Update for TMobile LGP999 to V21e is out

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.

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.

That's odd. I always had the March 21st Baseband...I think.

Looks like you updated either through the LG tool or OTA, and restored a froyo nandroid, no?
Flashing roms and restoring nandroids doesn't restore basebands as far as I know... we're still waiting on flashable zips.

Nop..I used lg update tool. Didn't like not having root access so I nvflash and restored back to froyo. The basebands remain the same for some reason.

Errr... did you not read my post at all?? That's exactly what I said you did... you're post is almost identical to mine except for the unwarranted "nope" in front.
If you use the update tool or OTA and then flash or restore back to froyo, the baseband DOES NOT get restored.

You have to flash a new baseband to change the baseband. So far no one has posted the basebands to flash. The LG tool changed it and for now there is no going back.

july 15 is the new baseband .. looks like u already had it..
whats your problem ?

The july 15th is the newest baseband that is included with the update.
if you do ota or the lg tool it will change the baseband .
custom roms do not change the baseband.
So if you installed from lg than went to any other rom you will still have the july 15th baseband.
if you install the GB update from xda either of the rooted ones from froyo without ever installing from lg or ota. you would have the newest build for the gingerbread update but your baseband would still be the original that came with the phone.
It is the practice that custom roms do not touch the baseband. not sure if anyone has ever included the baseband with a custom rom but i have not seen it.
hope this explains it.

Cool did you notice anything different as kernel or radio or android version?

It's been released days ago in the development section. Go check there. New radio is worth flashing.

I see people over in the dev section in thread "[RADIO] HTC Glacier Radios" talking about flashing a leaked build with updated radio driver and expecting an official release to follow.
Is there any detailed release notes out there explaining this update? Is it just a better radio driver? anything else?

My MT4G was handed down to a friend and has been getting a system update notification beginning yesterday. I have told her not to let it go through for now, and to write down what the update notification says - if anything.
I had CM& on it, but I reverted back to stock based froyo ROM before I gave it to her - wanted everything working. It also had what was the latest radio (as of a few months back), and faux stock based kernel. and of course CWM.
With all the above, I am surprised it is trying to update - always though you had to revert to all stock (including Recovery). I do not see any benefit in letting it go through, plus from the above post, would also be afraid it might unroot the device, so would like to know that also.

YES. Find the unrooted version and flash that instead. optionally flash the radio separately.

Have decided to not update at this time.
Is there any way to stop the update notification from popping up every time the phone is booted up?

how have you rooted it man?!?!... please share the link to clear root instructions for the latest updated stock ROM if you can.... thanks!

I also received system update to 2.3.4 and downloaded it yesterday. As much as I wanna do what some may have already done (reverting back to froyo > temp/perm root > restore back to gingerbread) that's just seems alot of work. Anybody know whats the status on alternative (easy temp/perm root) for gingerbread 2.3.4? I sure do like to know if it's already in development.

ATT Official GB Upgrade

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

Not really
i got one of those in December for fuggin froyo, that was LATE

Too bad most of us are already running 2.3.5 and higher builds. Would there be any reason to switch to official update?

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?

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 !

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.
