Maybe I'm not looking in the right places but I'd think it'd be on the LG site somewhere

Nothing in those 2 links about the Optimus V being upgraded by VM.

**jawz101** · 05-19-2011, 05:43 PM

essentially it's not going to happen. the LG link mentions the Optimus One which doesn't necessarily imply the Optimus V.

looks like from LG's forums the more accurate answer is no. The LGP500 is the international version and not supplied in the US

after looking on the LG Open source site the LGP500 source code releases are newer than the LGVM670

My Optimus V is running Gingerbread I guess you did not get the update.

yea... look what happened with the intercept and it's update that VM released to it. Blocked ALL the good stuff. If there's an update headed for my optimus, BIG DECLINE!

Question...what would the odds be that VM would disable the hotspot wifi feature on stock phones? Iam considering rooting my Optimus V, I miss the days of tinkering with my OG Droid using CM6

I trust LG's Global Communications Director to be better informed than one of LG's forum moderators.

Here's everything I've found regarding a possible update for the Optimus V:
