If you scrool down the page it says.
For canada at least.
So it may only be in Canada.

Yeah but that's stupid, why in Europe, Asia but not in North America ?
Anyway, if this is the case, Canadians users will always be able to run ICS by custom ROMs, let's hope...

Thread closed
Enough with these threads!! There is an ICS speculation thread, USE IT!

n00b question
what positive things does this update bring to us using CM7.1?
in my experience (I had a moto milestone), the official update to 2.2 was worse than custom roms, heck, we even run GB... so I didn't even bother updating to it.
I hope this time is for real.

Presumably it will help rom devs fix some of the broken aspects
Also can run phone on a non custom rom now which some will like.

[Q]Differences between official LG v20 releases

Hi, I've just bought an OB and my carrier, Telcel-Mexico, has released GB, but many people are complaining in the LG mobile Mexico FB page that this release has many bugs, apparently due to being V20a (LG is only stating it is V20, no suffix). Can anyone describe the differences between V20a, V20n and any other official release? Do you guys know if v20a is in fact buggy?
Thanks in advance.
I don't know if the verison is buggy. But i tried too. My country also has V20a version. I didn't see any bugs. But i saw this. In V10b there were stupid programs of the GSM company which brought the phone to my country. In V10c some of them gone. In v20a none of them exists but there are still some stupid programs that only exists in our rom. the tech guys here install it i guess. And also our V20a doesn't have FM radio. Since v10b we don't have that.
So i flashed V20b from the thread. Only had default crappy Lg apps. i removed them. It's very stable. Has FM radio. Haven't encountered any bug yet. Bu my battery doesn't last a day. The programs i use has a contribution on that too but still... First i thought the a,b,c,n,..x letters are only for dividing, you know "a" for these countries, "n" for those, for language packages an etc.. But now i see the further the letter the better the rom. Not %100 true but %90 true in my opinion.

[Q] Stable Rom for the 2x?

Hi, guys. I have the canadian Lg optimus 2x
tired of the leggy stock 2.3.4 rom. Want to use ICS
Is there any really stable rom I can use?
For this, ( canada is not supported)?

According to the above post, the Canadian O2X is called P999 (G2X). Flashing a P990 ROM will likely cause a brick to your device.

That's not necessarily correct... Canadian O2X may very well be P990hn (you can still get it today from Fido), which works just fine with any P990 ROM. P999 is another model for AWS frequencies used by Wind in Canada.

I am not sure what you mean by "not supported"... True, V30 (either A or B) has not been officially released for Canada (or North America, for that matter), but both versions actually work in Canada. V30B (unlike V30A) doesn't have a Canadian English language option, but US English is still there. I am currently running a clean stock V30B, and I am happy with it. However, I would refrain from recommending a particular ROM, as it's mostly a personal choice...

Do ANY ROMS work with Canadian 4x HD P880G?

I've asked on LG's facebook and they stated there are currently no plans to update the P880g.
What really ticks me off is that, now that the P880 has an officially-unlocked bootloader, any work that was done over the past year to unlock it is now dead. Those efforts could have let us put our own custom ROMs on the phone.
I don't care if LG or the Canadian carriers don't want to put JB on the P880g, but at least unlock the bootloader before abandoning it to obsolescence.

Agreed. LG doesn't care, abandoned it in the Canadian market, only to focus on their optimus G. Too bad because I like LG's designs. Never getting another LG smartphone.
I just found some cause for optimism: LGE Canada stated this in a Facebook comment on May 21:
"Jelly Bean will be available for this device. You can stay updated at: http://www.lg.com/ca_en/support-mobile/lg-LGP880G"
A link to the comment (apologies for being mobile): https://m.facebook.com/LGCanada/posts/10151924019794377?_rdr
This is particularly interesting since before now, LG had been stating there were no plans to release any updates. Something seems to have changed their minds.
Since my P880g is a developer version, I can't receive updates either OTA nor through the LG Suite (they don't accept my IMEI). So I have no way to check the availability of any update, other than checking the KDZ scanner sites. If anyone with a P880g gets a software update, please let us know!

Yes
I ate the full bag of them rolmfao!!!!
Sorry just had to :laugh:
I emailed LG Canada a while back, asking for any more info:
I'd like to know if an update to Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean) will be released for the LG P880G phone. Most other Optimus 4X variants worldwide seem to have the update available, but frustratingly the Canadian variant does not.
Most information found online suggests there is no intention to make the update available, however a statement made by LG Electronics Canada on its Facebook page claims otherwise (https://www.facebook.com/LGCanada/posts/10151924019794377). No new information has come out since, and one is left to wonder whether that statement was in error.
Any clarification would be much appreciated!

What really gets me is that they won't even outright say there will be no update. They're being intentionally vague. And now I have no idea why the earlier Facebook comment stated so clearly that there would be an update... I don't think lying would really be in their best interest.

Maybe as LG are supposed to be releasing another update with unlocked boot for P880G.
