No ZTE Blade in Europe has an official Froyo running but I read that the Greek users should get an update in 2011.
Both phones seem quite similar. The LG P500 has a slightly better battery and resolution.
So what are your priorities?
I bought the zte blade because it has more dev support than the lg p500 and because of its higher resolution 480x800. the battery doesn't last for more than a day since that play a lot with it
LG P500 seems to be a good android 2.2 phone
I'm for ZTE because of it's graphic accelerator (Adreno 200, actually don't know what it means, but seems better than nothing). And it's running cyanogen that a far more great advantage.

Sadly now the LG optimus 2x has gotten official MIUI support and it's said to be out to the Optimus in about 2 weeks. While they get official support we need to stick with our ported version . (No offence Bmarko).
Anyway, good day to you sir!
Lmao at this thread.
Sell your sgsii and get an optimus 2x. Problem solved.

At first when moto produced defy in India, the system is android 2.1, with bl3, this version is not so much but it exists indeed.
guys don't you think that Moto defy can be great on Gingerbread and higher
The Defy was released with Eclair because they went after the profit: Motorola promised one system update and delivered it - FroYo, but buggy and unstable. Then they released the Defy+ (with a slightly bigger battery and an overclocked CPU) but with Gingerbread, thinking it would be enough to convince the majority of the users that it was worth it to buy the "new" model.
It's probably the same tactic as the one used by Intel: tick-tock (but at Intel they at can justify it by hardware limitations).
"Tick" means a big step ahead, new hardware, new features. "Tock" contains some improvements and tweaks, not a real reason to update. Defy was the tick and Defy+ was the tock.
Probably the 3rd gen Defy will be a tick and a real reason to upgrade .

I might buy this phone but the company is not famous in my country so was skeptical about it. Just want your reviews guys and its pro's and con's.. Is there any scope of having cm7,9,10 on this phone and is the phone "sources" friendly?
THANKS!
I'm sorry, but you have to be more specific, because there are several models of this phone:
Huawei Ideos X5, or the U8800
Huawei Ideos X5 Pro, or the U8800Pro
U8800-51, which in turn is also called "Impulse 4G"
All in all, you'd be foolish to purchase the original version, which I own, aka. the regular Ideos X5 (U8800). The phone was, for its price, rather excellent, but it is quite outdated at this point. You may want to consider the pro model if it's in your price range as it has official Android ICS, but I'd suggest you to look into Sony Xperia U. This phone was denied official JB, but it still officially has ICS at a low price point with a nice developer base. Don't take my word for this, as I don't actually own this device, though.
Note: The regular version, U8800 has a stable ICS ROM as well, built by dzo. As Huawei abandoned us on 2,2 Froyo with an unfinished 2,3 Gingerbread beta, we are all grateful for dzo for his efforts. (Among other developers)

Sorry for being not precise. I am thinking about buying the pro version and its about 200$ in my country INR 10000. It seems very gud phone on net and for very cheap! I think it got ICS official and has cm10 in development phase.

I will wait and see which phone gets the best development till the new year. I will start my dev work as soon as I get my phone. Is the bootloader unlocked in this phone? Any way to recover a hard brick on this phone? Something like USB jig for samsung phone?
If you are seeking phon with good support then check my signature.

It's good enough for daily usage and we've struck lucky with some very dedicated developers (like dzo), but from what I've gathered so far this phone is a nightmare to develop for. You sometimes get the feeling that Huawei has been rummaging around in the wheely bin outside the factory, looking for parts to put in there. Even for the exact same model, there seem to be several hardware revisions.
If you can get it, the Ascend G300 and G330 are much better options. Better built and the G330 might get official Jelly Bean if Huawei continues with one update per phone (X5 got GB, Honour and G300 got ICS).

Yeah, it's only been available for 3 months. I'd be surprised if it didn't get that kind of attention. It's very good value for money and should sell well.
hi guys i came from LG Optimus 2x section and as LG user i have a question in my mind that bother me to consider LG G2 as one of my choice, as some of you that doesn't know LG Optimus 2x only receive 2 updates in its era, in ICS we wait for almost 1 year to get it, as i understand its looks like 90% NVIDIAs fault because of its apple like rules, so LG Optimus 2x is dropped by LG and never look at it again
so my concern is, is LG will going to update/support LG G2 for at least 2 to 3 years and provide its sources, because it is Qualcomm i know its open source but its up to LG if they will release it. Are they provide on-time update or it will end up like LG Optimus 2x and other 2011 LG units?
my very concern is the update and sources needed by the developers
i know LG G2 is a superb phone and it is a phone that is complete package, another concern about camera shutter lag is it software that can be fix or hardware that cannot be fix?

The LG sources have been out for well over a month now, this isnt an issue, where the issue is is that there are several variants, off the top of my head I believe there are 7. 7! So yeah development is fragmented because of this. Also there are 3 camera Mods that take care of any issues you will have with the stock camera app. Theres not much else to say here. Everything else is subjective and opinion till we find out more.

Hopefully they learn from the Nexus about updates, nevertheless we have a solid Dev community to assist us if LG wants to abandon us, but its way too early to make those kind of judgements, we shall wait and see
Korean news; A Korean consumers' group criticized a recent LG's decision of abandoning Nougat update for G4 and V10. LG's reason being is; Because of the aging device's stability and reliability, LG decided not to offer Android 7.0/7.1 update.

That isn't official. Official is from LG directly.
This is so far away from official like seeing flying pigs.. Could be true or not.

Just think about it. Do you really think that LG will say officaly: "NO NOUGAT UPDATE FOR OUR 1.5 YEARS OLD PHONE". It would be a really good advertisement for them! Lets be critical. It's the same like if they said: Buy our current flagship - G6 and you will get terrible support, bad build quality, bootloop problem after a year, you will loose all your date when we change phones motherboard, you will wait many days and finally you will probably stuck on 7.1.1 forever. It's almost on 100% that LG G4 won't get Nougat update. All what they need is to sell new models. That is what keeps them alive. Building a new system for almost 2 years old phone is nonsense, it is, it cost money. We need to earn money, not spend money. If you want Nougat, buy LG G5 or get G6. Thats it. But many people will buy from another phone manofacturer next time after this. LG is digging it's own grave for a long time.
We barely started March dude... If you had any Asus you'd see what's slow. Just wait and if they don't deliver too bad. The phone is not that bad as it is since it's a terrible chip
Wow LG seems like they really don't like the G4 considering they are leaving it on the same Android version as it's predecessor G3. I bought this phone as a budget alternative to buying the galaxy A5 2016 .... At least the LG G4 has good custom ROM support so I'll just install lineage os if LG really decides to ditch this phone. But I'm still disappointed to see this phone only get one update in its lifetime.
Edit : *only one major update
Also: even comparing LG to other companies like Sony... Their whole z5 series including z5, premium and compact just got the 7.0 update

Until it's not from official LG sources, readable on their homepage or blog, i would say it's not official. It's just guessing...
Official??? you are crazy
https://support.t-mobile.com/community/phones-tablets-devices/software-updates#tmoSUPDocTitle
LG V10 is already confirmed by T-mobile.
About the LG G4, no official info ... do not believe in support that often does not have communication with the development team

So you're going to trust a carrier over the manufacturer?
The official line seems to be that the Nougat update for the G4 and V10 was abandoned as it wasn't stable enough for release. If you choose to believe any other source then I'm afraid you're set to be disappointed.
It's time to move on.
i imagine this on a balance.. one side how much they would spent on 7.0 development vs the other people moving away from LG.
what a re you toughts do they loose more money at developing a g4 that should be able to handle 7.0 asn the nexus 5x has nougat.
or all the people that will get angry and dissapointed. as we still in the 2 year update cycle.??
Let's make dozens of topics with the same posts. It is not over until the fat lady sings. Let's suffocate this topic, LG deserves it. Wait, only users that actually look for useful information will find it difficult with all these topics. Just my 2 (euro) cents.

I`m so sick of LG`s ****:
My LG G2 display not responding so I got LG G4 instead of buying a new display for LG G2
My LG G4 problems:
1. the BOOTLOOP
2. display burn in (ghosting)
3. battery after 10% phone dies
4. mobile data on and no signal = phone goes crazy touches all over the screen
5. the plastic back falls
6. and now no update for Nougat? wtf. LG?
The LG G6? I love it but after my history whit LG i`m so so so disappointed
sorry for the unorthodox words....
I must say I don't care much about 7.0/7.1. The g4 is working perfectly for me. What killer features would 7 bring? The upgrade to 6 did not bring many noticable improvements imho.

its not our fault they f*** with bootloops. and it still in update cycle. and lame excuse about not beign optimized.. my nuts.
Shall we make a petition??? I dont know will it work or not.
The same thing also happened with my previous phone Xperia SP where they promised kitkat update but later abandoned it. So we (Xperia SP members) filled a petition but unfortunately I didnt change anything.
it looks like a prank to me. Of course you will all bite.
a new xda member just made his 1st post and its about lg never update to nougat ? lmao....
i could do the same anytime just as a prank. pranks exist because people that like pranks exist.
i had too much fun reading it
+1 to the guy that had the idea !
