Never heard of modaco before. Are his ROMs good?
I was initially wondering if I should get this device as it seems like there is lack of developers' support.
With support from paul, I am sure we can get a satisfactory custom rom.
Looks like I can order mine now.

Yeah Paul at Modaco is talented.... I have used his custom ROMs before on my Hero, must say i was very impressed! Hope the VillainROM team also get involved with this phone!
He has also done some excellent work on the Nexus 1. He was the first to bring out a Sense Rom for it.

Yeah ive been using VillainRom for my Hero for over a year now still keeps up with my girlfriends "stock" SGS! Pulser is the man, hes been saying how he doesnt like LG based on previous phones etc.... but i just hope he see's sense and starts developing for this monstor!
Yes!
Personally the LG 2X is the only interesting phone which is coming out now.
Galaxy S II -- too big
Desire S -- lol
Only the Motorola Atrix might be interesting as well, but the 2X seems to have better materials used.
With Paul on the phone, i'm sure the phone will get a great dev phone and a lot of custom roms.. (ok, i only hope..)
Just waiting for the first Gingerbread 2.3 ROM running on the 2X and i'll get one.
Good bye Desire (even it is one of the best phones i've ever had)
@Atomicman
i tested the sgs2 at the cebit few days ago and i was shocked how laggy this thing was.
maybe samsung will fix it until the official release but after that experience i'm 100% going with the optimus2x

Also thought long about that, and chose the O2X.
As you say:
SGS2 - too big
Desire S - with dual-core would be cool, but isn't
Atrix - locked bootloader is a shame
Just hope that community support will bring O2X long life!
i just got mine LG Optimus 2x and WAUW!!!
LG has done a really good job, I'm so impressed with the speed of this device - no buggyness and no laggyness
The stock is very nice although it's 2.2.1..
But I want custom ROMs NOW!!!

Paul, with the Acer Liquid, buyed it and selled it like a month later for a nexus one (if I remember well). So we must "pray" that he will not buy a Galaxy S2 or something as soon as it comes available

Yep, I remember that.
The difference is that Liquid was quite cheap device, I guess this time it won't be so

Was the same with galaxy s... started kitchen and then abandoned it.
Galaxy s2 and s3 have all put their hands on the new 4.1.2 beta, waiting anxiously now for my i9305 international version. anyone has update on this? :fingers-crossed:
Doubt this will happen, they are just too different from what I remember in prior discussions.
We should have something pretty soon for our phones tbh.
On another note, I have been using it on my 9300 for a few days and it seems a great improvent, it is good on battery, there are lots of little improvements including the Samsung Keyboard where the word appears automatically as you type. Multi WIndow is great although not sure how much I will use it, still it is there if I want it!
Really looking forward to 4.1.2 coming over to the 9305.
I have played around with it. The only issue I am having is with the baseband and imei not being detected. Have tried a few things to fix it but am stuck at the moment with what else to try. Other than that it boots, has root and everything else works.

Chiming in here to say that I have been working on this too. But you knew that from our discussions via PM.
I am wondering if we might be able to get the ball rolling further on this for our devices. There are considerable differences between these devices but that shouldn't stop us.:fingers-crossed:
On another note I am thinking the AOSP is the secret to bringing more popularity to this device seems alot of people are waiting for this and keep asking for this,,, So i am thinking of porting an AOSP rom for fun and chucking it in for a variety
mmm not sure about that, I think the new 4.1.2 features outweigh a AOSP release; MultiWindow probably beign the biggest so as soon as 4.1.2 hits here I think there will be some very happy people.
Personally, I use lots of the other features like Allshare Cast, Dual View etc... which I believe (not positive though) would be lost with an AOSP build.
Still happy to try it out is you manage to port it over!
yes i would not use the AOSP but CM has a MASSIVE fan base and so does AOSP... But I agree with you 4.1.2 is much better but even this version has now been merged with AOSP in the i9300 forum lool we need more devs here its too hard to keep up with little help
Devs or no Devs i am still very happy with this device and would not swap it back with the one i had before, which i gave to my mother as a gift But yehh If i really wanted too i can swap it .. But no thanks
More like a rage, than a question, but... why is there no one trying to port 4.2.2 for ours x8?
Many lower spec phones have a port, wich to be fair, do have bugs, but at least have it. What happened to the x8 dev scene? Many thanks to nAa for keeping x8 alive, but is there no one else that can scratch the surface of 4.2.2? Plus with the .32 kernel aren't things supposed to be fair easily in porting?
I see nAa wrote 4.1.0 is coming, but... i sure would want 4.2.2 for my baby

This is a developer forum, if you want it, try to make it, if you can't, then don't complain about it.
Go back to eclair if you are not satisfied with the development so far.

I must admit that I am working on that but I'd prefer you to be patient in this area
For experience of 4.2.2 we need many requirements, ex:
unlocked BL
A new kernel (for bugless roms)
Enough knowledge for cooking kernel(we need to partition internal memory{for heavy 4.2.2} which was not necessary on gb)
Jtag tools (cooking kernel is a sensitive progress & hard bricks is so regular)
& just some developers have the knowledge & tools for cooking
#& I'm pretty sure if a recognized developer cook that kernel there will be a lot of roms for working on it

How funny, the guy that trolls everyone about not using the search button, failed to use it. The only BS talking comes from you my friend by playing smartass and looking dumb at the end.

guys lets not start a flame war here.
@op
learn to wait.
naa himself said that he is working to release android version 4.x for our device..
so it's possible that we might get 4.2..
Well I must say I'm surprised that they've got it working on such a POS phone..
I don't think the experience would be up to much though with so little ram and microsoft's (LG) cheapo hardware ideology..

Judging from changelog, development seems a tad easier over the fence. Kernel version is up to 2.6.35.
I've been seeing a lot of rumors going around about a Google experience One that will run stock Android. If this were to come out, would it make a big difference in the development efforts of CM10.1 on our phone?
Having manufacturer support when it comes to software, especially Vanilla, is always a good thing for development.
Means that they would do most if not all of the coding necesarry to get everything on the up and up
Yes, it would help immensely. Especially if they released source code.
Cm10 is bad on this phone very bad... N slow

no ****, it is hard to make an AOSP-based ROM when you don't have the source code to base it on
and eedyhe
It would help IMMENSELY to have an official Vanilla Android rom. The CM team could use that as a base for a proper CM 10.1 rom for the Sprint HTC One.
Cm builds from the source then adds it's mods. Vanilla is its base. It sets the aosp bar for most devices.

I can only hope/wish/pray they find a way to use the ultra pixel camera/zoe/image sense/boom sound/IR Blaster etc..Because those "features" are what make this phone what it is..AOSP On a chunk of Aluminium will be sorta boring.
Maybe they'll re do the camera for the Google experience version,maybe 13MP?Can't wait to see what they are going to do
Since Android 4.4 has low system requirements, do you think anyone will make a rom for our device?
as for NEON, Tonyp managed to make 4.3 work so I'm guessing it is possible with 4.4?
KittKatt would be awesome!
I sure hope someone will... I think it might run a lot better than jellybean versions considering the memory requirements... I just hope that not too much has changed 'under the hood' to make it work with current drivers. LG will never release new drivers.
To anyone who tries: Good luck and well done!!
Tonyp's 2 cents about kitkat
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...postcount=1086
this is a main topic on o2x forum... use a search a bit before opening a new thread
Well, we hope so...if pengus77 and tonyp doesn't hit a roadblock with android 4.4 sources. Well be satisfied with we have right now. Android 4.3 for our phones is doing great.
Wrong thread.
Really hope for a 4.4 ROM that would be GREAT
Out there are alredy custom AOSP roms on the nexus 4 i think and the HTC one i read that on google
But i reckon it will be possible for most devices with cyanogenmod
You all do realize that this ain't such an easy thing to accomplish? Aside the "low memory requirement" that 4.4 offers, it is still a long shot. First of all, there's the thing with the drivers that we are stuck on since android 4.0, LG's final update. tonyp and pengus have done an amazing job regarding this, but as all of you might know, tony is upgrading. I'm not sure if to the N5 or Z1Mini, but regardless in one of his posts on the "The Rom" thread he stated that he yet does not know what to do with his love-hate o2x. Second of all, even cyanogenmod stated that they won't be updating older devices regardless of the 512mb requirement. Then there's NEON and the fact that even Google abandoned our Tegra. Other than that, I am more than satisfied with his 10.2 rom, and I'm currently using it as a daily driver. Other than that, install linux, sync repos and cook roms. This community has yet to die. Oh, or theme. Theming works well.
I may be new to the O2X community, but I read a lot.

I would love to learn how to code / cook ROMs but from what I've worked out you need to have a dedicated machine for the job?

Well, you do at least need a machine with linux dual boot. Cooking is far easier today than it was just a few years ago, I mean tony has a tutorial for cooking your own CM10 build, but yeah, it all depends on linux. There's a lot to download, also (I remember AOSP sources from 4.0 to be like 2 gigs. Or was it 2.3? Don't know, it was for the Optimus GT540 some time ago). All in all, it does take time, patience and some luck. I mean, every recognized contributor earned the title simply by trying. Try, fail, but don't brick and you'll do it
Issue is Linux has never worked well for me (force closes everyware! Which version would you recommend?
