You dont know unless you try, and yeah paul has some contacts in LG from what i heard, that us where i

think

the leaked gingerbread roms came from.
[LG Optimus 2x] C0D3N1N3R:
Exactly! They said they will **start** with ICS in quarter 2! :(
[LG Optimus 2x] Mattin:
Yes it was. Paul will also get ICS :)

Great!!
[LG Optimus 2x] anubiz03:
I definitely will be when you get audio working and battery stable.

But battery is working my friend.
[LG Optimus 2x] albertoa97:
You're the best bro! I can't wait for the release... I want it... I can tolerate the audio and gps bug!!!
[LG Optimus 2x] ranrick:
a phone without audio, are you serious? but i agree with you for the first alpha release we dont need gps and camera at all.
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
Ok.... then you don't need a telephone.
[LG Optimus 2x] Dekudan:
Just been speaking to Paul, don't get your hopes up (yet) over all this. There's a lot of misinformation and bad translations.

[LG Optimus 2x] karthik1der:
The thing is..Samsung Sweden Facebook doesnt even know about the release of the ICS lol but still one of the service centres in Sweden returned a customer's phone with this ICS. Maybe LG also did something like this in Korea? Oh how desperate we are :mad:
[LG Optimus 2x] Core Memory:
Those statements are from LG of North Korea. They're secret code for: "We will destroy you through false Optimus 2X/G2X, etc., Android ICS update statements. Die you western capitalist pigs. MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! "

For some reason I have a feeling that you are under the impression that every Asian country is communist (which is not a big surprise given you are from North America).
[LG Optimus 2x] Core Memory:
Read my post again. It states North Korea. Is that every Asian country? If it is, that will be a surprise to Japan, South Korea, China, etc.

Oops! I forgot that China is a communist country, or is it?
[LG Optimus 2x] aldyu:
Someone should also try to send an O2x to service center, maybe it will also get lucky to have ICS when returned...:)
[LG Optimus 2x] Sörnäinen:
Okay, that's that. Time to change to another phone. *sigh*
[LG Optimus 2x] Avfcman:
I think they'd probally return with 2.2 on their phone knowing lg
[LG Optimus 2x] Dekudan:
Careful. I don't want this to be further misinformation!

I didn't say it was going to happen, only saying that the update isn't out in Korea yet. It's most likely still being worked on.
[LG Optimus 2x] thedicemaster:
i believe there was a reliable source stating that LG is indeed working on ics for the korean o2x, the misinformation here is that some (russian?) site mistranslated this and posted as if they already released it.

ics is coming, just not yesterday.

http://blog.gsmarena.com/android-4-1-jelly-bean-ported-to-the-t-mobile-g1/

And we are still on GB!
[LG Optimus 2x] Core Memory:
I looked at the hex code for the V21Y update files and found that it is LG Soft India (LGSI http://www.lgsoftindia.com/ which did the Android V21Y update for the LGP999. In the code, it specifically names Seejoy Jose (seejoy.cjose@lge.com) who is a senior programmer there. His profile is on Linkedin at http://www.linkedin.com/in/seejoyjose

There's also another name, Rameswara, but nothing else related to it. It may refer to Rameswaram, a place in India.

Contacting Seejoy may reveal something more useful about an Android update for the Optimus 2X/G2x.

Addition:

Here's his twitter account name: seejoyjose
[LG Optimus 2x] victoram:
Oh god, im imaginating how people gonna spam this man e-mail.
[LG Optimus 2x] Core Memory:
Yeah, and his Twitter account. There's others at LG Soft India who can be contacted too.
[LG Optimus 2x] Avfcman:
I dont think his twitter will be any help, he hasn't twitted since july 4th.

And he only started using the O2X on July 2nd :L

Anyway, still waiting.....
[LG Optimus 2x] loipol84:
The think that is so discouraging is the non existence of any beta leak....

SGR Got a leak

Atrix will also get very soon one

O2X....well no useful info at all

It is obvious that Nvidia isnt anymore the source of the problem(But still FU Nvidia for CS policy).

And while other OEMs are giving strong signs that trying hard to offer the delayed upgrades,in Lg case we only have some generic info from RC and Paul.
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
i understand your frustration cause i suffer from it too, but think, im pretty sure they wouldnt say its already in testing stages if they werent close to getting it right or maybe already got it right and are just really testing now, so far all they said before was that there was no info available on that, plus if we think, they updates 2 phones relatively fast, then, its been months since that happened, the 3rd phone on the list was ours, so im pretty convinced that they are indeed working on it, but maybe it was a lot more difficult than they thought, or maybe theyr just not so good at what they do XD
[LG Optimus 2x] lap33733:
Man, this was a bad idea. I'm also a senior programmer and I hate the idea of being spammed based on my company strategy. Just leave him alone. He can't probably say nothing without internal consequences.
[LG Optimus 2x] dasklney:
And all employee are working under NDA, it could be a risk for him if he misspeak something :D
[LG Optimus 2x] homersimp:
Would you be happy if somebody put your email, name and twitter account on the net ?

This man is just working, i don't think that he wants to be spammed by geeks and i don't think that it will accelerate the update of the 2X.
[LG Optimus 2x] galaxyfitankit:
Guys initially I was using galaxy phones...so I advise ... just go to galaxy forum any Samsung galaxy phone...you'll see only Indians Dev....Coz in India mostly people buy Samsung...it's only lg you find less Dev and spica...is I guess Indian Dev...so you bet Indians are good at developing....they are best or not I just want to say that they are really good so kindly don't comment unnecessary plz ....have a great day
[LG Optimus 2x] Core Memory:
A serious problem with XDA is that the messenger is too often shot which causes useful and truthful information to be stifled. I posted his contact information to enable finding out the "truth" about whether or not the O2X/G2X will be getting ICS. If anyone really wants to know what is going on with an ICS or Jellybean update for the O2X/G2X, they now have the means to do that, if they get a response. If no one wants to contact him, they don't have to and can continue to speculate, yes/no, possibly eternally. He's a senior software analyst at LG Soft India and was responsible for overseeing and probably doing some, if not most/all, programming to port Android 2.3.4/Gingerbread to the O2X/G2X. If anyone knows the "truth" about Android updates for the O2X/G2X, it should be him. Anyone else could have done what I did, open up the update files in a hex editor and read them. He put his name and email address in the human readable code which means that he wants credit for his work and wants that known. That makes him "fair game" for being contacted about his work.

Yes, India is where a lot of technological advances have occurred. Indian mathematicians and programmers are renowned for their excellence. Racist or racist-like comments about anyone or any group must not be tolerated and must be deleted.
[LG Optimus 2x] silentmelodies:
The question is, why didn't you just did favor of contacting and asking him the matter? ;)

If I were you, knowing how most people here are inpatient enough and would spam any contact available, I wouldn't have posted those contact info.
[LG Optimus 2x] solrakk6:
when we have our official or the drivers, we will have the chance to implement the usb otg with the ics in the custom roms?! Or no chance for that?! :confused:
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
A polite message to the guy asking to confirm the development of ICS and maybe ask him just once if he could help out the raped and abused o2x community if he could provide a leak if he doesn't reply or says he cannot do that he should be left alone as its his job.

But a simple well put message from 1 person and 1 person only should cause no harm.
[LG Optimus 2x] aMpeX:
your plan is good, but it doesn't work like this in the real world. No way will all the self-entitled geeks keep their fingers idle to await the (if any) reply to that one person.
[LG Optimus 2x] galaxyfitankit:
+1 I agree with you..
[LG Optimus 2x] bliizzz:
His mail box might be overflowing by now
[LG Optimus 2x] ssuds:
Haha yeah, and now the release will be delayed another week as he spends time clearing out his inbox instead of working on the ROM...:eek:
[LG Optimus 2x] kekks:
I am not sure but for which Country is the V21Y update available.....
[LG Optimus 2x] elganso:
Changing topics: Is there a chance that he official ICS supports USB-host mode? Or is it a hardware limitation?
[LG Optimus 2x] Rayman96:
Harsh is working for it but don't make real chances yet.
[LG Optimus 2x] Core Memory:
If he receives a lot of email from Optimus 2X owners and developers, that will send a very strong message to him and LG about how important an ICS update is to us and he'll probably get a new internal LG email address. Even if he has to spend time cleaning out his inbox which I doubt is that time consuming, considering the incredibly unreasonable delay of LG providing Android updates for their phones, waiting an extra week to possibly receive an update because he has to clean out his inbox is of little or no consequence.

---------- Post added at 06:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:00 PM ----------

The hardware limitation is the USB port's ability to supply +5V and the current requirement for USB peripherals/clients. That could be overcome with a special USB cable which supplies the voltage and current from an external source.
[LG Optimus 2x] Ximo F. Verde:
as far as the LG India developer is concerned, i guess that it could actually be a great opportunity to show what a great community the o2x has here in xda. by that i mean that we could somehow organize this, by having a single person asking the question on behalf of all. Obviously, solid knowledge of the issue would be required in order for the mail to be short, clear and to the point.

In reference to that racist comment earlier on, i think its completely unacceptable, here or anywhere else. I personally have posted a really offensive post lately (for which i honestly apologise to everybody), which didnt really help at all and was rightly removed. Same should happen to the aforementioned comment.
[LG Optimus 2x] mparack:
Now LG have another excuse for the delay. Next announcement ICS in 2013 :o
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
Since when do they bother to give excuses? :D
[LG Optimus 2x] daas88:
That José has not replied to any of the 6 mails I sent him, or the friend request in LinkedIn :(

I'll keep bugging him later.

JK ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] ssuds:
This is true. More like next communication from them in Q3 2013. :p Although I'm very psyched for a release with all this insider info coming... Hopefully LG beats motorola and we aren't the last Tegra device to get ICS!
[LG Optimus 2x] Avfcman:
Something feels strange about the 28th August, I have no clue as to what it is, but I think that is when I THINK we will get an update.

Probally is wrong, but hey :p
[LG Optimus 2x] Core Memory:
The 28th of August 2012 is the day after the 27th and the day before the 29th, and it will never occur again, that's its significance.

Just checked for update with LGMobile Support Tool and couldn't find Korea in contry settings. Anybody knows why???

edit: There is a clarification about the phrase "whether or not to apply" in the lg korea tweeter page. It refers to the current test and not for ICS update as whole.

check the source: https://twitter.com/LG_Mobile_/status/232731600213913600

안녕하세요 고객님. 말씀해주신 바와 같이 현재 '적용여부'를 테스트하고 있습니다. 자세한 사항은 내부사정에 의해 전달드리지 못하는 점 양해부탁드립니다. 옵티머스 2X의 ICS O/S 업그레이드 일정은 추후공지를 통해 전달드리겠습니다.

Welcome Guest 'Whether or not to apply, as word for the current test. Thank you note that we do not pass by the inner workings of the details. O Optimus 2X ICS / S upgrade schedule later passed through announcements happy.

As a developer I can tell you that most likely his corporate policy is to steer anybody asking questions straight to public relations and to not reply to inquiries from the general public.

Don't be surprised or upset if you don't receive a response. :)

Anybody saw such boxes with ICS sticker for Optimus 2x?
[LG Optimus 2x] thuloc:
It's Republic of Korea, you should check names start with "R" . There are more options (search lock code, clear lock pattern blah blah ..) if you choose rep of korea
[LG Optimus 2x] fgfgh167:
I found it. thanx :good:
[LG Optimus 2x] ssuds:
It makes popcorn, but without butter! :p
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
even if its from korea, that box doesnt do anything for us since the phone in it is a p970 optimus black... :eek:
[LG Optimus 2x] weebeast:
I received a new lg 2x from RMA 2 weeks ago, without such a sticker on it
[LG Optimus 2x] fgfgh167:
The phone is LGP990, version v20s. ican't understand what are options 'search lockcode" and "pattern lock reset (android os phone).

Of great importance is the following message: "The Cell phone is the latest version already. So you don't need to update."
[LG Optimus 2x] korgndm:
This is not a P990 or a SU-660. If you look at the image, it's quite clear it's a P970. In other words, it has no use for us P990 (Optimus 2X) users that this phone is getting ICS.
[LG Optimus 2x] elganso:
Anyway, any Android phone is ICS upgradable,(G1 proves it), but it doesn't mean your company is really going to do the upgrade :D
[LG Optimus 2x] Supupa:
Every phone is ics compatible. The difference is how well it runs on the phone.
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
The g1 could barly run 2.1 properly i have no idea why anyone is wasting their time making ****ty buggy roms for that phone.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Because they can.
[LG Optimus 2x] Zorkman:
Asked a Korean dude on the LG Korean twitter to translate their update into English, this is what I got:

panic 달도미 ‏@DAL_FISH

"they are testing that ics can be boot from 2x but there is rumor which ics for 2x is near by final"

It seems that Google translate translates it exactly the same as a real life Korean would do... :)
[LG Optimus 2x] galaxyfitankit:
How long they'll take ....are they waiting for 21st December...if world ends than no need to develop and if we survive than they'll start working on ics update...
[LG Optimus 2x] homersimp:
In my opinion, it's better to wait untill they finish their tests, the rom would be more stable.

If they put a beta version most of you would be the first to post critics.
[LG Optimus 2x] Zorkman:
yes/no

as long as the HAL etc works, our devs don't give a damn about the stability of LG's rom

and we'll install CM10 and also don't care about the stability of their rom
[LG Optimus 2x] TheGripper:
You guys are too whiny. Ics is coming, as LG said: "We are testing." Even official release date has not passed.
[LG Optimus 2x] gk141054:
Really? :eek: :eek:
[LG Optimus 2x] silentmelodies:
Yes, Q2 - Q3. They can go ahead and release it in 41 days from now and it'd still be Q3 ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] galaxyfitankit:
Who cares for lg stock ROM we just need drivers...and than we can have our jelly bean...
[LG Optimus 2x] homersimp:
When you buy a car you don't want to buy a car without wheels.

It's the same for a phone.

Ok some customers don't care about finalized versions because they are going to tune it but the majority of users want a stable and functional version.

If LG gives a beta version and if it contains bugs the majority of us would criticate them.

Look at the first gingerbread version, some functionality were missing and everybody claimed about that.

---------- Post added at 01:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:41 PM ----------

99,99999 % of the users cares about the official roms.

0,000001% of geeks just need drivers.
[LG Optimus 2x] Sörnäinen:
That's no excuse for slow work or too low ressources in a large company like LG.

For the guy claiming we are too whiney: Q2 was the official release date, not Q3, and that was already bloody late.

But that's just as it is with most Android producers. They keep pushing new models in the market, neglecting existing customers and further fragmenting the OS. It's a pity.
[LG Optimus 2x] g0at:
Quick question - how good (quick) are LG at publicly making their stuff available for devs? Feasible that anything useful for JB doesn't land for a good month or so after official update?
[LG Optimus 2x] ShunSeb47:
That question is already answered.Do you think we have a leak yet?
[LG Optimus 2x] g0at:
.. A leak by definition is something not intended to reach the public domain. I was questioning something that is..
[LG Optimus 2x] homersimp:
Prior to buy the 2X i had a HTC Kaiser.

Only 1 update in 5 years.

I bought it when it appears and the video card driver was not included.

The driver appeared 1,5 year after.

And then no update.

I bought the 2X in april 2011.

The firmware was 20B.

They are now in 20Y.

24 updates in one year i don't call it "slow".
[LG Optimus 2x] kekks:
We understand that it takes time to release an upgrade version & since android ICS is different than Gingerbread..... We are more pissed on LG coz as their official deadline was missed, they have not come forward and made an official statement on how & when they are going to release the upgrage.....

We are still waiting for a confirmation from LG that they would release ICS for our 2x...
[LG Optimus 2x] loipol84:
LOL!!!!

Seriously though I don't like trolls when I have paid 300€ and haven't got a single update!!!!
[LG Optimus 2x] homersimp:
You bought it yesterday ?

Here you can find a not complete list of official updates.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=12890619#post12890619

We are now in version 20Y.

So if you don't have a single update:

1) your phone is up to date

2) you don't have a 2X

3) you are the "troll".

And you are unlucky if you paid it 300€.

I bought it in april 2011: -31€.

Price: 169€

Lg gave me 100€

My operator gave me 100€.

So the phone was for free and i had 31€.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
20A through Y have not been updates, different countries have different letters.

Some have been updates, sure, but it doesn't work how you think.

The official version for the handset I owned is still V20G.
[LG Optimus 2x] loipol84:
Seriously Android is on version 4.1.1.

LG O2x is on 2.3.4 for almost a year and on 2.2 for 6 months.....

Where the hell those 24 updates went Mr ;

Or you call updates the change of a letter on the same buggy as hell firmware;
[LG Optimus 2x] homersimp:
My computer works with windows 7 released on 2009.

Where the hell are the windows updates ?

Every week my computer updates by itself.

---------- Post added at 03:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:53 PM ----------

I'm jocking but i think that you must be patient.

LG is a phone seller, it's not like a software seller who need to update everytime.

If you've got a two years old phone and you want the last version of software you might buy a new one.

It's almost the case for the other phone manufacturers.

My HTC Kaiser was in windows 6.0

One year after they made the 6.1 but not the 6.5 or 7.

But they sold other phones with the same core and same ram with these new firmwares.
[LG Optimus 2x] tahahawa:
The official version for my phone is v11h, which is android 2.2.2. I never got a single official update on my wind p999.
[LG Optimus 2x] machoman1337:
So if LG does release an official ICS ROM, does that guarantee that XDA devs can extract the drivers from there to use in a CM9 build? I hate stock ROMs with all the OEM skins layered on top, and if the only ICS I can use is LG's own then I'll stick with CM7.

Just asking since Nvidia is always so closed source about everything.
[LG Optimus 2x] loipol84:
I don't want the latest version of android that's the point!!

I want the version of software that was latest when my phone was 9 months old....

Or you will tell me to buy a new phone again;
[LG Optimus 2x] homersimp:
If i well understood, CM team developpers will go directly to a Jelly Beam CM10 version.

And they can extract the HAL that they need from the ICS official version.
[LG Optimus 2x] wfd:
Good news from official russian LG twitter: https://twitter.com/LG_Russia/status/237488547999920128

They have official confirmation from korean office about release of ICS for 2X and Black in nearest time in Korea.
[LG Optimus 2x] homersimp:
If today i buy a GPS TOMTOM 2012.

Next year tomtom create a new software with new functions.

If i want them i need to buy the update.

For the phone, the update is for free.

LG pays people to develop software for old versions of phone and they lose money for that but they do it.

Where is it written that they've got to lose money to follow all the updates for all the products that they sell ?

I'm pretty sure that if tomorrow, we ask you to pay if you want ICS, you will say that Gingerbread is sufficient.
[LG Optimus 2x] Pascalwb:
