GB avalible for G2x - LG Optimus 2x

Just saw on the g2x forum that official gingerbread is avalible for it. That hopefully means we shouldn't be that long after. Or, is it T-mobile that's making that firmware? Anyhow, it shouldn't be that hard to make it work on our phone. Atleast till LG releases theres.
Anyway, what's your thoughts? Should someone try to fix this for our device? Should be relativity easy. And if it is tmo that's making the FW, then I guess mkv support and such is gone. Pauls Gr1 is probably better in every way except maybe stability, which should interest someone atleast.

Looks gash to me, Gingerbread userspace atop Froyo kernel.

Just read Paul O'brien's tweet: "v21e rolling to the G2X... better late than never eh?"
Hopefully the update voor de 2X will follow soon.

Fingers crossed

Ive been using the GR1 from modaco site and it damn smooth, cant wait till other devs get there hands on it to tweak and kernel it, it will be MEGA

Some Italian site had the news of gb release in UK, anyone can confirm?

Don't worry optimus brothers and sisters... You aren't missing out on much! Its not an official update, by that I mean its not complete or supported by T-Mobile USA. As stated it still has a froyo kernel and the only thing that changed for me was faster GPS lock and faster boot time, otherwise cm7 is still the way to go. Also comes with stupid asop camera and only 2.3.3
I'm tired of LG!

Just wondering if this had anything to do with the class action lawsuits.
Anyone in the UK think we can return the handset under the sale of goods act as it said Upgradable to GB on the box but is still not upgradable?

cyanogen support

with cyanogen mod chosing the tmobile version of this phone, does that mean that the lg one, will get cyanogenmod support aswell ?
i am asking since i live in a country where the lg one is the only choise i got.
I think it will be relatively easy to port from the G2x to O2X and vice versa

What I wonder about is, that the G2x is featured with "4G-Support". When I look at the 2X I cant read anything about 4G... So maybe there isnt the same hardware in both phones?

it is the same

I think the phone themselves have the same hardware specs but supposedly the partitions are different (ext3 vs ext4).
Also flashing an O2X rom on a G2x results in no phone support (from my understanding).
Best answer is ask @cyanogenforum but im pretty sure they will port it to o2x aswell

isn't the current porting being done on the 2x?? As @CM_acree started it at the beginning of April.

[Q] Bored with the Captivate?

Was just wondering if anyone else was bored with their Captivate.
The next "big" thing will be when Samsung/AT&T decide to give us our last update for this phone. Then what?
I stopped depending on AT&T after the whole froyo fiasco. I've been a flash-aholic ever since and can't see myself ever going back.
Once Samsung releases the source code for GB, custom roms will only be even better.
Thx devs!

If you haven't ever flashed a custom rom then I can see how boredom could set in. I have been a flashoholic since the first month I got the phone. Tried out fixed 2.1 roms, then all the original 2.2 roms, then CM7 on one phone and 2.3.4/2.3.4 roms on my second cappy. The ONLY WAY any phone will be better is the SGS2 when it comes out. While at a ATT store I tested my cappy running g CM7 OC/uv'd to 1400Mhz against the newest Motorola and my phone was just a Tad faster out of three speedtest and CPU test I performed. I showed it to the att workers and they were surprised how good mine works compared to the Motorola that has dual core cpu's. So I WONT BE giving up on my Cappy until SGS2 comes out and then it will be my backup fo sho. Secondly if you become a flashoholic it is like having a NEW and improved phone almost every day. Thanks to CM7 and Apex

Don't get me wrong, I've flashed more than my share of roms. Maybe it's time to try my hand at themeing.

Thrill issues

I just got a replacement thrill still have issues with the phone I was wondering if someone can help me find a link to when this phone will get 2.3 gingerbread
Sent from my LG-P925 using XDA App
It hasn't been announced and nobody knows for sure. Last date I read was Dec. 9th which came and went.
At&t promised GB to all 2011 phones by the end of the year, but when have they been known to be truthful?

well you can just use the GB KDZ file and it would work.
If I have a replacement phone and the problems continue what will at&t do

I totally see what you mean.
The title threw me off.
There's a V20B_00.kdz available now.
If' it's rootable and runs on AT&T frequencies, I'm using it as a base. Screw V20C. xD
WOAH! V20B_00.kdz seems to be PURE LG.
No bloatware or anything.
Not rootable yet though.
I'm going head on into this. The most LEGIT Lg rom yet.
Rootable or not. Gb without the bloatware sounds awesome

Don't worry. A ROM is in the works. Gingerbread of course.
I figured I have been watching. i played with it last week but got no where. I have to say I like that LG better then my Galaxy for some things for sure. The keyboard is way better then my S II
And why can we not use the Roger's baseband? Different radio or frequencies or what? I'm just a layman on this, but at first thought, I'd expect that it might work. Just wanting to know, to learn.

Yea link please. I'm still having baseband issues and want to reupgrade anyway.
Is the baseband a set of files like in the system folder. I'm think with a bit of tweaking they should run on 21A.
The issue I have is that the signal keeps dropping of on the 21A rom but it is fine on the 20A.

Cyanogenmod on LG Thrill - a learning process

Background: I'm a programmer by trade, but completely new to Android. I've had my AT&T Thrill 4g for a few months now, and am just getting into this scene, so please forgive noob mistakes. I'm posting this both to fill my "10 posts before you can do anything useful on XDA" quota, and in case others find this useful. I also hope you will correct me or make any suggestions you think of.
My Phone: I have an LG Thrill 4g p925 on AT&T in the United States. I currently have baseband v21e from the O3D forums in order to have the latest Gingerbread. My understanding is that the hardware of the two phone's is identical, and that the software is pretty much interchangeable. I can downgrade to US-based Froyo or the v20p GB radio easily enough if need be.
The Goal: I love Cyanogenmod, and hope to get it running smoothly with no wifi issues. My favorite CM7-based rom is currently pandaball's, available both for the O3D (p920) and Thrill (p925).
The Problem: Installing the p925 build of CM7 Release Client 3 (RC3) cannot recognize my v21e (GB) baseband. Therefore, I can't get mobile data or even edit my APNs.
My understanding from this post is that the problem is due to the fact that the p925 CM7 builds were designed to work with the Froyo radios.
Possible Solution? I am going to try installing the p920 version and see if that helps. See this post.
Other Issues:[B/] Wifi has been terrible for me on older builds that worked for some reason or another, but that was before I knew much about basebands.
I'll post updates or edit this post as I figure things out ...
Welcome man!! I love the 20p baseband. No issues with it.
But we have a few major issues with cm7.
One that makes me swith back to stock based is in call echo.
