I'm sure there are many Canadians wondering what can be done with their version of the 4X HD (P880G).
I am among them.
If anyone knows what is available for the P880G in terms of Android development, please post it here. Thank you!

Not a lot, or none... P880G don't even have official JB.
The flash programs don't allow to install P880 Roms cause they have a specific target.
There is no way to unlock bootloader in ICS soo, you can't try CM...
Unfortunatly looks that P880G is limited to the official V10b/c/f, ICS.
Maybe in a near future

Thanks a lot. I am assuming this means CM10 and all other custom roms are not available either. I guess I'll just wait it out, or replace this phone soon.

If it's Droid then it's for CDMA. I don't think it's a good idea to try it on Milestone.
This has been repackaged as a ROM. It will not work on the milestone, under any circumstances.
Could a moderator or the OP perhaps re-title this thread in light of the fact that the update in question will not work on a Milestone?

Question is pertaining specifically with the title. It specifically states "DROID" and the question addresses if this will somehow work due to it being signed by motorola.
Perhaps, it will be helpful if there is a developer who can torn the package not to include the radio which is the only difference of milestone to a droid.

The title of this post seems to suggest that we, the Milestone owners, can accomplish this installation and it would somehow invite us to do so.
Motorola signed the Droid firmware to run on a Droid, not a Milestone. There are additional internal hardware differences beyond the radio, and there are software differences that permeate several components of the OS.

If it were so cut and dried, we'd have custom roms by the butt load.
It isn't
I really wish people would stop assuming that life is simple because almost every other android device has custom roms...
The milestone could have custom roms right now and it wouldn't make a difference, because we couldn't load them.
Here is how to update your motorola droid to android 2.2 froyo FRF84B.

Per your request, title has now been changed.
Moved to general since it isn't related to development.
This will not work on Milestone, it is built for Droid which is CDMA. Droid and Milestone are two different devices, they require completely different ROMs. There is no Froyo ROM for Milestone out there yet, neither official nor leaked.
Please be patient.
Thanks
hey
i got a question
is the optimus 2x fully rootet ? can i install custom kernels on it ?
will it get cyanogenmod support ?
No one has proof till this moment that rooting is possible so far, some people say they have done it but nothing explicit, more info at the development section of this LG Optimus 2X forum.

Hey everyone I bricked my brand new optimus 2x I got from fido because I thought it would use the same themes as the p990 on this forum. Is there any way I can recover this?
Bricked ??? With just a theme ???? I think the sentence "bricked" is just too strong !!!!
Whatever... Which ROM do you use ? Just reflash it, and averything should be okay.
Don't you have a cwm backup ???
it's still on the stock rom, I just need someone to give me a stock rom file I believe to reflash. I don't have a backup....
You'll find original O2X firmwares here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1035041
And... May I ask why you don't want to install some custom ROM ? (just curiosity)
O I just didn't feel comfortable doing anything major to my phone yet so I wanted to try a basic theme for now.
I don't see a p990hn there yet so I guess I have to wait till the stock rom gets released?
Well...
If u'r about to flash an original firmware, it's already an high level action.
Moreover, if your phone is actually unusable, you'd better flash a firmware, even if this one is older than your's.
I must confess I switched to custom ROM as soon as I received my O2X, so I'm not confident with original firmwares.
You'll find many tutorials all around the net, or even here (also have a look at modaco's forum).
If I can give you an advice, switch to an alternate rom. Tutorials are clear, and they brings so much power.
As an example, I'm actually running Cyanogenmod, latest nightly build.
Android version is 2.3.5 which the latest one available. You won't find it on officials firmwares.
You can't theme a stock ROM, that's where you went wrong.
ahh that makes sense, I got a replacement phone from fido today since it's only been a day.
I think I'm going to wait until people confirm that the p990HN is the same as the normal p990 before I do anything else.

I've a tutorial to repair a brick p990 and i think that work for p990hn, but it's in italian. Try to translate it with google translate or something like that.. i can't translate it 'cause i'm going to work. Search with google "brick lg dual come riportarlo in vita"
Remember that the tutorial is made for italian firmware, so u must search a firmware for your country.
I hope it helps, tell me if it works.
I have the O2X from Fido. I flashed FR19 and I haven't had any issues.
yea you cannot brick a phone just with a theme! .. install a custom rom like cyanogen or you can download the stock rom too from somewhere in the net!
P990HN and P990 are one and the same.
I have a P990HN from Fido and have been running custom GB roms for months now.
I'm a newbie with lg android, I got a good deal for an unlocked LG thrill so I bought it and now I find out LG won't be supporting Thril with future updates. So I need to flash the KDZ from P920 to P925. I have gone through the forum, still I'm unable to do So. The actual problem is I'm unable to flash the kdz file v21e with the methods told in this site. At the last part the LG software updater creeps up teiing me that I have the Latest Software and Need Not Update.
Please, I need Step by step instruction as I cannot make out what I did wrong.

The Argentinian developer Pzyduck might have the solution though is currently the rough one. It had been developed for Atrix HD and eventually spread among RAZRs. It demands Linux computer as a base and it's not clearly indicated whether it works with RAZRI though instruction is published in RAZRI thread: http://www.grupoandroid.com/topic/71012-root-exploit-on-jelly-bean-root-with-locked-bootloader/
Odds are that the solution is suitable for all RAZRs. The similarity with Motofail2go is obvious: both had been developed for Atrix and later transmitted to RAZRs without problem and regardless of ARM or I processor...
Hope that it could be triggered from Windows one day...
That's really close...that could be done soon on Windows! :victory:
I like my RAZR i a lot, but the UI and boring sounds are killing me. I cannot wait to root and chop it into pieces. I have unlocked the bootloaders of previous phones, but there are so many bricked devices around here and not enough RAZR i owners to help out...too risky for me! I will wait for a locked bootloader solution for now. That other thread looks promising...
Oh, I'll wait for it too.
Maybe it is close, if he got it working all perfectly on linux, maybe someone can make it compatible with Razr i and Windows.
Hope someone get it working!
