Europe JB update, on a North American device? - LG Optimus 4X HD

Are the devices compatible with each other's software or is this a accident waiting to happen?

I can see from your sig that you're canadian. You cannot currently install non-Canadian software. Our model number is P880g, while ALL other 4x are P880. We have no idea whether the software would actually run, because a model-check in the installation process has prevented anyone from actually installing it.

Read last two posts on page that opens: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2134192&page=6
Only firmware available to you for flashing is on this link and ONLY under CANADA section, and ONLY for your operator: http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=15, and because LG official sw update tool wont recognize phone IMEI (i have similar thread with one member in forum, and how to help him), you can only flash with KDZ flash tool (or similar non-offical method), and if you on WINDMOBILE latest software is V10F for you! If you wont Jelly Bean you have to wait your provider to make it available (if ever do)!

Wrong. Canadian baseband might not be compatible with the Euro-open firmware. So the answer would be no if you have the Canadian branded model.

ICS ROM or Official update?

I don't know if I should root my phone and flash an ICS Rom or should I wait for LG to release the official update?
Is it worth the wait? Or can I do both?
P.s. I'm a noob.

Reset date to 2007/1/1

My 2x is one year old and now after battery removal it sets up with 2007/1/1 and gets the update only after it gets online.
Any solution?
I realized it after testing new debug ICS roms and nflash back to GB rom.

It's because you touch one gold contact from battery, the center contact contains date time etc...

Thank you again.
I mean from now on every time I remove the battery the date will be resetted to 2007 before the update via wifi?
Open LG updater, recover phone by imei, then you'll get the latest firmware update available and at the same time your phone will be scanned and repaired. You might have to downgrade baseband before doing this, don't remember it. And you have to re root and flash cwm after the recovery/updater finish

No way.
I flashed bb 10D then launched LG Mobile Tool, selected emergency recovery, inserted imei, it updated to 20S but no firmware update and after battery removal date is always 2007.

Can I Upgrade to JB?

Hi,
I have rooted ICS on my 4x HD. No custom recovery or unlocked boot loader. Is it possible to upgrade to official stock JB? I can't update via OTA, so would flashing the kdz work even though I am rooted? Thanks in advance, I just want to be clear before I go ahead.

You could try. Connect your phone and using that tool try to force an update (somewhere in the upper right menu's). If that method leaves you on ICS, you'll have to flash JB yourself via kdz. Search the forum a bit for more on that.
