[LG Optimus 3D] DevJackey:
Calm down a bit.

Feel free to read my previous post to understand why a multimillion dollar company would be doing things slower than a solo developer or tiny teams.

If you'll think about it carefully, you'll understand why there isn't clear answer to questions. First of all, they said the update should be by September, then they announced it was delayed until later this month or next month. The month or 2 is a reasonable extension if they discovered some troubling bugs during testing. They gave us a Estimated Release Date which is pretty much all they need to give.

Be happy we got a expected release date. Also you should understand that because its a company, the people you communicate with is Customer Service. However, they won't know every single detail that goes on in the development section because they simply don't work on the team. All they can do is respond to you from the information that they have which is subject to change very frequently. They can receive information that the product is almost finished, then next hour a bug could be found and they'll have to work on that and then there will be news about a new bug so it won't be almost finished yet. Do you understand what I'm saying here? You base your claims on LG's being clueless and incompetent on a team of Customer Service people who wouldn't have the information you want at this time. Because of all the factors that can change so easily, they won't give concrete information and because they are a company they can't supply the consumers with every little detail. They can't tell us, "We just finished this and that and will start to work on this next." Whereas, developers on XDA, will tell us information like that because they are not doing this work as a business.

Honestly, you seem clueless about how a company works and also how a development team works.

You seem too excited right now. Calm down and think about it from their side some more. I said it before and I'll say it again, complaints such as this will lead to more harm than good. If you show how discontent you are and this causes the company to rush the development team, it'll only lead to a worse product. And a typical scenario I said before about placing more workers into the team might occur too which would either lead to a further delayed product or a product with even more bugs.

One last thing, I got nothing against your argument about wanting every last drop of battery life and every last bit of speed from the processor or other things like that. Since we're Android users, it's most likely we're tech guys who are interested in making the best out of our stuff. I agree with you on that, but my point is simply to just not rush them. All the stuff we want takes time to do and delays doesn't mean a company isn't serious or incompetent. On the other hand, it could mean the complete opposite, because they take it seriously, so that's why we're getting delays. Good stuff takes time to do.

Actually, I think you will understand a bit more if you try it out yourself. Since you are expecting so much to happen in such a short amount of time. Why not give it a try yourself? Feel free to bring your own Gingerbread port or better yet, a Ice Cream Sandwich port when the source is released. Instead of waiting for LG's team to create a fully stable port before releasing, you can try to create your own. No one is making you wait for LG's port. Go give it a try.
