Yeah, comments on someone's facebook post is far from official. LG even referenced a page that contradicts its own statement. I will just chalk this up to a dumb pr rep and forget this ever happened

I don't know why you guys are so pessimistic. They're the same phone, only different partitions. Do you really think they'll release a rom for one phone then say "Eh changing the partition table is too much work even after recreating all these drivers and framework. "?
I mean they could, but I really doubt it.

The problem is t-mobile and not lg. T-mobile has to install there own apps into the rom and do there own beta tests. That cost money which I'm betting t-mobile isn't willing to spend

Let's just encourage LG. With some encouragement they might do better. After all 2.3.4 was a really good update
Sent from my Handheld Portal Device
I seriously doubt they would go through the trouble of releasing 2.3.4 GB and then release ICS same quarter. The rep never stated that ICS would be released 2nd quarter, they said "an update" will be released 2nd quarter. Well, that update is already here and it ain't ICS. With the G2x being end-of-life, we're lucky to have gotten that, not at the fault of LG but because T-Mobile isn't going to dish out extra money for a phone they no longer sell. They want you to buy the new stuff and renew your contract. It is doubtful that an official ICS update will be released for the T-Mobile G2x simply for this fact, though I guess not impossible. Once the O2X gets its update the developers will have all they need for a "complete and stable" ICS ROM. Who here is going to stick with a stock ROM anyway? Not many.
Either way, even if they just release a P990 (O2X) version that's good enough. They release the source code here:
http://www.lg.com/global/support/opensource/opensource.jsp
When it's released, so the dev's can just modify what's needed from the O2X and make it work for the G2X (like they've done with other ROM's), so don't get your knickers in a knot!

What about the P999 on Wind? I don't own it, but as far as I know it doesn't have the T-Mobile stuff. If it's available for that you can easily put it on a G2x.
from now on I will know to get a PURE Google phone like the Galaxy Nexus. this way we will receive all updates when they come out.

Hi guys,
Nothing scientific about my theory, but I dont think we will see an update until after the sensation comes out. T-Mobile knows there are a great number of people annoyed with the bugs the G2x has, and some of these people might be willing to jump to the sensation.
If the G2x update came out prior to the sensation release, it might actually hurt sensation sales because G2x satification would rise.
Just a thought, could be totally wrong.

the g2x is tmobiles flagship phone... you really think they are stalling the update on purpose?
i dont see how it would hurt sensation sales anyway, the phones are so different... i didnt want to wait for a sensation because of many other reasons...
The GB update comes out in the summer, which isn't here yet (6/21).
The sensation is out before so your theory is "true" one way or another.
Wait... what?
T-Mobile already made their money for the people who bought the G2x. A lot of people who will jump ship will still be within they're return period in which case Tmo doesnt make any more money off that same person buying the sensation.
Of course there are those who will jump ship outside of their return period, selling their G2x themselves. In that case tmo does make a little extra cash but I doubt their counting on that. I dont think the update has anything to do with the pending G2x release.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but Tmo's real money maker is the monthly plans. They care not about selling this device or that device or delaying this update or that update on purpose.

LOL, I have seen this play out several times on the Nexus One Forum.
1. After several days of people posting about checking and several faults alarms.
2. Someone will actually get the up-date and not know enough to do a logcat.
3. More reports and claims of faults alarms, then screen shots will start.
4. Finally someone will actually post a link to the update.zip
5. Then a bunch of Noobs jump the gun, flash update, and loose root and custom recovery.
6. After a couple of hours someone competent will create a rooted, deodext Rom that can be flashed from recovery without bloat and everyone can be happy

rofl. I love it.
To me, it can make sense to wait or to just release it. They obviously have a brand new phone that needs an update. That is hurting them, money wise, more then just releasing the update.
Although you may have people hold out for the Sensation. Either way you have some people who have a G2x now, looking to buy a G2x or Sensation, and some who got pissed, sold the phone, and moved to Verizon.
I always believe to fix the problem as soon as possible. The longer it goes on the deeper the cuts.
My G2x is fantastic though on CM7. So while I may benefit from the update indirectly, I'm not sitting by watching the clock for it.

Hope its tru but you never know. I got a female tech rep two days ago. She was already usin a Jail broken phone and informed me rooting and flashing a rom to my
g2x was simple and hard to brick. Had been doing reserch now 24 hours later check the signature

Interestingly, when I spoke to an executive at T-Mo on Friday about this he said that they had pushed back the date indefinitely and that he would send me a pre-paid return label to send him the two G2x's that I have for a full refund.
I doubt he would want to buy the phones back from me if an update was right around the corner.
i wont be getting it. I cant even check for updates without it FC
what happens is I go to check for updates, it FC saying something about settings.

So, can someone who works at TMo CAPTURE and LEAK this ota test update?
Maybe it contains some non-**** hardware drivers for the devs to work with before the "real" release (which will be released....who knows when).

Yes they can. They would have to capture the OTA before they download it though. The TMO testing is probably the best chance to get a leak before it is officially released. Or maybe we'll get lucky and Football will get us the leak

Just saw the update to the original article; it's apparently not nationwide but only for a specific region, which reduces the pool of potential leakers. It's encouraging, though, to see that this is far enough along to warrant an OTA test with a relatively large pool of testers, as well as to see that it appears to be a combined bug-fix and Gingerbread update. I'm beginning to think that the prognosticators who favor a mid-July general release may have it right.

im just wanted to pass this along
and i will appreciate no hateful comments against LG/Tmobile.
we have this phone and we just go from there
Well, we're getting ICS either way thanks to Cyanogen... But it would be nice if LG and T-Mobile still showed some love for our phones!
I kind of doubt we will see another OTA update anytime soon but if we do great.
T mobile is all about the Sensation and Galaxy S 2, and LG has had enough if this fiasco of a phone. Cyanogen is the only hope of this ever getting another update, of any flavor.

it was 2.3.4 and their ota its 2.3.3 i talked to my friend today to see if he heard anything of another ota for the g2x. he said no he hasnt heard anything and pretty much they have forgotten or given up with the g2x.
my opinion on this is if this phone isnt going to be that much of a deal to companies. well i thing NVIDIA should release their drivers to the devs!!!

If the "OTA" is going to be 2.3.4, it's going to be outdated. We've been on 2.3.5<-- for almost 2 months now. (Well, with CM7, EB, Faux123, MIUI, etc.)
well that would be nice to see 2.3.4 at least.. maybe they can make the damn 4g icon and signal bars green like gingerbread is suppose to be. then give us the lg cam back then hopefully give us gtalk with video chat.. since skype hates tegra 2's and wont support are phones.. i shouldnt have to root my phone to get things that should just work with a stock rom.

Correct, it's just with google on the back of the phone like the G2. Only Google phones made are the nexus line.
Hell will freeze over before this phone gets another official update. If you wont root and update it yourself but are savvy enough to use xda you have no one to blame but yourself.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
The difference is that the devices in the Google Nexus line have their roms developed by Google engineers. Other devices must rely on the respective manufacturer to update them. On the Nexus line Google also pushes out the OTA themselves and never takes them down like T-Mobile did for the G2X. That was lame. Why not keep the OTA on your servers forever like Google does. Plus Google lets anyone get the OTA on any carrier. TMO limited it to people connected to their network (not even MVNOs) only. Since Google does their testing of new versions of Android on their own Nexus line, new roms get pushed out pretty darn fast. Soon, alas, they are going to declare the venerable Nexus One end of life (EOL) and stop providing roms for it. It might get ICS but we'll have to wait and see.
But the G2X is a great phone and the differences between 2.3.3 and 2.3.4 and 2.3.6 are so minimal there is nothing really to be upset about. No O2X worldwide has even gotten any official versions of GB yet, so you can be thankful, for once, that the US is a litigious society and the class action forced LG to release GB before they planned to. But now that they did, any future versions are questionable. LG doesn't have a good record of updating phones very often or very quickly.
i almost got to the point where i was gonna trade my g2x for a nexus s just because its a google phone and i know it will always be updated fast. but its hard to down grade from the g2xs nice specs

I'd much rather keep my G2X, even if it was still on 2.2, rather than trade for a Nexus S. Keep your G2X.
I just noticed that the twitter post about the Optimus 2X ICS update has been taken down...

The optimus black related post is still up...

Maybe this means that they were mistaken and we might get an update after all... Here's to hoping!
Or they just forgot to take off the other tweet lol.

Even if we get no ICS in North America at least somewhere in Europe we have a chance.

Though there is still hope... this is only confirmed for canada, as long as one country gets the update we all will. :fingers crossed:

This just gave me hope! There just might be a possibility even though it might just be a slim one, but you never know.

"Statement is Canada only." Well considering in Canada we don't even have official Gingerbread, I think we're back to the point we were a few weeks ago. There's hope :good:

Yep, that's true. Now we should hope that somewhere in Europe or Asia ICS will get released or the O2x. It's just a matter of time until we find out...

if/when ics does come, how long do u think the g2x will stay relevant in the market? Cause it does got blazing specs.Yeah there is gs3 out and all the htc Ones but they just dont seem "quality" products to me. only other thing im considering is the galaxy nexus. I think if ics came out the g2x should be able to last another year or two until google brings out something completely new like key lime pie or kettle corn. If ics does come out then ima wait till the next gen nexus with next gen android is out
Possibly good news from our good friend Paul O'Brien. He says it's definite and even "imminent" for the 2X.
