I don't want to argue - but I don't like the way you're talking here about speculations. You're just guessing here, but writing like it's a fact. (see the red highlighted parts above).

Yes I signed an NDA for a big management consulting company as well, but I got information from other companies without a NDA as well.

So please let's stop with these speculations. Go talk with RC and ask him, then come back.

Maybe because LG would feel betrayed and stop supporting him? RC gets almost every major smartphone of LG for free - by LG. And he has some contacts within LG.

If they give him a private leak and he publishes it - it would damage his relationship with them, don't you think?

So they might stop giving him (and CM) the phones - this would help no one.

If you guys haven't already seen, ics for the p990
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:
Ok.... now what .. can anyone shed a light on this? :-s
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mmandros:
Now, we do what we've grown accustomed to doing, wait. That thread is on fire though. Exciting times. If I read it correctly, a leaked debug version
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Darkseider:
I am assuming that the P990 (UK and Europe) and P999 (US) are the identical through and through? If so then this is indeed exciting news!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
They're not identical, they do differ. But it shouldn't be too hard to port a final working P990 ROM to a P999 one.

With the leak unfortunately you won't have luck I think - we need to change some kernel parts and as we got no kernel source for the leak we can't do that.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Nightmare_24_7:
I believe the partitions are different. Does that make much of a difference?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:
Just out of pure curiousity. How about customizing the already available cm9 kernel or AOSP?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
No that doesn't work. a) they differ a lot, b) without the kernel source you don't know what to change.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Core Memory:
I thought that the only real differences between the O2X and G2X is the cell radio, fm radio in the O2X, and the file system layout. If the P990 ICS leak can be reconfigured for the P999 file layout, I would be willing to risk installing it, minus the O2X baseband, in my P999. That would enable determining if there is really something different in the kernel that prevents the P999 from running the ICS leak.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:
I don't know if its related or not. But the person who provided the dual boot for p999 on the o2x forum changed the partition settings in his nvflash dual boot Mod for p999 when it was actually made for p990... so if that thing is possible which is at the lower level than the OS. Why not the rom?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Core Memory:
I've sent a PM to jboxer who knows the answer. He doesn't work on the O2X and G2X anymore but he may reply to my PM with the information we need.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:
Well.... one thing I want to mention here.... no one is defying any Dev here.... u all have done so much good for g2x that its really foolish and impossible to defy or deny any dev's knowledge. But we are so much dwell in this ics **** that even though we know its not gonna work perfectly. I just wish a peak on it on my own device. Cuz seriously the original ics by lg looks so different mainly due to LG GUI. And ofcourse I want to feel happy by using it on my device. So I am making this clear here that I am gonna support each n everyone of the Dev here if its making g2x something better.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Unbelievable. ICS really got released!

Source: http://lgmobile.co.kr/lgmobile/front/download/retrieveDownloadMain.dev

LG usually is pretty fast with the kernel source, the previous source code drops happened after 1-4 business days.

Looks like we don't have to fiddle around with the leaks anymore. Hooray!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:
Yeeeeehawwwwww! First one to thank ya

Here is the link ... i know it is for su660 but i dunno why i just wanna keep this baby in a special place :P and btw thats the bloody hell reason why there wasn't any V30D for a long time :D

http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGSU660/ASKTDW/V30c_00/V30C_00.kdz

MIND YOU ALL NEW PEOPLE.... THIS BUILD IS NOT MADE FOR P999 SO WHATEVER YOU DO JUST DON'T FLASH IT ON P999/G2X
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rosevilletoyota:
YA !!!! So happy now! Will ow be checking XDA every 15 minutes instead of every hour...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PaKii94:
u just made my day :) now to wait till p999 gets it
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:
Hey Tony now that the rom is released I have a question for ya. What did Ricardo said about his cm10 build for p999 I mean he has one ready for p990 and was just waiting for the source to release it that means p990 jb is just around the corner (ooo m so jealous) ... when the source is released how much time do u think will he take to finish the 999 one? One more thing is it possible to get a vanilla ics for p999 when the source is released. Somebody has to do with aosp for that right?

EDIT: to be frank I am more a CM guy after i compared battery performance of v21y with cm7 but looking at the earlier kernel changes built-in to the stock ics ... I always would like to test this beast that took so long to come out.. is it theoretically and practically possible for a vanilla V30C for p999?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
He once said there shouldn't be a problem to port a p990 cm to P999 - which means that you guys should get official cm nightlies, too :)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:
Good. But actually there was another question in my post. I was asking is it possible to get stock V30C for p999? By just changing the kernel of v30c using sources?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] g0rge:
I would imagine given how awesome our developers have been that you will see at least one stock migration of the sources...or something close to approximating it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Aricrj:
The wait is over! I always stayed optimistic.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Ravice:
Can't wait to have a fully functional ICS or JB build, I can't even imagine what it must run like now that the system will actually be able to benefit from real HW, possibly it will actually be able to compete with the Galaxy S2 in terms of performance?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TheCoutures:
Good news, better late then never i always say.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] brentil:
With the Euro P990 already seeing a beta release version it might be very likely we'll see an official P999 release version which may include a new baseband as well. Because so far the only phones that have been denied that there is an upgrade coming has been the Canadian P999 phones which has more to do with the carriers.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Darkseider:
Patience is a virtue and it looks like it has paid off. Our awesome devs have given us life with CM7, ICS and even the Hackfest JB build. Now we have official sources for ICS coming down the pipe shortly and those same awesome devs will breath new life into these phones yet again. Woohoo!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:
Yeah but maybe because Canadian p999 is called Optimus 2x while the American version is called T mobile G2x. So I am not sure if the carriers were the only reason for denying the ICS build. Maybe they just cut off the p999 line cux initial announcement was always for Optimus 2x only so I think only if there is another LG device p999 called Optimus 2x in some other place in the world then only then we have a chance. Also if I remember there was one Guy who asked the LG Rep about the ICS for g2x and the Rep replied that he only have in knowledge that Optimus 2x will get the ICS.

The reason I think why t mobile hasn't announced the deny of ics cuz its not Optimus 2x
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Core Memory:
LG Canada has stated there will never be any updates for the Optimus 2X/G2X/P999 in Canada. Canadians are treated like crap by LG and many other manufacturers and they get away with it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] brentil:
Exactly my point, those carriers stated specifically no update. It had nothing to do with LG.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:
I don't get it. The announcement came from LG Canada. It never came from WIND, Videotron. It was LG that never provided GB to WIND. How can u say LG is not responsible? During the earlier times of ICS announcement from LG. I have seen numerous thread of people asking WIND customer service about the update and they all the time said that WIND will jump from Froyo to ICS when the update is made available. They never denied that. It was only when LG Canada decided they won't be releasing ICS then on exactly the same day WIND removed the p999 from their line up ... so I dun know how can u not blame LG and blame the carriers. Ofcourse carriers are at the mercy of the manufacturers and that is the whole reason why T-Mobile hasn't announced anything about the ICS update because they can't unless LG America make it for them just like how LG Korea did yesterday..... one can easily see they removed the p999 from the ICS lineup and that's the reason why G2X in US and O2X(p999) in Canada not getting the ICS.... on the other hand the Rogers, Telus and Bell. They never had good sales on O2x because it didn't get to GB.... and that's why there were ever so marketing the Samsung line up. Only the little guns like videotron and wind used p999 as a weapon... but later had to drop due to LG's announcement.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] redmonke255:
It doesn't work that way. If the Canadian carriers wanted even gingerbread they would have to pay lg for it, but they didn't because it didn't sell well.

That's also why tmobile didn't buy an upgrade from lg, because it didn't sell well at all. So since none of the NA version (P999) sold well, lg never developed it.

We're just lucky there's international versions of this phone, otherwise we'd be in the same boat as other non supported phones (atrix, photon, etc).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Core Memory:
LG Canada tweeted that they won't provide any updates for the Canadian Optimus 2X as a reply to a tweeted question to LG about when LG would provide an update for the Canadian Optimus 2X (which is identical to the T-Mobile G2X). LG can provide a vanilla update, just like it does for an unbranded phone which isn't tied to a cell phone carrier, which is what will happen when LG markets a Nexus but Google will provide the Android update, not LG.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] south69_dallas:
Will official ics or least the drivers for the p999 give us better battery life as an end result? I get 5-7 hrs currently with wifi on and using it moderately on a ics rom.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ecdy:
In simple terms, why--

"It contains the blobs that will allow Rom developers to make fully functioning roms for our phones, instead of the neutered non-hw accelerated versions we have."

In other words, this release will much reduce the stuttering and jerky video behavior of our G2xs (the most important thing), and will add the nice (?) new features of ICS and maybe JB. Make it about as good as the new Samsung Mini Galaxy SIII, with a better camera.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:
SOURCE........
[T-Mobile LG G2x] quishataylor:
wifi calling

even when the source drops and our devs be able to port official ICS to the G2X, will wifi calling be available. I go to school where i get absolutely no service so this is very important
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:
I doubt that since there is no official support for g2x.... though why can't u guys use talkatone for that?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] redmonke255:
It should be. Wifi calling works on cm7, should be fine to just bring it over.

Sent from my paranoid Nexus 7.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Nightmare_24_7:
I think it might be a little bit more complicated than that. Big difference between gingerbread and ICS.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:
Yup that's what I meant. Cm7 got that from gb which was official. Since T-Mobile not supporting ics officially. There has to be some unofficial method to do so
[T-Mobile LG G2x] brentil:
Well WiFi calling isn't as hardware locked as a kernel is so there might be other ways to port it like using another phone as the basis.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] TheCoutures:
You could try installing the apk file for it and seeing if it works, I wouldn't have any idea but it's worth a shot.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Nightmare_24_7:
I read somewhere that wifi calling is linked to the RIL stack somehow so I don't think you can get it from another phone. What I read may have been BS but just wanted to pass that along.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] brentil:
Ahh yeah true. I had forgotten about the RIL portion of the equation. We will just have to wait and see.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] rosevilletoyota:

Quick question tonyp, are we getting a new baseband ? I'm still on the old baseband so should i upgrade to the march one or should i wait? thanks.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] cricketAC:
We can't. Cuz its not an official upgrade for g2x. Only android version change.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PsyMoses:
Doesn't that make it an upgrade :D, I guess am gonna go ahead and switch to the march baseband, thanks mate
[T-Mobile LG G2x] noahk423:
Yes, but its not an official update, only official updates include basebands. This is only a software update for software, not the radio software. And if you use Bluetooth calling, don't upgrade your baseband.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
The "new baseband" in the topic of this thread is misleading, this is only affecting the P990/SU660.

G2x basebands differ from 2x ones.

And I have no idea if you should update as I have no idea of P999 basebands at all (except that there's an old and a new one).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PsyMoses:
I don't use Bluetooth at all so i should be good to go, Thank you sir.

Gotcha, thanks for replying.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bluenote73:
There is a pretty long standing bug with Bluetooth not working and latest baseband and cm7/etc so to be on the safe side maybe don't upgrade your bb.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PsyMoses:
Yeah after checking the cm forums and since am using wind's version of the g2x it turns out i can't even upgrade my bb, so you are right.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:

It's not that important I think - if it isn't compatible yet I'm sure arcee will make the necessary changes to do so anyways.

He has said before that once the P990 got a working CM10 there shouldn't be a problem to bring it to the P999 as well.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:
Well, the android central post above really does say something like that. I dunno who devs the news there is referring to but they can't just create a news like that out of nothing... so must be something in it

Support for the LGE STAR P999

Don't know if this is very clear but it may help...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
It's probably based on wkpark's post then. I just wanted to say that it has NOT been confirmed by me, as it was stated here ;)

I think you can compile a P999 kernel by "make star_p999_defconfig ARCH=arm".

You might have to edit out the bootloader check (see the recent post by wkpark about it).
[T-Mobile LG G2x] n30wav3:
Also setting the default for MACH_STAR_P999 in Kconfig might help

[T-Mobile LG G2x] Stopfakn:
Never thought I'd see the day we got a stable ics rom. Might even help with jelly bean
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tonyp:
Okay guys, you have to calm down a little. ICS (and JB) is closer than ever, but not here yet.

There is no kernel source code published for the V30A ROM currently - and the kernel from the SU660 doesn't work on our devices.

I did send an inquiry to LG asking about V30 kernel source - but they're not legally required yet to release it as they didn't really publish ICS.

The SU660 is different from the P990/P999 (has hardware buttons for example).

But there are a couple good things we already know :

- version update to 2.6.39.4 (it doesn't matter that it's no 3.0.y kernel)

- no nvrm_daemon anymore - this should mean that LG finally lets the kernel control most sensors. (nvrm_daemon was closed source which was a pita).

- the kernel is apperantly OC-able out of the box, with a new stock frequency of 1200mhz

- it looks like we do have Governor support now(!)

- and of course: a stable ICS (and most likely JB) will be here in the near future

I did contact RC (& Paul) already - but he might wait till we have a P99x ICS drop and/or the kernel source.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] nodyarg:
great news
[T-Mobile LG G2x] breadland:
Wait, the new stock frequency is 1200 mhz?! That means the phone can easily beat the Galaxy Nexus in benchmarking! I'm actually pretty excited about this.

But again, please correct me if I read that wrong.:p

[T-Mobile LG G2x] daxecutioner24:
They would probably be more leaks and build numbers, kinda how Samsung does. Using us as guinea pigs to test. So I don't think that's the su660 "official" ICS release. So it might be a little while before 2x gets theirs
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Laxshanth:

[T-Mobile LG G2x] daxecutioner24:
Of course it's going to boot and everything but might be bugs like horrible battery life..GPS,WiFi signal a bunch of stuff. So don't expect for lg to get it right on their first "leaked". They won't release a half baked product shoot themselves in the foot,they already made us wait long enough.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Laxshanth:
Well that doesnt matter to us, the devs can probably get everything working more stable but its good to know they have something to work with.
