Sprint software update - LG G Flex 2

After doing some digging I see there is a new LS996ZV5 update. I am rooted so have not gotten any OTA notifications. Has anyone gotten it and does it help with lag and battery?
My phone seems pretty snappy as is but always want the latest if possible.
Guess one last thing. What are thoughts on timetable of custom recovery and maybe some rooted roms for us Sprint users?
Any discussion welcome!

Got the update OTA this morning (I am stock). Phone is absolutely flying now.
Not sure on battery life yet as it's only been a couple of hours since I updated.

I unrooted and took the system update. It wasn't the new firmware though. Not sure what it was. I tried to have phone look for firmware update afterwards and it didn't show the new one yet.

I'm rooted and received the android system update notification this morning. Should I proceed, or is that a bad idea if rooted?

it won't work while rooted, i've tried, twice. i'm waiting on the update prompt again to try my next thing, but if you want to try it feel free. if you open up superuser and go to the settings there is an option to fully unroot the device, its towards the bottom. After you do that restart and then try and apply the update.
let me know if it works! hopefully i get the update prompt again in the morning and will finally be able to get this thing updated!!!!

So curious as to what this update was. All I know is that today my battery life isn't nearly as good. Normally after working for 8hrs my phone is around 75%... Today it was at 40%... Massive difference and i did nothing out of the ordinary

That sounds like my phone, I've noticed that I Google services is using more battery than the screen recently.

My battery life has actually been really good. I was getting 15-20 hrs before the update and now I am getting 25-30 hours after. (Light use)

My battery seems pretty good also. Plus it does appear the widgets are loading faster and less jumpiness between screens. Rerooted after the update and all seems fine so far

i didn't get prompted with the update again this morning so i wasn't able to try anything to get my phone to update today. if someone hasn't applied the update yet but has the prompt would you be able to grab the update file and post it? i'll do the same if i get the update prompt again and nothing has been posted yet. at least that way we can try stuff without having to wait for it to decide to check for an update since the manual update check doesn't appear to do anything.....

Hmmmm. I guess I'll use GServiceFix app. See if that solves my issues
---------- Post added at 09:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:59 AM ----------
Yeah. Its the android system using the battery. Used this fix app before and it solved my problems. Hopefully its still reliable.

again this morning, no update prompt and the "check for update" function continues to say i'm up to date. because i had issues with my first two i signed up for sprint insurance. if i don't get prompted for the update by monday morning i'll stop in a sprint store and see if i can get it swapped again. only problem with that is chancing getting one that overheats or has a bad screen like my previous two did

i rooted and got the OTG upgrade message, and i try but it show error and said my device is rooted then can't upgrade software. Then i try to use "fully unroot" in supersu, the supersu gone, but the error still shown. do anyone know how to unroot and upgrade? thank you very much!

sorry, you are stuck there are a couple of other threads with further discussion on it but so far no one has been able to get the OTA to apply after they have rooted. some of us have been able to get new devices through sprint with having their insurance and play it off as the OTA won't update. they have had enough issues with the device they don't really question it.

can you post the zv5 ota files here. i need it to save my dead phone

Help! On screen buttons not working!
I really need help. I factory reset my LG G Flex 2 cause I wanted to erased my info and give it as a present to my father for his birthday next october 14 and now the onscreen buttons don't respond, only the back button, nor the multitasking or home button. I turned it off and on, reset it several times, cleared the partition cache or whatever it is called but no luck, mine is running LS996ZV5. It was perfect before the reset. I feel so bad. Thanks in advance for your help.

I had to do the date forward trick to get it to download. It downloaded and installed 100% successful. My phone is stock as the day I bought it. Some people say they have seen "failed" install from being rooted, but it still installs.
Testing, and will report back.

Just set your calendar one day ahead.
I just want to know how this update would effect a rooted phone.... i am currently running SRE 1.3.1c
It seems like anyone with a rooted phone might get an error, but it still installs fine. First impressions is actually really good. The phone feels a little faster. The videos are smoother and so is the gallery. When I opened maps it found my location instantly instead of getting the %waiting for location" message. Accuracy was 1000 meters, but I didn't turn on the GPS.
Also the signal strength and internet speed seems much faster. And stronger for me

Just updated mine. Gps is a lot faster! I can even get a lock when indoors now.
I can no longer access the gps menu through the dialer though.

The OTA update now allows me to go into the three button recovery mode. I couldn't do this before.
Does anyone know if we have an unlocked Captivate on another carrier, will be be getting the update? If not, how does one go about getting it?
Installed fine on my rooted phone gps seems snappy but I can't really test right now. Media scan still taking a while but the phone is less laggy while it's running.
So far so good considering I was ready to ditch this phone yesterday. Temporary rage reduction for me.

Downloading now....
Dropped connection during d/l now I cant get it to d/l at all even after a rommanger restore.
I manually checked for a software update on my rooted Captivate, and after downloading and rebooting, I got a message saying the update was not installed.
Mine isn't even showing an update available. I've set the date forward to tomorrow, the 24th, the 25th, 26th, 27th, none show an update available...grrrr...
Any link to the software other than OTA?
Update not installed but baseband version changed to JH7.
I don't notice any difference on a factory-software phone. GPS still does not work indoors at all. I'll try in my vehicle later.

Same here, on the white screen after installing the update it got to 50% and failed. Check my firmware still says jf6 with 2.6.29 [email protected] #2 kernel
I just went to download it on my sister's phone since hers is still factory stock, unrooted, etc...
Nothing at all. Didn't even download the update. Now I can't check for another 24 hours.

Thunderbolt autoupdated!!

I don't know how this happened but I look over and see my thunderbolt rebooted (happens maybe once every one or two weeks). Not thinking much of it I look away and then look back a moment later to see the update screen! I would have ripped the battery out but I didn't want to risk bricking it.
I have been hitting reject to the update since it was first released and it's never updated on its own! This is a warning to anyone else that has been hitting reject all this time, it seems it somehow is starting the update process on its own now.

Well apparently it can because it has been sitting at my desk at work all day and I haven't touched it. It vibrated and I look over and see the HTC splash screen and then it went to the update logo. If it was just sitting there how else can you explain it?
It rebooted several times and now the data icon is different, mobile hotspot doesn't work, and there is a new Verizon data widget. It updated on its own.
Resistance is futile.
mine updated itself too last night. I plan to reject the update since i still had a working hotspot up too last night. I looked at my phone and the update was already in progress and halfway done.
No i am concidering root but wanted to stay stock. Someone just posted that they were rooted and stock and this automatic update caused their phone to brick.
what update? we haven't had a OTA since early july.

Huh? It's coming Q2, and this is only June 86th.
I can confirm that the phone did "auto-update". I had been hitting reject on every notification for the update (so i could keep using the mobile hotspot). When i woke up this morning (or yesterday morning, i cant remember) - my phone had the new verizon icons, new version number, and mobile hotspot didnt work anymore (prompt to buy $30/month feature).
I'll guess i'll finally have to root and install some ROM.

Yes it does. In fact, I suspect what happens is when the screen/menu pops up with 'accept, reject, or the 3rd option (??)', if you don't respond within a certain time, it defaults to 'accept'.
I think is too much coincidence that more than one person had the same issue the same night. Verizon you !#$% failz!
Same here. Updated this morning right when my alarm was supposed to go off. Luckily the flashing lights woke me, but it was too late as it was already on the update screen and couldn't risk pulling the battery.

I got this from another thread, solution #1 seems to have done it for me...
i got the same problem as everyone else
===
So I plugged in my phone last night and rebooted it, only to find ClockWorkRecovery giving me a warning message saying that some update has failed (details below), and if I tell it to reboot, it will properly enter Android and load all my stuff, but within seconds of loading up properly, the phone FORCE shuts down.
Power Off - Shutting Down, and there is nothing I can do to stop it.
I have the latest CWM 4.0.1.5, i just flashed it. I did a backup just in case, as I don't know what steps to take.
While booting up..the phone will look like its installing something, but then fails.
Press the menu key, CWM opens up and I see the following.
===============
ClockworkMod Recovery 4.0.1.5
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E: failed to verify whole-file signature
E: Signature verification failed
Installation aborted
================
I know Verizon has been bugging me with that firmware update, but I've been denying it every time. There is no way it would have downloaded already, would it? I didn't accept any software updates.
I've tried rebooting phone from cold shutdown, taking memeory card out. I have't restored to previous ROM, or dont any wipes/factory resets. I dont wanna attempt those unless I know what it's going to do.
At this rate, my HTC Thunderbolt is pretty much a brick.
========
UPDATE:
I followed the method 1 steps from the link bastukee posted and its been working so far so good.
i am currently rooted with the old software, is there anyway to update the software but still stay rooted? I dont want to keep seeing these annoying updates.
@blenderben
Mine did EXACTLY the same thing and solution #1 fixed it, the option to clear the cache. I'm going to actually use a non-stock ROM from now on.
yeah i wanna swap to CM7, but isn't it still in alpha?
Verizon auto push update to phone.
How can we stop it?

V10K OTA UK Update available NOW!!!

Ok, apologies if this is old news, but didn't see. But I've just updated my O3D OTA in South London, UK. Not that it would make a difference but I'm T-Mobile in case anyone intereted.
Im having random restarts since update. Anyone else having this problem?

Yes some people complain about restarts like I. I install bootlog uptime and i discover that phone restart every few days, mostly when i'm not watching
I had that problem in the beginning but after a factory reset it stopped doing that.

Mobile Phone Support: We are expecting the Gingerbread version of Android to be available no later than November. The faults that you have experienced isn't a known issue unfortunately, I can only suggest that you continue to check the support tool for upcoming updates.
from lg phone support
I've not noticed any restarts as yet, though only been few hours. Not sure if it makes any difference but the only people I've seen reporting this prob are those who updated manually.
Would be nice if LG listed a change log, obviously there is the 3D converter, which is cool but I'm not sure it's as good as the native stuff as people suggest, though need to play with more. I was actually getting happy with my battery on V10D, so will see how this compares over a few days,. Other than Flash Player settings not sure if anything else has been added/changed....?

Yes i am having the same problem,i have reinstalled sw twice and its still doing it.
Sent a message to LG about it and they dont want to know about it and blame the problem on the carriers..
I have to say my initial impression of the battery life is negative.
I went to bed with the phone almost fully charged, and as I do every night I disabled internet, wifi, GPS and refreshing and and waking up this morning my battery is 67%, that's really poor considering I was getting about %5 drop before.
Guess I will see what it does during the day, though I'm now worrying it won't last till the work day!

This firmware has problems with Wifi. On an 'n' network, the phone keeps rebooting. On a 'g' network I get some reboots. Turning Wifi off solves the problem, but sometimes it's impossible to turn it back on unless you reboot...
It's a shame because the battery life with this firmware is finally 'normal' for a smartphone: 24 hours vs 7 hours before that.
My wifi is on all the time but is set to switch off when the screen is locked.
I'm not having problem at all with the phone and to be honest it's much better than before.
It seems to be running more smoothly and I can see that the battery management has improved a lot!
I'd say that I'm having the same number of hours that I had with my iPhone 4 doing the same stuff that I usually do before a recharge. So, at least for me the update has been a good thing.
Hopefully will get GB sooner than later.
I also must add that right after flashing 10k the battery was pretty bad and with the rebot problem.
After a factory reset the reboot problem was solved and the battery became super.
cheers for the tip.
What sort of data gets lost/reset on a factory default?
I presume everything gets wiped with a factory reset. So my question is if its possible to backup application settings WITHOUT rooting my phone?
Everyone seems to recommend Titanium to backup settings but I do not want to run the risk of problems with the Gingerbread update by rooting my phone, but I also do not want to lose my game progress either.
Its a shame there is no option to sync all application settings to Google servers, considering one of the huge advantages to me is that the contacts and calendar do exactly that.
I've downloaded 4 times now over wifi and every time I get an invalid software package notification and it will not proceed.
I'm on stock rom (rooted) with no Rom manager gubbins.
Strange, anyone else have this please?

Open LG's Mobile Support and go to "Customer support > Support Model" check for Orange and you will see the version that i available for you.
The last time I saw, Orange was stuck with v10D and T-Mobile with F.

Yeah you can do it using the KDZ file or rooting and flashing with clockwork recovery.
Sorry for being a Noob I've looked but can't find a guide thats for a real noob. Only been running Android for 6 days? but the 3D convert was the main selling point so if someone could help or link I would say a big thanks.

Tab 2 10.1 GT-P5113 4.2.2 update?

Hmm... I just grabbed my P5113 tab and turned Wifi on and it immediately chimed software update in notifications and went away. So like anyone else, i was curious and went to manually check for a software update and in stead of getting the normal "you have the latest software version" blah blah blah, it said this
"Access to the software update service is provided to users in the order in which they request it. Try later"
Now I can only assume this means the servers containing the update are at full capacity and aren't able to handle anymore concurrent connections. Meaning too many people are trying to pull the update?
Can anyone confirm this and is my assumption correct why i can't get it right now?
I'm seeing the same message. I haven't seen that one before. Fingers crossed!

There is a gt-p5113 4.2.2 showing up on sammobile so it looks like it's heading your way. You could always try Kies if you can't wait, or flash the one on Sammobile. I'm still waiting for the gt-p5110. Fingers crossed

Unfortunately, I now have the update on my GT-P5113.
What a major pile of crap. All of my carefully arranged Touchwiz pages? Cleared.
All of my purchased apps? Gone.
I'm used to that, since Samsung never bothered to update the US WiFi tabs to 4.1.2; the 4.1.1 release loses track of purchased apps when you reboot. For that release, I just had to reinstall them.
For this release? Nope. Purchased apps download, then the play store fails with error "-24". You can't have those back.
Oh, and of course, my root access is gone, so I can't remove the stray folders causing that "-24" error.
This isn't even a HALF baked update. Unless you're ready to factory reset afterwards and reinstall everything from scratch you may want to avoid it.
At this point, that's probably what I'm going to have to do.
Now to find out how I can get superuser access back. What fun.
hmmm that sucks man. sorry to hear, but that is strange about the purchaced apps as its account bound to your Gmail account. You should be able to just go and redownload them.
As for Root... I never had the need to root mine as i just used it for streaming my own content (video) to it and i already got 9-10 hours of streaming on 1 charge so stock was fine for me.
The thing is i was thinking or rooting to get 4.2.2 on it since you have to have 4.2.2 to screen mirror with allshare cast. I want to be able to run my slingplayer on my tab and screen mirror the slingplayer to my sammy smart tv. I can do it on my GS4 but the phone gets to hot trying to watch a 2-3 hour sporting event.

Yes, you can redownload. But you can't install them without removing the old copy of the application folders, which requires root. (You get a "-24" error from the play store when you try to install.
Oh, and they disappear again on the next restart.
AND it seems to restore a whole bunch of apps each restart, which then causes another mass download from the play store: Gmail, Books, Magazines, Movies, Music, Search, Plus, Hangouts, Kindle, Maps, Samsung Music Hub, Peel, Samsung Push Service, Talk Back, YouTube are all reverted on a restart.
This has not been good. As I said earlier, I may have to factory reset and start over. Maybe it'll be better starting fresh.
Hmm... I still can't pull it down. It is able to be had via Kies but I refuse to ever load that crap on my PC so I am stuck checking every few hours i guess.
I have updated my wife's GT-P5113 last night using Kies. Everything went smoothly. This one is as stock as it can be, not even root.
A factory reset got my problems completely sorted out. It's stable and seems to be running fine.
Apparently there was some kind of permissions problem in the per-user folder scheme but since I didn't know what they were supposed to be set to, I decided to bite the bullet and do the reset.
After that, and a long wait while it re-installed everything, it's working just fine now.
Yeah I got the download last night and all was fine no need to FDR for mine (though mine wasn't rooted) The thing i do not like is it went to a phone UI rather then the Tablet UI. I liked the notification area in the bottom right corner as to the top pull down like a phone. That i feel was a mistake in UI planning. Your hands normally are on the sides and to the bottom so it was more intuitive to get to the Notification area with your right thumb. Also the back button is now in the bottom center of the screen instead of the far left bottom where you could easily reach with your left thumb to go back.
Everything else is very familiar compared to my GS4 4.2.2 so that is good. Im not happy that there is no screen mirroring that came with 4.2.2 like it's on the GS4 and i even yanked all the APKs out from the GS4 and they won't install on the Tab 4.2.2 so it must be a framwork thing or system.ui maybe idk. all i know is im disappointed about this fact.
I still don't see the update on my P5113. Tried ota and kies, says 4.1.1 is the latest. Could it be that I'm in Canada? It's not rooted, totally stock. Any ideas?

Hi guys, I updated by KIES from 4.1.1 to 4.2.2. Mine is Tab2 10.1 GTP5113 USA WiFi 16 GB. Only problem is that can't turn device off... it reboots immediately after screen goes black... did a hard reset and still the same... then rooted to see if problem fix, but no luck... sometimes turn off sometimes not... next step could be install a custom Rom to see if I can fix the problem...
Wanted to know if somebody else faced this in past times or just in this new upgrade to 4.2.2? Or if somebody could give any ideas... maybe I'am missing something, maybe have to do or try something... I don't know..
Cheers

Hi @fgoyti for your location I don't think it is? I'm in Venezuela and I upgraded by KIES... unfortunately I got a problem... I described it in my previous post... Maybe you only have to try again.
Clean download and install of 4.2.2 yesterday. Went to settings, update software pushed the button and away it went.
Works great for me without any issues. I like it very much. Smooth and fast. On my Galaxy Tablet 2 7 GT-P3113.
I'm in Honolulu. Had to try three times before it started. Had to wait my turn I think !
My download was OTA from my GT-P3113 Galaxy 2 7 tried 3 times then download started. I went to sleep and when I woke up the new firmwar,4.2.2, was installed and running without my help. I am very happy as I said it works great, smooth, and fast.

Trying fixing turn off problem
Related my previous post... found original firmware 4.1.1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1704668 and flashed it.. now I have stock and Tab turns off normally... well, when try to update OTA got the pop up message "Access to the software update service is provided to users in the order in which they request it. Try later"
Advice to who needs to flash stock 4.1.1 (for the reason it was): it happens to me... flashed following the post.. by ODIN with TAR but got an endless bootloop, the solution was going into recovery and do a Hard Reset wiping data and cache... then it booted normally. Maybe it happens because it was a downgrade... I don't know.
Hope nobody else got (and gets) the problem I faced when update to 4.2.2.
Now I'll try again to update by Kies to see if the problem persists... if yes then I'll get back to 4.1.1 and wait for OTA update...
Cheers

Works great for me without any issues. I like it very much. Smooth and fast. On my Galaxy Tablet 2 7 GT-P3113.
I'm in Honolulu. Had to try three times before it started. Had to wait my turn I think !

Hi @DrJoepa, did you upgrade by KIES or OTA? Appreciate your answer... :good:
Yeah i didn't have any issues at all, especially with turning on and off. I got it OTA and its been fine. Though it is a little laggy sometimes. I may just root it later anyway, but for now it's stable and pretty fast. Certainly faster then 4.1.1
Any news on the wi fi only version?
I just got the 4.2.2 update on my tab as well so far it's nice.

Can anyone tell me if Google Play Movies & TV works on the new 4.2.2 update?
It wouldn't work on any previous stock versions.. I don't want to jump back to Stock 4.2.2 from CM10.2 unless it works..

Only can tell you that app Google Pay Movies works but the service it's not available in my country... about Google TV I even don't have the app.
Now I ask you about CM10.2. It's Nightly, isn't? And how does it works?
I am considering installing it because of the problems I described in previous post... none the less I will try the installation OTA because I have tried twice with KIES and my problem that unable turn off the Tab is't fixed... sometimes does and sometimes not... ii's disgusting...
PD: I saw that CM10.2 it's 4.3 . Please @ingenious247 tell us how does it works...

We are just talking about this I think.... mine is WIFI only and I am able to update by KIES and OTA...
I have had no issues with CM10.2, works great!

Stop 6.0MM OTA Update?

My phone said it's going to automatically install and download the update tonight at 11pm all while giving me no option to opt out. This seems a little ridiculous.. Forcing customers to update their devices?
Can someone tell me what I need to disable? I've already downloaded the program 'DisableService' but have no clue what I need to disable. I've also heard someone say that freezing the apps with titanium makes no difference, two of their stylos received the update regardless. Anyone wanna help?
Anybody?

That's the problem. Nobody knows what to disable in the Stylo to stop OTA updates. I've had Samsung phones for years and rooted all of them and we knew what to disable or the developer did it in the ROM.
(Another issue is there are no devs and not alot of users here)

Wait, are you serious? No one knows what to freeze or what to disable as far as services? Are there any apps that anyone here knows of that analyze the files running and what service is called when the OTA message pops up? That should be a sure fire way to figure it out.

If you're rooted then you'll just freeze the lg software updater. I'm sure it's a service somewhere. When the OTA message pops up long press on the notification and it'll show you what app it is. From there go in and freeze that app/service.

when i long pressed on the notification to check it out, it said google play services...which i thought was quite weird...i am rooted on katana so i just ignored it and it went away
I am also rooted on Katana and have had to delete the update out of the cache folder about 3 times now. It seems it only downloads late at night.
Also, love me some griz wint green dip_spit!
Try what's suggested in this post! I haven't had enough time to know if it's fully working, but haven't received a notice as of yet.

Your phone is rooted, right?
I used this on rooted Samsungs. Does it work on unrooted LG G Stylo's?
My phone is running on Katana, so yes it is rooted. Not sure this would work on a non rooted device as you have to place the file in the /system/apps/ folder.

same here. i'm on katana and want to stop getting ota. Will try this tonight see if it helps stoping the OTA.
Funny, I'm trying to get the update and it told me it would once install and just to make sure 100% charge and etc; and when it rebooted it booted right back into my phone and now I don't get the 6.0 update, or even an option to push it to my phone lol...
In system/lgapplicationmanager.apk , I added .bak to the filename and haven't
Had a toast since i long held the update notice and turnd off "notication on top of all " on goggle play services settings.
The suggestion I made works. Haven't had it pop up since.
