I follow you, I think it's safe to say that JB will always be an acronym for jelly bean on android forums.
I think:
+ the skin isn't too heavy.
+ Googlora (googorola? how do people spell that?). Moto should hopefully do better than most with software updates.
+ No hardware buttons to reconfigure
+ Motorola desperately needs some good publicity. A little over a year ago, Moto was the company that released the first major dual core android device (not counting G2X), and was seen as innovative because of webtop. These days, Motorola hardly even enters the conversation.
but,
- The phone was JUST released. I bet we'll see an OTA update or two, or maybe even three, before JB comes around.
- I don't think this will be hugely popular. It COULD be, because it has amazing hardware, and for the subsidized crowd, $99 is a steal. But right now, with such little press, I sorta doubt it. The smaller the user base, the lower it will be on the list of priorities.
- Until bootloader is unlocked, we're can't do it ourselves.
If I had to guess, I would say October or November, but that's just a guess.
I think we can expect to see a JB update much earlier. It really isn't that much different from ICS. I've used CM9 and CM10, I know that they are not official, but the difference isn't too great.
You guys are guessing October/November to get a JB update?
I promise you this update will not come before next spring! Google will do itself a great injustice if it favors Motorola in the least and with such large clients as HTC and Samsung, that's the last thing Google wants to do as it will certainly strain relationships if not end them. Motorola hasn't even upgraded the Atrix 2 with ICS yet and it's been out for what, 9 months? Moto will not jump to the front of the line for updates now that Google owns it, trust that, they may still get JB on the AHD but it's gonna take some time.
Awesome?

Found this today. I believe it is good news for custom roms and we will not have to wait for official updates :good:

Well I just stumbled upon this little nugget of info as I was browsing the LG website for info about shutdowns:

These informations are in danish so here is a rough translate:
When will the P990 get updated to Android 2.3?
LG P990 will get the update to Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) in June-July 2011. More information about the exact date will follow as we near the date.

Thanks for sharing the information.
A bit later than expected compared to others like Motorola, Samsung and HTC. But better late than never, I guess.

Yes, you can definitely count on it!
Cyanogen tweeted himself that his next phone will be the G2x (same device, different software)
now i already july, but still no info for gingerbread ..
You will never get Gingerbread update haha!
Eventually when other devices will be already on Ice Cream.
O2X is the biggest disappointment of the year!
Last indication was September. However they didn't specify what year
gingerbread in septemper. http://translate.google.dk/translate?js=n&prev=_t&hl=da&ie=UTF-8&layout=2&eotf=1&sl=da&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mobilsiden.dk%2Fnyheder%2Flg-gingerbread-til-optimus-2x-i-september%2Clid.16297%2F&act=url

Depends on your point of view.
I bought it to use with CM7, not stock.
The newest 10c stock works great for me. It isn't slow and i got no problems.
I have tried most of the roms and stock is the best for me
I would have expected that most people should know by now that all dates given for any LG updates are FALSE, so please stop posting these messages and just wait.
Its done when its done and in this case its taking much too long (but thats the only thing lg is good at: keeping their customers waiting)

Yeah, i thought it was pretty bunk that he made a "worlds first" out of it when I loaded the bootloaders onto my phone about a full day before he got involved.

You better be getting a slice of that $40 pie he is selling. Honestly, I think that is absolute garbage. This guy is taking advantage of many users offering what should be a donation service because of the work you and others have done.

Now Mobiletechvideos provides a professional grade, top notch technical service. He runs a business and that's his source of income. We text each other for technical advice once in a while. Even if I wanted to, I could not possibly keep up with his workload and do my own job as a hospital electronics technician. We have a deal worked out where he will eventually buy Rebellos a replacement phone via PayPal donations. He's a guy running a business. I look at the business aspect as a downfall of his ability to support himself with technical expertise. All I'm saying is technically its not a worlds first as Android isn't booted and I was running the bootloaders first.
Just wanted to share something.

Lol, like everything else they come out with because they are so useless is that they have no idea, they wont know untill it is released so when we know they know if we don't know then neither do they.
Conclusion....useless company. Worthless customer service.

They are reviewing?
The sources are public more than 5 months now...
Is the next step that they actually decide whether to hire a programmer?
Remember the disaster of the rollout for Gingerbread?
So, why are you surprised that other companies are running ICS already and providing ICS-updates while the promised timeline of LG (2nd quarter 2012 = April,May, June) is running out of time.
Honestly: Are you surprised?
Why they can't set a fixed date for the update?
Really shame LG!
Sent from my Optimus 2X using XDA
as i mentioned in other posts, they (LG) "might" start working (or in this case reviewing) on ICS and not as so many interpreted releasing the rom.
thats how big corporations handle such mathers, with sentences that can put any way "they" want to satisfy the customers and if need be (like most of the time) put them as they want it to be and tell the customer to shut up because they at no point mentioned what "YOU" expected.
They're not going to release ics on any lg device, before the official release of the 4X
They don't want their UI out, not like its good anyway...

This question may be questionable considering I am asking developers, but what is the likelihood that AOSP 4.2.2 will be ported over to the HTC One when it comes out?
Thanks in advance.
It will. Its only a matter of time. End of thread.

100% as soon as kernel source code is available. You didn't ask how stable it is anyways
I want this as well I want to install android paranoid official it's the rom of all roms.
Why bother.you'll lose the camera. Surely one of the selling points of this phone. I love aosp but won't adopt it on this one. It's not worth it. Starting to think this with all HTC phones.the camera app is crap. The one x aosp etc was crap with regards to the camera.
If your not fussed with the camera then yeah aosp all the way.

Just making my way back to the android scene after being on iPhone for a few years. I remember the camera always being a headache to port functionality for in the past. Is it because they never release the libraries for it?
What is the stumbling block that makes it so difficult to make it function?
Stock Android camera app isn't the best... The wheel thing is dumb since your finger blocks some of the options. Paranoid android and the sense camera looks like something I'd really like

It's not about porting camera to make it work. It's about porting the camera features available on sense to AOSP. Like Zoe.

What's that saying about honey, vinegar and bees
not sure why we should care about this.
if you wanted svdo then why buy an s4? the specs were released at least a month in advance.
man.. i really wish i had a custom SGS4 with my avatar on it....
i figure if samsung is watching then i might as well ask
I thought manufactures aren't supposed to post/monitor these sites. Although I'm sure they very well due, I swear I heard that a long time ago. Either way, too funny

I'm sure they monitor them, but it's not smart for them to post on them as they get ripped by someone no matter what they say. Kind of like the example in the OP above. I'm betting that support person will not be reaching out to anyone again anytime soon!
Its a shame really, they used to have developer relations and tried to reach out to the community with samsungjohn. however its just too much for one person and needs a whole team, we had kernel sources, responses from samsung and just a better connection with them.
its when samsung really took off in the rooting community.
I really miss this feature from the sgs3. It's too bad they cheaped out on us

If Sprint's LTE was anywhere as robust as their 3G (which in itself is not saying much) then this would not be much of an issue, but it's not.
Sometimes you wonder why they make such bone-headed decisions. Why couldn't they just leave the SVDO support in there. I doubt they can point to some incompatibility issue with anything like CPU or SoC or physical design etc..
OP is funny?
SVDO exclusion is almost certainly a Sprint decision, as no other phone besides the s3 and ltevo had it, or will have it.
And referencing T-mobile LTE? really? Missed that announcement where their LTE network is magically complete
