O2X for now.
Samsung phones have advantage as they release some source codes.
The best is to check cyanogen's website, if there is a cyanogen the phone is usually well supported by devs.

We have cyanogen for arc its just complications thats all
If I get LG o2x all I need to do is root then cmw then put a Rom on is it that easy or have u got to open bootloader or any thing

I thought xperia arc's cyanogen was ported by someone else?
Locked bootloader is a bad idea for a flasholic
For Optimus Black, it is still fairly new; but the bootloader isn't locked so it shouldn't have major issues.
Arc -> Black looks like a major downgrade to me

STAY AWAY FROM LG !!
If you are flashaholic, HTC is the way. Or Samsung. Or anything else...
DO NOT BUY LG!

Why not? I think that if you do want to flash different ROM's, then LG O2X is a great phone. It's the stock rom that's causing trouble.

i recommend you to try the lg optimus 2x. is by two time much powerful and open to the development then lg Black.

Is LG really that bad I like HTC alot coming from dhd but just fancy a change

Just go and try it, my LG is the best phone i ever had (O2X)..
Ive had an LG Renoir too, that was my 2nd best i think..

Compared to Black it is "newer", if you think about the hardware. If you are thinking of release-date, Black is newer - but not on the inside.

Yea I was thinking more the hardware side of Things

LG Optimus 4x HD

Hello everyone
I just bought a LG 4X HD and therefore I want to ask if you know if there is going to be a forum for this phone.
I hope it's okay to ask such a question in this forum

I also have the 4x HD since a week now and i`m totally happy with it. It`s really fast and smooth. No reboots or other failures til now. And i already gained one update last week from v10a to v10b. Maybe they`ve learned to update regularly. Well, we`ll see it in the future.
I think it will take some time until there is a real fanbase and some devs.

Buying a 4x after a 2x can only be called naive.

Buy me 4x and i will start development kidding never mind. Soon you will have dev section. Contact mod to open a 4x section

Hey, can you install apps on the micro sd card or transfer app data onto the external sd? I heard the SGS3 can't.

Thanks for all the answers ! I appreciate it.
I am very satisfied with the phone, because of the nice interface and especially the big HD screen
I know that some of you think it is stupid to buy a LG phone after the LG Optimus 2x, but I actually had a 2x before which had a lot of bugs. I was lucky to get my money back which resulted in buying a Lumia 800. But the Windows Phone was to boring and I missed Androids many functions. The reason for I bought a LG again was because I liked the 2x, and when I saw the 4x for the first time I wanted it. The 4x is in fact also about 200 dollars cheaper than the Galaxy s3 and the One X, here in Denmark.
I know that the phone is only available in about 11 countries right now.

Unfortunately I don't know because I haven't bought a microSD for this phone because it comes with 12.5 GB built in and that's enough for me for now

So how is the browser and the battery life on the 4X?
And also how good is the screen?
I'm looking forward to buying one but i'm not really sure if i should..

The browser is nice and very fast, actually almost faster than my pc, but it is not perfect.
I think the battery is about average, I can use it for about 6 hours with very heavy usage as browsing, video and so on. I bought it three days ago, so I haven't tried the battery on a normal day but I think that it can last for at least a day.
The screen is outstanding, I love it and it was the main reason for buying this phone. The price is also good for a such a nice phone
I have noticed that it sometimes uses a lot of ram even though I don't use many apps at the same time, but after a while it gets normal again. It has resulted in some lag one time, but I made a factory reset and haven't noticed it anymore and it works like a charm now
So I think you should buy it because it is an incredible phone with a very good price, but you must have in mind that it is a LG and therefore be prepared for the worst.
But I am very satisfied with it and will never change it for a s3, one x or another high end smartphone.

The screen on this phone is much better than the 2x's screen ,it is in fact better than the Samsung Galaxy S3, well that is what the reviewers say and I totally agree
The screen is perfect for reading, browsing and watching video on. The screen is sharp and colourful.

I can't compare it with a IPhone because I have never owned one.
The loudspeaker can get very load but unfortunately the sound clarity looses quality when it is on full.
But I think the sound quality is perfect when it is connected with headphones and you can actually press at a bottom with is named Dolby Mobile that makes the sound clearer and it is actually like the option "surround" on the LG2X. But this function is only available when connected with headphones.
I can compare the sound quality with a Lumia 800, and say that the sound quality on this phone is a level or two better

Ah ok. Well I bought mine for around 250 Euro what I roughly would say is 300 us dollars
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app

An O4X for $300 is still a pretty good deal.

Yes don't let people fool u. The 4x is really equal to a s3 and better then a hox specially battery life. It is our luck that lg kinda ruined their name because u get a device 200 dollars less then the s3 and the hox. But i think the price might gonna skyrocket for future handsets since lg now made the nexus 4 that gives them reputation.

Not if they continue to lock the bootloader and not provide a tool to unlock it.

I agree problem is that MOST PEOPLE don't know anything about bootloader and all that jazz. They are happy if the Smartphone just works. And the 4x HD basically works fine right out of the box unlike the 2X. So i guess even though it borders you and me MOST PEOPLE won't even know and care.

Lg 4X HD and Vu p895

Hello folks. I have been comparing the two devices and they seem to be pretty much identical hardware and software wise. The only difference being the screen resolution and format. They run on the same SoC , same camera modules , I imagine same modem too. Any development done for the 4x should be pretty easy to port over to the p895 , similar to what happened with the xperia X10mini and X8 ( The only difference between the two was the screen resolution. The two phones shared a subforum , resources and dev's). Hopefully this thread grabs the attention of others interested in the p895 and reveals a possible cooperation between users of both devices. I will look more into this after I get my phone back from service.

P895 have 4G LTE
Sorry about my bad English
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium

No they don't. I have one. It is the same device as the 4X. That is probably the Verizon version or some Korean only model. The international one uses the Tegra 3 SoC and has no 4G.

The xperia x8 was my phone before this. Damm life was easy back then(atleast when it comes to the bootloader)

yep, but we've had oc, uv,ext3/4-support,dualtouch, cwm, custom roms even with locked bootloaders
so why not here too? we 'just' need a skilled dev to work on it

We have a "skilled" dev to work on it. BUT, it would not harm if we had 50 skilled devs or even some help from LG to work on it. I mean, the 4X was never sold in massive quantities like the s3
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app

Both the Vu p895 and 4X didn't sell as much as other phones. Maybe it would be for the best to officially add the Vu p895 to the current subforum , more attention can't possibly hurt.

Sent from my LG Optimus G , the best phone for me。

Battery really depends on what you do on your phone. A good Rom with a good Kernel can improve the battery life by a lot. I have PA and Franco, the battery is good enough for me.

I've got about 12 hrs of battery life and 3.5 hrs of SOT with 3G (no wifi). My phone is rooted with franco kernel used. Previously, on stock, my SOT has never reached that stat. I've got emails synced but gps off during the time.
Btw, there's a good thread for you to read for more info about Nexus 4 battery life at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1992627
