I`m on gingerbread now and i want to use smartflash tool to flash ICS and vice versa! installed lg drivers, installed OMAP drivers and everything needed. How come that every time i come across smartflash procedure, it only says flash .bin file and that`s it. Sort of! Why not .fls file too? It is baseband, right? So i`ts important. ICS is different partition and bootloader and i just don`t think that flashing .bin file is enough. And also, is it a problem that on smartflash says P990 in phone model and can`t be changed?? I had P990 before this phone and smartflash is not unknown to me. I know how to use it but i`m just very confused about p920 and smartflash combo!
AW: [Q] Can someone PLEASE explain...
Flash kdz file its the easiest and best way. In this section is an easy tutorial for that.

I must disagree! ) Smartflash is way easier, only if i could figure it out how to use it with this model or someone who already flashed 3D with smartflash to explain a bit how to! Nonetheless I use win 7 x64 and most procedures are for XP, and those few that work in win7 are way complicated for my degree of expertise! I used to perform miracles with p990 but this one is with no reason far more complicated

I used to think this stuff was hard until I asked around and got help. It's a piece of cake flashing KDZ's. Windows 7 procedures are almost identical to the XP procedures. The only difference is that you have to go directly to the Device Manager to install OMAP drivers rather than getting a pop-up and installing it from there. The hassle is Windows 8, that took me a few hours to figure out because it checks driver signatures.
From what I read, .bin file INCLUDES .fls file. So flashing bin will give you new baseband.
You can check your current baseband with app GetRIL (use it only for checking!).
Flashing fls is needed only when you mismatch ROM and baseband - in Canada the best results are with v20c bb. So then that fls should be flashed after bin file.
Hope it helped

I see your point, but what i really want to know is, is there a difference between .bin for p920 and lets say .bin for p990!? Sounds weird, offcourse there`s difference , but i`m asking just because when i was flashing p990, it`s necessary to put both bin and fls to smartflash and then start it up!
For example, this is what comes out from unpacking v28b.kdz file for p920
http://img32.imageshack.us/img32/8830/35283994.png
So there is fls file after all... And that is what confuses me the most! So.. what i really need is for someone who already flashed this phone with smartflash to give me step by step instructions, with no exceptions from ABC~Z. I would really be grateful besause i don`t want to install XP every time new SW comes out.

Unfortunately the only procedure i`m familiar with for flashing kdz`s won`t work in win7 x64! For me at least. It crashes every time on the beginning of extraction of kdz. Luckily not later But i know for sure it works in xp and as i said before once, i`m not gonna install xp just for flashing my phone. So i need a little (detailed ) help with smartflash. :angel:

So, did you try flashing 920 bin file with LG SmartFlash?
I did it on Win7 x64, no XP needed
Did you check drastic00 guide? It simple once you do it couple times
It's really hard to give EXACT step by step instructions since nobody kbows what you already have on your PC (driver wise
So every guide starts with: uninstall ALL LG related drivers...
Please read the guide THREE times (I learned it loong time ago).
Then ask questions, if needed.
Good luck!
PS. I've never dealt with P990, sorry.

I didn`t flash anything yet because i`m not sure. I only want simple procedure so i can restore my phone if something is wrong with it, and this smartflash situation is driving me crazy! A can`t dare to use it and flash, honestly, because no one actually gave me green lite that it`s safe enough.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCHRwKGTZTk
Can i get confirmation for the same procedure for p920? I REALLY don`t want to brick my phone since already i`m having trouble figuring out how to flash sw and not be able to recover it in that case. The only difference is the way to put phone in to download mode! And the fact that it says p920 in model line confuses me even more! Is it safe???

So i can use both bin and fls in the process? The guy in the video used them at the same time so i guess it`s ok for this phone too because i read somewhere that they flash separately!? First bin, then restart and then fls! What`s the difference? And one more thing... In another video, guy also used smartflash but this time he was actually flashing p920 and he used something called windows enabler! What is that and is it necessary for process? Here`s video link...

Would this lock my phone to Rogers? Or would it remain unlocked? I'm curious because it doesn't work well in canada right now and I'm with telus. I have a p500 that locks onto the Mikes tower just south of where I live. The p920 doesn't do it as well. I'm on v21e Right now and need to change it. Thanks
I used to flash Gingerbread files with smartflash all the time, however it never flashed the baseband correctly for me so I would use LG flash tool to flash .fls files. That being said I have only flashed V28B and V30B files with LG flash tool because I thought I read somewhere that smartflash wouldn't work...maybe because it doesn't do the baseband correctly and the baseband for ICS is included in the bin file. Either way flashtool and smartflash were easiest for me, I find it much harder personally to do the KDZ method. I did something way wrong in the early days of the KDZ flash method that had some shttp server file that completely crippled my internet and I've never got my cpu to connect since. I use to just extract and merge the bin and fls files from my KDZs with LG Extract lol.

I'm not 100% sure but I think xbsa ROM is carrier unlocked, but I can't test it...
In Canada baseand v20c gives good results. Also with latest ROM based on v28b I use v30b baseband.
Try couple of them.

What exactly do u mean by this!? What happened and how did u noticed it?
edit:/ Just flashed v30A with smartflash and i used windows enabler (what ever it is for), and the weirdest thing is that after restart, all my applications and settings remained unchanged and only thing that is different is software information in settings! Oh, and camera shutter sound OFF is gone too. That sucks! I used to flash p990 with smartflash and every time phone goes back to factory state after restart because it is flashed again, right!! But now it`s just like i updated it via LG Support Tool. Just updated. Don`t really understand! I used both bin and fls files in process.

Hi,
after being a lurker I finally made an account to ask for help with a problem I can't solve.
I flashed my P500 with the latest 7th build of the CM10 by Rashed97 from stock 2.2.2 with V10a badeband.
All wipes done etc. flash went well.
Only problem, the phone didn't detect any SIM cards, detected no GSM.
I went on looking at all the ways to flash baseband and fix it. In the end I failed, tried LGMDP got errors, tried the fix provided by some of the users but the baseband stays "unknown" (not sure if was like that b4 fix, so I recovered to 2.2.2 and gonna do it again).
I'm asking for some advice, just how am I supposed to handle it this time so in the end I get a functioning phone.
Should i update baseband first, then flash ROM?
Cheers, looking forward to your replies.
First link in my signature below. Try flashing that.
If didnt work, unzip it and place it in /system/lib and set permissions right.
Same as other lib's permissions.

I used the fix already, didn't work. Tho i didn't figure out how to get it into /system/lib (where do I find that directory?). You mentioned in an earlier post, that one has to use root explorer, as in an APP?
Or maybe I'm supposed to flash the fix while I'm still on stock 2.2.2?
EDIT: Ugh, I'm tired and my posts are quite bad, but I got some news.
Baseband turns to unknown right after flashing ROM (flashed gapps also). So I'm gonna try that method of yours with putting the fix into /system/lib , I'm off to figure out how it's done....
EDIT2: Copied and overwrote the files from system/lib but where do the META - INF folder go?
Meta-Info folders are for recoveries not for us
No need to extract them.
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
Sadly, even extracting the fix and putting the files manually into system/lib doesn't fix my problem ( I even checked the permissions).
Maybe I should just try updating the baseband first on 2.2.2 and then flash the CM10 ROM?

So I updated my ROM and baseband with G Mobile Support Tool.
Right now I got stock 2.3.3 with V20c on my P500. I guess I'll make a recovery of this and start flashing the CM10 again.
EDIT: Now this is bat**** crazy. After getting stock 2.3.3 had to fight to root it (finally managed with Onec Click Root). Now when I got my superuser I can't even go into recovery. Holding home + vol up + power makes a factory reset instead (superuser stays, other app like rom manager, quickboot and settings get deleted). So wth?
I think I'll try reflashing recovery with rom manager (after i once again dl it).
Victory!
:laugh:
Finally I managed to get it to work.
After updating to stock 2.3.3 I already had the right baseband, so then I just had to reflash recovery (which fixed the issue of going into recovery mode) and finally reflash the whole CM10 ROM.
Got greeted by phone asking for PIN, GSM works with full bars and now I can sit back and enjoy the smoothness of JB Android.
I'd like to thank all the people who answered my posts, gave me advice and tried to help.
I really, really needed this :victory: because changing to P500 with 4.1.2 is a really great upgrade from my GT540.
That's both for soft and hardware (finally multi-touch, Donkey Kong Adventure on SNESOID, here I come).
Rock on guys! :highfive:

The Lg LU6200 is a much different phone from ours and probably has a much different solution to your problem, I would recommend you ask on the forum for that phone. The nitro HD is a very similar phone, and there is a development subforum for your phone in the nitro hd's forum so there is probably a solution somewhere on there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1445

Hi! I'm not new to android modding, but with this phone (the 3D) I founded some difficult. There is some confusion in my mind about the baseband,ROM etc... Now I run CM7.2 with baseband v21d, but before I try to install CM10,but I encounter some problem:
1) My phone, like happened to others users, works properly without SIM, but when I put it inside the phone, and then PowerOn the device, it stuck after about 30 sec and then reboot.
2) I bricked my P920 trying to come back to GB stock (there are too many guides about it,and maybe I forgot something...). However, now my P920 is like new because I havd warranty and my store repaired it.
The question now is this:
I install CM10 on baseband v21e and v21d...but the result was the same: reboot with SIM.
What can I do to have CM10 on my wonderful P920? thx for the attention :good:

Download the latest nightly and gapps. (There are links everywhere.)
Flash v28 baseband (There are links everywhere.)
Flash your CM10 rom.
Flash Gapps.
You're good to go.
No SIM problems here.
No problem with V21D and V21E here. *knocks on wood* However, I recommend flashing wpark's v1.25a bootloader (or BIOS - same thing) as it forces any modem firmware to stand up - V21D as a minimum - just go with V28A if you want the fast way out of SIM issues on original bootloader (or wpark's).

You can install cm10,gapps and wkpark's bootloader now. That's the easiest way now. Besides that thing is actually nearly unbrickable there is a good chance you could have repaired it by yourself. But let's not talk about the past. Try, it should work.

I never really paid any attention to it but I lost all my files when I formated my computer last night; is there any difference between flashing with the LGP920.dll or the LGP925.dll file when flashing? Just not gonna hunt down a P925 if they do the exact same thing.
Sent from my LG-P925 using xda premium
Big difference. In fact each of the DLL contains modem sign-in keys for to allow the modem firmware (CP) update. However Android OS (AP) image doesn't matter for those keys - whichever just simply serves to provide the partition information. But, KDZ already contain the DLL inside anyhow. So if you are updating the baseband, use the DLL as indicated by the model ID on IMEI / FCC ID sticker under battery. Even the tool won't update the modem baseband with KDZ containing wrong DLL. I found out the hard way.
Sent from my LG-P920 using XDA
Thanks man That makes since. Well I wonder what's been going on in my phone because I have never had luck flashing kdz's. I had gotten ahold of a shttp (cant remember exact name. It was the lil file that blocks LG servers) that decimated my network; thus why I formatted my cpu last night. Anyways I use LGExtract to turn Kdzs into bin and fls files. I literally just flashed P925_V30B_00_CP.flsbase and with LGP920_11062.dll......Reason being cause I flashed back my bigpartion 28B. It didn't block me so any clue of there being something wrong that I can't see?
Sent from my LG-P925 using xda premium
Well, if that works, that's fine but CyanogenMod is rather fussy; it can actually read the modem firmware ID, as you can see in the attached picture - I had to flash V21D baseband into my phone so I can have Internet on CM10 ROM. You can check it out with Getril - if unsure, you can take screenshot (power + home or power + volume down - the snapshot's in /pictures/screenshots but save the picture as JPEG first so you can post it here).
Also, about LG flash tool, if you used wrong DLL, the utility will simply hang, whichever it just refuse to flash the updated baseband firmware.
Sent from my LG-P920 using XDA
Yeah I just use flash tool 1.1 it flashes base and to 27% on ics basebands and then of course fails but says download success
Sent from my LG-P925 using xda premium
25-27% is enough to guarantee successful modem firmware update. The reason the LG flash tool failed is because it was looking for Android image AP bin, just disregard this one. I have done the same thing - just CP fls file. V30B - that's a successful flash, as you flashed V30B baseband.

Cool I thought so but thanks for the re assurance :thumbup: I still find it odd myself that i unpackaged the wdb file with a p925 .dll bit turned around and flashed it with a p920. I honestly thought it would throw me a warning at me. Oh well thanks mate.

There a thing i don't understand i wanted to flash p920 v30a ics downloaded from lg server and having only kdz i've extracted it with lg extract to flash with lg flashtool and so i wanted use the LGP920.dll extracted from it since seems to be more recent (version 1.0.0.5) but when i have opened it in lg flashtool it says SU660 dll and i couldn't start flash. Why this while it come from the true p920 rom?? it's strange, isn't it?
Well, I tried flashing P920 KDZ onto my LG Thrill 4G - of course, it installed just fine BUT the modem firmware remained the same all through the entire episodes only to be eventually noticed in CM10 - it wasn't flashed with P920 modem firmware but rather the same Froyo baseband, P925-V10B. It was eventually traced back to the type of DLL used due to modem sign-in keys.
So try the DLL specifically made for the phone and then flash the extracted AP and CP binary files with LG Flash tool, it will work this time.
P.S. Be careful - only three models of firmware is supported via any of those phones; P920, P925 and SU760. And if the KDZ is for P920, replace the SU660 DLL with P92x DLL. I have come across that mysterious DLL once.

Hi, this is my first post on this forum so I hope that I post this in the right place.
My problem is that my phone keeps rebooting when I use ICS and I can't use any Rom under ICS, not even official, it just shows the LG logo for 1 second and turns off.
When I use ICS rom then I can use the phone but it uses to freeze and reboot very often. Sometimes every 10 seconds and sometimes I can use my phone for 5 minutes and then it reboots.
Also, sometimes after reboot it will show me a black screen that says the kernel crashed.
I don't know what is wrong... Only ice cream sandwich works and still with these annoying reboots. Also after reboot the screen will look broken (green and green pixels all over screen) and then it gets normal.
Please help me, I've been trying to fix my phone for some months now... I'm bout to throw it in the wall soon :banghead:
Tell me if you need any more info.
Also want to add that it is impossible to root my LG O3D.. The only way was to find a ics Rom with root. I tried JellyBam but couldn't turn on.
Please give some advice what I can do, thanks in advance.

Sounds maybe like unstable system from bad flash, possibly from incomplete driver install. This way works for me

Okay thanks for your reply, I will try that when I wake up zZzzZ
Edit: Followed every step, after installing the Rom from TWRP and rebooting system, then I got stuck at LG logo.
Maybe I need to do something with the kernel? Maybe I somehow installed wrong kernel without knowing it? I used XBSA V8 normal partition size. My computer is win7, using winrar, if that could help somehow.
Anyways thanks for your suggestion but I think my p920 belongs in the trash now :/

Glad someone knows what is the problem.

And I have already tried following that unbtick tutorial and it's the same, keeps rebooting when it wants.

Hardware failure is rare but possible. I still suspect driver issue or a corrupt download from antivirus. But who knows? Hard drives and flash drives fail. The fact it boots at all says to me corrupt system and bad flash or like GrMo said corrupt partitions.

Because LG Update Tool is a troublemaker. Use LG Flash Tool but carefully follow all details

but and screen LG Flash Tool partition size 0 KBbytes
Recheck step 1. It is the most critical to have correct. Check all details carefully.
You must uninstall all leftover LG software from previous update attempt and reboot pc before starting with driver install or there will be software conflicts.

you have a official ICS with Root ?
btw where is now the problem, You have a Blank SDcard ? internal ? or external. Format it, after you flashed your ICS.

my phone LG with os 2.3 and i am upgrade to ics with LG Tool V30A.kdz and success but..why this Internal Storage no detect and notification on status bar blank sdcard......and i am LG flash Tool again with V21 ginger...success...but this problem same...blank sdcard.....
ah ok i understand. Use the LG-FlashTool with bin and fls binarys and the correct ddl for your phone. The Tool will partition your SDcard correctly. You say that you used a offical ROM with ROOT ? No official ROm has root =) Dowload your rom here http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=2 and unzip it with LG binextractor. Flash this via Lg FlashTool.
