Not intend to troll or anything but I read this and remember the days I paid 450 euros for my optimus 3d waiting for a proper support from LG and as I read I realize this LG had done nothing beside the 24/7 hour spamming on their facebook profile and support pages by hundreds of customers. The 4x has a great price/performance ratio but LG software is just blowing it. They were hated that they were late and ****ty with every android update so far and when they finaly got nice stable ICS they locked the bootloader, what the f uck LG (btw I still dont have it on my phone, and it was announced for q3 2012 ). So, dont get your hopes high and happy spamming.

They can give update everyday for my part but for me I love Android bcz a community and developers can get their hands on and customize it more so I don't get it why they dont just let developers do their thing bcz they bring more live in the phone and they make that phone even more better and they can also earn something from it so imo everybody wins. But probably is bcz of patents and stuff and technology or software that need to be protected and kept secret I guess. I really hope I see custom roms for this phone bcz I sold my One X bcz I love the design of LG over any phone wright now except the Arc but that phone is old already
The whole spirit of Android and Linux is to be open source and customizable. Also most of the developers must have something to start from (except cyanogen, they are starting from scratch) to begin developing. It is almost impossible to build your own ICS ROM without having LG's or Cyanogen already ported. That is why the updates from LG are necessary.

Seriously, my GF has this phone and it eats battery amazingly fast. She's been pestering me to install Cyanogenmod on her 4X (she had it on her Galaxy S1) but I'm finding it hard to explain to her why there's no Cyanogenmod for the 4X yet...

One X is significantly wider than the O4X, making HTC's phone a bit harder to use one-handed.

Again the term "open" is wrongly understood.
Android is indeed "open". It's open to manufacturers, NOT open to end-users!
Manufacturers can customize it, add or substract software and even modify it. But you (and me) as end-users may NOT!
Sure if we hack it then we CAN. But that doesn't mean that LG, or anyone else for that matter, likes it.
There's also a flipside: What if you mess up your device?
Then who's gonna fix it? LG? The store where you bought it? The telco? And provided they find someone who will fix it, must it be under warranty?
By locking the device down they revoke their warranty and put the responsibility on you. You hacked it, you broke it, you messed up, you gonna pay to repair it!
Don't get me wrong. I applaud the efforts done by the end-user community to improve devices. Especially when many manufacturers don't take their responsability to fix some o/t problems they created. But we must understand what "open" really mean. We can't complain to LG, HTC, Sony or Samsung for not letting us do this. In fact I don't understand why this community work closer with manufacturers. Help them solve some of their problems.
For instance has the creator of the LG Notification program contacted LG about this and perhaps pursue them to use that program as a solution to the notification problem on LG-devices? The program is free anyway, so why not ask LG to implement it in every device. Or even improve it too. That way we don't need to hack/root our devices for such trivial things as LG itself can distribute the tool as an update for ALL customers (not just the xda-members).
Just my thought on the matter.

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

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

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??

If they wanted, it would run 2.3.4 already, that´s 100% sure.

No it doesnt do an excellent job - besides the obvious problems with bsod and rebooting which many are facing, it also has a number of other very annoying issues which everyone are effected by and which everyone hopes gets resolved with Gingerbread. Your phone are no different than any other O2x and your phone has exactly the same issues as everyone elses. Just because you may not be experienced enough to recognize these issues, doesnt mean your phone does an excellent job - it only means your standards are less than others.
If we ever do get a properly optimised Gingerbread fixing these issues, then you will perhaps have a better understanding of how this phone should be running, considering the hardware.
Man even if there would be no reason for 2. 3 i just wanna have it , only the custom ginger roms that were gonna have is more than enough as a update reason . Dude we are like frozen atm stuck at optimated stock roms and thers not much left to "optimale "
I too have no bsod or reboots not even once. The only problem i have is poor battery but this is also the case for all android phones. Other than that. Been very happy with my phone and I'm sure gingerbread will make me happier.

The answer is easy... that's because they are LG !!
Try to sell as many as possible
So they spend most of time to promote their products, not spend time for software..
Don't you see? How long they spend for reboot fix...and yet not solve it
But why is it so hard to port android from google to the different phones?
Sent from my LG-P990 using Tapatalk
Too big HW diversity, crapy HW designs, bug-plagued drivers..
From my opinion, they need their own unique.
if the software is the same (standard from google)
the market share would be seized by Samsung, HTC, Sony.
However, LG still lack of professional to solve most of problem that the end users are suffering (like us, freezing/rebooting problem)

'cause each company has to adapt their drivers for each phone. That's why it's hard.
And here is why it take so long : because they all feel forced to add a stupid brand layer (LG Home, LG apps... But that's true with most of the companies).

Hmm... Can't understand that either... Drivers for tegra 2 is made by nvidia right? All LG has to do is add the driver to google's android? Other HW in the phone is not developed by LG either so they will have a driver from the manufactor wont they?
All i see that LG have to do is to develop the awful crapware they ship the phones with. That would perhaps take some time... but 6!! SIX!! months???

2) No sorry there is no ETA on any update for this phone. Not even summer? No.
Their customer service have no idea on what's going on. It's ridiculous quite frankly.

True but by the time they release GB, LG will have a better fone out and then will bypass any updates for old fones.
I never understand why mobile manufactures can make new fones faster than update there software?!. I suppose its about trying to sell more units?.
I think we wont see it this year and by the time we do get the update, we will have quad core processes and better os updates to Android than GB... Its not just LG, but ALL of them that are more interested in bringing out new hardware than to fully support what they have out already. One word... MONEY.
In away, thats why I like what is happening to gaming consoles. Its no longer about bringing a new one out every 2 years (like it used to be) and more into software and developing different ideas to bring new life into gaming.
Just wish hardware manufactures were pushing as hard for there software . Thats the real problem now.

Apple is also doing a great job here.
My guess is that only a fraction of all android users cares about the OS kernels and other tweaks, as example. I was helping my Gf to get a new phone. She wanted a red one, with facebook on it. While i was dropping some easy specs like: multitouch, gb, memory, cpu etc. After a minute she replied,Thats sound cool, but DOES IT HAVE facebook... i think shes avarage phoneuser
So to be honest, why pay engineers to make software to people that doesnt care, when they can push phones to the market and actually make some profit.
I like LG.
they released this amazing piece of electronics and they opened up much more then many other brands (SonyEricsson, Samsung). So just becuause of that im running Gingerbread with oc/uv. So stop nagging, its a great phone and with cyanogen, arcee and many other developers, this has become a monster. We dont need LGs sw, android comunity makes it better.

So if your girlfriend - with her limited knowledge of technology - where to buy this phone she should just root it and throw a custom firmware on it? Do you think that is very likely and consumer like her would do that?
You DO NOT need LG's firmware but 90% of all consumers do. And there is no way you can justify LG's action by doing their work. The product as a whole is not working and just because you like to change parts of it does not excuse this fact.
Still a week and a half to go before June ends so hopefully there will not be another delay. I think last time they said it has been delayed by 3-4 weeks. I'll be happy with a bug free stock phone that just works regardless of whether it is FroYo or GB.

Yes maybe 90% of all consumers are satisfied with THEIR smartphone. Do we need to point out how low LG's market share is in this segment? Do you really think that 90% of Optimus 2x users are satisfied with their phone??
The Optimus 2x freezes without being able to recover without a battery pull. That means every user expecting to receive calls or uses their phone as an alarm will be not be satisfied.
My brother bought this phone (not with my recommondation) and he - like your girlfriend - just expect it to work without going into technical details. He has missed calls and alarms already. It goes without saying that he is NOT satisfied and neither would your GF have been if she had bought this phone. Try and ask if she would be okay with missed calls and alarms.
Are saying this phone is only for the elite of 10% or less who wants to waste their freetime on installing experimental software?
Trentors is absolutely right here, 90% of the LG O2x users are ordinary users who are not satisfied with the current LG stock rom - but they are ordinary users not interested in having to do LG's work and install custom roms with everything this includes.
They have a legitimite demand on LG to provide what LG sold them - a working phone. Not a phone that reboots randomly, freeze randomly, run out of memory randomly, lags in various different situations for various different reasons (all reasons caused by poor programming from LG) - they have a legitimite demand on LG to provide updates to fix this, they have a legitimate demand that it should have been there from the beginning. They are not demanding gingerbread per say because its gingerbread, they are just demanding a properly working stock rom - it just happens that they may look to a gingerbread update as an expected way to get a working stock rom.
Herkuk, you are pissing on all these ordinary users with your statements here - I and the rest of these 90% O2x users dont care how much you want to tinker with custom roms - thats your choise, not ours - we dont care about OC abilities or all the other aspects you feel so much for in custom roms - we just want LG to provide what we paied for - namely a stock rom working the way its supposed to work. Plain and simple.
I do not accept the trend where manufacturers are allowed to release beta products or developer products as final products and then ditch any support in order to release new beta products which also do not work right - just because a group of geeks are happy just to get some new hardware to tinker with.
When I buy any other product I expect it to work - I expect my new car to drive without the wheels falling off or the brakes not working - I expect my new flatscreen TV to be able show a picture everytime I turn it on, not only every other time, and I dont expect it to randomly shutdown or get black screen whenever Im trying to watch a movie.
I dont care if you like LG or not - I dont care for fanboyisme - I demand the same from LG as I demand from any other manufacturer that want to sell me there products. Its not my job (even If I have the abilities) to do LG's work and fix their product.

Seriously??? I think both got fault but I think LG's fault is more serious because the latest Kernal has already been released by Nvidia but don't know why LG is not releasing it with the GB they release with 2x...
Seriously, you bought the first dual core phone in the world with a chipset made by a company who's never been in the phone business before (nvidia) made by a company who's never made high end android phones before (lg) and you expected everything to work flawlessly? Have some patience, lg has announced that they will release ics and nvidia has done a lot more already than I had expected (they are actually communicating with arcee about releasing stuff they don't have to release.
Well it looks like they're finally getting their act in gear, so all is not yet lost.

Agreed. I am slightly hopeful about this turning into a good phone . I just think that both nvidia and lg have fewer android-developers than what would have been optimal. This combined with the fact that they needed to release the device fast has lead to some frustration.
I love the phone.... it has enough power, a beautiful IPS screen and is just the right size for me. It now has Gingerbread and ICS is promised. What's not to like? My missus has the iphone 4s and it was twice the cost I paid for my LG. I wouldn't swap mine for an iphone or any other £500 mobile just yet as it does all that's required and looks to have a rosy future with ICS.

Take a look at SonyEricsson when they first relased Xperia.. First update from Donut to Eclair, it was even worse then LG. And dont forget how they locked Xperia bootloaders, damn people hated that company But now, a year later they actually help you to unlock bootloaders, are pretty quick with updates. And they even made dualtouch to X10, just because people demanded it.
So yes, companys can make 180° turns
So dont throw away your awesome piece of electronic, you are going to regret it.

i saw a g2x forum, and in the ICS project thread Azuscee wrote that CM team has fully working ICS for g2x(which is 2x actually). So i think they have fully working test build for 2x also...so don't worry, we will have CM9 officially.
It's not fully working, the camera is a no-go.
OMG..
Just saw the news from nvidia...
The trouble they would go, not to release the source code, is amazing..
I wonder why
So much frustration and problems with all this .... when I had the N95 8GB, `problem` was only about Garmin and some other small non-essential apps ...
everything else is working well and I had no need to change anything .....
ps,,,, My wife will go crazy because I spend more time with phone
Zorica: Halid , can you please bring me a jacket ?
Halid: Ok Zorica , just to do nandroid restore and flash other kernel ... I fell in fck bootloop
Zorica: Arrrrgggrr .......

So everything is working, except camera, including all features? Even hardware acceleration?
I think so.
LG published their update plan for Jelly Bean.
http://www.lgnewsroom.co.kr/contents/12971
And yes... no word about 4X
If 4X don't get Jelly Bean, it will be my first and last LG phone
I really don't know what to do. Sell my LG? But for the money I'll get, there is no much alternative devices with similar features that I can buy now...
But stay for next 2-3 years with ICS on 4X is no option either. Hardware is ok, but maybe android 4.3 will have really cool features and we will never get it on our devices. It's really frustrating.

IF lg unlocks the bootloader for us, that will not be a problem.
IF lg keeps the bootloader locked and then shows a crappy update plan with no ICS/android 4.3 i will buy a new phone and give this to my friend or something....
Well it this is the case that we will not got JB or more updates, iam gonna get bored in some point... then a new phone or superduper htc HD2 back, and this one starts acting as a bar phone
The reputation of LG was already below zero after they leaved 2X die. Normally, nobody should buy their phones after they do same thing with 4X.. They really should think long time about their crappy marketing strategy.

This has to be an over site. I just got mine so i'm okay with it for now (that will last a couple weeks, lol).
With the Optimus LTE II getting it, it would make no since that we won't.
Just unlock the bootlaoder and XDA will take care of the rest.
LG 4x?

Various sites are reporting no update for the 4x . Anyone buying LG has to be mad.will have to sell mine and and get the nexus.

Yeah, there's no mentioning of the 4X. And that's because it is a korean update plan. As far as I know there is no 4X in korea, so nothing to update. With the LTEII getting JB i'm pretty positive that the 4X will be the next one, at least in Europe.

LG sucks
LG will announce an update for our 4X in Europe because there's no 4Xs in Korea
Made possible by my sexy LG Optimus 4X HD (P880)
I can't see them announcing a 4X JB update in Europe before the new flagship Optimus G is released. They'll be eating into their own sales by promoting an older device.
Be patient, I'm sure the 4X is further down the schedule

Imo i dont mind not getting JB on my 4x. See guys, ics will still be the majority of the android system and app support for it wouldnt disappear until quite sometime later.
And even by the time ics is really becoming obsolete how old do you think your phone will be? There will be new hardware by then or anyone on the general market wouldnt be even using the phone anymore by then.
I'm speaking as a general user who treats a phone more as a personalised, friendly thing more than using it for technology development. I think LG is really doing a good job. How my phone now (ics) is fine. I dont really care about not getting JB on this device.
Looking outside of developers circle, i think majority of smartphone users are still those that has little interest in catching up with technology, and has the same purpose of phone as me, using it as a connection, entertainment, tool.
My 2 cents.
Ps i had used samsung android phone before.
Edit. Enjoy more of your time now. Sometimes certain good things are already what you have now. Just forget about not getting the update for a while and take a brand new look into the beauty.

I currently have an HTC Desire S which I have rooted and booted over and over again, from GB all the way up to Jelly-Bean and back again. I have placed an order for my 4X HD and am collecting it on Saturday. I don't really care if it gets upgrades to JB or beyond - this time I want a fast, nice phone which I can just use - this is why I have gone for this rather than other phones. I will keep my DS for playing with and to get my kicks from when I feel the need to play around. I'm quite sure that LG will provide us with upgrades for a while, but as long as I have a fairly vanilla ICS I will be a happy bunny.
it will be updated .....wait and see

We all hope so. But until now we have only this info where 4X is not mentioned.
What has LG from half year old device with locked bootloader? Can someone explain this behavior? I mean, we all know that using unlock tool will void the warranty and only experienced users will do this. Why not let them do what they want?
This is LG Korea they do not have the Optimus 4X in their country, therefore completely ignore this. xD
