That depends. No need for a2dp, then CM7 is the way to go. If you need a2dp then GR2 is the best.

Using cm7 for 6 weeks, it is a far better rom than original one. Very smooth, no bsod, but some fonctions are missing as said before. Don't forget to backup your contacts and so before changing.

Please tell me what are the functions that doesen,t work with cm7. If i will instal this rom, when the oficial update will be released, i will be able to update my phone with cm7 rom installed?
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App

A2DP and FM radio are a couple of things not working. Kinda miss the first one, but even though, CM still do rule.

Install MIUI or CM7. Allmost everything works.

I'm starting a campaign to tweet LG every day with "Warning: DON'T BUY LG their service is awful. "worlds first dual-core phone" they are refusing to update software for is useless @LGBlogUK"
Will also post on every one of their facebook posts a similar note.
If everyone else does the same then it might shame them into getting off their arses and doing something about it. I doubt it but worth a try.

Should i do that?

Hey dudes i am planning to exchange my hd7 with mango custom rom(2 month old phone) with an lg optimus 2x (1 month old) by paying some extra bucks of about 80 dollars( 4000 indian rupees ). Do i should do that? the reason is purely hardware and the plentiful apps availability for android. Though i love hd7, i need some more freedom, which windows never allowed me.
Please post your opinion.

We wont get ICS! This phone is great other than the lack of support from LGs technical department! Phone works very well on a custom rom!

If you like custom ROMs, get it. If you don't, stay away.

Rusty is 100% correct, with a custom ROM the O2X is superb.

So well dudes, i like custom rom, my wildfire runs on cm7 latest nightly. But what about installing it? Is it hard, i mean crackikng boot loader/ security etc? And what about cm7 on 2x, is it nice or gives hell of problems?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App

It's as easy to install as it is on the Blade, pretty much everything is functional bar FM radio.

Well i am yet to flash my Rom but the stock sucks..and have heard the custom Rom are good and with custom kernels like neoblaze u can overclock ur device as well.... dunno how hd7 is..never used it..

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.

Good the hear. The phone is pretty awesome. I actually got an extended battery before I got the update, now it last 2-3 days with decent use.

I just hate how the extended batteries look :/ I'm might just get a USB extended battery

Calling all developers

Thinking I will claim my LG Thrill as lost/stolen, pay the deductible for a new LG Thrill and donate my current LG Thrill to a well known developer that doesn't have the phone so you can root this darn thing and build us some roms!! Any takers??
Sent from my LG-P925g using xda premium

I have to have this phone for 2 years and i want custom roms darnit! I came from a HD2 which had me flashing something different at least twice a week, i was a flashaholic. I'm literally feanin to mod my phone.

Check out this thread... this is the best ROM I've found so far. CM7 nightlies are fast and smooth but they are buggy...

You should post this in the general general forum might get more ppl interested

Putting a CM7 Rom on the LG Thrill is pretty much pointless since you lose all the 3D capabilities of the phone which were the selling point of this device.

That's exactly why I went to Biohazard Kitchen ROM... it works GREAT. I've had 0 reboots, no ghost calls, everything seems to work perfectly.

LG Revolution for HTC Thunderbolt?

Need input, guys.
I've got a Bolt and a guy off of Craigslist is offering to trade his two day old Revolution with extended battery for my Bolt with extended battery.
What do you guys think about that? How does your phone compare? Is there good development for the Revolution? I only saw a couple of active ROMS on here.
Sent from my HTC ThunderBolt using xda premium

There's mainly one ROM creater, MT, but the thunderbolt is getting ICS and prolly has more devs. Its up to you. But LG support for this phone sucks. If you like the t bolt stick with it.

This is my opinion but keep the Thunderbolt. I was gonna choose that phone over the Revo but I chose the Revo and I'd say it was my biggest mistake since I like the Bolt more but the Revo's community is quite nice and welcoming not so sure about the Thunderbolt's.

Haha. Yeah there are some prima donnas on the Bolt message boards. Well he's agreed to give me his Revolution with 3000mAh battery plus $40 for my Bolt with 2 extended batteries (2400&2600mAh) and Trident Extended Battery cases.
Are there any recommended extended battery cases for the Revolution?
Sent from my HTC ThunderBolt using xda premium

There are no cases for the revo that fit the extended battery. Sucks

As of right now the only way to root it is to manually flash it with ZV7. You can then use MT's tools to root it, get your update to ZV8, and finally flash the Broken Out 1.1 ROM (which is awesome by the way).

Got it. So just downgrade to ZV7 and then root.
Cool. I'll mess with that in a couple of days. Thanks for the help.
Sent from my HTC ThunderBolt using xda premium

Welcome to the forum please feel free to post and ask questions, there are a lot of supportive people here that make the revo shine.

The downside is theres only a few rom devs the upside is the commun. While small its personal and you get the help you need quick. No cm7 yet but the roms we do have are solid and get updated quickly and often.

Well the guy backed out on it but I appreciate the positivity. Definitely lacking that on the Bolt forum.
