[Q] LG Thrill Optimus 3D P925 - Install flash tools, etc from Mac? - LG Optimus 3D

Hi guys. Sorry for this, I was unsure where to look. I attempted to ask in a different section but was told to post here.
Here's the problem -
I am stuck with this cell , cannot make calls, connect to wifi, etc. I have read many complaints about this. Basically, I am told by others I need to flash it, and get an upgrade. Currently I am running Android 2.2.2. Sorry guys, I am VERY new to all this. I cannot seem to find any help upgrading it. Of course I cannot do so when attempting via the upgrade option in settings, due to the wifi issue. Can someone please point me in the direction of a tool kit which can be used with Mac OSX?
Also, when I attempt to make calls, I get something like "Reorganizing internal processes"
Software version is currently LGP925 - V10e
If I need to tell anyone anything else about it, can you please let me know? Im so bad with all this, again sorry. I am a recent convert from Windows to Mac. Just not sure how to get the proper tools I need. If I could find them, I can then very easily just follows the steps, which I made a note of.
Thanks so much for anyone who can offer a little assistance.

As far as i know there isn't a Mac Toolkit available.
Apart from that you need to upgrade to Gingerbread but i can't help you on this because i am from Europe and i don't know what's going on with your basebands there..
Maybe a P925 U.S.A user will answer to your question.

Nothing for Mac? That seems a bit... odd, no?
Well thank you anyway.

I have a mac as well and was never able to find a kit. Try asking a relative or a friend if you can use a pc. You'll also need to flash a v20p kdz or a v21e kdz. Whichever one works best for you

[Q] Old Firmwares v07, v08 in KDZ format badly needed...

Hi,
Can someone please upload the old firmwares in .kdz format. Someone suggested that it is the only way we can fix the non-charging of battery problem after flashing our phones with the new ROMs.
I really need this too.
Have you tried this?
Use ADB or a Terminal Emulator to run the following command:
Code:
su
rm /data/system/batterystats.bin
Reboot into clock work Recovery, and choose advanced CWM features and select wipe battery stats
Make sure if this is your first time using adb on your phone that you allow Super User permission to access the phone or else you wont be able to do the coding for the phone battery reset
I cannot see the said file ..batterystats.bin in that folder.I'm using Droid explorer which is much easier to use than adb commands.
Do you know someone who has a tool box? I saw that there is one called pack 9 by furious gold that suports our phone, i don´t know if vigys or octopus box suport o3d, but this is my last solution, or gingerbread perhaps can solve.
Any idea?
Nope...don't know anyone.Hopefully when released, gingerbread will fix it.

I hope so, but I think we need another way to flash, kdz won't solve our problems, I think just a tool box can fix it!!! Have you already tried v11a?
I think we have different motherboard from the other 3d phones. I want to try p925 roms. Who has p925 roms?? Help us...

is everyone who's having the battery issue have a p925 and we install firmware from p920?
same problem here :/ battery can't charge :/ my optimus 3D "not for sale" model... original firmware is v08j :/ i try v21a original v21b original but nothing :/

sorry for my english :/

[Q] From T-mobile

I have an SGH-T989, and my friend just got the Skyrocket. I am the resident hacker. Is there anything I should know before bricking his phone? If I shouldn't post this, could a mod just delete this, but please help.
They're the same phone, if you wanted too, you could flash stuff from your phone, and it would work fine.
But no, nothing important other then don't touch the bootloaders.
Cool thanks. Yeah, I was just worried that I would break my friends phone. That would suck.

What about a custom rom, something like Juggernaut?
Sent From The Best Phone of 2011
There is a T-Mobile conversion zip in the skyrocket Dev section that allows us to run T-Mobile Tom's. Flash the T-Mobile zip. Then flash the conversion kit. Reboot. I haven't personally tried it but there are a lot of folks on here that have. Hope that helps. Here is the link.

Make sure you read first. There's some conversion stuff that needs to happen.

Hardly. Most ROM's don't flash modem's, so that's fine.
All he needs to do is flash a kernel (to fix the auto-rotation), and change the gps.conf to play nice with AT&T's LTE.
Thanks everybody, I just want to be careful, it being not my phone and all.

[Q] Any guides for stock Rom on LG p720h?

Hi there, just got a brand new LG Optimus 3D Max (p720h) and was lurking around to find out if I can remove my carrier's customs. I learned to root my device and uninstall some customizations using various tools around the market and forums like this.
I'm still struggling with some customizations like for example the boot image and categories within the app list, I think all my problems would be solved if I used a stock ROM, problem is that I can't find really any good guides for this device, I was able to find something on p920 but I'm not sure that would work:
tool here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=27004883
KDZ here: http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=10 (very sloooow download)
So I want to know if I could use those tools and kdz files I found or if there's another specific guide for my device.
Offtopic questions:
1. I heard Icecream Sandwich upgrade is planned for my device, is that true? Any news on that?
2. Would p920 cases fit my p720? Specifically talking about those wallet-like cases.

[Q] LG Optimus P920 semi bricked

Hi Guys,
I´ve been reading for days and trying all the different approaches described here,
Phone will boot, but modem part won´t work, I have tried CM10, JellyBam, PACMan, NOTHING works,
I can´t flash from my computer since the flash-program can´t find the phone, Windows 7 can find it and copy files to the SD Card.
Many of the posts here leads to files on servers where file is not available anymore. Difficult when ½ of the files needed are impossible to get.
Please help me instead af directing me to the FAQ, i have really done everything to get the phone to work.
If someone can help me to get the original ROM on it i would be really grateful..

Follow this guide it "Will" get you back on gingerbread.
If it doesn't then you must have done something wrong or you have hardware damage.
Edit : The files are there , I just checked.

It will cost a fortune in freight, furthermore it is not mine, it is my brothers but it seems like it works for now. It is running CM10 nightly.
Don´t think it will be good but it works for now.
it will be just fine..
Get used to the recovery procedures and it will last until its hardware trully dies

Toronto, Canada and Rogers. btw maybe its a dumb question but would that matter that i have an LTE sim card in it?
And i feel honored that you, who made this even possible is helping me out
A lot of Canadians these days asking for ICS how to work and rt here's a thread from another guy who is also using rogers.
I suggest you have a look at his thread I think its the one that says something like official ICS for p925g. I m sure you guys will find a baseband which will work and also another fellow Canadian is using ICS just fine.. Hope I helped.

I have the p925g on Rogers, here in Brantford.
I have ICS running on it, and am going to try out CM10 soon, just monitoring the ROMS to see which will be best.
I offer to take a look remotely via Teamviewer to help you out to see why LG Flashtool won't work. The SmartFlash tool will NOT work properly that I have seen, and I tried many times, finally LG tool got my phone working properly.
If you want my help, PM me, and we can connect up via the IM of your choice, MSN, etc.
Keep in mind, that going to ICS or CM10, your phone will not work "properly" but it will be nearly proper. 3D has issues in ICS, doesn't work in CM10.
Finally I made it working idk y the flashtool didn't work till now but I tried it again and again and made it work finally.. with that it took less than 2mins to do it new year and a sort of new phone finally!! flashed V18a btw so far working good I'm able to make and receive calls yaaay
