[Q] LG updater says...

Hi,
This weekend I flashed my phone to the latest official GB ROM that came out here in The Netherlands (V20m). Now when I run the updater it syays there is a update for my phone. When I try to update it says:
"software update is not supported for this model"
What could be the reason, anyone a guess?
I think the tool needs some rest, as it worked to hard from flashing all the LG updates
I'm also experiencing this and would like to know if it's normal or not... Because, what if ICS came out next year and I'm unable to update my phone because of this! Haha!!!
Have you rooted your phone? Cause mine is rooted already when I tried this.
Don't know though if this has something to do with the update tool from LG... Because when I updated my phone from Froyo to Gingerbread, my phone was already rooted and the updater seems to work fine. I was able to update my phone from Froyo to Gingerbread without any problem.
No my phone is not rooted right now.

Hello!
I would say it is just the (sorry) crappy LG Updater - it just means there is no newer update.
Will ota work with rooted phone,for minor updates i mean

As long as it can start the LG recovery/flash software it is not a problem. If you flash CWM it does not work anymore as far as I know.

[Q] cannot update my galaxy note rooted

i rooted my galaxy note,
now when i go to software update
it doesnt update it
it doesnt even opens
like it used to give an error that no updates available before i rrooted it..
helppp
what rom are you using?
its stock rom.. inbuilt that i got with my cell
As far as I ma aware, if you updated a rooted device you will lose root. Your best bet is to find the stock ROM you want (and that may take a bit of searching) and flash it manually.

[Q] LGMobile update service PROBLEM! Help Please?

Hi all!
Few days ago i updated my lg p990 via LGMobile update service to 2.3.4 Gingerbread V20m with no problems. I`m from Serbia btw. Then i rooted my phone and installed clockwork recovery to backup my rom. I made a mistake to do that after i performed root so now when i restore my rom the phone is rooted again and i can`t use update utility anymore! It says my model is not suported. I then used SuperOneClick to unroot and r1-stockrecovery-2x-unsigned zip to remove recovery and it did that but still can`t update or restore original stock V20m rom with update utility. I even managed to install V20l ROM and baseband via Smartflash and offcourse still no update posibility and "not supported model" message. Yesterday i downloaded from XDA, Netherland stock V20m but, guess what, still not supported. Can anyone tell me how to or what to do to make my phone update officialy again with LG tool. THNX in advance

Well you have go download correct files. I don't remember very well where the download location is.
But I have managed to do full installation of original lg software over the cyanogenmod.
There is a step by step guide on this forum how to do this.
I am from Croatia and after that my phone accept automaticly update.
Now I am on Cyanogenmod because it is so much better than stock.

I downloaded stock V20m rom from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1035041 and still not supported with update. Can u please find what u did and post here!? I don`t know what i didn`t try and nothing worked so far. And i have GPS isue so i have to restart phone with gps ON and then it works. I didn`t have that problem when i updated to V20m first time. I have read that it`s a problem on V20l but not on V20m. U said u use custom rom!? Is everything working properly!? No workarounds to make something work like this GPS problem!?

[Q] Official update problem

I`m from Serbia, I made a backup with nandroid on my LG P990 , after that i`ve updated using kdz to v20m version. As i had some problems i flashed back the v20l i had via clockworkmod. Now i have unrooted my phone, connected to pc, fired up the updater, and it says that i have the latest v20m, duobble checked the phone, it reports v20l. How could i force the updater to perform the update to v20m ?

You need to flash an older baseband.
Flashed 1035.21_20110614 baseband. Now the phone reports LGE version v20l, but the LGMobile Support Tool is reporting Version V10C, and says that the cell phone is the latest version already, and that i dont need to update.
Is this means, that for my phone the latest update is V20L ?
Thanks.

I'm on V20g here in the UK so I would of thought that if your phone say V20L you will have the most upto date rom.
I have just checked and there is no updates for me either saying my phone is upto date.
Most probably i will have to wait for an update. Tried to flash the v20q.kdz tried both methods, with and without http server. It is always asking for internet connection... Now flashed another baseband, updater reports v10d phone reports 1035.21_20110725 iirc this baseband version is in v20l. I desperately want to solve the GPS lock problem, but maybe i still have to wait. Unless i try to flash the V20M via clockwork, i`ve done before, but i dont remember is it working there.

I have 2.2 Froyo... Need help

Hello, I'd like to update my phone using Smartflash.
I have an official V20B rom which is rooted. I would like to install a new official rom but i'm completely lost when it comes to choosing the right version !
Where can I get the official V20S stock rom (which can be installed with smartflash)
Also, is there any official ICS rom ? (same, for smartflash), if so, is it fully stable ? Where can I get it ? (LG Mobile update says my phone is up to date... Huh)(I have read that you need to change the boot partition or something like that with ICS roms, is it valid for official ICS roms from LG too ?).
Do I have to unroot my phone before installing a new rom with Smartflash ?
Thanks.

1. Make sure that you have P990.
2. V20B should be a gingerbread.
3. If you read one post below yours, you could’ve find exactly what you ask official ICS for smartflash.
Cheers.

I actually have V10B sorry !
I will update via LG Tools with the kdz instead of smartflash. Is there anything to do specifically to keep my data in the phone or is it saved automatically in the LG Tools update process ?
Thanks

I think updating via LG Tool doesn't erase data on your phone... however I would strongly advise you to synchronize your contacts with gmail and backing up you apps with titanium backup in an external sd card.
Update via LG Tool didn't erase my data when I went from 2.2 to 2.3
