I have a question
On this moment my phone LG-990 has Firmware 10a
So there is a new one for me 10c here in Holland
I have no problems of any kind with the phone
So what do you think?
shall I leave it this way or flash it to the 10c?
Thanks
You should upgrade to 10c. After then you probably will see there is another update 10c --> 10d. Latest software has various bug fixes and a bit longer battery life, so I would recommend upgrading.

I just recently switched from iphone to the SGS and yeah its all kinds of awesome. I bought a bell phone, unlocked it and using it with rogers. So i was wondering how the 2.2 update would work, i know its not out yet but does anyone know how the update works? Yep noob to all this.

It will most likely go through kies first then odin users who downloaded the roms. I don't think samsung does over the air updates.

Samsung push there updates through their Kies program. Once it's released you will also be able to flash through Odin.

Hey there. To answer your question, no. You don't need to upgrade anything before the Froyo version is officially released. Having said that, Samsung seems to have been working behind the scenes to fix quite a few bugs notably the GPS issue. So, it is always a good idea to upgrade to a newer firmware.
Again, upgrading or not really is a very subjective thing. Most people decide what firmware to use based on their application for their phones. If you are happy with the overall performance of the phone, stick to the current version. If you are not, upgrade to the latest version indicated by Kies and that should be it. Your choice really....
Cheers....

kies always shows you the latest firmware available for your device.. so dossent matters if you upgrade to this jh2 firmware or not.. in the future if they release the froyo firmware kies will show you a notification that a latest version of operating system is available...
now talking about you should or shouldnot upgrade to this firmware.....
as skiddhard said it depends on what you think of your current firmware.. but if kies shows you that an upgrade is available that means there might be some changes and improvement in the firmware that is released.. but it may or may not be usefull to you... firstly do you feel a major kind of lag in ur current firmware?? if yes then you should definitely go in for the firmware upgrade because the newer version of 2.1 upgrades are definitely faster than the previous once
Thanks Guys. I ended up updating it, i havent noticed any difference, so thats good in my books *phew* in the future, if it aint broke, dont fix it.

Hi guys,
I am perplexed about one thing and need help sorting it out. Some owners of LG O2x report that their phones have been updated to baseband version 10d and that the phone is much more stable and that there are no reboots. However, once I connect my phone to LG upgrade tool I am not given the opportunity of upgrading to 10d. The most recent firmware is 10b or am I missing something?
Baseband 405 appeared before v10d did, it's easy to install though, check MoDaCo.
B is the same as D but diffrent names for diffrent regions

Hey there,
So last I checked there was still no official release of the V20 firmware for Gingerbread on the LGP970 for UK networks. Does anyone know why? Are there still plans to release it?
I've held out on flashing my phone and manually installing one of the other official releases, because it looks quite tricky. If I do flash myself, any recommendations on which region's firmware to install?
Many thanks in advance,
J

Same here (Brazil). None of the operators have the V20 upgrade, just the open units (directly from LG).
My CP is from TIM Brasil and I have flashed the Brazil Open version. I've been having no problems whatsoever.
not available GB 2.3.4 in IRAN and UAE now too
hi
i dont no why not available GB 2.3.4 in IRAN and UAE now too ?!!!???!
LG software support is very slow
I've been trying to update my P990 to V30a for a few days now. The LG Mobile support tool either says no update or this
Web Update is not available for this latest version,
Please update using your phone as below,
1) Select Menu -> Setting -> About Phone -> Software Update
software update says latest version. but it doesn't detect my phone version (attachment)
lg pc suite says i'm on the latest version
Probably not rolled out in your area then. If you can't wait you can always download it from any of the mirrors in the v30a thread here on xda.
Ps next time please post questions in the question part of the forum.
In germany LG Tool Shows no update, too. Think that we have to wait again till it works.
Otherwise flash the KDZ! I did last night, the result: I'm back to GB-MIUI. In my opinion LG's ICS is pure crap. Laggy like hell - unusable for me.

The tool looks for the newest dutch version, while ics (v30a) is only available as 'europe open'.
I suggest smartflashing the v30a from xda.

Why is this and who determines the update for different regions. Im using on AT&T network. What the hell?? Please explain.

have you got through that soft brick situation?
actually there is a new Leak JB on sammobile for South American N7000. check this tread
http://www.sammobile.com/2012/12/13...-note-android-4-1-2-jelly-bean-test-firmware/
there are many reason why you are not getting an update. if there firmware doesnot match the update criteria like PDA/PHONE/CSC. but its always better to update manually using Odin
As nokiamodeln91 said - grab the JB firmware from sammobile and flash it - you'll get latest firmware, and fresh install is always better than OTA upgrade. Should you need any help with flashing, just ask
You most likely won't receive OTA update because UBKK2 seems to be a country specific firmware and they're sometimes poorly maintained. Best to flash international JB rom.
Just getting ready to start on it. Think I have a fix but well have to see what happens. As for the update I had been on the same gb rom since i got the phone like 6 months ago and just finally realised that it probably wasnt going to come. So as you see I bricked my first phone. Have been lucky with the atrix and 717 and even a previous model 7000 but i should have done more research before flashing. Will update the thread whichever way it goes. How is the battery life on these new JB roms? Ive heard alot of people complain about decreased battery life after updating to ICS and so I was skeptical about updating. Im open to suggestions as I have limited time to read up now working alot of hours on nights.
I think it's best to just root it and install cwm ( 1 step method by dr. Ketan ) and flash CM10.1 - you won't believe how fast and smooth Note can be.
Another option would be to get odin, download firmware from sammobile ( nokiamodel provided the link ) and flash it - single step procedure.
True, ICS had worse battery life, but it seems that JB fixed that, at least on AOSP based roms. If you need help with flashing procedure, let me know.
