I think we will get Android L update, make sense, if a Samsung S4 with Snapdragon 600 getting it...
I also texted to LG Hngary about the new ui. Got the same information also. If you want to translate its Hungarian language
Next time, ask if we can expect it to arrive before 2015
I chatted with them few days ago but was told they had no info about futute updates -,-

G2 is not an old device. Optimus G is an old device. Why would they say, that they got an info about UI update... Makes no sense. Anyway we have to sit and wait.
I know that Sony always updates most of their devices to a new UI introduced with a new device, so it makes sense for LG to do that to.

Yep, maybe with new version. If LG decide that we will skip, 4.4.3/4.4.4 then we jump to L right away. But UI update can come with a simple update also, without version upgrade, anyway... We must wait.
maybe the G2 users will get the G3 UI for Android L that would be good better as 4.4.4 but i aint sure about it

Guys did u notice one thing,..., the camera app has the same icon as froyo..?
same goes for gallery, phone book, calc, ... the list goes on...
Also, battery, signal, 3g...are all weird ... especially signal...its supposed to turn green when its connected to google servers, isn't it?
Are u sure this is the " ufficiale " Gingerbread ROM for Optimus One p500 ?
Somehow I don't think LG will post such a HUGE RELEASE in such a small manner - video - that only a few come to know about ( initially )....( just thinking out aloud )

also on facebook:
We are still working on a new version that improves the management of the MicroSD (avoiding unwanted disconnections) and the management of the touch (do not let the CPU goes to 100% when you touch the display).

Use common sense, please.
It's an official LG facebook page for Italian customers. The announcement was also made in Italian. Yes, it's official. But yes, it'll be made in English as well.
But I believe we will get it before the Italian version.

LGintheBox says, that the Kernel is 2.6.35.10-perf [email protected] #1
I don't know what to believe. The release date keep getting pushed out. Last I was told, it should out in May...
I think LG wait for the Optimus 2x gingerbread update......Optimus One mustn't be the first phone with 2.3.....
Well, i think it will roll out on other country first, way before Italy...
I am on a Singaporean FW. Hope that means we will get it sooner. Praying...
We'll just have to wait and see.
Hopefully it will be released by the end of this month, but if it will be July, also not a big problem.
One way or the other, we're getting an official Gingerbread.
Optimus one gingerbread update delayed to august..yesterday i sent a mail to lg india asking about the earliest eta for gingerbread update

i tot delay until July ??
when delay until August ???
I think they released the buggy leaked version intentionally for guys like mik , frnaco , andy to fix it . I am sure that , if the leaked version bugs are fixed , the 2.3 will appear .
LG two words for you... @#$% YOU!!!! Lazy ass!!!
Hahahah IMHO within some days they'll make some leaked sources "magically" appear and when our developers will have fixed them, they'll just copy the fixes and release GB for O1...
This is hardly a surprise. Have you noticed that no LG phones have gingerbread at all? Not even the brand new ones. I think the ginger update will only be released when it works on all phones including the Optimus 2X and the Optimus Black. I don't really think we will see the update for the Optimus One before then.
Anyhow, I think this is mostly irrelevant. I got this phone back in November as a stop gag / entry point onto the smartphone land and it served it's purpose. To me, there isn't much point in updating it.
That doesn't mean old phones shouldn't be updated, they should, but with the Android update methods/structures I can't see this being very feasible. That's why I eagerly await to see what will Google do with Ice cream Sandwich to keep that "18 months" up to date promise they made. If the answer isn't very convincing I'll just switch to Windows Phone 7. That's what I originally wanted but the platform wasn't very mature, now with the Mango update things look very different.
All in all, let's see what Google will do on Q4 and then I, and you guys as well, will decide what to do.

Well man, from your point of view maybe you're right...
But I choosed Android because it is an open-source OS, so it has its pros and its cons... The mainly pro is that if your brand doesn't decide to update your OS or your phone is not supported officially, there will be a developer who will try to port another source to your device...
I emailed LG few times, and still wating for an answer, if any one done his own reaserch post it here so we could get some info.
Atm i talked with a LG guy, and he sayed they will upgrade 4x , but he dont know when and how :laugh:
He sayed they are working on it atm but propably ther would not be any official release for l9 only some sources. Still wating for more info.

I have yet to see any phone released not get at least one update. It might not always be in the most timely of manners but an update always seems to be inevitable. I think they are almost forced to make at least one no matter the popularity of the phone. I had a Samsung Behold II and we got at least one update and I would say it was probably the least popular phone at the time. So unless you can show me a phone that has been out for more then a year that hasn't had at least one version update then I'm sure the L9 will get it.
Also never trust reps either on the phone or in person. They don't have much more information then what you can find in press releases on the web.

The Htc one v(less then a year) started with ics and It won't be upgraded to jelly bean for sure (confirmed by htc).
Even the galaxy s wasn't upgraded to ics back then.
There are a lot of phones that didn't receive an upgrade.
There are other factors to consider other than the phone's release date.
Anyway, I think this phone will get JB

Looks like the only reason it's not getting Jelly Bean is because the One V only has 512mb of ram. I guess that's a deal breaker. Otherwise it seems like it would of got it. Also the Galaxy S started with Eclair if I remember correctly so it has received updates.

yeah samsung where douchbags for not upgrading galaxy s1 to ics.
because lg did upgrade the l optimus blaxck ot ICS, and the phones have same specs, and lg ui and touchwizz ui are i think same in ram and performance.
samsung just didnt wanted to update it;
and i was shocked to see that lg did update the Optimus black.
but yet no other lg phone has JB so we will see. they are slow with updates lg. but they do give it but they take there time.
first one will be the 4x hd. and then the rest.
i have the lg optimus 2x (crappy phone it is) so i think i will get the LG l9 p760 (i live in french) saw on gsmarena it has good battery life so thats great. (still no fan of lg but for this price i will that the risque)

The s1 started with éclair while the Optimus black started with froyo. That means if the s1 got ics it would of been upgraded 3 times. They would have paid 3 times for coders to port the newest os over to that device. They would also have to wait for the carrier to update their apps for the new os. Then they would need to beta test it. Then work on it some more. It's expensive and to do it 3 times makes it not worth it. Especially since no one is buying the s1 anymore let alone selling it.

Not True! Please be careful when you say that. Such information can make people hate you (as guessed by you)
P765 (Asian and India version) is not carrier specific. Its released in Open Market in India. No Indian Carrier even knows about this variant as yet. LG India directly released this from their own marketing chain. Its listed on website independently without any carrier tie-up.

Well said! I second that. I have experience with LG Reps regarding Optimus 2x for last 2 years and some of devs conversed with them too and some of us have great (lolz) experience with these so called reps of LG. Lolz. It seems they only try to pacify the DESPERATE customers with this kind of information. We waited whole 10 months more for ICS for O2X which they released in DEC 12 which was scheduled in First quarter of '12.
Is there anyone here, who can give confirmation, that they have given any specific DATE of next update or os release?
Their typical words are, "We do not have the exact update schedule but you will get update sooner". Now the word "sooner" is still to be investigated properly.
But shouldnt the updates now be faster that Google teamed up with LG to create the Nexus 4 ? Nexus gets updates before everyone.

so ther is a slight chance they are realy working for our JB. L9 is the top model of L series powerful enough to handle JB.

@rebar71 That's pretty goodnews, but I also think they will deliver it since even their low end devices are getting the G3 UI and the G2 didnt reached the 18 months yet so there should be an update remaining. It would be even better if LG would give an unlock tool then the G3 UI update will get released. If the UI gets simplified so must be the bootloader just simplify it and allow bootloader unlock :good:
Is there really a need to open a new thread everytime someone finds this on the web?

I like CM a lot as well. I ran it and its variants on my last phone. But on this device, I haven't use it yet because I've decided that I like having everything work. No disrespect meant to the CM team and other AOSP devs. You can only do so much without OEM drivers. And they do a fantastic job with what they have.
If the Nexus 5 had been more competitive in a couple of key areas, I would've bought that phone instead.
Sent from my LG-D801
the only thing i dont like about the AOSP is the camera. I've tried different camera apps and none of them was comparable with the stock one(xcam). The AOSP based roms would otherwise be perfect for me.
I use the play store Google camera, now HDR works it's brilliant, I don't really miss the lg camera as it's a pain to have to keep switching modes for different situations, I much prefer the lg g3 camera though as it's flat, quick and one setting does all.

Really? It has to do with getting the G3 UI and having everything working as it should. I thought I made that clear already. Considering that pretty much all custom ROMs are built around the D802 variant, the rest of us invariably have stuff that doesn't work with those ROMs. Some of those things are important to some of us.
getting a new ui doesn't get you new apps and stability... it's just the looks of the user interface and i doubt that has anything to do with system apps update... (although, it would be nice to see an update to this as well)
it's just like you change the theme in the rom that supports themes...
what i see here is that LG will update the UI only - if we get both UI update and new android version, that would be nice though

You can have the G3 UI with G2 "everything working as it should" stuff with Xposed and G2 Tweaksbox.

How?
The thing is, while we might get the UI look, I'm sure as hell we won't get split sceen, hide front touch buttons and other cool stuff. That's LG, folks - and it's somewhat understandable since they want your money.
that's why ported g3 roms exist... with a bit of help from xposed here and there

Xposed modules take care of the tweaks I need. Hell, I would think you guys would be stoked about this. With the OEM delivering it, you wouldn't need to use a ported hack - and everything would work. We wouldn't need a semi-stable port. Maybe they throw in the split screen, maybe they don't. Who cares. It's just software. You can add it later just like we do now.
I seriously don't understand the hate on display here. If I was an LG rep and came across this thread, I might be inclined to say, "screw those guys. I guess they don't want it." But the fact that a lot of you are running the G3 port says you do want it.

no hate, but knowing LG so far, we'll likely get just an UI update while Android L will remain for their newer devices only...
sure, developers will do their best to port L to G2... but official LG Android L - i doubt...
i hope i'm wrong and LG surprises us all for the 1st time
#RIPNexus ?? No more updates from Google??

Yeah. Security updates till November, Official updates are no longer given out to the 6p.
Time to get a new phone. May I suggest LG V30 found it to be pretty close in size. Performance is great as well as battery. The only issue one might have is the LG UI but it's not that bad.

I tried a G6 and their UI is kinda meh also a ton of bloatware. I'm going for Android one and gravitating towards a Nokia 7+. Android one comes close to the Nexus experience.

Always unlocked bootloaders,but i don't like it when i first have to remove bloatware and fiddle around to get the stock UI running. There are always seem to be some minute differences to stock
That's old news bro.
And secondly this is a Nexus phone.
It will never stop getting updates the difference is you will have to update it by yourself.
