[Q] Willing to pay developer for Sense 3.0 lets count - LG Optimus 3D

Who whants to pay for developing sense 3.0 on Optimus 3d
yes i am willing to pay

Have to admit i do like sense myself and wouldnt mind it ported, The problem ive seen with sense 3 though is their are some graphic glitches that can be annoying not that this is a reason not to port.

I do not see many developers joining us unfortunately..perhaps the only reason that I will have to sell my mobile,I know there is no interest and I can not explain....

I am learning to dev when i do learn it i will port it for free so far i understand the basic structure of roms now i'll learn how to port hahaha it will be awhile though....

Reward offered
$150 donation goes to the first person to port Sense 3 without the usual graphics glitches!! Happy porting!!

You do realize that this phone is brand new, it will be released to the US market at Aug 21th and the release in many places has been very low key specially since Samsung has gone all out for the SGS2 release.
Also about devs, CyanogenMod is under development for the O3D and going pretty fast, most things are already working (including 3D, EGL etc) once CM is out giving developers more control of the system etc it will become much more attractive and it will also have a larger user base after the US release.
What kind of development do you really want?
CWM is working on the device, ROOTing is no problem, Custom ROMs will come in droves as CM is available and with CM chances of hacks like overclocking, 1080p 3D recording etc are high ans as for sense it's not unlikely that it will be ported but it will take time.

i could wip a quick dirrty port up for you lot to try, if you really want one that bad. but i will warn you i will not be testing it myself before hand,

Yes I agree with you but in the galaxy s2 forum there is great interest and this is reflected in the many roms that have now come up something which did not think to apply to the LG...perhaps the world do not have much confidence in the brand LG..do not know what else to guess, I'd bought the galaxy s2 despite the many good words that sound the phone was not to my taste and so sold it,And certainly do not regret it at all....sorry for my bad English...

Doesn't Sense 3 need 1Gb of memory to work?

Here is another UI replacement, in 3D, currently with "experimental" stereoscopic support:

You may like Sense more, but it's 2D, that is soooooo 2010...

*The "experimental" stereoscopic support is for use with red/blue glasses, not the O3D style of 3D.
I found that this app is WAY too resource-hungry too... even after installing from stock with no other user apps. Uninstalled

Asked them a while back about supporting the O3D and others and they said that it will become available once the phones are out.
Looks like they started with the red/blue glasses for debugging, adding O3D support should be easy once everything works in red/blue 3D.
Of course it is resource hungry, it runs in 3D, 2D is so old school.

Nobody seems to correct me, so I repeat:
Sense 3 after clean boot uses 700+ mb of ram.
O3D has 512mb of ram.

A(ported) Sense 3.0 custom ROM worked beautifully on my previous handset (HTC Desire), which I am sure does not have 1gb RAM... more like 576mb.
Come on devs... get amongst it! Only 6 more days til release in the US... then we should see some action

Lack of development interest?

I know its new but even phones like the GS2 and Sensation had things going on in the thread before they were out, could this phone be skipped by the devs and ignored which makes it a pointless phone to own what's your views.
Have you tried developing a 3D app etc? It's probably a lot harder for starters... It's not just a case of porting an app over like from the HTC HD to say a mini pro.
Give it a few weeks and I'm sure something will pop up

i don't mean 3D apps I mean roms with owning a Sensation and now a GS2 as well as this phone, the Android Development threads were beaming with things even before the phones had been released but there is little on this so far.

I will give it chance but weeks before the Sensation was released there was loads of interest in the Development section, test roms etc same with the GS2 but this one so far is pretty dead.
AFAIK, LG is not as popular "yet" as the 2 two pioneer brands...but it has great potentials...
I think the reason is the complexity behind the 3D part of this phone. After all, the main reason for getting this phone is for its 3D capability. Also, this is one of the first 3D phone around... so give it some time
Don't forget Samsung also had smae prb back when the "Galaxy" range come up.. the dev rom not really picked up before i9000 arrive.
Sure this phone will pick up once u see more on street, it is very early now ^^
There are also a lot of developers that are interested but can't get the phone yet.
We are getting Verizon LTE here this week, but we don't even have a date for any dual core Cortex-A9 phone yet.
wait till you see CM7 pops out at you.
Am sure almost all the good teams will be with it soon enough. LG could help too by releasing some stuff too.
I dont think this phone will lack interest of developers. Once it has been released in US, many things will change imo. The phone has great potential not only because of its 3D capabilities, but also because of the Tri-Dual tech and Omap4.
I am actually satisfied enough with root and chainfire nvidia drivers for tegra games. Omap4 is quite capable of playing high end games which are specifically designed for ANOTHER gpu. This gives me the thought of its potential that if there will be games specifically designed for omap4, it could be really really rocking.
As stated above wait for the US release, also when it comes to ROMs, this phone is hard, there where a few early leaks but nothing much and the hardware is completely new compared to others and that takes time as well to get to know, on the plus side TI shares code and are often very helpful to homebrew projects etc, on the downside 3D is also completely new to the ROM builders and that will take some time to learn etc.
Many of the phone that get builds before they are even out share most of the same hardware as other phones and so on, the LG Optimus 2X is just getting CM7 but still no stable build, not for lack of interest but for the fact that it's a new chipset and dual-core etc, if you are hoping for a ROM within the next few weeks you are going to be disappointed but if you are willing to give it 3-6 months you'll probably get some really neat stuff to put in your phone.
This phone has great potential. But currently it is still too "costy" for development purpose and too many "first" for the industry. So everything is from scratch. So far the only thing that I am able to stuff in this phone is the HTC IME (chinese) which I still couldn't find anything better.

Its getting busy in here :-)

Wow this area of the forum is getting busy, last week there was just a few of us, now the numbers are increasing fast. I knew this phone was going to be popular, just wait till the USA gets it too
Welcome new O3D owners.
Pete
i was just thinking the same i'm a member since yesterday but i followed this forum a few days before that and it's getting real busy awesome
mmm, when is supposed to be out in USA?
I guess we all just know a good phone when we see it.
Can't believe I was considering a Galaxy S2 or an HTC Sensation over my O3D. What was I thinking?!

Really dude, what were you thinking. Forget about the 3d, Optimus is still better than them. Tri-Dual and the Omap4 is the key
I noticed so excited when I purchased my LG because I'm not so sure whether it is true the right smartphone for me and if it gets the community it deserves. But what amazes me it goes fast because it is not yet available everywhere. I think there are still some great things to come
I'm very close to buying one.
My main concern is that the standard 2D 5MP camera is going to be rubbish up against the Galaxy S II. However, my software support fears have been alleviated by the fact CM7 has been confirmed.
I hear the 3D really is quite excellent.
See this thread if you have a decent pictures to share - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1174827
well i started in this forum with my HTC Elfin, then Xperia X1, then Motorola Milestone, then Galaxy S, then Galaxy S2 (for two weeks) and now my journey ended with this masterpiece of a smartphone!
looking forward to flash and test and flash and so on

its so much more than just themes. there is deffo no malware protection. most manufacturers would probably describe it as malware!
cyanogenmod is a completely from the ground up customised version of android operating system designed for the power user with the intent of maximising the control over and performance of the raw hardware. it allows you to fully manage the settings and behaviours of your device to suit the way YOU like it.
i will honestly never buy another phone that does not have cyanogen available for it, its that good.
Things do seem to be picking up now in these forums which is nice to see.

well it's not that easy...
cyanogenmod is a opensource version of android.
normal customroms are basing on firmwares of the company.
cm7 not. its based on the officual code from google.
on the one side the programmers are able to change the code more easyer and deeper than the firmwares, on the other hand its harder to port cm7 to a new device with all the hardwaresupport.
and yes cm7 is always rooted
pros of cm7:
faster (not from the beginning on)
more funktions
cooler
cons of cm7:
at the beginning there are always bugs (due the different hardware)
some functions never work (for example tv-output of the galaxy s)
at the beginning batterydrain
so at the beginning the cm7-ports to a new device are buggy, slow, batterydraining and don't support the full hardware.
but after a lot of new releases it's really great! blazing fast, cooler, batterysaving and and and
Just got my P920 hope the amount of users will grow everyday

[Q] Sense 3.0 on optimus 3d...possibilities?

There are enough nice themes and apps to make you think you have sense installed..but i want the real thing...
I know i asked before but want to get more on this subject...after all its only a software launcher??
And since it seems the evo3d gets rooted next week or so, i really want to hear possibilities
Thanks!
Omg...
sense is not just a theme or a launcher, its a total change of android.
the evo 3d IS NOT the o3d so the rom from htc is more or less useless!
if you whant sense then sell your o3d and get an evo 3d and stop asking fkr a useless port.
youl'll see if somebody is bored enought to try a port but till then it's useless to open such a thread.

You said it. Sense is nice. So nice that its a selling point for me.
The optimus's cortex 9 and apparantly better 3d view are sexy as well. But the design of the phone sucks imo, doesnt have a notification led and the resolution is fair, but not great, also saw better 2d photos and videos on youtube coming from the evo3d.
So im having a hard time, like i also said in other topics^^
The evo3d gets root as well next week probaly, so you cant convince me with the custom roms, unless it can make the optimus run sense3.0.
Also its stopid that everyone here tries to get me to the optimus side, and at the evo3d forum everybody says their 3vo is better. I knew thiswould happen but it makes making descisions harder. Im glad some people saw both phones and at least now i know the optimus3d does got a better 3d screen.
You will see 2D more than 3D. Sense is a selling point for you so buy the HTC EVO 3D.

if sense is really a must have for you, you should buy the htc because it will take some MONTHS to port it to the o3d and maybe it would be still full of bugs.
you could make it yourself a little bit easyer to decide through a professional way:
first of all make a list of all the attributes of your favorite phone for e.g.
processingpower
ui
style
price
camera
display
storage
connectivity
community
support
battery
and so on
sort them by giving them points.
now choose wich phone gets what attributepoints.
and you'll see what phone has the most points!
if its to hard to decide between two attributes you can compare them to all the other attributes
i hope this will help you

He wants both and doesn't want to choose. Which will end in not buying one of them.
For all the noobs, 3d is just for bragging, don't worry about that, I end up playing the 3d games with low 3d settings... and i have the o3d, that said, i would love a sense ui but i think the developers should do it with the 2.3 !
Both phones are nice and fast, maybe battery is the most decisive aspect.
LG we want 2.3 !!!!
I would like to try Sense on the O3D. For me it isn't a choice between phone, but a choice between Sprint and AT&T. Sprint doesn't have service in my area so... That being said, I am only choosing this phone now instead of waiting for the next Nexus because I don't want to wait anymore, 3D gives bragging rights to non-geeky friends, and there is no guarantee the next Nexus device will come to AT&T. I trust that developers will create oodles of ROM's incuding Ice Cream Sandwich. I hope.

well in fact the o3d is faster than the evo 3d. the processor is a little bit faster and with the dualchannel it's much faster. all the test are showing, that the o3d ist even with 2.2 faster than all the other phones with 2.3

I agree with you. O3D with 2.2 is already faster than other 2.3 phones. Also the UI is very clean and useful. It actually got all the missing features from samsung touchwiz. For myself I am happy with it. I have used htc desire and aria as well, sense is good and useful, but use up too much resource. So unless a launcher is designed as a general launcher like golauncher, I would not have great hope in a ported launcher for specific brand. As there are specific codes within those launchers.

[Q] Any other kernels?

Well, I see ppl from XDA doesn't interesting so much in O3D. There are only two kernels at the moment: stock and Acurateam beta kernel which is pretty sh$$ty. I see noone want to compile the kernels, noone want to see how can we O/C O3D, or maybe someone want, but he doesn't know how? Write here you opinions
I got mine today.
Maybe this is all due to the fact it's a very recent phone and there aren't yet any developers with one of these.
Anyway, anxiously waiting for CM7 and better kernels.
I believe the reason is also because they're waiting for 2.3
I'm one ****ed up user definitely. The O3D doesn't feel like it is optimized with the so call full dual channels chipsets. The old Android 2.2 make it worse. The 3D is awesome, but using the camera in 3d modes and browsing 3d contents is sluggish. It is a huge frustration to turn on the 3d camera and switching between 3d video. When it is finally able to take the moment, it has already history.
If LG doesn't promise with the gingerbread in Oct, I will feel really ****ed up with LG phones. And even if they will, the flaws might not be fixed. I'm only putting high hope with cyanogenmod with everything working. I give it another 3 months, if nothing changed I will chuck this phone. I've experienced with few android phones, I've never feel so frustrated with a "high end' phone. It is not polished in many ways. My old HTC HD2 ported with Android had way better experience with this phone. This is freaking annoying to me now, and I'm feeling stupid of spending such money for a phone. I'm giving this phone 3 months time!
Sent from my LG-P920 using XDA App
from acurateam have worked and are working to bring something better than stock, we are not experts in modification of kernels for android (but we are working hard), we know that this device can take a lot of potential, and try to help with our work, some great developer soon appear, we are studying to improve O3D
With gingerbread longer possible improvements, froyo is simply
The phone itself is great, the biggest problem here is LG and their b*** s***.When I bought the phone I sold my SGS2 and the reason for that was 3D, I didnt expected it would be as fast as SGS2, but it is actually, it is a very nice device.The biggest problem is GB, LG promised it would be out in September, but than they release an update with a 3D converter (what is very nice actually), but doenst fix our performance problem.The problem here is not the device or developers, as I said before the problem here is Froyo and LG.

I hate LG never ever again

Hi every1 first of all i want to say that 2 months ago i sold mine galaxy S I9000 and i had an option: Galaxy S2 or LG P920 unfortunatly i got LG and now everyday i'm *****ing and crying like a little sissy because there's no roms for that bull**** phone.
My girlfriend still has SGS and there is plenty ICS version for my phone nothing not even one.Everyday i'm checking LG P920 section and every morning i got mad because of it. Now i'm stuck with LG because i can't afford to buy SGS 2 .God damn
i don't know what to do with this .I like the size of the phone and omap inside but i have to sell it and go back to SGS.I wrote this thread just to let every1 know how LG f..k me up , i hate LG and this 3D bull**** , so have a good day to every1
lets go spamming lg facebooks and mails
couple week ago I have the same shoes as you, confuse between sgs2 and o3d.
before I choose I try the two of them.
and I know, my heart tell me that I love this 3D bullsh*t thing.
I need something more multimedia ++ haha...
I thing beside the 3D TV, device that suitable for 3D is on smartphone, yes.. just like our O3D...
btw,of course I'm not pleased with LG about the slow update.
but you know in this forum there is a lot of great developer that help me extend to remain patient..
Most of the devs said that when ics comes out they will start deving like mad but as i see it by the time lg release it our phones will become outdated. Then all the work will go into the newer 3d max and etc shame this phone was really good. But just the lack of development from lg killed it..

Yes, you are really crying like a sissy, and I don´t understand why you blame LG for this.
LG has A LOT of problems they can be blamed about, and the delay for ICS is definately a shame for LG, but otherwise, you can´t blame LG for "no ROMs". If you say the phone is ****ty because you can´t find "lots of custom ROMs" for it? Then you should blame XDA developers (or lack of), right?
I already said this in another thread: if your hobby is to flash a new ****ty and half-working ROM every morning, very well, go look for this elsewhere, the O3D is not the phone for you, really. But please remember that while we have just a few ROMs here, most of them are stable and usable, and this IS NOT the case of many other phone models, which have many ROMs available, but most of them experimental and completely broken.
If you guys really want to blame and spam someone, let´s join forces and spam arcee, not LG, because he´s the responsible for LG in CM, and if you check his G+ page, he did a dirty half-done job for the O3D and moved on for other LG phones. It´s clear he´s looking into QUANTITY (many ported phones) and not QUALITY. And the O3D DESERVES the best from arcee, we are talking about the flagship of the manufacturer he´s dedicated to in the CM project.

That is just ridiculous the O3D was the first CM9 rom arcee created on any LG device for reasons only he knows he has chosen not to release.
I suspect this is due to the usual b*ll**** he received on development of CM7. People requesting 3D compatibility which arcee stated from the very outset that this was never likely to work unless LG released their real 3D framework. A problem he does not face with other LG devices.
Can't blame him for releasing CM9 on other LG devices I ask you 1 question could you do what arcee does?
I blame myself for not doing my research on lg's reputation. I have and will hate HTC and Motorola.. never had a Samsung device I didn't like. Should have stuck to my guns but the hardware and dual channel ram tempted me too much.... my bad really...
PS. I flashed 20c kdz and installed thiaz 2.5 stock rom and I love my phone again. Highly recommended!!!
That's all I got to say bout that...
I flashed V20c and all was going well till today when my friends and family rang me all day and my phone did nothing and then when i finally called everyone said i was ignoring them...
I guess i need to buy the samsung galaxy s or the nexsus s out right and then use my sim i can't take this anymore and no i do not want to go to ****ty froyo baseband it sucks...
I'm in the same boat as Trekfan here. Try ThiaiZ's rom, he just released 2.6. use his kernel update as well. I also applied a ICS theme that doesnt' just give me icons, but dialer, texting, and everything on my phone to look like ICS (everything but the real deal). I have also deleted every useless application off my phone, and i now have upwards of 250mb free ram during regular use. phone is much faster, smoother, stable and not missed a call once.
i know there isn't as much development and action as the S2, but then again, the 3d didn't sell over 20 million units... we're not completely left in the dark. thanks ThiaiZ!
here try it out:

I think you're wrong mate. Perhaps there is no such as a ROM for the Galaxy S2, but here each ROM is very stable and reliable .... ALL Optimus 3d developers make excellent and stable ROMs, and excellent kernels, everybody can find what suits him ... ..
I have personally tried all ROMs , and I can say that all great and very very stable
I became a fan of the Thaiz ROMs, Thaiz currently using 2.6 with the ICS theme
I can tell the phone operate and behave perfectly, and that this should be when he left the factory....
Waaah waaah...no roms! Pathetic reason to hate on a manufacturer. LG aren't faultless but they cannot be blamed for the lack of custom roms can they? Maybe you should look a little closer to home - if you wanted a handset you could piss around with all day in that respect you should have tried some old fashioned research before purchasing.
Maybe you should start a "bye bye LG" thread when you exchange back to Samsung just to really let everyone know what you think eh?

With all due respect give me a break please ,check sgs section how many great roms sgs has .All of'em are based on ICS and the phone is much weaker than P920.
I can't figure out why developers don't wanna mess with our phone.We don't even have decent themes ops my bad except one yeah just fu...ing one that's pathetic , i gotta sell that amazing phone and i swear no more LG for me
Everyone can create a theme using UOT, with a couple of clicks.
Then it's just a matter of selecting a theme for your launcher.
It's not LG's fault this phone is expensive and therefore with a much smaller userbase than any other 100€ phone.
Great phone, negligent manufacturer
Before buying it, I already knew that I was going to have loads of problems with updating, LG is not what I call 'reliable'. But I still chose it because its a smartphone with great specs, large screens (IPS, much better than the heated Super AMOLED Plus that did not deliver a great experiences, with yellowish stais and bluish whites, nor Atrix's grayish and dark screen with the pentile martix, my second choice, just staying behind LG's NOVA, which is outstandig), tri -dual technology and 3D, the one that besides HTC's EVO we havent seen before. But the developers surprised me where LG disappointed. Right now I'm on ThiaiZ 2.6, with ICS theme (kept Prada launcher), and removed system apps, like kylereid's suggestion - and using a 20b brazillian baseband used to remove ghost calls problems on thrill, and I've experienced no problems since flashing it. It's perfect - for gingerbread. I am too craving for ICS, and LG did release real3d source code, I guess: developer . lgmobile . com/real3d
ICS update should've been released already, Jelly Bean has already been announced and we'll have official ICS by the end of agust, its too much.
I love the O3D but LG has screwed it up.
well, same history here bros.
-i had the i9000 before, i like it and the communty that support it so much, but it's getting old, so i decided to get something dual-core, bigger and faster.
-bought my girl the SGS2 beforce, we are extremely love it, fast, vivid, light and big big big actively communty, i decided to get me the LG 3D( because of 3D, and we do have SGS2 already), and i must say - this decision is my BIGGEST MISTAKE OF THE YEAR
-the 3D is not as fast as the S2, free ram is too small, cant heavy multitasking on it, battery life is terrible, and of course, GHOST CALLS, my boss, my clients and even my family and my girl started hating me because i didnt answer their calls, when i want to open the camera, it will take 3 seconds or more until the interface appears ect..ect... im too tired and fruscating of it, so i took out the sim and use it as a mp3-player..
-finally i managed to get rid off it, just sold the optimus 3D and bought the moto Atrix 2
huge huge huge differences i must say, there are over 910 MB of RAM here, install all things, open tons of apps but phone still smooth, never go under 150MB free ram (sorry but smooth like iphone 4s, even the animations are very nice) .
while both of the phone have TI 4430 SoC but in the atrix 2 apps open instantly (my op3D opened opera mobile in 2-3 second, but the atrix 2 opens it in 0.5 sec, and never auto close unless i turn off the phone or force-close), camera app opens in about 1 sec ect.......
Im not trolling in this thread, but well, you should avoid LG, and go for other brand (like samsung with the S2, moto with atrix 2, RAZR), LG is good at making TVs but not smartphone..
sorry for my bad english thought.

You guess cause they haven't... It is just the real3d sdk platform that allows devs to create 3d app USING the real 3d framework which is not released as of yet. It is stil proprietary. I querried at lg.opensource and what they said is that they have no immediate plans to release the damn thing. If you think that they DID have immediate plans to release ICS since December and they SAY they will release in summer when they will actually release it in fall if it goes like GB, then you can imagine when and IF they will ever release the real3d framework...
Never man its the goldmine of LG
Ilove my 3D phone
Where ever i am THE ONLY WAN

My mistake, so whats left is hoping Ricardo Cerqueira is still working on cm9 and using dual boot with gb in order to still have access to the 3d stuff. LG could at least release the 3d framework since theyre not willing to release ics anytime soon. Not surprinsing though, its not like LG hasn't disappointed its costumers before.
