I just got the G2x less than a week ago. Mine is flawless. I'm running 2.2.2 as well. No leaks. No bleeds. No crashes. Very curious to read this thread.
That being said, I used to own a BlackBerry Tour. And in that forum, I read from virtually everyone that they had problems. Returned their phones 6 and 7 times. Me, not once. Never had an issue. Same with the Storm. Read about tons of issues. Me, not a problem, ever.
In fact, I have yet to own any phone that ever had a problem, and I've owned tons of phones. If there are problems, I'm sure it's within the realm of normal failure rates. It's simply that those with issues tend to announce them. Those with no issues tend not to say anything at all.
You bring up a great point... I to have had numerous Blackberry phones and 4 Android devices (the
G2x being the 5th) and I have never had the issues that seem to exist out on the forums. Of course, the forums represent only a small fraction of the users of any one device, and they tend to be highly sophisticated, more tech driven users that will complain about even the smallest issue. Issues that 99.999% of the users out there would never even notice. So when something even seems suspect the forums will explode with chatter about that specific "issue". And, complaints that CS of one carrier or the other dismissed their complaints and sent them packing. I also believe there is a lot of exageration and basically fake posts on the forums. For example, I remember one guy saying that he had returned something like 6 or 7 T-Mobile myTouch 4Gs for major operational issues. I spoke with a CS Rep at T-Mobile recently about making some changes to my Plan and I mentioned this ... he just laughed. First of all, they would never allow that many exchanges on one device. He did not specify what they would do other than to say, "we would simply not allow that to continue". By-the-way, that particular guy finally admitted that he didn't like the phone and was only sending them back to try to force T-Mobile to allow him to move to a G2.
So I think you have to take a lot of this with a grain of salt. Again, I will fully admit that I did have to exchange my first G2x at the T-Mobile store that I purchased it from. The software on the phone was faulty and it was doing crazy stuff. But it was a software issue... not a quality or hardware issue. My replacement, which as I stated above was manufactured on May 7th, is absolutely flawless. So yes, their may very well be a software issue with some of the G2x's that LG produced, but that doesn't constitute a "quality" issue.
My feeling is that T-Mobile and LG have pulled the phones off the shelves ... sent the phones back to LG for a re-install of a more updated and stable software package. That package may very well be Gingerbread, which we will all get in the near future. If T-Mobile and LG had knowledge of the phones truly being faulty from a hardward perspective I can't imagine they would not immediately put out a recall. Or, ask end users to take them back to the retail outlet they got them from for an inspection. After the Sony PS3 Network debacle I am sure these companies don't want that type of negative publicity. So without beating a dead horse, I have a gut feeling this is a software issue that can be handled with either a "patch" or move to Gingerbread.
