Id run out of space i don't play too many games anymore but someone they need alot of sd space and that adds up, plus my porn is like 32gb so not good enough :p.

Even when i have no intention of using a massive amount of sd space id still like to have it so i don't need to think about it and therefor don't need to ration it.

If music is what you listen on a phone....then why spend so much on a smartphone as powerful as nexus 4??....even a cheap low end nokia can do that or those low end androids.
[LG Optimus 2x] Sörnäinen:
There are lots of things you can do.with a smartphone that need a fast processor, but not much storage. Good grief.
[LG Optimus 2x] deewhy:
I've found that most smartphone users are extremely narrow minded.

Their thought process is usually along the lines of, "You don't use your phone the same way as me? Then you're using it wrong!"

random example:

User1: "The Galaxy Nexus has a subpar camera for my uses"

User2: "There's nothing wrong with the Galaxy Nexus, you shouldn't be using a smartphone to take serious pictures in the first place"

Only questions now :confused:

Hi

Have anyone any information if there ever will be a ICS release for LG P990? I mean "whats in it for me => What´s in it for LG?" They promised an ICS update long time ago. But it seems like there is SW issues somewhere. LG released V28E and V28G as a test (undercover beta test?) But the bugs maybe is to tricky?

SO

Do anyone have any information ( I meant resent information related to leaks V28E and V28G not old promises from summer) about IF there will be an ICS release to P990 from LG?

I would also like to know if there is any connection between that Stefan Gündhör "left us" and that development on ICS is stalled?

They DID run into serious trouble, and the O2x is end of life for a long while. I think they will quietly drop the ICS update. I stopped waiting for it.

But 100% from other company,than LG.... (Nexus 4 could be an exception - but is impossible to buy now, and here in Czech republic it will be selling directly by LG and the price? - $600 for 16GB... LG is tottaly mad company)
[LG Optimus 2x] tophelecool:
I don't understand where the pessimism is coming from. Why would LG release several leaks of what is clearly a very nearly finished update.. Only to then not bother. It wouldn't make sense. If they were going to halt development they'd have done it ages ago.. Surely the progression in the leak name tells us its a project still in process and it wouldn't do them any favours to piss us off this close to the finish line.

How can we trust that 30A link if its says it's not found instead of Forbidden?

So, how can we be so sure there is a 30A version on LG's servers??
[LG Optimus 2x] nk7600:
I personally think LG won't bother with 2X anymore. Problem is, mobiles update that quickly & even the 4X is starting to be classed as old now. I have stopped hoping for ICS now as its Jelly Bean & the upcoming Key Lime Pie am more interested in.

As many people, I bought into the Tegra Hype when the 2X was first launched. However, the lack of updates have REALLY made me make a huge choice on my next fone purchases. I will only ever buy Nexus fones now, as most manufacturers are more bothered about Money. So, although I will be buying the LG Nexus 4. I think its sad that LG have treated customers in such a negative way. Yes, they haven't said that they aren't bringing us ICS but lets all be honest now. LG JUST AREN'T GOING TO UPDATE THE 2X. Like most people on here, am angry with LG for leading us customers on but I believe they did intend to update the 2X but as technology changes & they release newer fones. Most people move on & upgrade leaving a select few with the old device that aren't interested in updates. I for one aren't looking for the 2X to ever be updated now. That time has been and gone imho, its now about acceptance that LG have been promising something that was never really going to come to reality. How long do we keep believing that LG will come through???, another 6 months?, another year?... Before people start to see that it doesn't take this long to give one update?!. Jesus, they have released the Optimus G, 4X & now Nexus 4. All of which have ICS or higher. Its just my 2 cents worth but its time everybody woke up & realised what's happening or not as the case has shown!.

Wanna bet on it? :) I have no idea when exactly it will be out, but my bet is that ICS will definitely be released. Time will tell (I hope not very long time)...
[LG Optimus 2x] Sörnäinen:
It's quite simple: Other devices have been updated, O2x has problems, LG does not put many developers on it, they ran into an issue they can't easily solve and sit it out.

You will see.
[LG Optimus 2x] frikou:
Thanks for clearing that up, I had my doubts.
[LG Optimus 2x] Core Memory:
I agree with you. LG has announced, more than once after it was accused of not providing ICS for the O2X, that it will release it for the Optimus 2X.

[LG Optimus 2x] machoman1337:
Old news (nov 30). But they say that all the time... remember when LG was supposed to deliver the update by the end of Q3?

Still, given that cmahendra's leaker picked up leaked kdzs for European P990s and even the Singapore (SE Asia) version, I'm sure we will get the update, and later sources.

The only region that is confirmed to not get an official ICS update is North America, due to LG Canada officially saying they wouldn't update it and the fact that most North American models are actually the P999/G2X which was also confirmed to not get it way back. In fact, Canadian O2X models (both the Fido P990 and the wind P999) didn't even get the gingerbread update! Also important is that in NA the carriers have a lot of control over android updates and even bootloader status for most models, hence other regions tend to get updates first while we have to wait or simply not get it.

And even if the ICS update for Europe/SE Asia comes out this month, we won't get CM10 updates resumed till sources come out which could be in January. When the SU660 got its promised update, it took over a month to get sources.
[LG Optimus 2x] kt-Froggy:
Sorry, that's not correct...The last official update for Fido P990hN was GB V25h.
[LG Optimus 2x] machoman1337:
Oops my bad, yeah the Fido P990 got the update. Still, Fido continues to sell the phone with Froyo in the box which is quite laughable.
[LG Optimus 2x] bernassantos:
Awesome :laugh:
[LG Optimus 2x] kt-Froggy:
Wow, I didn't even know they were still selling them... I was actually told by a Fido rep it was discontinued. Just checked the web site, and they are offering it for free with 2-yr contract...
[LG Optimus 2x] ilrolfo:
Many Thanks!

Hi

Read all your good posts after my question.

Tanks for all your answer!.

It would be very nice if LG would release a ICS for O2X.

But I will never bet my money on that ;)

I will say goodbye forever to LG now, do not like to wait longer for a stable ICS device

(And my recommendation will be "never LG", Because if the promise an update I to think that they should keep this promise)

Looking right now for a android ICS device (with expected better support then what LG could give)

Will press "Thanks" button for all of you that care to answer

Many thanks!!
[LG Optimus 2x] steve9127:
Everybody will probably say Nexus 4. After my experience with LG I will never buy a phone from them again (my last 2 phones were LG).

I didn't sell my O2x. I like flashing roms (yeah, O2x is good at that), but I'm not happy I had to pay a lot of money (I got the O2x when it was new) and always "work" on the phone myself.

I recomend you try the Note 2. I just got it and I totally love it.

[LG Optimus 2x] Sörnäinen:
Check the web before deciding for Nexus 4. I don't know if it is resolved by now, but the Nexus 4 was not an AOSP device, indicating problems ahead with updates.

I decisively would not buy LG. The hardware of the O2x had lots of issues, and I am not supporting companies who treat customers this way.

[LG Optimus 2x] Sörnäinen:
Constant BSODs, sudden reboots, freezes, laggy screens. Not all of these issues apply for any single O2x, but all of them have been very present.

Mine had pretty much all of the above, and no update ever helped resolve it.
[LG Optimus 2x] txarito:
ummm, i think you are wrong, if you aren't talking about GB(Cyano for me). If you talk about ICS/JB, then yes, but these bugs in these versions are known.

But if you are talking about GB (at least for me is CM7.2), you're making a huge error. With CM7.2 I've never had a single problem like that, not one, maybe you're in stock roms. ;)

Thanks!!!!
[LG Optimus 2x] kestrelv2:
For starters no one said this you just made it up like a moron, 2nd we already have a good few stable ICS roms for our phone so it doesn't really matter to us that much anymore.
[LG Optimus 2x] Sörnäinen:
Lucky for you. I had all of these problems, that's why I wanted the ICS update, since LG support promised it would iron out these issues.

Issues that were VERY existing in a LARGE number of devices, even if you happened to be lucky.
[LG Optimus 2x] machoman1337:
Agreed. My O2X had more issues than I would have liked. CM7.2 did make it reasonably stable, but it was still at risk of BSOD or random app FCs every once in a while, compared to lower end non LG phones I used. Then for a month, I made the mistake of getting an LG Optimus LTE P930 which random-rebooted like crazy due to LG's terrible ICS binaries (sold that crap, thank god). With the O2X, LG at least had the excuse that the first gen tegra 2 chips were flawed and difficult to dev for. With the P930 they were using the same qualcomm chips as other manufacturers - no excuse there. Now we have the Nexus 4 with issues like screen sensitivity and so on.

As for updates, other brands are quite bad too, especially in north America, but they don't make promises then go cold for months. They deliver on time, or make an honest announcement about cancellation. Or they just don't promise anything which is fine by me.

LG Mobile just is difficult to trust now, even if they let Google control SW updates.
[LG Optimus 2x] petr.klos:
Motorola anoyne?:)
[LG Optimus 2x] Sörnäinen:
Motorola is pretty much the same. I came from there - second Android device with hardware issues and lack of support, which gives me the feeling that Google's concept might be flawed altogether.

I try Xiaomi now.
[LG Optimus 2x] petr.klos:
Interesting choice. Was thinking about it, but could not persuade myself to use it as primary. And secondary phone is *fanfare* Motorola Milestone. :) Back then it was lack of flash support, caused by Motorola's inability to make update to FroYo fo a year or so, and dropping support without releasing GB. The funny part was them promising constantly

LG on the other hand is completely silent about their lack or plans, except for speaking about real progress (in corporate term of process managment) being made. I can imagine, then when LG said that P990 ICS will come in future by saying in Q2 that by the end of year that there will be an update, they were probably in a phase of knowing they will certainly be doing it and having sort of a plan, with the sad reality of P990 ICS in queue.

But yeah, it is funny.

I am thinking Asus Padfone 2. The idea to using it as notebook sounds very interesting and I could use my laptop only as portable PC, for my laptot, though powerful, is heavy.

And concept is great. The problem is that CEOs and managers of companies like LG or Motorola did not really cope well with transition form "dumb" phones (with properitary OSes) to smartphones (with opened unified Oses).

LG announces Android ICS for the Optimus series 2011: the update will arrive in December

Andrea Podda29 November 2012LG, Upgrade

Some time ago, virtually all of the columnists of our portal had Optimus Series 2011, for this reason, our first success came thanks to this device, since a lot of posts on Playa Android and many guides are dedicated to these smartphones made by LG . For this we know that we follow many owners Dual and especially now after several back and forth, we finally have the official confirmation that LG will release Android 4 ICS by the end of December 2012.

Finally got this news, even if the delay is remarkable and in many you will now be disposed of these smartphones in hardware are so advanced that are still relevant today. Unfortunately, despite this upgrade, Google has since moved on and you find yourself still back two versions but still better than nothing, still hoping that everything works as it should.

INFO updating

The update should respond to the initial V30A and is at present on the server even if not yet downloaded. At times it seems will be issued for Optimus Dual and Black, with all due respect to those who have spent big money to buy the Optimus 3D, which however still do not know anything. Oh well!

As many already know, move from one version to another as in this case (moving from Gingerbread to ICS) represents a distortion of the system, a Major Update will bring with it important changes in the case of Ice Cream you will find yourself in front of the version that has marked the full maturity of Android, a very stable system and at the same time beautiful and elastic.

If you still do not know the changes introduced with Android ICS, you'll want to take a look at this LINK.

LG should also include proprietary applications that will further improve the user experience. If this update is noted in the Dual to life we ​​can not know, but given that there are still people among us who owns the Dual (for now equipped with ROM, as a good geek LINK), as soon as the upgrade will be installed there give you more information, as well as notify you of any roll-out.

Those of you who held an Optimus 2011 and who has now launched the window?
[LG Optimus 2x] machoman1337:
Old news, and given LG's record it's not entirely believable either. Will we get the ICS? Quite likely. Will we get it by December? I bet BB10 will come out first...
[LG Optimus 2x] TheBo:
these are not my words and since I don't beleieve LG anymore i didn't want to report them here, but the sources below are quite reliable IMHO . They went to the LG italian headquarter to give back some LG phones and talked and tested the Release Candidate of the P990 ics rom, they were confirmed once again they are going to release it in december as the testing is in the final stages

just use google translate... the blog is probably one , if not the most reliable in italy regarding android phones, it is not used to make proclamations that easily so... i won't take a position considering it's LG we are talking about , It' s up to you guys believe it or not...

I remove the link to avoid more confusion. :o
[LG Optimus 2x] chackodepacko:
Yepp...I guess, very old story. The point is: nowadays Smartphones are getting cheaper and are better equipped. So the longer LG waits until the release of ICS, the shorter we will make use of this upcoming (or not upcoming) ICS. I sureley will still use this P990 for some months, but when there is in 5-6 month a good deal, then I have to replace it, not because I want it urgently to replace, but because the hardware is not up-to-date then.

It's really ****ty-bitty, what Lg does. But I don't care because whether ICS comes or not: this phone will get replaced in some months if there is a good deal.
[LG Optimus 2x] Amivieu:
me too, why ? please can anyone confirm please
[LG Optimus 2x] Custom40:
Good deal or not. The main thing and main reason that has kept me with this phone and the waiting zone for so long is because of PA based on CM10.1. When that Is released, the flashing every week or so will come to an end :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Marsou77:
In France, it's the same. Maybe they finally add our beloved ICS update :p
[LG Optimus 2x] Sörnäinen:
No, they apparently updated GB. Quite a chutzpah they have. Seems they know ICS will take longer or will be canceled altogether.
[LG Optimus 2x] justjackyl:
I'm going to agree with this.

Although I have encountered many of those errors many times, 99% of the time these were related to the code or software communicating with the hardware, and not the hardware

itself.

Lack of updated OS really does suck, but my g2x's (sister phone) hardware runs great now that I have everything setup correctly.

i am on baseband 405, never changed it, should i flash a new one? are there any actual benefits?

i read some guides but changing baseband seemed awfully hard for me, like using adb and stuff, is there an easier way?
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:

So no don't change it unless u don't have service or you're call quality is bad.

I always use 725 although many people are complain about it
[LG Optimus 2x] EmirF121:
Once again, i am a newbie... :D

1. What if i don't make backup and flash a new baseband?

2. When flashing kernel and gapps i do a wipe of cache and dalvik?

3. Only when flashing a new ROM i do data wipe?

I also have bad battery life, so new kernel would help? Also when writting a post on some forum i am having a problem with a pointer, it's so hard to move it and point the right place.

[LG Optimus 2x] r00t4ev3r:
1. You will loose your data

2. I think no , i installed both without a dalvik/Cache wipe

3. Yes

I don't know if the Kernel would help
[LG Optimus 2x] NobleT:
1. By flashing a new baseband your mobile phone goes in the delivery status (factory reset), you lost all apps and data

With a backup you can restore the apps and your scores etc.

2. yes only a cache and dalvik wipe (by flashing a kernel it is recommended, by flashing gapps you can do it but you do not need)

3. No if you wipe the data you lost all apps etc. it is a factory reset, do that only if you come from another rom, for example miui -> cm or lg stock -> cm

Not this time, the kernel is only for oc, maybe in a few weeks you have a better battery life with a custom kernel.

But maybe you have a better Battery life with a new/other baseband.
