I have the sprint variant but its pretending its an at&t one by only letting me flash GEEB ROMs instead of the sprint ones. How the heck do I change this? Phone broke so I'm back to my optimus G and haven't messed with this phone in literally years. Forgot a lot.

No Ice Cream Sandwhich?
"Not all LG Android phones will get the upgrades. Noticeably absent from the list was AT&T's recently released LG Nitro HD, T-Mobile's LG G2X and the LG Thrill 4G."
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/tec...android-ice-cream-sandwich-upgrade-plans.html
It's going to happen with AT&T's blessing or not and from the looks of things from a recent Google+ post from a CM developer, sooner than Q2 of this year.
Just read the rest of the article:
However, these phones may yet get the Ice Cream Sandwich upgrade since they are rebranded versions of phones that are scheduled for updates. The Nitro HD is a rebranded version of the Optimus LTE, the G2X is a redubbed Optimus 2X, and the Thrill 4G is a renamed Optimus 3D.

But the LG optimus LTE on bell is being it. Why wouldn't the American version get it?

AT&T could drag their feet on it. It will get ICS, its really just a question of timing.
Couldnt find relevant thread but curious as to if nexus 4 has unadvertised LTE capabilities (atleast of canadian carriers), why isnt Optimus G pentaband like nexus 4. I guess answer can be as simple as different hardware but AFAIK they're based on same hardware, aren't they?
Simple...the Nexus 4 does not have LTE

Usually you cant boost all frequencies with only 1 amplifier.
And as i know, Nexus4 doesnt have one and has poor LTE reception.
The radio itself supports every wireless format (Gsm/wcdma/cdma/lte) as i know.
So its question of guaranteed quality i guess. And some royalties need to be payd

It has LTE in Canada.
My optimus G have LTE... optimus g L-01E
Same question on my mind actually.
With Wind Mobile up here in Canada. Uses the AWS frequencies like T-Mobile.
Would the AT&T Optimus G work if I plugged my sim in?
I recently purchased an ATT Lg Optimus G on ebay and had the sim unlocked. I am currently using it with my ATT plan without a data plan. Will I be charged for a data plan if i continue using it?

Here's an interesting report, a new LG model showed up at the FCC, the LS-980, first tri-band LTE phone with Sprint frequencies to be approved by the FCC, is this going to be a new LG Optimus G coming to Sprint?
Link: http://www.phonescoop.com/articles/article.php?a=12696
The FCC approved the LG LS-980. The phone supports all three frequency bands Sprint plans to use for LTE in the coming years. It's the first such phone to gain the FCC's approval, although the company Sprint currently uses the 1900 band (band 25) for LTE, but in the coming year will start deploying LTE in the 800 and 2500 bands the company acquired from Nextel and Clearwire, respectively. FCC documents show that the LG LS-980 also supports CDMA, as well as GSM and WCDMA for global roaming. NFC is also included. The FCC approved a potentially related VS-980 phone with Verizon frequency bands the day before.

A smartphone bearing the model number LG LS980 has just passed through the FCC, and it's a dead ringer for a G Pro destined for Big Yellow. Not only does its model number jive with the other carrier-specific incarnations of LG's device, but it packs support for Now Network-friendly CDMA and LTE over band 25, alongside the usual GSM radio. There's no telling when the Now Network will start offering the phone, but federal approval means it's clear to arrive when LG pleases.

I'm contemplating on purchasing this but I'm unsure of how well the development for this device will be. But for Triband it'll be AWESOME! We'll see what the specs are before I decide, though.
Yeah I will buy this device if there is enough development following. The weird thing is I feel that my lgog is better than any HTC phone I've ever had and its much better looking than anything out there. I absolutely hate the galaxy phones. Wish more people felt like me so we would have a bigger dev field. Thanks to those that do!

After purchasing this phone, I think I may stick to LG. I just read an article on flipbook that they are coming out with a G branded Tablet, Hub, and TVs. The G2 looks promising, and the phone above sounds promising. The article also stated that LG smartphones did very well this year, better than any other. IMO the G was the sleeper of 2012/13 thus far. After using this phone I'd def buy future G series phones.
If this does end up being the G2, it will be my next phone. My wife just upgraded to the Optimus G from an Optimus S and I am very impressed with her phone. I'm still rocking the OG EVO just waiting for a worthy upgrade that supported triband LTE. It looks like this phone will fit the bill!

Went from the LG Optimus S for 2 years then to the Galaxy Nexus for 2 months because I saw the new OG. Almost a year with my baby. If this truly is the G2 then this will be my next phone.
They say its the g pro not g2

I know you can take a sprint phone to boost, but can I do the reverse?

I am also wondering this as well.
