seen this while searching around, does anyone trust this? i sure as hell dont. but i thought maybe i can get a group vote on this

I don't own a motion, nor have I ever owned an LG device, but even I can tell that's fake/dangerous. I wouldn't recommend anyone try that on their device.

I think the link should be removed from thread so no one tries to follow the steps and then bricks....some people don't read anything at all and click on whatever links they find...

I thi.k the lg motion will deffenetly get i
Jellybean since lg is going to update all its 2012 device tht is capable of running jellybean and the motion deffenetly can run jellybean

 

[ray1126]

It will get jellybean the same day metro sends out the rebate card to everyone that bought 1 motion.

It's been three months since I sent out the rebate form and I still haven't got my $50.00 rebate visa I think the email I got said I should get my rebate by the end of 2013

Thing is, LG only updates for fixes unless the carrier pays em for a upgrade. I have yet to see Metro upgrade anything other than the Huawei Ascend from 2.1 to 2.2 and that was after they released a special edition that had 2.2.

Jelly Bean with no flash support and in-app and phone content search disabled. I'd rather stick with ICS for now.

MetroPCS is pretty lame at keeping up-to-date with latest OS. They are still selling 2.3 android phones.

Took the words right out of my mouth! lol

I got two droid bionics that are blocked from recieving upgrades! lol

 

[Satires]

Flash support comes from devs: )

I don't know about that, I wouldn't hold my breath.

My wife has the lg motion, hers will also be blocked from any upgrades. The phone is fast, it works, suits all of her needs.

My advice to anyone is hold off on any major upgrades and let the chips fall. Meaning, let others do the upgrade and keep an eye on the web and the forums for complaints.

The LG Motion will get a jelly bean update the question is when

6 months after your post and they're still doing it

Samsung Admire 4G comes with 2.3 loaded. Why bother now?

i work for metro and the sales for the motion is crazy. metro needs to change the price online back to 149.99 because people cant read the whole thing and see they have to buy two to get a $50 rebate. its a really go phone, i just bought two, one for me and one for my gf. Ive heard some things about this phone getting jellybean and it also depends on LG not just metro.

I read the offer on the Metro site and the rebate form. Did not see anything about having to by 2 phones. What did I miss or not see?

OK so i downloaded and read the WHOLE thing it plainly says
**"Offer valid for (1) Visa prepaid card per Eligible Phone purchase with activation"**

**"Visa prepaid card offer good only on the following MetroPCS phones
and accessories purchased between January 10th, 2013 - March 3rd, 2013: LG Motion 4G, Samsung GALAXY Admire 4G. The foregoing MetroPCS phone and accessories collectively are

I'd guess about the 16th of Never.

Doesn't make any sense to update the Motion. It's done with.

We already have AOKP 4.1.1 and CM10 and both are almost stable, so meh.

 

[cjbandroid]

I upgraded from ICS to JB on my ASUS TF700T tablet.

Can't say that I notice much difference. HAd to jump thru hoops to retain root, but I did. Maybe just a little bit smoother video playback... maybe. Maybe just a little bit smoother, more responsive web browser... maybe.

Dunno, but JB didn't do much for me.

I have found the article of LG Motion 4G upgrading to Jelly Bean here Upgrade/Update LG Motion 4G MS770 to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean | Upgrade Update Android - www.upgrade-update-android.info

Appreciate the info, but similar articles have been posted in the past for various LG Handsets and they're pretty much fake.

As far as I'm aware, the motion isn't compatible with ROM Manager (although I'm prepared to be corrected on that).

Fwiw, I'd strongly recommend no one try the process laid out in that "article", you'll end up with a shiny paperweight!
