Hey Guys,

 

Just picked up a new phone and also my first Android phone. I'm wondering how to update the OS to a newer one, the current one is 2.3.6 Gingerbread or something.

DESKTOP - Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-Z77X-D3H Processor - Intel Core i5-2500K @ Stock 1.135v Cooling - Cooler Master Hyper TX3 RAM - Kingston Hyper-X Fury White 4x4GB DDR3-1866 Graphics Card - MSI GeForce GTX 780 Lightning PSU - Seasonic M12II EVO Edition 850w  HDD -  WD Caviar  Blue 500GB (Boot Drive)  /  WD Scorpio Black 750GB (Games Storage) / WD Green 2TB (Main Storage) Case - Cooler Master 335U Elite OS - Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate

LG probably doesn't support that phone with the latest OS version.

I just got rid of one of those lol. It's actually a good phone. Surprisingly fast actually, since it only has a QVGA screen to power. The one I got wasn't with the carrier I use so I just used it as a media player and on Airplane mode damn that thing lasted a week and a half of daily usage on a charge.

 

What I did with mine was update it to 4.0.4 by installing CyanogenMod 9. Then overclocked it to 1GHz and did the SD merge so that I got 1GB of storage space to install apps rather then the 150MB or so that they give you normally.

There's really nothing wrong with Gingerbread though. It runs really quick on that phone.
