Android 2.3 for lg2x coming out in june/july 2011

According to the danish lg site, under FAQ of the LG Optimus 2x, they say that it'll be out in june/july 2011. So that seems to be as official they have stated a release date yet

If that's real, than it's a real shame. 6 months to get GB working on their flagship device seems really lame and only shows LG inability to give the updates in a timely manner. In June Android 2.4 will be already launched.

Yeah this sucks ballzzzz

Yeah it seems to be true, but have only been posted (as far as I have checked) on the Scandinavian sites for Denmark, Sweden and Norway.
I also made this post about it (maybe in the wrong section) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1034970
EDIT: With a picture btw.

This means Cyanogenmod is again overtaking the manufacturer

this is in line with LG italy "our scope is to provide the update in the first half of this year"
edit:
i've just finished a livechat with italian LG support.
they have no info on gingerbread update.

Im glad there are alot of custom roms. LG fails again. superhardware lack of support
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App

oh my goodness when is the cyanogen gingerbread update .........

hehe who cares? I only care about CM7

The problem is there are a lot of fixes needed even within the LG Android 2.2.2, it's not all about providing GB. The stock LG software is subpar in my oppinion and the problems signaled here and on other forums needs to be addressed by LG hopefully before June.
[email protected], CM7 would be nice but for O2X is in a far from usable state.

If LG launch the 2.3 with the know how demonstrated on 2.2... I don't see how this is a good news...
CM7 is all that mater

maybe LG is waiting for cm7, and get the idea from it

I absolutely agree with the statement "Who cares, I just want CM7".
Then again, LG having the low-level dev access that they have (drivers and whatnot), isn't much easier for them to dev the update than for us to dev CM7? Moreover, wouldn't it be much easier to port CM7 if we had an LG 2.3 ROM?
Cheers.

Shame I switched from Samsung after month of **** firmwares and now the same on lg - now I really consider apple - they know hot to build a kernel to use the hardware
google and android is as it seems incapable of delivereing a kernel for single or dual core
the always bring out new phones and none run well
the lg drives me crazy for 2 weeks - its more lame than my nexus one

I kind of like LG for the speed, is much faster than the Galaxy S no matter what kernel you had on it, but O2X has other problems like the poor audio quality in calls and still the software doesn't feel like it's the final version, more like a test one. I agree we should expect more because the super fast hardware is there. It's a reality manufacturers don't care about that, they act like sell only the hardware and after that, they wash their hands. At least Samsung continue to support the Galaxy S which will have GB within weeks and in the meantime we have to wait until summer to get our port on O2X. I would never buy Apple, they sell just boring super expensive and locked products, that are still owned by them even after they sell them to you. If you want Android without headaches, the best bet is on the Nexus Phones. But, in the end, you can't have everything I guess...
Wow, that was long... what are we talking about here?

Sounds like the email I recived from LG Sweden this monday which said their devs had started to work on 2.3...... but what...started? Hasn't 2.3 been out for a while??

Try the Nexus S, being just a single core hummingbird processor, the thing flies
LG Optimus 2x have the potential to be faster then the Nexus S, all you need is just to wait until more developers use the phone

MIUI "Vote on Facebook" Collaboration

hey guys. i'm over from the lg optimus one forum.
if you havent noticed, miui is casting a vote on which device they should port MIUI to (the vote can be found here: http://www.facebook.com/questions/217517851641131/?qa_ref=ssp). as you can see, both the optimus 2x and the optimus one are losing to the more popular, higher-end devices.
if you are a fan of miui, then this might be of interest to you. the reason why i am posting this here is because it turns out that you can vote for more than one phone. i believe that if we support each other and cast a vote for both of our phones, we may stand a chance against those other phones. i know that maybe only one device will get it but anything is better than where we stand right now.
if you are not a fan of miui, then please disregard this message (but even if you are not a fan of miui, please support our phones by casting a vote for both of them).
on the other hand, i am also well aware of the fact that you guys already have an unofficial miui port. there are people over at the optimus one forum who are trying to port it but without success so far. if you are perfectly fine with the miui port that you guys have, please consider helping us (the optimus one users) out.
i thought that you guys might understand as we (LG users) are the underdogs to companies such as samsung and motorola

voteddd...

already vote bro..

me 2 lalalala 10 chars

Voted, all Optimus 2X users please spare 15 seconds to vote for Optimus One and Optimus 2X. Thanks

thanks for the support guys! this really means a lot to me as this is the only chance the optimus one can get miui. this is because the optimus one uses an armv6 processor; in the words of another user from my forum:
popdog123 said:
Well i'm back... finally finished my exams and got some time for myself.
But i have a bit of bad news. I've been studying android and how it's build and how it works and i'm afraid this might be an impossible port to make for now. I've looked into the Galaxy 3 port and it's not an actual port. It's just the framework. So it is possible to port apps from the rom but they might not work fully because of incompatible libs.
Now about the libs, they are compiled specifically for a type of processor (in miui case armv7) which have some instructions built in. While armv7 may run armv6 libs it's not possible the other way around. So even if we got the phone to boot, and got the launcher and a few miui apps running it wouldn't be miui.
I see that SWEATTAIMI is still working to complete the port of the framework and i wish him the best of luck but i will have to step down since i am working on other android projects that are more likely to come to an end than this.

Who is to blame?

I start this thread because i am a bit frustrated about the low official support of lg to our optimus black and all the lg devices, so want to discuss with you about something.
I mean, if neither the cyanogenmod team is not yet able to give us a stable cm7 (i know there is a stable version, but we all know that there are still few bugs, i.e video recording), who is to blame? The LG company or maybe the Texas Instrument that doesn't release a proper full code (i.e the multimedia drivers for ics)? how is it possibile that the cyano team can't make the video recording work in a widespread platform like omap3 !?
What i'am trying to say is maybe not all the fault is ascribable to LGE, but maybe the all enviroment around the lg devices development.
What do you think?

No. It is due to LG's relatively small workforce. Look at Samsung's HQ And LG's HQ. Its like world's apart. And, the way LGE builds their products. Lastly, we have a relatively small CM group. So, compared to major companies, EG. HTC & Samsung, we are small.... so, you can expect updates every month or two. As we have low manpower.

For GB, it was LG's fault.
For ICS, we don't know about what LG has made for now, but TI doesn't help as they haven't finished OMAP3 3.0 Kernel.

Hey guy! look this https://twitter.com/LG_Mobile_ (Use Google traductor) they are always talking about ICS for our 2011 devices
They say many things about Optimus 3D and Optimus 2X and only a few things about our Optimus Black :/ hope the better.
They also tell something like the upgrade will be very soon and they tell us when.

will got no support soon

Hello dears,
I write here for the first time in LG 4X forum and I don't want people those who already bought this device to misunderstand me please
the device is really equipped with the latest and fastest hardware at factories,
But..
LG as company is not new, it was (Gold Star) company and replaced the complete ID of the cheap company with Gold Star with LG as new brand.
and the new department decides to get the latest in the market and hit it with the newest electronic weapons as your 4X
I got a past trying with LG devices, with P990 and P999 (G2X) it was really perfect as hardware but as software, it is still with GB v2.3.5 as the final stock ROM from LG, start from v2.2
I don't why LG can't support her devices to the latest software at google android !!!
So the point that I want to reach here is:
Don't expect LG to support your device to the latest ROMs of android, it will stop at 4.1.1 or 4.2 and stop there then you will see the support from MIUI or CM team, but not LG and will face ton's of change log's and (what working) (what is not)
LG is good for short month's of usage but not for long time.
Hope LG support department read this thread and try to support the software teams in the future.
hope you got what I means
Regards

You are very optimistic thinking that reached 4.1 1

I disagree. It looks to me that LG won't even update our 4x to jelly bean.
Lg are bunch of noobs.
To lg - if you are planning to fight with the likes of Samsung/HTC - offer same type of service. Like Unlock tool for the bootloader. Or unlocked boot loader from factory. At least that way we can make our own way into future updates...
I hate myself for buying a lg! Wasn't even aware of locked boot loader. Next time I will sniff around1000 times before deciding to buy a lg.

How many updates to the firmware has there been since the phone was released? And where are the fix lists?

there are 10a to 10f firmware and i think the update only to solve the problem and i think there will be no update because they think they do a good job...... if they reliaze it!!

Fixes are fine by my book, ICS is already a very good platform to use. Sure, JB brings more improvements but it is game changing compared to GB to ICS.
Can you show me the fix list? I've searched a lot on google but no one seems to have it..

Perhaps we can hope that lg will upgrade the 4x hd directly to Key Lime, if the rumors about a sonn-to-come Optimus Nexus are true...

1. LG Optimus Nexus is not a rumor, but true
2. Yeah, maybe they're working about something (i'm f*ckin optimistic)

Although, LG's software support is crap, i'd still choose their Hardware over HTC's. And, just being chose by Google as the manufacturer for their new flagship device...LG will hopefully get more love by devs. The Optimus 4x HD is a true beast, it's a shame that LG won't unleash its true capabilities. I've been contemplating in whether to get an O4x HD (price is soooo cheap) or just wait for the LG Nexus G (which is most likely what im guna do). Either way, my next phone will be an LG. For some reason, i've becomed very bored with Samsungs, especially with my S3.

LG is going to make a conference on 24-25 oct, hope we'll get some infos about updates
http://lgepr.lge.com/CommonEmailPopup.laf?pageFlag=Notice&sendId=2698*

LG need to much time, they will update.

Let's face it - LG sucks, really

So we always had a competitor - HTC One X. HTC released official Android 4.2.2 update with updated Sense 5.0 UI. What we will get? Nothing. Thank you LG once again. Last LG phone ever for me. Optimus 4X HD old phone? What about One X?

I knew from the beginning that LG sucks on supporting because I already bought the LG 2x in the past, poorly supported device but, the great performance and build quality brings me back to LG, ginger bread on LG 2x worked spool great and lagless that I was amazed every time I use the phone, now on my 4x I 100 Times more amazed, LG stock roms are almost perfect, y can get 10 hours of battery and only train by 8% and that's great, also the materials used on the phone are great and the performance is very cool, kicking the ass of the galaxy for example, on antutu we get like 1000 points more on cpu and floating cpu point that galaxy s3 and with a custom kernel a modifying the stock gpu frequency we can get a little more score on gpu too... so, there's it nothing that we can do in 4.2.2 that we cannot do in 4.1.2...

for stock android, not much difference. but for lg ui, i would love the new camera interface from 4.2 in optimus g2, and all the new features from the new lg ui version. we seems to forgot that a new android version from the manufacturers is not at all the same as android update, 4.1-4.2 doesn't bring much on the stock version, but for the manufacturers update, there will be a lot of new things. you might call it gimmick features, but that is based on YOUR preferences.
see for yourself what the new version of LG interface will bring. I WANT THAT.. i don't care about the new lockscreen or the multiuser that stock android 4.2 brings.

i am fighting this since i have mi LG 2X...

My point of this post starts at 1:24
when you see others have, you want it too, even if you are in a different situation. If that thing didn't exist in the first place, you wouldn't think of making a noise to have it.

that video remember me to my dogs... my two dogs was the best friends, one was a aleman pastor, and the other was a rottweiler, both played togeter since kids, one day my mom bought the rottweiler a chain, after that the pastor was angry with the rottweiler... extrange? yes... and the rottweiler used to walk slower in front of the pastor like showing his new chain, that makes the pastor more and more anger... the problem was ended when i bought the same chain to the pastor too... Best friends again...
