I am still waiting for update for my Optimus 3D max. LG is focusing only on newly launched devices and loosing trust of their old customers.

I got rid of my LG Thrill and bought a GS III. Best decision I've made regarding phone purchases ever.

What phone company actually supports their products for more than one phone generation?

So far, Google's Nexus branding and that's about it. Samsung kept their word and continued to update the Galaxy S with that package.. Aside from that not many lol.

I understand where you are coming from with the CM stuff... Put CM 7.2 on my LG Optimus V which tremendously expanded its functionality... However, most phones that most people have that need the updates have too small of a following to actually get support from the CM community... I don't think I am going out too far on a limb, but even the most popular phone currently for metroPCS, the LG Motion 4G, will never get support from the CM community, unlike Virgin Mobile's Optimus V, which was, because of the high quality of the phone and high value of the plan, was a tremendously popular, commonly had phone...

LG update phones? LOL people should no better and research before they buy. LG is the worst offender on the market for providing updates to their phones.

I disagree. LG has updated my Motion 4G 3 times since I have owned it, 5 times overall. All that updating in only a few months since I got the phone.

TBH, Samsung is probably the worst big brand about updating. They refuse to update phones unless they are their flagship products. Goodness forbid if you bought a mid or low tier product that desperately needs an update, even when brand new...
