Get in touch with HTC, I'm sure they've bottled some for just this occasion.

That "new device" smell is simply a chemical cleaner that (almost) everything is washed in before boxing. It becomes quite overbearing so it is diluted so it will wear off quicker. I do not know how anyone would purchase the actual chemical wash though.

....Cyanogen?

Umm my wife's a mom and she's waiting with baited breath for hers to come. Having said that I get your points. They shoulda had a side by side I4 showdown.
Android needs something like the apple commercials the ones with the old guy in a suit vs young hip guy. Maybe compare the apple empire to a totalitarian dictator, non-I tunes media NEIN!
That commercial was so good until the mom thing... wtf? My mom held my phone and didn't know how to even make a call on it. She couldn't even open the keyboard.
My girlfriend doesn't even know how to open the keyboard right. Come on man...

I've had the FX network going in the back ground for the past few hours, the commercial has been on several times so far. I'm thinking the mom thing can be attributed to the holidays coming up.

lol maybe... sike i kid i kid. It's funny because there was a thread saying this phone needed more marketing and now we have this which basically says we're all stay at home mom's lol jk
I love the ad but the fact that they tag this a moms phone kinda sets it back compared to other phones from a marketing standpoint.. if your a guy around my age (22) and don't know anything about the G2 and see this commercial would u trade your iphone or evo for the G2.. I'm jus sayin!!

The G1 musta been the grandma phone, because see here, the G2 got the 24.99 data grandfathered in.

I may be retarded...

So, I just traded my G2 for a N1 :/
For those that have considered this here are my notes.
N1 Cons, that stick out after switching.
- feels slower.
- NO WIFI calling without hacking.
- NO keyboard
- LOT less space, could not install all the apps I had on the G2
N1 Pros.
- Slimmer, feels nicer in pocket.
- My battery is not eaten up by "Cell Standby", but rather the applications I use.
Umm yeah, I think I made a mistake

Agreed. Especially with the Nexus S just around the corner.
I have both phones and prefer the G2. I still love the screen on the Nexus, though!
I too have both phones, i use the G2 and my girl uses the N1. We will have to switch when Gingerbread hits.

Why would you do that without consulting us first?
Is there any chance you can trade back?
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
In a sense you did a good trade and in a sense you didn't. Nexus is still a great phone. Its just isn't up to par with the g2. Of course newer phones newer hardware. But you still have a amazing phone on your hands that's worth keeping. Its the official dev phone for a reason. So don't feel upset, it could be worse. You could have traded for a vibrant lol.
[G2/HTC Vision]
Also the N1 only has two touch imputs (and they are terrible). I moved from the N1 to the G2 so yeah I really think you should have stayed.
Straight up?
If so you got hosed. Although the N1 would barely qualify as a downgrade.

Exactly lol I traded my vibrant for this g2 straight up and I feel bad for the guy who traded with me lol. I loved my vibrant especially with a custom rom but this phone is so awesome. But hey atleast you'll get gingerbread first =)

How are vibrants bad? The screen is one of the best ones available. So is the gpu and the hummingbird. Plus its slim and lightweight. It has its downsides but so does the g2.

Yeah... the Vibrant seems like a nice phone. Then you look at the brand and think to yourself, uhh... never mind.
Plus I wouldn't be crazy about an iPhone look-alike.

Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
lol anyways... back to original topic, I hope op got lots of cash with that trade lol
i traded a vibrant for my g2 also...i got the vibrant back 3 days later after the guy bricked. i gave him my hd2 for it...a friend brought the vibrant back on odin....i'm happy and i'm looking to sell my nexus one asap
Who cares if the G2 isn't getting Gingerbread first? Since when has SW stopped a phone from being awesome, when it already has awesome SW? The fact of the matter is, 4 input touch screen lol. I love it, the N1 could never do that, and the capacitive buttons on the G2 are to die for. The OC capability on this phone are endless and Steve Klondik(Cyanogen) is working endlessly to make a Cyanogen build that is awesome for the G2. Gingerbread will come, but I'd much rather have it after ol' Cyan has added the icing to it.

I went directly from an N1 to a G2, last week. I have not found one thing that makes me regret my choice. The G2 just feels like the N1's natural successor.
Besides, Cyanogen himself has a G2 and will, I'm sure, be all over Gingerbread.

[Q] it might just be me but...

I LOVE MY G2.
no hinge problems. fastest phone i've ever owned. android 2.2. tethering. it's just an overall sexy device.
anyone else feel this way?
I totally agree, coming from a blackberry, I couldnt be happier that I made the switch
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
Im not crazy about the hinge design. Its a poor design... Ive used dozens of them and theyre all essentially the same. Compared to the G1 hinge its a downgrade. But I agree with everything else you said. Really enjoying my G2 and Froyo.

i've seen alot of people complaining about the hinge. saying its flimsy and poor made. but i've honestly had no problems with mine.
I seen a demo unit and the hinge wouldn't lock and it would freely open. the sales person picked up the phone and it fluttered about wildly.

Same Here. I miss ms n900. But a modded g2 is the better phone.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
i guess the hinge on the g2 is kinda hit and miss. either you get a good one or you dont.
and im sure the g2s UI is alot more easier to cope with than the n900
I like it. The added heft of the phone but only wish it was a bit thinner, its good still I love it. I put the black case on, and I think it looks much better in black, just like the G1.

The N900 was a great phone just poor surport which sucked on Nokia end. But having a phone that just works and it can be rooted is a +

Either its hit and miss or its the people that are reporting their hinge being perfect arent as picky and can tolerate a little wiggle

Not really. It's just some people don't mind it and others do. Nobody's hinge is as sturdy as a Droid or G1. It's not designed to be that way.
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using telepathy and unicorn dust!
Coming from a BB 9700, the phone is just great. The market kills BB's, this phone is way faster stock. Thought at first the move to the G2 was going to be a little overwhelming, and to think 3 weeks later I would gather the balls to permroot it and run a custom rom is fascinating. This device is the coolest thing I've got my little grubby paws on to date.

If you go to a local repair shop they ll fix it for around 50
I have a dead mt4g with a bad eemc (confirmed) that is out of warranty, due to my self repair of the digitizer twice. I've replaced the phone already.
The back cover is clean, the chrome is a little worn, and the LCD and digitizer are good. All buttons are good. The eemc died Monday after a mass cleanup on the phone and the phone won't turn on, and when on USB, asks for a QHSUSB_DLOAD.
I'm asking all in one, as I don't really want to rip the phone apart again. Email in my profile.

Manufacturing defect?

Just got my new G2 with a nice curly hair baked into the case. Would you be returning it?
Thats nasty...not only would I return it I would contact LG...thats worse than a hair in your food lol.

lmao that sucks, obviously exchange it.
Just get it returned, there's no need to contact LG directly like Force said though. I highly doubt someone intentionally put that hair there, accidents happen.
Sent from CAMACHO, my Verizon G2 (VS980) running PAC ROM.
That lookd more like lint than hair to me, but yes, if your with in the return time of your carrier bring it back.
have you checked if it's under the plastic protector that comes already applied to the edges ? maybe it's not baked into the case ..

The plastic strips have already been removed. It's like the hair has been sealed in during the finishing process.

If it belonged to say Park Min-young I'd say keep it and not only that, frame it. But unfortunately in this case I think it belongs to supreme leader's lesser known half-brother, Kim Jong-pube. Of course exchange the damn thing!!! Geeze.
