You already have "the best official firmware" on your phone right now, it is Stock Android 2.2. There is no other official firmware available at the time.

[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] How to get origin of phone? Force update?

Hello everyone!
I've got a P990 with UK charger, but the box has "HKG" and "Certified for use in Hong Kong" printed on it.
When I try to update it with the LG Update Tool, it says it can not be updated, the phone is not supported.
- How can I find out, what is my phone's origin?
- How can I force a fully official update via LG updater? Is there a ROM, that I should flash before?
Thanks, Daniel

Are you on stock ROM? if NOT, you need to flash STOCK ROM first ( v10f FROYO Hongkong version), then you use the LG updater. as i can see in your signature, your on CM, you will not get any update.
Of course before the ROM update I've flashed back the stock rom. The Euro Open. That'S why I'm asking, which stock rom should I flash first.
Can I look it up based on the IMEI or the S/N?

You said that your phone is from Hongkong, so you need to flash the "original Hongkong Stock Froyo ROM" before using the LG Updater. Or you can the download the Gingerbread Hongkong Update from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1035041 and use Smartflash http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1008070...

Yes, you can, there is a link floating round that you add your IMEI to and it'll give you a link.

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

If you want you can root your device with gingerbreak and then flash a rooted gingerbread update from here. Sorry that i couldn't help.

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

ICS 4.0.4 official Update for SGS+ available , is it true ?

Hi Friends,
Today I got a message from My Service Provided (Airtel) that the official ICS 4.0.4 is available for your samsung device and visit Samsung.com/in site. I had only one samsung device that is SGS+ (GT-i9001). Inorder to check that I dont have the original stock ROM with me as I already upgraded to so many custom ROMs. But only if using original Kies will show if the update is available or not.
Does any one else got to know about this news? Can someone with Original Stock ROM can check this is true or not?
Cheers,
Kirankumar.
got a link for us?
no i think that it is not true

Their is no further update for the Galaxy S i9000. Android 2.3.6 is the very latest.
I argue that Samsung should have released it with Touchwiz 4.5 instead of 3.0.
i dont think so

i dont use kies... i used once and didnt work properly for me so i leave it
Cant check via Kies
I cannot check via Kies, as I m using CustomROM (BroodROM B E 1.2). I tried to connect to PC via Kies, its not even getting connected.
Also I lost my Stock ROM which was pre installed, and I believe only if check via the original installed Stock, Kies will show the update according to the region. That's why I mentioned, if anyone having such stock can give a try and check if the update is available or not.
Probably we'll never get official support ICS

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).
