Really hoping for an clean and fast Android AOSP Gingerbread ROM for this phone. Such as Oxygen ROM for Desire. That would be great.

Patience, it will come. But it will probably take some time because we have to wait until we get a official gingerbread or a leaked gingerbread rom.

Why do the devs need for a AOSP a leaked Gingerbread before?
I thought the AOSP is compiled directly out of the source code?
we'll just need the drivers etc... cm might come soon
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
AOSP gingerbread only includes drivers for Google developer phones. LG 2x is obviously not one of them so you will need to find drivers that work on gingerbread first, drivers from froyo builds may or may not work and gingerbread drivers will only come after official gingerbread Rom is released.
I'm sure when the G2X gets vanilla gingerbread in may for t-mo us itll be ported over for you optimus 2x users

Thanks, forgot about that :-D
But i hope there will be a classic Gingerbread release soon on the phone.
This is the only thing i miss, except the hard-buttons (well, there is no alternative with either..)
Too bad the trademark that the P990 has gives us advantage on OEM drivers from the 2.3 rom package.
Doesn't anyone have some good contacts inside LG to push the drivers for 2.3 a developers way?
Interesting, that is where we vibrant folks are stuck at...gps drivers from Samsung !
this will suck when 2.4 comes out

Hi guys,
I was wondering - There are a lot of builds of the Android 2.3.3 for other devices. When do you think we will see a Gingerbread rom for the LG ? Could some devs look into the 2.3.3 and see if specific things like Camera, Wifi, bluetooth etc could be directly implemented? I know work like this is going on for other devices..
Hey,
the dev team behind cyanogen mod 7 is working on a port for the LG optimus 2X. CyanogenMod 7 is an modified Rom from AOSP Gingerbread 2.3.3. In the next few week you can be sure that you will get a Gingerbread Rom.
Today i have read that LG will release an update to 2.3.3 this april. 2 Weeks after OTA 2.3.3 you will se some amazing stuff on like custom roms on 2.3.3....
Only be in patience dude ;-)
sry for my bad english :-(

Hehe, thanx - But..
Look at my signature m8 - I have a HTC Desire with Android 2.3.3 on it and i know of the changes - I wont have Android 2.3.3 on my device, just for the version - I want a rom that works
On the HTC Desire i recommend you MIUI 1.4.1 and CyanogenMod RC4. Both are very stable and based on 2.3.3.
Any chance to see the miui Rom on our LG?

Some people just shouldnt be allowed to post in here, but hey, just ignore it.. I have been following the Android development since almost day one, and it seems that the devs on other roms/devices are a little more experienced in the coded stuff than the ones yet to play with the Optimus 2x(No offence to any1 i hope), but i would like to know what exact issues there are, related to modding the current 2.3.3 builds for the Optimus. If anyone knows ?

Yeah, I think drivers as well. Now that LG has released their p990 source as well it shouldn't be too long until the LG 2.2 drivers have been ported to 2.3... I hope.
Is anybody knows something about leak of android 2.3.4 for LG Optimus 2x ? In web is information that some people is testing new version of android for our device.
I can't believe nobody on this forum doesn't have it ;p

this piece of news says that this update will be out in 2 or tree weeks... i hope its true.
still 2.6.32.9 kernel according to the picture
so its the same bastardized bullsh** like the G2x ...
well done LG, like selling a Windows 7 themed Windows 95 ~.~
I aint so sure about that. That kernel should contain all the functions GB need. Correct me if I'm wrong
Sent from my LG-P990 using Tapatalk
As long as you stay with the stock rom, it doesn't make any difference at all I think. If you want to create/hack something else it would have been better with a newer kernel version. Nvidia cleaned up and standardized lots of stuff in their 2.6.36 version so it would have made it a lot easier to modify for proper usb/bluetooth/etc support.

Arcee called the G2x Gingerbread bastardized, because it is simply Gingerbread hacked around Froyo drivers and user space. It may run and look like Gingerbread, but lots of benefits which should be introduced with gingerbread will be left out.
Like I said, Its like running Windows 7 with hacked XP drivers.

agree with you, you'll miss a lot like better battery management, more i/o scheduler, maybe new cpu governor except performance/powersave, something like that will be offering with new kernel... offcourse LG can patch this feature to existing feature, i think that will more not cost effective because there maybe some pre requisite that need to be match..
will cyanogenmod and miui profit from the upcoming release?

any news on c version for cm7?
2.3.7 was out on September 20 -- why nothing about it here? Anyone tried it already?
P.S. I am not happy with my 2.3.4, XXJVP at all. It hangs, com.adroid.phone keeps crashing, phone is not much responsive and it all gets only worse and worse over the time. Now I am thinking, should I look towards 2.3.7 or should I wait until 4.0 comes? However, I guess 4.0 will come to I9000 with a significant delay, right?
Why not try 2.3.5?

I don't build any illusions regarding Samsung's official releases. They are rather out of scope until Summer 2012 ;-) No joke, SAMSUNG sux big big big time on rolling out updates.
My concern are ROMs that are created by community heros. When'd you expect such?

I agree to some of your point but telling that samsung sucks in update is incorrect.Galaxy S has got updates more frequenty than any other android phone.We already have 2.3.5 leaked stock firmware and in comming days u will some 2.3.6 updates as well.Comming to other brands,take example of htc,they are still on 2.3.4.Motorola donot give more than 1 update to phones and forget about LG(they think that customers must be deprived of updated,so that they can ultimatly sell thier mobile industry)

I think we will have to use CM7 to get a taste of 2.3.7...
OK, and what are your bets about availability date for ICS on I9000 ?
(unofficially of course, there is no much sense to discuss official one)
UPDATE: OK, I'll try CM7 with its 2.3.7 and that's it. It will probably heal my SGS for next months ...or will brick it
After being hesitant for a while ( losing the whole samsung apps/feel ) ive finally made the jump to CM7. I must say its really stable and smooth, its packed with lots of options and tweaks .. so far im simply loving it. I think my search for the best custom ROM is done .
Btw, Cyanogen mod 7.1 is out for the i9000, which is considered as the first "stable" version to run on the i9000.
Also, im pretty sure cyanogen will get us ICS way before Samsung does.
I cannot really bet but after Nexus s recived ICS then it will hardly take 15-30 days for devlopers to port ICS to galaxy s because both nexus s and galaxy s is running same hardware except camera chip.

Well from what I understand, manufacturers are not required to release android updates to devices which are older than 18months. Anyone know the exact launch date of the sgs? So I guess it depends what the age of the sgs is by the time ICS is released. Even if we don't get the official ICS, I'm not so sure whether we will get it through cyanogen due to the sgs ram limitation. From 2.1 to 2.3 the average amount of free ram on the sgs has come down quite a lot, to a point where through average use you can end up in a situation with only 30mb free ram (depending on your rom and kernel and what apps and Widgets you use) after a days use. ICS will obviously have even higher memory demands than gingerbread, so the ICS experience on a sgs if it is provided unnofically by cyangoen may not be very smooth and user friendly.
That's just my opinion though, I'm no expert! And obviously I'd love for us to get ICS on the sgs

The most stable version I experienced till now is XXJPY. I'm using it for more than 2 months with no problem.
I guess the only way I'll ever use the new version will be through a ROM, probably same for many other people in here.

Just wait a little more (maybe 2-3 months) before getting a "stable" ICS rom ported by our amazing devs! The development progress of the rom is super quick! Yesterday it was just released and now it's already at alpha 4! At this rate ICS will be for very soon, definitely sooner than LG's ICS lol.

The positive thing is that LG is almost running out of letters for their V20 GB releases, now only u v w x y z. Almost V30....ICS? (froyo was V10x)

For ICS i have the feeling that lg may copy from CM and use v40 instead of v30 (it's only my opinion)...
Returning on topic, some people suggested (Hope dies last) that may be the a preparation for the big ics jump... But i'm very skeptical about it...
(i know that my english is sh*t)
I think ICS for o2x is still far coz they would not still work on GB (v20t?) if they were to release ICS soon
still they are releasing gb 2.3.4 at least they should have to update their version from 2.3,4 to 2.3.7

Hm, why should they have done it? Only to have the latest 2.3 Android version, or is there a solid reason why you're asking that?
2.3.3 brought us dual core improvements, 2.3.4 the improved Gtalk (voice + video calling).
2.3.5 to 2.3.7 are mainly updates/bugfixes for the Nexus S (and AOSP apps like camera). There's no real need in adapting these - and as there's always the possibility to break other things by a version bump I can understand the decision to stay on 2.3.4.

No they have to make GB perfect which almost is before going to ICS otherwise ppl will complain neither stable gb they've to use nor stable ICS, as early ICS build are supposed to have bugs
And after making gb perfect they will merge their latest gb changes directly to ics so less work for them

If LG wants to perfect GB for releasing an update to ICS, we can wait an extremely long time...sometime around 2250...
They also can start this way v21a,v21b...
