Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?


I tried installing several different Java packages but all of them failed with the same error. Finally, I arrived at a working solution by running the following commands:


sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ lucid partner"
sudo apt-get update


Now you can successfully install Java on your system!


sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jre-headless -y


1. Go to: http://www.lg.com/us/support/mc-support/mobile-phone-support.jsp
2. Click on the download link and run this Update ool
3. Connect your phone to your PC via USB
4. If Windows does not recognize your phone, click on the Install USB Driver button
5. Disconnect and re-connect your USB cable
6. Click on the Start Updating button

Note: LG has not released an OTA (Over The Air) update yet for this phone, so you must use the update tool

Note #2: Users have reported that this update will not work on Refurbished phones! Still awaiting official word from LG on this one

What about Gingerbread and an OTA fix for these issues?!

As of now, LG nor T-mobile have released Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) or OTA fixes for the G2x bugs. T-mobile has indicated that Gingerbread will be available “by summer” and LG says a fix is “coming soon.” Lets cross our fingers and hope they come through ASAP!

Update 6/3/2011: This is my first pass at this resource guide. I will be adding more links to this regularly, however I encourage users to suggest links to add to this list.

Update 6/19/2011: Thanks everyone for your comments and suggestions, I have incorporated them into the article. Still no word on LG and T-mobile on an update. Trying to be patient!

These days, cell phones are not cheap – they can cost upwards of $500. You need to protect your investment and one of the ways of doing this is by adding an invisible screen protector. This will prevent your screen from getting scratches whether you have it in your pocket or have keys rubbing up against it in your purse.

Screen protectors come in a variety of shapes, sizes, quality, and price. I have tried the $3 for a pack of 5 variety, as well ones that are up to $15 each! The best bang for your buck that I have used is by a company called Skinomi. They produce top-quality screen protectors that won’t peel off, are easy to clean, and come with a lifetime guarantee!

Skinomi screen protectors can range from $10-$15 which may seem a bit steep, but in the long run you end up coming out ahead since you won’t have to replace it every a few months.  Click here to check it out!

Update June 19, 2011:

The HTC Sensation screen protector is now available!

Zagg also offers some excellent choices in phone protection films and cases. I have not personally tried these, but they receive great reviews on other websites.
