I would just like to share the following...

Talking to LG Portugal on Facebook

Me to LG Portugal ... Yesterday

Will LG maintain it's shameful prospect management or will it update it's O2X today?

LG Portugal to Me ... Yesterday

LG is working on this version. We want to ensure the update is stable and functioning adequately without issues after installation. We will maintain you informed.

Thank you.

Me to LG Portugal ... Today

You can deduce this will be my last acquisition from LG.

Your automated response became void of any logic when the same mobile sold in the USA (G2X) received an update to Gingerbread in July(!!!), the only differences being the baseband chip - Infineon PMB9801/PMB5703 on the O2X and Qualcomm MDM6200 no G2X, which was launched in April(!!!).

Considering the fact that the KERNEL will never evolve beyond 2.6.32 (NVIDIA clauses not forgotten), this device is destined to be wiped off the market rapidly, mainly due to LG's horrible support.

Hello, Samsung

Goodbye, LG

...sorry about any translation errors.
[LG Optimus 2x] BEC0MM:

As of now, it seems to be more responsive than v10c...So I'm quite happy with it...

Guess ill have to install cm7 so i can play tegra games that need gingerbread :( ....i dont like bugs.
[LG Optimus 2x] Soulj4h:
I'm in touch with their manager head here now, he has contacted me. According to their research department, the release of gingerbread is stable but they're just doing some last minute changes before it gets released so he said (not final or sure) that maybe by end of this month.

V20e Bulgaria

The 2.3.4 from bulgaria is amazing. I suggest you stop waiting and flash (in this case restore) that rom. I got 2857 on Quadrant running that stock v20e. no OC ot whatsoever
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
I'm sure we all know what kernel it will come with, but I too am interested in the baseband. If it's been updated I will flash the .kzd and retrieve the .fls files when it extracts them.

Edit:

Heh, this page moves to fast, no need for me to do anything then, that's handy.

Edit 2: Any chance you could post the build.prop?

johgru, i really just followed the guide and it worked, no errors here.
[LG Optimus 2x] Dac0908:

I was hoping for new kernel and baseband. Nothing new there. :(

OK now lets wait a day or two for our developers to work their magic :D
[LG Optimus 2x] Ximo F. Verde:
Sry for repeating myself, can somebody clarify whether flashing the kdz file with the method posted here also flashes a baseband? Thanx

Hi everyone,

I'm not too bothered with GB and I run stock froyo on my phone. It runs perfectly smooth and is always snappy (I use LauncherPro plus to make it more of my phone), well, it does occasionally start to show some lag after 200 hours of uptime (it only suffered from bsod may be four times since april).

Anyway, what I am interested to know about GB is whether the battery life is improved at all. Could anybody who managed to successfully install and run stock GB on their phones comment.

thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] Fulwood Sedge:
Unfortunaltey I am at uni today and will be for most of the day so I will have to wait until tonight to get the update. Can any from the UK confirm if they have got the update from the official routes and not the kdz file? and also has anyone who has already updated (anywhere) have done so whilst their phone is rooted?

many thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] muddymind:
LOLOL!

We just updated our phones and you want to know if battery life is better?!?!?

Just wait a few more days and we'll post if it's better or not ;)

@Fulwood Sedge: I had it rooted and lost the root (I'll try to root it again).

hi,

uk didnt get official update yet , nor NL for that matter,

you cannot update via official channels without going back to stock and unroot the phone 1t otherwise the update will fail miserably.

also you cannot use KDZ update while having rusty's CWM installed u need to go back to the regular recovery

just got official update from the NL via b2c agent.
[LG Optimus 2x] adixtra:
This method "KDZ flashing" remove CWM and root after flashing on p920.

If somebody flashing this method on p990 (with CWM installed on phone) please give feedback.

But without that information safest is to flashing with stock recovery.
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
If somebody flashing on p990 with CWM please give feedback.

simple : will never work.

that's why the back-to-original recovery was invented.....

And a stupid question, does this update come OTA or with the lg mobile updater?
[LG Optimus 2x] raf2k:

Someone on Swedish forum wrote that he received it as OTA.

I talked to LG support yesterday and they said that the update will come via LG updater first and via OTA 1-2 week later.

Thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] Fulwood Sedge:
please correct me if im wrong (anyone) but you will have to AT LEAST flash backtoext3 so that your file system and partitions are correct for stock GB. Once that is done it makes sence to me just to flash back to stock as your phone wont boot CM with ex3.

Back2EXT3 will wipe all the data on your phone, so do that, then install what you like.

For all UK users - just phoned LG and they have not released it for the UK, they are unsure of when it will be released but hope it will be by the end of the year.

They reckon they don't know if the phone can handle GB - if they don't know then why have they released it for other countries, surely the phones are the same specification.

Asked why i couldn't use a firmware from another european country and was told it was down to the network signal....

UK support have no knowledge of GB update

Gentlemen,

Below is a transcript I've just had with John from LG Mobile Phone Support using their "Chat" method of communication, does anyone know anything at LG?

Time of chat:	11/1/2011 7:47:34 PM

Length of chat:	00:04:04

Your name:	Me

Chatted with:	Mobile Phone Support

7:47 PM	Mobile Phone Support:	Hello, You. Can I help you with anything today?

7:48 PM	Mobile Phone Support:	Good afternoon, you're through to John. How can I help?

7:48 PM	Me:	It's rumoured that Gingerbread is being released today for the Optimus 2x, any idea on time frames for the UK?

7:51 PM	Mobile Phone Support:	Unfortunately we don't have a release date for Android 2.3 yet, the rumour regarding it being released today was de-confirmed. We can confirm, however, that it will be released before the end of this year.

And so we wait..........

I have flashed the rebuild which is available based on the Italian release and it seems really really fast for me. Not done anything extra to it yet and it seems really nice. I haven't had chance to test the battery yet. A full charge did take 1 and a half hours to charge fully, that's all I know about the battery.

I think LG released the V20L for Romania (I suppose ), but it's probably for the carrier-independent phones, because for Vodafone Romania it's still V10F.

Is it possible to force the generic V20L update with LG's tool? I know it's possible to download and flash the ROM, but I'm not an expert and I wouldn't like to mess with the phone until I'm sure BSODs and other possibly hardware defects are gone.

Just looked again, no uk carrier has updates available above 10D

My carrier is Carphone Warehouse (talkmobile) and the phone is unlocked sim free, but I am still reliant on CPW allowing the update via LG... might hunt down a PAYG sim to see if that helps..
[LG Optimus 2x] IPdaily:
Really? i thought CPW just sold phones and contracts and has no say or control what, how and when manufactures release their updates. i got mine from CPW for that reason.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
You're correct.

If you got the phone from CPW/P4U or similar, then it will be an open one.
[LG Optimus 2x] g6hoq:
That's brilliant news... looking at the list obtained from the LG update tool, it does list CPW as a carrier and has a version number allocated to it;

guess we will have to wait then..
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Well that's odd, wonder why they've done that?

I notice there is a UK category as well as the Euro Open category... I wonder which one the P4U etc phones fall into.
[LG Optimus 2x] IPdaily:
I don't get it, I honestly thought CPW simply buy handsets and sell them on without opening the box, what do they have to gain/lose by tampering with handsets?

Gingerbread update....

Installed Gingerbread this am as per previous post.

My phone is Sim-free, non-branded from Expansys UK and the installation went without problems.

I can confirm this even tho' the update model listing for UK still says V10D.

May be if you try a few times to update using the LG Update tool it might work!

I'm running a bog standard 2X, which had the stock rom, and was non-rooted or flashed.
[LG Optimus 2x] rjpa123:
I can confirm V20L update for Portugal.

The local carriers will require more time to add bloatware to their ROM update releases.

We can all check official ROM updates for each country using the LG Mobile Update tool.

a ) Start the application without the phone connected.

b ) Choose "Options & Help" menu -> "Country & Language"

c ) Select a country from the list which you want to verify (wait a few seconds for the app to update)

d ) Choose "Customer Support" -> "Supporting Model"

e ) Find the entries with "Model" column having the "LGP990" entry form the list.
