Yeah, totally! And request Gingerbread!
What do you think abot that: (copy/paste from that site)
It's a battery problem. I tried an exchange G2X with same battery and had issues. Put a new battery in my G2X and issues went away. I get occasional reboot (once in 3+ days) but no longer get screen of death or overheating. There is a batch of bad batteries out there. Trust me.
Just a rumor, nothing true about it.....
G2X indeed has been removed
I believe that there is a problem with T-mobile being able to track data or something that effects bottom line. I don't believe the phone is defective and I own two. If anyone can provide settings for wifi in CM7. Currently running nightly #34---still no wifi since #20 for me. Please help.

Optimus Dual delay in updating the end of May.
released by LG in the Box on Thursday, May 26, 2011 at 14:01
.
We regret having to announce that the software version expected by the end of the month - in order to solve the instability problems alleged by some customers - has been postponed for several weeks. Troubleshooting is taking longer than expected because of the systematic nature of the anomalies reported, involving only a part of owners of LG Dual Optimus. Many customers have found the solution to instability in fact known (and reset the product off the phone is charging) with the upgrade to version V10b, we recommend that in any case to make. We also recommend that you reset the product to the factory settings using the menu "Privacy" after the upgrade.
However, we are aware of the hardships that some of you are trying with our product. All resources are stretched to the limit of LG to release a best software as soon as possible, but at present we have to move the deadline for issuing the second half of June. We will do everything possible to bring forward this date. We apologize again with all of you who have given us confidence when you buy LG Dual Optimus.
More news on the software release will be released on the official media, or the Facebook fanpage "LG in the Box" and "Italy LG - Life's Good"and the official blog LGBlog.it.

I don't think you guys will see Gingerbread (so soon)...
Second half of June (15th to 30th), lets say 20-25 days to possibly get the fix. I'm sure LG is not working on GB yet.
My 02x is About 2 weeks old and i have seen 1 random reboot.
Not very nice, Sometimes it is a little buggy. Obvious lg didnt work the software out quit well. If they did then this phone would fly..
About gingerbread, i guess we wait for it but it will come later as we espect it will be.. Like always!
G2X Pulled
Brief History:
Signed up as a new customer with T-Mobile on 5/25/2011.
Purchased 2 G2X phones one for me one for the wife.
My wife has had to exchange her phone 3 times. Each has been plague by random reboots. The last one rebooted 20 minutes after we left the store.
I have exchanged my phone 2 times. The first one due to signal issues. My data connection would cut out. The only way i was able to restore it was either a reboot or put the phone into airplane mode and then back out of airplane mode. My first replacement would reboot about 5 times a day. My latest's replacement has yet to reboot but it has the signal issue problems.
So instead of going for another exchange I called T-Mobile customer service. The tech support guy told me that the G2X has been pulled. They are telling their dealers to no longer issue replacements phones. Since I am a new customer they have extended my grace period to return the phone. They are going to let me wait until the Sensation comes out next week then I can exchange my G2X for it.
This is very disappointing news to me. When the G2X is working correctly it is the best phone I have used. Hopefully the Sensation will be better or just more reliable.
in the other hand, they try their best to distribute this phone as many as they can..... to make it ran out of stock
As I see, I guess there are approximately 5% of the total amount of Optimus 2X that got problem about freezing screen and reboot itself.
No one can solve this problem unless go back to LG and claim new one.
But, no one can make sure that the new one will not have the same problem again.
Now I am sending my 2X back to LG and wait them to send a new 2X back to me.
I am so worried if I get the new mobile with problem again.
So, I would like to know anybody who already claim the mobile from LG and still got the problem. I would like to know the statistics of the user.
If your guess is right, you will get a good unit with a 95% probability.
Sounds good, no?
Confirmed here in Netherlands people indeed got back a new phone with same issues.....
I got the g2x...and can confirm that my phone is not defective...works great..

i'm still using stock rom with v10b..never face the reboot issues
p/s this phone is really great!!
thank all guys, if I got a good phone at the beginning, I would not feel like this.
I'm in Thailand and I bought this phone on May 7, 2011 for 20,900 baht (~680 USD)
When Samsung Galaxy S2 is released, the price down to 15,900 baht (~520 USD) within a month.
The point is I got a problem phone. That means I can't use phone well along 1 month.
Feeling like I throw away 160 USD to LG for free.
for almost a month i didn't have problems but in the recent time it started to behave strange... today i had my second reboot...
i'm not getting some sms messages at all... however the sender got's message that it was sent... sometimes they call me, but my phone doesn't make any sign of it, but at the other end it is ringing...
kinda strange behaviour, not I am the only one with these calling and sms bugs...
the charging is also crap, somtimes i just charge it, and the charging indicator is tuck at some value, and the phone is really hot... then i restart it, and the value just jumps higher, and a temperature of the phone gets ok...
the charging problem seems a hardware issue... i'm thinking on sending it back... but I don't know what else to buy... this one has all the features i need, sgs2 and sensation are too expensive for me... so i'm hoping that lg will do something in the summer... otherwise i'm sending it back :S
My phone started rebooting recently. Yesterday it rebooted twice and tonight it shut down causing me to miss the alarm.
Before this it went 2 months without any reboots.
Wtf?
Installed anything recently?
Flash 10.3 update maybe?
I just heard an information from Thai webboard.
He said that the warranty of 2X can let the user claim it for only one time.
That means you cannot claim it again if the new one got problem again.
Suck LG
I have no issues either so I can't imagine having these reboots is like.
They said the same thing for the VIP service here in Netherlands. Max 3 swaps, But some people already did swap #4

Try to format your external SD. Upgrade to Fr18Rom. If the problem cannot fix. Return the phone to LG. It‘s hardware issue.

I am sure that
- ROM cannot solve this problem
- It MIGHT be Hardware problem, but no clue can confirm this (most of people still believe it's software problem)
I think some buggy apps and buggy kernel let your phone reboot or sleep dead.
I have never experienced the automatically shut-off/restart (not on stock, not on custom rom).
And when on custom ROM, I'm allways running OC 1400-1500MHz without any problem.
The battery-life is comparable with my last smartphone HTC Legend, It always makes it through the day.
After reading dozens of threads and reviews about all the trouble with LG Optimus 2X, it makes me think that I've got a blessed phone
Who else got a blessed Optimus? I can't be the only one right?

I bought mine this month, did you buy it recently?
Maybe LG fixed this with new batch of phones..
hehe yes i bought a weed phone in where
no i bought mine the same day it come on the market.
maybe i was blessed to get one without problems
I bought this phone from the first batch which came to Denmark, and this device had problems with stability, freezing and reboots. I've just got a replacement unit and this has already shutdown and rebooted in the 2 days I've had it
I bought mine from first batch that came to Netherlands, luckily it's blessed
Same. Aside from the screen bleeding on top I have no lock ups or reboot. Which is why I didn't return it back. I would replace the screen if I have to bit not return the phone lol

got mine when it was released in germany, after 2 or 3 weeks the reboots and freezes began to start, after testing cm7 i reflashed stock and since then i got a blessed one
I got mine over a month ago and have noticed restart twice, when I was leaving the country and switching to another SIM. After startíng the phone with new SIM card after few minutes restart, and since then everything fine. No BSOD, no screen leak.
I consider mine O2x blessed as well
So maybe it's about the sim? I have a blessed one too. Bought in the Philippibes, June 11, 2011.

I was lucky enough to obtain a blessed O2x as well. It runs like a dream - blazing fast while repping MCR FR17 without a single reboot! *knock on wood*
I really think that EVERYONE who have the freeze/restart problem should have a full refund or a replacement unit that WORKS. No matter how many times you have to change it. It's LG's fault this problem occurs. LG should take back all the faulty devices and fix them so this beast-of-a-phone won't have such a bad reputation.
Sincerely, Hopefully Soon To Be Optimus 2X Owner
Only have this phone for about 10 plus days. No BSOD yet, and hoping it will stay that way.
Blessed optimus here
All on stock, bought in germany about 2 weeks ago
Cool, seems like about half of us is "blessed" after all..
Optimus2X really is an awesome phone, and like others said it should not have this reputation of bad quallity...
LG really should fix this once and for all so that everybody can enjoy the power of the device without anooyance!

Piece of **** this is.
i'm not the blessed one, can't get 1,5ghz...
Mine (have it for 2 Months) is not that blessed but working quite well on stock updated.
It restarted 3/4 times over the 2 months that's acceptable and is a bit slow on certain operations (furious on internet surfing ). It's quite not significant compared to software stability I met with previous Android phone from competitors !
This one can scan and load to the library a load of music files without any pb...the scan of media is quite efficient for example.

Since Samsung appears to have fixed our GPS hardware on the newer and refurb phones (Captivate) is there no one that has found the fix from a Samsung tech? Or in investigating the insides for changes? It seems like everything else about these phones is out in the open. I have an old phone 1007 and it's gps works kinda. It would be neat to fix it.
Who's got the fix, come on out with it.
If you'll do a search on " GPS " you'll find theads like..
Best option for GPS performance improvement?
and True GPS Fix.
and Some background on GPS performance issues

and Can't get GPS to lock at all ,
thats a just a few off the first page I searched so, do a search, you'll find enough info to keep you reading for a week . Try each of the recommended fixes , that should keep you busy for another week. BTW, early made captivates just have ****ty GPS, good luck.
I believe, Hes wondering what the hardware GPS fix performed was. And if there is any noticeable visible difference between a working and non-working GPS. Perhaps to be able to fix it himself.

Yes, Coneykiller you are correct. I know all about the so called fixes that don't work. Now that Samsung is sending out the refurb's and they are reported to work what are they doing to fix this problem at Samsung?
Id say probably a new gps chip, but thats just a wild guess. Fixing that, I assume, would be on the micro level.

My refurb 1007 was way better than my build 1012 so I think they either fixed something or the 1007 was just better. I compared with someone who got a 1100+ phone and she had at least 5 db better S/N using GPS test. She was running froyo and I was running gingerbread so I had faster lock but I still had a worse reciever/antenna or whatever the problem was.
I'm sending back the 1007 and going to try again and see what I end up with. The samsung guy admitted that the newer builds had fixed the GPS. He didnt' say what was fixed however.

Past experience has shown me that software plays a big part in how well a gps operates on a phone (my tilt 1 was poor with many early roms then got great). The captivate gps was almost useable with gingerbread but was total crap with froyo.
I'm happy to say that the refurb captivate I just recieved (build 1101) has a kick ass gps even with froyo. My captivate is finally the phone I expected it to be.
If anyone is keeping score:
I started with a build 1012 that had a really sucky GPS.
My first replacement refurb was a build 1007 with a pretty good gps (much better that the first) but still not able to keep lock all them time when inside the car.
The 2nd refurb i got was a build 1012 with horrible GPS and now
My last refurb is a build 1101 with a stunningly good gps turning it on, out of the box, with froyo on it.
So, I can say confidently "The captivate HAD "hardware" issues with the GPS with build 1012 being the worst of the worst and totally crap".
How do you guys get replacements if at&t refuse to replace it because gps isn't covered under warranty. My phone has no problems with unexpected shut downs. There is nothing to prove it except the sucky gps.

The random shut-down thing seems to be their trigger. I returned my first Captivate to an AT&T device center with three problems. I walked in and said, "I'm having three problems with this phone..."
"First, the GPS is horrible. It doesn't even lock on a clear day. I travel for work and this isn't acceptable. It used to work pretty well, but suddenly doesn't work at all" The lady I was talking to (the manager) just stared at me.
"Second, the phone has Froyo available, but Kies refuses to do the update. It starts and downloads, then tells me it failed and to try again later. With Gingerbread coming at some point, I want to be able to update this phone." She continued to just stare at me.
"Third, every so often it reboots itself or shuts itself down and requires a battery pull to turn it back on." At this point, she started nodding her head emphatically and sent me to one of the reps to push through the exchange.
I traded in my 1007 for an 1101. The GPS works fine and it came with Froyo, but the shutdown problem is more pronounced. It happened to me twice in the last week (coincidentally, both times it happened while the Amazon AppStore was installing updates). I can deal with the shutdown thing once in a while if I have a decent GPS, but as soon as the Galaxy Nexus becomes available on AT&T, I'm getting one.
were you under warranty when you swapped the phone?

Hi,
Got a Note in the UK just last week, brand new, and within two days I flashed it to the German stock ICS update. I can't say that I noticed issues in the first few days, but that could be because I didn't get a lot of time with it.
Since then, however, now that it is all set up and configured, I'm noticing random spontaneous reboots during sleep on the device, anything between every 2 to 6 hours, no warning, just the phone suddenly flashing into life with the model splash screen, followed by startup animation.
Reading around I've followed all kinds of anecdotal cures... I've removed Apex Launcher and Widget Locker, and returned to TWLauncher and stock dialer. I've moved all my apps from external SD to phone internal and deleted App2SDpro. I've cancelled all automatic syncs. I'm not rooted and don't have any iffy software on it.
Does anyone please have any ideas on this?
No ideas?
Since the update mine does exactly the same thing. Sometimes it reboots after every hour or so but then sometimes it happens every 5 hours. Its completely random and has started happening since the ICS update.
Hmmm. I'm wondering if I should do another full install, or if this is a bug that will be absent in the official UK version of the new OS/firmware update.
I wonder if it is somehow specific to UK users?
It annoys the pants off me, because it will happen, then I'll delete a load of software and restart manually, then it will behave sometimes (like today) for 11-12 hours. And then it does it again. And again. I've had 12 hours between reboots from yesterday to today, and then today I've had three in four hours, including one after just an 11 minute interval, while the phone was on standby.
Is there anything that can be a 'variable' on an 'international' Note which might be an incompatibility in one territory but not another?
Sim? Network? Wifi?
I'm in UK, and was on German Ics official until today . Started experiencing fcs on random apps, from what I've read elsewhere that can be the start of a superbrick. I would highly recommend flashing back to stable GB immediately.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Well... We may be seeing an improvement.
When I installed German ICS on my UK Note I did it as an upgrade. So yesterday afternoon I put the note to sleep and then rebooted into hard reset. I got myself a nice clean system and after lots of restoring files and reinstalling apps, I now have a Note that spent all night charging and hasn't restarted itself since 6am. It still could... But hasn't yet.
Something else odd I noticed...
When I first installed ICS (without tweaks, messing, only on stock ROM) and came to install SwiftKeyX for Phone it refused, allowing me only to install the tablet version... This depressed me a little because the skin I use is nicer on the phone version than tablet. Oddly, this time, after the reinstall, the note would only install the phone version of SwiftKeyX, and not the tablet.
Not sure what changed and why, but I can only imagine that something was broke and is now fixed...
Time will tell. I think battery might be a little better now too. And I use JuiceDefender.
If I get a full 24 hours without reboots I might dare to try App2SD again and move some apps to card storage.
So far so good.
Arse. 19 hours later and the reformed Note spoiled itself with a random reboot during sleep.
Back to the drawing board.
So is this a hardware or software fault. Its so new that I could do with knowing... I can insist it be swapped. But am I going to get the same again? Has anyone been able to trap this erroneous reboot in logs or anything? Do we know what it is?
Are there just a few of us, or many? Former would suggest hardware, latter could be software.
I'm having this issue too. We need help here

Perhaps it would be good idea to go back to your area GB also (following drKetan guides).
I had the same anectodal thing happening with my new note just when i purchased it. After 1..2 days it went grazy. Then it blacked totally out. But just by chance it woke up after resting without battery for a day.
Personally, I think, the cache should be cleaned - BUT i definitely will not recommend a wipe cache in LPY (though it worked with me - but then again, it COULD NOT work with you - and the loss... what a loss it would be). (worked with me - that means it did not brick my phone when i upgraded few days ago and that did not have anything to do with my troubles when I purchased the note (few months ago)).
I'm discouraged that there are either so few people suffering this that we're simply 'on our own' with it, or so many people who have it but have learned to accept it.
It seems preposterous to not have attention to such a big fault.
And I realised that I've seen this before, and have the sneaky feeling that it is a dirty little secret of Android....
I bought an ASUS Transformer last June. It had this issue from day one on Honeycomb. Random reboots at unpredictable times, at least two per day. Over the last 9 months it went back to ASUS three times and each time they 'fixed' something totally unrelated to the problem before eventually telling me that they had no replacement units to give me and were authorising a full buy back - a refund.
I had anecdotal indications that it only occurred when I had an SD card installed. That was my growing suspicion, but I now no longer have a unit to test it.
Other Galaxy range users have been reporting random or looped reboots, and have pinned blame on using an sd card, especially in conjunction with App2SD.
I have an HTC Flyer with an SD card installed, running App2SD, and have no random reboot problems. Its as solid as a rock on stock Honeycomb.
Similarly, though, some users have reported that their Galaxy phone model has random reboots relating to having a sim card installed...
You see where this is going. Its getting to the place where we're accepting that the only way our expensive device works is if we disable key functionality and surrender our expectations of its advertised features doing the job they were intended to.
It is scandalous that this device should malfunction as a result of using the advertised features, and that no fix would be found nor explanation offered.
I now have an SD in the unit, but have not moved apps with App2SD. I have established that the reboots occur with all three of my SD cards of varying sizes, soit is not caused by a corrupt or faulty SD... If it is caused by an SD at all, it is 'all' SD's. Since so many users have the Note with SD's installed, and they run perfectly, I can't believe there is an issue with SD cards, although I did wonder if the manufacturers are now phasing out SD slots in their devices because 'cloud computing' is all the rage, or rather because this volatility caused by SD in the now unfixable evolving Android code means that they are minimising their embarrassment by simply dispensing with the faulty variable.
I have also begun setting static IP's for all my stored wlan's in case this is a DHCP issue caused during momentary wakes from sleep for polling or sync. If only we had an app that could store, like a seismograph, a persistent record of device events which trigger the reboot and then capture the reboot events also. Closest I've found uses ram to store the events log and then blanks the log on reboot starting from the reboot instead of maintaining the record prior to the reboot.
Getting close to wits end with this, and now deeply regretting my purchase.
Nothing like this on my Xperia Arc S.
Even an iPhone is better than this!

And is it likely that it is the DE ICS release that just doesn't like UK devices? Why would that be so?

I'll tell you exactly why.
I had an Xperia Arc S on ICS which I loved. I was tempted by the Note. I bought one expecting a Samsung flavored ICS experience, and got tossed back to GB. I basically had 7 days to return the Note or learn to like it, and during that period DE f/w was released and I had to know...
Note was rebooted using static ip's and is nowraring to go...

Still going... No reboots. And excellent battery performance to boot.

But if that was when your phone was still new why didn't you just return it for a replacement rather than root and flash a phone that wasn't stable in the first place? For all you know it may be a hardware issue and likely so as I've not heard any apart from you and the op mention it.
Anyway, your phone, your call what you do with it but it makes no sense to me to blame the manufacturer and model when you've not even followed basic steps to deal with an issue.

The first note I had in December 2011 rebooted at random. It was a hardware issue. It only started after owning it for 3 weeks, stock GB. Not roiled or modified in anyway. I had it replaced.

Basic steps i didn't follow? Enlighten me... I never mentioned that this happened when my phone was new. I said this started when i was still in GB. Notice the difference? If you can't help us figure out what's causing this just go troll on somebody else's thread.
