OK I go thru the process as described in the YouTube video.,click on shttps and windows enabler.after selecting kdz file and web upgrade the lg software loads and says I have the current version 20h.,OK so I'm confused in two things.i have changed the host file but seems I'm not getting the server side working , which by passes the lg website?
1.shttps server - do I have to do anything to set it up besides click the exe? I seen post where it should show a "sweet girl with a l9" I don't get that.
2.as far as the lg software mine does not look like the same as in the video.look diffent.

OK I think I have the server working right I can click on the web server address and I get the pic of the girl holding the phone and in the web server it shows a bunch of info, but after ibset up r&d tool and click normal web upgrade then the next box the original lg software loads and then says I have latest software version 20h. The phone update tool that is shown in carlitos video never shows. What am I doing wrong?

I believe I did , I ended up doing a stock recovery from T-Mobile, I kept getting the communication error about the phone not being connected.

For some reason my Rooted P769BK got stuck at the splash screen and wouldn't move pass the T-Mobile Android logo. I figured I should hold down the volume down and restart to see if it can go to stock recovery. Little did I know, it seems to have done some kind of Factory Reset.
Now it seems to be stuck. I was able to check my apps through the Settings Menu and found that I didn't move or delete the LG Setup Wizard apk or odex. I just moved all the other T-Mobile bloatware to my SD card.
I have been looking around and even tried to run the KDZ for 10G, but the app force closes on my Windows 7 machine right after it unpacks 10G.
I'm using the T-Mobile USA L9 on V10E. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi, I had the same problem with KDZ on Windows 7 (Ultimate 64bit), when I run flash it falled down. Then I flashed KDZ with virtual Windows XP. Program for virtual PC is VMware workstation, here you create new virtual PC and install system which you want I hope that it will help you
Thanks for the insight. I'll give that a shot when I get home tonight. Any suggestions on how to keep 10E instead of upgrading to 10G?

or you can try search on google for file: V10E_00.kdz P769 (that 00 I don't know if you have too, but on my P760 it has that numbers)
Before I go ahead and try that 10E file, how did you find out it was for the P769 T-Mobile USA variant?

the 10 e dl link
the link for the v10e file is both horrendously slow, and links to a zip which does not contain a kdz file!!! Unless theres a way to turn that file into a kdz file it should not be counted as one.
Now that you mentioned that. It seems to look like the source code that I ran into yesterday. Still waiting on the download.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda app-developers app
I didn't know that it's only source code, I thoght that in ZIP is KDZ file. Now I'm trying to download it, really speed is very slow
I found on google this page http://code.google.com/p/arenoid/wiki/KDZExtractPack it's about extracting KDZ and generating new, maybe it will works.
If it works it's maybe way how to make rooted new firmwares.
Now I downloaded that ZIP, and inside are BIN and FLS file, I don't know what is FLS, but BIN you could flash..I found this..try it

If everything fails, you may just give a try to LG PC Suite.
Whatever the issue is, for any device any firmware there is an option called "EMERGENCY FIRMWARE RECOVERY" in menu of "LG PC SUITE" I did this recovery once when my phone got bootloops and thoough its semi-bricked. But you should be able to bring phone in SW Upgrade Mode. It seems does not do check current ROM at all and FLASHES a fresh latest ROM downloading from LG Server, applicable for your specific phone.
EDIT: Wanna attach screenshot but cannot because XDA is showing overcapacity.
Thanks for the reminder.
Anyways, I figured it out. The phone did reset itself somehow. But, I'm not stuck at the Setup Wizard anymore.

Bump... Did we ever figure out how to flash the BIN and FLS files to the phone? This is V10E, and IS rootable with Bin4ry method. AND according to other rumors, bootloader unlock via oem-unlock should also work.
Or how to recompile these files back into the KDZ would work also.... I also have the DLL file for this as well

So I got my bootloader unlocked but unfortunately during the second flashing process the up test program froze and errored out, now my phone isnt recognized in adb devices and will only go into s/w upgrade mode.
Edit: I also tried fastboot and was able to sucessfuly get into fasboot but flashing the stock x-loader and u-boot was unsucessful and fastboot just gave me the "waiting on device" message.
Edit 2: So after quite the night of running through your guide and a couple of hard ships, I have to say this a very well written guide and it would have worked the first try if I had been doing too much multitasking while in the second flash process.
Overall was easy to follow and I got through after having failed attempts with others guide before due to oem unlock command not working after waiting.
Also I highly reccomend anyone who is going to try this to at least give the other tutorials on unlocking the bootloader for the p769 a solid read through. It will make a difference in what you understand and dont.
Lots of props and I look forward to seeing what you do for our phone in the future!

So carlos it looks like i was having the same issue as you that you posted in another unlocking bootloader thread, cant get past the adb oem-unlock. It just keeps doing a normal reboot.
I saw you got it to work with the wifi connection, is that confirmed needed for every attempt?
also in your guide you have the following command: Go to the Superuser App and update the binary the normal way
I dont know what that means , could you explain that part a little better. Thanks

Ok first i wanted to say that i successfuly unlocked the Bootloader by following this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2500269
but i also have a question:
right not i am on a custom rom (CM)
i installed CM when i had V20B europe open (p760)
the questions are:
and now if i want to go back to V20C Israel (p768) i just need to flash it using the offline flash?
and after i flash the V20C Israel (p768) can i reinstall the recovery with the same method i did when i had the p760 rom?
Ok so here's the jist of it. Was trying to downgrade from 46a to 10b. Couldn't get LG flash tool to come up "Ready", so I tried the terminal emulator method. Seemed to work until I rebooted. Now I get unsuccessful boot error with the LG screen. I don't have twrp as I hoped, only stock recovery. So I've tried for hours with many different methods to get the Flash tool to pick up my phone when its in Download mode. Tried disabling driver signature at boot, downloading different drivers, changing com port to com41.
Nothing
I am on Windows 8 and could get as far as the actual flashtool previously. Now I cant even get that far. Stayed up until 5am and have been back at it since 1.
Any help would be awesome!

So, I can get the my laptop to pick up the phone and show the port. Also says connected mpt device. I just cant get the flash tool to see it. Would it be safe to say that my phone is wiped and therefore does not currently have a "version" (46a ext) and would allow me to flash a kdz on the 2014 flash tool?
Trying to think outside the box seeing I've gotten no leads....

If by terminal emulator method you mean my thread about manually downgrading partitions, then yes, that's another effect of downgrading them, that you can then flash any KDZ you want.

Ok guys I finally got it to work! Ran the older 2014 flash tool. The trick I found to make my Asus i7 recognize my phone was a little strange. When i would let my phone boot up it would flash the led red and blue. Once I held the volume button up it would boot to a blank screen, but the phone was still on. This was the only time my laptop would download and install the correct drivers. From there i powered off, went into download mode and connected, then used the lg tool to flash the 10b kdz file.
All rooted and twrp'ed! Flashing 47a and I'm done!
Hopefully, sometime, somehow, this will help someone else with the same problem.

Yes. You can reflash using lg bridge I believe.
A better solution maybe to use lg bridge were there is a setting were you address 'upgrade errors' without having to download the kdz from elsewhere.

Compability in windows doesn't work sometimes. Do you have someone else who has lower version of windows you could use? If not you could try linux Ubuntu live disc. I am assuming LGUP works with Linux? Not 100% sure on that.
