first let us have an official ics build !
we'll think of jb later !
Other than a very small handful of new features and optimizations, it probably wouldnt take much to get Jellybean on the Nitro HD. This isnt a huge jump like it was from android 2.1 (eclair) to 2.2 (froyo).
i also hope for jellybean. after watching the I/O and being on 2.3.5 i see a lot of great features i would want.
offtopic, but is google glass just a camera with connectivity or did i miss something? it looked sick when they were skydiving though
Honestly, at the rate that LG is moving, I wouldn't be surprised at all to see them skip ICS officially altogether. Kind of like Sony Ericsson did with going from eclair straight to gingerbread. It would make more sense, since they have put the effort into getting ICS close, why not just do the little extra and jump straight into jelly bean?

i remember reading somewhere that it would be getting ics late this summer...if it's going to take that long for them to finish it, i don't want to know how long it would take if they skipped it lol
lets just hope that LG keeps supporting this phone, even after jellybean; it's a really good phone (other than the battery life on stock 2.3.5...)
Yeah battery life on the stock gingerbread is rather sad. CM9 battery life is actually quite good now that im a couple days in.

yea, i sent my phone in and they put V11a on it....i'm actually getting a full day out of it (moderate usage, two short calls, camera app for .5 hour, texting a bit, had GPS on, "smart screen on"...etc) so i think they may have fixed the battery issues on 2.3.5....i'm hopefully going to root and put CM on it tuesday though...
this is going offtopic, lets start talking about Jellybean again?

Looks like ATT is delaying ICS, its not LG 2 blame, cause LG is already released offical ICS for SU640

I should rephrase that...
i hope lg will give us ICS (seems like they have), JB (really hopeful on this), and any other firmwares that get released after those two...
it's sad that they have to delay it though...
I'm tryed but we need help with unpack/change and repack CM9 boot.img. If someone can make this work, may be it's boot, now it's not bootable.
Thanks for the update. Im not sure what I can do as I am not good with that stuff but maybe someone like Hono could help?
I all ready talk to andasa about that.
You all should know that source for 4.1 will be out mid july . Right now you waste time on a sdk release that will do unusable rom.

hey andasa buddy !
could you please port aokp from the latest sources to the nitro !
would love to see a latest aokp port !
Just checked the development forums and they are basically empty.
Is it just that the phone is new? Or has there been no way to root it yet? I'm thinking of getting this phone but I'd like to know if I'll have the option of rooting/loading a custom ROM.
One last question - is this phone any different then the nexus? it seems to have the same hardware other then a better camera and have LTE.
Thanks
Nexus 4 is optimus G with no amplifiers/filters for LTE, less storage, different camera, wireless charger, RGB led.
No roms cause thats the international version section, its still kinda rare and the boot still locked.

I'm in Canada so I'm not entirely sure, but if Sprint is like any other carrier they will push an update to 4.2 loooooonnnnnggggg after the devs here have cooked about a dozen customs Rom's for it. They are working on AOSP now. Shouldn't be too long.

From the looks of it, there are a few devs that have this device (judging from the "root-testing" discussion). I'm sure that it won't be too long before we see some work. Still a relatively new device here in the US.
I'm getting my hands on it tonight, so I'll give her a looksie. If I can do something with what I find, then I will. It's my first LG (primary body of work on Moto devices), so it might be slow...

Thx. Stock is working for me just fine, but I know the damn power button is gonna die soon and I wanna get an app that uses the screen to turn the phone on. I have a proximity app now but it's poor and doesn't work that well as it turns the phone on when I don't want and a lot of the time it doesn't work.
Seriously try purity rom. And give ak kernel a try.

Wrong thread.
Bad question to ask.
Why? It can cause arguments, each phone works differently despite the general consensus, people are biased towards their favorite ROM (which can cause arguments), and you can only, truly know through personal experience with each ROM.
Thread reported.
Have a nice night.

You can user pgm nexus on stock. Flashing a custom ROM has nothing to do with using an app to turn the screen on. I used pgm on stock rooted for about a month.

Alternate method to enter recovery?
Does anyone know of a way to enter recovery other than with using the power button? Is there a way to do it through ODIN?
I installed ICS Stock ROM, but I need to be able to enter recovery to do a factory reset.
My power button is broken. I can get into download mode (pressing volume up, volume down, and then inserting usb cable).
If the phone is off, I can also get the phone to power on (by inserting power cord, feeling vibrate, and then quickly removing power cord).
But I can't get into recovery. If anyone has any creative methods, that'd be awesome!
I'm saying goodbye, as well.
After installing ROM after ROM, I never found any that "just worked". Anything 4.4-based had all kinds of busted stuff (1080p video, Netflix, etc). 4.3 had camera/gallery issues. Even with 4.1 and 4.2 (including 4.1 stock), they still seem to suffer from "vbus_present" issues forcing me to reboot any time I unplug the device.
The device froze up on me and corrupted too many photos. I tried asking the community what the "best" ROM was, and mods closed the thread.
I wanted the T989 as a tool. Not something I had to babysit.
Maybe I'll get a Moto G or whatever Motorola's new phone is.

The way I see it....ROMs made of 4.2.2 and higher may have their odd glitches... But that just life bringing android versions to phones who's official support ended. Its either accept the odd problem, or stick with last official update. In this case touch wiz 4.1.2. Which is pretty much perfect.
Flashing custom ROMs comes with the odd glitch, no matter the phone. That's just how it is.
Stock is for those that can't accept the odd issue.
Good luck with your next phone!! The moto g is nice, for its price for sure!!!

A point I should have made.....the devs work hard and for free and for fun....and share with us lucky members.
They do their best with what they have to work with....especially on android versions not even created for our device.
They deserve our respect and thanks. If what's available disappoints anyone....they should keep it to themselves or choose their words wisely.
Without the devs.... We'd have nothing at all. Especially when Google stops giving us official updates.
Be grateful.
Still loving my Herc. Carbon rom with SaberMod Uber kernel and I have no complaints...

Current T989 kitkat bugs piss me off, lol. They seem to be putting finishing touches on it, then all of a sudden they make a bigger change that opens a whole new can of worms.
My power button got stuck several months ago, so I actually opened the phone up and removed the entire thing. To turn my phone on, I plug it in with a usb chord and hold volume up/down until I enter download mode, then I cancel it.
I use an app called Quick Boot to reboot, enter recovery and so on.
Also, I kind of agree with you guys. Sure, the latest 4.4 ROMs are a little buggy, but I've found 4.3 roms to be perfect, in terms of stability.
Got my T989 last november from a friend, second android device I had but the first to get serious with. Also tried to check for newer devices like that LG G2 but the chance for me to get a new one is far less than you can do.

I lucked out. I complained enough to tmobile about the screen blobs and lines from the amoled displays that they kept sending me as refurbs, wrote the CEO an email, then they called and agreed to send me a GS3 LTE, and let me keep my s2, so I immediately sold both phones and got the g2 new.
