Hi there!
I have some problems with my P920 and I don't really know, what to do. I started with stock Android 2.3.5. I rooted the phone, installed CWM5 and JellyBam. This ROM was extremely laggy/buggy, so I installed CM10.1 (+Bootloader), which ran really smooth. As I wanted to have the 3D capability, I installed the stock ICS ROM, which was extremely laggy, too. Now I downloaded XBSA ICS V8 and installed this kernel. I was happy to get a good performance, but 3D, too. Now the phone still is extremely laggy. I guess, I did one wrong thing, that makes all the ROMs run really bad. Do you have any suggestions?
Second, I would like to get some hints, which 3D-ROM is the fastest in games. I would prefer JB ROMs before ICS, but would also accept missing features, as I e.g. don't need mobile internet connection, tethering, bluetooth.
I hope, you are willing and able to give me one or two advices
Thanks in advance!

I installed stock ICS and XBSA a few more times, but i still have those performance issues. Doesn't anyone have a clue?
One thing is certain: If you want 3D capabilities, you'll have to stick to android 4.0.4
About the performance issues, I'm on stock ics rom (v30a) and Acura's last Kernel (subito v2) and everything is really smooth.
Maybe you should try a clean install of stock ics, i mean flashing the v30a or v30b kdz file. That should clean up any errors/bugs that you currently have.
Also, you can try Acura´s kernel. This one that I'm using has one small bug, the conversation volume during calls is a little low, but everything runs really smooth, just perfect. I can even afford to reduce the maximum cpu speed to 900 MHz, without feeling the phone slower.
One other thing, I'm using Atom Launcher (the one used by xbsall's custom roms), and it's also lighter and smoother than the stock lg launcher.
Thanks for the reply
Where can I download the v30b KDZ? I only have a prerooted v30a ZIP. Until now I couldn't use KDZ files as my phone isn't recognised under win8 although I installed all the drivers as mentioned in the XBSA-Noobs-Guide.
Use LG Mobile Support Tool and update to latest v30a rom(EU) or v30b(USA).
After that use OS_Hackings AIO tool and flash ics bootloaders and custom recovery.
After that root and you're done.
There are many tuts on this forum to follow..
Edit:
Use this tool:

If you live in Europe, you should flash the V30A kdz.
Download it from here:
http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=2
If your country has a v30a kdz, download it. If not, download "Europe Open".
Use V30B only if you live in USA or in other american country.
I downloaded the EU open v30a.kdz (germany has none?! ). I started the FlashTool, which installed the USB driver and downloaded the official v21e.kdz. But my PC always gets a bluescreen when the phone boots into fasttboot mode.
Is there a way to flash my v30A.kdz by hand?

Not necessarily..
I am using v30b in Europe for a long time as you can also see from my signature but yeah its better to use V30a if someone is in Europe and doesnt want to mess with apn settings.

Don't do that, that would flash 21e (gingerbread).
There's somewhere in the forum a offline installer for kdzs that will allow you to flash the v30a (ics).
I don't have the link here, search it in forum.

If you can't get it to work, start over.
This time UNINSTALL ALL LG DRIVERS and PAUSE OR EXIT YOUR ANTIVIRUS.
That's very important.
But as I can see your problem is with that www folder..
You'll figure it out eventually.

It finally worked. I tried the Flashing Tool on my Laptop (Win8 x64) and could immediately flash the v28_Large Rom+Baseband. After that I flashed XBSA ICS v8 via Recovery. Everything works fine except one problem:
I got a new SIM-card today (first time mobile Internet for me). I am able to call my friends (1&1 Germany), but I can't get the mobile Internet to work properly. Is this caused by the baseband or by settings? (enabled everything about mobile data/roaming)

So there have been a spate of people bricking their O3Ds lately... this is the last ditch method to recover your phone if you can't boot into Android, or CWM. No guarantees, but should work so long as your phone is still detected.
Download SmartFlash, then the corresponding packages for your phone:
---P920---
Baseband: http://d-h.st/xci
Baseband Mirror: http://goo.gl/yDnjP
Rom: http://d-h.st/WTE
Rom Mirror: http://goo.gl/UfG85
---P925---
Baseband: http://d-h.st/EBF
Baseband Mirror: http://goo.gl/mdLBn
Rom: http://d-h.st/gTO
Rom Mirror: http://goo.gl/auYkj
Extract smartflash.zip, install both driver packages. Then, run Windows Enabler, in the notifications bar, click it and make sure it is set to 'on'.
If you downloaded the rom from my dev-host link, unzip the .bin file.
Now remove your phone's battery and sim card, press volume up and connect your phone to the computer. Hold volume up until it is detected by the computer. It should take no longer than 20 seconds.
Now run B_SmartFlashTool_Extern.exe, go to rom copy d/l, select LGP920_CP.fls or LGP925_CP.fls for CP bin and LGP920_AP.bin or LGP925_AP.bin for AP bin, depending on your phone model. Make sure under communications setup that your phone is connected (verify the com port in device manager) and then click start. If all goes well, you'll have a working phone on v21E (P920) or v20P (P925) stock

Thanks for the links! However your P925 V20P baseband link is down. Can we get a mirror?
There was this one already, I used this method countless times. It's basically the same thing, but uses LG flashing software and kdz files, which are easier to find, download and flash. You can also use the marwin one with windows enabler and the hosts file tweak (that's what I use on a win7 x64 machine). I can't get why it hasn't been stickied or something...

Yes I know of that one, however it requires you to download so many pieces of software and block LG in the hosts file. This also works on all windows based systems and does not require just XP. Furthermore, if you're phone is bricked, Marwin wont work if your phone is bricked as your phone needs to be turned on and within Android. This is the simpler method to recover your phone without too much fuss.

Actually it does, just last night I used Marwin to flash the phone while it was in emergency mode, download mode (as I knew it when I had the LG gt540) or whatever it's called (volume up, plugged in, detected as a modem). It's not the first time either.
As for which option is simpler, I guess I have to try smartflash, because I don't know why i had this idea that it's a complicated and unstable piece of software
hey thanks!
could you re-up the smartflash link. she's not working! much love
nor is the p925 rom.
thanks

You can't format user data or the /data partition?
In any case, try flashing CWM and see if its able to wipe the partition for you.

Not sure, but this baseband or smartflash method is not working for me. I can't connect to the mobile network.

Just flashed the bin with LGFlashTool and this time everything works as expected, so it seems that smartflash is not doing a great job. Maybe it's not catching some errors? LGFlashTool wouldn't flash the files if they were stored on the network, but smartflash never complained.
Getril still says RIL/baseband don't match, but this time the baseband shows as LGP920AT-00-V21e

Im having the same issue. My cel is a Galaxy Fit GT S5670L notice that the L is for latin america. i previously bricked another same phone because i didn't read the warning about using ROM MANAGER on this phone... but back to my issue i bought another one cheap and lightly used. so i decided to install a custom rom from here. First i updated the 2.2 Froyo to 2.3.6 Gingerbread with ODIN, everything fine till there. Then installed the clockwork recovery 5 with ODIN too, and finally the ROM wich i decided to install the Cyanogenmod-7.2-Stable-GBSV4XDA-FVT, pretty cool rom BTW. Everything is working PERFECT with the rom EXCEPT that it is not working with my provider... the first hours after the installation was working perfect the after a few hours everybody was saying that they called me and just voicemail no ring at all... i looked at my phone and the signal was OK, Provider name and everything good but nothing. Then i tried this switched to Plane Mode On and Off to disconnect any connection and worked for a few minutes and the problem started again...
So i decided to try another ROM i decided for the Cyanogenmod_avibidz_v1.0 and like the last ROM everything worked fine for a few hours and the same issue again exactly the same.
So i got sick of it so i decided to switch back the stock ROM that thank god i found on the web but now the BIG ISSUE,,, i CONNECT the phone to the PC and says USB DEVICE NOT RECOGNIZED... so i was like WTF!!
I hope you experts could help me find the issue plz i miss my phone... Thanks in advance

To flash baseband you need the .fls file only.
No modified cable needed. also, LG Flashtool will show "FAIL"after about 89 seconds. this is normal. Just disconnect then and reboot!
all the best.

It always worked for me and definitely works for flashing the stock ICS v28b no matter your Windows version.
Perform a factory reset and it will work...

i've tried that and it doesn't seem to work. I've tried the methods to flash the KDZ but when the LG update program runs it always seems to download another update rather than use the V28B KDZ. Im at my wits end with this phone!
I say you try flashing the KDZ, but you're not guaranteed to get network working as I currently wasn't able to get mine working but everyone else seems to be doing fine by flashing the KDZ. I requested help, but no one has replied.
Remove all LG drivers and all LG software and start from scratch. I've done it through Windows 7 many times in the past and yesterday tried on Windows 8, with a few issues here and there, I finally got it. If you need help or get stuck just P.M. me so I can run you through it. Maybe the KDZ will work for you even though it didn't work for me.
The easiest way of course is to use LG flash tool on XP and you'll get rid of any problem
just follow this instruction
so many questions like this already in this thread.. and really got sicked of it.
please,just do a read..

It's 2013 and many people have strayed away from using an old OS like XP, suggesting to use it is not any help to anyone.
If you're sick of it don't come around. I've had my share of issues where quite a few people have helped me around here. That's what the community is for. I've personally read and followed everything to the dot, and still I don't have any network just like the OP. If the answer's around here then lead me to it, because I must not be reading correctly.

If the LG update downloads another update instead of using the v28b.kdz then you've probably didn't setup the http server and the hosts file correctly.
Check the link to the guide I posted on the first page and make sure you follow all its steps.
to everybody who is trying to help resolve this issue it is very much appreciated. Nobody likes to run into problems when flashing etc but like one of the other members posted thats what this community is for. I might try get hold of a machine or laptop running XP or create a partition and install it on my laptop and see if thats work but before i do that i will give the server method a try again from the beginning and see if that works. Thanks people and i'll report back on what i do and if it works
look at link in my post before. work for win7 too
just download xbsall rooted v28b zip and flash with lg flash tool and if your on windows 7 make sure you run lg flash tool in xp sp3 compataility mode it should work for you then.
here is the link for downloads read carefully before flashing http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1963847

all stuff done, perfect =)
make a backup from your phone and reflash it with lg flash tool. But you have to switch the port to 41 in the Modem Device under the device manager

hey just found a trick i used against ipods. i put the ipsw in the temp folder that itunes stores the downloaded file when we simply hit restore. so in the LG i am thinking to manually download the ics v30b file and put it there, so that it instantly jump to upgrading the OS to ics. what's my odd of losing it all!?

Merhaba! and hey most people tend to fail to flash this stuff correctly and the worst part is losing the imei which needs 'sl-box' to fix which is way unavailable to me.

Restoring IMEI
1.Connect phone by USB
2.Activate USB debug mode

the number part up to 4 the phone doesnt recognize the code and let me get into what ever is the setting! does it need a better android like gb or better. if it doenst let me go there i will have to stick with the stupid froyo!
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,
Suhail
