Bought this phone less than a week ago.
I am mad that I did not take a backup of the stock ROM
Immediately flashed it with CM7. Unstable performance, dropped calls, USB problems. I even tried Kang's version but not much success.
So I wanna rollback to stock ROM until some stable CM release comes along. I bought this phone in India.
Any good samaritan willing to share the ROM that I can flash my phone with.
Mucho gracias.

Sweet love of god. Hallelujah.
Is it safe or even recommended to grab other nations firmwares and when the phone boots just select your language? Then I imagine you would just need to set the APN's and done?
Or is there more to it then that?
It's safe (except for korean rom)

On the website there are multiple versions for India
V10A
V10B
V10D
V10F
V10G
How do I determine the right version?
The file extension is .kdz I believe some separate software is needed for flashing to stock ROM or will CWM recovery work here?
Gracias

my country isn't listed there.. I live in canada so which one should I download?
same question for me. I'm from the Philippines so... Do I just flash the AU ROM? What's the worse thing that can happen if we flash a wrong rom?

i'm from the philippines, im still on stock and its BIN_LGP990AT-00-V10b-ESA-XXX-APR-21-2011+0.
It doesn't really matter what version you use. Worst case scenario is you lose some functions you had originally. But then you just try another version
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.)
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.

Hey guys-
Looked for a thread about this and didn't find anything.
I read in some blog that in order to flash my stock rom to cyanogenmod 7.2, I need to have the latest gingerbread update.
a) is this true?
b) if so, how do I do it? Do I have to root it again once I get an official update?
thanks!
a. Nope. 2.3.4 is good. You can use 2.3.6 but not needed.
b. Yes, but as I said 2.3.4 works.
My baseband (stock ROM when I flashed CM is called baseband) is XXKPK 2.3.4. It works perfectly. But you need stock 2.3.6 from your country otherwise, 3G and GPS will not work.
So I purchased the phone in the country I live in - that mean I'm good to go?

Yes, as long as your phone is 2.3.x (Gingerbread) it's alright to flash CWM and then flash custom roms, don't have to be the latest version (2.3.6).

Yes. But if you want to update it to 2.3.6 you need to find a stock ROM from your country at samfirmware.com. But you don't need to update, because 2.3.4 is good. Now it depends on you.
Hi there, i read few threads about baseband problems. i found this in older post (not my phone lol)
Details of my phone are
1) Model Number : LG P970
2) Android Version : 2.2.2
3) Baseband Version : XMM6160
4) Kernel Version : 2.6.32
5) Build Number : FRG83G
6) Software Version : LG-P970-V10d
Click to expand...

so i guess this answer one of my question, that xmm6160 is froyo baseband the v10x or whatever. ??? is it correct ??
if it does than it would answer my second question, that i can flash any BB no matter if its from froyo, gb, ics and it should work with the phone. am i correct in this or not???
so now the question is, if my phone have xmm6160 BB and everything works fine except the auto time and date. should i flash v30 baseband? you think its worth it ?? is there a way for me to backup my current BB or i need togo the long way and extract it from the KDZ.
last question: if LG didnt release ICS in my region will the v30 BB work in my region, as far as i understand it may not work properly ?? am i correct ??
thanks

Try it... If that dont work, reflash your v10 baseband. That will take 5min
I suggest to download Clock Sync. Uncheck automatic time in option and use clock sync

thank you for your reply, i will try clock sync, about the flashing of BB im guessing that the post i found is indeed a v10 BB bcs the guy said that is phone is still in stock and unrooted, if i extract the v10e KDZ, is there a way to verify the BB version before i flash it??
BB version can be different for each country. A v10e from USA or v10e from EUR will have a different bb
If you want the good BB, take it from your country stock rom. Just need to flash the .fls file

am i correct that all custom roms do not have a bb ? if that is so, then my phone has the xmm6160 which is suppose to be from my old stock v10e
and if im correct about the above, than i should not even try to flah v30 bb, cause my country has only v10x version and not even v20 so ill stick to current BB i got.
and if im wrong can xmm6160 be a gingerbread BB?? that was flash when i had zeus 6.4 or marvel v9 cm7 or cici??
how can i verifay the .fls file that is xmm6161 file or maybe different ver. ??
thanks so much for clearing this stuff for me. :good:
Exactly, custom rom dont have BB. You are on which rom?
That depend... Im on IZS with the EUR baseband and automatic time work perfectly(im from canada). V30 bb fixed auto time problem. But im not sure if v30 bb will be good with your v10d rom. I can only say, try it
