I have sent an email to Lg about Key Lime Pie upgrade policy on P880, an operator has answered me that they don't know when Optimus 4X HD will be upgraded to Key Lime Pie and actually the OS debut has been postponed...
According to you, this mean that we could hope that Lg a day will release Key Lime Pie? :fingers-crossed:
I think that if the users of this smartpone, shows interest in the new OS and put pressure on Lg about upgrade there is a good chance to get official Android 5.0
Wait a moment, I have to ask my glass sphere... I think that nobody knows that we will receive any update.

Users already put pressure on LG for JB and it came so "good" that everybody wanted to go back to ICS. Even JB leak was better than official JB. In my opinion it's better not to make any update than making something as "good" as this JB.
Plus, by the time they agree to make new update and manage to make it you will buy new phone because it will be in 2-3 years from now.
Next Android will be 4.3 Jelly Bean, not 5.0 KLP..
I think we were lucky LG upgraded the 4x to 4.1 jellybean doubt we will even get official android 4.2 JB upgrade, so android Keylimepie is defiantly not going to come to our devices unfortunately.
Guys!!! seriously you need KLP officially? we have cynogenmod support. Though official support sucks can't u get that even now? lg can never update there products how they planned I am confident we get awesome KLP support from XDA
Developer's community.

Optimus G is really similar to 4X HD in terms of speech, Galaxy SIII that is the parallel Samsung alternative and is outclassed by Galaxy S4 will receive Key Lime... Why you find this so absurd?
Surely LG support isn't that special but you have to remember that Optimus 2X has received official ICS (android 4.0.4) from the original Froyo(2.0).

Optimus 4X came with ICS on the day-one and Jelly Bean is a minor upgrade of ICS in terms of SDK (despite the abyssal difference between 2.0 and ICS)

First of all: LG have to update JB to work as should be!

Is there any OEM that supports its devices beyond the 1 year margin? No, nexus devices dont count.
I doubt sammy will update its S3 to KLP either.If you guys were to go after each OEM you would find out that all of them have the same issues.
Sony: Quality, Warranty, Support issues
LG: Same as above

Yeah, to them, money is the most important - customer service and all that is secondary.
It's sad but true - next phone I get will definitely be a Nexus, best value for money and always updated.

I think depends also by popularity and user's pressure.
Lg Optimus 2X has received ICS in 2 years.
Samsung Galaxy S2 update to ICS was not sure but after many concern about update by the users, has received ICS upgrade and actually also Jelly Bean and was launched in 2011, beyond two year support, (ad the KLP for S3 is semi-official).

Anyone wanna guess the delay duration?
LG plans to begin upgrading its portfolio of Android handsets to Ice Cream Sandwich in the second quarter of next year, the company has just announced. Among the first phones to benefit from Android 4.0 will be the Optimus 2X, which launched as the world's first dual-core smartphone earlier this year, the recent Optimus LTE, and the upcoming Prada Phone. They'll be followed by the Optimus 3D, Optimus Black, Optimus Big, and a couple of other handsets in Q3 of 2012. Not exactly the most aggressive rollout roadmap in the world, but we'd rather see the ICS upgrade happen later than never.
Importantly, LG continues to make no mention of the American variants of these phones — such as the T-Mobile G2x or the AT&T Thrill 4G and Nitro HD — what their fate will be remains to be seen.

Nice.. hopefully LG won't just keep pushing the dates further as they did for gingerbread.
Good news, screw the american versions, they need to be updated by their carriers anyway.
Just wish nvidia would released their crap so the dev community can make a decent ICS release NOAW.
Q2...yes...
BUT Q2 for LG's calendar, not the Gregorian calendar.
finally, i hope so, it wouldnt late Q3.
From LG Mobile facebook page:
During the second quarter of 2012 upgrades will begin for the following smartphone models: the LG Optimus LTE, Prada phone by LG 3.0, the LG Optimus 2X, the LG Optimus Sol, the LG my Touch Q and the LG Eclipse. These upgrades will be followed by upgrades for the following smartphone models during the third quarter of 2012: the LG Optimus 3D, the LG Optimus Black, the LG Optimus Big, the LG Optimus Q2 and the LG Optimus EX.

I wonder about delay... Maybe we should bet?
I really hope we will receive it, but till that time I think CM with ICS will be ready.
Q2 ends in late june, maybe that's when we'll get it.
LG won't release ICS on early april. That's a fact.

I seriously doubt cm is going to release ICS for us untill its already out.
Maybe yes, maybe now. It can be the same situation as with Gingerbread. CM was provided before the official release.
The situation might be worse since we need LG for the camera and Nvidia source (or binaries that help... not 100% sure on that). An LG leaked build may help to a very limited extent. Until then it's just a waiting game.

Wont the next version of android be announced by then?
Hello!
Yes, Jelly Bean will be most probably out by then and the next generation Google phone with it...
I am confident that the Cyanogenmod Team will be faster than LG and ICS/CM9 will be released by Q2/2012
I am also sure that LG will release its ICS build no earlier than late Q3 to Q4/2012 – but I would be very happy if I am wrong and LG can pull its stuff together and get ICS out as announced…
But all of this is of course IMHO.
that's very cute, I'll expect the ics update by December again

One way or another we will get it, super late from LG or half a year earlier through Nvidia source and CM9.

The source for their development platforms (e.g. Tegra 2's Harmony and Ventana along with whatever else they came up with.). O2X has slightly different hardware but this will be a lot better than the nothing Nvidia has provided so far. Though, given the lack of camera, even on OMAP platforms (TI released source), it looks like camera and maybe a few other things could ultimately be up to LG. Let's hope they leak something early. =P
haha LG will be ****ting bricks after hearing this, more work for their crap lazy developers
LG run too fast...with the imagination
lol sad this is I still love my LG Optimus Black over my GS2, Droid Razr, GS1
Its a shame as LG phones have great hardware and look good , Obviously becoming the No1 Android device maker isnt top on their agenda , how can someone run a company without wanting to be no1 , really confusing to me as im a successful big business man myself
Awesome news indeed. But being a LG OB user, considering i just updated to 2.3.4 two days ago : I wanna say that LG users would get the update in summer 2014... But i think we all know we won't be getting this update. We are lucky if we get stock rom for ICS..
And i wanna say something to LG. Instead of trying to make unrootable roms pay attention to your customers. Or you are gonna lose them, no doubt. Like i bought the phone because of those crappy LG applications. Went a little out of the topic sorry. I just had to get it out there. As i said awesome news. Android forever.
I know its nothing personal but Google has a way to make me feel I am behind with the OB

actually jelly bean is *optimized* for tabs. not *restricted* only for it.
it's going to dual boot with chromeOS.
and as of LG, rest in peace, they will not support OB for jelly bean.
ideally, manufacturers give "1" version upgrade to the cells. however, LG is having 2 upgrades for the cells. maybe they will take time, but yet, it's good.
Google is also pressing tablet makers to make android 5.0 dual boot with Windows8 , with a builtin toggle much like the Xp mode toggle that is in vista and Windows7
Lots of reviews are now saying Icecream Sandwich is going to flop this is because of its availability of course
I bet we should be buying new phones when this release kicks-in... takes a year for LG to update...
I doubt it... for OB will be in summer 2013, like gingerbread update...
i doubt even the LG X2 will see jelly bean update
will be for 2012 released phones only and even then will be 2014 for them

LG x4 HD announced today with Icecream sandwich preinstalled , now this phone might get Jelly Bean android 5.0 update , what year ? now that is the question lol
Did LG already mention Jelly Bean for the 4X somewhere? I just assume, that they'll offer it ... it'd be very weird not to on such a new phone and with the big improvements of Jelly Bean.
Our 4X needs unlocked bootloader, we'll have full working CM10 then

looking professionally on their stocks, their display division already lost 60% of their stock value comparing about 12-14 months back, so currently LG is no good investiment at all.
but on the topic of development, LG decided to put alot more effort into licencing security and abuse, so upgrading the o4x platform is a little bit more work probably comparing to other vendors which looks a little more western on their opensource and openminded politics.
remember that LG comes from a society where dupe's are all around and copyrights on copycats are important piece of their product. so their social thinking is far from openminded since their daily spirit in a sharing community is totally black and filled with copycat clones and people stealing other developers work and companies selling cheap fake models.
LG got too much asian culture where some of the others like samsung got more western like appreciation, although being 100% Korean

Hello dears,
I write here for the first time in LG 4X forum and I don't want people those who already bought this device to misunderstand me please
the device is really equipped with the latest and fastest hardware at factories,
But..
LG as company is not new, it was (Gold Star) company and replaced the complete ID of the cheap company with Gold Star with LG as new brand.
and the new department decides to get the latest in the market and hit it with the newest electronic weapons as your 4X
I got a past trying with LG devices, with P990 and P999 (G2X) it was really perfect as hardware but as software, it is still with GB v2.3.5 as the final stock ROM from LG, start from v2.2
I don't why LG can't support her devices to the latest software at google android !!!
So the point that I want to reach here is:
Don't expect LG to support your device to the latest ROMs of android, it will stop at 4.1.1 or 4.2 and stop there then you will see the support from MIUI or CM team, but not LG and will face ton's of change log's and (what working) (what is not)
LG is good for short month's of usage but not for long time.
Hope LG support department read this thread and try to support the software teams in the future.
hope you got what I means

I disagree. It looks to me that LG won't even update our 4x to jelly bean.
Lg are bunch of noobs.
To lg - if you are planning to fight with the likes of Samsung/HTC - offer same type of service. Like Unlock tool for the bootloader. Or unlocked boot loader from factory. At least that way we can make our own way into future updates...
I hate myself for buying a lg! Wasn't even aware of locked boot loader. Next time I will sniff around1000 times before deciding to buy a lg.

Fixes are fine by my book, ICS is already a very good platform to use. Sure, JB brings more improvements but it is game changing compared to GB to ICS.

1. LG Optimus Nexus is not a rumor, but true
2. Yeah, maybe they're working about something (i'm f*ckin optimistic)
Although, LG's software support is crap, i'd still choose their Hardware over HTC's. And, just being chose by Google as the manufacturer for their new flagship device...LG will hopefully get more love by devs. The Optimus 4x HD is a true beast, it's a shame that LG won't unleash its true capabilities. I've been contemplating in whether to get an O4x HD (price is soooo cheap) or just wait for the LG Nexus G (which is most likely what im guna do). Either way, my next phone will be an LG. For some reason, i've becomed very bored with Samsungs, especially with my S3.
LG is going to make a conference on 24-25 oct, hope we'll get some infos about updates

Sent from my LG-P880 using xda premium
This has been discussed before. That list is for Korea and there is no 4X in Korea so it's possible that 4X will still get Jellybean...
I Think LG Will Not mess with updates this time
Nvidia said that "Providing drivers will not at all be a problem, So.... I think Nvidia gives good support for drivers."
If Nvidia messes up then HTC one X,HTC One X+ and another Tegra core Devices will be washed out. Which are High end devices.
And Since Lg got its first Contract with Google this time i hope they respond Fast for updates....This is the best time for them to flush out into market..... According to Present market When Nexus 4 comes into market S3 Price drops Down, At that moment Optimus G pushes Up Lg sales,,,Anyway S4 is coming.
And result.. They should try maintain there standards so they keep on going.Matias Duarte(Director of user experience) of android says Lg is the first brand that made them feel satisfied of there all Nexus devices. They also said Lg supported them to implement all there technology to ther Effort.
I think Everyone know Nexus 4 is the fastest Mobile on planet....:fingers-crossed: I wish i had one .
Anyway, I do not need updates from LG. I wan Cynogenmod 4.2 Update for 4X. which work is already in progresss.
Where all progress stops is :::::::::::::::::::::::No Open Bootloader:::::::::::::::::::::::::
Hope We will get Update Soon
this misleading/misinformation title thread should be removed to prevent any further confusion on 4X HD user, as LG never say anything on it...
