Thanks for posting about this! I'd never heard of it but now I'm very excited. I just applied for the beta. I'm wondering if walking down to their office tomorrow and begging in person will get my invite any faster! Should I do it?!
i find a conflict in one of the founders of Microsoft spending $20 million for software for a competing platform.
why not develop Kiha for Microsoft if he believes in the product so much?
i'd be afraid of getting the app and have it dumb down my phone or in some way make it so we want to change over to Microsoft of something....it's a conspiracy i tell you
Koush works for kiha. He was heavily involved in this project.

I would contact their tech support, I'm sure there is a way to report bugs since it is a beta.

So I received there invite to the beta last night and I was very excited about it. Until I started filling out the info etc and started seeing how they collected all my data of all the sites I visit on my PC and phone (um nooo thanks). And something to the effect that them and 3rd parties can look at my emails and passwords, basically stalk me!! And as I kept reading I started getting more freaked out like WTF for real?? And then I decided not to go further or use it! The real kicker was when they told me that after the beta is over that I should change my emails password?!!?!?!?!? HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLZ NO, NOT USING THIS BS!!!
I'm sticking to what I've been using which is Gmail and AOL mail... I've good thus far and I'm sure I'll continue to do so from this point on lol
I really don't advise anyone to use this crap, I mean by all means you can If you don't mind handing over all your info etc- Just read all they ask for and then tell me if you start to feel bothered!!??
so Being an employee of verizon they always let us know when new things are coming out either software or phones. this is straight off their intranet:

Fresh out of the weekend since their support page was updated. A 5-3 release makes sense. Hopefully the radio version is different than the leak, which is reboot happy due to the radio. Software versions match though.
Thanks for the details. I look forward to the official, the leaked was not very stable.

I haven't seen any date associated with the ota update before this, so it was a helpful post for me.

is there another post mentioning the date it will be pushed ota?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
This is the first time I've seen a release date for it posted.
i apologize if this info was already posted. I was just trying to share some info i just noticed. as many people have stated, i have not seen an actual date of release. I also have access to phones a few days before they are released so if there is anything i can do to help the community, please let me know. i have a thunderbolt, and being an employee, i can have my phone replaced whenever needed so i am willing to try pretty much anything (guinea pig anyones software). so if any dev wants me to try something i am more than welcome to.
nice to know

You should put this out there, as I'm sure many devs would love your help.
Also, I'm sure everyone here would like early impressions on new phones.

I'm not quite sure. Maybe just a new thread in TB General? I would ask someone first, if I were you. Maybe a mod.

We all want to help get ics to our g2x asap, but most of us aren't developers.
We can, however, help get our developers what they need.
Right now, nvidia is the bottleneck.
i have to believe that the most effective way of getting the open access we want (ala Texas instruments and omap) is to make them aware of just how much demand there is for it.
In other words, show them just how much easier their life could be if they open sourced the drivers.
Everyone should call nvidia and tell them exactly what we want
If they have to deal with 20 calls a day re this issue, they might take it seriously.
It worked with htc and Sony re locked bootloaders.....
Tweet this (or something like it...but please use the hash tags!)
Help #boycottNvidia for the Lack of support for developers for their @NVIDIATegra devices such as the #g2x. #WENEEDSOURCE #android #ics
Call nvidia at 408 486 2000 and ask for developer relations.
--or email then at http://developer.nvidia.com/contact --
Then just politely make them aware of our desire to have the drivers open sourced. Make them aware of ti's policy, and kindly let them know that how helpful nvidia is with this well help determine of we ever buy or recommend their products again.
TRY TO DO THIS ONCE/DAY!
----Someone more versed with the technical issues -- is there anything else we should be asking for? ----
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
would we get charged calling from canada? xD
I think more ppl would contact them if we had an email to the developer relations dept. Get us that & everyone could send an email for it
Done! and the guy said i wasnt the first and they were looking into it!!!!!
When you call, ask them to do the same for the Gtablet.
I'm a scorned owner of one and fear greatly this will happen again with the G2X.
I'm willing to send a few emails

We tried this with HTC on the cdma hero not too long ago. To no avail mind you. Hopefully nVidia is different but if we're going to reach out to someone we should reach out to LG and tell them this is the last LG product we'll ever buy. Its true for me at least.

Please forgive me ahead of time for I am a developer here.
As far as I know Cyanogen is making a ice cream sandwich build and it is currently in alpha. This is for the g2x. We have other developers working on the optimus 2x and are relatively in the same situation.
No one seems to be able to get sound and camera working. I recently found out that CM now has sound working, but still no camera. Almost everything else is working
. So the ueation arises... Where is it? If your looking for a copy of it, I'm sorry to tell you that it is not available for just anyone.
It is however available for a limited number of people... 20 actually. Everything is working on my build!!!! But it needs some stability so I'm looking for some beta testers who have a g2x and an active carrier.
To apply for beta testing, please email me telling me the following info..
email : [email protected]
Please copy this exactly as is.

The subject of the email must be exactly as shown. Best to just copy and paste it. If its not exactly like this then I won't respond.
There are a number of bugs to be worked out. The reason I have this build is because I have a connection with one of the developers at LG and he sent me the O2X version and some other drivers...
If you have any questions you can follow me on twitter
@chris_j_vautour
Do we need to include our Mobile Number? I'm uncomfortable with sharing that over the internet to a stranger. I really would like to try ICS though :/
Hoping this is legit wish I could test roms out right now

Can't we just use Google Talk? Haha.
You also said something about drivers... Would you mind sharing those in the development section?
I just sent you an email with all the infos, when the the beta testing start???
I'm sure he isn't allowed if he got them from a friend as his friend's job would be in jeopardy if they found out.

I think i will let other people leak it to me rather than give out personals for it lol.

Everybody knows the O2x version will not work on the G2x. Also a leak from LG. Don't think so.

Was wondering if anyone over here at XDA would like to get a live chat going?
I have software on my website already, but i'm wondering if anyone's interested.
It wouldn't be like XDA, because well, every time you log out, the chat history is cleared. But it'd be a great place to ask questions for immediate help.
So far...

This would be a good idea. I will help mush as i can.
