It's direct link to firmware in BIN/FLS format that can be used with SmartFlash to unbrick or fast flashing our phones.
Unfortunately we can't download this file with our web browser.
Is there any possibility to "cheat" LG servers, by modyfying HTTP packets (or something) to let us download this firmware?

I think that only B2B is able to download from there. It`s about security, username and password.

B2C only downloads kdz files. You only need to check out its userdata, and you will find it in there.
So I also dont know, how to get the bin files. I bet that anyone has either gotten them from a friendly LG customer service worker, or he/she him-/herself is a LG worker.
what means the code after OK IMEI...... LGP970 APRTTL 110K ...... DATE when you put the IMEI .... it`s show`s when the IMEI was first time activate or it show`s when the IMEI was created ? thanks
Do you mean this: DEC-31-2011+0.zip?If so, it means, when the software was finished, I think.

After lg update client extracted the kdz file, we'll get cab file and then it get extracted again and we get p970.dll and wdb file. I've check p970.dll and it has reference to AP download and CP download. If the update client did download the AP and CP file, a tcpdump or wireshark capture during the update might be useful. But more likely it just convert wdb to AP and CP using p970.dll before flashing the phone. That we need lg's proprietary tool to do the conversion.
Also, judging from url, i think the link is just for reference for their technian or something like that.

http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=IMEI lin doesn't work.... i wrote my emai and the pae is blank. can u help me?
Hey guys,
I tried something interesting today. I upgraded to the latest official firmware with the LG Mobile Update and it appears, that the .fls and .bin files are loaded into memory by LGUserCSTool.exe when the upgrading process starts. I verified this by dumping its memory and looking inside with a hex editor. That means the newest firmware .fls and .bin can be taken from there.
I had a hard time finding out where the files ended inside the dump, though. Also the bin file seems to be in multiple parts (LGP970_AP[0].bin, LGP970_AP[1].bin etc). So in the end, I didn't quite get there, but maybe someone more knowledgeable can improve on this?
Nice finding man. Somewhere to start. I've tried direct download with encoded url but failed miserably. Lol.

Try sniffing communication between LG and update. Also probably you need to have correct useragent set.
I tried that too. LG Update uses 2 user agents, none of them give access to the bins. Besides, the regular updater only downloads the kdz file which is available to everyone.

Okay, I'll keep it short and simple.
1. Got the phone and activated it. Running froyo
2. Rooted and installed CWM with the .bat one click file (I think it's the program MT wrote. It wasn't revotoolkit which I know is thecubed).
3. Realized I want to use gingervolt, so I need to update. I use the .bat file to un-root and go back to stock.
4. Try to manually push the OTA download through settings>about phone. Updates the phone to VS910ZV6 which is froyo 2.2.2
5. Try to update again (need gingerbread, which is VS910ZV7) and it keeps telling me "No new Software Update Available"
What gives? I'm thinking it may have something to do with the root? I also tried doing the manual update, you know the one floating around the internet using a .tot and LGNSP or whatever the acronym is, but Megaupload and Multiupload don't have the files anymore. Right now I'm downloading TheCubed's stock shipping rom and see if I can install it and get the update to go through.
Is there any fix that someone might know of? I ask because I've read several topics where people say they went down to stock shipping rom but they still couldn't update to gingerbread...then the topics just stop. Obviously they found their answer, so I'm hoping someone will share. I NEED TEH GINGERBREAD.
Thanks for all the help!
I had the same problem,
I was able to directly push GB using this method

Can it change the build version without changing the software?????
Tried to update, no avail. Nothing happens, I just get the "no software available" crap. Shouldn't it atleast try to update the build version? and is there a reason why it changed my build version to V4 but not my software?
Read the last few pages of the thread. I posted a link for the V7 Gingerbread .tot file that is linked to my dropbox account. I also posted a link somewhere around here for the LGPNST. I'll try to find the links.

ok so i got started with internet explorer quick question how big is the .tot file??? and then is the dll specific or is it universal with v7?
Three things:
1. I was able to open up that .dll with 7zip. if you right click and try to open with 7zip it wont work. Open 7zip and navigate to the zip, then extract it.
2. You'll have to download the .tot (and possibly the .dll) under IE. The .tot file is 637 megs.
3. The .DLL seems to be universal. Once you open it with 7zip it's the exact same size of the link he gave. I'm 53% into the upgrade so I'll let you know if everything went ok.
EDIT: added a third
Everything worked. Installing Gingervolt 1.3!!!!

[TOOL] LGExtract 0.2.1 + 0.3.0 (beta)
Updated instructions will be here in post #1 or #2, stay alert
Description:
Hello everyone, in the last two weeks I was developing a command line tool to extract the firmware of LG phones. (different models)
For now, this tool is able to successfully extract *.kdz and *.wdb files. The tool don't dump the firmware from the phone.
I would like to receive feedback about this tool, if it works or not with the files you have.
Please report any kind of error too.
Remember, this software aims to help the community of users of mobile phones from LG to change their roms in a fast and easy way.
I can't provide any guarantee that the extracted file is 100% correct. So stay tuned in what you are doing, don't blame me.
Basic usage:
Open a command prompt. (cmd.exe or powershell)
Browse to the directory where is located the LGExtract.
Run LGExtract for more information (help).
Guides: (more detailed)
P920 / P970
P990 - Thanks Keltek
Other phone models have different files. I don't have any idea on how you can use it! BE CAREFUL!
Automated tools: (based on LGExtract)
LG-P970 ROM CONVERTER - Thanks jes0411 (if you are noob, this if for you )
Other tools: (to use with files extracted by LGExtract)
replace recovery
Current features:
Extract KDZ files.
Extract WDB files.
Features to be implemented:
Merge extracted files automatically. (if file needs it)
Graphical User Interface.
Extract DZ files.
(none of these, sorry, the development is dead)

nothing happens when I try to run it, even if I put it in a same dir where a fw is.
What if you drag and drop over the app icon?
I'm not at my PC so i can't test this.

Hi navossoc,
Just tried your tool - extracted V20o kdz to a cab file, containing lgp970.dll and v20o.wdb
1 suggestion / 1 question
- would be nice to have a graphical interface, instead of command line
- what to do with the wdb file ?
Ok, another tiny suggestion - how about trying teamwork with the other devs and create a super flash/backup tool, that can backup a phone via PC and flash stock/custom ROMs, while providing a choice of what packages from the ROM to flash
Congrats for the software
If this tool is only intended to extract .wdb file from .kdz it makes nothing new... I archieved this a lot of time ago but is useless.

You guys need to use command line. Open cmd and type: LGExtract -kdz "path to kdz file"
Did you try LG Utils ?
It can extract wdb and kdz both.
I'm having problem while extracting .wdb bcoz it asks for FW ver. and dont know which ver I have maybe someone else knows his FW ver so he'll be able to successfully extract wdb

LG utils cant extract the new wdb, even if you pass the correct fw version. The dll that come in the new kdz files dont have the needed functions that lg utils use. And the kp500 dll obvously cant be used to extract other wdb files.

Yes, I can, but just as I said, I need a little more time to do all the error handling at the code. I don't wanna brick anyone phone.
I successful extracted the .wdb from LGP970 and got a .bin and a .fls file.
Then I used the SmartFlash Tool and flashed it at my phone. Works perfect.
The sha1 I got from the file was the exactly same as the "leaked" V10b-724-xxx bin/fls that we got available on the web.
I can extract any version, v10a, v10b, v20a, v20b, whatever
You can get any kdz from here and extract it to bin/fls.
Some phones has different file structures, but 920 and 970 has the same files bin/fls.

He is right, you can't run it with double click.

Yes, I already see LG Utils, I got the idea from there.
But, LG Utils can extract only KP500 and KS360.
I spent some time studing how they do that and I get it...
Now I can use the same idea in all .wdb files
For now it's useful for P920 and 970, because bin/fls can be flashed with SmartFlash Tool.
Others phones has different file structures, for example: LU620128 (I think P930) got a "firmware" file .tot with almost 1,3gb!

how convert .wdb in .bin
what about adding a tutorial on how to use this tool? i already extracted the cab, but now i guess i can extract *.wdb from the cab then use the tool again to extract the bin/fls using: LGExtract -wdb *.wdbpath? is that correct?
nope it doesnt work that way
navossoc have already said that the tool is only extracting kdz for now, the wdb functionality is being revised so he can release a stable tool.
Today, I'm releasing version 0.1.0 of the software that extracts only files *.kdz
I will try release the WDB support as soon as possible, but first, I have to review the code. (I don't wanna brick anyones phone )

My friends,
Some colleagues like to flash and restore roms too in developer devices (not for sale) like all did with KDZ updater everyday.
The question is: If KDZ isn't working with developer devices, then how we can flash it? How can we unlock it?
I discovered some things:
1 - KDZ is a encrypted file.
2 - Developers device has unlocked bootloader.
3 - I've tried many ways to flash kdz in this device, but it never concludes the process, never worked. It stops on "wparam=2010 iparam=18". There are diferents parameter varyating for each developer phone.
4 - We have to discover a new way to flash in this device, or we can decrypt the KDZ file.
*BINGO!* I DIT IT!
How to FLASH and Unbrick LG P880 Developer Edition
This procedure applies only for the initial LG P880 Developer Edition.
But how to know if your device is this version?
First, remove the back cover of your device and search for the words "not for sale". Then (if your phone still works), go to settings> about phone> Software Version. If the version of your device starts with the code V09a, V09b, V09c, etc. - This is a sign that your phone is the developer version!
This means you can not flashing KDZ files through the official LG updater. Even if you download the file separately, the only thing you will achieve is to brick your phone.
But our problems are over! I came to save you!:thumbup:
Procedure:
First, download the KDZ file of your choice here: http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=15
Second, download this firmware pack with DZ. File and proper .DLL File: http://bayfiles.com/file/bRZx/AZaxbu...GP880.v10A.rar
Third, download this drivers:
http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata...er-4.10(2).zip
http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/data/L...in7_LGEAll.zip
Fourth, download LG Flash Tool:
http://www.mediafire.com/?pzqr0gsw8u9erxl
We will definitely erase any record of your device. Unlike the KDZ method, this one makes a "ULTRA HARD RESET". Our device is not registered as selling model, yet the hardware is identical to the model of the consumer. We'll do the flash rom, and also unlock the device so that it is compatible with the KDZ flasher once and for all!
Once you’ve downloaded all the archives, let’s begin. Go to victory.
1. Extract “LGFlashTool 1.2” and instal "Setup_LGFlashTool_1.2.45.921.exe"
2.Replace the file LGFlashTool.exe into C:\LG\LGFlashTool ( You will crack the software with this )
3. Extract and Install “OMAPFlashInstaller-4.10(2).zip”
4.Exract “LGUnitedModemDriver_WHQL_ML_Ver_4.9.7_All_Wi n7_LG EAll.zip” and Install“LGUnitedMobileDriver_S497CA20_WHQL_ML_Ver_ 1. 0 .exe ” and“LGUnitedMobileDriver_S497MA20_WHQL_ML_Ver_1. 0 .exe ”
5. Turn Off phone, Remove your phone’s SIM and SD cards.
6.Press and hold voll up button in LG P880.
7. When you holding “voll up button” connect the USB cable.
8.When computer detects the new hardware (Omap4430) release “voll up button”.
9. Install the Driver.
10.After Driver installation, go to device manager and change the port “LGE CDMA USB SERIAL PORT” to “com41″.
11. Run LGFlashTool.
12.In DLL select the proper DLL file you’ve downloaded.
13. In S/W select only the proper DZ. File you’ve downloaded.
14.Choice (Check) “USB” and click OK.
15. Click on Port COM settings(COM plug icon) and select "1" ( Unmark the numbers above )
16. Click start(The Port 1 window should appear READY).
17.Disconnects USB cable and wait 5 seconds.
18. Press and hold voll up button in Lg P880 and connect USB cable.
19.The update process will begin automatically after that release the “vol up”.
20. When the progress bar reaches 100%, the phone will power on and boots automatically!
21. Done! You did it!
22. Now go and flash a KDZ file as your choice using KDZ updater! Your phone was’nt more a developer phone! We transformed it on a consumer phone edition! Wow!
Id like to thanks all if you!
And dont forget to thanks hitting the "thanks" button!

Have a nice weekend :good:
Think you made a lot of happy campers out there - impressive!
I think this tutorial should be "fixed" on the top of the " Optimus 4X HD Q&A ".
Someone should pay a beer to Xavier, he maid a great job !
Just one thing Xavier, the " firmware pack with DZ. File and proper .DLL File: http://bayfiles.com/file/bRZx/AZaxbu...GP880.v10A.rar" takes me to a dead end (need to register...), the drivers links are dead
Can you fix that ?
Tnx
Hey guys i discovered some things.
We can create a new DZ. file. And a dll can be extracted. Soon I will share how to create a new way using a kdz. file!

But Xavier, thats easy... every time you select "start upgrade" in R&D Test Tool (after you choose a .kdz file) it generates a .cab file.
You just need to extract what's inside of the V10x.cab ... it will be a .dz file and the .dll, in this case "X3_2008_v0.0.6.9"
I didn't explore a lot that "OMAPFlashInstaller" yet, not a lot of time for that now
Just a curiosity, the .dz file extracted from a V10f_00.kdz is good as well, or needs to be exactly the V10a_00.kdz?
Thanks

Thank you, downloading now.
Downloaded everything except for these, the first one works very very bad, the second stops after 50-90MB (i Know, they are the same file).

I presume you're talking about this link: http://bayfiles.com/file/bRZx/AZaxbu/.kdz_et_.dz_.dll_LGP880.v10A.rar
If you use JDownloader you can do it in 5-10 minutes (depending on your Internet speed...)
I start to download it 2 minutes ago, 3MB/s in 3 minutes it will be finished.
I'll try to upload to 4shared
This file contains:
- LGP880AT-00-V10a-EUR-XXX-MAY-23-2012+0.dz
- V10A_00.kdz
- X3_2008_v0.0.6.9.dll
Like I mentioned before, to have a .dz file it's just needed the .kdz file.
Once that you'll need it to flash, it's enough when you download the .kdz that you want.

Yes my friends, i will fix it very soon! Its 13:40 here in Brazil, I'm working now. When I go home I will do that!
@RuedasLocas-the problem is not the speed, I download it with ~1MB/s. The problem is that I tried downloading ~10 times, and it stops after 50, 90, 27, etc (up to 500) MB. It stops like it finished downloading and then the archive is corrupt. Maybe a different hosting service would be better.
Anyway, thank you guys for your help!

Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
TechGR, you don't need that!
Grab the UpTestEX_mod2_marwin.exe (R&D Test tool) select the KDZ file that you want to install in your phone, hit the "Start Upgrade" and the programe will creat in the same folder where you have the "UpTestEX_mod2_marwin.exe" a .cab file. Even if you don't connect the phone, nothing...
As soon as you see that cab file in the folder, use winRAR to extract the DZ file and the DLL.
The "kdz-update" that I provide here:
http://www.4shared.com/rar/Re4VCOAS/kdz-udpate.html
Arghhhh again
Ok, I tried that, but it did not make any CAB file. However, I decrypted the KDZ using the same tool, and I ended up with a .dz file and a .dll file. I suppose these are the files I need
Well, I followed the tutorial from the first post exactly, except I used the two files I extracted. When I get to step 16 and I click Start, the port 1 does not appear ready (nothing happens).
I'm sure we're gonna sort it out soon, I gotta run now.

and waste a unlocked dev edition phone?
i mean think about it..
this is a rare device..
Hi if someone is interested i have upgrade method that uses lg suite.
You need to have installed apache2 server on your computer (from XAMPP, WAMPP or something else).
Works only for stock roms (i tried only from 28e to 28g and it was successfuly)
1. Download attached file.
2. Unpack in directory C:/sites (make it if you dont have it).
3. Conect your phone to lg suite and download newest version for ics.
4. Try to upgrade software (You'll get latest version message).
5. Exit lg suite.
6. enter http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=Your_imei in your browser (Your_imei replace with your imei device)
7. You should get response in your browser. Right click on page -> select view page source -> then save source in C:/sites/lgupdate/csmg/b2c/client/ directory (overwrite previous file).
8. edit this xml file and replace urls in sw_url and sw_locale_url with http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGP990/AROMDW/V30a_00/V30A_00.kdz (my phone is for romania but I think it will work for everyone ) do not touch tags only replace urls (remove blanks from link sorry I can't post links).
9. download kdz file from kdz leaker link (look in dev section) and copy it to C:/sites/lgupdate/swdata/WEBSW/LGP990/AROMDW/V30a_00/ directory
10. now setup server. First you edit file: windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts (for winXP, and file is without extension)
11. add following line: 127.0.0.1 csmg.lgmobile.com
12. find apache vhosts file and add following lines:
Code:
Listen 9002
<VirtualHost *:9002>
DocumentRoot "c:/sites/lgupdate"
ServerName csmg.lgmobile.com
ServerAlias csmg.lgmobile.com
DirectoryIndex index.php
<Directory "c:/sites/lgupdate">
AllowOverride All
Allow from All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
13. restart apache server
14. now start again lg suite and you should be able to upgrade your phone same way like from lg server.
15. when new upgrade occurs you'll have to edit auth_model_check2.jsp file from 8. and enter new name.
I successfuly upgraded from 28E to 28G without loosing any data, but I think it should work with all stock roms and new lg suite. This method unroots phone and removes cwm if you have it installed but preserves all your data and old apps.
When you want to have acces to lg servers (to download new kdz or something else) you have to delete line from hosts file ( step:11. ) and just wait couple minutes browser to refresh DNS.
Very clever ! I really like your proposal.
But after step 8 why dont you launch directly LG update software ?
It should find the .kdz on the net at given URL, no?

You have to trick lg suite to think that csmg.lgmobile.com server is on your local server.
But by doing this you loose access to real lg server so you must place kdz file inside your local file system as explained in tutorial.
I recorded responses from real lg server when lg-suite queries a latest firmware. Its in a file auth_model_check2.jsp.
Oops I found mistake you must download kdz before anything not in step 13.
Vosetal,
If you can change the thread subject to how to updateLEAKED stock roms via lg suite it will be helpful

Sorry it is my error. You must do call this page form lg servers BEFORE you alter hosts file in windows. Also you must download kdz before because when insert line in hosts file you lose connection with real server (till you remove line or comment it with #).
is it possible to go from v20s to v30a with this method?
here in portugal v30a isnt yet available... my phone is unlocked to any carrier.
edit: forget it... i used smartflash... quick n easy
Didn't the OP forget to mention we need apache server installed?

Make sure you have followed guide properly, disable modem if you have it (i kept drivers from root method which doesnt have modem) and make sure Windows enabler is on. Log runs for a long time when I flash, about 15 minutes before it finally reboots

put the Firmware kdz in the "kdz-update" folder.
Run "UpTestEX_mod2_marwin" like if you were flashing the phone.
when you hit "upgrade" in the program, it will creat a temp .cab file like "V10x.cab" in the same folder "kdz-update", you need to be fast and select and copy (or drag&drop) that file to other location, desktop for example...
after you get the .cab, you just need to extract the .dz and .dll files with winrar, winzip, or other.
