Hey folks,
So the Chrome team finally released Chrome for Android and you can find it here:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.android.chrome
But it seems like it doesn't support the G2x?
I can't find it on the Market App on my phone, and when I go directly to its page on the web and try to install it, it doesn't show a supported device. I wonder if this is only for rooted G2x's with custom ROMs, or if it just won't work on the G2x.
I have the latest SinghUI on mine, but I suspect Chrome just doesn't support LGE LG-P999's at all right now. Is it just me or is this happening to anyone else?
You need to have ICS (Android 4.0) for this app.
When you look at apps on market.android.com, it will show that on the right hand side, this app says:
REQUIRES ANDROID:
4.0 and up
So yes, doesn't support G2X yet, as G2X doesn't have 4.0
It only works with ICS according to the press release.
Oh. Duh. Thanks.

Still not 4.0 its 2.3 with some parts from 4.0. Sick of all the miui users thinking they're running ics

I don't think MIUI users think they are using ICS at least I hope not. They just added some ICS functions into the framework, but since the Galnet lists the OS as 4.0 in the system information it might work most likely not though.

Galnet MIUI is just a gimmick created to get users to use and support their work. Looks and functions exactly like Gingerbread MIUI.
If you go into most miui threads alot of people think they're running ics. A friend of mine who I didn't know was into hacking android was showing someone how he was running ics on his old htc. When I looked at his phone and saw what it was I backhanded him across the face, explained to him what he really had running and then challenged him to a duel

You shouldn't have backhanded him. The proper way to challenge someone to a duel is to remove your glove and slap them with it.

If Galnet is really ICS, then why wouldn't there be a stock version of ICS for the G2x.....Guys just think about it for a second before jumping to conclusions!!!!!

why would it work if it doesn't have actual 4.0? also i was reading somewhere chrome is not supporting flash (or i guess adobe is not supporting chrome..whatever is politically correct).
It won't work and I remember reading that also about chrome not having flash supported in it

I cannot share them exactly... i got them from a Paid Application called Absolute System. It's a root tool I strongly recommend this app. But anyway i can share a link with you from a flashable .zip here on XDA.

I too use that font. If you are going to use the flashable zip on a gingerbread rom you have to downgrade to cwr 2.5.1.x with amend script support.
there is a pure 2.3 gingerbread that faux put out. its not CM or anything its a base ASOP thats been built straight from google code if you want to check it out. its in the rom development area.
Yeah, was going to recommend Faux's AOSP build in the dev section. I haven't used it, but it is probably as close to pure AOSP as you are going to get and still be functional. Check it out.
Don't forget about ultimate Droid, 3.2.0 new for mytouch that has Gingerb, and idk if its vanilla but I can install the rom with 2.5.1.2 recovery, if that means anything at all lol

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/13939-rom-miui-port-miuius-galnet-miuiandroid-updated-01212012/
It's ICS on MIUI. It's working on my phone, and it's butter smooth.
I love it.
All you have to do is install the galnet MIUI build on the link, and then install the MIUI ICS build right there.
It's beautiful.
Tell me what you guys think!

I'm pretty sure it isn't the real deal, just a very close mod.
That's been out for some time. It's just a Miui Galnet build that they claim has some framework tweaks from ICS. And that link is a port from Legend.
Here's details of the Galnet ICS Miui build:
http://galnetmiui.co.uk/landing/ics-change-log/
I had ported a version for myself also and it was very smooth but i found no real difference or benefit.
Edit: just noticed your link there mt3g
Also, Many folks just don't know about it here because Galnet builds are banned at XDA
Why are they banned here??? And they dont have a p999 version.

They don't, but the one in the OP is a port to P999 from O2x.
I already posted a thread about this earlier in Q&A, It's BS not ICS. They just altered the version number. That's probably why they're "banned", for making false info, low quality ports. MIUI was fine until I installed the ICS build over it then it got stupid, no vibration on touch, missing sounds and nothing that even remotely resembled ICS. Don't waste your time they are just praying on your eagerness. One more thing; if this was a working ICS build Cyanogen would also have a working build...food for thought.
ALL BS http://galnetmiui.co.uk/landing/ics-change-log/
Not quite, only an MIUI regular build with pieces of ICS functionality integrated into it. Thanks for sharing though!

Also consider that the International sgs2 uses the Exynos421x processor, where as the sgs4g uses the intrepid-hummingbird S5PC110 processor. Totally different.
7TimesCursed just gave me a tip that will help me move forward with CM7. (something I was hung up on)
CM9 is also still under development. A port would mean a buggy phone.
An ICS port would indeed be better.
After CM7 port is done, I still have plans to rebase our phone specific kernel stuff to the samsung aosp kernel. That my help us port to the 3.0.1 kernel that ICS uses. This is still a ways off, and hopefully by then CM9 will stabilize.
To the future!

No worries! I was trying to be more informational.
Is it possible to get MIUI ICS ported to this phone? I love MIUI but it would be wonderful to have the 4.0.3/4.0.4 version on this phone. I would have posted this in Q & A but I figured we could have a discussion on this thread. Don't flame me. Its very annoying.
On rootzwiki whitehawkx posted a guide on how to port it over to our phone.
I believe it should also work for ICS.
Afaik there is no Miui ICS port possible at this time. There's only 8 models supported I think and not for the P999 or P990.
Again this is afaik.

I know, I wasn't sure if the instructions are the same for the ics version. Since ics is a completely different firmware. /:
Galnet miui had a version you flashed over a 2.x.x install, making nggn it miui v4. Never did it myself, but that's an option. Baji's port thread has it listed.

galnet ics miui is one of the smoothest roms i've used on the g2x.
It has been ported to our phone,bot nobody can get data working!
The Galnet Miui ICS port is very outdated now (2.11.26). Even then Galnet just claimed to have some ICS framework hacks. Don't think they have a V4.

Until LG officially releases ICS for the G2X, not a single ICS Rom currently out there is "Stable" by how you're using it. There are some GREAT ICS Roms out there for the G2X, but they all share the same problems (No HW Accel for video, Video Recording being bleh, etc.)

I've tried 4 different ICS roms. None are "stable". Some are slow and laggy and others freeze and reboot. GPS doesn't lock quickly either.
Flashed back to stock 2.3.4 rom and everything works as intended.
