The positive thing is that LG is almost running out of letters for their V20 GB releases, now only u v w x y z. Almost V30....ICS? (froyo was V10x)
When the letters inevitably runs out it may be the start of the symbols era::laugh::laugh:

For ICS i have the feeling that lg may copy from CM and use v40 instead of v30 (it's only my opinion)...
Returning on topic, some people suggested (Hope dies last) that may be the a preparation for the big ics jump... But i'm very skeptical about it...
(i know that my english is sh*t)
I think ICS for o2x is still far coz they would not still work on GB (v20t?) if they were to release ICS soon
still they are releasing gb 2.3.4 at least they should have to update their version from 2.3,4 to 2.3.7

Hm, why should they have done it? Only to have the latest 2.3 Android version, or is there a solid reason why you're asking that?
2.3.3 brought us dual core improvements, 2.3.4 the improved Gtalk (voice + video calling).
2.3.5 to 2.3.7 are mainly updates/bugfixes for the Nexus S (and AOSP apps like camera). There's no real need in adapting these - and as there's always the possibility to break other things by a version bump I can understand the decision to stay on 2.3.4.

No they have to make GB perfect which almost is before going to ICS otherwise ppl will complain neither stable gb they've to use nor stable ICS, as early ICS build are supposed to have bugs
And after making gb perfect they will merge their latest gb changes directly to ics so less work for them
Sent from my LG-P990 using Tapatalk
If LG wants to perfect GB for releasing an update to ICS, we can wait an extremely long time...sometime around 2250...
They also can start this way v21a,v21b...
So we can keep GB 4ever

Why do the devs need for a AOSP a leaked Gingerbread before?
I thought the AOSP is compiled directly out of the source code?
we'll just need the drivers etc... cm might come soon
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
AOSP gingerbread only includes drivers for Google developer phones. LG 2x is obviously not one of them so you will need to find drivers that work on gingerbread first, drivers from froyo builds may or may not work and gingerbread drivers will only come after official gingerbread Rom is released.
I'm sure when the G2X gets vanilla gingerbread in may for t-mo us itll be ported over for you optimus 2x users

This is the only thing i miss, except the hard-buttons (well, there is no alternative with either..)
Too bad the trademark that the P990 has gives us advantage on OEM drivers from the 2.3 rom package.
Doesn't anyone have some good contacts inside LG to push the drivers for 2.3 a developers way?
Interesting, that is where we vibrant folks are stuck at...gps drivers from Samsung !

still 2.6.32.9 kernel according to the picture
so its the same bastardized bullsh** like the G2x ...
well done LG, like selling a Windows 7 themed Windows 95 ~.~
I aint so sure about that. That kernel should contain all the functions GB need. Correct me if I'm wrong
Sent from my LG-P990 using Tapatalk
As long as you stay with the stock rom, it doesn't make any difference at all I think. If you want to create/hack something else it would have been better with a newer kernel version. Nvidia cleaned up and standardized lots of stuff in their 2.6.36 version so it would have made it a lot easier to modify for proper usb/bluetooth/etc support.

Arcee called the G2x Gingerbread bastardized, because it is simply Gingerbread hacked around Froyo drivers and user space. It may run and look like Gingerbread, but lots of benefits which should be introduced with gingerbread will be left out.
Like I said, Its like running Windows 7 with hacked XP drivers.

agree with you, you'll miss a lot like better battery management, more i/o scheduler, maybe new cpu governor except performance/powersave, something like that will be offering with new kernel... offcourse LG can patch this feature to existing feature, i think that will more not cost effective because there maybe some pre requisite that need to be match..
will cyanogenmod and miui profit from the upcoming release?

any news on c version for cm7?
2.3.7 was out on September 20 -- why nothing about it here? Anyone tried it already?
P.S. I am not happy with my 2.3.4, XXJVP at all. It hangs, com.adroid.phone keeps crashing, phone is not much responsive and it all gets only worse and worse over the time. Now I am thinking, should I look towards 2.3.7 or should I wait until 4.0 comes? However, I guess 4.0 will come to I9000 with a significant delay, right?
Why not try 2.3.5?

I don't build any illusions regarding Samsung's official releases. They are rather out of scope until Summer 2012 ;-) No joke, SAMSUNG sux big big big time on rolling out updates.
My concern are ROMs that are created by community heros. When'd you expect such?

I agree to some of your point but telling that samsung sucks in update is incorrect.Galaxy S has got updates more frequenty than any other android phone.We already have 2.3.5 leaked stock firmware and in comming days u will some 2.3.6 updates as well.Comming to other brands,take example of htc,they are still on 2.3.4.Motorola donot give more than 1 update to phones and forget about LG(they think that customers must be deprived of updated,so that they can ultimatly sell thier mobile industry)

I think we will have to use CM7 to get a taste of 2.3.7...
OK, and what are your bets about availability date for ICS on I9000 ?
(unofficially of course, there is no much sense to discuss official one)
UPDATE: OK, I'll try CM7 with its 2.3.7 and that's it. It will probably heal my SGS for next months ...or will brick it
After being hesitant for a while ( losing the whole samsung apps/feel ) ive finally made the jump to CM7. I must say its really stable and smooth, its packed with lots of options and tweaks .. so far im simply loving it. I think my search for the best custom ROM is done .
Btw, Cyanogen mod 7.1 is out for the i9000, which is considered as the first "stable" version to run on the i9000.
Also, im pretty sure cyanogen will get us ICS way before Samsung does.
I cannot really bet but after Nexus s recived ICS then it will hardly take 15-30 days for devlopers to port ICS to galaxy s because both nexus s and galaxy s is running same hardware except camera chip.

Well from what I understand, manufacturers are not required to release android updates to devices which are older than 18months. Anyone know the exact launch date of the sgs? So I guess it depends what the age of the sgs is by the time ICS is released. Even if we don't get the official ICS, I'm not so sure whether we will get it through cyanogen due to the sgs ram limitation. From 2.1 to 2.3 the average amount of free ram on the sgs has come down quite a lot, to a point where through average use you can end up in a situation with only 30mb free ram (depending on your rom and kernel and what apps and Widgets you use) after a days use. ICS will obviously have even higher memory demands than gingerbread, so the ICS experience on a sgs if it is provided unnofically by cyangoen may not be very smooth and user friendly.
That's just my opinion though, I'm no expert! And obviously I'd love for us to get ICS on the sgs

The most stable version I experienced till now is XXJPY. I'm using it for more than 2 months with no problem.

isn't that a version tailored for Asia?..
Anyone know an ICS Rom that has HW acceleration? I've tried Nova and Hellfire Sandwich but neither has that. Suggestions. Currently runnign stable CM 7.2.
The ISC drivers that are needed for acceleration are available, but are useless until LG releases some sort of Kernel to work with the drivers to my understanding. They are obligated to release the kernel and other stuff needed for developers to build a Complete and stable rom, but no one knows when. It should be soon tho, my guess 1week-1month maybe even sooner.
Here is the website, not sure if its official or not. As you can see, the kernel currently on the site is for v20(Gingerbread I think) we need v30 which is for ICS
http://code.google.com/p/openstar2x/
Since we don't have the drivers, we can't have hw accelerated roms.. so you'd better wait for lg official update..

@Dimension 2035 Thanks for the explanation. Is it safe to assume that when official ICS for p990 drops (its out for su660) then the dev team will have the kernel they need to work with?
@Byteater Definitely won't ever do an official LG update. When I tried upgrading to official Gingerbread my phone got bricked past recovery, luckily the guys i bought it from sent me a new one and so instead I just flashed CM 7 the next time and it works great... prolly better than official LG ICS when that comes out.

you don't need to upgrade the phone to official ICS. But the official release (with source codes) will help devs to extract drivers and to insert them in cm 10 roms

we have to wait for the sources otherwize we wont know what to do with the binaries, also, 4.0.4 to 4.1.1 didnt suffer such drastic changes as its made obvious by the very small difference from 1 to the other, theyr both 4. something, so theyr almost the same except for some optimizations in jb if i didnt understand wrong. bottom line is, as soon as we get the sources well have a fully working cm10 rom in very little time, drivers are all thats missing since only camera doesnt work properly now...

Let Google release Kit Kat,
then let them release its source,
then let CM start working on nightlies,
let the nightlies stabilise a bit,
Non neon support has been dropped... HOPEFULLY some one using tegra device will manage to port it for us,
then maybe... who knows... depends on the nature of changes too...
Now how do you want the chances, using mathematics or statistics... should I use conditional probability
We only have official ICS, all of jellybean is unofficial...

fingers crossed. Well for those who can't wait for android 4.4 and just want to have a feel of it feel free to download the apks for it.
i dunno if it's true or not, but i read this "One of the key features of the new release is optimizations made to the OS, so as to be able to run smoothly on legacy devices with just 512 MB of RAM." but with that said, i think it will be only custom roms with the Optimus 2X that will give us Android 4.4 bcs i doubt that pre 2011 phone with Android will get updated like LG would give the Optimus 2x, Android 4.4 but i could be wrong...
