I have a g2x on the 2.2.2 android version. I tried software updating from the phone but it always gives me -Current version is the latest version- which is definitely not true. How can I fix this? I tried rebooting and hard resetting but nothing works. Also, I cannot do the LG updater thing from the site cause I don't have a laptop or PC I just want to do it manually from the phone I know there's a way. Any help is appreciated!
Could you tell me the device manager server settings for the update? I could tell you how to get to them.

I read that you have to be on 2.3.3 to get the 2.3.4 update. You will need a computer, beg, borrow one.

Hi all.
I have tried rooting my phone using super one click and all it does is hang on "Running gingerbreak" its the same thing when running psneuter.
I now want to reset my phone to factory settings but every time i try it my phone is still on 2.3.3 gingerbread. I upgraded my phone to 2.3.3 by using odin. How do i remove gingerbread completely so i can update my phone to gingerbread using kies.
Any help would be appreciated.
Please when you provide help can u do so by typing it out "step by step".
I live in Canada and my provider is Rogers.
I have play with custom rom, but was tire of them, so i decide to put back my nexus s on stock rom.
I have push the file that i found here version 2.3.3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1063664
Then i let the auto update do the reste. every thing was ok accept that now i cant connect to the 3 G network, i only have edge connection.

Last week i had same problem, i almost got crazy, but after all, the problem was in my provider.
Have you tried another sim card?

That is odd...
I am also with Rogers and I got my phone bricked when I first tried to root it because some guy posted a wack file which bricked almost everyone's phone..
Anyways to the point... I also got the same stock image from the link you posted but for the 2.3.4 update I got it from searching on google somewhere. (Think it was one of those "How to manually update Nexus S to 2.3.4" pages).
I just checked my phone info and it displays all the same info as yours... I am pretty sure I had 3G even before pushing the 2.3.4.... Try locking the boot loader and re unlock and give it another shot. If nothing works, just lock the boot loader after you install the 2.3.4 update and take it back to rogers and ask them to send it in for a fix.
hi guys... thanks for trying to help me...

Usually when I've tried to update it would automatically say latest version etc. Now its saying checking on software update for about a minute then software update connection failed.I turned off my wi fi, and it still happens.any suggestions? Thanks
Also I'm running stock & not rooted.
i dunno I had the same issue. it would seem that the OTA is pushed out like in batches or something for it to say latest version and/or connection failed. Personally I got tired of waiting and just flashed the OTA gb rom in the dev section. Sure i dont have the new baseband but i honestly dont care lol.
Thank you uploader very much.
This was happening to me as well..called T-Mobile they tried pushing the update through but didn't work so I got a new phone sent out and the update went smooth after that...I just wanted the new baseband and now am running miui alpha 2 and couldn't be happier!

They stopped sending out the updates. Call T-Mobile and ask them if you don't believe me.
Got my replacement G2X last night and it came with 2.2.2, checked for updates and it said i was up to day. Checked the LG updater, same as well. So, I just did the KDZ method and it worked.
Okay, so I read and read, searched and searched. So far I'm pretty stuck.
I did a ton of research before taking my LG P500h, and flashing the ROM because I wasn't a fan of the Froyo android setup. Did everything properly, ran an nandroid backup, everything that I was told to do.
Rooted using Gingerbreak APK, custom backup using Amon_RA custom recovery. All done using the latest USB drivers LG updated me with.
I am currently with Koodo Mobile here in Canada. Pretty much an offspring of Telus Mobile. Currently I am running Cyanogen Mod 7 the 6.5.7 beta build, and the phone is not bricked, or giving me any errors or hassle.
The problem is that I cannot use the 3G network or use the Koodo network. It only defaults to Telus towers. No android market showing up anywhere either. From what I've found on here, there doesn't seem to be a bugfix solution to this, and no settings I've been able to change on the phone has helped my situation. Maybe I missed something.
So, I decided to take it back to where I began, back to Froyo 2.2.1 . This is where it all went wrong. Tried going through the Nandroid backup and restoring that, I was given an " Error : run 'nandroid-mobile.sh restore' via adb! " . Okay, I'm not exactly a Java programmer so I'm a little intimidated. I do however have Android SDK going on my laptop.
Some more searching revealed the KDZ_FW_UPD.exe flashing method. I got the right KDZ file for my Koodo phone, V10V_00.kdz and began the process. Everything checks out, good to go, started update. Wait, phone not found? WTF! My laptop recognizes it, says my phone is connected and working. No problems here, just can't find it? UGH.
So, I need someone to either give me info on getting it to flash the kdz, or get Cyanogen Mod 7 working properly on my device.
Please help, I'll fully admit I'm a noob to this, and not an expert programmer either. But, I know computers and I fully understand what I have done so far to my phone. Just not enough to fix it.
Okay, I have gotten some things working on my phone. I think I am settling into Cyanogen Mod nicely. I missed the Google apps flash zip so I have my market and stuff. Its a shame the data does not work though. Oh well I will keep updating as it gets developed.

GOT IT! finally...
Finally got my phone recovered to OEM specs. I had to restore my computer back to before I installed all my drivers and reinstalled all my USB drivers from there. Phone connected to USB properly, ran the KDZ updater, and it sucessfully installed the V10V kdz. All is well.
finally good luck.. enjoy androiding..
When you flashed the cyanogen mod rom what program did you use to flash the phone? And how did you make a rom backup? When you reflashed the stock rom did it still have all the original bloatware?
LG Optimus P500h TELUS became dead during Upgrading
Hi everybody!
I have LG Optimus P500h Telus. I purchased from Kijiji. I don't have any papers or documents for that so i cannot claim its warranty.
I was trying to upgrade its version during upgrading my device was stuck so I disconnected and plugged out its battery and inserted again. When i tried to turn it on. It never turned on again. It never ever appeared emergency mode again. I tried for several times by pushing home, power, and volume up and down buttons, and escape buttons. Now its just like dead. It never showed any sign of life. If anybody have any idea what happened with it and how I can recover or where I should take this one for repairs. I am in toronto, canada.
Your help and suggestions will be appreciated.
HELP!

My problem starts from post #600
Please.
If you're in Holland you can finally update your phone with the LG update tool. It seems there's a new version available, V21b, released december 13th.
Download link here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=PGBWK2EA
Don't know what's new but the battery stats app seems to have been fixed. Phone is just as snappy and battery usage is the same as V21a.
All languages are available so I suspect it can be applied to any P920 with the KDZ flashing method (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18082599), but ofcourse I take no responsibility
does this have a new baseband included?
Not sure but I've just included a screenshot with the baseband information.
Is this version stil rootable?
21a was rootable via latest SuperOneClick
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1178077
Is someone want to try that and share the results and other experiences for 21b?
It would be nice if Thiaiz based a new rom.
Thanks for the quick upload.
Baseband version looks the same.
Gonna download and check it out tomorrow.

Can anyone that uses this new update list any changes that have been made apart from the battery stats.
I've been trying different methods of rooting but none seem to work at the moment. It might be my USB drivers are just borked so tomorrow I'll hook up my laptop and try to root on that.
So far I've tried any SuperOneClick since 2.1.1 (including the latest 2.3.2) and zergRush with and without Doomlords script.
If anyone's succesfull please let me know
Edit: reverted back to V21a and rooted within 30 seconds so my guess is the zergRush exploit has been fixed. Non-rooters can use this latest update as it works perfectly but I guess the rest of us will have to wait untill a new exploit has been found.

Battery app is still broken under 21B, so the only change is that fact that if you upgrade to 21B you will not be able to root.

The battery app was fixed as far as I could tell and I've heard of people no longer missing calls/messages or having random reboots anymore with the new update though I've never had those problems anyway so I can't say anything about that myself. If LG really fixed those problems I'd say it's a great update.
As soon as a new root exploit has been found (it seems more manufacturers are patching the zergRush exploit) I'll definately update to V21b again but for now V21a works great on my phone.
yesterday I updated to v21b. For me this is a huge update because I never got v21a. I had checked for updates two days ago, but it didn't find any.. .

Still have the gsm problem....
I also had it when i reverted back to froyo. wiped everything, dont understand why its still happening...
not sure about ghostcalls and sms, this happened only once or twice, but my data connection dowsnt work once a day until i go to airplanemode and back.
had it right now with 21b, during marketupdate of facebook it stopped working.
sucks
ok, it happened again... missed sms.
anyone solved this problem in any form?
for me ticking the use only 2g networks solved the problem of ghost calls/sms/stopping data connection. But the speed s*cks of course.
thanks pivotomicsek, will give it a try!
everythings better then missing calls, I guess....
as much as i love the 3d and potential of this phone, as much I hate it by now
hm... seems to have worked at least today....
bad workaround, but better than nothing, thanks again!
so it seems to somehow been losing connection when switching between 2G/3G
Is it V21B rootable atm?
No it isnt

this didn't work for me, thats why i changed back to FroYo and since than everything works smooth and fine... and FroYo is routable of course, 21b isn't.
I'm too in Froyo because of the gsm problem
ps: From portugal
Did anybody try to go back from 21b to 21a or to froyo?
When I try to flash back from 21B to 21A with kdz, my phone restarts and I get a message from Lg update tool that there ia problem in communication between pc and cell phone. Has anyone see such message?
