http://pocketnow.com/android/lg-g2x-gingerbread-update-available-now
funny, once they got a class action lawsuit up their asses they suddenly now have the update ready

This is what i've been told from LG after emailing them regarding the matters of 2.3 update.
Refer to your inquiry, the Android 2.3 OS firmware is on the progress testing and debugging for P970. It is targeted will be available at the beginning of October or early for update*. I wish to thank for your email inquiry.

Maybe we should give them a lawsuit too. It has been confirmed for September-Late September-Early October.
I'm glad to hear it is being tested now, it should be a good sign.

Agreed....i hope after 2.3 update, the phone will have a higher results in quadrant....expected to see some performance though...LOL

Dude, Quadrant is just wrong... it doesn't show the true potential of the phone, I get 2600 on Quadrant with my Optimus Black.

october looks pretty late.
i`d appreciate cyanogenmod rather.

yeah pretty late... unlike HTC have completed the upgrades to gingerbread for all their supported phones.
i dunno if we get an ice cream after ginger...

Android 2.2

Are there any plans to bring Android 2.2 to X1?
As said by google, it brings significant speed improvements which would be great as X1 have slower hardware than most android phones out there.

said 2.2 available only with ARM11, cortex A8/A9, Tegra of Atom... not available for Qualcomm ... =(
I thought are processor is equivalent to a ARM11? Edit also how can it not support Qualcomm when the latest Android phones are running a Snap Dragon Processor made by Qualcomm????

Android 3.0 Gingerbread for N1

So what do you guys think?
Will there be 3.0 for the N1?
It meets all the minimum requirements for gingerbread, and it is googles prized phone. So Vote and leave a response
Of course there will be.
Why would we only have one update? Of course we're going to get it.

[Q] Any ROM that utilizes the 512MB?!

Dear good sirs,
is there a kernel out there that will unleash the full 512MB of RAM? please?
thank you
I believe a dedicated amount is for the video graphics.

does the Nexus One use all 512MB through it's Kernel's?
I think the biggest I've seen is in cognition with has 304 available for user/apps. As others above have said a portion will always be dedicated to video.
It's quite common on laptops. They'll advertise like 2gb but windows will show a lower value. The difference is allocated to video.

[RUMOR] I hate rumors but here it goes...

I hate hearing rumors, I really do. But I'm going to start one because mine has some merit to it. I have a friend of mine that works for Verizon. I told him I wouldn't state his name or what "department" he works in when I made this post. I was talking to him on the phone just about 45 minutes ago about the Revolution and how we're dying to get Gingerbread and how some people are actually getting rid of the Revo for fear that it will never get GB. Here's the conversation that took place.
Me: I just really wish we'd get it already. It would help out with development so much.
Him: Dude, whatever you do, don't get rid of your Revo.
Me: Haha, I'm not but why?
Him: You guys should be getting the soak test soon and as long as it goes good all Revos will have it by mid or late October.
Me: Don't bull**** me, how do you know?
Him: Trust me, it just came through an email 2 days ago. I meant to call you but I couldn't remember if you had actually bought the Revo or just waited for something different.
Me: Damn man that's awesome! You better not be bullshitting me.
Him: I'll put it this way, I put my paycheck on it.
Me: That's awesome man, hey can I tell people about our convo?
Him: I don't care, just don't use my name or where I work.
Me: Kinda HAVE to tell people where you work or I'll look like a retard hahaha.
Him: Oh ok but don't tell them what department I work in or anything. I already almost got fired a while back for putting out some info about the Bionic hahaha.
Me: Alright cool, hey thanks man. You have no idea how happy a lot of people are going to be when we get GB.
The rest of the convo was filled with nonsense talk about times past (and girls haha). Just thought I should share this info with you guys!
Loving this. I want GB!!!
I'm speechless
Thanks for the news.

a Soak Test is when the send out the update to a select few people and make sure that the update works in the real world with out breaking anything.

Soak testing is testing a system with a significant load over an extended period of time to discover how things act over a long period.
What he is saying is there are Revo's out there with 2.3.4 already installed on them. Verizon employees will carry and use a Revo on a daily basis with 2.3 loaded to see how it performs, what glitches arise etc...
If you play video games its kind of like an beta test only its not generally open to the public. During this time they also test the push out of the update to the phone to make sure everything will go smooth when they start pushing it to thousands at once.

Just want to update you guys a little more from my newest conversation.
Unfortunately he is in no position to get us a leak.
He works for tech support and received an email stating to be ready for possible high call volumes in about 2-3 weeks as the Gingerbread soak test begins for the LG Revolution. That was about all the email said.
Again though, this is in no way going to help us get a leak. Sorry guys.

V6 update? maybe luck out and get an update in the next 2-3 weeks
Hmmm?
Might be worth having a stock phone if it got the OTA update with gingerbread in it.
Think i'm going to check out Revolt 1.4 tonight and go back to stock in the morning.
Please, any thoughts on this?

I wouldn't worry about going to back to stock just yet. According to the email, the soak isn't even going to start unil about 2-3 weeks from Monday the 12th.
Not sure how lg does it but you can sign up for these soak test with motorola they will even send them out to a few people who have gotten root access and have gotten back to stock as close as possible without having root access. check the droid 3 forums they just either did one or just sent out the invite to join the soak test.

While the Revo is a great single core phone... Hardware wise.
Bionic:
1. Dual Core future proof
2. 2.3.4 out of the box
3. Gorilla glass screen
4. qHD
5. 8mp Camera
6. 1745 MaH battery
7. 1080p Video recording
8. For the non-rooted - No Bing.

Although I agree with most of what you said is better here, I sure wouldn't say that dual core is future proof. They had already began discussing quad core before the first dual core even came out.

Not a rumor - we have always known GB was coming. This is partly why Cubed had delayed his CM7 development.

Throwing more cores at a device does not necessarily increase performance, either, unless the application base and operating system takes full advantage of them for multi-threading.
Case in point: Most hard-core games on a PC that came out over the past 5 years will run the same, if not better on a single or dual core machine as they did on a quad core. What really makes the difference is architecture, clockspeed, application architecture, and most importantly (assuming the apps use it) GPU implementation!
Assuming all apps were hardware accelerated on an Android, you would care more about the GPU then you would the CPU. Being that a lot of apps are not hardware accelerated, or take advantage of aggressive multi-threading, you may actually see a performance drop on the Bionic depending on the implementation of the devices core implementation (much like the scores from the Atrix showed).
The hype of more cores = smoother experience is bunk. It's just a spec and numbers war. More cores = possibility of more apps running seamlessly at once, but only if the architecture is there to support it.

In my opinion. If you count by valve time it would be a TF 2 comparison.

Or rather Duke Nukem Forever time, they started the development in 1996 and released it 2011.

I totally agree, they need to hear us. You got a good piece of hardware here and if you want to wipe out the competition, you just have to deliver...still not gonna whine about the phone because its a hell of a phone for me and I don't regret having it...
I just hope they deliver ICS though, I won't care if they dont release GB if ICS is up and running on the phone
If the GB update solve all the current issues, I dont think it would take much time for them to deliver ICS, but still it depends on LG it they wants to give us ICS.
we will get ICS when Gellybean comes out, lg works on a different year.
