wait until end of December

We must wait until end of December... Maybe a miracle!!!!!!!

LG knows that Even if release ICS for p920 lost a lot of customers.Because nobody does a mistake twice.So for LG No matter how much time passes.1 month or 3 month or 1 years No matter for LG they LOST customers already. they exactly know that .So don't rush for it.

they have a nick name LIE'S GOOD.wait until end of December ;)
[LG Optimus 3D] cool_recep:
I asked LG Turkey support today, they replied:

"No certain date or information was given to us"
[LG Optimus 3D] :
that update isn;t coming i think. So i have updated to cm10 and it rocks! :D
[LG Optimus 3D] Farhad4500:
LG responsibility!!!

Thank you for contacting LG Electronics

------Reply to Your Inquiry-------

The ICS update as you know at present is only available for the LG Nitro, the LG Spectrum, and now also the LG Lucid.

That being said, however, when ICS will be available for other LG Android Handsets like your LG 3d p920 we have not been told as of yet by Android or Google who both decide which Handsets will get what OS updates.

Not trying to pass the buck but simply letting you know that LG - like you and so many others - is awaiting the advent of the ICS for a number of its Handsets.

Thank you and be blessed!

i really disappointed with LG Support!!!! when? when you update this phone to ICS?????

what you see in this reply ??? just screw!!!!! :mad:
[LG Optimus 3D] dreccon:
I don't understand! Did they just say they are waiting for Google's approval to delease ICS? This is absurd!

[LG Optimus 3D] xjjohnno:
I think back to a little .pdf that used to reside on the LG website, the one with the upgrade schedule for phones like the p920 which was scheduled for Q3 2012 and find it a bit lacking in credibility when they blame the absence of an upgrade on Google and Android. Eligible phones will have been decided a long time ago so why don't they admit they are hopeless.
[LG Optimus 3D] Shukri211:
What if it was true? I mean it's about time Google took a stand and gave LG a warning, but to think that they're behind this lag and that they support some manufacturers more than others? Samsung isn't all that good after all? B.S
[LG Optimus 3D] cool_recep:
It is going 250 pages and we don't even know when the hell this software is coming!

3 days later the world will come to an end and we don't even have an ICS yet! F**k!
[LG Optimus 3D] Farhad4500:
Unfortunately LG do anything Except updates to the ICS
[LG Optimus 3D] joaohbs:
Excuse me for asking, but where is the default note app? Yes, because I use GoogleNow to record notes (Ex. I say "Note remember buying this tomorrow" and GoogleNow creates the note "Remember buying this tomorrow"). But I can not find where it saves the note.

LG is a ****.
[LG Optimus 3D] gummie:
LG Nexus 4 is quite a great deal, future proof and stylish and IT IS LG. Got mine yesterday so I got nothing to blame LG for. My Wife's LG Optimus 3D SU760 has ICS w/c she liked so much and I currently have Samsung Galaxy Nexus and LG Nexus 4 btw. If you want up to date from Google, you should've bought Nexus Series instead of blaming. There is no Marketing strategy going on every updates they are free and Google are the one's distributing it not the Handset Manufacturer.
[LG Optimus 3D] xbsall:
Sorry but this is BS!

Google doesn't decide which devices will get updates and "obviously" you all know that O3D of Korea (SU760) has ICS (and like it or not its the same phone it just has more InternalSD space, that's why we have the port).

The only thing that LG had to do if they wanted to release ICS was to turn the camera orientation upside down in their source code, fix the 4 buttons in the kernel (we have already fixed that using their source code), use the official android 4 sms/mms application and

give the necessary basebands for each country

(which makes me think that they probably don't want to risk another ghost call issue situation like with Gingerbread that took them 6 months to fix and that's why they don't release it)
[LG Optimus 3D] Shukri211:
This is pathetic, blaming people for buying from LG yet still want them to buy LG? Every other manufacterer cares about updating their products, or at least like Motorola did to its "really old" phones, apologies. What did LG do? Lie. If that's a good marketing strategy, or even if you think it doesn't matter to lie to customers, then ... I really don't wanna troll on these forums, just gtfo kid.
[LG Optimus 3D] gummie:
The only thing that made me buy that new LG is it was Nexus Series. It just happen that LG got the next Nexus. Updates are not affected by the Handset Manufacturer as I said because the Google has to release the source ofc, in the case of O3D P920 and SU760 both has same codename but actually has different hardware. Sure people might find work around but its still not enough even if you hard code this fixes from source as it still wasn't meant for that specific device. It was not right to blame it all LG, they release update once Google gave their share.
[LG Optimus 3D] Shukri211:
This is no place for marketing, don't tell us to buy it. Do I have to buy every nexus phone that comes out? No, I'll buy a note or HTC DNA which outclasses Optimus G in every review, and gets updates. Besides you're not making any sense, it's just like saying "do you want an update? buy nexus4!" No I want it on my O3D or you'll never see my face again LG.

What makes one angry is that LG could have given us the update any time, they had the codes and devs. But maybe we don't matter much because they're not even working on an apology to us.
[LG Optimus 3D] gummie:
For concerns such as this, it might be good to address a ticket on International site of LG and also to Google, this may raise alarm on their side. The one who posted the conversation was talking to a rep from a specific country. 70% he also or might really not have Idea on that field so he replied it like that.

I understand what your going thru but for me the best way that worked when I didn't get ICS from my Old device was to sell it and look for a device that would give me that update and lots of development, just saying. Sorry if it may sound offensive but that's how it is , LG is also waiting updates from the source. They were not the only ones to blame to blame.
[LG Optimus 3D] Shukri211:
@Underlined part: That's the problem, LG doesn't believe in giving away updates because they wanna sell more phones, while in fact if my experience with a phone was as horrific as this one, I'll never come back again. LG can't "force" us to buy new phones by abandoning us every time a new phone comes out. That's cheap.

I'm human, I get angry, and when I do I leave to another manufacturer where I know my satisfaction matters. There will always be nexus phones, so I'm gonna have to skip this one, and wherever else I go there will be good treatment development and updates anyway, but I get a sick feeling every time I remember my experience with LG, that's a fact.
[LG Optimus 3D] ecb41tza:
+1
[LG Optimus 3D] Rho'd Berth:
It's all silly speculation.

The truth is most probably that LG just lacks the money to support their phones. It's not one of the largest phone manufacturers and supporting all those old phones most probably cost them more money then it delivers to them. Or they just don't have the staff to support it.

For apple it's very easy to support their phones. They have few models with all about the same specs.

Samsung is huge, they can easily afford to support their phones b/c they have sold tens of millions.

Of course LG should just decide, go for it, invest in support, and grow large. Or not invest.

I think they're making the wrong decisions, guided too much by short time financial goals.

But all that crap talk about lies good etc. just shows that you guys have no idea about corporations. As if they want to lie and get rid of their customer base. They don't. It's an undesired result of wrong decisions.
[LG Optimus 3D] Kodaro:
The last part is absurd, if the manager can show his face to explain how ****ing great the Optimus g is he could tell in the next sentence that he is sorry for not being able to provide us with the update the next months. That wouldn't cost 1 dollar!

We are not calling them liars cause they are incompetent (but yes they are) but cause they do exactly that: they lie!

[LG Optimus 3D] Shukri211:
It didn't take xbsall any money to port SU760 ics to our phones.

xbsall isn't a paid dev at LG nor has their source code

after ics has been made for one LG phone, what's left is to port, but LG doesn't do that because they don't want to.

LG is one of the largest brands in the world but in comparison to all the small companies that updated their phones (like Moto) LG did a horrible job, and its absurd to even ask us old users to be happy with this experience.

When Moto couldn't update the really old phones, they apologized because like their manager said, they care about transperancy. i.e no update nor apology = lying. (is a fact)

LG support has answered many customers totally different answeres

LG shouldn't let us leave with a horrible impression but they did, because anything matters more than our satisfaction.
[LG Optimus 3D] axlina:
You're still upseting over official updates???

Official updates are often laggy so get over them...

Thanks to awesome guys like Xsball and Ricardo we have ICS and even Jellybean.

The only good thing is that we've all learned not to buy LG phones, ever again ... we've learned that the hard way. Next time we'll be smarter.

As far as I'm concerned, they don't have to update.
[LG Optimus 3D] dreccon:
I totally agree with you apart from the fact they haven't released their 3D source. When they do, or when some crafty developer manages to crack it, we won't need them anymore!

[LG Optimus 3D] xbsall:
We are talking about software here.

They are not gonna replace hardware.

Software that should have been updated many months ago.

Their software update policy is pathetic and has nothing to do with the fact that its a small or big corp and even newer devices like P720/P725 still ain't got ICS but once again the Korean model is using ICS just fine.

I really can't believe people who are backing LG. The situation is obvious! How the hell can you do that? 2013 is coming and there is still no update and not even a word on ICS...
[LG Optimus 3D] defcomg:
Agreed LG Must stop this bootloader locking **** I would like to go for the optimus 3g but because lg = locked boot loader + lack of update I would not touch it with a ten foot pole the other thing is lg UK ffs they should leave it aosp like huawei they like new at making phones but do a better job than lg last but not least what u mentioned you can not just update your home market and leave the rest of the world with without updates that's just stupid. With all this ranting and raving about lg being a bad choice they will be people who read this and still go buy from lg then complain later smh @ some people:what:
[LG Optimus 3D] Farhad4500:
Strongly agree . LG NEVERMORE :mad:
[LG Optimus 3D] xbsall:
Unfortunately they won't release the 3D code.

And if I m not wrong it is copyrighted.

The only thing that I'd like to add is that these great devices should not be supported only by free developers like the Cyanogen Team, me or the rest guys here in XDA and other forums, it's not our job to do that.

It's sad to have awesome phones like P920 or P720/P725 officially forgotten in Gingerbread.

[LG Optimus 3D] alcidescfjr:
Hi, i install First ICS 4.0.4 Full 3D ROM Ported From SU760 , rooted the phone and instal TWRP recovery, then i flash the Darkroom International, but i am having problems, with reboots, with the wi-fi, the fone always close... Now i am trying to downgrade to GB, but i can't enter the DOWNLOAD MODE for flash de GB rom in LG FlashTool, i only can enter into TWRP Recovery.

Anyone knows how can i get into download mode?

I tried this thread

but, as i said, i can't get into download mode, just the Fastboot screen or TWRP recovery.
[LG Optimus 3D] dreccon:
That's exactly why it needs to be cracked.

One more thing. Using the latest HDR Camera from PlayStore, I can cycle through 3 cameras: Back (2D) - Front - Back (3D). This will probably work under CM10 but you can't view the photos on the phone (for now).

[LG Optimus 3D] xbsall:
Cracked (if i am not wrong and it really is Copyrighted) = Lawsuit

But if its not copyrighted and they manage to do it that would really be a great step for CM based ROM's. :highfive:
[LG Optimus 3D] LeighR:
Lawsuit on who? Some guy on a forum called JohnSmith69 who just used it to make their phone more popular?

The copyright will stop other phone companies using the 3d code for their phones and cracking it won't change that
[LG Optimus 3D] dreccon:
LeighR has a point. We are not manufacturers here! Anyway, how can we find out if this stuff is copyrighted or not?

Sent from my LG-P920, the first phone I regret buying!
[LG Optimus 3D] pandaball:
The Real3D framework is proprietary, meaning it is closed source and much more difficult to implement in non-LG roms. The legality of 'cracking' it is however questionable since it is their own in-house work as compared to android, which is open source and free to copy. It can very well mean a lawsuit or a DMCA takedown request if it is implemented in non-LG roms.
[LG Optimus 3D] kekio84:
There is another option. If someone could crack the 3d framework then make it a flashable zip,which could be installed optionaly. That way cyanogenmod(or any other team) wouldn't be sued. And tracking one person down who didn't implement it in any rom woul'd be useless. :) I hope you understand what i mean.
[LG Optimus 3D] xbsall:
We were talking about Cyanogen Mod ROMS and Cyanogen Team makes them not JohnSmith69...

Anyway, time will show if Real3D will be available or not in CM based Roms.

Maybe someone could make an add on for cm10. This could be done by JohnSmith69. I really doubt that LG will release the sources...

Good luck finding a developer who will do such a thing and spend A LOT of his time to do it but after he publish it he will not be able to say he did it because its considered Illegal.

Sent from my NXE4+ P920.
[LG Optimus 3D] zogu:
In the term of law I think it is much bigger problem unlocking phones and unlocking and hacking loader then porting 3d library. No one can suit developer because of porting 3d library and if someone port it, it will be with different source. Original source is unavailable and disassembling is impossible. Problem with CM is only because they are under free license and there is only few 3D devices and they don't want to bother with them.

I never tried 3D library and 3D gallery with CM9 (probably most similar to stock ics because it use stock kernel), but if someone is capable to make binary port it will be fully legal for using and publishing, LG sources + LG closed firmware + CM sources = perfect rom (with something upside down :) :) )
[LG Optimus 3D] LeighR:
If JohnSmith69 is a student or some regular guy and his zip improves LG phones, LG are unlikely to do anything.

1) financially, the cost of finding JohnSmith69 and taking him to court in a foreign country would be astronomical. He'd pay them back at £10 per week from his student loan.

2) it would be horrific for their PR, rather than act as a deterrent..

Can i simply install the jellybam rom when i'm actually running GB v21e?

It maybe releases for p920 too
[LG Optimus 3D] Shukri211:
At least its official that LG lied, on their facebook account included, for whatever reasons.

Question: if there's a software that can trick antutu and such "apps" how am I going to believe their phone spefications? Especially parts that lg make like the optimus G camera? Say I think its a 6 megapixel, Is such possible?
[LG Optimus 3D] The_Guest_Who:
Not to sound pedantic on my first post, but is there a website or link that officially shows LG cancelling ICS for the P920? If so, some of us who bought the phone with the intent to update it may be able to pursue legal action against LG for false advertisement and/or fraud. Some jurisdictions will allow for a small-claims action based on the misleading info.
[LG Optimus 3D] Farhad4500:
Well, finally ! they don't update p920 to 4.0.4 . now we pretty sure!!!! if they want update they did it earlier... we need a Custom rom'

a Custom rom with fully working 3d without bloatware and normal cwm install method. I want to know and ask dear xbsall You're better than all of us . we have source code for SU760 and you port it for p920 (thank you) but Where is the problem ? why you can't make it for normal cwm install method (Without turning to SU760)???
[LG Optimus 3D] Shukri211:
Someone already asked LG, and LG officially replied, they didn't announce the delay to expect they will announce cancelling.

Even without legal action, I'm almost certain LG can't make more phones without updating the old ones. It'll be "the phone with no update" on reviews, or "it says there'll be an update, but we can't be sure. It says true hd display, but we can't be sure, it says its a cool phone on the box, but its LG, no credibility" awesome, can't wait when that happens. With today's lie confirmed it seems soon enough

Just thank you devs on this forum, I didn't know lg is that crappy but at least somehow you saved the day
[LG Optimus 3D] xbsall:
Why whats the problem with bin method? :confused:

9500 have downloaded it and a lot of them are using it as is..

If you want it to work with normal CWM method yes now we can make it work like that but its pointless and a waste of time.

So far we have great kernels for ICS, we have fixed the 4 buttons, we have partially fixed the camera and only the MMS dont work (sms work fine) and of course the FM Radio ..

I don't see a reason for this to change.
[LG Optimus 3D] Farhad4500:
This is just a suggestion. normal cwm install method Is much easier from bin method for novice Users like me and many like me :eek: Many people are afraid to brick their phones in bin method! i Thought if you make this rom with normal CWM method it's very better for novice Users

this work surely isn't ""pointless and a waste of time"". This is a favor You do that for them.

Novice users can read a few things and they won't be novice anymore.. :)

[LG Optimus 3D] dreccon:
It's not pointless. We now have a couple of other alternatives such as CM10 or JellyBam. It is very time consuming for someone running the SU760 port to have to downgrade to GB in order to test the new nightly for a day and then go back to SU760. Running a port of ICS on our normal parition table would make the whole process a lot faster even for experienced users.
[LG Optimus 3D] xbsall:
I am sure those are great ROMS but personally I m using ICS so i m not going to "consume my time" to make it work on normal partition table so it won't be "time consuming " for the other users who want to try nightly build's .. :D:D

If somebody wants to consume his time to make it work on normal partition table he's free to do it, v30b ICS is not copyrighted to me, I only proved it works on P920 and posted it. :cool:
