CM not waiting for LGE? Hopeless? - T-Mobile LG G2x

Just saw this tweet from Chris Soyars:
http://twitter.com/#!/ChrisSoyars/status/81836687218573313
I'm not aware of us waiting on anything from a release by LG. Chances are they wont change the battery stuff anyway.

So the CM folks don't even think LGE will have this battery problem fixed? Interesting.

They don't need any LG drivers for CM7 to shine.
It will shine in due time.

Hey. I'll admit, I complained. I mean he'll the Sgs2 just came out and they have 1.5 oc already and a bunch of others, but this makes me a lot less worried cause I choose this over CM or anyone..
I'm stoked I loved TW when I had my vibrant!!! Now hopefully faux will get his g2x bc I also loved his work. Development for this phone is looking up =D

Different phone, different developement. Cant make that comparison. We have 2 OC kernels, CM7 nightlies, and AOSP builds in the works. Strong development doesnt come over night. I dont understand why people expect our dev section to look like the Galaxy i9000 in a matter of weeks

Let's not turn this into a complaining thread. I'm excited to see team whiskey. This ain't anything else other than a heads up. Word
This is kinda freaky, and I'm being completely serious about this. Last night I had a dream that teamwhiskey got a g2x and they were gonna release a new rom soon (Yes, I'm a complete dork who dreams about android development lol)
I dont even know who team whiskey is, I've just seen the name by glancing at the vibrant forums when I had my epic.
Don't worry I haven't had any dreams about 2012 yet so we are good for now

[Q/DEV] Motoblur/Optimus 2x

I'm thinking about starting developing ROMs for our beloved G2x.. Actually, porting, since I can already manipulate a Stock G2x ROM and what not.
But in my case, I'm going to focus on porting over ROMs from mainly the Optimus 2x and the Atrix 4G (Motoblur).
Optimus 2x
It shouldn't be too hard to port over a Optimus 2x ROM simply because the two phones are almost exactly the same. I read a thread that said as long as we don't flash a Optimus baseband, we should be fine. I'm I wrong in that mentality?
Atrix 4G (Motoblur)
I'm thinking about using a Atrix 4G ROM as a base for a Motoblur port (I know it can be done since it's been done on the Nexus One and myTouch 4G). Since both phones have a Tegra 2 processor, it shouldnt be as difficult as porting from OMAP to Snapdragon but it will be very difficult overall.
I'm looking for input and pointers from Devs and stuff before I start officially working on it tomorrow. I will be posting periodical updates depending on my progress and what not.
If I'm not mistaken, this phone should be nearly impossible to brick unless I flash the wrong radio/baseband right? I know my old myTouch 4G had that rule. And I flashed the hell out of it with my test ROMs (even though I never officially released any) and it never bricked. I hope that's the case with the G2x. We shall find out soon enough though!
I will make a new thread on each ROM after I can get it to boot.
Updates
Ahh, finally everything is back in order. I ended up losing my previous progress which wasn't a lot, but was a good start.
It seems like 11.04 doesn't play well with Virtual box additions which are very important to me. Time to try 10.04!
My Ubuntu installation somehow isn't booting. And I'm taking this weekend off starting tomorrow to go camping. I'll try to get it up and running and work a few hours until midnight. Then continue on Monday.
Many thanks in advance, looking forward to the ROMs.
u will find the optimus 2x rom slightly annoying. getting it booting is easy though...more than easy
Why do you say that?

As far as I can remember, the reason it doesn't work isn't just the baseband, but also that it has different partitions. I think that's why there's a thread on how to restore the partitions on a bricked
G2x.

not to be a ninja but I've read other threads were people were asking about porting over sense roms and alot of jags/tough guys were getting mad so same here applies to you if you want a moto blur or atrix rom buy that phone have a nice day
I will buy you a beer if you can get the gingerbread motoblur running on our G2x's...
Would love it actually no matter what anyone here says
Maybe you misread my post.
I'm actually gonna try to port it over. I wasn't asking.
I was actually just asking for any input that could help towards the development.
So please, if your gonna be negative, just keep it to yourself. I don't want this thread to get off topic.

one of the miui roms got 4.0. http://rootzwiki.com/topic/13939-rom-miui-port-miuius-galnet-miuiandroid-updated-01152012/. i have not tried it yet. if you are that desperate..download go launcher.and go locker and get the ICS themes..they are pretty accurate in its look.
I believe LG has ICS releases slated for Q2 of 2012. Not soon, I imagine.
thanks for the feedback everyone. im not super pressed about it but im excited to try it out when it hits our phones!

Yup. It's like putting the ICS transition animations on a gingerbread rom and labeling it ICS.
They probably have a few things from ICS on it, but it really isn't ICS. I think it is just a publicity stunt for them to get people to download their roms.
would appear to have more than just the transitions, but you guys know best surely.
Like I said , I call it what it is called at Galnet. I am not going to call it something else because you don't like how it makes a few people react.

Oh I'm more with you than anything actually. It's more like a hybrid of ICS and gingerbread. Was just using an example.
T-mobile eol'd the phone and they might eol themselves. Lg will still update this phone, I don't know when, what version, when, how, or who will be the first to drop it, but one of the moderators on lg forum kinda hints at it.

If you read the last post from Lg Product Pro, it kinda hints at it.
Motorola atrix 4g has a working cm9.

Why do you think the sgs4g needs to get ics? My phone is fast got extremely great battery life and tons of other things. Do you just want ics so you could have the latest android flavor or do you think or know it will make our phones that much better. I'm not trying to be a smartass just curious why ppl are this rilled up about ics.
I think the only reason is because "others have it".
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Great words blazen you know maybe ics has some quiet interesting features but our developers make than our phone from crappy to gingerbread better than ics that is one the reasons I want to start developing because I feel that I got skills to make some good stuff for the phone ( like themes and guides only things that i have finished) and other reason is because here our developers are way better than samsungs horrible costumer service....anyway every sgs4g user most appreciete the developers work even if the projects are not finished like ics port and aosp port because that makes people more happy and they know that there works are awesome

I believe that most want it because it is the newest OS and most believe it will be an improvement, much like GB compared to Froyo... Which is understandable considering the developers here are going full bore in a attempt to port ICS.
Being one of those that was satisfied with froyo, I have to admit I am even more satisfied with GB... But as for your question, I personally hope that it is released for our phone because if it is, so to would the source be released (just imagine what the developers could accomplish with it).
Just my 2 cents in the well.

You do realize that's a post from someone in the forums right? No word from Samsung USA. You cannot depend on what a customer service rep says, they sit behind the computer all day and still do not know a thing about the products they are supposed to be supporting. They are just trying to shut us up about it already. If the OG galaxy s gets just a value pack, it'd be hard to imagine them bending backwards to give us full ICS

If I am not mistaken the T-Mobile version is the same as the Telus S2 in Canada. If it is I would not be in any hurry to upgrade to ICS. My own experience and experience of others as reported on the Howardforums has not been stellar. Problems with apps freezing and battery life going in the toilet are common. Looks great, just doesn't work very well. I would hold off until these issues are addressed. I usually always wait to do an update until I here some feedback but this time I jumped in and am now regretting it.

The OFFICIAL ics is out for su660. When kernel source cones, p990 can be made stable with the drivers in it. Which will make p999 workable when devs get to it.

Each n every Dev here is skilled. For me there has always been 3 kind of peoples. People who are end users who just buy the phone and fear to fiddle with it cuz it will void the warranty. Others are power users who doesn't care about warranty and do flashing testing and even sometimes tweaking the code (these are the extreme power users). The last are developers some who add their own logic to the code to add new things and fix things the others are extreme developers (who has the android code in their brains like people in LG and Ricardo and last but never the least Google itself)

The Optimus black's source hit in a couple days.
So what about the news that the Atrix has a leaked official build of ICS now? It's the only other Tegra 2 device that is exactly like our phone. If it would have came out months ago it would have been nice but now that it's out so soon to an official release for the p990 it makes me kind of sad.

Been covered before, the Atrix is a bit too different to be of much help. It's a Tegra 2 but there are some differences.
I'm just concerned if the Korean Su660 is similar enough to the P990, and thus the P999, for its source to be of use, or if we still need to wait for p990 source?
My secondary concern is that there will be additional time/issues getting all this to work on Jelly Bean, which is what the "cool devs" are going to work on anyway.

It's the same phone, minus a button + an antenna. Besides, the p990 is pretty much a p999 with a different radio and partition, while the su660 is the same with different kernel level changes (as the p990) (or something along these lines. It will get us cm10 though)

As far as i know, the difference from ICS to JB is MUCH MUCH smaler than GB to ICS. From what ive collected so far, if we got the ics source we will be able to get JB to work almost flawlessly, maybe not perfect, but a normal user like myself wouldnt be able to tell any difference.
To me that is great news

Yes, with source for ICS, JB will run fine.
My Iconia tablet was upgraded to ICS stock, than with the source, the devs pounded out a fully functional JB ROM. I use it as my daily driver.
