What are the differences in rooting, roms, etc.? Can all directions be followed for the O2x to root the G2x and install custom ROMs?
The root should work fine, CWM needs to be updated, so don't use that

As said, rooting works as on the O2X. CWM Recovery shouldnt be flashed now, since the partition layout is different and Paul has to sort that out.
Installing O2X custom roms shouldnt work correctly since the G2X and O2X have different basebands. The custom rom has to support the used baseband by using the correct RIL. In time G2X custom roms will be released .

Im sure ive read somewhere that they are going to make the partition layout the same or something, so there wont be any need for seperate roms

They probably do need a seperate rom, because of the different baseband and most likely ril.

Cheers for correcting me! good point read that the roms need to support the baseband also! perhaps a rom could support multiple basebands?
I think O2x and g2x can share roms. The devs will just have to tweak a little to make it work on the other. Am i right or wrong?
Do you guys expect the vanilla Android rom from G2x to be released for the O2x as well?
Between G2X and O2X, which one have higher benchmark on stock rom??

If you would post benchmark results of O2X, I will post G2X results after I get it today or tomorrow (quadrant and linpack).
I get 2614 Quadrant score on completely stock rom
Please at the stock ROM, try to run second test immediately after first. I think you should take better results.

I got best at 2650 (some were slightly lower) with G2X.
Linpack really sucked - could not break 40 (had done better then that - into the upper 50's with MT4G - overclocked of course).
I got 2680 for my O2X on stock rom. Best record.

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?

This is good news! So the update will finally come to optimus x2. Is it possible to update the phone using ..say Paul's rom or do you have to revert the phone back to stock for update to work?

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.
What is really different between this two?
can optimus 2x use the gx2 rom? Thinking to get one. Any advise?

Different partition layout, different baseband.

Thanks a lot. But I don't really find any amazing custom rom for o2x. Maybe too early. Keep finger crossed.

what do you mean with amazing, iam using slicks n.31 rom and this rom is very very fast and stable enough for me, so its a great and amazing rom in my opinion

Yep, check the G2X sub-forum.

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?
Hi to all, well a friend of mine gave me a LG Optimus 2X with the Stock rom on it (10d). The phone is very slow at everything. While listening mp3 for example and try to read at the same time my tweets or my mails or trying to open the browser the phone becomes unresponsive for a while. The same goes while on browsing the market! The phone performs worst than any android phone i have ever had!
Any workround? Please help.
Thanks in advance

Agreed. The stock roms for the optimus 2x aren't that great. Try experimenting with rooting and different roms (I recommend topogogi's rom and kernel since those are the most stable at the moment). If you don't know how to do it then ask, there are a lot of people in this forum willing to help the people who are new to this kind of stuff

Don't think I am complaining because I'm not,I just want to bring back a little development for stock kernel to show us,stock kernel users that we are not forgotten.
With this thread I am asking someone of you developers to make really lightweight,smooth ROM.
I know you are busy with developing for nAa or some other kernel but I think that other stock kernel user,will agree with me.
Sorry for your time and thanks for reading this!
Please don't tell that there are already plenty of good ROM'S for stock kernel user because there are not...no offense....I a just saying that most of them are slow and laggy

Well, stock is ungrateful and painful in development. I don't like to re-stock 50 times, root 50 times, put recovery etc. and still don't know what's going on because logcat doesn't even start. So I wouldn't expect so many ROMs.

You are missing something very important mate, X8 come with eclair 2.1, if you are not satisfied with what devs give you then make sth better or don't complain, nobody cares if you feel limited.

Definitely worth a try. But the latest iterations of GingerDX work great. Probably even better when lots of apps are installed. Tho I didn't tried MiniCM6 with the A2SD script I'm using now.

I don't know what you mean by lightweight. GingerDX is pretty standard when it comes to the apps that come with it. Besides anything you don't like can just be uninstalled using Titanium Backup.

i have to agree. no offense to froyopro users, but froyobread seems to be smoother for me. faster too, imho. haven't tried minicm 1.0.X though.
