i know we had a thread and everything reguarding this and the p990 (2x), however the changelog on BBQLog has the p999 G2x actually implemented into the menu for devices. this is good news for us that have been waiting patiently !!
click LGE and its there offically
http://changelog.bbqdroid.org/#
Was it not there before? And I wouldn't get too excited, the Optimus One is listed there also and I HIGHLY doubt that is going to get official CM10
I believe that's still the cm7 changelog.
It just says cm10
It wasn't there before. When the 2x got close it was there. It wasn't there a couple days ago, that's for sure.
Perhaps for cm7, even if it is for a nightly once a month.

It is certainly new look at the log dates there is work being done today also the work has been done every few hours apart.
No, no and no.
The entry in the BBQLog has been there for quite some time.
If you knew how it worked, you'd also know that all of those changes are generic and have absolutely jack squat to do with the p999.
Try selecting a different, unrelated device if you don't believe me. You'll see the same changes. Maybe more as other devices have cm10 changes checked in.
None of the changes I see on BBQLog say anything about the p999 getting cm10.
My money is on "ain't gonna happen". If it was going to happen, we'd have heard something by now from Ricardo or others. The fact that there's been silence basically tells me that there's a huge roadblock and nobody wants to take the heat for coming out publicly and killing off the G2X's last hope.
EDIT: If I'm wrong, I'll eat a sock.
EDIT 2: Okay, no sock. But I'll eat my words.

I take the silence to mean that no one has really given it a go yet. I think if there was a huge roadblock, they wouldn't keep that a secret. Just today someone posted an unrelated G2X comment on one of RC's G+ posts... If he had tried and didn't think he could get it to work, I think he would have let us know, at least to shut us up a little bit.

That's not necessarily the case. Letting people know this device is hopeless could also cause more people to bug him.
This speculation is unwarranted anyhow. I am however curious to why there hasn't been an update on CM10 for us. I do think that likely there was an unexpected encountered problem like the call bug issue on the O2x and still persisting WiFi drain.
And I have two other devices running a full working CM10, and besides the working camera and better battery life, they really aren't that different in terms of fluidity. If RC releases a ported CM10 for us it will likely still have most of the same issues.
We just have to patient. I mean, I don't have the money to buy another device, so I have no choice. If you have had the opportunity to jump ship... why *Haven't* you already? It's been nearly a full year since LG dropped this phone from support and we found out Nvidia won't share drivers, and some of you are still here complaining?

Never think you understand what an angry programmer will do. They are not like regular people and won't feel at home on earth until the mothership picks them up.
Since ics official for p990 gonna come shortly, I guess latest we get what we want is sometime after source drop.
Beyond that I can't comment on what I don't know. I won't be buying an lg product for two reasons now though.

Idk about original post but 2 things bugs me and this is my first/last time complaining: 1. Its been about a month and not a single word. An yes,no, maybe would be enough so I would atleast know to whether hope patiently or dont hope and 2. I cant do anything about it :'( ow well lol
Agreed just a simple yes after p990 is up and running and no ETA would be all I would need. Sorry I know I will get flamed for this but I can't hold back..... RC is a xxxxxxxx for never answering his over 50 or so inquire's about p999 .... I stopped counting at 50. Even a " I will get to it in time" would be something.

Allow me to play devils advocate....
I don't see anything wrong with people just wanting an update. Even a plain "yes we will eventually get to the p999" just so people are not waiting in vain. That would probably put out a lot of the repetitive "When are we getting cm10" questions. A lot of people are patiently waiting for an update, or a word, or anything and it would be nice to know for sure that something will be done eventually. Right now it just comes across as the project is dead in the water.
I am not bagging on the developers btw. They are awesome because they do this stuff for free and on their spare time, but it would only take a minute to put the word out, if it's a go or not. Just saying...

The moment they say "No", the mass exodus would begin. I wish they'd just come out and say "No" so that this subforum would quiet down.
The p990 just got dropped again from CM support, so doubt we'll get it.
Does RC know that the G2x is also experiencing the bug sound? Maybe some one can port it over to check. It's the only thing holding it back from being Stable.

The P990 won't get CM10 properly working until the ICS source drops for the phone. Luckily there have been rom leaks, but who knows how long it's going to take LG.
And then IF they get the sources we MIGHT get a fully working CM build.
Don't hold your breath guys, a lot of stars have to line up before we'll get anything.

LG-P999 CM7 Build 03
LG f-d up Froyo, CM7 is working on a stable Gingerbread build, and LG is threatening to release a Gingerbread build that's going to fix the dozen problems their Froyo build created. So, the answer to your question is no. I think getting a stable version of anything mainstream on the phone is what everyone is focusing on.

I really am kind of a "the glass is half full" guy but I'm a bit skeptical. The problems we're experiencing on the G2X are the same as those who got the O2X six months ago. Assuming there was a four month development period on the O2X that means whatever is wrong with the s/w has been in place for ten months. It also took months of hammering by our European brethren before LG even publicly admitted there was a problem with the O2X. Knowing in advance the O2X had problems I got the G2X anyway thinking LG couldn't/wouldn't allow a repeat performance. We all see how that turned out. Unless LG hired away top HTC and Samsung programmers to build their 2.3.3 ROM the question of quality is a good one. I really really want LG to redeem themselves and I hope they do. Perhaps Paul would be interested in relocating to Seoul?

Cant wait for this to be put on this device. Tried a Galaxy Nexus at the local store and was amazed at the software. I would get one of those but seriously Tegra 2 is better than sgrx 540, Trust me that GN can not do what this G2x can in terms of gaming!

The Nexus One was destined for high end development anyways...But even the freaking HD2 now has ICS. Now thats ridiculous
But yah, ICS really has nothing to be depressed over. Except for the hardware acceleration capability...now CM9 is a whole other thing. But i'm sure CM9 will be available way before LG drops the major update.
I spent a few hours installing ICS on my daughter's Samsung Vibrant. It was nice to play with but not totally earth shattering. Some UI changes (improvements?), some different features. I was very excited about ICS now after spending some time with it, I can be patient and for the developers to work it out.

Let not your heart be troubled.
Before you smash the G2x, flash Phoenixblood rom + Faux latest cm kernel and let us all know how you feel about your G2x then lol
I think just about all of us are anticipating cm9 but i believe i have found the best cm7 experience with 0 flaws imo with PhoenixBlood rom
To me is not really about ics, its about how they treat us (g2x users) if it wasn't for cm7/cerqueira this phone would be nothing, im glad i got a good one but many people got ****ty phones and the only reason they did gb was because of the lawsuit. They don't want to give us a fish (updates) and they sure as hell don't want to teach us how to fish (drivers).
I for sure dont want nothing to do with lg/nvidia, had a chance to get 2 cheap LG tvs for xmas, went with another more expensive brand!

It ran fine without any bug and everything working. It sucks because there is no CM Settings menu.....thats where most of the feature that I use daily are located. losing all those features to gain better new looks is pointless.
I like this phone but, because of the lack of support for it, not LG, NVIDIA and Google. Although it's blasphemy stating this on an Android focused website forum, because of the total messup with this phone, except for the devotion of independent developers and others who support/supported this phone, I will not be buying anything with NVIDIA in it, made by LG, and probably not Android. I am going to seriously consider phones which run the new Windows OS and the iPhone 5 when it comes out.
This about sums it up Lol.

Thanks for giving the SK4G new hope. Cant wait to see some progress although I know that's going to take some time
Yea, My hope is to get 3 different kernels running on this phone in two weeks. It may take a little bit longer.
1) cm6 based on the stock froyo kernel src drop.
2) teamacid's current 2.6.35 gb/ics
3) teamacid's port of aries 3.0.8 ics (eventually jb)
After the kernel is up and booting a basic set of features on the rom, I'll be sending it back to TLS and pushing out some test images.
There will be new recoveries and... I'm sure... a fist full of problems to work through. But it's a start.
Thanks again to nxd!

Not to say he's going to put out something unstable, but keep in mind he's pretty much developing from the ground up and problems can arise.

(Which he said he'll be doing). Unless you're willing to jump into the fire, I don't recommend it. Not to say he's going to put out something unstable, but keep in mind he's pretty much developing from the ground up and problems can arise.

Nah, don't need unbrickable mod for kernel testing.
I will do it if something bad happens, but I doubt that will happen.

Oh? Lol, I thought kernel flashing was dangerous if done wrong. You're the pro though lol, so all bets are on you. xD

Worst case scenario, I act like a total newb and flash the kernel to a bootloader partition. FAIL!
But, I'm sure I'll be a bit more professional then that.
With the kernel, the worst case scenario is having issues going from BML -> MTD or MTD back to BML. (Read this for explanation of BML and MTD)
But that shouldn't affect the SBL (Secondary BootLoader), so I should still be able to use a usb jig to get to download mode and go back to BML at any time.
The last worst case scenario is being totally silly stupid and fat finger a voltage setting and hard bricking the phone by over volting or over heating.
At that point, I'd just buy you a new phone.
Lol no offense I'm not sure I'd need one. The only reason I still have the Sidekick is for a backup in case my Galaxy S 2 decides to commit suicide.

yeah im excited but my sk4g might remain in my arsenal if we get some non tw going
TLS i have the same case as u
bhundven if things go south with TLS's sk4g, i can send mine.
OMG potrait mode video, we are doomed,
Happy that this has happened and hope to test soon the new development.
This thread has served it's purpose. Bhundven has the SK4G now.
/thread and farewell thread!
It's nice for you to send him the Sidekick 4G.
But, PM me, MA is Obvious MA.

Great Great, glad to see everybody settled.
Hope this section get's elevated soon.

G2x-CM7 Nightly 11/25/12 Build, Trinity ELP Kernel
I saw that too.
I encourage everyone of us here to go and make more noise in order to get at least ICS for the G2x too.
Ladies and Gentlemen, like "Star Wars Episode IV", this might be our New (and Last) Hope.
Thanks,
LG Optimus 2X got ICS in Europe

Not everyone immediately understands the implications of this. No need to ridicule. Can someone explain practically if this means anything new for P999? I thought that once this happens it would be easy to get it working for us.
This is really good news for us. So far no one has been able to create a working build using the SU660's kernel source. The P990 Kernel source will likely play a lot more friendly with our device (P990 & P999 are a lot more similar than Su660 & P999); hopefully we can get something working. I'm very optimistic that we will get fully working CM10. Here comes the excitement!

I feel you on that...lately, all I ever seem to do here is get in a thread, smh and hit the back button...sigh
This is awesome news! I just upgraded from an Optimus V to a G2X two days ago and then this happened. Hackfest is working pretty well for me already so it can only get better from now on.

But it's the real deal this time! The 2x actually had the official release without the su660/korean version.
But then again I feel you, when entering the g2x threads im constantly already feeling that nothing has changed.
Only time will tell.

Story of our lives, isn't it? :highfive:
As far as from what I can remember there couldn't be a port of lg ui 2.0 from p990 because it was requested quite a few times back when there were developers on the g2x and it either was extremely hard or couldn't be done, and the ICS update released today is lg ui 3.0 so I think its gonna be a lot harder than it sounds guys but I hope its possible because my dad still has a g2x and I would want for him to enjoy what android has to offer these days

Nobody is going to port the lg ui, only use the drivers from the p990 source to make a working cm10

I hope so. RC is ignoring the P999/G2X at this point and won't tell anything about if he will do anything for it. He has taken the P990 off his list and hasn't indicated he will resume CM10 for it.

He's really talented and good at what he does, but the communication is non existent. I wish he'd take a couple minutes to say if he has any plans for us.

It's just simply not constructive for arcee taking time out of each day to address tardates on each new thread criticizing, suggesting, making false speculations about his work on the 2x project. It's like he's driving around to the candy store and we're a bunch of little kids in the back of the car screaming ARE WE THERE YET? ARE WE THERE YET?
It makes a sane man want to drown a baby. A good parent would simply turn around and go back to the gingerbread house and make us goto bed early. Since he's likely to receive praises that would make Jesus's wine crafting look like the art of nubcake, he surely wouldn't hinder the progress but he has GOT to be sick of the moaning, groaning, and complaining that exists in EVERY SINGLE THREAD here.
Face palm is right. I have to wear a muzzle while staying updated on this forum, I've broken my nose twice and it whistles when I breathe. Thanks guys.

I think you're overreacting to a little thing. Yes, everyone should patiently wait but you're making this a bigger deal then it needs to be. Sounds like you're saying this just for karma and for a little appraisal like, "OH MAN WHAT A GOOD ROLE MODEL KIDDECKS IS EVERYONE SHOULD BE LIKE HIM" All they really said was that he doesn't communicate as well as some other people do. There are people that constantly post their updates and some that don't. It's just something someone said. Plus, if you read those 2 posts closely nobody made it a big deal. Someone said "I wish" and the other person said "no big deal" Nobody made it a big deal... You overreacted...
Anyways, I'm going to be following this thread closely to see if there's any USEFUL information. So stop posting useless stuff like this. It just takes up space and nobody wants to see it.
There's a dev who posted what he has so far of the CM10 kernel and so far it's great. Not sure if he did anything with the P990 update though. Still, everyone's being patient and it's great. Nobody is rushing anything. I think P999 users are used to waiting. It's been, what, 410 something days since ICS was released? A few more months really wouldn't even matter at this point.
RC did communicate about the timeline. It was very clear and completely appropriate. I wouldn't have lasted half as long as he did before I blocked out all the whining and screaming "supporters" and left the park to go back to my own sandbox and play with my real friends.
He was getting hundreds of useless messages and comments on anything he touched so he said f this. Now it's all third hand.
RC has kept awesome communication throughout all his work and if you have any beef with this then your an deltitne tihs.
