[Q] Problems flashing ICS - LG Optimus 3D

Hi! I am a new XDA-user, and I am having serious trouble to flash my LG 3D P920. I used Xda before to flash my sony xperia x8, but this is by far more difficult for me. I have to say english is not my first language so maybe that's part of the problem. My mobile is new, and has the 2.2 installed (from the package), I want to install ICS (the xsball one) to install darkrom afterwards. I think most of the problem comes from drivers or something. I've tried to flash ICS using smartflashtool and lg flashtool. Smartflashtool doesn't recognise my cellphone, and LG Flashtool asks me for a pass and user. I've been searching a lot on the forums and can't quite get the easier way to do it.
Any help?
Thanks!!

Hello,i have some problems also,my phone cant turn on now....except i use wall charger or usb...but the screen only stuck in a battery charging logo....do u have any solutions?

Well, thanks to berni big help I got it all working. Now I only have a doubt related to Baseband. I think I don't have 3g because I only see an R on the top (not H or 3g or anything) and internet goes slooooow. That looks like a BB problem. I checked with getril and what I see is:
Ril: UNKOWN and a bunch of numbers
Baseband recommended LGP920AT-V21D
and below:
LGP925 V10E
So I don't know wich BB I have.
Any help?

Try after Delete / un-install any previous versions of the LG Drivers before installing the latest drivers.
Also, PC>USB Modem > Disable...
According to me u should leave baseband fix and use gtr rom its far better than blur and if u have a baseband problem in gtr just open up the terminal emulator and give the command 'su' then press enter and then 'fixbb' or maybe this command may work on blur too......
OK so anyone know how to install cm9 ICS 4.0 on LG P505 V20F .35. Ive tried everything. Either have network and data with color banding or OK color with no network or data.:banghead:

Go to the LG website and download the usb driver's
maybe you're on the new baseband already.. is'nt it try to flash rom again, then flash new baseband
If you're really having problems, just flash the stock lg gingerbread rom, it will update your baseband.

From 2.2 to 2.3 Problems (wifi) n (pin)

hello recently i update from 2,2, to 2.3 with kdz files ( i tried V21E V21A and v21d )
and accrued 2 problems 1st problem was wifi reception was really badly sometimes could not connect even at a very close distance
then i tried to flash some roms both thaiz and acura and some more i found
the roms was for GB baseband ( i had a 2.3 baseband since i update with kdz files ) so when i flash a rom with clockworkmod
the phone opens and did not ask for pin number and could not connect to operator and said something like organizing bla bla
any ideas ??
so i downgrade to 2.2 baseband ( latest v10k ) and flash a acura rom for 2.2 baseband and works like a charm
any ideas guys ? for 2.3 updates
no one has this problem ??
any helo guys ??

thanks for the reply but i already used it
i believe my phone is not Greek but German or something else from EUrope
in the past was a site from official LG where at the end of the link you put your EMEI and it tells you from where is your phone
unfortunately the link in not working either the site where downloading kdz files
so i think i have to try something like open europe kdz or not know
by now i have flashed the basebands kdz over 10 times with not luck
Send me an im and tell me your imei no need to be talking from here in english , I will tell you what to do

ok i will send you private message to talk in mother language
thanks for helping me
and if any success i will post here and hopefully can help other members with the same problem
No success at all
i flashed almost every kdz for GB
also i tried to flash bin files (same problem) (f*** wifi)
the pin problems are not more but wifi problem still exists
i also tried the official method through lg but same problem
i guess i have to stuck to Froyo
but i also guess that i am going to get rid of this phone and never again buy Lg phone
my next will be for sure galaxy s2 or s3 maybe
hello guys i have an update so i though i could share with you
yesterday i communicate with a guy having the same problem with me
and told me with ics problem solved
so i guess i will flash ics besides some known bugs

[Q] Need help with an Optimus 3D

Hey guys i just bought an Optimus 3D from a friend . He changed stock ROM with an JellyBam 3.2.0. My question is : How can i get it back and use 3D mode , or what ROM is easy to install which supports 3D an all his stuff . My baseband is V21a (don't know very much about this) . If there are anyone who can tell me exactly what steps and which custom ROM i need to use please help me. I got stuck in so much threads didnt understood too much. Thanks
AW: [Q] Need help with an Optimus 3D
First of all, you need to know wich rom you want, because if you want to go back to gb you have to do other steps then if you want to go on ics... if you want 3d and everything try to flash ics, maybe darkroom ones or xbsas rom.

i've read xbsas's guide but i'm not sure what i need to do. I need to inverse 2 pins on usb cable or something like that , i dont know how to change baseband and stuff , seems preety hard, atm i have jellybam 3.2.0 , was the only one where camera works . In other roms camera was freezing. Anyway if there is an easier way to install that ICS let me know . Thanks again
AW: [Q] Need help with an Optimus 3D
Yes, its very easy, you dont have tpo cross any cable, you have to flash two files via smartflash. Camera is working on ported ics, im using darkrooms rom and so far i dont have problems.
I will search the right thred you need and post it here.
Edit: this is the first step you have to do, the files you need to flash bin and fls is in xbsas thred for first ported rom
This one is for smartflash:

Edit2: and this thred are for needed files and there are many guides too

This is very usefull , thanks man ,, i have 1 more question. Do i need to change baseband first then to flash ROM via smartflash?
And what about darkrooms rom , he has any bugs or stuff? if you have no problems with it i should consider flashing that one
AW: [Q] Need help with an Optimus 3D
Yes you can flash darkroom ones i have no issus so far, everything works great and i use it 2 weeks now. You can flash darkrooms one bit first you need to flash the first ported rom. Then root it and then you can flash darkrooms. At least flash baseband. You can flash basebsnd after you flash ported it doesnt matter
For more questions you can ask me

So i dont need to change baseband first or something like this . Just like i said mine is V21a. So it should work right w/o problems right? And other thing: i use win7 . I might have problems with drivers ?
AW: [Q] Need help with an Optimus 3D
No, with drivers no problem and whnen you flash the new ported rom, your baseband will be overflashed with another baseband, because when you flash ported rom you flash two files bin and fls, try this baseband when everything works is goid if not change baseband its the same thing like flashing the bin and the fls file but this time you add only fls file you will understand this betterwhen you tried to flash ported rom first time

Omap is the right one, if you had installed omap, then everything is right. In the next step you have to change comport from omapdriver.

so i dont need to get other drivers. in ports i cannot find that lge thing where i 'm suposed to change port to 41 like in pic
AW: [Q] Need help with an Optimus 3D
Ok pay attention, when you installed the driver, put out battery from your smartphone, and everything else. Afzer that, connect usbcable with your pc ( not with your o3d) only woth pc. Then connect it with your o3d and hold vol up button in the time you connect your smartphone. DONT RELESE THE VOL UP BUTTON IN THIS PROCESS. Your pc do a sound that the phone is connected, then it does the sound that it is disconnected, when your pc made the 3rd sound that you smartphone is connected put fast the battery in your phone, DONT RELESE THE VOL UP. wait until you get sw mode on screen. After that you can configure the port 41 in device manager. I made a pic for you..

i cant install another bootloader, i have rooted the phone and recoverd it from some " brick"
i struggled to get another rom on it and the only rom i got to run was the CM7,
but after i downloaded a flash app in the market i could flash the bios with bluecernel
so i can install and run the new roms. but now to the problem,
When i install the newer roms 4.0.+ i cant get the network signal, i know it is a common problem but the problem is that my phone cant be in the "bootlader mode" i have tried to reboot phone to the bootlader and i only come to the cwmd recoery menu,
i have also tried the al in one tool that is here on the forum, then i come in to fastboot but nothing happens when i should install the new bootloader.
i have struggled wit this issue for 4 week now
so is there any one that haw anny clue.?

Here is a thred how you can recover your imei

No sim network

Could do with some help after doing restore via LG mobile support tool.
UK p920 that was bought second hand and unlocked to all networks I am using a T-mobile[ UK] sim card
I updated from froyo to 2.3.5 gingerbread 2 weeks ago using LG mobile support tool. The sim card was in at the time.
update successful and then rooted phone all ok. Tried doing backup of current rom with rom manager and failed. also tried orange, and rom manager,none would backup anything. tried flashing rom and bricked phone!could not even get into a boot recovery. Last resort I used LG mobile support tool to download and auto re-install 2.3.5 (without sim card in) didnt think this would affect anything. Phone booted up and all is ok, did a titanium restore of apps and settings all ok, but cannot get the phone to connect to sim network-tmobile.
Current config; model number LG-P920
android version 2.3.5
baseboard version L6260_modem_sic_01.1042.00
kernel version 2.635.7+
build number GRJ90
software version LGP920-V21e-APR 19 2012
Has the recovery loaded the correct version for my phone?
I am a noob so please reply using basic language and instructions, thanks for reading.
AW: No sim network
Have you changed baseband ? Normally it is a baseband problem.
The rom must suit with the right baseband.
And watch if you have imei.
EDIT: are you on stock 2.3.5?

Everything is stock 2.3.5 used LGmobile support tool which is a recovery tool as well. Had to use this method as rom manager decided to kill phone as described in original message.The update tool did find my imei number as it did when I upgraded using the same tool from froyo to gingerbread.
