No racism included, but to me, it sounds kinda like a Asian accent.
I read somewhere that they say VM doesn't do OTA updates?

From the comments:
"I have the update. Believe me, you don’t want it. My husband and I both downloaded the update to our LG Optimus S phones and since then our phones have not acted right. My phone’s earpiece partially blasts through the speaker, Pandora and Amazon MP3 crash constantly, I have had several times where I cannot make a phone call, SD cars randomly unmounts, pictures no longer fit right on the wallpaper, etc. Those are the problems I can think of right now. I spend more time taking out the battery and restarting the phone than I do actually having full use of the phone and all my services."
That just about sums everything up right there...

Just because custom roms offer tons of stuff, doesn't always make it better. Tbh, I actually prefer stock, other than MIUI.

Not for the OV at least. I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that it's broken either in the stock software or on VM's end.

Right, I said stock. BumbleBee is a stock based ROM. Harmonia is a stock based ROM.
What makes them fast? They are based on stock. You can't beat it for a base.
I never said perfect, but it would be alot better. You think the few here can whip up better code than LG? Pardon me while I hold my sides.
Yeah, I know how development goes. Thanks for the ye olde memories.
Secondly, I have played with the Optimus S release, and its miles better than IHO with the phone I used. Yes, the upgrade path was spotty, but the phone I had worked 100% and I was blown away at how zippy and great it performed. It was then I downgraded from IHO back to Froyo. Latest and greatest isn't worth it when the phone runs like a G1 on GingerBread at first use.
Thirdly, no one was debating if ROMs would improve with an LG GB release. The topic I brought up was, are the current set of IHO ROMs better than what LG would provide? The answer is no, they aren't.
I've helped to dev for the G1, Nexus One, G2, Galaxy S. You have... well... I don't know exactly.
I don't feed off thanks like some other people here. ;}
You obviously did not have the same experience that I have with IHO. At stock life was a pain. Fruit Ninja would take 2 minutes to load and then the lag made it unplayable. So, I did what any techie would do and put Harmonia 2 on there.
Instant improvement. Things loaded quickly, apps didn't lag, and life was good.
Also if you were wondering what I have done. I haven't done any custom roms yet but I have developed multiple apps for Android, iOS, and blackberry Playbook. I also have done many professional websites for multiple businesses.
Well I'm done arguing this. We both will obviously stay on the side we believe is the correct one. And we both know that the Gingerbread update is most likely mot going to happen anyway. So this is a useless argument.

I think many have forgotten how bad stock on the OV really is.
Maybe. I hung around BiffMod crew mostly. Probably not, since I never use the same username in two places...
I think a new release would be good. If the source code is an actual upgrade from the original, then the great devs working on Backside & other roms will have new material to work with. Like adding fresh DNA to an old gene pool. Custom roms would only benefit. Before anyone downloads ANYTHING in their phone they should research it first. That being said..making that choich to hit the download button is really up to the user. I love all the improved function that Backside has added to my phone. For me, froyo was the worst! It was my choice and it's my phone. I'm glad to have choices and if fresh material would help the research along..GREAT!
Eh probably not then. I joined in right around the release of cm6.1. Biffmod didn't seem too alive..
The V's time is not passed i hope, Take a step back to peer at the bigger picture, sure new phones with huge screens and 4 processors and TV running technology are cool, but not cheap at all. The V fills its niche in the market with being very affordable to produce and acquire ( got mine $50 brand new black friday). the ArmV6 might be somewhat limited but we need to be ever vigilante in software upgrades(look how far we've come! woot woot shout out to all the devs and testers!!!!). I personally cant wait to get a raspberrypi and start fooling around with its Arm.
Moral of the story: not very many people have the extra money to get a six hundred dollar phone for $100 a month, and as long as the never ending "recession" from 2008 (we are living in a real global depression) continues, there will be a spot for affordable no contract phones with fair performance
