Official ICS is coming! - T-Mobile LG G2x

Check it out!
http://phandroid.com/2012/08/13/lg-optimus-2x-to-receive-ice-cream-sandwich-after-all/
Korean LG says ICS is in testing phase, that's awesome news for us!

Nice, thanks for posting
Finally (maybe) no more limping ICS builds here.

Ya, let's hope one of the devs are still around when it's released =P

This sounds too good to be true... Especially because I can't read Korean...

LG is having a laugh at their customers' expense. I've never seen a company SO inept at just giving a fscking "YES" or "NO" answer about a product.

Oh please oh please don't lie to us or we will just continue to beg you more!! write letters, social media, and petition. I meed a break from all this buddy

I posted this in another thread but our good friend Paul O'Brien's sources say it's "imminent" for the 2X
The will-it-wont-it saga over the Ice Cream Sandwich updates for LG devices has been rolling on for months, but now, thankfully, we've had word from our LG insider on what's REALLY happening!
The news is good. Ice Cream Sandwich updates are nearing completion and will be released imminently for the Optimus 2X, Optimus 3D and Optimus Black! Exact dates are still not forthcoming, but we'll keep you posted with more news as we get it.
I'm really happy for LG users that this is going to happen, the support so far has been pretty shocking and LG really could do with turning it around.

Well here's hoping the LG Insider is right. If he is that means fully supported ICS for the T-Mo G2X once the devs get their hands on it. Not that I am complaining at all about HFP but it would be nice to run a fully supported ICS on the G2X.

Seems I heard this a few times before. I'll believe it when I see... Wait. I got rid of my G2x.
But just for arguments sake that this is true. They are in a testing phase. Which means the earliest this would be release to T-Mobile is what, Jan-Feb. and then they have to test it. So what, the 2 year anniversary of the device? I got my G2x on pre-order. It's been dead. Sorry, but I can't see this being offered as an official update.
No place in the article does it mention an "official update" coming. Seems the articles writer is jumping the gun in this one.

It won't ever be official for TMobile..suppose to be just for Korean o2x correct? But that's when devs can try and port it for those of us remaining hopeless souls

Just trying to be helpful If we can find a Korean O2x user...

We've got smart devs around here, it'll be done for sure. The code isn't going to be in Korean. The only issue is it'll be for the P990 variant...

They have had a working build with their own 3xxx kernel for months. Let us say i have a REALLY good source.

#never again @ lg

Ok.coming from a vibrant, I'm feeling like I'm living it all over again.
We must start now. Someone made a thread about #never again @samsung mobile, demanding a update or they will lose many customers. Many people thought it was stupid, but it worked. We bombarded their twitter and their facebook, and it worked......
http://androidcommunity.com/samsung-android-customers-initiate-neveragain-twitter-campaign-20110114/
Lets link their facebook here and their twitter, and lets get this update to us..
And do it every few hours...
Trust me, it worked, and I'm confident this will work.....

Awesome guys. Seeing some posts on facebook....
Keep it up, they will get the message..
I didn't think this would work on the vibrant but have it a shot... To my disbelief it worked...we must speak for our voices to be heard.....
Calling them is nothing, this is on a public forum for the world to see....they won't want this..

I'm sorry to say but the original NeverAgain was a bit misdirected. In the end, it was T-Mobile who held up the update to support sales of the Galaxy S 4G, not Samsung who had already updated their international models to 2.2.1 by December and to Gingerbread as of now. I suspect this case should be the same as it is the carriers who determine if a update will be pushed. LG only makes the updates, but it has no say in whether or not it will be pushed to the G2X.
its a shame that the us has convinced so many to just sit and take it. people have forgotten the voice of the people works. whats annoying is when some ddecide to use this you get these people saying it wont work when there are so many examples of it working in the history of the us and business.
ill get over there. although io think they know me by now from their forum
edit : ok theres too many please give a link to where we should post i cant find the right place./

On the Lg forums.. Think he's telling the truth? I guess this is better then nothing at all.
Posted by SmartPhoneGeek on 28 Jun 2011 18:53 PM:
As much as I hate to I have to keep things very generic and can't talk about details until an official release is announced. Hopefully my generic comments are better than nothing for you.
It's been working very well for me with improvements everywhere. I'm actually surprised this is not the final version as it feels pretty solid to me. Seeing how well this version is working it seems as if they must be close to completion. And if this version did not pass testing then they must really be putting a lot of emphasis on quality.
http://www.lgforum.com/forum/boards...artphonegeek-dot-dot-dot-its-another-week-and
Those guys are idiots. Seriously. Where was all that testing before the phone was released? Stop playing games... Some people have barely functioning phones and they are stay tight lipped about everything. How about a small patch just to fix the rebooting in the interim? No? Nothing.
No issues with my phone, just frustrated at their handling.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
if some people have "barely functioning phones" it isn't a software upgrade they need.
Well, SmartPhoneGeek is probably the nicest and most responsive mod on the LG forums. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and say that he's probably telling the truth.

I don't think anyone intends to lie. I think they are guilty of embelishing what they have heard or think. We take that embelishment and do critical reviews to the tune of multiple threads with alot of views and replies.
I would think the 1place you could get controlled information that is close to the source would be lg's own forum. They may not be reading from a script but betcha they are reading from something close to official.
From the sounds of it, 2 more weeks. I think someone here said July 15th....and the winning number is...
how about instead of a bunch of half-witted liars testing it they give us a dump of what they have so far, release the source code and let us test it and the devs help out with the process

when its done
Well, we have to consider many things.
First and most importantly, Google just acquired Motorola's mobile phones division for $12.5 billion. That means that they are gonna be a major hardware manufacturer and the phones that they make will probably be able to handle Android better than the rest of the competition.
Also, don't forget that 2011 is the year of the rabbit. The rabbit is a swift little creature and it doesn't like to get caught.
If we compare cyanogemod to the rabbit, and then compare that to google's purchase of Moto's mobile division, then we can clearly see that there's no connection between any of these things.
So long story short, yes, we still don't know. We're all just sitting tight.
sad part is once they get cm7 they will want something else lol
I'm hoping for a MIUI released right after that

That does seem to be the way the world works these days, right? I rofl at people with a sense of entitlement.
Honestly, does it really even matter right now when CM7 will be released? Seemingly every day our wonderful developers are releasing new ROM's. Pick one, love it, and live with it. Or pick a few and love them!

Very understandable. In the time I've been with this forum, I've seen a lot of that going on and it's ridiculous. Internet browsers should pop up a notice saying "Don't forget the search feature!" when somebody opens a new tab or window lol
I'd hate to see you go, also. It would be a loss for us!
Just checked and it said the guy working on the port still needs a kernel

To be honest I have no idea. RyanLG, the LG representative over at the LG forums, told me he sent the petition link along with some pdf's I created (that contained the signatures and comments) to his superiors. That was about like 12 days ago and I asked him about a day ago if there was any news but he still hasn't replied. All I can say is that the more the better but in the end its all up to LG if they want to respond at all.
