you can flash official ICS with SmartFlash Tool, the thread is stickied in general, and you can get the KDZ from here http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=1 (any 30b will work thou I suggest EU OPEN) extract the bin and fls with LGEExtract (this one is in android development).
after you've extracted the bin and fls files you must procceed to flash thru Smart flash tool.

May I ask some question regarding rooting and flashing rom using SFT?
Will all of the data in my phone will be wiped if I were using SFT to root my phone?
So as for upgrading or downgrading your current rom, will this may loss all of the data on my phone as well?
If so, is there are any method that can backup the data in my phone before I am going to root my phone using SFT?

Yes. All data will be wiped no matter what.
About backing up, there are many 3rd party apps for it. Just that apps might not be backed up
And
Yes. SFT can root it by using a patched bin.

To backup contacts I use Google, SMS backup&restore and call backup&restore both are available in the playstore for apps I just start fresh and install them as I see fit, some from play store and some thru titanium backup.

If I update my phone to the stock 2.3.4, will it be like any other flash? What i mean is that if I do that, it will delete any root history or any " warranty breaker " stuff, so as to the phone to be clean.
Ty.
I'm not sure, but I think, it will completly refresh /system etc.
But your personal data like apps (non su) will be available after the update.
Otherwise wipe everything in cwm and do this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1448803
Do you want to send you phone to repaircenter, or why do you have this question?

Can someone get me the ROM for the stock 2.3.4 v20o ?
Because i updated from my rooted 2.2.2 v10f and now its all messed up.
For exemple, in Quadrant i had scores of 1500 / 1600
Now i have 1000/1100
I have superuser, and i cant use it, such as the other ROOT programs.
Need it fast, so i can flash it using SmartFlash
Choose here your desired stock Rom: http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=1
Needs kdz tool. Search in XDA for an tutorial. If you understand spanish try this: http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=295655

Have you used download mode while using kdz?, it worked for me, but in another device so use it at own risk
1- Grab your .kdz from here: http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=1
2- Download LGExtract tool from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566532
3- If you follow the instructions on pages 1 and 3 of LGExtract thread, you will end with your AP and CP files, ready to be flashed with SFT.

Only smartflash but if you want to back stock for warranty you have to flash ROM from your carrier. If you bought phone from carrier ofcourse . If not you can use clean stock by smartflash.

Still cant do anything. What can be wrong?
Sent from my LG-P970 using Tapatalk
What happens when you use smartflash ?
I ask because smartflash cleans everything and if you get a flash stock ROM without root you have phone like from the factory .

I found out how to flash a patched stock Rom so i could install a custom Rom, which i did, I flashed Marvel.
But Which one is better, Marvel or Zeus?
Both roms are great.
I think, Zeus has a better performance, but Marvel a bigger support of themes etc.
But you can try it for yourself. Flash one of them via cwm, if you like, use this and if not, flash the other via cwm.
I prefer cm7/miui, maybe you can look at this roms too.

Presently, i am using Zeus 6.39 ROM...
I have some doubts..
As in a month or two, ICS is going to be released, so I wanted to know best suggestions and procedure to upgrade to ICS.
I think it's not possible to upgrade to ICS from Zeus 6.39 ROM, phone may get bricked.
My plan is to Flash the Official ROM that is country related and is official release. Then upgrade to ICS with LG update tool. Other than this if there is any best procedure to upgrade without bricking or difficulties, please suggest me & it will also be helpful for so many people.
Don't comment on this post or create flame for time-pass.
Why are you giving by fact that LG will upgrade the international OB?

Too optimistic post . BTW just to inform you, if and if your country got the ICS update over OTA then check xda back if your country version (or similar) has been posted here as backup or flashable zip. Download it and flash or restore by CWM. Dont not install superuser as it will be going after update anyway Now you can check LG update tool or OTA, menu in mobile->about option. Thats nnot much tough. Is it?

I think no need of new trick for rooting ICS
Bcoz....as we have ROM Converter & CWM injector....we can download the ROM and inject CWM...
so, we can have rooted ICS...
Let us have a try when it releases..

Wot did you mean? ROM convertor or injector is not new thing (may be for OB) if it was like this then all mobiles (android based) will need just a converter to do it for any version rooting. Have you listen about "bootlocker"? And if wot you say will happen then only thing will be left to port ROM convertor to any models and dats all.
I didn't know about bootlocker
so it mean ROM converter is only for OB for only Gingerbread ? not for ICS ?
Any official firmware of India as zip to flash? Not rooted firmware
Wanting this bcoz of afraid of flashing smartflash, maybe I get brick my phone
Now using Zeus ROM,
Wish to get official ics from official gb
For smart flashing .bin file for CP bin and .fls file for AP bin (right) ?
Somewhere in instructions, it as reverse, that's y asking..

I think it is impossible...
Because you need root to have cwm, and when you flash lg official rom it will overwrite cwm (effectively delete cwm)...

buddy, if you want to "flash", then you will need CWM. for that, u need root. :silly: the question, in itself, is a bit puny and asinine

Nobody wants official rom as CMW zip. What's use of that if u still rooted u can't claim ur warranty to LG.

After flashing I don't need root or cwm

If I had time, I might flash with sft an Indian Firm and make with cwm an backup.
But I think it will brick your phone through the official update, or how you uninstall cwm?
I prefer to wait for a finished custom cwm zip.
I still dont get, why you dont flash it with smartflash What's so hard about it? And after, it will definitly be unrooted.
If we flash stock official, then no need to unroot, as it is not rooted

Just use SmartFlash.
Its better than what your trying to do.
There isn't a stock zip file because its useless and much easier to use SmartFlash.

Flash a patched v20 with cwm, then from recovery flash my repack, or marvel, or izs, ... this is the way you have to go or use an experimental process, which might hardbrick your phone. I wont point you to it, since it seems your not advanced enough.
