Hi,
I just checked p970 firmwares and i saw this :
http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGKU5900/AKTFTL/V20t_00/V20T_00.kdz
It seems to be a new version of GB, but maybe the battery drain from v20Q is corrected...
Could anyone test it (I can't due to my immediate need of my phone)
but basically, Q version is not an asian fw. so maybe this new T is the same as Q but for asia...
Yes maybe,
But what i've not seen is that this firmware is made for KTF, so i doubt it is open for other SIM cards...
if a device is unlocked, a branded FW shouldn't affect that

FW simlock doesn't exist on Android ?
it's device related, FW version doesn't matter
Ok, i didn't know
Is there something new?
yea, if you would, you may flash a sfr branded FW over your orange FW

I'm testing it this night since i'm back at home !
Will update this thread when tested
I just need an advice, since it's a rom for LGKU5900, can installing this could brick my OB ?

I don't think it would brick your phone as I'm currently using a KU5900, and flashed p970's v20o. just don't flash the radios..

Thank you, but i won't have the time to test it before september so i doubt it would be useful at this time...
Can anyone else try it ?
????

I couldn't and i won't be able to before september... sorry !

Hopefully. But I won't be flashing it immediately if it does. I rely a lot on stock-based kernels. So i'll wait for either DooMKernel or F(X)TrinityUltimateKernel to be updated. Maybe those who already got the update could share with us any changes or improvements?

The kernel should be the same, I doubt a small update like this will have major kernel changes
When I get home I will update and install Doom's advanced stock kernel to gain root again.
I will let you know if it works, but I imagine it will be fine

No.. But Easy Root work just fine so you need to root it again..
BTW, I've posted latest FTF in main thread, it's from Vodafone DE.
Just checked PCC but it's not online for me yet! Now I wait.....
Hi Greg,
Have you tried the .118 ROM yet? If so, any difference from .108?
Regards,
Alan
Hot Hot Hot!!
Hi Guys and Gals,
Been running this on my C6903 overnight, and boy is it hot. In fact my device was so hot too the touch that it was almost unbearable.
Because of this I've had to revert back to the '108' build. Is it just me, or is anybody else experiencing this?
Also, on every boot there is a notification relating to mobile data, is this specific to vodafone?
If anybody has another ftf aside from this German one, I would be extremely grateful if you can post it, so that I test and compare, thanks in advance.
Very strange, I finally got around to flashing this and I stayed on the same version, same kernel, same baseband.
Pccompanion said I was up to date now but nothing changed.
Oh well.
Hey guys quick question, i am currently living with my long suffering firmware that is jellybean...the phones needing a good clean out and update!
So i was wondering if there is a UK regional FTF for the latest kit kat?
BUT ALSO! i have seen generic ES (Spain) Regional FTFs for Kit Kat and i will be moving to Spain in September.. so should i just go a head and flash that? i don't know the difference between ES & UK (not that i have managed to find a UK version, maybe someone could point me in the right direction)
Also are these FTFs available for rooting? my phone is currently rooted with CWM and will most likely want to re-root after i have flashed with flashtools..
sorry to ask such nooby questions
Thanks
Chris

The UI is a bit different with lot of bloatware removed.
Battery drain will be there initially but it will disappear after play store automatically updates.
Hitting thanks will be more appreciated than typing it

I had rooted using the old school method because towelroot was not availabe then
Towelroot will work to root and its the easiest way at the moment.
After rooting just download and install SuperSU from play store.
After flashing firmware Bootloader wont be locked again
Kernel and Root are two different things
You will have to flash recovery again though as flashing firmware will remove the recovery
You can get the recovery from here
Dont follow root instructions from the link as you will be rooted after using towelroot

Try the above mentioned feedback aswell, that could be the issue.
I had this problem a year or two ago with this exact phone, turned out to be the cable. Perhaps try a different cable, one that isn't half torn to shreds helps.

Ive tested rr at first it was very perfect but after few months my phone got a lots of bugs and i back to last official freamware.i hope you get more money and buy a new phone

I know that the phone isnt good for gaming but I want to know how to do all those stuff.
And maybe flashing the stock firmware again with a modified kernel could help for the meantime.
