Probably not, but it doesn't take much to try it and on the off chance petition succeeds we'll be better from it.

Signed it because why not

Online petition

Hello everyone,
I just made an online petition to obtain ICS for our device. I know someone can say we only want last release of an operating system and such. In my opinion, that's false. We want something we paid for. I gave LG my trust and they disappointed me. Please, sign the petition, if you share my thoughts, or at least give it a read.

Why dont you just file a complaint directly to the your country's consumer protection agency?

Mainly for two reasons, mate:
- I have many friends with LG2x and they can't flash, for a million of reasons, they are afraid of bricks, afraid of not finiding confortable with custom roms, bugs, etc... and I, as CM user, think that we should all get updates, for the money we spent in the phone and the disappointing feeling. We use CM, but it's bad LG just discontinued her flagship phone.
- It's not only Italy's problem: if it were just Italy, I would have worked on other releases and made it available as custom rom, as every other person on this forum would do, but it's a common problem, and I thought we need a common solution.
Thanks for your reply, if I sounded rude, please forgive me, it's only difficult to explain such things in a foreign language.

no, its fine. I did sign the petition before replying to the thread. The consumer protection agency one was just a suggestion. I am in Maldives and we dont have an LG office/branch here, therefor we cannot do anything against them.
lets first see we can get gingerbread
they promise it on the (netherlands-belgium) website
they say "always updated to the latest version of android with one click on the button"

For what I could understand, smaller offices, like italians just works as test units, so it would be a waste of time to keep in touch with them...

nice try, but no one will give a f*-ck about it !
as for other android phones : you get the version installed & 1 update ...
so ... froyo + GB , that´s it. then our phone is outdated.
companies want to make money & sell new phones, so that´s their policy ...
i can sign your petition if you like, but it will change nothing ...
sorry, but that´s the truth
but at least we have official CM support, so when ICS SDK is available, we will get it from this source
Even the gb leaks are based on froyo kernels. Face it we are never going to get gingerbread let alone ICS because LG simply can't do it. (I blame nvidia aswell btw but thats a whole different story)

Because Samsung will take months before releasing ICS, and the donation is for their effort.

The donation is for encouraging any developer to develop and maintain the ROM.

You need a bnc/znc btw.. lots of diff timezones.
noticed you'd popped into icsnote when I was on the way in to work .
I was going to suggest a thread on tabletroms, as I can control the comments easier, just purely for cross pollination of information..
I prefer working as openly as I can, and its quiet over there in the Note section

Actually i dont think so like months will pass for ics note. i think samsung is ready for ics note but they are delaying because samsung and google want galaxy nexus to be the first ics phone on the market.

I just curious, what features on ICS could be implemented on our device?
I wonder if ICS on our device could work as well as on the other device?
I'm sorry, I mean no harm, I've signed the petition as well. I just want to know the advantage if official ICS came.

offer to all holders of the s5830i

Hello, I'm from the site 4pda.ru. We, all the owners of this device have on our site, the collection of signatures to update Official firmware to 2.3.7 or to 4.0. I want to invite you to join us, what would the developers from Samsung heard us and finally released the official version software. After the collection of signatures will be created the document, in which we announced his request and then send the document with an attached link to the company Samsung. here can look at our example. If you support our idea, then please choose the person who will be able to making the theme for the collection of signatures. Do not judge strictly for my English, I'm from Russia.If you have any questions, ask, I will try to answer.

i do too, but i agree translating is a nightmare.
I want ICS as well, but i don't understand russian either and yea, g-translating is a pain, can't you make an international english based topic for your idea in 4pda? it would be easier to spread the word like that
No need to keep its bid for 4pda.ru, create here on XDA similar theme, we spend collecting signatures before September 20, and when we're picking, we combine all into one document and send it together
Like this?

Your idea is good, but that would leave there to sign, you will need the registration, which has not ukazhdogo, so I suggest to you to host a similar topic, where you can explain something in case your colleagues what and how, here translated sample application:
"1) Your nickname.
2) The real name.
3) The place of residence.
4) How many are using this device.
5) Indicate which version of firmware you want to see on this device.
Attention! Write accurate and reliable data "
for the last 9 days we were able to collect 150 signatures, and I wish you so much success, I repeat that the petition we end September 20

Samsung GT-S5830i/c/m/9i Galaxy Ace - Petition for firmware update

Petition new drivers for S5830i and S5360.

Guys, i have found this petition about new drivers for our phone and Galaxy Y. And this petition need 10000 signatures of course to Broadcom make new drivers for our phone and Galaxy Y. If we have new driver, BroadcomCM ,bieltv.3 and SpaceCaker sure find a source for build another CyanogenMod like 10.x. And also continue CM9.1 build by bieltv.3 and BroadcomCM will help him. I sure our phone will be popular.
Note:The petiton are re-opened. Please to all member to signs for this BroadcomCM's petition. I know peoples say Broadcom can't build but we need look for it be careful. Hope they will release the driver.
[NEW LINK]Check this link:- https://www.change.org/petitions/br...er-source-of-gpu-and-cpu-for-bcm21553-devices
That is a petition, not any official news from BroadCOM. And it is not fully sure that they will release the drivers/sources.

I still doubt they will release it, and 301 signatures is not enough.

Sign ! It's a big event ^^
Better change the title of this thread, cuz it doesn't fit.
Do the other bcm devices support this?
I don't give a f*ck from where I sent this from.
well share this threat everywhere.
I was about to make 5000 sign by myself but i hear that its not sure that they will release drivers even if we reach that sign, so sad
I still can't get how this will help
Broadcom isn't checking out causes.com or changes.org or any other petition site saying "Oh God! They're gonna have 5000 signs. Then we'll have to release drivers. Someone stop them".
It's like those facebook photos
" XYZ is starving. Hit like if you have heart. Ignore if you are inhuman "
Neither hitting likes feed those people neither these signs will compel them to release drivers. Can you make me understand why or how they will?
Will these petition holders go with pitchforks and torches to Broadcom and make them release?
From what I understand, the most it can do is increase attention which MAY help a little bit but I don't think it can do anything more.
I think our phone and Galaxy Y phone.
