I kinda feel left out. It seems everyone has updated or at least tried to update to the Gingerbread release on LGs site.
But after reading how many people had complications or even bricked their phone, I decided not to try and update, hoping that an official "over the air" update will come from tmobile.
Am I the only one that decided it's to risky to try the update and is still on Froyo? Who else has concerns like mines?
I have not either. So far it seems more trouble than it's worth... Waiting on a good, stable release of GB from the devs!

Haven't updated either...I'm running xboarder's GB 2.3.4 and it's pretty stable...still get sod and have overheating issues but they don't happen often.
I want to try out the new update and baseband but don't want to brick my phone as so many have done, so ill just wait a littlebit longer...

Me neither. I wait for a flashable version with new LG drivers and baseband.
I have not either I'm waiting for the Ota...I'm still trying to find out if the update everyone is using is really official or not.

I haven't updated either, mine is the LGP999DWP phone and it keeps saying that my software is up to date. when I read the forums and see how many people are having issues updating to it, i am somewhat glad i can't update right now...wiating for the OTA from T-Mobile I hope they deploy it soon.
i'm also waiting for CM7 to get the latest drivers. but cm7 is already running 2.3.4 so i don't see any reason to downgrade to 2.3.3. from what i have been reading, my cm7 is equal to being as stable as the "OTA". it works great for me.
What GB update?
Lol. Its a downgrade from CM7. While it is nice sometimes to "just work" but my G2x is pretty good on CM7. Occassionally does a nightly give me fits.

yea me neither plus the new miui rom for the g2x is sick
I have not. I tried but the LG updater freezes in Vista.
No update here. I am staying with froyo Dark &Sinister with Faux's kernel. I will only change after the Faux and the other developers incorporate this release inbto their work.
Why didn't LG update to 2.3.4 and skip 2.3.3?

Consensus seems to be that this is still just a development build. Also, given the amount of time it takes to test a ROM on a phone and the frequency that Google updates their OS, I wouldn't be entirely surprised if the final shipped version is still 2.3.3.

I just got finished doing this, WOW the GPS has a fast lock now. Make sure that you flash the BB FIX after you restore you HFP
Guys I cant install the lg update tool. gets stuck around 10% then just stops. Im already having issues and I havent even gotten to the phone part lol help? tried rebooting laptop, running w7 64bit T420 8g RAM. I dont think its my laptop..
UPDATE: added screenshot of where setup gets stuck.
follow this thread. works like a charm. make a backup of your device first.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1248644
the steps in this thread will restore a stock gingerbread rom. when that is done, use nvflash and put the stock recovery back on as well
reboot your phone and do the update that way (over the air). look in About Phone under system settings and you will see a menu item at the top called software update (or something similar). use that to update your phone, you will end up with GB 2.3.4 and the new baseband
if you want to use a custom rom, eaglesblood build 4 has support for the new baseband built in or you can use CM7 RC3 or a currently nightly, or you can use either kwes or buru's roms, OR owain has a bb update zip that is supposed to work on any rom
good luck!
Sorry it just turned out that it was my jobs firewall that didn't allow the install to talk to the Lg servers. I got home and it worked so I now am running HFS 1.8 with the new baseband. Thanks for everyone's help on this.

The only thing I've tried through BT is tethering, as I dont use a BT headset, which works great. Call quality is clearer but not a huge difference. Data drops less often now though.

i starred it and hope it gets fixed one way or the other and i agree, the new stock 2.3.4 works great and getting rid of bloat shouldn't be a problem however, just yesterday and today while running 2.3.4 my phone would just start getting really hot doing nothing but sitting in the holster, screen off, 4g off, BT off, wifi off, dont understand, but i put cm7 june 10 build on and now it doesnt do that
Yeah, I can run custom ROMs and all is well other than Bluetooth for call audio. My problem is I drive all day and have to use Bluetooth, so I'm stuck on stock
Hopefully it will get fixed.
Hey all, there has been ALOT of problems with the ICS ROM (Calling Audio due to BB Issues), but I have found a successful rom that is WORKING (Calling Audio) with the LG Optimus G2X 21y Baseband (March 11 2012 BB).
I have not seen a guide out for the 4.0.4 ICS so I wanted to give a complete thread from scratch on how to root your G2X and then successfully installing the EB4.0.4 ICS ROM.
SOME links that are provided are not mine, they are Mhaedo's and r4dn14n7 (root tutorial) and it pays off to use the SEARCH button. I actually ordered this phone last week and I have never learned so much in under a week of reading on this forum. I will continue to update and post pictures as much as college time allows me. Hope everyone enjoys!
-- I want to remind you that I am ONLY confirming that TEXT + CALLING + WIFI is WORKING. (I am still unsure of Bluetooth and Tethering).
*I have also posted a youtube video at the bottom to show that the ROM IS WORKING. It does not show how to ROOT, but please PM ME if you need help, otherwise this thread covers everything.

I did try out CM9 and did not have any success with the new BB (Kept getting the clicking noise while dialing). I can only confirm that EB4.0.4 is working. Unsure of whether tethering is working. It does have a few lag spikes, but that's if I'm blasting the cpu.

The exception is that bluetooth call audio still doesn't work with new March 2012 baseband unless you're on a stock based Rom.
Also to the OP. There is no need to root your stock Rom if you are using NVFlash to flash CWM.
if im not mistaken, a2dp doesnt work with ANY ics rom available for the g2x. i think its in the same boat with the video camera.

Does anyone know if bluetooth audio (paired with the Sync in my Fusion) works with the old baseband? I made the mistake of upgrading the BB when EB fixed their ASOP 4.0.4 for the 21y. After that I noticed that the bluetooth was finally keeping the device rename and was successfully connecting each time the car started up, but had never gotten a call or tried to make one until last weekend. The screeching was terrible. I'll revert back to the 21e baseband if it solves the bluetooth audio problem.
I went ahead and downgraded to 21e today anyway as a test. I'll report back after I test in the car later tonight.

I am on stock GB 2.3.3 (rooted and installed CWM 5.0.x.x).
I tried hellfire 1.9 but calls were not working due to the old base band and i got a link to install new base band that i need to flash after rom install. But based on this thread, i can just install eagles blood without any base band update and it should work with my calls?

Hellfire1.9 is built to work with the new base band. If you are on the V21e baseband you need to install the fix you mentioned for it to work. The fix is not an updated baseband it is just a few files to make the rom compatible with the baseband you have.
Last I checked(havent used an EB rom in a while), EB and most of the other roms available are still built to be compatible with the older basebands with a fix needed to make them compatible with the newer baseband.
So far the only roms that I know have working bluetooth calling with the new baseband are based on the stock 2.3.4 update. There may be some progress with the latest cm10 based roms but i haven't had a chance to check.
Hope this clears it up a bit and doesn't confuse the situation more

in the OP for the Hellfire Sandwich 1.9 thread there is a link under the 1.9 link for the old baseband version
you need to flash that one and not the main edition as that is for the new baseband. not sure if that link actually works being on mediafire and i am at work and that site gets blocked anyway
So all I have to do is download the g2x 4.1 alpha rom and the calls will be fixed? Does it work for simple mobile?
calls not working

I have a problem I reverted back to the original eclair android 2.1 firmware because my wifi wouldn't work. Heres the thing I go to samsungs website but it says to upgrade you need kies mini to do it. I have windows 7 and can never get to recognize my phone I tried installing drivers it just never worked. I do have a desktop that still has good old windows xp so when I wanna add anything to my phone I do it through that means. My main question is first whats the best firmware version that can be run on samsung captivate. I understand you need to install them in order eclair>froyo>gingerbread. My other question is if I install kies mini on my windows xp machine which doesn't currently have internet to it can I do the upgrade that way without any problems? I was also wondering whats a good stable rom to use?I tried to do att update but i forgot to unfreeze the att apps with titanium backup now I have to wait 24 hours lol but I need an app from the playstore my friend released I'm stuck with market and can get half the apps I had Thanks for any help I really appreciate it. oh and yes my phone is rooted.
I went from Froyo to Jelly Bean on my captivate. Check out Helly Bean or Slim Bean ROMs, both have working version for captivate. I would recommend Slim Bean as its considerably smoother given the limited (outdated) specs of cappy.

I just found this site which has a kies version specifically to my phone.

I also figured out why my samsung would never be recognized for my pc running windows 7. It has something to do with my usb port because when I connect through a usb hub it works fine.
OMG it works Kies Mini works. I also had to unroot my phone first and then remove external sd card.

When I do that my phone gets stuck at a loading screen saying
"Samsung i897" in white letters with samsung logo at bottom of screen with black background. When I changed my kernel back to KK4 it worked fine again and loaded back.
The speedmod kernel is just so u can have cwm recovery to flash ur Rom of choice. It is not meant to boot ur phone.

So if I install a jelly bean slim I lose gingerbread? Which would make some of my apps incompatible from play store? I was also wondering whats with bootloaders and how can I ensure I have it. Judging form my specs is there anything else I need to do before loading a rom or literally just put the rom in a zip folder on one of my sd cards internal or external boot into recovery mode and choose the rom of my choice and from there it will load that rom and thats it?
If u were running kk4 with no probs, then u have the i897 gb bootloaders. And yep, if u flash a jellybean rom u will loose gb. And in order to go back to gb base u will have to use Odin or Heimdall.
As far as flashin a Dev Rom goes...if u have cwm recovery then u r good to go.
