I just thought I'd mention this even though its a little off topic, but I love my Touch now with 2.2 on it. It does absolutely everything I ever wanted a phone to do, the app market is full of awesome and useful apps, super stable, and my god, the battery life is out of this world. I only wish it had a glass capacitive screen to be a little more scratch resistant and finger friendly. I'd never get rid of it when my contract is up next March if it had that.
I wanted to give a shout out to all the devs and dedicated testers to put the Vogue back on the cutting edge.
Which Release are you running? is DZO or Incubus?

Incubus RLS9. But not for any good reason really. It was just the last 2.2 I installed and called it perfect at that point. I've probably flashed my phone 30 times so I needed to find something that worked and stick with it before I wore out the NAND.
I'm considering buying a cheap used Touch to try this out instead of the phone I am using now on Sprint. How well does Android work on the Touch? Are there any downsides or things that don't work? What's the battery life like?
Thanks!

You should try it.
Everything works except for camcorder. Battery lasts a full day easily.
What's your current phone?
believe it or not I am running 2.1 because it allows me to send mms on sprint. RLS3 allowed me to but something changed in the other builds and I cant mms anymore.

Just keep in mind the screen is small and text input without the stylus can be annoying in portrait mode sometimes. But other than that, ace has it right. Everything works cept camcorder though I never used that myself so I don't care.

yea Incubus posted an RIL that had the old APNs settings so it didnt disappear i was able to send mms with it like that. if i get a chance i will upload it if not i know there was a thread about it a little while back
I'm running the themed release10 with the new NBH file and I LOVE it. Other than the GPS (verizon issue...) it's perfect. I am very grateful that people are spending the time to make this phone so much better!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dude don't give up. The gps on vzw is fixable. Have you tried the fix listed in the faq thread. Worked for me. Sry for the punctuation my touch pro kbd isn't working all the way in xdandroid.

I am currently using a Palm Treo 755p so I am completely new to this. In terms of functionality, what is the difference between running it from the SD card and doing the NAND method. The SD install seemed pretty straightforward and the NAND version seemed more complicated. I am pretty tech savvy but have never installed a new OS on a mobile phone before. Can anyone provide a link to a simple straightforward instructions for installing via NAND? Also, which release should I be installing? I see people talking about more than one.
Thanks so much for your help!
Awesome. I'm getting a used touch [$50 ftw] for Froyo on it. Thanks a lot to everyone who posted.
Just a small thing, does SMS work as it should? I'm pretty much intending to make the Touch my No.1 phone, and SMS is a major factor. So, all apps work, including Wi-Fi? Impossible.
The touch does not have wifi capabilities , but SMS works great!

Yeah, I've been testing Vogue roms for quite some time now. 2.2 is easily the best on the vogue. The improvements made to the OS made the whole thing faster and more efficient. Battery life is through the roof comparatively as is speed.

HTC Touch/Vogue > gsmarena.com/htc_touch-1999.php
Today Klutsh released psfServiceMod, which allows you to use an android device to downgrade a ps3. It currently supports most popular android phones.... now including the Droid Inc!
The latest release, 3.2, has everything fixed! I've had it for about a day now and all is good, backups and restores are no longer broken and psfreedom works, grab it here: http://www.klutsh.com/download/86/[...card: [url]http://www.klutsh.com/download/25/
Things to keep in mind:
There is a possibility that you will lose the ability to play Blu ray movies if you downgrade, i personally didn't, and i did it twice. I have a launch model 60GB for homebrew.
If your on 3.41 and want an alternate method of jailbreaking, you might consider Adrynaline's psfreedom kernel.
If you want to use the kernel make sure you have the right one, there is a sense and cm6 version. When your phone turns on, you need to open terminal emulator and enter:
su
insmod /system/lib/modules/psfreedom.ko
This method supports peek and poke and can be run with the phone on, however, it will disable usb mass storage, and wifi. To fix this, just flash back to another kernel like incrediblek's or ziggys. This code will need to be entered again if your phone reboots.
me too, would love to see this!
Yes a inc port will be awesome.

I tried with klutsh (who is a great guy btw) for over 40 recoveries and many custom kernels, he just cannot get it to work on the incredible. Done deal.
Get yourself a dedicated device. I got a used 1st gen ipod nano from craigslist for 10 dollars and it works flawlessly, all payloads and downgrades.

He tried 1 test build of the old psfmod. He rewrote the entire thing for this version. I really dont see the problem considering it has almost the exact hardware as the evo and both run clockwork. Am i missing something?
but, a 3.50 Jailbreak would be nice lol.
Im trying to get a service mod going, but i cant compile psfreedom.ko and if i do i get exec_format_error trying to run it. Im running a modded psfreedom kernel btw. Anyone think they can properly compile it? Or is it unlikely to work?
Is this different than Adrynalyne's psfreedom kernel? I'm just curious really, I never plan on owning a ps3.

Wow!
All I have to say is whow, hold up your going to fast for me!
This is by far the fastest rom I have used on the Vibrant thus far. The response is just insane. Only had it 30 minutes or so so I can't say the battery life will be great.
The radio on this is insane, gps lock in like 10 seconds and within a minute on the tester was a 6m accuracy in a car doing well past the speed limit, I wasn't driving . The speed of the web browser is the fastest experience as well on the Vibrant.
I will say I tried going to Trigger twice but it wouldn't show the launcher at all, I couldn't get it fixed and in a moment of desperation tried this and I think it was fate.
Well done and many thanks!
PS: The Einherjar Dev Team is lucky to have you and if this is the product you can put out, man this dev team is the new hotness. I was already in love with Pepperkake and haven't found a rom till this one that I liked as much.

Hey, I've been using this rom since last night and so far everything is running smooth and stable.
I did not ask him what the deal was, to be honest a bad odin flash might be what did it. However I re odined and reflashed and it did the same thing. I was at work and it was coming up shift end time so I was just trying to get something working for the ride home, plus was waiting for a call from the wife.
My only request is an accurate battery mod with some wicked graphic like the circle that changes colors.
For now and the past 3 roms I've had I just used a widget out of the market so no big deal. Debating whether I want the wifi calling, before at my house I didn't get the best reception, call from wife once i got home was steller quality and no breakup so I think in all honesty the radio may have done the trick and may not require the wifi calling afterall. Plus I'm worried what it might do to this screeching performance.

You're absolutely right about the radio. I found the early versions of the Wifi calling app to be a resource hog, which is why I remove it from this build, and have always removed it from my personal builds. As far as the accurate batery mod, I'm sure that cooking up somewhere. I'm planning on taking some time this weekend to jump into framework modification and theming, so I can start bringing these things to the builds myself. Until then, we have to wait on our wonderful community here to provide us with the mods when new versions drop.

and the swype is just a suggestion, most people use other keyboards too im guessing.
Hi,
I'm seriously considering going out and buying this phone but I'm really not sure after seeing all the threads with people saying that they go back to their phone and it's switched off and requires a battery pull.
This seems to be a fairly serious problem but I was just wondering if it is happening to everyone who owns the O2x?
Please let me know if you are unaffected by the problem!

So, how do you get on Rusty, you seem like a very experienced XDA member.. how is the O2X treating you?
i am not the best guy to talk to . i just got the phone used yesterday for very cheap. i figured that if i dont like it, i can sell it for the same money or even make a little more and get the SGS2.
but so far. no crashes/reboots.. been more than 24 hours. using custom rom as well.
i got the phone for 300$. the stickers still on it. i figure if i decide to sell it. i wont lose at all..
so far. i am really loving the phone. i love the UI of LG. but its slow. it laggs. i wonder if there is a custom rom with the LG UI but smooth one.
right now i am on modaco. with 3000 quadrant. if i switch to google launcher. phone is smooth. if i switch to LG one, it laggs a little in the home screen. i tried the Tmobile version 2.3 on my optimus. its super smooth. but i cant make phone calls on it lol.
and i had a screen problem with the cayanogen rom. for some reason my screens dims and go bright on its own.
oh yeah. i also have a screen light leak/bleed. but it doesnt bother me much because the only way i can notice it if the room is dark and i have a black wallpaper.
Mine went slow once on stock, once isn't bad though. The froyo Rom does seem rushed in truth, (I have random battery drains from my Dialer which makes no sense) but I'm sure Gingerbread will have everything sorted.

Pretty well to be honest. I use CM7 nighties (I bought the phone specifically because it was going to be supported by them) so I cannot expect a bug free experience at this early stage.
I am enjoying it though, I came from a Nexus One that had bugger all internal storage and a poor digitizer, so proper multi-touch and 1.5GB spare for apps is fantastic.
The IPS screen is great if you can overlook the associated backlight bleed (it's not just the 2X, look at iOS devices as well, same thing), the GPS chip is excellent, I can get locks in place that my N1 couldn't.
The stock ROM is turd, frankly. It's fast, until you install something, then it becomes unusable for a bit until it's finished with the app... quality coding
fine
i have my lg optimus 2x now for over a month, no problems here.
i stil have the stock rom.
first v10a. no problem
later v10b. no problem
I have had 2 O2x now for litle over a month
one of them has had BSOD and restarts randomly - the other had none, atleast for the first month - but these past days this one has now also rebooted a couple of times.
Both are completely stock - not rooted and not using any custom roms.
Only using a different launcher which do help make the BSOD and Reboots less often.

I been over there as well. Most of the problems on the SGS 2 are either software or can be solved with apps. My O2X had so many problems that I could never use the phone and wifi at the same time. Bleeding, constant reboots/freezes crashes even with Custom ROMs. Since Im in afghanistan now I need a phone that will work not just when it feels like it. I will say that when the O2X was working it was a sweet phone. I just dont see the same problems with the SGS2 and Samsung tends to be better in the service side instead of LG leaving us pissing in the wind waiting for a "possible update" that might fix things or not.
guess i´m a lucky guy, too!
i have no crashes/reboots and absolutely NO backlight bleeding
Mine is also working properly.

I've always been of the mind that people are more likely to post to complain than otherwise. You rarely see, "hey, this is great!" .. I think it is often assumed that posting those kinds of comments add nothing to the discussion, so people don't do it...
Respond if you agree

Agreed. I see what you did there.
If it turns out to be true and even if they they just push it to those who oped in for soak test and whatnot and not a full out release in the next few weeks i am happy with Lenovo and this phone. I love what Lenovo did with the phone. I said updates will make or break it and i was scared about that when they said they could not commit to the security patches. But were getting those patches and have a word on the update so far so good. Hope they keep it up. This is the best phone out all around.
I'll still believe it when I see it. Moto has really been sucking badly on updates the last few years.

But the last few months they've been excelling!
All I know, as a Samsung fanboy in the past... I couldn't be happier that I chose to change to the Z Force... besides not bursting into flames in my pocket... the battery life puts EVERY Samsung I ever had to shame.

I agree 100% the funny part is I decided I needed a non samsung device as soon as I saw that lil wayne commercial that had him dumping champagne on the phone. I told coworkers that wanted the Note 7 prior to the release to get this phone instead because Samsung spent far too much for lil wayne for proper research and development, they all made fun of me...until the note started exploding.

Off topic but the issue is simple with the Note 7. I checked this my self. But its not cheap for them and the "Fixed" ones were not fixed and there was no way for them to fix it.
Simple version. The IC samsung chosen to handle the monitoring of the voltage for the battery was the cheapest they could find. That being said they can be way off in terms of calibration. The note 7 i had charged my battery to 4.9v. Phone would read 4.405v but a fluke on the batt reads 4.921v. And that is dangerous. So for all i know they could be charging to 5+ volts and no wounder they are bursting into flames. Issue has nothing to do with the battery and changing it wont do a thing. Its an issue with the ic on the board. And the IC has been used in other things that handle li-ion and li-po related charging and also caused problems on them.
Back on topic.
So we get 7.0 before the end of the year. Im guessing November. So far so good on the updates. But im wondering if they are going 7.0 or just going to jump to 7.1. Chances are no 7.1 that fast but so far the updates have been good. And the moto mod updates have been amazing. I would like to see 7.0 by Nov. 17th. But we prob wont see the roll out start until the end of Nov.
Does anyone know if Nougat will return the ability to save to SD or move apps to external sd?

It will not. Motorola has removed the Apps 2 SD feature. It was replaced by Adoptable Storage.

Just finished installing the Nougat update on my phone. After updating I tested it out in a Daydream VR and it works!
I wish someone would post the update files
Uuuurgh I wish there was a way to force it. I've been obsessively checking for software updates all day :|

Yes yes yes yes yes. Got rid of my Gear VR and S7 Edge for a PSVR and have been waiting for a good headset for my Z Droid. So it works with the remote and what not?

Yup, works exactly like it does on the Pixel. It runs the Daydream app, supports the VR keyboard, etc.

Did you sign up for soak test?

Not that I'm aware of. I've done plenty of soak tests for previous Moto devices and I got invites for soak tests for the camera and projector (which I don't have either), but I never got one for the phone. The update just popped up for me last night.
So far the only Nougat issues I'm having is the fact that my Ambient Moto Display no longer works. Slightly annoying, but it could be worse.

Great that means it's a general release!
Do a hard reset, it's always recommended to do a hard reset after a major update for optimal performance and user experience.
Strike my last statement. I just got it working. I need up just clearing the data for the Moto app and set it up again. Moto Display seems to work perfectly fine now.
