Someone said that 4.2 would come.
LG Sweden said news about updates for G comes later.
I think we´ll at least see some for of upgrade to match Pro and considering this is the top model international I highly believe we will see 4.2 sometime.
LG for sure will not update to 4.2, my guess is that eventually will update directly to 5.0.
If the Optimus 2X story will be repeated (1 year waiting for ICS update) with E975 too, I'll jump on the CM boat.
You are pretty optimistic man.
LG promised both international version and JB update before 2013, the time for an another time demonstrated how LG deals with promises lol
no..?
We'll have 4.2.
Omg,don't talk about KLP,it will be launched in late october,at the android bbq. I said it before, at least orange romania already approved the 4.2 and gave it green light.orange has exclusive rights for e975 here.
On the other hand,devs be prepared ...we'll have 4.3 on the way,not from LG,but from google.

To bring this topic back alive, LGNordic posted on twitter that info about 4.2 "comes in some weeks, probably next" this was on the 24th. So with some luck we´ll hear something this week

Do you mean this:
"Jelly Bean uppdatering: Optimus 4X, Optimus L5, Optimus L7 och Optimus L9. Ice Cream Sandwich finns till Optimus 3D. Görs via USB."
G already has JB (4.1 is JB as well in case you didn't know).

Actually nothing special, according to the rumors it is just a Defy with a sligthy better cpu... maybe "better" is not the right term, same cortex A8 but not underclocked as our Defy's cpu is. It should be 3620... should be.
Camera, display, graphic chip, and all the rest (except for the battery pack) won't change.
Hopefully they will release it unlocked bootloader, which hopefully will work on our devices too

I dont think so... I have to see it first... and then i will believe it...
The leaked gingerbread rom was for the Defy+ and it works well on the normal Defy. So why not?
So no big changes huh? Im already OC'd. I was hoping for a front facing camera and a mini solar panel battery door.Oh well,my MB525 is still the ish..
Phone looks nice, but why is this in development?...

The motorola milestone 2 rom works with the defy too and you can use some apps from atrix, but bootloader is different... So i cant say if its good if we get a defy+ rom... And i think that motorola will make an effort to change the bootloader unlocking method to persuade you to buy a new DEFY+ instead of continue with your actual defy.

well, ms2 have a different signature, we can't use their kernel for that reason. defy has been (de facto) discontinued for a few months now, they stopped shipping it since some time around early june.
finally something is official
ok so defy + , is conformed ..

Lol what a rip off . They didn't even bother to change at least one or 2 things on it's exterior. I think it's kernel will work smooth as butter on our ordinary Defy . Still I'm happy they got owned by Google
im stuck w/ this defy..im sure someone in our defy camp will be eager to port & mod the defy+ rom then port it to our defys....if not then i dont care...
ill just wait for the nexus3, rumors it will be w/ moto?

such a bad thing moto release two type of hardware within the same device name (MB525)..
i just bought a defy a week ago. but its ok.. im fine with it.
mine has orange lens?? it doesnt look like a red lens..
Hello everyone, im coming from an xperia S, tomorrow i will receive a package with an lg optimus g inside, i just want to know if it worth the money, i'm very familiar with the hardware on it, and i really like that it is/was a beast regarding specs, Im from argentina, and here, this phone is recently arriving to some operators, i cought it in a good price and i bought it.
The issue i have with the xperia S is that the phone is very slow, but most important it has the bootloader locked, and cannot be unlocked by any way, so i can't install custom roms, or change kernels, that sort of things. I dont want this happens again with this phone, certainly, i should ask before buy the phone, but well.. here i am, what's the status of this phone about software updates (official and from unofficial developers), what do you think about LG and their update schedule? are you guys happy? or not?, i will be able to install custom roms, change kernels and those things with my carrier-sim-locked phone?
Thanks in advance!! i really love the xda community!! but im sad to say that every phone i bought was a fiasco, from an atrix (never got 4.0.4), then xperia S (i was running 4.0.4 without the ability to install custom roms, it just suck!!!! but few days ago i just received 4.1.2, with some bugs) i dont want the optimus G became another failure, and i dont like samsung smartphones, i just dont like it became so popular, that every guy with some money buy them and just use them with stock laggy firmware.
Well.... with no more to say, thank you all in advance, and a big welcome to myself to the comunity :silly:

Hi,
To cut the long story short I have come out with the idea of separate forum for Indian users so as to better understand the issues and also to have tight and easy context to our problems.
Withi a week of buying this phone, I had to visit service centre. It never happend with my any other previous phones. Obivoulsy this is becasuse of locked bootloader and stupid stone-age problmes in LG Flash tool like "low battery error"
Anyway, lets discuss all development and flashing related aspects of this version over here. Hope this benefits all.
FInally, Moderators may feel to redirect or route to alternatives, if any. Thank you.
Its a nice thought but Indian Optimus G pro users are already minority among the very limited user base of the Optimus G pro. I only wish more people knew about this amazing phone. For 27k INR its a steal nowadays.
For starters check out the stickies thread from the android development side. Its an amazing guide for the e988 based users. Helped me a lot.

Yes. I have disabled security before flashing recovery. I have flashed recovery through freegee app itself. After that the phone got into bootloop. After that I could not get it started. Tried flashing stock ROM through lg flashtool.but always got stuck due to low battery error. So finally went to service centre.

and cromaretail is selling the 32gb version for that price, i got the 16gb one at that price fom flipkart that too cashback i will get in jan.
And i guess price drop is because of being stuck in 4.1.2, while buyin most dont care for roms just the current stock version
Ordered it from croma today, the black one went out of stock so had to settle for the white one.
Upgrading from Lg Optimus 2x after using it for 2 years.
Man it's very tough to find G Pro in retail stores, searched em all in Koramangala/Forum side even the much Hyped Google/spice "AndroidLand Store" didnt have it , only univercell had it , no one else not even croma itself , Lg Phone's distribution n/w is real poor in India ,speaking from previous experience, if any storekeeper has LG you'll only find G pro lite or G2 ,
I ordered for 24,500 from croma retail , it's a loot considering the specs but i am pretty sure we wont see the Android update atleast for the next 6 months if at all , same thing happened with Optimus 2x but atleast Lg did provide it with Stable ICS some good months later. With not much of a difference b/w release dates of G,G pro ,G2 and Lg never calling G pro their Flagship , I seriously doubt any updates , but still those specs for that price is awesome.
I Flashed CM on my Optimus 2x the day i bought it , I hope this time around i use Stock a bit more
only thing from my wishlist that this phone didnt fulfill was Dual sim and LTE that would work in India but then no expensive phone had dual sim and No one knows India's LTE bands with sureity

Croma lists it as 4G lte and 32gb internal model, its diff from the indian model we have sen in general
Yesterday I went and got a Nexus 6. While I love the new phone, I will miss my old Optimus G Pro. This phone still has good hardware and has a lot of development left in it. Thanks to all the Dev. that work on this device. I had a lot of fun with it.

When you sell it please (if you can and its not a problem) report back how it goes - was it easy to sale etc.
I can never say my G Pro goodbye till it breath out it's final breath. Yeh, I got myself a new G Flex 2 three months ago, but I can't get rid with my G Pro, so i get another sim card (finding an excuse) to keep using my G Pro. And it doesn't make me disappointed yet.
I found cm-13 Source for our e980 mates! Look in my thread.
Ehm i'm selling it but it have too much problems.
since i can't find anything substantial about oreo on the g pad v500 i start wondering if there is development in progress.
Does anybody know if there are oreo-plans for our beloved g pad?
