[LG Optimus 2x] vitaminxero:
I'm under the impression it's both an Nvidia and LG thing. If LG had made modifications to the hardware such as the cellular modem (I know the G2x has a qualcomm modem. O2x has one of a different company. It's in their tech manuals.) then it may come down to LG to get that out. Anything that's universal across the Tegra 2 family is up to Nvidia, such as the GPU.

Nvidia and LG have done neither.
[LG Optimus 2x] Core Memory:
Yes, LG is also to blame.

Although the Optimus 2X and the G2X are almost identical, LG changed enough to technically differentiate them such as different cell radio modem chips, different file structures, etc. so that porting of ICS from one to the other is required. It is possible to provide ICS and keep the existing baseband for whichever modem is used. LG has stated it will provide ICS for the Optimus 2X in the 2nd quarter of 2012 but hasn't made any committment to doing that for the G2X. There's been a lot of progress by independent developers porting ICS to the Optimus 2X and G2X but the effort for the G2X appears to be suspended which is why there's so much interest by G2X owners in what is happening with ICS for the Optimus 2X and hope someone will port that to the G2X.
[LG Optimus 2x] C0D3N1N3R:
We can write on their facebook, G+, twitter pages and can send them e-mails in a predefined format, like the ASUS customers did.
[LG Optimus 2x] mediavieja:
Do you mind showing me a link of an ics rom for the optimus 2x? Cause i havent seen any here or in the developing section :(
[LG Optimus 2x] Thegn:
I'm also a tad pessimistic about us recieving full ICS sources from NVidia and LG anytime soon. LG is just releasing their new Prada phone, with Gingerbread. I've read elsewhere that Prada will be the first phone that will recieve the ICS update. After that comes O2X and some others (slated for Q2). In Q3 some more LG phones will recieve the update.

So, from a business standpoint, it would not be good to update older phones with ICS right now, as that would probably lesser the sales of the new phones being released with ICS during this spring. ICS is a sales argument. My guess is that we will see an official update for ICS on our O2X some months after the first sales batch of the new ICS phones.

But, one could always hope :)
[LG Optimus 2x] SP1996AC:
No link yet, we have to wait ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] baen:
That is the biggest lie in the corporate world. And Samsung and HTC already have realized that. Honestly there are 2 types of smartphone buyers hardcore users (like us) and common users, hardcore users upgrade their phone way more times than common users and theses users usually buy mid-end phones. The big difference is common users don't really upgrade their software and hardcore users do, and when a manufacturer doesn't update their phone for illogical reasons they will stop buying phones from that manufacturer and take many buyers with them.

This is my view... For example I'll never ever buy another phone from LG or with nvidia hardware, and the same thing happens to all my less tech-savvy friends I have. They just lost a dozen of buyers because of this. Now multiply this by thousands of users...
[LG Optimus 2x] Thegn:
I maybe should have been more detailed. Quote: "From an *LG* business standpoint..." :p Of course it is correct what you say, seen from us users perspective. I probably will never buy and LG phone again myself.

HTC and Samsung will slow their development pace of new phones. But that shift and change of business takes awhile. The phone developers must at this time, make money on what they have spent for over half a year developing new phones. So shifting business model from pumping out high, mid, and low-end phones every half year, takes a little while. They must get ROI (Return Of Investment), before we can see new new business model normalized, where they develop fewer phones/year, but hopefully with better quality, better firmware and better updates.

I don't think LG will announce ICS for the old phones before the new phones announced this spring will start to sell and have been out for awhile. Again, ROI, for money invested last year. Our O2X still have quite a impressive hardware, and is today quite cheap. If it would get ICS before LG's new high end phones it would compete with the new phones with a good price, good hardware, and ICS. I don't think LG will risk that just yet.

But that is just what I think and how I speculate :) I could indeed be very wrong. In fact, I hope that! I hope LG/NVidia releases full source codes, and that we get an official ICS upgrade from LG the very first day in Q2! :)

The g2x is not maintained by LG hense why its called a t-mobile g2x..... it is up to your carrier eg. t-mobile to release an ICS rom not LG. Please activate brains cells and put them to work that is what they are there for.

[LG Optimus 2x] Imperticus:
there's still a bit of hack in actually getting the GL renderer to work, but its not like before where there was no GL rendering (from what i understood). It is compatible with camera hack. Multimedia includes playing/recording video, and a few other stuff. It's not perfect yet, still has bugs...

RC also said face unlock is close to getting fixed ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] vipaman:
Thanks at ton.....I hope it comes to g2x soon!!!!!!
[LG Optimus 2x] Dekudan:
Yup, it means a completely unsupported build will be out. That's REALLY cool!

Well done RC, but we can't deny the devs here who've created some excellent work.

And also, poll to see if he releases it. Pretty obvious that everyone's voting yes. AWESOME

Anyway, what are we waiting for right now? Lg to drop kernel source right?
[LG Optimus 2x] tophelecool:
sorry to butt in here! just sticking my head around the door to ask what is to all of you a very obvious answer. you all talk about cm 10. my understanding is that cm 10 is based around jelly bean not ics. current cm 7 is gb for the 2x is it not? Surely the next update for my 2x regarding a usable cm will be 9 based around ics and not jelly bean??!
[LG Optimus 2x] ssuds:
Nope, devs aren't working on CM9 anymore, its kinda wasted effort since CM10 is similar enough that they can make it work.
[LG Optimus 2x] tophelecool:
Thanks for that clarification. so if I update to cm 10 when it's available then we'll be going straight to jelly bean and skipping ics? correct?
[LG Optimus 2x] Ximo F. Verde:
CM9=ICS, CM10=JB so yes
[LG Optimus 2x] xilw3r:
yes, jelly bean (4.1) is cm 10. i havent tried the hack fest roms of cm 10, but i hear they are might smooth. so yea, i got nothing against skipping ics :) just need for lg to gather their sht together and release it
[LG Optimus 2x] tophelecool:
crazy ****! I can hear you all saying.... well dddduuuurrr! but having just bought the phone and with LG still sitting on ics I find that almost two mental to be true which is why I asked. There again.. it's all about marketing jelly bean as part of their new devices i guess. I just hope we don't end up with a situation where the stock ics is better/more stable than CM 10 jelly bean. Stock lg bloat drives me potty!
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:

Google never released source if im not mistaking, or they released it after ICS or something like that..

[LG Optimus 2x] ssuds:
That'll never be the case. Plus, you can get rid of the LG bloat using titanium backup.
[LG Optimus 2x] kaspar737:
Yeah, Google said they didn't want people to port Honeycomb to phones.
[LG Optimus 2x] korgndm:
There really isnt any advantage using Honeycomb on smartphones now. Almost all the phones that come out have either GB or ICS, which in my opinion is more reliable.
[LG Optimus 2x] Ferrum Master:

[LG Optimus 2x] karthik1der:
does anyone else feel it's weird that lg released the official as soon as we got a leak?

its like as soon as they found out about the leak.. they decided to release the official themselves as there is no point in not releasing it anymore.
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
Big enterprises like LG don't act and react on small things like a post on a forum.

Actually it does look pretty straight forward - we first had access-restricted SU660 leaks - soon afterwards we got access. Recently there was a SU660 ROM found on a non R&D link - with restriced access. And soon afterwards it got officially released.

hopefully today will released the source code, and finally we get the fully worked cm10 :)

Bleh misread !~! Actually it only took a few (1~2ish) days, less than a week :)

*Crossing my fingers for source code for tomorrow!!
[LG Optimus 2x] sane?:
Can I just point out that since LG know RC won't release his CM10 work till the SU660 source code is released. And since no other ROM maker can release fixed up ROMs till they have that (or the source) to work on .....

.... LG have no incentive to release the source code till they have released their 2X ICS ROM.

People could be in for a long wait if anyone in LG has a political mindset.
[LG Optimus 2x] Pascalwb:
I don't think so, they released black source after day, they could hold it too

Would be Lucky if we get Source code by next week, but what I think that might not be the case.

They would be knowing that If source code for SU660 is released Our Devs would be able to create a better Rom for P990, so it will be a waste LG releasing ICS for P990.

My guess would be on when P990 gets official ICS...

Sorry guys.. no offence ... just my intuition ..

That's sonething LG doesn't give any ***t about. Wether the devs can make a better Rom for us or not doesn't matter for LG as it's uninteresting for 90 percent of the customers...

sent from my mobile device
[LG Optimus 2x] heavencanwait:
Yeah, I guess not more than a few percent of android users actually root their phones. And even if someone roots it for them, they don't use/need it. My wife's galaxy is rooted and has MIUI based on 2.3.7 and she is perfectly happy, working like a charm, she says. It's rooted only because I used it for a month before her and I just couldn't stand Touchwiz. Had it been her using the phone it probably would have been with whatever version it was supplied.

My point is that I guess like 95% of the android users don't need root and don't care for custom roms and are really scared to brick their device for like $500 so they depend on official updates, crappy as they might be. So I agree that LG, Samsung or whoever makes phones would not hold an update just because there is a strong possibility that some hacking community will release a better piece of software than the official one. They don't give a _****_ about that community. I know I wouldn't either.
[LG Optimus 2x] arnookie:
I really don't know anyone who has not got root. Everyone I know have rooted and use custom roms.

Most even do this, especially root on first day they get the phone.
[LG Optimus 2x] LarsPT:
I guess we need proper statistics on what percentage of the android population customize their phones... in my "social network" I know a lot of people that root and customize their devices, but my social network is mainly electrical/electronics engineers, so I am guessing it's not a very good population sample :)
[LG Optimus 2x] sane?:
http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32694348&postcount=7029

As I said, its likely that LG won't release the source code until they have had the chance to release their own ROM.

Who the hell is going to do all that work, and see it supplanted before its released.
[LG Optimus 2x] Pascalwb:
But they released their rom in Korea, they don't give a *** about eu etc... . Look on Black, rom only for korean version and source code after 1-2 days.
[LG Optimus 2x] solrakk6:
+1 exactly what i said!!
[LG Optimus 2x] kingvortex:
The rom is released already. LG are obligated to release the source code for the SU660 rom now it has been pushed out publicly.

As for conspiracy theories on them holding it back so they aren't shown up by custom roms, they released the source for the Korean version of the Optimus Black straight after the ICS upgrade and way before any international release of ICS for the Black.

Some people are really over thinking the reasons for the delay in the ICS upgrade and/or source code. LG don't care about a small amount of people on a forum complaining or more talented devs creating better roms from their work, it is simply a combination of not caring enough about supporting old devices and not having enough competent Android developers to deliver on their promises on schedule or even in a timely manner.
[LG Optimus 2x] KoRRo89:
only 7 of my friends uses android phones. 1 have no root and no custom rom, 1 have buyed an used phone with pre installed custom rom and root but he didn't know and it's not interested in it, 1 have a rooted china phone but he can't find a custom rom for it, 3 have root and custom rom but they changed it a long time ago and the didn't search for other roms since then. the last one is contantly searching for a better rom like me...
[LG Optimus 2x] tr@p:
A bit offtopic question... did Galaxy R recieve official update (ICS)?
[LG Optimus 2x] Wimz3n:
I know several. But they dont get the fun. I actually had this conversation with an sgsiii user. He claimed his phone worked 100% and didnt need root. I showed him the meaning of root. He just smiled and said "I dont need that". I asked what phone he has before. "Iphone" he replied.

I rest my case...
