Can anyone recommend a good case/cover for the G2? Preferably at a store where I can use my eBucks.

I got the body glove. I dropped this thing plenty of times and no hastles. But it does make the phone look like a samsung of some other ugly piece of dirt because the case minimises the beauty of the small bezels.

So far, really liking Cloudy ROM and G3 debloater. Link for G3 debloater: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2792355
I did the 'full' debloat. Just looking for a replacement sms app besides Hangouts.
What are your favourite sms replacement apps?

I use Hangouts. Can't think why I'd want to use something else.
Can Hangouts sync/backup SMSes to the cloud? If/when it does that Ill definitely switch to it... I'm currently just using a sock SMS messaging app.

I'm using Textra now. It can't schedule (a bummer), but it is really nice in all other ways.
Use SMS Backup+. Then you can use any messaging app.

New version of Cloudy G3 will be out soonish apparently.
Also, if you want the latest stuff, check out http://gappsearly.com/
Found some awesome things on there.

I moved over to OptimusG3 2.0 - wait, no, just checked. CloudyG3 2.0, apparently.. Very nice, stable, no battery life issues. Based on the latest from both G2 and G3. That along with the Debloater makes for a very nice setup.

Apparently dev stopped on the Optimus G3 ROM as he had stolen code from Cloudy G3.
May be a good idea to not touch Optimus G3.

Stolen code? On an open source ROM? Wouldn't that imply kanging?

I'm not too sure.
I just checked now and it looks like his Optimus G3 thread on XDA has been reactivated, so I'm not sure what's going on there.
That's a shame. I always found Optimus to be more stable than Cluody.

I haven't tried Optimus but I haven't needed to as I really cannot fault Cloudy, haven't had any issues with stability on my end.

I see LG confirmed Android 5.0 will roll out first to G3 then to G2. I don't think it'll be too long before we start seeing 5.0 roms based on Nexus software over the next couple of months as well.

Yep, Lollipop source code has already been released, and the Nexus 5 images should be up pretty soon.

Would the Nexus 5 images work with the G2 or are there slight differences that could cause headaches?

A number of differences, despite the similar chipsets. Devs will need to port across between the devices, but I see the likes of Paranoid Android and CM getting this done.
