Hmpf... were is Ricardo, haven't seen him online for a week.

He didn't post anything development related at G+ either.

We have to wait a little more :)

Oh and I love the increase in facepalm pictures since I added one to my post - there were way too less at our forum :D
[LG Optimus 2x] Rayman96:
Maybe one from our devs can look into it.

*insert facepalm* Tonyp mentioned Ricardo...he's our God with our devices...all hail arcee :P
[LG Optimus 2x] slebit:
I really hope that this is what we need. But I seriously doubt it...
[LG Optimus 2x] Rayman96:
I mentioned local devs. Arcee is global dev for all Lg devices. My bad in creating correct sensence :)
[LG Optimus 2x] jura55:
The main question of these days is: What will be earlier? RC interview or ICS for O2X :laugh:
[LG Optimus 2x] darkshot:
I think the RC interview.
[LG Optimus 2x] daas88:
If we ever get the official ICS upgrade, let's make sure to say thanks to LG, at least a hypocrite thank you. Positive feedback might encourage them to keep making upgrades for their phones in the future. Like giving a cookie to a dog when it sits.

If they don't release the upgrade, let's make sure they know how dissatisfied we are.

Offtopic: The O2X community should be a bit more organized, here's my (or should I say our?) story:

I had a cheap huawei with android 2.1 before the o2x, with some problems that would be solved with at least froyo. The phone was specifically designed for Venezuela in partnership with one of our national carriers. Our community (about 5000 people that joined the device's unofficial facebook group) organized a raid to huawei facebook pages, known company emails and twitter accounts, asking for an upgrade. They gave in to our requests and after 4 months or so released the froyo upgrade.

Because they listen to their customers (or at least we forced them to, lol), I wanted to buy another Huawei phone to replace the cheap one, but most good models weren't available in my country or in amazon and I ended up with the LG.
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
Or... we spit in their face, flip them off and decide never to buy anything from that freaking company again.
[LG Optimus 2x] FatherJony:
This. You can shout, you can flood them with posts, call their support ten times a day, but LG like any other company isn't in it to make you happy. Their one and only purpose is to make profit. If you trully want to convince them that a change in their support policy is in their best interests, you have to vote with yout wallet. Don't buy their products, even if you like them or think they offer great value and educate people as to why you have come to this decision. It's as simple as that and it actually works. They can release ICS for the p990 tommorow for all i care, i will still not buy their products till they change their ways. I will only give my money to companies that actually respect their consumers and that's that.
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
Oh, don't get me wrong. With my post I just wanted to conrast the "we should thank them" post.

I will neither thank them nor give them sh*t, I have accepted the situation a long time ago and am trying to do the best with the ressources we have.

But I won't buy LG devices again, that's just my personal reaction to their customer support.

I used to have a LG notebook as well, had problems with them there too.

There are enough companies around which offer better service.
[LG Optimus 2x] FatherJony:
I know, i don't think i got your wrong, it's just that in my opinion your way is the way that consumers should behave in order to promote their interests to the market. I simply tried to explain why i think this reasoning is sound. Look at Sony for example, they used to have atrocius support, but poor sales made them reconsider and now allmost all their 2011 phones are running android 4. HTC was also forced to unlock their bootloaders.

Some companies care about their image. All companies care about sales.
[LG Optimus 2x] Dnst:
We can expect anything from LG these days. I really question this company's probity by now.

dont really care about the camera just now... well done on every thing else... im in aw of all devs doing such great work making it easy for the rest of us. im still learning but with all you guys laying the ground work its a lot easier too...

thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] Imperticus:
This is just ridiculously hard, I'm thinking of giving up. one error after another. it boots but no screen wth?!
[LG Optimus 2x] m0fizor:
No launcher maybe? As far as i know, the Google launcher is not opensource. Try to merge Trebuchet Launcher.
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Then you know how we felt originally xD And I can tell ya, it doesn't get much easier as you progress. But you might be able to come help me and Benee with some stuff. If you want to that is
[LG Optimus 2x] Raphyo:
Wait.

Kiljacken, Bennee and Imperticus working together to port ICS ? Woot!
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
You forgot Dentette, and that one other guy I don't really know what to call
[LG Optimus 2x] xXZaufiXx:
Maybe you can update the table on google docs?

Really want to know whats going on :)

[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
No updates == Not any progress lately
[LG Optimus 2x] sibbor:
Been checking in at least 4-5 times/day since 17th of Jan. :-)

You said you [guys|Benee] were close to resolve the audio issues; what does that mean? Audio routing correct? Other issues? Mic? Speaker? Loud speaker? Intermittent audio available (like on CM7 at first)?

As you understand - we're all hyped about this.

And of course, thanks for your efforts. Will overwhelm you with thanks in the ROM thread, once available. ;-)
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
We are really close. The current problem is the audio library using the wrong channels, and a crash when pluggin in headset. So there obviously still is a bit wrong. The last thing I heard from Benee was the audio library trying to play via a non existing A2DP device, instead of using the speakers. You guys should drop by the vorkKernel irc, as I feel it would be better for exchanging thoughts and stuff.
[LG Optimus 2x] TrZ69:
I hope that you and Benee can solve this problem soon and that we can have a test rom for the end of this week!
[LG Optimus 2x] flo-95:
Hey,

I also want to have ICS on the P990, but please let them only do their work on the ROM without any pressure of us users. That makes it much easier for them.

If you really want to have an ICS-ROM this weekend, try developing for yourself ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] TrZ69:
I don't want to take pressure to developer, i only hope that we can have ics soon :)

Unfortunately i don't know how to develop a rom :(
[LG Optimus 2x] V.Dragos:
i guess if you start learning today you could tie with LG for the release date :p
[LG Optimus 2x] TrZ69:
No, this is impossible :p

Anyway i don't ask anything more about the rom..

Only wait for a test how the rest of p990 user ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] vitaminxero:
Hm... how about asking Supercurio about audio? He might be aware of it back when he was getting voodoo working on the O2X.
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Supercurio probably wouldn't be able to help much. He works with kernel drivers, but here we are working with the userspace drivers
[LG Optimus 2x] Wadka:
Hey, I heard that the hardware acceleration in ICS is supposed to bring in the feature that game developers no more need to write multiple game versions for each GPU. Is that true?
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Not a chance in hell. Games in Android already have H/W acceleration.
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Nope, it has nothing to do with that. But if the game is written properly it wont need several versions.
[LG Optimus 2x] peshal:
Pretty much Nexus, Sony and Asus are the way to go. Lg devices never again very slow, unresonable, buggy update. So if you buy LG you will never get updates or if you get too it will be very slow which is impractical. And if you buy phone with nvidia chip beside nexus device, never expect the nvidea hardware to work when new android is announced until the phone manufacturer releases the update. If you have an nvidia chip you are already a step back and if you have nvidia on lg devices you are way back in updates!
[LG Optimus 2x] RknDroidFreak:
The fact is that the other side of the lawn always looks greener!!
[LG Optimus 2x] Sörnäinen:
Someone HAD to deliver this stereotype to this discussion. ;) Yes, true, it's easy to forget other manufacturers have similar problems with updates and customer support.

So hopefully everyone who is angry about LG researches the problems of his new device provider beforehand.

Reading that people want to switch to Motorola (!) gives me the creeps, for example.
[LG Optimus 2x] g0at:
I'm seriously starting to doubt we'll ever see ICS..

I can't get my head around the fact that there hasn't been a leak, be it in form of code or information about this release (if it really is in a testing stage.. as we keep being told).. I would have thought that someone that knows someone that works for LG would have posted here by now.
[LG Optimus 2x] grognaz:
the fact is that the lawn on the nexus side is a lot greener:D
[LG Optimus 2x] RknDroidFreak:
Don't get me wrong, I still feel we must kind-of revolt against LG and Nvidia. I just mean to say switching to other brands isn't really a solution.

I feel you, in fact I'm getting my Nexus 7 and Galaxy Nexus in few days days.

And I'm starting to like LG for its strategy of delaying updates until people don't ask for updates anymore. I myself am an example.
[LG Optimus 2x] jonnyair:
Well since, motorola is owned by google, there is a chance they'll get their update policy straight.

don't get me wrong, i've owned a motorola milestone and i really know how bad their update policy is. but i hope they'll improve...

either way, my next phone will have a "nexus" in its name ;)

it seems to be the only way to get fairly quick updates
[LG Optimus 2x] Sörnäinen:
I don't trust any of those corporations the least bit, and Motorola won't see a Penny from me ever again.

Xiaomi for me, if I stick to Android at all. ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] Classifeeds:
There is one upside to LG's lack of updates, the second hand value of their phone will drop.

I wouldn't even try to sell my O2x (I'd get laughed at) but a O4x at a cheap price due to lack of updates, now that's appealing.
[LG Optimus 2x] Sörnäinen:
:) True enough.
[LG Optimus 2x] luka2858:
o i agree,thats what i am waiting for.
[LG Optimus 2x] msedek:
Unless you have houses in both sides... I got lg/Samsung/nexus phones and tablets so far despite the fact that nexus gets the updates as soon as Google releases it.. The hardware (processor /gpu) are way outdated..

Samsung has top line hardware and regularly updated the software.. Maybe a little delay 2/3 months but in the end they provide the software.. I don't like much the pentile screens but the hardware quality and updates are ok

Lg has pretty screens.. And very nice design and quality design but the software updates and customer support its awful...

There's not a perfect balance.. Something like Lg design/nexus updates speed/Samsung revolutionary devices like the galaxy note this would beat any day anything/company out there
[LG Optimus 2x] el_charlie:
Well, I just sold my 2x and bought a Galaxy Nexus.

The way outdated hardware is not accurate. In fact it's way faster than my 2x in every way even if it has more pixels to render.

I get more smooth gameplay with the nexus than the 2x.

Remember, the nexus phones and tablets are not oriented in top notch hardware. It's the software that's very optimized and makes that hardware run faster.

I tried a Galaxy S3 and I still prefer the GNex.

If you want a very pleasant experience, get a Nexus.

The oem skins simply sucks.

I would buy LG only if they make the next nexus phone.
[LG Optimus 2x] scalle288:
Finally some word from LG Netherlands:

We're sad to tell you that we have no clarity about the ICS update in the BeNeLux for the O2X and the Optimus black. We regret this and we realize that this can be very annoying for the users of these smartphones. Of course we keep them informed when we have more information.

Nothing usefull here sadly. :(
[LG Optimus 2x] lap33733:
Well, I have also lost hope. Just bought padfone. Nevertheless still miss bright LCD from 2x, now resting somewhere in my desk.

Selling it might be a mistake, no value at all.
[LG Optimus 2x] sMhsn:
Finally HTC confirned that they will be rolling out ICS by the end of August for Thunderbold & Desire S:

[LG Optimus 2x] nuvo84:
Sorry for changing the subject...Has any dev from here seen this? https://bitbucket.org/ergoen/star-newk-36/src/fe7bbe76ce37/arch/arm/mach-tegra/Kconfig

This is not a possible device with "similar drivers", don't worry.. :P

Looks like an effort to create an 2.6.36 kernel.

If it's posted before and it's useless, delete this post.
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
Optimized software does not make hardware run faster this statement makes no f**king sense at all.
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
Gosh I think I need to unsubscribe from this topic.. :D
[LG Optimus 2x] msedek:
You have stolen my words xD

@charlie And come on.. You seriously going to compare jelly bean to ginger bread? Lol

Little explanation optimized means.. Software developer manage to code tasks in fewer steps, or reducing the lines of code merging functions or procedures together (and any kind of other things) So the processor execute an action in less time but at the same speed...

If you code something with 10 lines and the processor execute a single line in 1 second, that means the whole processes will take 10 seconds

Now if you manage to code the same process in 6 lines now the whole process will take 6 seconds

That's optimized software.. How does that makes the hardware runs faster? (as you can see the processor it's still running 1 line of code per second)
[LG Optimus 2x] Sörnäinen:
Point****ing much!? ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] bech5:
That's not what he meant to say. Ofcourse optimized software does not physically make any hardware run faster. The hardware can only run as fast as it can. Well-optimized software, however, can run a lot faster/smoother on slower hardware, where as state of the art hardware with crappy software may give you a laggy/slow experience. That's all he meant... and he is right. The GNex may not have state of the art hardware, but the software is well optimized. Throwing your money at Samsung's, LG's, Sony's etc. latest flag ship device may not be the best "bang for the bug" (pun intended), just because the specs sounds crazy. That's one thing we ought to learn from the shenanigans that is the O2x.
[LG Optimus 2x] msedek:
That's why teams like cyanogenmod exist.. Gosh.. Run Cm10 on gnex and run Cm10 on s3.. And tell me?

It's the exact same software on different hardware.. Analogy go run windows 7 on the old pentium core 2 duo then run windows 7 on a core i7...

Gnex its a development platform and won't ever perform task like way more advanced hardware...
[LG Optimus 2x] ergoen:
Those are my experiments, however I never managed to get it to boot, too many things are missing (most importantly, time!).

I worked on that for a while mostly to get an understanding for how the kernel works etc. I do not think getting a newer kernel would help with our ics problems though.

For anyone out there who wants to try to continue with that, the panel code in that repo is probably useless (use nvidia whistler panel code instead, I think it's a closer match to our screen than the su880), also the power code is not done, I think the su880 codes from lg could be of help here though (we're using max8907c AND max8952 just like the SU880, while the nvidia whistler only uses 8907c!). Pinmux, and memory code should be fine though.

I will have newer (and maybe better? :P) code up at the repo https://bitbucket.org/ergoen/star-newk-3.1 soon. Still not booting though!

This is completely off topic though as it will (most likely) not help at all at gettig ics!
[LG Optimus 2x] nuvo84:
Ok, sorry for that..
[LG Optimus 2x] ergoen:
It's ok, I don't mind, just saying that this should not get your hopes up (at all).
[LG Optimus 2x] nuvo84:
Don't worry, even if I am an optimistic person, I am not optimistic with LG, so my hopes are way far down..

[LG Optimus 2x] Dimitris CH:
Now that official CM9 is out, does this mean that CM9 builds for the O2X will be working better?
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
No, it's basically the same thing we're working on, just with another version string.
[LG Optimus 2x] machoman1337:
No, you still need official LG ICS drivers.

I'm a noob at custom ROMs and even I know this! In before the next guy posts "hey we can port ICS drivers from a non-LG tegra 2!"

No, it isn't. It's topic to talk about ics sources released by google. But it changed to ics for o2x (what is reasonable). But not begging thread/i don't like o2x/LG is....

Topic outchanged beacause some people have to beg somewhere...
[LG Optimus 2x] Sörnäinen:
Yeah. I don't share your opinion. There is no news about ICS, and there probably won't be for another month or two, if at all.

So the only thing that a thread like this can cover is how users cope with the lack of updates. Since any other thread about ICS is being closed, this one collects all the whining. Understandable whining, that is.
