It's good if they will actually stick to their word this time but it's still quite crap that it will have taken them nearly 6 months to release. When the devs on here have already released gingerbread ROMs!!
Come on LG some your [email protected]#t out!!
I wish people would stop posting these, it's clear that LG have no idea when they're releasing it.
It especially didn't need a new thread when there are so many on it already.

Yea, Samsung has sold 5M S2's in 85 days. If LG did better for O2X as First Dual Core Mobile. This won't happen

Because how many times have LG said June, July, August, September, The next 2 weeks etc.

NO THEY KNOW LESS We already know how and when GB will be ...
It will be when we decide ( just instal CM7 or modaco ) and will be 1000% much better than any LG rom

Would still be great to have the sources for 2.3 - together with the LG Apps (esp. Camera app) which will work on 2.3 ...
the main reason, maybe LG didn't know how to make GB fully operational in optimus 2x or they too busy to prepare a new comer, optimus 3d etc. etc?
Probably the amount of bugs to fix
don't hold your breath.
One thing is for sure.
There are going to be a lot of Pissed off people if we get the GB update and the phone still suffers from overheating and shutdown issues

I saw an article on XDA Facebook, and in it it says that the Optimus 2x will launch with Gingerbread?
http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...rs/ShsH+(xda-developers)&utm_content=FaceBook
From what i have seen the Optimus 2x launches with a 2.2.2 Froyo, so is this a mistake in article or will it realy launch with gingerbread?
Good Question! Would be nice to know where xda got their information from.
At this time , I don't think it will pre-install 2.3 when it become on sell to the market
Sent from my Milestone using XDA App
I too dont think thats true. LG would already have announced it because that would be huge news.
w. w . w .lg.com/uk/mobile-phones/mobile-phones/LG-android-mobile-phone-P990.jsp
here they say it will be Froyo so I really don't know xD maybe later versions will be with gingerbread
Well here in Denmark, it will be sold with the Android 2.2 Froyo, but it will be able to be updated to gingerbread when you take it out of the box

This indeed is very very interesting:
Is this written on the outside of the box? If this is the case and its also on other language-versions, LG would be obligated to give us endless Android updates.
If they will once stop doing so, we could constrain them by a lawsuit or get our money back.

I downloaded the sync software from LG just to be ready when my phone arrives and I was told there was an upgrade available. Have you tried this? Might be some bug fixes.
Also, is that advanced task killer I see in the notification bar? Task killers may affect performance and stabillity in froyo if used indescrimimately. Please do not use this when doing initial testing before you report back on the phone here.

Gingerbread will gonna boost some performance for sure. I've experienced this with galaxy ace. LG singapore has announced 2.3.x OTA for some phones, i'm sure our phone is next and i believe our devs will be excited.
Sent from my LG-P970 using Tapatalk
I think you should not sell your OB, coz it has nice hardware. and it is still competitive to other high end phones. especially when you use Cyanogenmod ROMS and other really nice ROMS (like Nova )
By the way, Gingerbread update here in Philippines will be on October.

Why are you asking when gingerbread for o2x? It's clear, it will be released the 12/21/2012
You know something Guys...We Have the Leaked Roms..why bother with Blaming LG for the Upgrade when we can actually see that they are really working on it..Slow No doubt but atleast they are working.Its not like anything will change with the official Launch.

Why is it then, that the community can bring out a ROM and they can't? Do they have 1 monkey coding all of it? Their support is just below par and I am never buying a phone from them again.

Why should we root our phone, void our warranty when it is clearly LG responsibility to resolve them?

I hate it when people are ranting stuff. SE's X10 is stuck with the 2.1 within years. Motorola's Atrix just got it's GB. Not too late for the LG. Samsung's also bombed by rants on discontinuing updates on it's Galaxy Spica. Nokia's symbian line is nearly dead.
But luckily we have lots of talented devs out there all working for free. And all I hear are freaking rants/hate or whatever they forgot to fix.
Go back to the stone age. The stones are final, no bugs attached.
Now that Ricardo is going straight for ICS on our P970s, I thought it would be better if we had a thread for this instead of clogging up the CM7 discussion thread.

[Video] ICS on the Optimus Black

sweet, hope we get it soon.
Please don't turn this thread into a SPAM thread, or ask questions like "when will it be released". We'll have it once it's ready, and you asking about that won't help anyone so please don't. Let's keep this one clean with only announcements or actual facts in regards to ICS development. Thanks
How come we "discuss" a rom by just watching pics and vids and not installing it.. .
I guess we may be able to though... in couple of days.
This is great! Too bad he didn't continue the video on the Browser Portion. It's where we can see if ICS hardware acceleration works on OB by judging the smoothness of the scrolling. I heard ICS needs new driver for existing GPUs but i hope I'm wrong.
Most of changes are approved and merged into git repository. I think we're getting ICS soon on next nightlies together with O3D, maybe. cmiiw
I don't think it will be in the next nightly ! because it's CM7 nightly and ICS will be CM9.
Maybe in another branch (or not, because I think it's nude ICS for the moment...)
can not wait to test ASAP
ICS YEAH
Can't wait to test ICS on my awesome P970 .
Proud to be Portuguese :b Big up Ricardo!
We are NOT getting CM9. It hasnt even been released yet. Right now all the roms you will see pop up are ICS roms ie pure google. It wont be in the same branch as the CM7 nightlies
i wanna test too so bad
Yeap different branch... so be patient all

I think the OB menu key will become redundant in ICS 4.0. I wish the menu key can be mapped to Recent Apps for Galaxy Nexus like experience.

"Following the footsteps of Samsung and Sony, LG has come forth with details on which devices will be getting Android 4.0 -- also known as Ice Cream Sandwich "
"During the second quarter of 2012 upgrades will begin for the following smartphone models: the LG Optimus LTE, Prada phone by LG 3.0, the LG Optimus 2X, the LG Optimus Sol, the LG myTouch Q and the LG Eclipse. These upgrades will be followed by upgrades for the following smartphone models during the third quarter of 2012: the LG Optimus 3D, the LG Optimus Black, the LG Optimus Big, the LG Optimus Q2 and the LG Optimus EX."
Well it looks like by the end of the year LG will have ICS release for our device, but (and its a big one) we obviously dont know how long it will take at&t to ready it for us.
So it looks like AT&T will let us down even more.
With that being said from now on all my android decives will be bough directly from google, to ensure that I get the latest android builds.
FYI: for those that are not aware LG has also already released GB for our phone and AT&T has it, but we all know how that is going.

That's a fake rom with a funny launcher.
This is the last time I buy a LG phone. I very much regret purchasing the Thrill 4G and if I could return it (I am beyond the 30 day window), I would.
---------- Post added at 10:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:21 AM ----------
The stock ROM is horrible with all the bloat. All that crap kills my battery, and it is only running Andorid 2.2, so everything is sluggish. My single core Droid X that I bought a year ago was much faster. LG bloat is a perfect example why Google needs to lock down the manufacture and carrier software that is installed on Android devices.
LG and AT&T sucks!
I was super excited to get this phone but once I started rooting it and wanting to do more it has done nothing but give me problems. I live in a 4G area but I'm getting less then 3G speeds, all AT&T will do it kinda look at it until I get mad enough to just walk out of the store. When I call in I ask to be offered another phone and an upgrade price and they refuse, I've only been with AT&T for 7 months and I'm ready to break the contract and leave for good.
