Your version shouldn't matter... Refurb, or not. The LG Updater should work now.
I ask because when using the updater you have to install lg driver and it ask which device and there are 3 or 4 different ones. Not sure if its the same driver or what?
The drivers for LGP999DW, LGP999DWDU and LGP999DWP are the same. They are the same phone. Two are must designations for LG refurb units. It should not matter which one you use. Also, the updater will tell you which one you have when you connect the phone and the udpater is running. You can then select the exact match to your device if you so desire.

i downloaded the LGMobile Support Tool to update my phone, and i went through the connecting process, the driver scanned my phonoe, but then after it says:
"The Cell phone is the latest version already. So you don't need to update."
what do i do? i really want GB on my phone :[

Is your phone a recent replacement? If it shows up in the LG updater as a P999DWP rather than the original build, P999DW, it won't update. Just curious, if it is a DWP, what does your SN start with (under your battery)? Mine is 106KPQJ
mine was a replacement so do you think we will have to wait until ota update for ours to work?
I tried updating to 2.3.3 using the lg updater, that was a fail. States I have the latest version. V10f. Under phone model it states LG-P999dwdu?? Tried ota, says I have the latest update. I've tried reverting back to a factory backup I made when I first got the phone, nothing..Unrooted, nothing, factory recovery, nothing.. Tried Gunmanns factory restore, nothing....Unrooted with factory recovery, nothing. I bought the phone outright new in April. The phone model on the back states LG-P999. Called LG, they told me my model is LG-P999DW and that the DU on the end means nothing. There has to be a meaning for the extra letters at the end. When I purchased this it was new. Does anyone have an idea what this model number means?
LG tried to walk me through the update again and when it failed again, they wanted me to wait two weeks for ota update from T-Mobile. If that doesn't work, they want me to trade my phone I bought new for $500+ for a refurbished one. I don't even want the factory rom, just the baseband. Miui is running smooth for me.
I appreciate any help that I can get right now. Neither T-mobile or LG have an answer for me.
Refurbs won't update with the updater either. They are model # P999dwp. I'm stuck waiting as well.
mine just says "LG-P999"... it wasn't refurbed. LG updater says the model is not supported. I dont get it.

Do you have the stock recovery installed?
That or use the KDZ flasher that's floating around with a 32-bit XP machine or virtual machine. Might work? Don't hold me accountable for bricks; it's just a suggestion. Never heard of P999DWDU before. Just DW and DWP.
yea i do... reverted to try the update. I flashed to stock using OneClickRecovery and unrooted using SuperOneClick. model not supported. I don't even really need the LG stock update....just want the new baseband
I haven't tried the kdz flasher yet. I was just curious if anyone has heard of this model number.

I have a stock UK Optimus 3D but software update on phone says latest version is 10d, I have read that people are downloading version 10j with the game converter but are any in the UK as if so how are you updating?
Also tried updating with LG mobile update tool but that doesn't recognise my phone when attached to pc for some reason so that failed (I did install usb drivers but Windows 7 and XP both say its an unknown device although it finds an LG modem).
So at the risk of sounding stupid, how are people getting the converter? And when the gingerbread update comes out must that be done via a pc?

I don't think it's officially out yet.go to the optimus 3d Android development page and download the ROM from there and flash it to ur phone.even my phone is from uk.

I best wait then as my phones on two year contract and if I flash rom it invalidates warranty. Thanks for the info though.

download the above kdz.. download & install "LG UP"..connect your phone thru USB (im assuming u have LG usb drivers installed & ur pc detects it perfectly)
open LG UP.. select the kdz file
Select "UPGRADE" & execute... 10-15 min for installation & another 15-20 for booting up.

Guys, I purchased an unlocked AT&T LG V10. It's currently running h90020j. I haven't received any ota updates yet.
My concern is that if I flash the new software version, will my phone get locked again? I use Etisalat SIM card in it.
i want to update my Unlocked AT&T LG V10 to the latest update H90021W. i tried using lg bridge but it prompts me to update from the update center from the phone itself. when i try to update from the phone, it shows "Device is up to date".
my question is that if i update via flashing the firmware file, will my device be relocked by AT&T? i live outside USA and Etisalat as my carrier. i have already downloaded the .kdz file for v21w software. i worried whether the device will get relocked by AT&T. help me out guys.
also i am getting a pretty poor battery out of my V10. wondering whether the new update would give me a better battery life.

I have updated to H90021W months ago it went smooth and error free. all my data was kept in tact and I have face 0 issues since then. I hope they find a way to get the kdz file for the future updates. Also no it shouldn't relock the device mine was unlocked when it updated and stayed unlocked.
hello everyone, last week I bought an LG k61. I have been surprised with a .kdz with android 10 for lgup, considering that it is a SOC MT6765. I realized when opening settings, with qualcomm it is not the same. I do not want to get into discussions of whether it is better or not, only that by always using the LG V series, I am kind of lost with this. I always use LG on mobile devices. Does anyone know anything related to flashing through LGUP for this model in question?
I have managed to update to android 10 with LGUP 1.16 and the .dll 1.0.40.2 (.msi package). Before I had installed in the laptop LG bridge and the latest wqhl drivers (LG mobile drivers).

In this case I have used the upgrade option, do not use the refurbish option, due to the antiroll-back, you will make it hardbrick.

lg up shuts down at 4 percent, what is the issue?
I'm looking to change firmware. From Colombia to Mexico. Or root would be eveb better. But I'm also used to LGs that are Qualcomm. V10, V30. I'm learning but a little lost on MTKs. LGUP does shut down when it gets to 4% even though I changed the common dll. Anyone figure this out yet?
