Running Gingerbread 2.3.5 now. Just played Angry Birds in 3D! You will need to make sure you update to SuperOneClick 2.2 if you want to root your device.
I would post proof or a link but this forum doesn't allow new users to do this.

I just got my Optimus 3D from Rogers last week, and it is still loaded with 2.2.2, and the LG Phone Software Update doesn't seem to include an OS update to 2.3.
yep , i had iphone before, wasnt an issue to get the firmware upgrades but iphone/apple is not enough evolving in contrast to android... but android dont have a specific brand for the hardware.... so it is quite long before every manufacturer makes its own firmware upgrade...... it works perfect with froyo so why spend money on a upgrade that gonna costs $$$
dont mistake here, we are not ripped off there, we choosed a cellular because we liked it.... getting free upgrades after a one time purchase is something we could call kindness from LG
Finally got the download and update to work (as far as I know the Rogers update is only available through 'LG Mobile Update' or 'LG PC Suite', not directly from the LG Canada or Rogers sites. Hopefully all the promised performance improvements bear out. Converting Angry Birds to 3d was cool.

Yeah, I've just got the upgrade too. I'm in Toronto using Rogers' network, and like what HabsRule93 said, I was able to download it from LG's US website. Link for anyone with the LG925G:
It looks good. A lot faster than Froyo for sure. My only problem is trying to get the video call feature to work. After all, that's why I went through the trouble to get the upgrade in the first place.

I got the upgrade through the LG PC Suite and have had nothing but problems since. network and other wireless issues, at one point i had 32 apps running in background and app killer did nothing.. the apps just keep opening on their own killing a full charge in 2hrs or less, and apps i have never even used. if there is a way, i would like to go back to 2.2.2 as there was no issues with apps running in background.
#optimus3d : Pretty sure that somewhere in the warnings at the start of the update there was a screen that cautioned that you can't roll back the OS to 2.2.
I have tried downloading it from lg pc suit and it said that my phone wasnt connected when it was. is there another way to update my phone.
There is no other way to update, but the first time I used LG PC Suite I ran into the same problem. Make sure that you have the 'mass storage' box unchecked in your settings, and then when you connect the USB cable, do not turn on USB storage. If you turn on USB storage, the computer recognizes the phone only as a USB drive, and the LG PC Suite won't recognize it as a phone.
who you with I have one on o2 no update yet its unlock so can try any sim
I am in exactly the same boat as you (O2 but with an unlocked/unbranded handset) - just update it yourself manually... I am running GB v21D and it is much better.
