Hello, doesn't seem like anyone has brought this up, but have any of you guys seen that
there's an LG event being held on the 19th? Apparently they're going to announce a new quadcore phone,
but has anyone overlooked the fact that they might announce/release the official ICS rom for our (intl) 2x?
We know that they're supposed to release ICS before the end of the month, could this be it?
I saw this at least,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31544349&postcount=5038
is every news will now have its own thread in general section? If LG release new TV, maybe they will launch ICS for O2X?
boring..
I don't think LG would release ICS for our device at this event
On the one hand, an ICS upgrade at this event would be good PR for LG, but on the other hand they want to sell new devices and don't want the customers to buy old cheap devices because of the update.
We do not know...

Hi Rayman96, the OP was simply stating that LG were having a press meeting for the release of a new phone. Why is it a stretch to think they may perhaps announce software updates for existing handsets at the same time? The press will be there, so it makes sense.
This post was also made in the general section, exactly where it should be. I found your post useless, childish and boring to boot.
I would normally sign off by saying "Have fun". But in your case, that might be asking too much. Anil
Think about LG's PR.
When announcing new phone, I would totally focus on this.
And it was said by hundreds of times that 30 Sept will probably be This day.
It's really boring, because our O2X forum slowly becoming LG forum. To discuss about anything of ICS related thing we have right sticked thread.
If you understand my findings and opinion, you probably stand my side.
No offense op, just because your post is same as one mentioned in main thread about LG/ICS/everything

Hi Rayman96, LG aren't Apple. Apple can release one device and the world goes nuts. LG on the other hand need all the help they can get making a PR dent.
I for one will never buy a non Google NEXUS device, I currently have a Galaxy NEXUS. Once LG deliver ICS, I will update the phone and sell it. But I will never buy another LG device again. Simply because LG aren't up to speed when it comes to software. Great hardware, software not so much.
Ultimately, there are going to be duplicate threads and information. O2X users have been waiting a damn long time for ICS. So any bit of info can seem crucial, and worthy of sharing. It's simply kinder for everyone to cut each other some slack. It just makes life easier.
I hope LG do release ICS by the end of the month. So the next owner of my O2X has some of the new OS innovations that Google has delivered.
Have fun. Anil

Two companies you mentioned are different, but both of them want to earn money.
This isn't only problem of phone because it is old, and its production process stopped, but even the tegra2 platform problem. Tegra2 in my opinion was something to attract people to nVidia. Then nVidia released tegra3 hitting android market with flag phones powered by this chip.
Tegra2 in nVidia opinion isn't now important, because company took a piece of market. So, if they want to earn money fluent, they have to made you buy new phone to have goodies of ICS.
So LG will release ICS by announcing a news about it to don't attract much people instead of making an event.
But let's calm down and wait.
Companies are really strange creations

Hi Anil!
It's good to see you have learned the expression "cut some slack", I don't think you were aware of it a few months back... or if you were, maybe you didn't like it so much?...
Keep it up.
I really hate my O2X and said never LG again. Now the Optimus G has me interested.... anyone else?

I find this very curious, since January, I have been very vocal on the Samsung USA Facebook page as well as Twitter about the missing Froyo update. Today I went to check the Facebook page to find that somehow I had lost the ability to post anything.. shortly thereafter, I realized that I no longer "liked" the Samsung USA page. I did not do that myself, Samsung must have had that done (reported me for spamming/abuse?). Perusing the wall posts, I notice a distinct lack of people complaining about the 2.2 update.
I was not abusive, I did not swear or use foul language in any of my posts on that wall. I cracked a few jokes, sure, but nothing that could have been considered over-the-top. In fact, I waited until AFTER the promised "by the end of the year" deadline (promised to me on Twitter by @GalaxySSupport) to even being posting any complaints.
Is this Samsung's damage-control strategy moving forward? To try to stifle public outcry by booting us off of your pages and deleting our posts?

You know this is very interesting as when trying to give the Vibrant a bad review (for the software not the hardware) on their website it will tell you that they are looking for different type of reviews and won't post the bad one.

thats insane. i'm really starting to dislike the samsung brand. buying a new tv soon too to replace my 5 year old samsung
Unless samsung comes out with something AMAZING (honeycomb for my Epic) to make up for all their lack with the galaxy S line, I will never buy another samsung product again.
SO MANY of my tech friends said "samsung does not support their phones, YOU WILL BE UPSET"
As I sit here the audio out ports on both my car and desk docks DO NOT WORK because they haven't released a year old 2.2 froyo.
Looks like my tech friends were right. The only reason my gps works is because of the hard working dev's here......and I have paid them for their work! I feel horrible for all the stock users in the world who have a **** gps thanks to samsung.

Same happened to me with the Captivate on AT&T's website. Except mine was all hardware complaints.
My hardware is perfect
But sadly software is not! Unless they move away from carrier based updates this will be my last Samsung or Android based phone.
Remember Samsung when my phone crashes due to poor or out of date software or can't download something for the same reason I don't see the 3 mobile logo all I see is the Samsung logo.
This is all happening too close to the release of the Galaxy S 2 launch!

Man, same thing happened to me w/ my Epic review. I was pretty honest that i loved the hardware but the software needed updating. Got a message saying my review did not match what they were looking for and was rejected. Pretty easy to have devices w/ 4 and 5 star aggregate scores on your website if you're controlling which reviews you accept samsung.
You guys should take some screenshots of this and send it around to sites like engadget. The more bad press we can get for samsung, the faster we see updates. Worked for the t-mobile guys after they very publicly accused samsung of holding back the update to sell their newer phone.
Hi Guys,
I am also a samsung owner, not the galaxy S series but a phone called the Samsung Spica i5700; not supported by Samsung anymore after they claimed the hardware was not capable to run Android 2.2 froyo, ehh! the devs over at samdroid have ported AOSP and CM builds of 2.2 froyo onto it and are as of now porting AOSP and CM of GB.
the point I have is samsung is pathetic in customer support, all they want is to sell the customers to buy there new devices, and when the samsung #nevergain hashtag was started by an xda member and the hashtag went BOOM into samsung's face they are here to regain some respect, for that they need to prove a point to us, we have already proven them wrong.
I think the way to froyo, is to keep the heat up till they break down and beg to give source away.
everyone should retweet this:

same here, never hit the web in their eyes
What can I say that has not been said more eloquently by others.
GPS + Froyo for Captivate Update please. As that would make the phone much more desirable and usable, The immediate next thing I am going to do is Ebay that Piece Of S***. Seriously Never going to touch a samsung phone even with a barge pole.
Thank you Samsung for making the Galaxy S brand a pinnacle for quality, support and customer satisfaction.
P.S. I know this has been posted before and does not add ANYTHING, but had to vent.
What the hell is samsungjohn discussing with the xda people? I mean it's been fully 5 days now and absolutely nothing of substance has emerged. What is taking so long? I mean seriously, can someone give an update or something?
Im not really sure theres much to discuss... but yeah, IF the 'hello' part 2 posts WERE the big announcement, it would be nice if the XDA powers that be just posted 'Sorry, thats really all he had to say, he wants to meet devs at a music festival, thats it... he is gone now, go about your business'. I just really hope he doesnt think an 'open dialogue' is a HUGE announcement, and actually has something WE care about. He may just think that was huge because, well its his thing... his job... to us its like, yeah, another source for cut n paste responses... great... oh and one not on FB or Twitter! How convenient!
Whoa! Did this just get moved to 'off topic'???
Wow... its like Samsung Mobile with negative comments!
whatever... Guess its not technically about a phone.

Thanks for the info. Possibly this thread will be closed soon, but anyway, LG posted 3rd Quarter 2012 for ICS P970. That's just disgusting. Most of us maybe don't even have the phone for the "3rd Quarter 2012" (which maybe in the real world is 2013-2014 Christmas, if they don't stop development "for technical reasons like few RAM or something".
We are lucky we finally had Cyanogenmod development. Even if CM9 takes long, it will come months before LG official ICS.

I don't get it. Someone can explain that?
absolutely absurd and unneeded
lemme get this straight....we all are disappointed with what happened.
u can blame LG, u can curse TI, but that won't change anything.
this is xda, don't open a thread to cry and curse here ...instead, stand up to what we got, if you got skills, help FOP out. if not, enjoy what you got.
and BTW, the proper notion and practice of all OEM's is supporting a cell for 1 year and for 1 OS upgrade.
since, LG has done both, u really cannot whine about it.
if you want to curse LG, TI, Hades, whosoever, do it in the ICS thread.
this thread will not do ANYTHING (admit it, u officially wanted this hate thread) except making people pour here.
please don't get me wrong, am not trying to pick up on you, but the unnecessary whining is not gonna win us anything. will LG give us the update following the hate comments?? NO!!!! then what's the use??
also, note HTC actually came up with the reason as to why it didn't update the desire HD. though LG might not have the same reason for the update, but it could well have led to the same consequence if LG would have started (if at all) working on our ICS upgrade.
our only hope is TI updatign 3630 and FOP getting the ICS up. let's hope and wish them luck.
regards,
achyut.
P.S. - if you find my post derogatory to your thread, PM me, i'll take it down. thank you.
i totally agree with achyut,
the last months i've seen very childish reactions to LG, not only here but the whole www. (i'm not refering to this topic but in general)
people complaining and over reacting.. not satisfied? just throw away your phone and buy something else.
lg is giving good phones with really good prices.. lg isn't indeed perfect but can you expect a perfect phone for the money you paid?
i'm a very satisfied user, we maybe don't get official ics but who cares??
i get the feeling that a manufacturer is succesfull if it releases new android updates very soon.. if it's not? it's calles the worst manufacturer in the world...
the way i see it:
i got a nice looking phone with good hardware for a very good price.
the great dev's here helped me to upgrade my OB with very good custom roms.
here's atleast one satisfied user!
hmm
but tell me why when all other company can release ice for they phones even now phone that cost half the price of OB
brands that are not very will known are able to release ice on hardware much lower the black can get ice to work smoothly
the Lack of will from Lg to work on Updates is what driving me mad
i will any ways go for FOP when its stable a bit more but why let LG get way Scot free they should know how many its customers dislike them
Actually, I'll prefer staying on Gingerbread than to have a sluggish ICS phone. There are many people complaining because when they got ICS on their phones, it got very slow and the performance is mostly choppy. So, we should be happy LG brought us gingerbread, though unfinished. We could always tweak it to its limits and all be happy

how do you know it's a lack of will? we all know its hard to run a business in these financial hard times.. for example samsung is still selling good so they will have the funds to keep going on with support and development.

Only one question - Is Samsung providing ICS for Galaxy S & SL Having almost same Specs.and one of the highest sold Android Phone ?
Apple cant Ban LG Phones Bcoz LG is not copycat Co. like others. They already launched PRADA first full touch screen ( Capacitive ) phone before the birth of first iphone. LG is one of main parts supplier to Apple.

No point in complaining about this, really. The decision has been made. Time to move on.

I had tight pant so i decided to keep my O2X on my friends Bag . after 2 hours of playing when i come back to take my O2X, it wasn't here! i searched everywhere , every people for my phone but i didn't find it . it was stolen.:crying: This happened before 2 hours of my posting . I am in very frustration right now , it was my favorite phone . I can't hold my tears right now.:crying:
now i don't have optimus 2x , so i don't belong here guys.i am leaving this community . No need ICS right now hah!.(i hope you will get it soon)Hope to buy a good smartphone later but it will be tough cause i am a part timer and have very low income. but i will make sure that it won't be Nvidia.pray for me.

arcee: the star, the galaxy R, and the grand X are completely different devices. different components, different resolutions, different radios, different audio amps,different panel manufacturers, different almost everything. The designs have nothing in common other than being T2
tonyp: so it's either LG or nothing?
arcee: yes
nVidia no more.
I don't know about LG... probably will avoid them if possible.
I know how you feel, still miss my Galaxy S... Took me some time to get the money for it as I'm also a part timer with a low income.

Being sympathetic does not necessarily mean crying. That poor chap lost his phone and is short of money to buy a new one. May you share the same sorrow. May be then you would come to terms with the feeling of loss and the grief associated with it. Might be a petty thing for many of us, but for me, I could just say, don't worry mate, God has better things in store for you.

Another good reason to start crying like that on a forum like this...apparently.
Man, that sucks big time OP. I know how you feel... way back in high school I was in a similar situation twice. I had a feature phone with a colour screen and no camera or other fancy stuff, but at the time it felt so cool to just talk and text from a little handheld gadget. Then one day at the library, I stupidly left it on the table I was sitting at before going to the washroom - of course it was never seen again when I got back. Plus my parents bought it for me which made me feel really angry at myself.
I immediately received a hand-me-down from my dad (this one was a little fancier, Nokia with a VGA camera) and within a few months, it ended up in the washing machine! From that point on I became super careful.
Hope you manage to acquire another phone sometime, ideally a non-LG And let this be a lesson to always keep your phone in your pocket at all times! And if the situation doesn't permit it, lock the phone securely in a locker or car glove compartment or something, or just ask a trustworthy friend to hold it for you.

I've been a long time reader of this forum, since blackberry pearl was the newest hottest phone, but until now have yet to register. I got my turbo a week after release, and i love it...i read all these articles who's getting lollipop and when....If motorola is updating all their old phones from 2012, and us with their flagship phone have yet to get it, and there releasing phones this month with 5.0 on them to INDIA of all places, guys Turbo prolly isnt going to see it for awhile if ever...This phone IMO was like verizons ellipsis tablet, released with one update and no further information lol yeah we all want a bug free OS, but to do a 3 year old phone and not your flagship phone?
( i know no periods)

These threads are tiring.
In that VoLTE is natively supported in 5.1, did you not consider that may be why there was a hold up, because Verizon wanted that?
I'll bet you 1,000.00 dollars we get Lollipop. Are you game? Post your paypal if so. I could use the money from an easily won bet
Edit: And yeah, that India comment was misplaced.
Yeah looks like its confirmed that the 5.1 HD Voice does mean it works with Verzion VoLTE (I wasn't sure based on the screenshot they had). Seems very possible when Motorola learned about this they held off on their 5.01 or whatever with HD Voice added in to just release the version with the code in it already. Which is a good thing. Because had they released 5.0.1 or whatever a couple of weeks ago, you would have people whining for 5.1. Hopefully this means it will hit the Turbo in a short time.
I made a post about the Nexus 6 coming to Verizon with 5.1 already on it and suggested that the DT might be jumping straight to 5.1 around the time the Nexus 6 drops on Verizon. My hit or miss post doesn't seem so irrelevant now. lol

Indeed.
Congrats on your first post FAIL. How could you think the turbo wouldn't get another update that's ludicrous.

Agreed. The phone is still fairly new and considered a current flagship phone for Motorola (Next to the Nexus 6 but that's Google's baby as well so I don't think it can count as Motorola's flagship entirely). Getting back to my point, saying that a flagship phone is not going to get an update to "the latest and greatest in android" is just asking for someone to talk badly about you and even more so a cry for attention. Which is something we don't need.
What I mean by India is a third world country of all places before here where it launched. I hope I am wrong but like my tablet I went into Verizon was was talked to by a salesman to go with this newest device it's a flagship device so I did and the updates are where? I left the Galaxy line with no issues great reception speedy updates... My tablet was the same thing a verizon exclusive updated once and forgotten.
What I'm saying is why update stuff that's old when after two years most people upgrade? My flagship store, I'm there daily to make sure it's running good, clean and people want to come back the old store has a customer base like the old phones they update them when it's time to update them things.

Don't worry about it. It's just kinda tense here sometimes, and we're all kinda surly and curmudgeonly because we seem to be kept in the dark regarding just about everything related to this device. Everyone has or had certain expectations from it and the support that we were expecting by Motorola and/or Verizon, and it's nowhere near as exciting as we'd hoped.

Yeah, I was thinking the exact same thing. I was offended by the "third world country" comment and I'm an Italian American! ?
Not much of an apology...
Anyway I gave up wanting lollipop I am hoping Verizon and Motorola scrap the droid and unlock the bootloader

Seriously!?! INDIA is one of the powerful economies right now...!! Third world country? Seriously? Watch your words man... I am not saying this just cus I am an INDIAN n I m proud of it, but just being born in a country doesn't give you the rights to think less of other places.... Country's and states are just imaginary lines that MAN drew on a piece of paper... We are all born equal, nothing gives u the right to enjoy something more n for someone else to do less, just cus they are born somewhere else... OK to make things clear, giving examples from the tech world itself...
1) Sundar Pichai, is an Indian businessman and a Senior Vice President at Google, where he oversees Android, Chrome, and Google Apps.
2) Punit Soni- the Guy who's Google Plus account people used to Flood asking for Motorola Updates? VP at Motorola.
3)One in every 3 Apple engineers is Indian
4)36% of scientists at NASA are Indians
U can google any of that to check for its credibility... I just wanted to prove India or Indians are no less... Please broaden ur mindset!

Are you saying you are better than someone else. Those are some pretty bold brags about your superiority as a race?

If you had actually read n comprehend what I wrote you'd have a different opinion.

I take things wrong all the time, and I too did not get that from his reply.
I'd say he said we are all on equal footing. Though I might question some Indian coding I've seen

So now I am ignorant compared to your vast Indian intellect? I can't read or comprehend english?
It's obvious we will get lollipop and now that 5.1 was released looks like that's what Motorola was waiting for and or the nexus 6 coming soon to vzw. Patience is a virtue and now that we have about 5 months now without lollipop then let's keep waiting. Better having a less bugs version than getting a rushed update of 5.0.1 or 5.0.2
