So I decided to try and contact LG to find out if we are going to get a GC fix and he told me they don't make the rom's that they just make the hardware its unbelievable that they do this to their customers, Never again will I buy a LG product... Seems like our devs are doing more trying to fix this problem for us then the company that we got our phones from.

They will never fix the GC issue. Just like the Thrill won't be getting Ice Cream Sandwich.
Why? Who knows. The P920, same phone, etc. is getting ICS. The thrill, nope. Unless a dev ports it from the O3D to the Thrill.
But where does that leave us who have the phone for 2 years "contract" I own a business and I can't keep having calls not come to my phone its making me lose business and its unbelievable that LG does not take that into consideration.
Leaves us "S.O.L.". Nothing we can do except wait for dev's here to do something.
As for LG not doing anything. That's horse dookies. Their bloatware has nothing to do with a carrier.
It goes Google -> Phone Manufacturer, in this case LG -> Carrier.
"Ginno" was probably an entry-level tech. Which anyone whom knows how to touch a keyboard or a phone screen can do.
I know it sucks, but your just going to have to get a different phone. Like many people, I run a business and I estimate, that just from the calls that I later found out I missed, it has at least cost me a few thousand. And who knows how many I missed and never found out about, because alot of people don't leave voice mails, they just call the next guy. I bit the bullet and got something else, and swore off LG for the rest of my days. I will never ever look at another LG phone, with there piss poor update schedule, and screwing mine up. Im stuck in another two year contact because of what they did to my phone. And something else that angered me, why are alot of the good apps not supported on the thrill. Gta3, and hulu plus for example? good luck in whatever you chose to do. LG don't care, they got your money.

I had the same issue, i couldn't afford to miss calls, and i was calling ATT for more then a month. They tried everything: changed some settings, changed sim card, and even changed the phone....so anyway after so many changes i've managed to get a deal "Samsung Galaxsy S2, no phone fee, no early upgrade fee and no 2 day delivery fee. So the only thing that was bad is a contract renewal. Good luck
The phone is buggy as hell... it really sucks too bc I can't sell this pos to someone knowing it has this problem...I've read v21e fixes GC but I've also read it doesn't idk I've been using a partial wake lock but haven't had time to fully test it. Ill be off on for the 4th and can spend the day trying to get a ghost call but so far I haven't had any. If this doesn't work I'm going to the GNexus.. LG has known about this since feburary and its July and still nothing... never again will LG get my money.

Contract w/ ATT up in June, any suggestions / rumors for a good replacement? Prefer HTC, maybe others? I want at least the functionality of the Tilt, and then some. Maybe WM7 based? I like newer stuff and don't mind tweaking, actually insist on some tweak-ability http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/smile.gif
I would go with the Pro2. It has the tilting screen that the Touch Pro didn't, and this time in WVGA. It will be released with 6.1, but will be upgradable to 6.5. In theory, it will be upgradable to WinMo 7 too, but only time will tell. The worst that could happen is you could have to flash a custom WM7 ROM. If you buy the Unlocked version from a place like Expansys-USA, I am expecting a price tag of at least $750. Check out this and this.

You know AT&T is going to fsck up the keyboard.
Unless something better comes along -- I plan to get the Pro2 when my Kaiser dies (or when the prices for the Pro2 come down a bit )
I will sure miss all the buttons and the jog wheel though
*This* was my next phone before HTC unveiled the TP II , now we will have to compare.
I know that T-Mobile will supposedly be getting the touch pro 2, but have we heard anything about at&t even getting it?
If my sources are correct, it is extremely likely that AT&T will get this, I believe by December. However, they will probably ruin it as usual with trial applications, junk shortcuts to their services, and they will most likely ruin the keyboard, etc. This is why I'm just gonna save up, pay more to buy it unlocked and bypass AT&T entirely.

I love it when people say "if my sources are correct"

Sam Lewis of ATT called me shortly after this tweet was sent out. He advised me it is ultimately HTC that is responsible for the bootloader being locked. Not sure how much keeping his job may have swayed his response but we shall find out soon enough
We need to make them aware that we know about Carrier IQ and we need it unlocked right NOW!

I fully agree. I really like the Vivid but I feel with out root and s-off Im not using the phone to the fullest. I have 15 days left and if the above is not done by then, Ill be ordering a rocket (which I do not want to do...)
I now have a phone dialog going with ATT Customer Care because of a few tweets.
They implied that they expect me to relay that information back to the community and said they realize by talking to me they are talking to the community as a whole.
I have kept the situation updated HERE
Wow! We have incredible people here. I really feel like we're all making a difference!
Is this going too far? I mean yeah its a stretch on the truth but they lied to us so why not..

the way I see it... a voice is a voice... even an angry voice.
HTC & AT&T need to hear as many voices as possible... go ahead and be angry... let them know...
I and others with direct lines of communication will be calm and reasonable and can point to the angry people... and say "see the natives are restless"
Looks like I should get a twitter account one of these years lol.
They don't give a crap if you contact them in an angry manner. Those of us complaining about this are a minority, most people that buy these phones don't know anything about this stuff. The majority have never heard of rooting, or unlocked bootloaders, or ciq. They may appear to be listening but if they really were action would have been taken already. I'm glad I'm not an overly paranoid person, I'd never be able to use a cellphone after learning about all of this info that is collected every day.

Your post looks exactly like the one I put on the "Why AT&T users should boycott" threadm, I'm glad someone shares my opinion lol. While a boycott does nothing because of us being the minority, spamming their social media can actually do something. The general public does have a Facebook or Twitter, so when they see people complaining every single day about the same stuff on HTC's page, that doesn't look good at all on HTC's part. It raises awareness as opposed to just quietly boycotting a device when we are such a small percentage.
I'll keep it short because I'm having too much fun with my new Galaxy Nexus. My Revo was having problems so I called Verizon yesterday to get it replaced (under warranty). They didn't have any Revos in the warehouse so she asked me what phone I wanted. I told her I wanted a Galaxy Nexus. She said it probably wouldn't be accepted because it is so much newer and more expensive than the Revo, but she went ahead and submitted it. 12 hours later FedEx shows up with my new (refurbished) Galaxy Nexus!
I've already got it unlocked, rooted, flashed, and overclocked. The dev community is amazing on this phone, and the Gummy Rom is amazing. I highly recommend this phone if you get the chance.
On a side note, my issue with the Revo was that it wasn't charging correctly. I thought it was a battery issue so I warrantied the battery and ordered a pair of extended batteries from eBay. Since that wasn't the issue and I no longer have a Revo, if anyone wants to buy any of my two stock batteries or two extended batteries with door, PM me.

BACK STORY:
Well, first I took it into a physical store and asked if there was anyway I could get a different phone instead of another Revo. He said their only option was if it was my third replacement but told me to try calling Verizon. When I called I told the lady everything I could think of to get her to send me a different phone. She told me her hands were tied and could only send me another Revo. I finally caved and told her to go ahead and process it. She then says, "Well, it looks like we don't have any Revolutions in the warehouse so we'll have to send you something else." She then began to read some options: Thunderbolt, Charge, Stratosphere, etc.
ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION:
I told her I really didn't want any of the options she listed and asked if there was any way I could get a Galaxy Nexus instead. She told me she is able to select it, but since it was so much newer and more expensive it would probably be declined. I told her I was willing to take the chance and to go ahead and process it. It obviously worked because I now have a Galaxy Nexus!
TL;DR
I said "Please submit the request for a Galaxy Nexus!"

3) How did you fix it or did it just do it?

Were you able to still use the phone?
Yea, Sucks.
Holy Cow Dude that looks terrible. I've not had an epic fail yet but I've overdone it recently. my Rooted HTC HD2 seems to have a habit of failing, freezing or rebooting right when I need it. I'm on my way home, i need to make multiple calls back to back and what happens friggin android phone freezes. I kill all tasks try to bring it back up, crashes again then instantly into a reboot.
LG Envy Touch.
Biggest piece of crap I have ever owned.
Complained so much to Verizon that two months after getting my upgrade, they let me get another two year upgrade price on a droid x and keep the envy. Lol. Sold it on Ebay for over $200.
Yea it sucked big time.
I had to deal with 3-4 phone reps and 4-5 store guy's before I got a new phone.
I will tell what they said:
1 phone rep said I needed to leave the phone off over night. ( Say what)
1 phone rep said I needed to clear all in all internet apps. ( So did not fix it)
2 store reps said I was being "slowed down for lot's of data use".
3 reps said it needed a fac reset. ( Did not fix it for long, came home and bam 600kbs)
Any way the new one is all good, but it was a pain becuase "it's the best phone they have". ( I am like I just want the thing to work right, telling me this crap does not make me feal better.)

Yeah it just requires a reboot but it happens every now and then not as often as the random reboots though
I think this phone or verizon is crap.
Well I should have not said all good with the new one, but a lot better so far. It has droped Data 2 times and fell back to 3G one time in the 2 days I have had it.
I don't know at this point if verizon is crap or the razrs are unstable. I know motorola is better than this so I think it's just the 4G LTE gsm and CDMA trying to work at the same time fail.
Edit: It's now doing it to. This is my 2nd phone and less than 3 days it start's pulling this crap.
Bigest phone fail us the Samsung intercept. It's the definition of crashes, freezes, slowness, freak outs, and miss sends and barely any apps work with it
Biggest fail for me was the Nokia N90.
Nice phone with nice camera features, but every now and then it drove me crazy with random resets or, sometimes, with unnoticed shut downs. It just resetted or shutted down in my pocket.

My phone runs out of memory with 12 apps

Do you guy think that our little phone will be able to handle the new OS?
I donno. Most people doubted it running 4.2 and now it runs better than even 4.0! I hope to have a new phone by that time, anyway.

If I get another phone I would go big hopefully note 3 is out by then.
I'm on the no contract plan so I just have to pay $55 a month, but my next device will probably be a Nexus...
*pops up out of nowhere*
First of all, KLP is probably 6 months away at least. There's been numerous sources and *ahem* confirmations (still not 100%, but enough evidence to be believed) that the next Android version to be released at I/O next week will indeed be 4.3 Jelly Bean.
Secondly, as long as camcory, smartguy, Tim, and the other geniuses are still around here, then yes, I do see the Exhibit running the next update. May take a while for various drivers (wifi, bt, gps, and camera come to mind), but I bet they'll be hard at work to get things going. It's the typical ongoing cycle non-Nexus phones always have to deal with. Speaking of which....

There was just a story on VR-Zone (June-12-2013) and they said that Google is optimizing KLP to run better on devices with 512MiB, and it's coming out in October. I'm sure i'll still have this phone by then, so hopefully somebody will be able to get it working.
