2.3 what the f...

Now LG say 2.3 after the summer on swedish site

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

Yeah the battery drain issues ><

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?

Downloading now, thanks heaps for your efforts!

Not Working:
Sound
Celluar Connectivety
Both Cameras
PTP / USB Mass Storage
Battery Calibration
Not exactly suitable as a daily driver, but it's always nice to get an early taste!
EDIT: Just came back from a quick test session and I have to say this ROM gives a very solid impression considering it's in alpha. One thing to add is that the Wi-Fi signal strength seems worse than on the nightlies. I was unable to connect to a network that would normally give me two out of four bars.

Missed this, thanks!
It might be worth making a 'not working' list in the OP as this thread is sure to get some attention.
So far I count:
Sound
Mobile Data
Both Cameras
PTP / USB Mass Storage
Battery Calibration
Calls
SMS/MMS
Edit: Oops... Missed above post

Thanks! Our first taste of ICS.
if the G2X project makes some progres, will this rom for our O2X be updated ?

thank you for letting us have a quick taste of Ice Cream Sandwich , I must say .. I really like the overall feel of Android 4.0 and I can't wait until this is suitable as a daily driver.

First, I want to say thanks to the developer that ported our work of art to the Optimus 2X but we are also working on a Optimus 2X build so there is no point in doing so. I guess this is good to give people a taste of whats to come. Look out for the final build from a developer by the name Benee.
Keep checking the original post for updates.
Edit: Just spoke with Benee and he is unsure if he will be releasing Alphas or waiting till the build is up to Daily Driver standards. I will keep you guys posted in our thread over in the G2X section. Once again thanks to the dev for porting the groups work over to the G2X.

Thats great news , if you choose to release the alphas it would be great but not very useful to the general public, and if you choose to release it when it is stable , im sure we can all wait

Unable to download
It seems that I'm unable to download from Rapidshare. Will any kind soul please upload it to Mediafire? Thanks in advance.

just curious, what capacitive button now substitute for the multi tasking button?

great, hope this will be the kick point for our O2X

Just to be sure, does it need a full wipe before flashing?
And I must say lots of thanks to the original g2x developers as well as the porter

If you're coming from another ROM, definitely yes.

Think positive! if more ppl test it the sooner we will have a stable release.
And you can wait as long as you want, but there are people who check the forum 10times a day, waiting for something like this to try.

I just flashed it over CM7 and it worked. Not sure about other ROMs.
@andy010101
I didnt post this in the DEV section for a reason. But doesnt matter now. xD
Put "preview" into topic title. So ppl shouldnt expect to much from this ROM.

CM10 eta expectations?

So what do you think guys when are we going to get first alphas?

The jump from ICS to Jelly Bean isn't as significant as Gingerbread to ICS. So I'd say a month

someone who knows things said (post in g+ by some cyanogenmod dude ) that code implementation is much easier than jump from GB to ICS. Most of the code is merged in a weekend or so, and after that alpha versions might start to appear. But yes..I'd say it takes close to month to have build that is close to daily runner.
But this just guessing..It's coming when it's coming

good points, but I bet on 2-3 more days

For our beloved SGS I9000, MKalter and his team are already working on a port. And I think they will have 90% of the features working in the next days They said they wont work on Call/SMS until sound is fixed. It's fixed since today, so i think they will now get it working and we all can start enjoying our JellyBeans *-*

Development on the Touchpad ? Where is it now

I use my touchpad regularly, ever since ICS came out on it, i havent seen anything new really. Whats the deal with the ICS ? has it progressed passed alpha 2.5, or the last update in march ? How is jelly bean coming along ?
Thanks !

It is a rolling 2 weeks...meaning at any point you ask, or even think about it, you can expect it to take 2 weeks from that point.

To put it politely Moghie, yes this is in the right forum, it is in the Q&A forum...
saadkhan07,
There is regular development and a healthy community developing for the HP Touchpad. Nightly builds are being built now, and are available through CyanogenMod's public page. You can also download goomanager and check on nightly releases that are available and download them. If you would like to keep track of the project through IRC, you can connect to freenode and join #cyanogenmod-touchpad; beware, it is a very lively room.

I dont know where the idea of "nothing new" is coming from. But there is plenty going on with the TouchPad. CM9 is being updated regularly with the nightlies. There are plenty of other ROMs. Jelly Bean has been proven to be in the works. And on the webOS side, webOS is in the process of going open source. This is a great device to own and its VERY MUCH supported.
Try owning a Droid X2. lol

Android 4.4

Since Android 4.4 has low system requirements, do you think anyone will make a rom for our device?
as for NEON, Tonyp managed to make 4.3 work so I'm guessing it is possible with 4.4?

KittKatt would be awesome!
I sure hope someone will... I think it might run a lot better than jellybean versions considering the memory requirements... I just hope that not too much has changed 'under the hood' to make it work with current drivers. LG will never release new drivers.
To anyone who tries: Good luck and well done!!

Tonyp's 2 cents about kitkat
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...postcount=1086
this is a main topic on o2x forum... use a search a bit before opening a new thread

Well, we hope so...if pengus77 and tonyp doesn't hit a roadblock with android 4.4 sources. Well be satisfied with we have right now. Android 4.3 for our phones is doing great.

Wrong thread.

Really hope for a 4.4 ROM that would be GREAT
Out there are alredy custom AOSP roms on the nexus 4 i think and the HTC one i read that on google
But i reckon it will be possible for most devices with cyanogenmod

You all do realize that this ain't such an easy thing to accomplish? Aside the "low memory requirement" that 4.4 offers, it is still a long shot. First of all, there's the thing with the drivers that we are stuck on since android 4.0, LG's final update. tonyp and pengus have done an amazing job regarding this, but as all of you might know, tony is upgrading. I'm not sure if to the N5 or Z1Mini, but regardless in one of his posts on the "The Rom" thread he stated that he yet does not know what to do with his love-hate o2x. Second of all, even cyanogenmod stated that they won't be updating older devices regardless of the 512mb requirement. Then there's NEON and the fact that even Google abandoned our Tegra. Other than that, I am more than satisfied with his 10.2 rom, and I'm currently using it as a daily driver. Other than that, install linux, sync repos and cook roms. This community has yet to die. Oh, or theme. Theming works well.
I may be new to the O2X community, but I read a lot.

I would love to learn how to code / cook ROMs but from what I've worked out you need to have a dedicated machine for the job?

Well, you do at least need a machine with linux dual boot. Cooking is far easier today than it was just a few years ago, I mean tony has a tutorial for cooking your own CM10 build, but yeah, it all depends on linux. There's a lot to download, also (I remember AOSP sources from 4.0 to be like 2 gigs. Or was it 2.3? Don't know, it was for the Optimus GT540 some time ago). All in all, it does take time, patience and some luck. I mean, every recognized contributor earned the title simply by trying. Try, fail, but don't brick and you'll do it

Issue is Linux has never worked well for me (force closes everyware! Which version would you recommend?
