Delay, delay, delay!!! I really don't think there's a reason for that. They just DO NOT want to release it.

Hmm, as much as i dislike LG in regards to their software(the hardware is solid) i would like to point out that this isnt true? Apparently lg say EU is on its way for Q2... https://www.facebook.com/LG/posts/451070321575157
So please, can we save the hate till after q2? Then we can slap them in the face :P. iirc LG increased its OS staff by double or 10 fold late last year so you would expect it to be bringing some tangible improvements, i.e. a faster ROM launch and most of all... a decent one!.

I wrote back in April to LG customer support and they've said that the ICS update will be "in the 2nd part of the year".
the news don't surprise me at all, but considering that I'm not really attracted by any of the current mobile devides, I'll keep the 2x until A15 quads are released.

Hawkstar., 11 May 2012Oh well, I'd expect the majority of 2x users not to be both... moreHad Optimus 2X , by circimstance bought an Xperia Mini and it was faster than O2X . . . except in games , but that is due to ULP GForce GPU . O2X is not a bad product , but there are better for the money (even if they are single core )

i really dont get why LG keeps on breaking their promise. i have a P500 right now, and im was planning to buy either 2X or Black, but because of their ever changing update schedules, im thinking twice on buying the said phones. :| Im planning on buying a SE now because their phones are going to have an ICS update really soon and they stick to their schedules. But i really like the designs and feel of 2X and Black... tsk.. :|

Gsmarena please don't show interest to them again, even unknown Asian brands offer the latest android versions. They got their market raise backstab with optimus and selled many 2xs though specs and guinness records. 2X'S current android is really problematic with no HW acceleration and with no SoC drivers release for the developers as they promised and we can't have even a normal ICS rom by the devs. LG is the worst unreliable mobile maker so please don't post any more threads about them and let them deceive customers like me as they did with 2x and descrace the mobile tech evolution. Thank you.

LG you are always delayed updating your devices, your customer waiting and waiting so very long, and take note you cannot fixed the bugs of your devices, you don't care about sofware issue, your devices is good but you need to learned how to fixed bugs of your devices,
Sorry but after sale, LG customer Service they don't know how to fixed the problem,sofware issues etc...
LG Pleased make a team work for doing a good sofware and how to fixed it,

Not too surprised. We all did wait for the GB update after all the mobiles where running it.!! My disappointment is that the phone is really good. Even though its been more than a year since it got launched it can still compete with the top mobiles in some ways. If LG roll out the updates on time as the other companies then ppl will prefer LG and in that way the market share can gradually increase. I hope at some point they realise this and start performing.!!

I'm still hoping they don't postpone the update to Optimus Black.

I really think LG has to get better software engineers or better yet just install stock ICS without customization. Majority really never uses the stock LG home launcher anyway, we just put ADW or GO Launcher. The Optimus 2x is a great phone hardware wise, it's just their customer support or software people are either undermanned or not very good at making ROMS.

I never buy LG phones. Bad after sale support and bad battery life. You're better off buying China-made phones.

Oh well, I'd expect the majority of 2x users not to be bothered too much by this & will be patient enough to wait for it when it comes.
I'm personally happy with my 2x running Gingerbread, smooth & speedy, don't really see why so many are impatient for updates to their phones, it's not like there is so going to be overly much changing from GB to ICS.
