<gingerbread> how to update without bricking? - Optimus One, P500, V General

Today v20c was deployed. Last time I tried to update an optimus one with the lg software the phone was bricked. Is there a failsafe guide to update the phone?
Thanks.

Go to service center.

just put your phone in emergency and use kdzupdater, BUT do not unplug you phone untill it restarts itself. even if there is any error just start over but DO NOT UNPLUG YOU PHONE

Download the kdz file, use tools to get Dz file from kdz,backup NV from lgmdp ,flash dz file using lgmdp software (DZ button at bottom of flash window). Never lose emergency mode.(don't remove battery)

today in italy the v20c was released and I updated using the official procedure more than 12 phones.
Maybe you problems with official update procedure could be related to the computer you used for.
I believe that if you follow the procedure on a "clean" computer you will have success. Uninstall all software and drivers related to LG or any other phone. Check in devices if all USB and modem drivers was removed and reboot.
Start installing the LGMobile Update without connect your phone by USB and follow instructions. If you have success uninstalling previous soft and drivers, the LG application will install USB drivers and after you can connect you phone and continue with update.
Good luck

KDZ worked without any hassle. I just deactivated the LG modem before proceeding.
I updated 3 phones with this system.

I updated using lgmdp and now my phone will not get data so no internet unless i am on wifi does anyone know why or how to fx it?????

The new baseband does NOT work with the ROM you are using. I do not see why on earth did you flash it. Downgrade it.

it didn't work with my phone in general after flashing the new official update I couldn't get 3g anywhere even on that rom tried flashing a new baseband thru recovery and kdz but nothing had to use kdz to flash original firmware and start over it was a pain in the butt the ROM looked cool but with no data no thank you

Well, enjoy your non-working data then. The new baseband will NOT work on CM7, period.
Next time, think about what you are doing.

You don't understand my data did not work on the official ROM either I did everything it said to do fallowed all the steps and it went just like the post read I rebooted the ROM worked except the data even with the official ROM it would not work I even tried flashing the baseband again for the v20 rom but still nothing and the only way I could get it back was by using kdz and flashing original 2.2 and starting over

ZOMG. You are not supposed to use v20? baseband for the ROM you have in signature (CyanogenMod 7.1-RC0 v6.5.5). It will just NOT work.
- Check that you have v10 baseband
- Wipe all, reflash mik's ROM.
- Do NOT flash any other baseband "patch" or whatever similar.
Now you will have perfectly working data.
v20 baseband will ONLY work on official 2.3.3 ROM and ROMs based on that official 2.3.3. ROM.
If you still do not understand this explanation, then kindly stick to stock ROM and do not flash anything at all.

those of you who bricked your phone check the how to's on unbricking, for those that upped to the official gingerbread through LG and dont have data check your carrier APN settings, i had to manually install mine
go into settings, wireless & networks, mobile networks, APN or Acess Point Names

Try changing your country in the software update tool.
If LG hasn;t released 2.3 for your country, try using the updates of the other countries.
IMO all of them are equally good, with only some tiny changes which are almost unnoticable.

[Q] Gingerbread update for unlocked T-mobile P500

I have a LG Optimus P500 from T-mobile which is unlocked to all GSM sims. It runs Fryo 2.2 and I would like to upgrade to Gingerbread 2.3.x. Is it possible to do that? Would that lock or brick the phone? Is there any way that I could install gingerbread 2.3.x since I don't also see T-mobile official gingerbread release anywhere for P500.
Is KDZ an option or should I stick with Fryo?

T-mobile has not released an official update for next version of android popularly known as gingerbread. KDZ is a gingerbread update for lg and it is a firmware update utility specifically meant for lg phones.

I know that I can update using KDZ but I have a unlocked phone and just skeptical if it would get it locked and also the chances of getting it bricked are more since it is a unlocked phone. Just trying out to know if someone had used KDZ on an unlocked T-mobile P500 phone.
u guy can help me up rom 2.3 for lg ku 3700 korea version.thanks so much

Seems like we both are trying to get a response but let us see....
I have the same exact phone from Walmart on T-Mobile. I tried to use kdz and bricked my last phone. Luckily walmarts people sent me a brand new one when I told them it bbricked while I was talking on it. SO being very careful I rooted and flashed clockwork mod, made a backup and then flashed cm7 nightly 34 which has been working amazing for weeks now, just had to use funny sim fix for the data to work.

Thanks for the update and info. Now I know using KDZ would brick the phone. I also bought it through Walmart but I would be here in Bangalore for sometime and I have unlocked the phone. As you have mentioned I would like to root and flash clockworkmod but since I have unlocked it I doubt it would work or if I try it would lock again.
Can you post a download link for cm 7 most recent

There is a thread somewhere with the official LG GB roms.
I loaded the rom for Taiwan with KDZ on my unlocked P509T.
csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGP500/ATWNBK/V20d_00/V20D_00.kdz
It has indonesian, german, english, spanish, french, italian, malay, portuguese, viet, turkish, arabic, korean, chinese in the language & keyboard menu.
It is unbranded and has little bloatware. And the phone now ids itself as a P500.
Rooted with the lge_adb.conf trick and superoneclick
EDGE & HSDPA connect fine - at least for TMO MyAccount - out here
in Los Angeles.
The most important function lost was WiFi calling, otherwise it seems to work ok.
You can always flash back it to the official froyo if it doesn't work out.
All you have to do is do a search about rooting and flashing recovery then flashing ROM's its all here just search for it. And if you can't find what you need Google still is a working reliable search engine.

[Q] How to upgrade to 6.1.A.2.45?

Hi Guys,
I am very annoyed with data connection loss and heard that this latest rom fixes this. I am currently running 6.1.A.0.453 but PCC still think I have the latest version, even Sony website said the latest version is 6.1.A.2.45.
Any idea when the rom will be available on my phone because if I have to put up with this for another week I will smash it to the wall.
Thanks

Find the ftf file with the newest version and install via flashtool
Unless you have cwm recovery... Then just install the flashable zip from development forum

Does it requires the phone to be rooted? I really don't want to root it because my Mobile Banking app will not work if the phone is rooted :crying:

I flashed the 6.1.A.2.45 and all good. Battery seems ok but for some reason Android System is right at the top with 40% and screen at 15%, I would of thought this should be the other way around. Checked the graph for details and I noticed that the phone was AWAKE all night even though I switched it to airplane mode.
I am now thinking about doing a wipe but I'm not sure which option to use 'Factory data reset' or 'Settings reset'. Does the factory data reset delete all my data like photos, musics & docs?

Look for offline procedure update with LG mobile tool. Download the full 80220D KDZ file and flash it. I did it and remained with all apps and data. You have To re root but that's easy.

It doesn't matter AME, SEA or other. D802 is D802 and all firmwares for that prefix will run propertly. You have to only watch out for capability of phone storage. This one firmware works with 32GB perfectly.
