I noticed a thread over in the O3D forums that was discussing purchasing a device for a professional developer so they could start getting aosp fully custom roms for their device... would anyone be interested in doin this w the thrill? Does anyone know of a dev we could employ/help out by purchasing them a thrill? I wish I could be the guy to do this, as I feel like (if I had more time) I could learn to build Android from source... but I can't. Let me know what you think and if you would be willing/able to donate..

I read online that it is possible to install the base Android 2.3.4 on the LG Thrill 4G.
http://m.answers.downloadatoz.com/q,14906,how-to-update-lg-thrill-4g-to-android-2-3-4-firmware.html
Above referenced is the website describing how to install 2.3.4 I just would like more information from someone more knowledgeable about the Thrill and Android. Is it actually possible and will 2.3.4 fully function on this phone?

WHY should it be deleted why wont anyone explain what they say..

Because 2.3.4 is not out for this device yet. And if you flash some random devices ROM on to your thrill its not going to work. But if you want to try and flash it. Go for it. But be fore warned, its not going to work. But if you must, flash the rom and see what happens.

Basically, that page is telling you to do something that just isn't possible at this time. In order to install CM7 (what that page is suggesting), someone will have to port it to our specific device. There are going to be things that will need drivers, recompiling, etc. before it can be installed on a Thrill.
Can we get a lock on this thread.before the flaming begins

Where's Mr. Clown when you need him?
Give the Guy a break. Everyone starts out learning like we all did. Basically the link you referenced was simply asking if it could be done, and like another poster explained a cyanogen mod would have to be created yet nobody has made one for the device yet most likely since its so new. Hope this helps.

Unfortunately LG has to build the source if you want to be able to use the 3D stuffs. We have cm7 that works but due to real3d being proprietary an aosp gingerbread build wont allow for that stuff to work.

So we can't use 3D unless LG releases that build?!?!?!?!?

Patience. Remember that this is a new phone. And the 3D application is still new so it takes a bit to get things optimized for specialized features on devices.
I believe they're making some progress on CM for the EVO3D. Should be somewhat applicable.

There is also progress being made on the Optimus 3D, which is essentially the same device as ours. Patience will pay off on this one.
OP: don't take all the angry/annoyed comments too personally, I think my first post here got the same reaction! Nobody is trying to be an asshole to you though, its just that the rules are pretty clear but there's a constant influx of new members who unknowingly break the rules and it annoys the devs that want to use this sub-forum for its intended use. Just read the rules and you'll be good

I was running some unofficial build of CM7 for a couple weeks this month, it was clearly made for the optimus 3d, not thrill, and I didn't even try using any of the 3d applications because people complained about it causing force closes... But other than that, it was extremely impressive! The speed/fluidity was incredible. I didn't like how it handled storage, but that was my first time using CM7 so I probably just need to get used to it.
Anyway, if you can go without 3d for a while, the unofficial CM7 port for optimus 3d is impressive! I think the link is on the dev forum in optimus 3d. Oh, and I personally didn't have any problems with my network data, so I'd suggest trying it out before flashing some other radio, it might not be necessary.
Can this post be moved to the "General" section yet since there's no "Development" going on in it?
Just got the LG Thrill but forums seem dead, and not a lot being developed for this phone should I go ahead and return it and get something else?
Feedback would be greatly appreciated..

Do you like the phone? That should answer your question on whether to return it or not.
First off, this question should be in the general section as there is no "Development" going on in it.
Second, Overall, the Thrill is a great phone with Amazing potential when Gingerbread is finally released. When ICS is released, even better. I still feel that when Gingerbread hits, there will be a lot more development going on as no one wants to develop for Eclair since it will be updated in less than a month (hopefully).
With the tri-dual technology, this thing could demolish the SGS2 if given the correct software.
Yes, more development is going on over in the SGS2 forums, so you have a tough decision to make my friend.
Ya I'm a flashaholic, so seeing this forum without very much development on roms is the only thing making me second guess my purchase, the phone itself on the other hand is a very nice piece of machinery...i mean i love the phone even in its stock form...but like i said im a flashaholic and love just tinkering with my phone...not a developer at all : / though I wish i were. I'm coming from a Mytouch 4G which I had sense 3.5 Android 2.3.5...so its just a whole new world to me I guess..

Please follow the forum rules and post in the right section. Thanks.
Since our beloved Motorola ATRIX has most of the specs needed to run ICS, I believe it is possible to do a port of ICS to the ATRIX like how developers did for the Google nexus s. Is there any developer willing to give it a try? I'm sure many ATRIX owners would like to have the latest and greatest version of android running on their device.

CM will be working on it. and atrix is supported by CM officially. DOnt ask when it's gonna be done.
also this does not belong in Development section.
Topic of the year.
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
Not a development thread, and it's generally a useless topic to discuss. Obviously developers for the Atrix want to give it a try. Whether or not a port comes to fruition is a whole 'nother story.
Hi guys I know this seems pretty far fetched but is anyone willing to develop a port of the GB MIUI to the Bionic? If its POSSIBLE why hasn't anyone done it? If it isn't possible why can't it be done? I'm still trying to understand why no one's attempted this task since it has been the most popular rom up to date and it seems like MIUI4ever has just dropped off the face of the earth as of late. while i'm a big fan of InSaNeMoD's attempt to port it properly i'm seriously missing my OG Droid for my MIUI rom.
I could try porting it, no guarentees though!

I've wondered why no one did this first to begin with! Want a fully working rom other than eclipse and liberty. They both look similar and all other roms have the same issues making them unfit to be my daily driver as much as I want them to be.

Again, not development.
Please use the correct subforum.
Okay so jw I don't see allot of development is this phone almost dead or does it have a future ?

Bump for greatness anybody answer my question?
Sent from my LG-P925 using XDA
most of the devs jumped ship.
There's still a few good devs hanging around. but I think ROM production has peaked, until ICS is released at the end of year.
There is more activity on the O3D forums, all the ROMs work on the P925.
Sent from my LG-P920 using xda premium
Yeah so I heard but atleast we have O3D support and we know for sure were getting ICS so makes things nice knowing that but another question do we have official cyanogenmod support I couldn't help but notice our spot on there forums but not on the main page so that's kinda confusing
Sent from my LG-P925 using XDA
There is at least one dev working on CM7 for P920/P925. Updates are sparse, but there is support.
I'm not too sure why we're not on the official devices page, perhaps because there is no Stable release yet?
