Now with a bit of error part.

Installed the lg pc suite.
It detected the phone but while syncing it (lg pc suite) crashes in between.
I'm using windows 7 64 bit.(if this helps)
one more thing i'm confuse about one thing and that is rooting.
I live in india and there are many applications which i dont really need so would rooting would help me get rid of those programs.
If yes then one thing i'm a total noob at all this.
please provide me a link with a detailed.
And please only and only if its necessary.

I am facing the exact same problem. Will try at home today on my XP PC. But am confounded why the software keeps crashing. Tried it on 3 different windows 7 pcs. Have not tried a different downloaded version of PC Suite IV. Also, not able to downgrade firmware or use superoneclick to root the firmware, both hang.
My specs are as follows:
Android 2.2.1
LG software v10c
Does anyone face the same problem or has a solution?
Thanks

[Q] Unable to upgrade to 2.2.2

Hi!
I'm having problems updating my P500 to the latest available rom. I tried about everything but it gets me nowhere LG software clearely isn't the best, I had quite some troubles with it in the past, trying to upgrade my old KP500 Cookie and apparently, it hasn't becomme any easyer in the mean time ...
First problem I have is that I cannot get the update software to work correctly on my W7home 64bit desktop pc. This is probably my own fault since I connected the phone before installing the usb drivers. Now it keeps trying to install the USB driver but it fails when attempting to install the MCCI(r)Firmware. Is there a way to remove everything and start over from scratch?
Secondly I grabbed my GF's laptop and got the software to install properly this time around and got the update process going. But for reasons unknow to me the LG software crashed at arround 15% when the P500 already was showing a yellow screen. After I removed the battery I got it to boot up again and it seems to be working ok but still shows the old firmware (v10b) on the settings menu. Problem is now that when I tried a second time the LG software won't commence the update process because it detects version v10h, which is says is the latest and no update is nesacery.
So, what now? I'm out of ideas ...
Not even any suggestions?

Just change a to d and download with idm by pasting the new link in idm. You will know what am I saying once you visited the link. But make sure you install the p500 driver. If you want you can downloadthe driver from here. I run win 7 ultimate 64 bit so it will work on your machine too.

LG P500 user with cm7 6.5.5 here.
have you installed the proper drivers for your phone? if you havent: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15960064#post15960064
You flashed any other kernel ?
I had the same problem, when i flashed stable 6.5.5 with fk's v1-Gingerbread. It was solved when i flashed just the 6.5.5 variant without fk's v1-Gingerbread kernel.
Cinclusion: right now, i am running the fastest and the most stable rom of the decade
Hope this helps out.

yes then your driver is not installed properly. First of all uninstall all the driver whatever you have installed on your PC. Re-start it.
Download the LG Mobile Support Tool
Install the LG Mobile Support Tool, and while the phone is DISCONNECTED open the program.
Under the Options & Help menu, choose Country & Language. Set your country and English as your language.
Next, on the main window choose to install the USB driver, and choose LGP500 as the model number.
Wait while the app downloads and installs 4 or 5 separate drivers.
USB modem toll in also attached. Only install it if you need.
I'm have the same exact problem, I've tried everything suggested (Mine is the Optimus V). I've scoured the internet and tried almost everything I've found.
- I've un-installed all USB Drivers associated with LG Mobile
- Re-Installed VM670 Drivers, those didn't work
- I uninstalled all USB Drivers Again
- Installed Singapore Drivers and selected P500 (Didn't work)
I spent some time on it this morning and nothing came of it

when you said re-installed, do you mean that you did this?:
open lgmobile support tool
set country to united states
select install usb driver
carrier: virgin mobile
select lgvm670
if thats what you meant, maybe try one of the other models. if you didnt mean that, well go try it

I've done that, I've tried doing different models (P500), I've tried getting the drivers straight from LG's website, I literally have a folder on my desktop with at least 5-7 different sub folders, each with a set of drivers for this phone..nothing seems to be helping.
The reason I'm trying to do this is so I can get LGMDP to recognize the phone

are you using a custom rom from another phone that is compatible for your phone?
what i mean is, i have an optimus t but im using an O1 rom. the identity of my phone lets just say "switched" from lgp509 (optimus t) to lgp500 (O1). so even though you are installing the drivers for vm670, your phone might be "under another identity"

@dcure
try uninstalling the LG PC Suite, and reboot windows and re-install the PC Suite after that... It might help...
CosmicDance thanks for your help, but i tried with other optimus one and pc recognize the cellphone. Im so sad because i want to root the phone and then flash a custom ROM.
, please if you have some idea i will appreciate your help.
Two things:
1) Make sure that under applications, you're not in USB Debugging
2) If you're using Windows 7, go into the device manager while the phone is plugged into the USB. The LG phone device might have a yellow "trouble" icon on it. Right click the phone and choose "Update Driver Software." Next, Select "Search automatically for Updated driver software." The computer should find the drivers on the pc and install them.
Sometimes, when you plug in 2 Optimus phones of the same model, this happens. Just push the driver forward.
same thing happened with my o1 as well..
i did a hard reset and format my sd-card.
and after that all was ok
same thing happened to my phone but my phone is in warranty so i go to service centre and they checked my phone and change my PCB.
Hello people, i return the phone then i bought a Samsung captivate

LGE Drivers

Anyone have a solution for the ever recurring FOUND NEW HARDWARE?
I'm using windows vista.
already installed drivers for lgp500 but every time i connect the device via usb. my pc wont recognize it. and wont even automatically find the drivers even though i already install all the drivers needed.
Any workarounds?
* I want to change my base band but lgeblahblah wont seem to detect it.
help pls. i want to change my baseband but my pc wont recognize my phone
i had to re-install the lg drivers twice before it started working
one time my sdcard went bad
i assume you have usb debugging turned ON and are hitting "usb connect" when the drivers have updated the phone.
I went with Andy's phoenix rom, he coded in his rom modifications to fix that. Of course Bluetooth still is not working however I use earphones with mic integrated.

if problem is still alive ...
Don't know if you've tried this, but if not:
1.) get LG PC Suite IV for P500, and install it.
2.) connect your phone to PC, and wait
3.) if LGE Modem installed, go to Device Manager, and set it to tilted or disabled.
( sorry, i'm hungarian, and using hungarian windows too, don't know how this option called on english or other language )
After that, if no other drivers was installed for your phone, should be detected, and installed now. Anyway when you update or downgrade firmware using kdz method, flashing will not start until you disable lge modem in device manager, and you will get only errors, so maybe it will help with installing drivers too. Method tried with GW620, GT540 (my last two phones) and P500 too.
I had issues with these drivers the first time I tried using them. I suggest going to LG Mobile Support, getting their software program, it will ask for your phone model and download all the necessary drivers. Don't have your phone connected, it tends to want to upgrade to the LG's latest ROM.

[Q] Blue Screen Error (USB problem) when using Odin @ boot.ini

Hello everyone from XDA!
I've been reading several different posts on the Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-i9100, and though many have been helpful (thank you!), I just can't seem to find the solution I'm looking for.
Not long ago I upgraded the stock firmware from Bell Canada (forget the specs) to:
Android version: 2.3.5
Baseband version: I9100XXKI4
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWJK3-CL647431 [email protected] #2
Build number:: GINGERBREAD.XWKJ3
My phone was also rooted.
Recently, however, I've been trying to upgrade to ICS but without success---and I've tried a number of ways, from the XDA forum to various websites around. I suspect the problem may be with my computer (USB related) and not the phone. I'm not sure, I'm not an expert, which is why I come to you for help, please.
The first and only attempt of ever upgrading the firmware (see above) was a success; as per directions, I used Odin: the PIT, PDA, PHONE, and perhaps CSC as well. It has been some time since the ugrade, and in the mix of trying new and different firmware (without success) I have forgotten exactly what happened.
So my problem, now, is that any time I try to upgrade to ICS (or another firmware for that matter) my computer ends up crashing when the flashing of the phone reaches the "boot.ini" stage. My computer (Windows XP Professional) crashes and a blue screen appears with an error---something to do with USB.
I just can't seem up update my phone.
The phone still works perfectly fine, but I really want ICS. I have tried with and without Kies installed. In fact, Kies even allows me to upgrade to a newer version (though it's not ICS) than I currently have. Unfortunately, though, when I try upgrading via Kies, I am also unsuccessful.
Could this just be my computer's USB? The drivers? If you have had similar experience and know the answer please help!

I agree it sounds like a problem with your PC. You can bypass that problem by using Mobile Odin.
As ctomgee says, a blue screen error indicates a problem with your computer, not phone.
The way you are trying to get ICS also seems strange, the current way to get it would be:
Root phone and install CWM using Chainfire kernel.
Download and put the ICS rom on your sd card.
Boot into CWM, wipe everything and install the rom.
Reboot and you have ICS.
What file were you trying to use to upgrade to ICS?
Thanks
@ ctomgee: I've considered using a friends computer but I'm worried about damaging their computer by having an error appear.
@ oinkylicious: Thanks, I never knew about mobile Odin. I'll check it out.
@Kaze105: I appreciate the steps, thank you. The new firmware is GT-I9100_XEU_I9100XXLPB_I9100XXLPB_I9100XEUKH2.tar.md5 and Kernel_I9100XXLPB.tar.md5, respectively.
If any of you have links or suggestions as to favorite roms, kernels, or the like, well I'm open to suggestions!

Can't hit the target if you don't take the shot...
I'm having a similar problem.
I decided to root my galaxy s2 with the CF-kernel (so this is my initial flash, and mobile odin is no alternative).
But every time I start (in Odin), my computer crashes.
I tried it on a "native" Windows XP x86 system and in a virtual machine with Windows XP x86(because I am using Linux only).
On my second machine with Windows 7 64bit, I cannot install the device drivers correctly (the CDC component fails to install), so Odin (and Kies as well) does not recognize the Device.
Is there any suggestion or alternative to Odin especially for Linux systems?
Thanks in advance!
Edit: enabling USB 2.0 for the virtual machine and reinstalling the USB-drivers did the trick (the native windows system has no USB 2.0). Now it hangs on connectionsetup, but that's another problem.
