This post was written on February 14, 2012. I'm sure that if there was a way to get hardware acceleration for the O2x, Ricardo would have already released a version of CM9.
[LG Optimus 2x] oleg1981:
maybe he dose not want to say.
[LG Optimus 2x] victoram:
well if atrix that shares the SAME CPU/GPU architeture get HW acc 4 months ago, and they are enjoying it, why optimus don't? thats why i am confused lol.

:confused::confused:
[LG Optimus 2x] jordantr:
We have different rev. I think, otherwise it would be ported from atrix long time ago.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rick Roll:
Atrix 4G doesn't have HW acceleration either.
[LG Optimus 2x] oleg1981:
if you will read the original post the atrix got the port from Ricardo work on 2X!
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
I could have sworn that the reason RC released a few ICS builds for the 2X was because he managed to get HWA working to some extent (think it was the UI only)?

That's probably what the article references.
[LG Optimus 2x] Gabb1995:
when are they gonna fix video decoding and encoding?
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
We just needed the proper connection device name. That allowed us to enable it
[LG Optimus 2x] FrankvanderZalm:
Will there be an Alpha/Beta available on the forum soon?
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
Maybe. We'll

atleast

have to fix audio first. And we'll make a separate thread for that release. THis is after all a general ICS discussion and not the discussion of the ROM me and Benee makes.
[LG Optimus 2x] tonywaouw:
Looking forward to this new thread :D
[LG Optimus 2x] steindani:
Uh, oh! Benees hand (cursor) is on the audio cell in the spreadsheet, let's hope the best.

Btw. thanks for this spreadsheet, I've felt left alone the days before, now at least I know, there is hard work in the background. Keep up the good work!
[LG Optimus 2x] Striatum_bdr:
Let's see... You can phone but can't download?...
[LG Optimus 2x] DentTette:
You can make another cellphone ring, but you can't actually call since there is no sound and mic. This means that i haven't been able to test if the call is properly handled.

I'm this close to fixing data over 2G/3G. The connection is set up (2G/HSDPA, belgium Base network) but some events make the phone application crash.

SMS however is fully working, mms not tested.

Video playback is "quote" working "quote"; There is no sound and all the software errors makes it choppy. Thus it is not really working.
[LG Optimus 2x] p.valenta:
Part of CM9 work?

Hi guys,

It's really amazing what all you made already running.

I only wonder if your work will be part of CM9? Or it is independent project?

It will be released like kernel for CM9? Or like own AOSP ICS ROM?

Thanks for your hard work!!!
[LG Optimus 2x] Imperticus:
@kiljacken Are you guys working/building with CM9 as base, or build direct from AOSP?
[LG Optimus 2x] kiljacken:
It's mainly AOSP with some code borrowed from CM (Some RIL and legacy stuff).
[LG Optimus 2x] Piter1225:
That's a good question.

Or maybe you are just patching the G2X port?

How about overall UI smoothness? Is it better from what we've seen with first O2X alpha?

Thanks for your work guys and keep it up.

P.S.

Short video overview would be wery welcomed ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] DentTette:
The build is made from source, AOSP infused with legacy CM patches and RIL fixes.

Perhaps i'll make a small video this evening (PS what would you like to see ?)
[LG Optimus 2x] DentTette:
Youtube

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLFpiEXaRiU

This is a small overview of the UI smoothness. This an install from my testbuilds in which i have not merged the WI-FI fixes. So no internet browsing.

The cam is blurry and the audio crap. But it was the best i have in the surroundings :)
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
Wow looks very good!!!!! Pun the pond
[LG Optimus 2x] vitaminxero:
Looking good, thanks for the update, broseph. Can't wait to get my flasholism on when it's ready for playtime.
[LG Optimus 2x] PykaTux:
What kernel are you using?
[LG Optimus 2x] rosgr100:
i think that motorola will release soon ics for XOOM...so is it usefull for us O2X owners...i am speaking about tegra 2 drivers, can we use them or to take some part of them?
[LG Optimus 2x] shpapy:
Xoom got official ics ota yesterday I wonder how much time till the src is out
[LG Optimus 2x] voon:
Fascinating. I hope the missing bits are just not done, yet, and no showstoppers.... soon, there's also kernels 3.2+ I think .... asfaik, Linus & Co are bringing the android drivers into 3.3. Then again, that's not really ICS related :)
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
No it didn't.

Select people got it for testing yesterday.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
When LG do.
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
No, they they just added some hacks to get the ui working without lagging and called it hwa, but it isnt.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Nope, it's working: https://plus.google.com/u/0/115049428938715274412/posts/DB5MCYqKfht
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
No it isnt, its just a bunch of hacks.... Its impossible without an lg release or the nvidia hal drivers.
[LG Optimus 2x] Supupa:
Everything is software rendered. There's multiple devices, who have used the software patch. Such as the xpheria s. (I think.... Well one of the xpheia phones, due to its drives being crap) (:
[LG Optimus 2x] -sandro-:
Anybody realized yet that Nvidia didn't release s**t in the end ? :)
[LG Optimus 2x] FoliathR:
I'd rather they release drivers actually. :D
[LG Optimus 2x] jordantr:
The hope dies last :)
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
Really? i don't think anyone here realized that thanks.
[LG Optimus 2x] -sandro-:
I'm glad I could help :-)
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
Its nvidias fault not lgs, nvidia won't release any harmony drivers source code or anything related, lg most likely have it but its under licence from nvidia so cannot release the src.

Blame nvidia here as far as they are concerned they have no obligation to release it and see no reason ....so much for their legendary support.... littles **** ****s.

My next device is likely to be a huawei they have their own chipsets. Or qualcom.
[LG Optimus 2x] jordantr:
Yea. Im thinking about huawei ascend d quad too. It has 4.5" screen which is better for me comparing to others 4.7" (its simply too big).
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
Yep that's the one im watching but a review said they were concerned about its battery life, the rumor is that it comes with a huge battery because it consumes alot of power.

The tegra 3 comes with a 4 core plus 1 to use when it doesn't need all 4 cores which will drain battery i dont think the huawei cpu has this, but either way i think this will be my next device.
[LG Optimus 2x] Kinimod01:
some ICS Updates are coming. Still no lg 2x update...

thx @Gkul
[LG Optimus 2x] lipisak:
Sometimes I'm sad that i didn't study Korean:-):-)
[LG Optimus 2x] jura55:
And is it problem for LG employees to take O2X nVidia source codes and upload them anonymously on file sharing web page (megaupload etc...)? LG can only profit from this...and sorry nVidia, leaks sometimes happens...
[LG Optimus 2x] lipisak:
Guess it's not only nVidia drivers since o2x doesn't use reference tegra2. There will be another parts, and the nvidias drivers won't br enough.

Just my opinion...
[LG Optimus 2x] jura55:
But if LG has all necessary source codes, where is the problem to put them somewhere on the internet ? Every LG customer will profit from it and it's zero cost for LG...
[LG Optimus 2x] Kinimod01:
Probably LG believes, that the customers think:

"why should I buy a new phone if my old phone is up to date?!"

LG wants to sell new phones;)

...but that is just guessing and would certainly count for every manufacturer.
[LG Optimus 2x] lipisak:
Yes we can discuss what is the problem with LG, but I Will stay with my p990 until IT goes to sillicon heaven as I did IT with all my smartphones. iCS is working almost perfectly on IT, so official upgrade And drivers Will be Just added value:-) but when p990's time comes, i am sure i won't buy lg anymore. This is what makes Apple different...OK it's expensive device, but it's supported at least for 2 years, because Apple cares... sorry for my opinion here on android topic but who can say i am wrong?:-)
[LG Optimus 2x] grognaz:
to bad those customers wont buy their products anymore:thumbup:
[LG Optimus 2x] silentmelodies:
Gotta agree. As much as I hate Apple for their patent lawsuits and overall bs, I have to admit they make well thought products and actually have a much better update policy than even goggle's nexus line.
[LG Optimus 2x] oOo B0XeR oOo:
BETA TESTERS NEEDED - This is the perfect thread!

We have an EaglesBlood ROM Beta for P-990 that we need Beta Testers for...(edit)

UPDATE: Pilot is closed. Beta release in full effect over in the p990 Dev section!

-b0xer
[LG Optimus 2x] dasklney:
It's great to have another developer for our O2X :D I didn't find any changelog on your website, so it's still having same HW problem as other ROMs out there? :D
[LG Optimus 2x] oOo B0XeR oOo:
"Negative Ghostrider" ...rock solid up here in the Nest. Changelog is on our individual threads (had a little issue with our previous text webhost so in-between vendors at this time) changelog will be back on site soon. I just had a few of you confirm this boots well, everything works and from your replies it already seems like its working just as we promise... FAST. STABLE. CLEAN.

This isn't just another CM-kang, this is a proprietary Team EB™ build, crafted from the ground up from AOSP Maguro source code. Our famous EGB Kernel will also be tuned up soon be included in v1.0 ...we're still calling this first release a Beta.

Give it a spin over in the Dev section. Feedback of course is more than welcomed. Thanks folks.
[LG Optimus 2x] xilw3r:
yay more devs :) cant have enough hehe.

btw guys, you were all talking "why doesnt some one leak sth etc etc" well, as far as i know, its not that simple with these drivers, since they are bound by bureaucratist boundaries. in short, there are legal issues with that (from nvidias end if im correct, which does not allow lg release their drivers or sth like that)
[LG Optimus 2x] oleg1981:
Today gingerbread got out in Italy.wat that means for us? LG did not even started to work on ICS.
[LG Optimus 2x] grognaz:
maybe they did start, however its a complete waste yhat they have anyone still working on gb
[LG Optimus 2x] msedek:
Agreed

Nexus Cm9 + Franco
[LG Optimus 2x] elganso:
Or maybe they're upgrading to Gingerbread in all countries, in order to be ready to launch ICS next week.

...dreaming is free! :p
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
Maybe we should spam nvidia to released the compiled drivers rather than the source code, they seem to have a stick up their ass about releasing the source for the hal drivers but maybe we can convince them to released the drivers we need but compiled and ready to use.
[LG Optimus 2x] lopiop:
when the update arrives it will arrive no point speculating or harassing them, well its good to email lg, but judging by the response received, the helpdesk no nothing of the progress of the update
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
Yes there is a point in harassing them and i said nvidia not lg, lg cannot release the drivers there are legality issues so asking them is pointless anyway, read posts or stfu.
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
dude, nividia is the one company that cant give us any drivers because of the contracts with lg, lg is the only company holding all we need because nvidia already gave them the drivers, dont be agreassive to people when you know not what you are saying to start with...

what is the point in harassing nvidia dude? they only sold that type of processor to lg, maning they wont ever give the drivers to any1 else no matter how hard you beg
[LG Optimus 2x] dasklney:
There was a thread about it, someone asked LG to release the drivers but they couldn't because it's Nvidia property and it's not GPL :D
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
that sounds like bs to me... if lg couldnt release the drivers they wouldnt even be able to release ics in the first place...

if u ask me, id say that is only a way lg found to try to not seem guilty to our eyes...
[LG Optimus 2x] msedek:
You all should try eagles blood AOSP ics rom.. It's awesome.. As a gnex owner I can't find a single thing not working properly or flawlessly.. Feels just like my GNex Give it a try..

Nexus Cm9 + Franco
[LG Optimus 2x] pl3nty:
What would be nice is if LG would do a quick and nasty ICS build for the O2x - not release it as a ROM, but release the GPL sources and pre-built binaries for the phone so the rom cooks could get started...

I guess there are probably many reasons why this will never happen though :p
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
i didnt mean nvidia, its lg who we gotta put the pressure on...
[LG Optimus 2x] silentmelodies:
Who do we put pressure on? The pr staffs? I don't agree the idea that's gonna change anything.
[LG Optimus 2x] G1ForFun:
Thread Cleaned

Cleaned up some posts from the last few pages. Keep it respectful and clean folks. That is all. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
It ha nothing to do with lg, the same chipset is in other branded phones as well like the atrix and the samsung something, this is an nvidia issue.
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
the ideal would be on the dev or maybe some top dogs at lg, but since we cant theres no point...

---------- Post added at 05:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:13 PM ----------

i just dont understand why is it an nvidia issue if nvidia already supplied the drivers to lg...
[LG Optimus 2x] nuvo84:
I think it has to do with nvidia. None of the phones with tegra 2 chipsets ever got an update to ICS. Not even Samsung's Galaxy R (device equilavent to Galaxy s2) with tegra 2. And they did already officially updated most of their top notch devices.

Just a thought. :)
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
They obviously did not completely sell them which means lg only part owns them the same as samsung and Motorola and nvidia also.

Its really not a difficult concept the grasp lg can only release a rom they cannot release any source code. That is up to nvidia.
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
yeah but when nvidia is asked any question bout this, they simply say they already suplied the developers with the drivers, so lg says its nvidias fault, nvidia says its lgs fault... but with that line of thought i think u might be right...
[LG Optimus 2x] missaellpzchvz:
"Tegra 2 Dual Core and Tegra 3 Quad Core reference devices package will be made available early next year. This release package will comprise of binary code, drivers developed on our reference platforms and any patches necessary to ensure stability & performance with ICS."

-NVIDIA last year in November.

The Tegra 2 AP20H SOC platform aka "Harmony" (aka the platform used on the P99x series; Optimus 2x & G2x) was depreciated since the Froyo release of Android, by NVIDIA, and since then, the same binary drivers were used by LG (and developers of course) for Gingerbread and all other deviations of android. Since LG and Developers have to use the same drivers, the full use of ICS hardware acceleration is difficult to achieve and I believe that is the reason for LG's push back of releasing an update for the O2x and also the reason why the G2x will no longer be updated. So I assume that LG is experiencing the same problems that Ricardo and any other developer working on ICS is having. With the lack of NVIDIA's support on their own processor and them neglecting access to any hardware specification, it's almost impossible to write our own drivers. Therefore I predict that if we ever get an update to 4.0, either by LG or a Developer, it will be a crippled derivative of android using the same old drivers and hacked functionality close to what we have now. Hopefully this can help explain the big picture of what is going on and what to expect from our phones in the future.
[LG Optimus 2x] missaellpzchvz:
Also and update:
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
Hopefully samsung or motorola with update the samsung galaxy r or the atrix soon and the devs can rip the drivers we need from them as they have the exact same chipset, hopefully before september which is when lg will delay their ics rom.
[LG Optimus 2x] silentmelodies:
I don't get why in the electronic industry the "quarter" term is used so much. It's not like they don't have a clear schedule, they can just say an approximate date or month. Like saying Q3 when they know it's gonna be in September is too much of a vague statement.
[LG Optimus 2x] silentmelodies:
Are you suggesting that nvidia stopped giving support for harmony devices since the release of Froyo? How can that be? The o2x was first released when GB was already out, but instead LG released the phone with Froyo. Froyo was released long before the Tegra 2 was even out.
[LG Optimus 2x] missaellpzchvz:
I'm not suggesting, I'm stating what NVIDIA said. (sorry I lost the link to the source) NVIDIA build the binary blobs for a Froyo build and gave them to LG to implement them. Once they started working on Gingerbread NVIDIA had already depreciated the hardware and didn't build any new drivers therefore forcing LG to use the same drivers. This again is repeated with ICS. With NVIDIA not updating drivers or releasing HAL components all we have for new implementation on Android OS is the same binary blobs from before. Harmony was like a test platform for Tegra 2 and this is proven by noticing that NVIDIA has updated drivers for the the Tegra 2 "Ventana" platform.
[LG Optimus 2x] Supupa:
Ics renders the UI in a completely different way to what froyo and ginger did. This is why we need the new drivers based on gpu rendering.

[LG Optimus 2x] silentmelodies:
Searched the internet a bit, and it seems you're right to some extent. The thing is though, the term "Harmony" devices is only a code name for the Tegra 250 Development Kit. In short words, there is no production device that is specifically using it. OEMS have custom ones based on it. So yes, support for that specific harmony test devices has stopped, but Nvidia is still giving proper support to the OEMS.

[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Indeed, stopping support for the Harmony dev board has absolute no baring on retail hardware.

Also, stating that the Harmony was an AP20H board and the Ventana was a T20 board is incorrect. They're both T20.
[LG Optimus 2x] msedek:
Well theres still hope i guess
[LG Optimus 2x] xtrustkillx:
Im starting to be tired of this ics update bull**** from lg. Only if they say real date, dont care when it would be. First q2, q3. What will they say in the end of q3? Q4?
[LG Optimus 2x] Zorkman:
Q3 in Canada doesn't necessarily mean that it will be Q3 everywhere. (although I have EXTREME doubts about Q2 anywhere)

I'm guessing there will be carriers where it will be Q4 (or never). Not that that matters, we only need one release somewhere.
[LG Optimus 2x] rottenpenguin:
Well, the GB update was first announced for May 2011, and finally arrived after many delays in November 2011, if I remember correctly.

So I would expect a similar situation this year with ICS. It''ll be Q4 for sure.
[LG Optimus 2x] JanickGers:
I don't understand how there can be different time for the releasing of this ICS update... I mean... for some countries has been deferred, then for some other (like Italy) is still expected for the end of this month.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
It's because in Italy, they're lying.
[LG Optimus 2x] xtrustkillx:
If so why there is no leaked rom yet? Are they scared of nvidia or theyre simply lying?
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Leaks aren't supposed to happen, that's why they're leaks and not releases.

They're not a right, if one happens, you're lucky.
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
He is not right to some extent he is right.
[LG Optimus 2x] silentmelodies:
Sorry, but did you bother reading what I linked?
[LG Optimus 2x] skylinegt77:
i was thinking, this may be a stupid question, but isnt there a way to use ics the way dev have it, and somehow use the gb drivers just for camera and video?
[LG Optimus 2x] puyuman:
No, for ICS must driver for this, don't work like that with GB drivers...

Unfortunately!
[LG Optimus 2x] lopiop:
besides, there are also other driver needed such as sound and others that only lg can provide
[LG Optimus 2x] henkspank:
bytheway, is there any good ics rom for daily use rightnow?
[LG Optimus 2x] msedek:
Yes AOSP eaglesblood its a beast.... Stable as hell and everything works great..... Been using it since release and not a single reboot so far works flawlessly
[LG Optimus 2x] Supupa:
Yessss a very good rommmm !
[LG Optimus 2x] elganso:
Does Chrome for Android work in the latest ICS ROMs?
[LG Optimus 2x] Supupa:
No bud, not yet. We need drivers from nvidia for chrome to work.
[LG Optimus 2x] ktxed:
Tested Chrome with Owain's about a month ago and it worked :o

Crashes frequently, but it is usable if you don't mind the occasional crashes.
[LG Optimus 2x] Supupa:
Haha yes, works to an extent ahah. (:

sent from my wii remote
[LG Optimus 2x] silentmelodies:
Chrome does "work", but the frequent crashes and overall instability makes it not worth using. I prefer using Opera Mini, or even the stock ICS browser :/
[LG Optimus 2x] msedek:
Haha "even stock browser" that's so far the best Android browser, as a Gnex owner I can tell.. Stock natively supports flash and it's fast as hell.. I. Have firefox, opera, dolphin, chrome, but only use stock... That little guy rocks

Apperantly the freshly releasedd ZTE U970 aka Mimosa has the same Tegra 2 chip as our phone inside - and is running ICS.

I am currently downloading a zip of the ROM from some really slow chinese server. Will analyze and re-upload it when it's finished loading.

Haven't found a kernel source yet.

Feel free to contact your chinese speaking friends to help here ;)

Thanks to 271908128 for bringing it up in the Atrix forum.
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
Oh please please please let this be just what we need, however knowing the chinese its probably just hacked to work like the cyanogen release.

Fingers crossed.
[LG Optimus 2x] RohanAJoshi:
so is there any chance for working hw acceleration and other things missing in cm9 ?
[LG Optimus 2x] lopiop:
dunno but its tegra 2 and running ics and is a phone, will have to wait for the devs
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
ZTE suck at releasing source, so it might be a while before anyone knows.
[LG Optimus 2x] eraldo:
If its the right tegra version we won't need the sources the devs could extract the drivers to make the rom for the o2x/atrix ect

http://detail.zol.com.cn/313/312709/article_eva_49_79.shtml

says it uses the ap25 version same as ours, so too does wiki link so its hopeful, the chinese would probably just overclock it so it looks better and matches up to alot of current competition which is around 1.2Ghz.
