[Q] Just to be sure.

I just need to make sure i understand this right.
My phone before was on Froyo 2.2 v10b and updated it using LG official updater.
Now i got GB 2.3.5 v20b. Since there is no way to ROOT this yet, If i follow this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1287236 and flash using V21A KDZ, will i still have GB 2.3.5 and will i lose my data?
And we don't need internet connection with this process right?
And i can root V21a right?
Thank!
EDIT:
when i clicked UPGRADE START BUTTON in UpTestEX_mod2_marwin.exe(i followed all steps), the Select Country did not show up, it went directly to LG Official Flasher.

Any good samaritan out there?

[Q] Going back to 2.1 or 2.2

Hello.
Yesterday i went from 2.2 to pacman custom rom. Phone got jammed up really badly, half things didnt work, including wifi, mobile network etc.
After that i cleaned up via recovery and went to bakedbean. Now here its worse. Instead of half stuff not working, the phone just goes black most of the time and the mobile network not working. (rest working pretty good,when not black screened).
Now, my wife is pregnant and getting a kid any day now and i need to get my phone fixed. After a few hours scrolling on the webs and site, i coudnt find any info, if its possible for me to get back on a stock 2.1 or 2.2 from this custom rom. I need to be reachable for when she gotta give birth >.<
Please help me anyone.
Regards,
Ajdin

Thanks a lot. When i go to the link, and i check out any KDZ of GB, they all go to an error page, same with the flash package, not available. I found a V30B_00.kdz

First off all can i say congratulations is it your first? If so welcome to parenthood
i think the V30.kdz thats going around is the american ics for p920 i could be wrong. If you are american you can grab it and flash it using the kdz update method there is also a v28b.kdz which is the Europe version. Theres is also xbsall's bin file which is pre-rooted 28B (not sure if the v30B has a bin yet) using the bin method all guides are on the forum . Either flashing one will put you on stock LG ICS and will be reachable with the benefits of of ics.

[Q] p920 debrand ?

Hi. Please could somebody help me. I have a UK model from orange. It's now unlocked but has orange bloatware. I have searched the forums for a debrand method but only found one, and that only works with win xp.
Is there any way to unbrand this phone with windows 7. Orange did not support this phone and it's still stuck on android 2.2.2.
Thanks in advance

AFAIK by installing any custom ROM your phone will be unbranded.

Have you tried updating your phone through EMERGENCY mode in LGFlashTool? Maybe you'll get stock ICS / JB because the branded ones are not made by LG?

How do i go about the process ? To be honest, i'm quite nervous about doing it. I've unbranded a number of phones in the past but this a tad more complicated.
I really appreciate that you have continued to be of help. Thankyou !

Could you try this?
I've done it a few times myself, with succes, and I think this is the way I've managed it.
*This asumes you've installed
Follow this on the official LG site: http://www.lg.com/uk/support-mobile/lg-LGP920 , and go to the tab "software update".
But instead of just updating your phone do this: Click on User/Support (above) then emergency mode, insert your IMEI and click on check

?
It didn't work i'm afraid. What's really odd is that the phone is on froyo 2.2.2 and the OTA update from the phone says there's no update available. Yet the lg update tool tells me an update is available yet after it has downloaded and about to 'install' it stops and says that the update cannot continue because a 'fatal error' has occured ?
Very odd. I'm guessing the orange bloatware is the problem. I HATE orange !
Edit. Ok, i just installed all the flashing tools to my pc (win 7) But when i open flash tool a window appears saying 'lg usb/parallel key is not detected. i'm also asked for a password and id ?

I downloaded everything but there was no crack included for the flashtool and no .dll file to enter into the flashtool ? it certainly looks incomplete so did not help at all.
Do i really have to keep entering an image verification everytime i need to reply on my own thread ? Seems so daft.

If it is rooted you can delete almost anything you want.

Funnily enough i tried your method first. The flashtool kept asking for an id and password so i could not continue. Where do i find the id and password ? that was with flashtool 1.1 running on win 7

Copy the indicated file over the original as instructed or use 1.2 if you want. You also have to run the installer before using it...It might be a good idea to run it in xp sp3 compatibility mode.

dll
The link for downloading the p920 .dll file is broken. Is it available anywhere else ?

Thanks for telling me, I'll repost it...

Thanks drastic00. I've downloaded the link :good:

not working
I've now tried all methods and nothing works. The furthest i have got so is to hit the yellow start button on the flash tool, but the port does not become ready. I have followed all instructions to the letter.

Recheck step 1 details carefully. Be sure antivirus and Defender are off when downloading and decompressing. It won't start until drivers are installed correctly.
You should see the devices in device manager with no 'blinking' of the omap device, and LG CDMA USB SERIAL, on which you change the port number to 41. Then you are ready to flash.
That part is fiddly.

if you lose you IMEI .....
Restoring IMEI
1.Connect phone by USB
2.Activate USB debug mode
3.Enter 3845#*920# in dialer if that doesn’t work try 3845#*925# or 3845#*720# if device is SU760
4.Select Port Settings -> Select CP USB
5.A new device should appear at let it install
6.Open Tutty and select serial protocol. Click on open
7.Type AT if response is not OK, change port number (it is possible that when typing you don’t see any letters)
8.Type at%imei, it should display a dummy IMEI
9.Type at%imei=x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x where x,x,x... is your orginal IMEI number (found under the battery of your phone). It should response IMEI WRITE OK

just to remind you i have installed every single latest driver and downloaded every flasher, lg flash tool, kdz offline upgrader ,smart flash , installed omap driver, successfully tried to get in s/w mode. tell me sth to relax me go on with the upgrade! am currently downloading v30b, v20f and the resurrection 10a!
[edit] yeah i needed to tick usb debugging and connect it to pc then type the code.

Happiest Day of My Life!
I just followed the Update method, and succesfully upgraded to ICS without losing anything even the wallpaper didnt change. network fine wifi fine faster boot times and cool boot animation. still testing but slower! though i got used to that with Galaxy S duos. thanks for the rom Master. well i couldnt use the notification center in vertical mode and the ics didnt cured that. well am happy! i can now install every single app i want, yippy!:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

soon, am sorry but am kinda busy. i will list every thing i did!

How did I DID IT!
well at first the lg mobile support tool couldnt recognize my phone, may be because i live in 'unknown' country. so i manually downloaded every driver known to be made for this phone and installed them. when i opened the tool again it recognized it and told me i have to update the drivers i did. so i had the latest drivers for the phone. i downloaded the 'offline installer download' link from the xda link i posted earlier and downloaded v30b from the link i got from MasterTobi. i ticked USB Debugging and connected to pc, then i started the vbs script it did all the modifications i needed then i followed the instruction then viola! android upgraded. i was shocked when the phone lit up on 90% but completed with no errors.

Hi all first i had GB 2.3 prometheus running but apps on my SU760 were not working well probably because prometheus is P920 port.
So i used LG smart flash tool and flashed froyo 2.2 V10 and then upgraded to 2.3.5 GB using LG support tool all is good until now.
Wait !!!!!
-------------
So now i try to upgrade to ICS using LG support tool my phone is detected by the tool but all of a sudden i get a pop up phone not connected properly, so i run LG support tool as SP3 and run as administrator, still no luck !!!
I then extracted V30b KDZ which is ICS 4.0.4 to bin and fls and used LG smart flash tool to flash directly with ICS but the download mode keeps on dropping out hence i cannot flash the SU760 all the wat to 100% with ICS.
I have now been trying to get ICS on my phone for last 48 hours but no luck.
My Question is:-
1) Is it really worth upgrading SU760 to ICS because i had ICS earlier this year and my phone started to crawl and really slow.
2)Is there a way to get ICS on my phone apart from LG support tool and LG smart flasher and offline flashing is not working for me.
3)Even if i do manage to get ICS then is the ICS rom 4.0.4 by xbsall http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1963847 ported from experia fast enough on SU760 ?
Thanks in advance,

have the sprint version of the phone and woke up this morning to a prompt that there was an android update. with my brain not being awake yet i went ahead and told it to update, not thinking about root preventing the update. So went about my morning routine and came back and the phone was booted back up, but obviously the update didn't apply as i was still on ZV4, not ZV5. when checking for update it says there are no updates available.
can anyone help me/us out and post some steps for how to unroot and reapply the update? i'm good at following directions, just too new to this stuff to be able to figure it out on my own

anyone have any tips on forcing the OTA to download again?i've disabled SU, rebooted, and factory reset and it still says i'm up to date when checking for an update. or is there a way to download the OTA and update the phone some other way?

I tested all the files and I have no message and signal works perfectly.

woke up this morning to the prompt that there was an update available again, not sure why it does it overnight but won't when i manually check for update..... anyway, i disabled SU, rebooted, then started the update and watched it this time and in the middle of the upgrade it came up with the android guy on his back and it said error. after a bit it restarted again and was back to where i started, no update.
so it looks like i need to unroot. would appreciate any help on how to unroot so i can apply the OTA, thanks!!!!!

Here with a sprint flex 2. First time I tried ota update I was rooted and it failed. A few days later the update notification showed up again, went ahead and unrooted, tried the update and still failed. I'm not sure root has anything to do with update failing now. Could be something else. So far I haven't read about anyone successfully completing update and reporting it.

I was getting the same error message about being rooted even after un rooting the device.
I installed the lg pc suite and upgraded to 10d that way and then re rooted using the method on this forum.
It looks like there may be a flag thats triggered once u root that doesnt get removed even if u unroot it.

ugh! i can't even get my phone to connect to pc suite to try and "fix" it so i can attempt the update
