will got no support soon

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
Regards

You are very optimistic thinking that reached 4.1 1

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.

How many updates to the firmware has there been since the phone was released? And where are the fix lists?

there are 10a to 10f firmware and i think the update only to solve the problem and i think there will be no update because they think they do a good job...... if they reliaze it!!

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.
Can you show me the fix list? I've searched a lot on google but no one seems to have it..

Perhaps we can hope that lg will upgrade the 4x hd directly to Key Lime, if the rumors about a sonn-to-come Optimus Nexus are true...

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

LG need to much time, they will update.

No Official Kitkat Update from LG

Korean OEM's work on updating its lineup to Android 4.4. According to our tipster, many of LG's devices will be going straight to Android 4.4, skipping right over Android 4.2 and Android 4.3 in most cases. Among the models cited by our source are the LG Optimus F3, LG Optimus F6, LG G Pad 8.3 (including Verizon model), LG G Pro Lite, LG Optimus F7, LG-D315 (unannounced), LG LS740 (rumored to be the successor to the LG Optimus F3), LG Optimus L9 II, LG Optimus Vu II, LG Vu III, and the curvy LG G Flex.
If this information pans out, LG has really been working hard, bringing all of these models to Android 4.4. Our tipster made it clear that LG is not bothering with Android 4.3 for any of its devices. He also wanted to point out that the LG Optimus 4X HD will be sticking at Android 4.1.2. That is a model that is powered by the NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor.

Commenting brings the existing thread back up to the top and anyone who cares can then read your wonderfully incisive post. Those of us who don't want to read any more about Give us 4.4 NOW" don't get notified of a new thread and don't end up wasting our time opening it.

Actually, we kinda do
Well, not the ROM/system itself, but its blobs
The older blobs get, the harder it is to get newer Android versions working, as the old blobs lack some functions or are having some other integration problems.
We already are lucky having 4.4 running on our device, but I can, and will, not guarantee that we will be able to have Android 5 running as a daily driver. However, we are very lucky that grouper and the x3 are that similar, so we can use grouper blobs. So all we can do is to hope for grouper to be officially supported as long as possible

Dual SIM - single SIM compatability for LG L90 (D410)

Please excuse the noob here.
I have my LG L90.
I plan to root my phone using the root guide here on XDA.
However being a noob I'm afraid to root.
The main reason for that being I hear dual sim phones do not have good custom roms like CM11 or their upcoming androidL rom.
For example they have only ROMs for D415 here at XDA and that too has missing stuff like front camera !!
A friends phone got bricked and I'm pretty scared to put a single SIM rom of D415 into my D410. What will happen then?
Will my device get bricked or be very buggy because it is a dual sim?
Plz help

As far as I know (D405n here) these roms are universal. I use cm11 built for 410 (which has not got NFC) and the bug is I don't have front camera working (410 users have) and also no NFC. If you're going to use rom for single sim, your dual sim support will most likely not work, other than that might be little differences. But of course get sure you can use 415 rom for 410

The NFC not working IMHO is understood, but Isn't something like the front camera not working a major issue?
Where do you get a good ROM for D410? The rom I saw didnt have front camera support even for D410.
(I understood CM group doesnt release rom for each phone)

I am pretty sure front camera is working for 410 in quarx's cm11. I think he mentioned it does work in 410, but it doesn't in other versions since he doesn't own them. But then again, find yourself (it should be written somewhere on the few last pages in the rom thread)

It bugs me how hard it is for a phone to have a stable ROM.
Well maybe its really hard, coding these.
Ok I definetly will find out.
Thank you.

The L90 has only been on the market for 5 or 6 months. We've had custom ROMs for at least the past 3 months. There are only a small group, 4 people, working on ROMs for this device. We all have lives away from XDA too. I've literally dumped every free minute, and then some, in to developing my ROM for the D415.
As you stated, CM doesn't and cannot support every device out there. Myself, I technically don't have the free time to support ROM building but somehow I'm managing. The only way CM will support this device is for someone to be appointed a maintainer, by CM, for this device.
I can't see how the VGA front camera is more important than the rear main camera but that's just me. Also the D415 models, and any L90 variant with out 'n' in the model name, does not have NFC. So "LG-D4**n" is a NFC enabled device. "LG-D4**hn" is a dual-sim NFC enabled device.
Quarx is building ROMs for dual sim devices, I'm building for single sim devices.

Totally understand.
L90 isn't even popular, with a rating 0.8 compared to 7.0 of LG G2.
CM won't appoint a maintainer.
Should have bought a flagship device
I really appreciate the work you guys are doing.
Imagine what will happen when android L is out? People will start demanding the ROM almost instantly. Demand will always be higher.
Tough times.

Part of the problem is in what you just said right there the demand is out there but nobody wants to take the time to do it themselves.
Each device no matter if its a flagship or a non flagship device has many different variants each variant has its own quirks and its own needs the four people we currently have working on our devices are doing it in their own free time this is not what they do for a living everything they do for us is awesome everything everything fix yes there are bugs there are bugs in the stock rom on a phone so don't ever expect anything to be perfect for the cameras in camera I can understand the front facing camera why do you really need it? Do you need it desperately Skype somebody?

@shinobisoft does this means your rom is compatible with the d405n?

It can be. But when I release the next update, since the D415 doesn't have NFC or a FM reciever, NFC will be disabled and FM Radio.apk won't exist either. In order for me to support other devices, I must also build a kernel for them.
Let me work the bugs out of CM11 for the D415, then I'll look in to building ROMs for the other single sim variants.

Question about Android M Development for LG L90

Hi.
I have question most to the developers that work on our LG L90
Are you going to develop the custom rom based on Android M on LG L90 as I don't really thing that lg's gonna release it official for L90.
And if so, Is it possible to make it for now from currently avaible Android M Preview from Nexus devices?
It could possible bring some knowlege and idea that could help in the final Android M experiance/development bug fixes, etc
That's how I'm thinking, but I'm not developer so...
That's why I'm asking

Well L90 has CM support and CM will certainly update to Android M, so I think we'll get it eventually, but the d415 still has a bunch of problems with CM

There is no really stable version of any customROM for L90.
CM11 which is quite old is still having a few problems
CM12(.1) is quite buggy. Doesn't really bother for a daily use but there are option they shouldn't be available and random reboots...
Well LG android is not perfect but it's stable. So you can imagine how much time it take's to develop such a bug free ROM.

So you're telling me there is Android M preview when there is still unfinished (at least for me) Android L?

the worst thing which could happen for l90 development is loss of quarx
the future is not bright

@OP: We have to wait for Google to release the source for M and then we build roms, unless someone here is a hacking god and can port M right now . @olinojephanko I have watched this forum go from meh to booming so its just warming up I feel

So have I. Quarx did great job by every meaning, but he was almost (almost I say) the only one contributing. After his disappearance, the development started for real, when we started to have avability to choose roms that suit us, not only CM.
Now we've got a few really skilled devs (and I am not afraid to compare CaptivateKing's skills to Quarxs') and a few minor devs, not that much participating but still. And also we've got community. I see no reason why L90 development's future would be colored in black

@wojtek267
I hope so too.

Bug fixes and 5.1.1 Android update

Any new word on 5.1.1 and bug fix update coming to the LG G4? Its constantly freezing, touchscreen doesn't always recognize touches.

Doubt they will do 5.1.1.. Mostly likely the G4 will get M a cpl of months before they release the G5

If LG wants to give us 5.1.1 that is fine. To be honest LG absolutely has to release an update at least to fix existing bugs. If issues/bugs are resolved, I think we can live with Android 5.1 until Android M arrives.

I'd rather just see a bug fix, I held onto KK for the longest time until I upgraded from the G2 to this. The touchscreen and Bluetooth drops are rough

If their track record is anything like it was with the G3, then I agree with you sir. LG and their lack of timely nearly ruined the experience for me.
Majority of the issues with this phone seem to be rooted in the software so hopefully they at least release a meaningful update to address those in the wake of 5.1.1.
