Congrats to JCase for the first Gingerbread Release

As most of us, I have been following this since the leak this morning and we now have a flashable release over at AndroidPolice.com (http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/05/16/download-leaked-gingerbread-rom-for-the-htc-thunderbolt/)
I am personally waiting until das BAMF comes out with their next version based on GB just so I don't have to download and configure another rom within days, but again, congrats to Jcase.

Wasn't the leak file a Trojan Virus?

Ha yeah...Adrynalyne said it was a trojan to free up bandwidth for dev's to download it. The original "leak" was not flashable and people would have messed up their phones if they jumped the gun too early. Probably did himself and the rest of the community a BIG favor (no threads titled "Help I tried to flash the leak and screwed up my phone")

Has anyone tried this yet with 4G? Will this work with Titanium Backup so I do not have to reload all my info and apps?
Thank you!!!

It just hit within the last 30 minutes or so. Right now it may just be a trial and error thing. Just do a nandroid backup of your current rom and start experimenting. Let us know

I wish the OP would update the thread to make sure people got the full story...
Also, I have a Dedicated Web Server and could have hosted if bandwidth was such an issue, though it's all hindsight at this point.

What full story...the rest of it a whole 2-3 threads down. It's not like it's 25 pages away like the rest of the information in that thread. I put this out here because not everybody lives in the dev section waiting for new stuff to drop.

Running it right now, seems to be working great except for the camera issue.

100% working. Rooted and debloated. Well everything other than the camera. Love it!

I hope we end up with some kind of video call software.
Rumors about Skype working proper and maybe even a Google app that works.
Hope so anyway.
Looking forward to the updated Bamf that's for sure.

Thanks to slayher for the first gingerbread release.... his has been out for weeks. Unless you meant for releasing the leak which is completely different.

Probably your network. I dont think the rom would be throttling your speeds.. you would either have a connection to 4g or not.

Dual boot manager

So I saw this app on Lifehacker:

Has anyone tried this on our phones? I'm very interested in using it but I'm not going to buy it if it's known to not work.

Gflam 1 of the co developers of this is my rom partner. We did a rom called sourcery together. i finally put recovery on today and was suppose ot work on getting him the info to make it compatible. But he was busy. Ill post as soon as its supported. and i do some testing for him.

That be cool.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App

Wow, that would be awesome! Not yet officially supported on our phone according to link. Seems like it would be pretty buggy running on SD.
Somewhat on topic, this is one of the reasons I got an LG phone. I work with VMware products in my job and they've partnered with LG to work on giving users the ability to run a business and personal accounts simultaneously through virtualization. Not 100% sure if it is actually a whole other ROM but it looks like it from the demo. If it's true virtualization for phones, I could see you being able to run multiple ROMs.
Check it out. Might be another option when it comes out:
http://communities.vmware.com/commu.../lg-vmw-partnership-follow-up-with-demo-video

The dev on this sent me an email and said they are working on this device and one of his guys is testing it out now. It should be available soon. The dev was also very helpful and very quick to respond to my email.

i have tried the v.1.2 of this app and had no luck just error when it was trying to create a boot.img of the rom i was wanting to install. i'll guess i'll go back to doing a nandroid backup of the other rom and just reflash the backup when i want to use it. at least that way works. i was really looking forward to giving this app a go as well, just a shame really..........sudeki300

NETFLIX FOR THE G2X will arrived soon

Hello everyone today I just got off the phone with netflix and told them my issue with the netflix app for the g2x, they basically told me the tech people are working on it I know the solution of the problem its basically the build prop( for example most android phones have model numbers but the rest its doesn't match so therefore the app is confuse of the model and the manufacture.) my suggestion is to call netflix if you have the g2x and tell them that it doesn't work the more people who call they can update it faster. and i know it works for eagle-blood and cm7 but if you like a Rom that your comfortable with why change it, its your rom and you deserve the best. take care people.

Running good here....

Runs great on MIUI. Watched family guy and a few movies while I was out of town.

LMAO I spit my drink on the screen I LOL'ed so hard

Really? Who gives a flying fig if it works on custom roms. This thread isn't about that. Stop building your post counts by adding crap that doesn't pertain to the thread.

I have tried MIUI several times and have come to the conclusion that if I wanted an iPhone I would buy one. WiFi drops constantly and WiFi calling doesn't work. There is no option to adjust HDMI output and HBO Go doesn't work. I will say the camera is better and the toggle screen is great, but other than that it doesn't work for me.
To OP - Thanks for the update. I have called several times and have yet to hear anything close to them admitting they are working on it. Every time I call they blame LG. Here's hoping we see something soon.

This is getting ridiculous.

wtf people, everyone knows it will run on a custom rom, It has for a while, what the op is about is running netflix on a stock rom, I have tried all the custom roms and none have working bluetooth, which i use my bluetooth daily on my motorcycle for music, texts, and gps. So please stop posting what everyone already knows. Until these custom roms support ALL the hardware that came with my phone they are useless, tried them all, some are great but none offer bluetooth and netflix.

Maybe you should change the thread title to say stock because it will continue to happen lol

[Q] ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich 4) for XT720?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-F_ke3rxopc&feature=channel_video_title
Looks amazing.
Probably too early to be asking this - especially considering we only recently got gingerbread - but what do you guys think are the chances of having ICS on the XT720?

Not at all, it req. 512 mb of ram minimum

yup out of question for our dated phone

Oh well. Guess I can begin considering what my next phone is going to be lol.

Well our "What will your next phone be" thread got moved for some reason to the non-phone specific general discussions sections of XDA proper.

getting gingerbread (CM7) run stable on xt720 is the last we can do for our phone
but ICS look amazing, next summer when it gets more popular I'll consider choosing one to upgrade

Honestly, I'm getting very, very, very tired of Google's constant API and apps abandonment cycle. Even if you get an ICS device, Google is bound to abandon it within a year. I am this close to just abandoning Gmail.

I here you going back windows mobile very Lilly.

Haha to funny woodrube. I hope you ate that and didn't waste it. all in all tho I played with ics a lil bit on my nexus and its pretty sweet. I really like the new youtube app and browser. It was still pretty smooth for being a sdk port. I'm sure you guys will see it before long. The only thing I'm afraid of is the RAM situation. If they get it on the og Droid you guys will get it for sure.

i was thinking.... if they were able to make ICS run on the Nexus ONE, shouldn't we be able to get it working for the XT720 as well?
both phones are from the same era

any chance of ics?

so ics is all the rage. im seeing older and less comparably equipped devices getting it. now by no means can i develop anything so im not complaining that we dont have it. im just wondering if its in store for us. thoughts...

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.
