    First you need to root, unlock bootloader, flash TWRP Recovery and CWM Touch Recovery, and you can do all that from only a program
    https://mega.co.nz/#!WMh2CAAZ!I506pk-GJJXFBan11dNgM3NDMMRyj6J6y7UAGINWG-o
    Download it and run, from that program do what i wrote.
    You need ADB drivers and on android 4.1.2
    After that, download http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps
    and download the latest file from:
    https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=p880

    After you have rooted, unlocked , flashed ,
    shut down your phone, and hold down volume down and power on button to start your phone on recovery mode, and after that clear all data, (back up your data) and install both of the files, IF you need more help you can find more informations from xda developers

          Very good phone. With android 4.1.2 i had some problems..

          It became much better after installing kit kat android from cyanogen...The phone is really fast now and everything works perfect and smooth. Everyone that has that phone should update to cyanogenMod android cm11...

          For information about the cm11 installation check at xda developers forum.

            I have had this phone for over a year now.

            The phone specs are perfect for any standard user. But I had some problems and wanted to ask about one thing, maybe someone could answer me.

            I am running on stock firmware since I bought the phone. I use the phone and it is perfect for me. When I installed lots of apps I found the phone a bit laggy. So I removed most of the unwanted apps and left only the apps I wanted and the phone is now perfect. Currently I have another problem, while the phone was locked it freezes. Even when I call my phone from another phone it does not show up anything at all while the phoning call shows that it is ringing. It freezes completely and the screen does not light up anymore until I remove the battery and put it on again then switch on the.phone

                The ony way to run 4.4 is custom roms and they almost NEVER make your Phone better and certainly dont make your battery last longer if you manage it correctly on the suggested best v10h rom.

                  Snoopy_LGP880, 14 Sep 2014HI, I have LG Optimus 4X HD, and I would like to upgrade... moreHey Snoopy... You can certainly upgrade the software to Android KitKat, by installing Cyanogenmod's ROM.

                  http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/P880_Info

                  There is no release candidate for the CM11, the Nightly is fine, since the developers are constantly upgrading the software.

                  I have a Galaxy S2 (from 2011) with CM11 (Android 4.4.4) on it. Installing is very easy IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

                  If you don't know what you're doing, then REFRAIN from doing the installation, since you can "brick" your phone and make it completely unusable.

                  Make a wise decision! ;)

                    HI,

                    I have LG Optimus 4X HD, and I would like to upgrade the software to KitKat, because with the current software the phone could not worked very well. for instance, getting very slow, during phoning the other partner could not hear anything, and so on.
                    So could anyone to help me, that how I can upgrade it if it is possible?
                    Thank you,

                    Regards,
                    Snoopy_LGP880

                      My whole point was that they mislead you by saying you can expend your memory whil this is only partly true as you can only use it for a part of your data not all data which they make you beleave.

                      Its more like additional memory for x purpose rather then expanding memory in general.

                      You say: memory also referes to storage space for music, photos, movies and so on.

                      Its not also its actualy the ONLY purpose.

                      Its like saying you can expand a 4 seat car with more seats by placing items in the trunk. Which gives the car a bigger space but not usable to place people so therefore its still a 4 seat car with storage space for other things.
                      Its misleading but hopefullt they will bring back this feature in all phones as clearly if you make a effort as a def its possible.

                          Phones that were upgraded from 2.2/2.3 to 4.x van still do this because of the way the update is done.
                          If your Phone came with 4.0 or 4.1 its not possible.
                          Those phones generaly can just use the SD for music movies or photo storage nothing else (unless you attatch it to the pc ofcourse)


                          However there is light at the end of the tunnel.
                          I dropped my lg last week and bought a asus zenfone 6. with this Phone (android 4.3) the devs made a effort to once more move data to the SD so you get a fully working sd rather then just movies photo and music storage.

                            or get a extended battery but those are ugly and make the Phone incompattible with all protective covers.

                            And in realty even tho im satisfied wit the Phone the tegra3 was never supposed to go into phones and never should have bin considered. It was designed for tablets which have a much bigger battery.

                            however with tweaking a lot is possible. i managed to get the use down to 3% overnight by using 2g instead of 3g (messages will still come in) by shutting down 2 cores and clocking the other 2 cores down to 640 mhz.
                            the end result was 5 hour screen on time which for a Phone designed in 2011 and released in 2012 is quite inpressive.

                            Another thing you shouldnt do with this Phone is install firmware 4.1.2 its just a bad piece of software. v10H is the best rom for the 4x HD.

The fact is it is one of the worst phones I have ever known, as they say you get what you pay for, but actually this phone isn't even woth £10 never mind £150. It's unfortunate because since then LG have been churning out one brilliant phone after another, I will probably wait for the LG G4 as I'm waiting for the s810 chip.

                                        This phone is now total humiliation, the touchscreen doesn't even work now, it's total shit in every way. My 5 year old Nokia n900 is still working normally, those who are repeatedly backing this phone must be part of LG's PR stunt and being paid handsomely by them. I'm just waiting for the next generation of phablets with the QHD screens and either an s805 or s810 chips and this phone will finally disappear in the bin where it belongs, cannot wait.
