Well I heard that android 2.2 was available with froydvillian ect, so i decided to update to that, i followed the steps of installing villainrom first which was successful.
I then went onto installing froydvillain 1.5 the same way but was unsuccessful on many times (just got stuck on the hero screen).
I then decided that I'd just stick with the orange firmware so used the update on the PC get android 1.5 on.
I then was going to update the 2.1 but could get the usb to work, and it wouldn't mount to the pc. I then downloaded the update through mobile web and it installed.
Now my problems are that i cant download from android market.. "Download unsuccessful", aswell as not bieng able to sign into facebook ect.. I am signed into google. I have factory rest the phone to no luck, and cannot reinstall the firmware from the pc as im getting the usb error.
Help please?
New error, my phone says its got 50% bettery, the update on the pc says its got less than 30%.
I believe it has nothing to do with the ROMs. Me, as well as 3 or 4 of my other friends have the same problems today with the Market, some of them use the stock and others, including me, custom ROMs. I guess Google's doing some maintenance or something... I don't know why Facebook doesn't work, though.
its google issue
i have the same problem, but its good to know that its a google problem...i was a little panik rightnow cos i just flashed a new rom =)
I connected my phone via wi-fi today and to my surprise, the Update Notification in the phone prompted me that V10E_00 is available (my stock firmware is V10B_00).
I was a little skeptical at first (cause I already tried flashing via kdz updater to v10C and v10A before putting it back to v10B since there really was no difference) so I turned on the official LG Software Updater, and there really is an update available, so decided to go ahead with it.
Will keep you posted on the verdict...
UPDATE: the update went smooth (though I had to manually turn the phone back on).
what i noticed:
1. all apps and contacts and messages are still intact. same bloatware still there too (layar, app advisor, task killer, et al..)
2. 2 new apps in the application directory ("App installer" and "Games")
3. android version is 2.2.1, Build Number FRG83 (it used to be 2.2 and FRF** as I recall)
4. kernel version is 2.6.32.9 dated NOV 30 2010 (it used to be OCT 5, 2010).
5. Phone got unROOTED (as expected)
hope this addresses the random reboots, sd card gets unrecognized and the lgmits error thing... will observe as time flies...
UPDATE 2:
z4root (v1.3) can't root this thing
Best news I've heard... Am a victim of sd card error...
hopefully it does fix it, i'll keep you guys posted in the next few days.
still haven't found a way to re-root this damn thing though... lol!
I am still stuck at V10B. Is V10E already available in the Philippines? When I connect my phone, it always tells me that I have the latest update.

That happens in all Android devices and not only on LG P500.
Google said that problem is almost resolved on Gingerbread.
The most important problem i hope that LG fixed in this new version, its the SD Card Unmount Issue.
Seems that this is more problematic on the P500, as I've had other android phones...
About the SD unmount problem, I've yet to experience it

That happens, because other Android devices got the armv7 at 1Ghz.
We have an armv6 at 600Mhz, so its natural that we notice that problem more often.
Wait for Gingerbread, Google said the problem is almost minimized

@kaitee:
i bought my phone here in manila. i didn't use LG PC Suite 4 to update, i used the LG Mobile Support Tool (http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/client/app/B2CAppSetup.exe)
@gemarc:
didn't notice any improvement playing Angry Birds.
@socialdistortion:
the kernel is different as well as the Android build, it is now 2.2.1 buil FRG83 from 2.2 FRF91.
i don't know what's the difference between the 2 builds but i did notice the easier methods of rooting the phone no longer works. must be security patches.
the only thing I'm hoping for is that this fixes the LGMITS force close thing and the SD Card unmounting randomly...
will keep you guys informed as time goes on...
Just installed the latest version. And put back the problem SD card. Hopefully the random unmount problem will be solver

The update is not available OTA. But you can download the firmware and flash with the kdz updater... Check the language availability in the above post...
I am facing a very annoying problem: my x10 mini(unrooted) automatically gets restarts.
Some of the days it works fine. But once it gets restarts then it restarts atleast 3-4 times a day. I have tried to reinstall the android firmware but still the problem prevails. I keep the phone memory at 21-22MB level, is the problem because of this( But I want to tell you 1 thing that I bought the phone in november and in feb end my phone was not switching on ,then I went to SE service centre they reinstalled the firmware and the problem was solved. Since then I am facing the problem of rebooting, before that it worked fine. I used to keep the phone memory around 2mb in the initial days of purchasing and it worked fine even in 2mb so I guess low phone memory is not a problem. I rooted my phone in november but when service centre employee reinstalled the firmware then I lost rooting.i.e. Now my phone is unrooted). Can the problem be because of SIM card or SD Card(corrupt files which I am aware of) or it is because of some other reason?
I dont want to go to the service centre because I feel that they will just reinstall the firmware which I already have done. It would be great if you could tell me any solution. If not the solution then a user friendly and so technical language using app which show the log of my phone so that I can figure out what happens in the system. But I really want a solution. Please guys help! Hope you guys would bring all your experience into play and help me.

Well ..people will need some more specific info ..like are you on the latest SE update ? what programs did u install (seems u did install quite a few as ur phone memory is ~22 MB ). Anything you noticed when it reboots ? Like while doing some operation or running something in particular when this reboot happens ?
Why dont you do a fresh flashing of the latest update through SEUS (not PC companion) and then just stick to the stock ROM (without installing anything else) for 7-10 days and see how it behaves ?
You can always take a backup of ur essentials like SMS and contacts (if you are not syncing ur contacts with google ) before you flash using SEUS.
There are ways to check the logs (using logcat ) but not sure how much effective it might be as u might not be in a position to check logs everytime when your phone reboots.
Hope this helps. Really there was very less inputs available for giving any solution.
I am having the latest android firmware. I updated the android firmware by downloading a firmware file avaible on the sony's website, I don't know what it is called but I surely didn't used pc companion for updating. There is no specific app which I am using when it restarts.
I will give any necessary info which will help you to suggest a solution.

you cannot just download a firmware from SE site ..it can be done only by two ways one via PC companion and the other by SE Update service. (SEUS)
And yes , it would be better to reflash through SEUS . It does seem that you have installed lots of things ..better forget them now and just use the stock ROM from SE.
I rooted my LG L70 D320N and removed some bloatware and stuff like gallery, memo, calendar that came pre-installed. I've been happily using it for days, but since I restarted it few hours ago I receive a message saying "The phone has stopped" every few seconds and the network restarts, so the phone is unusable. I didn't remove any system files, so I have no idea what could be the problem. I tried factory reset hard reset. And I don't have any backup.
Is there a way to recover it?
I found the stock ROM for my phone and flashed it using the tutorial linked bellow. Everything looks original and works correctly. If I find something sketchy, I'll update this topic.

I have a VF-895N (rooted and stock rom - update 130FFN2), yesterday I decided to update my phone from 5.0.2 120FFN2 to 5.0.2 130FFN2, I removed root and made a hard reset, started the update process but at the very end of the update, it said "error", then I got stuck into a bootloop " no command" but managed myself to re-flash stock rom already updated with the latest version. When it finished flashing, I booted up the phone, started to remove bloatware, rooted the phone and started to install apps like Facebook, Instagram and other stuff like that.
I finished installing all the apps I wanted but I noticed my battery was draining very fast and also my phone was overheating, I tried to open Instagram for the first time but it freezed, tried the same with Facebook, it freezed.
Overall the phone's performance was very bad comparing with the one I had before re-flashing.
Now I don't know what to do, some apps close or freeze, the phone does not overheat much now bcuz I installed setcpu and set the values to min.=240mhz and max.=980mhz tho I don't understand much of these things... (Initially the values were 1.020mhz of min. And 1.020mhz of max.
I did hard reset 3 times and I always got the same result and I also cleaned the cache too.
I can't downgrade bcuz there is no stock rom available anywhere except for a flash tool (Sugar QCT) that flashes the latest update, which I already have and seems to be broken.
Please help me.
