I would like to see how my x2 will run with Gingerbread, does any one no when we will be able to update to this? Also will Gingerbread allow the use of dual core?
Many thanks
First of all, the kernel used in Froyo for the 2X/G2X is supporting dual-core. But of course, Gingerbread may make better use of dual-core. But again, both cores are used at the moment on both the 2X and the G2X.
Secondly, T-Mobile wrote on Twitter that Gingerbread was not close away for the G2X. I think it will be released by the end of this month. But it is just a guess.
For the 2X, LG have reported a release in either june or july.

If you want to test install a rom manager to make a backup of yours and after you can try CM7 just to have a look... is interesting
After it i suggest for daily use to come back not to stock but to some Froyo with Modaco base

That must be a joke,
but by the way... i'm sure lg will bring android 2.3 to the 2x when cyanogen brought 3.1 alread!
There is no CM 3.1 ROM, Honeycomb is still closed source.

I'm sure he means, that by the time 3.1 (Or really ICS, 'cause HC isn't going to be opensourced) has been turned into a CM release, LG might release GB
When they realese it then CM8 would come with Ice Cream Sandwich!
I am just joking.

Wrong section - stop replying people, thread needs to die.
Why is there yet another thread about this???
We all know it was delayed, and I think more and more people know it won't come at all.
I got 2 email replies from LG. The first one said the update will come after summer for sure. The second one said there is no precise date for the update, not even after summer.
So to sum up:
n°1 LG is telling us all to go **** ourselves on this one
n°2 It's useless to open a new thread every time LG tells us to go **** ourselves
n°3 LG is ****ing ****
Froyo -> Gingerbread upgrade is not all that big. Most of you won't even know its running gingerbread vs froyo. Not sure what the big deal is.
its not about the software update, we have CM7 for that.
Its about the kernel update that we want from gingerbread.
And also, are you kidding? "most of you want know the difference" ? where do you think you are? this is XDA why do you think where here?

Pretty sure most of the people *****ing about it want it for the sake of having the number "2.3" written on the version screen as oppose to "2.2.2". What will gingerbread let you do that you can't do now?
If you're having issues with the phone (reboots/freezes etc) then fair enough otherwise just chill. It's just a phone.
I had a HTC Legend before Optimus 2X. And when the stable cm7 rom was running in my phone it was WAY faster then with any stable custom Froyo-rom. And 2.3 looks very nice. 2.3 also has the Screen-off animation, and a function to select text in messages and on webpages to easier copy, edit or delete parts.
Thats what I can remember I miss atm..

Yeah you're right, we need the kernel to produce better and stable CM7s or other gingerbread builds >< If only we could get our hands on one single Optimus 2x kernel source code ><
Dont know if you have tried CM7 lately but its VERY stable, at this point the only thing we need LG to fix is maybe the battery drivers

Gb will surely bring a lot of stuff to o2x as I understand. Most important imho proper use of dual core and gtalk videochat. Guess a lot of people will notice the speed improvements at least.

I almost agree.... cm7 rocks and no point at all using standard rom however the battery aint so bad is it? I manage live wallpaper, fair usage on wifi, 3g and 3 hours a day audiobook ( yes works tough going lol )baseband/rij 725 and she lasts a day no problem ........ if you think thats bad you should try my wifes iphone 3gs!!!
edit:- lcd brightness is also up full tilt
edit again.... why doesnt lg/htc/etc etc hire the cm devs? as far as im aware they dont get paid much if anything other than the odd donation and a new phone here and there for a hell of a lot of work.... surely if anyone should be doing the official roms its people like them who love their work?

There you go everyone it is official we are getting ICS from LG. So even if CM9 never gets released for our phones we are getting ICS for sure.

Cool, so if we base this off of history with the GB release, 2013 seems about accurate right?
I just hope someone is able to make a rom soon
Sent from my LG-P925 using xda premium
hopefully a rom comes out soon . If one does come out soon id jusr forget about puting GB on on my phone and just use ICS.
Well you might as well flash GB in the interim. Hopefully arcee doesnt give up development for our phone with ICS.
I know LG has a horrible reputation on this forum but, I am going to be positive here and give them a chance. If they are announcing in December the roll out dates then I am hoping for a first quarter 2012 release.
Who knows though, I am happy with GB right now and soon you guys will have the option to install GD as well GingerDoom is on its way.

isnt there a guy named Ricardo whose developing ICS for the Optimus 3D ? Or did he drop that project and move on to another ?
that doesn't mean it will officially come to at&t. It does not say LG Thrill. It will probably be up to AT&T

No one is certain if he has ditched the O3D or not, he is a developer of Cyanogenmod. It is just nice to know that if CM9 never comes and no one is able to get a full working rom we will at least get ICS from LG at some point.

Whether ATT releases it or not doesn't matter, if LG releases it for O3D we get it too. All you would have to do is flash the ICS kdz the same way you flash the GB kdz. ATT hasn't released GB yet but, I am running it just fine.

The Thrill is the Optimistic 3d, which they have not abandoned. The difference is the ATT branding.
If an Official Thrill update doesn't show, its not LG. At this point all ATT needs to do is add their tweaks and push it.

What I don't understand is why nobody tampers with the baseband to make it support Euro and American frequencies. Every other phone I've ever delt with could support that, but it's like the Thrill and Optimus 3D are two complete phones.... Even though they aren't? Nothing makes sense to me anymore
EDIT:
I only have a Thrill because AT&T was handing them out for free in my state (Montana) because of their service hasn't been too great. But from what I see, the Thunderbolt has a better community going on here. I came from a Captivate, and have atleast modded 15-20 different phones, but this phone seems like the red headed step child.

I think is they try to do the frequnecies thing it might require more work so it might be easier to just use the Euro KDZ for GB or ICS. I'm not sure though they might end up doing it sooner or later. It all dpeneds on the developer.

Found this at AC.com . I apologize if this has already been posted, but I didn't see it in the development secion. This makes getting on GB a snap.
Is working great! The first few minutes, download speeds seemed really slow. But then it's picked up and it's fast.
Best part is when you long click the power button, you have the option of booting into recovery rather than having to shut the phone off and do the three button trick.
This kind of post should be in general section, as far as you are not developing yourself. Move thread.
SWEEET!
Awesome heads up on this! Been running this since you shared the great find! Seems like we finally have a promising GB and ICS future since he is also working on 4.0 port.. I wonder how he got around not needing the O3D baseband...?
arcee had worked with me. I have done some basic cyanogenmod stuff for the inspire 4g.

I have been running the CM7 build for the thrill froyo baseband, and its freaking awesome. We finally have a good solid GB with great radio working. No HDMI, no 3d, but this is fantastic. 1 week solid so far
So that's it noone else posting
I want to try the new rom from Ueshada is a GB rom
but I wonder if doing this first will let me flash his rom
or will it get stuck at a bootloop or worse have a brick on my desk
This was posted in the Developer section:

Also, the proper link to the CM7 nightly downloads is:
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=nightly&device=p925
Installed the latest build last night myself. Working wonders so far. Never cared much about 3D after the initial 'wow' factor. Never used HDMI. Everything else seems to be working with a few quirks here and there. Can't believe how much faster the phone is over the stock Froyo crap. Was sick and tired of waiting for AT&T and LG to pull their heads out of their @$$ and update the phone. I very much appreciate the hard work everyone has put forth getting these GB CM7 roms out for the Thrill.

Do u have a link u used/file/zip.
all i have looked for turn out to b bad files
I used the links here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1423820
Had no issues. Currently running cm_p925_full-4.zip with google addons myself. A few random reboots but no more than stupid stock Froyo did. Very happy with it so far.
Echo is an issue. They evidently have something wrong with the noise cancellation mic on these builds. To fix the issue turn down your volume while in a call or the person on the other end will hear themselves echo. Hopefully it'll be fixed in one of the next releases.

Hey everyone... finally got myself a thrill last night It is amazing!! I rooted it with superoneclick and put cwm on it already but now what rom should I get? I read that the cyanogenmod roms doesn't have working hdmi, and 3d!! Which is what this phone is mainly about. Any suggestion on a stable working rom that doesn't interfere with 3d features or HDMI? Like a gingerbread rom with sense ui port? Or is this phone too new and developers haven't had the time to port it over yet? Thanks for all the answers everyone!

Were just really waiting for a north american release of ginger bread but there are some good ones thriller and doom also if 4g isnt that big of a deal optimus 3d thread has lots of good roms
I did check the development thread but didn't see much rom that is consider stable. I would like to keep everything functional, 4g, 3D, and HDMI. I saw thriller rom but there was something that was missing from it that didn't catch my eye. Also what will putting the rom from the optimus 3d do to the thrill? what feature will be missing.
thrill seeker check that one out it removes all the crap apps that come with the phone and help phone run smother better some have overclocks and new themes
We are essentially asking the same question. Can the Moderators combine our threads? Here's my post...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1475388
The only bit of advice I have about the different ROMs to share from my thread is that GB baseband and custom ROMs do improve performance but the CM7 is supposedly AMAZING. Anyways... I'm about to put CM7 on my phone. I know I will lose 3D and HDMI but I think I can live without it... after all it is rather gimmicky.
3D is what this phone is all about, I guess I have to wait for mods to explore more on this phone.
