Trying to upgrade my phone - AT&T LG Optimus G

Ok I bought a broken AT&T Optimus G off of ebay and I just got it fixed today so low and behold it's still on ICS and not JB. So I tried to do a Wi-Fi update and it says that it's the latest. The phone is still carrier locked so that might be an issue. I'm not trying to dabble in the custom rom right this instant though.

you are going to have to call Att and asked them to push the update

[Q] Error code 1233 when updating profile/prl

Last night I decided to try to update my prl through the updater in Sense and I got an error code 1233. Called sprint tech support and spent an hour trying to get it fixed. The tech ended up just sending me a new phone, which a huge buzz kill because I've had hboot 1.12 since the beginning with s-off. Was running toasted-deck from irc, and I don't know if that had anything to do with my phone getting screwed up so I figured I'd ask if anyone else has had this problem? I want to unlock this new phone when I get it too, and I'm really going to miss TD if this is a common problem.
I got the same thing while trying to update my firmware.

OF wouldn't accept a new phone there's a method of fixing it with WiFi and checking HTC updates then rebooting

I was getting this too. I had to run an errand up to another major city north of where I live. While there, I figured I'd give it a shot again, and it worked there. If you get the opportunity, try running it in a different area from where you tried.
I'm surprised that they are sending you a new phone for this.

I searched high and low for a fix before I even called Sprint Tech. Any chance you can point me in the right direction? I'll just send them their locked down phone back if I can fix this one.

Unfortunately I did try in a few different areas. I live in Cincinnati and go to school in Dayton, but got the same error in both places. I really wonder how this even happened because I never had a problem running AOSP on my OG EVO so I don't think that could be it.
I had this happen on my 3D and when it did work it only connected to Verizon....weird I know and even the tech couldn't believe but I did a data reset on it and never had that problem again.

So I was on stock with goodies and just out of curiosity switched to mean rom to try and activate my phone. The activation went off without a hitch and now my phone is working perfectly again. So pumped.
if u were able to do it before then all of sudden u can't, it must be sprint

Are you using Google voice? I've found that GV messes things up like that.

OK i flashed to mean rom and now I'm able to update prl and profile without getting the error, as for the busy tone it was gv, i signed out of gv the calls went thru then i signed back in and get the busy signal again, which sucks because that's never happened before till now.

I had the same problem a few days ago. I was Running CM10 and switched over to Stock w/ Goodies to update my PRL and Profile so i can take advantage of LA's new LTE network but i kept getting that error. I ended up unrooting and relocking my phone and restored to complete stock after that it updated fine the first time. I doubt being rooted prevents you from updating either the PRL or Profile.
I was getting the same error code at work. I googled the code ansomeone said it was a connection problem. I believe this because I never get a good signal at work. When I got home my prl updated. I'm on meanrom.
Easy Fix
Turn off WiFi and LTE radio (CDMA only) and try it. You should be able to update the PRL and Profile.
As "zAcHcOmA" mentioned, I also gave them a Thanks for it.. I had the same issue with "Error Code 1233".
My problem started when I noticed every incoming call I tried to answer thru the Handset would basically act as if I missed the call. Seems I didn't have an issue answering through Blue Tooth though. Not exactly sure what is causing this. I'll keep an eye on it after updating my PRL & Profile. Anyways, I did the following and was able to update both PRL & Profile..
1. Make sure Wireless is off
2. Set network to by going to Settings - Mobile Data - Network Mode "CDMA only"
3. I was then able to update both PRL & Profile through System Updates and I then rebooted my phone.
I'll now find out if my issue is resolved or if I still have on going issues.

[Q] T-mobile : getting OTA updates when available.

Might be a noob question.. apologies if it was one.
I have the LGOG unlocked with tmobile.. when att eventually releases a sw upgrade i know that i wont receive it over the air.
My question is that is it possible to get the update (when its available ) by swapping in a att sim card till the upgrade is finished ? Or is it like they check if the sim card has a purchase history or contract with att

I change my SIM card via different phones all the time, and I have no issues getting updates on the respective phones. No AT&T does not check for purchase history.

Updating the DNA on AT&T

Hey all,
So I'm using the DNA on AT&T and it works great. My question is, how do I go about getting the new software update that's being pushed out to other users while I'm on AT&T? For some reason, my DNA won't pick up the OTA on AT&T, and even sticking an old, deactivating Verizon SIM in it won't work either. I've also tried just using no SIM on wifi and checking for the update but still nothing. Any way I can download the RUU or something? Thanks!
how to unlock network AT&T
I think you can just download the update. Zip on the server and then flash it to your phone and you will have the update I know people over seas are probably going to do it that way since they can't get the ota in another country where there is no service.

Wouldn't flashing a zip require root? Or are you taking about an RUU? I'm not rooted and don't plan to be, just want the ota.

Should I unroot ? Are we expecting a ota 4.2.2

I read on google that 4.2.2 is already being or about to be released ota , any truth to this ..
I just wondered if I should unroot for now to accept the ota, if there intact is one

I wouldn't count on it for at least a month.

tmobile us will take their sweet time to get us the update. i just hope it's not too long after all other regions have gotten theirs. the 5 months they took to release jb update for the htc one was ridiculous.
I vote we start mailing them filled out AT&T number port contracts in three weeks
I have been using 4.2.2 since it first came out, get a rooted rom, r u kidding...
I am sim unlocked, and for some reason I cant use an att sim, I tried my friends just to see, I cant get no signal, don't know why.

Might be possible to go BACK to MDL!

So I went in to best buy today to have them flash my phone back to stock. I had talked with the guy the other night for a while and he was pretty open to helping me out no matter what. I left my phone with him while I looked around. When I came back he said that the sock firmware was flashed and that the updates were installing now. I asked what updates and he told me that since my phone came with MDL that is what was installed and that the updates had to be installed to bring it current. I asked him if he could have stopped the process before the updates and he said he could have if his boss wasnt there. He said that Verizon has a single package that won't allow this but that it's possible with att.
Just thought I would throw this out there in case it helps the effort somehow.

And after thinking about it this might be why AT&T hasn't released mf3. Image for kies

Did you have the ME7 firmware on the phone originally?
If you did have the ME7 firmware installed did Best Buy give any clues as to how they managed to install the MDL firmware?
The phone came with MDL and I was Loki'd. Then the update came overnight and I was then on MF3. I deleted some system apps and just wanted to get back to stock. The Samsung rep said that since my phone originally came with MDL that is what gets installed and then the updates are added.

Sorry to add an AT&T thread to verizon, it was by accident, but hopefully it might be helpful anyway.
