I was just looking over the available firmwares and noticed the following are now available in the Euro Open
LGP920 has V21a available now
and
LGP990 has V20i available
I was surprised to see the LGP920 further along on the development path.
I know this is an LGP970 forum but I just thought it was interesting

Surprising if you're not following developments. This was announced, O3D and O2X Gingerbread FW is now available in EU. P970 will get Gingerbread on 28th. This is old news.
Sorry, I guess I was not more clear. I was surprised that the 920 was so far ahead of the 990 and the 970 was lagging so much.

its Nov 28th for P970

They are flagships (dual core). And p970 is single core. They (LG) would update them first. O3D is OMAP, and O2X is Tegra based. Even CM has an incomplete port of O2X concerning hardware acceleration (drivers). Nvidia is the one making it dfficult for O2X.
What's your point?

Based on the article, it's based on Qualcomm's Snapdragon (Scorpion). Since it's based on Scorpion (not Krait), I assume this is a 1.5Ghz version of the 8660 with the Adreno 220.
My guess is that Qualcomm did the GB port for LG for this chipset.
Qualcomm's Android support is miles better than that of NVidia. That may be the reason why the Ox2 shipped prematurely with Froyo, whereas the new LU6200 is shipping with GB.

It's named Optimus LTE. It will go into selling at 26.Sep by LGU+.
It will has GB 2.3.5 and has 1280×720 IPS disply. (Yesterday SG2 got GB 2.3.5).
But LGU+ is only Korean provider. You will see this a few weeks or months later.
I think personally, O2x looks like LG's child by a concubine.

Yes. it has perfect body but has lack of soul.
LU6200 need help
In fact, there are a lot of people are using LU 6200, but there has been no good ROM, we always hope to Android4, always want to find the managers to our development, but our English is not good, can not register XAD, now I represent, hope the development team can give us the development of CM9to LU-6200, we there are really a lot of people are hoping to use CM9. Now CM9P930 for ROM, our LU-6200 and P930 configuration is consistent, but not to CM9, why? The hope can give our LU-6200 development ROM.
LG confirms today that the Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) OS will be initially available for the following high-end LG smartphones which were introduced this year: the Optimus 2X, the Optimus Black, the Optimus 3D and the Optimus LTE. We are also continuing to evaluate the ICS OS to determine whether it is compatible with the functionality, features and performance of other LG smartphones to make the ICS OS available on as many LG smartphones as possible.
In December this year, the forthcoming upgrade schedule and additional specific models for the ICS OS upgrade will be posted on our LG Mobile Global Facebook page and on our local LG websites. Please stay tuned for more updates from LG.
where is the source link?

Actually, if this is the ONLY ICS speculation thread, it will remain open - but if we start getting a bazillion of them, they will be closed.
ETA As a matter of fact, this will be the Official ICS Speculation thread, title has been edited, all others will be closed.
Erm... I don't wanna say anything negative, but I already posted that like a week ago in the Cyanogen Mod discussion thread, since that already turned into a discussion about everything concering the P970 as it seems...

yes u right, i thing so..
Well, if LG keeps their promise, P970 will be the last handset of these four to get the ICS update, unless they come at the same time. Should be possible to get it within Q1 of 2012, but i don't think so. They haven't revealed the ETAs on their facebook page yet, have they?
yes hulkhaugen you're right...
they haven't announced etas of ice so if I think about the gb update we will get ics at the end of 2012...

Ginderbread should be out tomorrow
ideally from what i have heard official lg gingerbread for optimus black should be out tomorrow ... 12-Dec
Would be nice birthday gift for me , but i guess they dropped GB to focus on ICS.
Anyone wanna guess the delay duration?
LG plans to begin upgrading its portfolio of Android handsets to Ice Cream Sandwich in the second quarter of next year, the company has just announced. Among the first phones to benefit from Android 4.0 will be the Optimus 2X, which launched as the world's first dual-core smartphone earlier this year, the recent Optimus LTE, and the upcoming Prada Phone. They'll be followed by the Optimus 3D, Optimus Black, Optimus Big, and a couple of other handsets in Q3 of 2012. Not exactly the most aggressive rollout roadmap in the world, but we'd rather see the ICS upgrade happen later than never.
Importantly, LG continues to make no mention of the American variants of these phones — such as the T-Mobile G2x or the AT&T Thrill 4G and Nitro HD — what their fate will be remains to be seen.

Nice.. hopefully LG won't just keep pushing the dates further as they did for gingerbread.
Good news, screw the american versions, they need to be updated by their carriers anyway.
Just wish nvidia would released their crap so the dev community can make a decent ICS release NOAW.
Q2...yes...
BUT Q2 for LG's calendar, not the Gregorian calendar.
finally, i hope so, it wouldnt late Q3.
From LG Mobile facebook page:
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 my Touch 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.

I wonder about delay... Maybe we should bet?
I really hope we will receive it, but till that time I think CM with ICS will be ready.
Q2 ends in late june, maybe that's when we'll get it.
LG won't release ICS on early april. That's a fact.

I seriously doubt cm is going to release ICS for us untill its already out.
Maybe yes, maybe now. It can be the same situation as with Gingerbread. CM was provided before the official release.
The situation might be worse since we need LG for the camera and Nvidia source (or binaries that help... not 100% sure on that). An LG leaked build may help to a very limited extent. Until then it's just a waiting game.

Hello!
Yes, Jelly Bean will be most probably out by then and the next generation Google phone with it...
I am confident that the Cyanogenmod Team will be faster than LG and ICS/CM9 will be released by Q2/2012
I am also sure that LG will release its ICS build no earlier than late Q3 to Q4/2012 – but I would be very happy if I am wrong and LG can pull its stuff together and get ICS out as announced…
But all of this is of course IMHO.
that's very cute, I'll expect the ics update by December again

One way or another we will get it, super late from LG or half a year earlier through Nvidia source and CM9.

The source for their development platforms (e.g. Tegra 2's Harmony and Ventana along with whatever else they came up with.). O2X has slightly different hardware but this will be a lot better than the nothing Nvidia has provided so far. Though, given the lack of camera, even on OMAP platforms (TI released source), it looks like camera and maybe a few other things could ultimately be up to LG. Let's hope they leak something early. =P
I had not choice but to sign up and ask because no matter how hard I search I get conflicting info and not any really basic how to instructions about how to upgrade my Wind Mobile LG Optimus 2X phone to Ginderbread OS.
I must be a dam noob.
Is there any basic step by step instructions on how I can upgrade or at least find the place to look. I found the sticky but its all over the place and can't find some real instruction.
ht..tp://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/LG_Optimus_2X:_Full_Update_Guide[/url]
can i use this guide??
Any help would be much appreciated. I feel like a dummy not being able to figure this **** out.
I dont think that there is any difference between a Wind Mobile 2X and any other 2X device. So you can upgrade your 2x like any other. But you should inform yourself before doing so.
jes the more i read the more im lost .
i assume the first thing i hav eto do is root my phone. is supeoneclick ok to use??
The Wind Optimus 2X is actually the G2X... be careful. Don't try flashing any rooms you see here in this forum go to the G2X one

ICS Updated release schedule
For what its worth, I just talked to an LG Canada rep and asked about the gingerbread update for Wind mobile and was informed that ICS will be released in august or september.
Mike P: Hello, ws. Can I help you with anything today?
ws: Hi, just wondering if there is a an android gingerbread update available for the optimus 2x from wind mobile available yet.
Mike P: Unfortunately not at the moment.
ws: any idea when?
Mike P: Broadly speaking, the ICS OS upgrade will be available on LG’s upgradable smart phones starting from the second or third quarter of 2012. The detailed schedule and relevant models will be determined based on discussions with the carriers in each market.
ws: will it be ota or upgradeable through the website?
Mike P: Yes, via our mobile support tool.
ws: so the update to ics will be in august or september for the 2x?
Mike P: That's correct

I really wonder if any Optimus 2X will actually get ICS. I think that they are having problems with the NVIDIA SOC Tegra 2 driver compatibility with ICS and that the phone only has 512 MB of system memory available. I hope I'm wrong but the lack of specific ICS update plans for the Optimus 2X makes me wonder.
Used Google Translate, maybe someone speaking korean can shed some light?
http://translate.google.com/transla...&u=http://www.lgnewsroom.co.kr/contents/12232
Got this from lgnewsroom.co.kr
I really don't want to produce some hype out of this, but maybe our LG P990 is also targetted to be upgraded starting today?
Old news: It's about Optimus Vu and LTE. Nothing for our 2X yet...
And the sad thing is that we have not even seen a leaked ics version yet...

In June I am not hoping for any update, but I hope that by August, I officially ICS on my phone.
Or ask too much from LG?
It'll be easier to just change phone and never buy anything from LG again.

chances that LG will ship ICS update to O2X
With the current phase manufacturers are shipping out devices I simply can't believe that LG would be putting any effort to upgrade Optimus 2X to ICS in Q3/2012.
They will have already too many devices announced/in the pipeline at Q3/2012 where they will focus their development resources that they will not definitely to sacrifice any resources to platform they will not use anymore. And that's sad & irresponsible and eventually this kind of behavior will really hurt the whole Android story. Too many manufacturers are selling stuff they will discontinue supporting while people are still on the contract with their carriers. And honestly HW on Optimus 2x could live for ages if you just look on the HW spec.
