Update for TMobile LGP999 to V21e is out - T-Mobile LG G2x

I checked the LG Mobile S/W updater today, and it showed that its latest S/W was now L21e.
Did a nandroid and restored stock ROM. Connected it and if offered the upgrade. It warned that it will erase all user data.
I started the process,and after several minutes, Windows notified me that LG updater program had stopped working (don't know if this was a *%&*% Windows issue or LG).
I am starting over again....

Can it be omg?!? I heard ChiefzReloaded got some sort of OTA on his G2x but he said it was like 46 MB only?

Not to sound stupid, but is this gingerbread or a fix for 2.2?

On the LG updater, it had shown V10F as the ROM until today, It now shows L21e. That like like a ROM to me.

V21e

ss or it didnt happen

Was this OTA? If not please provide link. LG's website is poop.

Any ideas on where to get the LG Mobile Support Tool. The link to it on LG.com appears to be overloaded or closed.
I'm very jealous that people are getting the 2.3.3

Agreed, pics or it didn't happen.

Well I guess it may be different on MIUI lol.
It looks like a bunch of jargon to me:
"M600A-SCAUTNZ-2.0.9720T 1 {JUN 05 2011 04:00:00} MP:TRULGE_08.09.02R_MDM"
going by that date(june 5th) looks like you got that older baseband. New baseband should be july something if im not mistaken.

Dang is there a way to upgrade the baseband without loosing my ROM setup?
If I made a nand backup of my current rom, then installed stock froyo and upgraded through LG to gb, then restored my nand backup?
G2x only has 2 basebands, April 27 and July 15 are the days I believe. Is this a tmous g2x? If so something is wrong here..

:S Yes it's t-mobile g2x (basically same phone) I'm just on wind in Canada.
Am I using a completely wrong baseband here? lol maybe that's why my battery life is to the crapper.
Holy crap! I definitely accidently flashed the O2X firmware the first time I tried modding my phone... Did I end up with the O2X baseband??
Edit:: Reversing to stock froyo and upgrading to 2.3.3 GB did indeed work!! I'm now on the jul 15 baseband!
It diffidently wasn't an o2x baseband, or it would say unknown, and would be unrecoverable. However it could have been the wind baseband, Idk if the dates are different for them. But happy it upgraded too the latest for you.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
The Froyo TMO baseband had a March date. That's the Froyo Wind Canada baseband. It would work perfectly on Wind or TMO since the hardware is identical. So basically for the P999 we have three viable basebands. Now we just need to find a way to flash them at will like they can on the P990.

ATT Official GB Upgrade

Just got a text from ATT telling me to upgrade to Android 2.3. Little late, no? ;D

So I upgraded my girlfriend's cappy to Froyo using CWM (or was it Odin? I can't remember) awhile back; I know it's not official because Kies said her phone was unregistered and so I couldn't do the stock version of Froyo. She's getting this same message now that GB is available; does anyone know if it'll work or break her phone if she downloads it while running an unofficial Froyo?

Unregistered devicecould be the rom you have, a borked imei number, or an improper product code.

Thanks. Would any of those break an official OTA update?
Just one of them will cause Kies mini to give you "unregistered device"
What about updates that are pushed to the phone via AT&T and Wifi?
Not sure. But if i had to guess, i would say yes, those too.
Well, non stock rom-yes
Bad imei-probably
Bad product code-maybe
Sorry i can't be more helpful
Flash back to stock and then upgrade form there if your uncertain, better safe than sorry....

Wifi not working in Custom Rom

Hello,
After managing to root my phone I tried eagleblood. It was good until I realised that the Wifi is not working. It detects networks but immediately says 'Out of Range' so I am unable to connect to any network.
I also tried HellFire's custom rom and here I wasn't even able to scan for networks.
Your help is needed.
Thank You.
I forgot to mention that my wifi works is cyanogen 7 (Gingerbread based).
Hmm...never had this issue with an ICS rom. What baseband are you on? Also....anytime I flash a ROM and have issues the first thing I do is use the app GetRil to make sure ril and baseband are matching. I'm not sure if this would have anything to do with your issue but its something give a shot.

I have returned back to my backed up stock rom. One cannot live these days without Wifi !!
With eagleblood as I mentioned I can see networks but cannot connect because it immediately appears 'Out of Range'.
With hellfire, I cannot see anything. Hellfire was running quite smoothly !!
With Cyanogenmod, it is working just as it did with the stock rom. However the phone always freezes when I tried to drag the top right corner. I have no idea why !
Here is a snapshot of the phone :

I've heard that 2.3.3 baseband had issues with wi-fi. You could try upgrading your baseband to 2.3.4 if you would like.

I have also tested all non gingerbread roms and all have the same wifi issue and also I cannot use mobile data or make a call in all except eagle blood.
What has 2.3.3 has to do with the Wifi in EagleBlood 4.0.4 ?
Can I upgrade my baseband from stock gingerbread ?
Yes but I'm not positive on how to actually do it. I believe you need to use the lg updater tool

I have upgraded to 2.3.4 - As I was expecting . . . there is no change !!!
Still no wifi or mobile data !!!
I think I'm tired testing roms. In all of them Mobile data doesn't work. Yes I've tried all settings and used GetRil.
HellFire was really smooth but one cannot live without internet these days.
Until then.
Have you tried nvflash tools like cleanup batch or ROM for recovery?

Yes I noticed that. It was the third option. It is not just eagles blood. All other roms have their problems. In most of the ICS based roms I get no Mobile data and no Wifi.
In cyanogenmod 7 I don't get mobile data.
With Bionix Reloader (from stock) everything works but you don't get much of the tweak settings available.
Its the way the cookie crumbles.
I would try Twitch's suggestion and give cleanup batch a try.
