[Q] gingerbread update issue

Hi everybody
I'm from Italy but I own a device imported from Holland (NLD) and doesn't seem it's going to get V20l update within few days. Is it possible to flash italian official V20l firmware and then unroot the phone in order to get gingerbread installed as it was downloaded by LG tool? This would make my phone an italian one? I mean that the next time an update will be available will I be able to install automatically the italian update from Lg Tool?
Thanks
Kind Regards
Stefano

Yes. Or you can smartflash a completely stock 20L ROM, download it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1035041

No. The update tool sends the IMEI to the update server(s), which looks it up in its database to determine which country was the point of sale/intended market.
So the phone will still be identified as NLD, no matter which ROM you flash. (It may be possible to go to a service-center and have the IMEI re-assigned to Italy, not sure.)

[Q] I cannot update to Gingerbread plz HELP!!!

Hello guys,
I am from Greece and i am a new p990 user!
I bought my phone from Greece but the device was from Vodafone DE.
The gingerbread update is released.
My phone got s/w version V10E , still with Android Froyo 2.2.2.
I was trying to update it via LGMobile support Tool , but all the time i got the same msg : "The Cell phone is the latest version already. So you don't need to update."
Could you plz tell me what i could do? Is it possible to remove vodafone rom and replace it with a stock Gingerbread LG ?
Guide me plz...

Use this link http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=IMEI_HERE
replacing IMEI_HERE with your own IMEI, it will tell you what version your phone should be.

Link seems to be broken...
i think i found a solution. Eventually Vodafone Germany got V10E as last version . Probably they are still without gingerbread. i took the decision to download from xda the gingerbread rom and trying a manual update on my phone.

Code:

there is a collection of kdz check on that.

Job done .. i flash it! F U Vodafone GERMANY ! now i got gingerbread!
Ty guys anyway!

froyo 2.2.2 newest version?

Apparently i'm running the latest version 2.2.2 according to the update app. Is this right?
Handset is simfree and unbranded. would it have been better to be network branded?

Ok first of all you mean the app from the settings menu right? Secondly this is the latest froyo but the firmware has moved on to gingerbread 2.3.4. But i don't think you can do this update OTA(over the air). So you need lg update tool to update via pc connection. Hope i helped and sorry for this but before you post something do a search.. that is why there are forum rules. To obey them.

Fair play regarding the forum rules.
I've got the update tool installed on the pc stating. The Cell phone is the latest version already. So you don't need to update.
Country, uk
model lgp970
version v10b
Also pcsuite and all drivers installed,

It's a uk model, so can't as yet be upgraded by the lg tool

Nothing my friend. By the way you are lucky because whatever you choose surely will have english language.. do a little search and decide what is best for you. There is stock v20n rooted which is the european open. And there are some custom like zeus and marvel. Hope i helped.

Well, as far as i know LG programs can do that on pc. I have encountered one or two myself. I can't explain it. I don't know if yours is different. But my guess is there isn't a V20 rom released for your country. So check out this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1480392

even if no rom released for my country the R&D should work but apparently it isnt
so i need help upgrading to GB

[q] help with official jb 4.1.4 firmware

:cyclops:Hello friends of XDA
I recently saw a post on how to install INTETRNET JELLY BEAN (XXLRU) IN GALAXY NOTE N-7000.
My question is: THIS SOFTWARE SAYS BE FOR EUROPE, TO BE MORE SPECIFIC TO COUNTRIES United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain, Austria, Belgium, Italy Etc. THAT MAY AFFECT ME if you installed it, I AM FROM MEXICO AND MY OPERATOR IS TELCEL?
IN FACT HAVE INSTALLED THE SOFTWARE FROM GERMANY XXLRQ ICS 4.0.4.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION AND here are the links where I saw him.

There is no JB update available for Note yet, the information in that link is incorrect.
And it's mentioned in the same link that it's 4.0.4
"Select files that you have to flash or install on your phone, files found from the extracted files after download of Android 4.0.4 N7000 XXLRU"

I don't think that software was really jellybean. As far as I know there is no official jelly bean update for N7000 yet. If I was you I wouldn't flash it, go with an unofficial build in android development section. As for language, you can select on boot so shouldn't matter, but I would still stay away from this '4.1.4 leak'
Edit: was beaten to it ^^ as jeetu1981said ^^

thanks for the help

I'll be brave and try it out. YOLO? lol
I'll be brave and try it out guys, backing up my phone as we speak, I'll update you with screenshots if it actually works.
Hopefully this won't brick my phone (I've fixed quite a few bricked phones in the past so I should be alright)

Yes, I do understand the consequences, but I just wanted to try it out since no one seemed to have tried it yet and see if the leak is legit. If all else fails I'll just claim insurance for it.

Already such experiment was made with
Odin
CWM
Mobile Odin
Nothing was useful, and this kind of thread already burried 2 days ago.

seems to be an OTA update?

there's none ever official JB release yet. I bet Official JB would come perhaps early next year.. I doubt it'll be primed for this year as there's still too much devices that needs to be upsold and marketed (with official stock JB already, e.g. Note 2). Once the new stocks are being sold in the mainstream... then that will be the time the official JB would be released.

Check here for the latest version for your country: http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=1
For an example, the V10B is an update to V10A.
So, if you have for your country V10A, V10B, V10C, I would go to the latest (V10C).
