It is unavailable for ANY handset in the UK. They were still telling me it would be released on the 21st up until 5.30 last night. Really, they are just liars. :mad:

Also, it seems that you cannot email them today, as the support page refuses to load. Convenient. :rolleyes:

Hi, i update my O2x With smartflash and the battery autonomy have a drastic lost. How i fix it?
[LG Optimus 2x] g6hoq:
They know anyone who has previously owned an LG smartphone will not be buying another, so they are not really bothered about us and concentrate on the kids who use them for FB or want to take 3D photos.
[LG Optimus 2x] tallguy_uk_98:
I am sure (well pretty sure) that atleast once over the last 3 weeks the Software support tool offered me an upgrade after GB was on general release but it identified the model number as LG-P990 rather than normally LGP990. but when the update process started it told me I was up to date.
[LG Optimus 2x] kingvortex:
OK, I have been pestering LG UK all day via email and on their FB page.

The UK open update has been delayed again for an unspecified amount of time. After some pushing from myself and others, they have stated on their FB page that the fault lies with the UK network operators as they have supposedly sent the update to them for approval.

I did send a tweet to T-Mobile's excellent tech support team on Twitter, who have confirmed that they and the other network operators in the UK have nothing to do with updates for unbranded phones.

Short version - UK update delayed again. LG lies about why.

In my opinion V20L is the best GB rom with less bugs.
[LG Optimus 2x] awf:
Amazing running the LG NLD version of GB almost for 3 weeks now without problems and updated via the official route (LG pc suite)

However my son his phone is still on V10D while I'm running V20l

Maybe because my unit is a replacement one from the early days of the LG O2X

So I have updated via the official route with Dutch language... go figure...

For details see my sign
[LG Optimus 2x] andrazz90:
lucky you, i am still on 2.2 with my uk model
[LG Optimus 2x] IoorLTD:
Every dutch telephone is still on 2.2.....There is still NO update in any official application from LG to update our phones....
[LG Optimus 2x] Maxi_x:
You probably have the Europe Open V20l, the NLD does not excist, you can check this in update tool, Klantondersteuning>Ondersteund model, it's still V10d.
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
No we are not

---------- Post added at 01:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:28 AM ----------

I know where to look lol and I'm aware that there is still V10D that's why the one from son is still running on V10D...

However as an IT guy I'm always curious and not running the Europe open version since my phone is a NLD one ;-)

However updated begin of November via the LG PC suite which mentioned there was new software available...

To my surprise it was downloading and updating to V20L and I have the Dutch version ;-)

So updated via ! "LG Mobile update tool" on a Non rooted phone :p

See screenshot that I posted already in this thread but here again...

---------- Post added at 01:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:30 AM ----------

Not true in my case :p
[LG Optimus 2x] kingvortex:
Are you sure? Using any update not officially provided by LG is surely breaking the warranty.

I'm not willing to do that with such unpredictable hardware.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
The kdz files are created by LG, hosted on LG servers and installed using LG software.

How much more 'provided by LG' can you get? ;)

Besides, you could always kdz back to the 'correct' one for warranty purposes if you're paranoid.
[LG Optimus 2x] Doublex Speed:
Format Chinese LGE version, update to Gingerbread.

Greetings Xda Developers!

As many a noob before me, the world of smartphone software was largely completely new to me a couple of weeks ago when I bought my phone. After some reading, some searching and some thinking, I’m probably not much further from square one.

What I’m going to ask quite possibly has been covered before, but I’m at the stage where reading another 20 pages of another thread probably isn’t going to get me any closer to answers that will satisfy me enough that I won’t go and turn a 1/3 of a months salary into pretty house building material. So, I can only ask for your collective patience and forgiveness in answering my queries.

So, forgiveness asked for, here goes:

My phone:

Bought here in Vietnam, originally for Singaporean market as far as I can ascertain - the code is ASEADW, which shows up on the LG website as SEA/HUB(SINGAPORE).

The phone is rooted and has some kind of Chinese software installed on there from xda.cn.

It is still on Froyo.

I've attached the phone status screen as a screenshot.

I would like to completely remove the existing LGE Version (and the associated Chinese language software on the phone) and update to the stock gingerbread with Vietnamese language support – I’m pretty sure that would be v20e – at least according to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1035041 and the LG updater.

I would also like to update to whatever the latest Baseband and Kernel Version is too. I’ve been unable to work out whether or not updating the rom will also update the baseband/kernel.

I’ve downloaded the LG mobile update tool, LG PC Suite, the usb drivers from the LG mobile update tool, the v20e zip file from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1035041, the v20e.kdz file from http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGP990/ASEADW/V20e_00/V20E_00.kdz and also the v20l.kdz file from http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGP990/ANEUDW/V20l_00/V20L_00.kdz .

If there is a reason for using v20l rather than v20e, and I can get Vietnamese language support on the v20l, then I will use that instead, following the advice of you good people.

So, please:

1.	How do I ‘format’ the phone and subsequently update it to gingerbread?

2.	How do I update the kernel and baseband version to the latest?

3.	Should I choose v20l over v20e for any reason?

Many, many thanks.
[LG Optimus 2x] hisham027:
Flashing the KDZ file will factory reset the phone, If not you can factory reset its after flashing the KDZ file. Follow this Tutorial http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1327929&highlight=KDZ

The KDZ file includes the latest baseband and kernel, if you want to install a custom kernel you can root the device after flashing the KDZ file.

I dont know the differences between v20l and v20e. I never tried the official LG GB update.
[LG Optimus 2x] Floating Point:
No, it won't. If you follow the tutorial on the link, you won't get a factory reset, I've done it and didn't had my phone data wiped, although I made a factory reset after the update just to make sure everything is clean :p

I see many people is still depressed by the LG lack of respect with their customers, I recommend you to download the EURO OPEN V20L ROM and manually flash the KDZ, I don't see how you can brick your phone or loose the warranty.

Finally updated

Hi all!

Finally got the Hungarian update. Since I have installed the new firmware, I have lesser RAM (before ~150 MB, now ~70 MB) but there is no random reboot and it always joins the WIFI. I think it is more smoothly, I am really happy with it.

Next step: waiting for the ICS...

Kind Regards,

Rado
[LG Optimus 2x] soarertt:
I just got v20G for my uk phone this morning. Can't take a pic of the settings page just now but here's what it says:

Model No - LG-P990

Android ver - 2.3.4

Baseband ver - 1035.21_20110725

Kernel ver - 2.6.32.9

Build No - GRJ22

LGE ver - LGP990-V20g

FWIW all settings and data remained intact after upgrade
[LG Optimus 2x] bliizzz:
Wooha finally updated to gingerbread
[LG Optimus 2x] rmein:
Most people should have realised by now that the baseband and kernel version numbers displayed are no indication of which version of the baseband and kernel is installed on the phone.

There are different basebands with the same version number, just as there are a number of different LG kernels with the same version number. I don't see what useful information you could possibly hope to get from them.

Edited to add: The build date is probably a better indicator of whether there are any differences. Interestingly the UK V20g is Oct27, rather than the Oct20 of the European V20l. Has anyone checked build dates for the other GB releases?
[LG Optimus 2x] andrazz90:
funny how the updater is showing an update for my phone, AFTER updating
[LG Optimus 2x] technofan1:
Got mine updated too. V2.3.4:D Wouldn't it be funny if Ice Cream Sandwich came out in the next 20 mins:eek:
[LG Optimus 2x] waynefox:
How well does it run?

Is it as sluggish as 2.2

Does it have the old 2min slowdown after installing apps?

Does anyone have the baseband from this ROM as a seperate file

And is there any chance this ROM is deodexed?
[LG Optimus 2x] kingvortex:
Seems to run fairly well so far in the 3-4 hours since I updated. Much better than 2.2 anyway.

No slowdown that I can detect when installing/updating apps.

Don't know about the baseband/deodex.
[LG Optimus 2x] waynefox:
Cool. Just wondering if it's worth going from custom back to LG official
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Probably not.
[LG Optimus 2x] xavdeman:
Vodefone Nederland (The Netherlands / Holland) just told me, on Facebook no less (!) that they do not know when the update will be ready. Why even make your own fork if you can't maintain it in a timely manner?
[LG Optimus 2x] mez90:
updated last night...

posted this over at android forums, on here aswell incase it helps anyone..

uk lg 2x carphone warehouse unlocked.

just upgraded to 2.3.4

update on windows 7 machine took 12 minutes total from pressing "Start" to finish including the 200+mb download, download was slow.

after the update the first boot of the phone took a long time around 6-7minutes.

boots after that seems faster then on the previous os.

none of my data went missing,

apps / app data / saved games / settings all saved

nothing that i can tell as yet thats been lost.

*** APN Settings were lost and had to be manually put back in

scrolling the applications seems smoother

theres some funky new colours when getting to the end of a scroll list.

browser - better selecting text and copy and pasting then previous browser.

theres a new GPS icon, it doesnt seem any quicker to find gps satellite

update

- ive noticed that even though im not on vodafone (im on talkmobile) the update has added 2 vodafone APN settings which dont work and cant be deleted.

Has anyone tried to updates their phone without the simcard in ??

... i'll add some more updates if i notice anything worthwhile.

new details...

android version 2.3.4

baseband 1035.21_20110725

kernel 2.6.32.9

build GRJ22

LGE Version LGP990-V20g
[LG Optimus 2x] konio25:
for me on v20g memory management looks better than on v20L, when i kill apps on 20g i have 120-140 on 20L after kill apps 100-115
[LG Optimus 2x] bliizzz:
Same on v20e i usually get 145mb free aft killing apps
[LG Optimus 2x] Flix123:
After reboot, I get 200MB free ram in V20L (but I removed some system apps like osp and Car home app).
[LG Optimus 2x] RedeemerSK:
May I ask those of you that use your phone in a more conservative way - same background services and widgets running all the time, use another app from time to time, and ... the most importantly ... do not restart the phone - to keep a close look at free RAM number during the system runtime. Check the number like 4 times a day, for example.

I'm currently running on Modaco Gr5 ROM with MCK r26 ext4 kernel (based on v20l) and I can clearly see free RAM slowly decreasing (from 120 MB after restart) until .. after 2 days ... it gets to about 30 MB and the phone really feels like it struggles every time something new have to come into memory.

I'm wondering if it's normal (free RAM decreasing, not the phone slow downs) for every ROM, common for all stock P990 GB ROMs or specialty of Gr5.

Thx

GB Update

Updating now, 52% complete ....
[LG Optimus 2x] IPdaily:
Just updated mine and works like a dream, this is.what how it should.have been.from the start in April.

One thing that doesn't work after the update is my Optimus 2X Touch LED notification app, which is very disappointing, but hopefully there will be a GB version out soon.

EDIT: the battery icon in the notification bar doesn't seem to work, but my battery widget (beautiful widgets) seems to work ok.
[LG Optimus 2x] sander-m:
This is a known issue, common for all stock P990 GB roms. It's kernel-related, it seems like the memory leak has been fixed by spica1234 (his HP kernel). But sadly I have BSOD's with his kernel, so that's a no go for me.
[LG Optimus 2x] RedeemerSK:
Thx

I'm trying to read everything v20 related both here on xda and on modaco forums and this is news for me (links please). If that's true .. the memory leak in stock ROM (kernel), .. I'm wondering who does QA in LG then.
