What firmware is your phone using now?
If it says Egypt then you will have to get KDZ by manual link. There is a thread how to do that, but I can't find it now.

Try with lg rom converter and smartflash?

It might be a good idea to flash it since they some times update the updater(preparing for 2.3.4). Except that I cant think of any reason why you would need to update. Maybe for the practice so you know how to do it when you are to install the 2.3.4?
About the arabic or persian language. I think (some on that can comfirm it?) that they are inside the euro-open firmware. To get it download and follow the producers described in this thread.

PS don't forget to backup every thing with CWR.

you should upgrade to v10e it's good stock rom

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] XMM6160 baseband

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...
Click to collapse
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

[Q] Flash ROM

Hello,
I want to change my stock rom on Optimus 4x HD but i'm not sure what do i have to do. I saw some threads about this but most of the links are expired. Right now i have : Android version 4.0.3; Baseband L6260.....02.1216.01; Software version V10d. Can someone provide me some instructions or working links? Thank you
First you need to do update to JB on your 4X HD then root him and unlock bootloader.Then you can flash custom roms.
Use this tut for update to JB http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069723
Rooting and unlocking bootloader tut search here on XDA
Sent from LG 4X HD using Tapatalk 2
u dont need to update through kdz. stock rom can update through lg center. the kdz method is used when u cant boot the phone after a mistake u did.
