I just used the LGMobile Support tool to check for updates. This time it said update available launced a new screen checked the s/w version then gave me the message "Software Update not supported for this model". Mine is rooted running the FAUX ext4 kernel. Has anyone tried with a stock phone?
I have used it on a my phone without an issue. I am running a stock build of froyo and I am not rooted.

Have you tried recently? I am curious if there really is an update.
I have no examples or anything, but I seem to remember a few threads before where people said there was an update, tried to go through with it and there wasn't really one... Or something like that.
Unless this is ANOTHER one, but I doubt it.

Without the phone plugged in you can check the software version for the device.

If you got root you will never update your phone (i didn't talk about custom kernel !)
Just tried last night and it says my phone is up to date.

I unrooted and reverted to stock recovery this morning. There is no update.
Now back to normally scheduled programs.
Good to know.

I recently rooted my Inspire. Today there was a WIFI update available and when I went to run the update the screen blacked out with an exlclamation mark. Is this because of the root that the phone will not take the update? Or is that the update process?
Thanks
Is the update from your service provider or from the people that created the ROM? If it's from your provider I would not even try to run the update just wait for an updated version of your rom to come out.
Thanks!
Kind of what I was thinking but being new to the device I thought I would ask.
Thanks again!
This is just to enable better speeds but all the ROMs already enable that.

Actually, its likely the side loading update, which most Roms also have. The speed update was weeks ago...

The OTA update is a combination of a patch pack and some new firmware for the radio and hboot. The first phase is applying the patch pack. For this to work, you need a pretty much stock ROM. If you're rooted, you likely have a few files that will be different and the patch will fail. It also checks the CID and aborts if you're not using stock (ie you used gfree to "open" your SIM, etc.). The firmware will only install after the patching process has completed successfully.
If you are rooted, then your best bet is to just use ATTN1's package that contains all the patched files and firmwares. You can find it here:

I've been using the older version for a while now but cannot update since official thread is locked and the link on there has not been working for me for some reason. Comes out as. Zip.zip format. And I keep getting an error messenger when I try to flash it. Something I found out has to do with it just being a bad zip. Anyone have a clean one that works?

It is a fix of the update. The update was not installing.
It is not an update, so to speak.

The lastest one for the Infuse is 1.11.11. The guy who was porting the new updates for the Infuse every week is not doing it anymore, so no updates for the Infuse beyond 1.11.11.
You can find 1.11.11 here:

Ignore incorrectly typed version on the zip file.
Now that 1.11.18 is out I am happy camper. Thanks everyone

I downloaded the original GB update back in July, just saw this and haven't had a chance to try it. Anyone know if it is an update over the previous "fix". I sure hope it is, just did the daily battery pull about ten minutes ago. It would be nice to get that fixed.
Nope its 2.3.3

Right, I assumed that would probably be the case. I was talking about the other stuff kernals/basebands or anything at all that could possibly be different which would actually fix this phone.
A friend is downloading it now (he was still on froyo) we will compare and let you guys know if anything appears to have been updated over the first "update/fix".
Ok , it's exactly the same

Lo and beware, I got a notice about an update this morning before 6.10. I'm up to date on GB, so what's up? Naturally the connection to the server always fails when I do the check. . . .

UPDATE: checked the LG support tool at 10.40 which says no update needed. Nevertheless, I still get the exclamation point in the status bar and "you can check a new software" although (as happened with GB) it is impossible to connect to the LG server with the phone.

Same here. Rooted stock 2.3.4.
My phone has been saying connection failed since just before the last update. I had to use the LG Tool last time. But as for now, I haven't gotten any notices, and the LG Tool says i'm up to date. Who knows, maybe by the end of the day, there will be something........HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!
Got up this morning, there was a notification of new update available, installed it! Hola! Official Jelly bean with butter!
Then I really woke up to know it was a dream!
This makes me want to flash a stock rooted Rom just to see the message despite what you guys have said about not being able to download it
The update is that there's no update.

Just installed the update. Only took a couple of minutes and didn't wipe any data for me, but we'll have to see about battery life. I had resorted to disabling all of the location based services it had gotten so bad.

Definitely seems to have fixed the battery drain issues. I was able to turn everything back on and the battery is draining at about the same levels it was on ICS.
I would assume this is a T-Mobile USA update. My post-update version number is 3.14.531.17 710RD.
Does anyone have a download link for the OTA? The "Manually Update from HTC" links all go to the 3.14.531.11 RUU.
How do we update the phone if it is rooted? Mine is rooted and it keeps booting to the recovery and nothing after that. Is it possible to unroot so I can install the update and root it again afterwards? I don't want to flash it to stock and then root it all over again.
I updated yesterday. Glad to see this update. I ended up taking my phone apart and replaced the battery thinking it had gone bad. Jury is still out on whether this update makes a difference.
