Definitely wouldn't at this time... I'm sure the partition sizes on the two devices are different, as was the case with the G2 and the Desire Z

I just flashed the P999 AP BIN on my O2X (P990) with SmartFlash for P990 .
Its looking really good. Stock Android 2.2.2 (Froyo) with T-Mobile bloat, but nothing we cant uninstall.
EDIT: It seems I cant connect to my Vodafone network. Everything else seems to be working.
EDIT2: Root is gone. See if Super One Click can bring it back...Yup got root back .

So everything is working apart from the network I.e. phone calls, SMS etc?

More or less, but there are still issues when it comes to partitions. You better follow this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1031969

can someone explain how to flash the firmware using smartflash? I cant seem to get it working

Hmm, my phone only reads LG-P999-V10f in the Factory Version part of settings. There was a screenshot in an different thread of the Factory Version being LGP999AT-00-v10f-TMO-US-MAR-27-2011. Now this one is LGP999AT-01-V10f-310-260-MAR-27-2011+0.
Does that mean there is 3 different versions of the firmware out there? If so I wonder if any have the 850 Band for AT&T available to select?

Dude speaking of the AT&T bands our device already is setup for it. Its just hidden. See below.
T-mobile was not lying like others have stated.

As reported in other threads, clicking on those menu items doesn't actually do anything.

It is thought that it may take a modified baseband to make them accessible (although one post in the general section sounded like he received a SIM unlock code from TMO and was told to activate it with an AT&T SIM in the device).
Related to that, the flashing of the G2x Firmware on the Ox2 probably screwed up the baseband on it,as they use different bands. Someone on the Ox2 Forum did the reverse - everything worked but the network connections also

Software Update

Mine is at V08J and saying the latest through LGMobile Support Tool. Anyone else have something different?

I have same version u have. It says my phone is up to date. How can we update?
Sent from my LG-P920 using XDA App

you can't because it's not a retail phone you need to wait for someone to make custom rom

I mean its an unlocked phone. I don't see how we can't. Especially if were trying from lg servers? Not a specific carrier

I dont think the firmware is "available" as of yet, thats why. It says it's the latest but the phone isn't released yet. Developer or not shouldnt have ANYTHING to do with it.

WHEN the phone is released the update will go live. That is the latest version for the phone that IS YET TO BE RELEASED. Therefore, it is not LIVE as you say. Until you can show me it on your phone, means it isnt available...yet! I agree it is the latest software version for the phone.

Yeah, if it recognizes our dev phone as LG-P920 it should update it. If its carrier specific then that's a whole different story. If someone was able to update.through the Lg Update tool please let us know.

[Q] help i dont know if my phone bricked?

I bought a g2x from craigslist. its brand new but i guess that previous owner has done some update or something now it does not show any baseband version. So my Sim card which i changed to 4g version yesterday does not show any network. my old sim card did not show any network either.
this is what i see when i look at About Phone
Model # LG-P999
Android Version 2.2.2
Baseband Version : Unknown
Kernel Version : 2.6.32.9
Build Number : FRG83G
Software Version : LG-P999-V10f
I am coming from a vibrant with using bionix and not new to rooting or flashing rom. I did research a lot. But not sure if this is something that can be fix.
Please help.
thanks a lot in advance

Try the official update ota or via LG, other threads describe the process and that might get you the new baseband.

I tried to run the software update check from the phone. i connected with wifi. but i guess as it does not have a connection with tmobile netowrk its showing connection failed.

I think what heysharon is saying, is to update through lg website with your phone connected to your pc.

Ohhh, Yeah tried that already. But LG updater says device not supported for update. is there a way to flash the baseband ? I have a feeling that the previous owner flashed a o2x rom or something which changed the baseband. and then he ran the recovery to fix it.

Which model do you have? Check under the battery hood if it's Model 990 or 999. Perhaps it's wrong update for the phone.

Sorry I saw now you said it's 999. If there is no baseband you might have to return it to the Tmo...

Was it working when you bought it from the Craigslist seller? Did you try it with a SIM card before you bought it? Just wondering if the problem was there when you bought it or if you might've done something to the phone after you bought it.

it was working with his sim. my sim did not support 4g network at that moment so could not check it with my sim. then i got my sim yesterday. and have been trying to use it after words. no Luck. i guess i just lost $300.

That seems odd. You saw it working with his SIM? Did you or him make any changes to the phone software after you saw it working? The baseband wouldnt just disappear.

Probably didn't flash an O2X rom as that would've changed the partition table and I don't think you can restore the G2X system back to it ... well at least without going to great lengths to fix the partitions.

i guess what happened is i really did not check it throughly. his sim was inside the phone and when he gave me he took it off and did a factory reset. thats what it was. and i was texting him before we met and he was calling me or texting me from his phone. i believed him. and i can see what happned for believing him. great

Try doing the regular nvflash thing root it n flash a rom or stock nanroid maybe that'll bring the baseband back

[Q] New firmware posted on sammobile.com from Mexico I727UMLH2

Anyone know what this new firmware for i727 posted on www.sammobile.com is:
Mexico (Telcel) - I727UMLH2

It's the same ICS like for AT&T. And this ROM have network lock. So if you use unlocked Skyrocket hen better don't install it.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app

I'm sorry but that sounds unlikely. Can anyone else confirm that there's a network lock in UMLH2 firmware?
And if there is isn't it easy to bypass by skipping to install CSC?

i dont see how it could since the lock is in the efs and that package doesnt touch the efs. but that doesnt mean there isnt. ill test it later.

Problem while checking for update

I am trying to check update but showing a message that "we are unable to update" (as showing in the screenshot). I am rooted but using the stock rom. can somebody explain and give some information regarding this issue ..?? :silly:
PS: I am using the phone in India so i'm using wifi to update.

Somebody can correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure you can't update over wifi. You need a data connection and I'm pretty sure it has to be a Verizon connection. There's a few other posts regarding this around here somewhere but I don't think a solution has ever been found other than to flash a rom that has the update in it.

If it's a Verizon version of the one (which is what this section is for) then you do indeed need to have a connection to Verizon's network to check for the update, yes it can be downloaded on WiFi but the initial check for an update must be done wit h a Verizon connection
