but only 512mb RAM? running froyo? this doesn't exactly seem like a step forward. and if the battery life is really as abysmal as stated previously, it won't be something i'm interested in

Ah... :facepalm:
I swear I know how to read for content...
nexus prime has me drooling.

My wife and I get our upgrades in December and have already decided which ones we are gonna get. My wife will be getting the LG Thrill. I will be getting the HTC Holiday/Inspire HD/Raider, whichever it gets decided to be called after it finally gets at least announced.

I have already ordered my Thrill 4G from radioshack acouple of weeks ago... supposed to be out this week (sept 4th) now with Gingerbread pre-installed... fingers crossed!!!
my heart isnt set on the 3d asspect... it is the fact that is a dual core dual ram dual channel device... for 79.99 at radioshack and target!!!
thats a good deal... throw a custom rom on there with some optimizations..and there ya go!!!
i am a Samsung junkie i had only one other lg smartphone before... lg incite.. wm 6.1 SUCKED BALLS perfomance wise till i put custom rom on..
actually it was a tough little device.. basically unbrickable.
so if i dont like the lg thrill and really think it isnt worth it... i will take it back and i will get the Infuse... my friend has one that i put a nice rom on and it blows everyphone i have ever played with out of the water...
i love the AMOLED screen and the weight and "slimness"...
anywho,
Good Luck to me... gonna get it Sunday.

From what I've read about the Optimus 3D, even though it has only 512 of RAM, because of the RAM being dual channel it is still suprisingly not laggy, if at all. Yes, it would be smooth as hell if it had more, but reviews have said that 512 of dual channel RAM is not too much of a drawback.

It might be just me but the 3D gives me a headache.

News on the thrill...
Radioshack confirmed today... delays were originally due to the noted screen defect on several devices... secondly getting a manufacturing deal with corning... the makers of gorilla glass... they were supposed to get a deal... looked like they lost it... were considering raising the price... they worked it out and all is well... they also confirmed it will ship with gingerbread update installed....
Congrats to all those patient enough to wait!!!

After Consideration

So over decided I'm going to take my LG Thrill back for the Infuse. The LG build is terrible, the 3D is a gimmick, the battery life is horrible, and I can't stand 2.2.2 with no new roms. And the LCD Display. The Infuse wins and has an LG Thrill. Sorry guys. I'm out. Thank you for everyone that has helped me in the past. Goodbye.
Sent from my LG-P925 using XDA App

The Infuse is awesome, but wait till tomorrow and get the GS2. The Infuse development is going downhill FAST, all the devs are moving to the GS2.

The gs2 is 200 dollars. I don't have the money :/. And I like the infuse more. Its the screen and the MIUI rom .

Wanna trade? lol.
I miss my thrill
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App

id say keep the thrill. i have mine and at one point i started hating it. but dam its amazing now. i was throwing it between the infuse and thrill too. in the end its the exact same thing except it has 3d and the dual stuff. plus right now my thrill is soooo fast compared to how fast it was b4 when i did some things to it. battery life is decent. unless ur completely addicted to it, sitting in the closet and paying with it 24/7, the battery life is fine. especially if u order the longer lasting battery.

I think I'm going to keep it now, flashed the Thriller rom and now it seems that I'm fine.

let me tell you, watching 3D blu rays on your phone is DEFINITELY a gimmick.
definitely

Random

So tonight I found out why I loved my Droid so much... I installed the newest cm7 via ROM manager, first time using it pretty nifty, went and installed a new oc kernel that oced to 1.25. Ran a benchmark on quadrant standard and the revo only does 200 points better... I miss that old hunk. If it had a 4G radio I would still be on it lol

CM7 is no promise that your phone will suddenly be perfect. The revo will also need to be added to the official device list to truly make CM7 on the phone awesome. Then we will get real dev support (that is not a knock on anyone here or Cubed just have the actual cyanogen guys supporting the device is preferred)

No more hope?

I'm getting ready to dump this sob of a phone... I mean the battery sucks so bad, I cant go a full day without it dying on me and I hardly ever use it, I'll lock my phone and look at it like 10 min later, when no apps are even running and i'll be down quite a bit of battery (I've had to tone down usage A LOT coming from an Atrix 4g, I could go a couple days with some heavy use and not have to charge it, and now it seems like whenever I get the chance I have no choice but to throw this phone on a charger)
Besides the fact of a poor battery, I've always hated LG, they have crap for customer service and phone support, I figured something might change with this phone, but nope...
I was hoping for a GB update soon, but looks like those dreams are crushed after reading something on LG forums saying they probably won't release a GB update EVER! LG and ATT can go die...
Also the community for the thrill is relativity small and it seems like Dev's have very little to offer or gave up on this phone all together...
I figured I'm going to jump back on board with the Atrix 4G or 2... I'm undecided as of right now
So this is goodbye to everyone else who is in this community and noticed my little efforts in helping Peace

Check out the Rogers gingerbread thread the att Guys are putting the canadain rom on there thrills and getting awesome battery times it also fixes all the other problems of this phone should read the thread before u dump this phone it might change your mind

If you're ever thinking of selling/giving the phone to someone, let me know. It'll be a backup. In case I brick mine during development.

Yes, Rogers 925 getting 2.3.5
Sent from my almost cm7 p925

Well besides all the other reasons, did you try getting a different battery. I have no problem getting over a day's life of battery out my thrill with medium useage. The only thing that really kills it are the 3d games. Stock 2.2.2, rooted with about half of AT&ts bloat ware removed. I read somewhere (not sure where) about bad batteries shipped with a lot of these phones.
Yeah, the upgrade part and lack of support are downers, but overall this phone really is good. My uncle got the new Droid Razer and my phone out performed it on all the benchmark tests that we compared head to head.

At the very least, Rogers releasing GB is a sure sign ATTs GB has to be right around the corner.

Captivate (July 2010 release - updated to froyo 8 months later)
Infuse (May 2011 release - updated to gb 8 months later)
See the pattern......it's all at&!

Well I did that Rogers GB update... aside from the huge headache it took to get on my phone and all the crap apps from Rogers and what not...its a solid update. The battery is by far better I can tell you that for sure I'm happy and might just stay with this phone if it holds up tomorrow and on Tuesday...
Its so much smoother and my internet is blazing fast compared to froyo, for those who haven't tried this, I suggest you do so ASAP.

optimus 2x much faster than nexus prime?!

i was at a store today and i was able to use the samsung galaxy nexus for quite a while.. i was thinking of getting it next month but i was quite disappointed after playin with it.. my optmus 2x is much faster on ics! the only thing i loved about it was its screen... it was like.. whoa!! the perfect screen.. but even its launcher was too laggy :/ scrolling from apps to widgets screen made the phone look sooo slow.. what is your opinion on it?? should i get one of these or better avoid them?

Go fr it...nexus series has a great dev support..

My opinion is: do not judge the phone by how it behaves on the stock rom

hmmm i guess you are both right.. but isnt it strange that it is so crap out of the box?? if someone isnt in the modding trick he will be crying for the (lots of) money he gave for it.. and its the latest google official phone which should be flying while all the rest phones are walking..
