You don't even know what question you are asking. Firmware is software. Read, read and read some more until you at least understand the basics. :banghead:

If you plan to root the OB, don't upgrade to V10D coz still can not root, but V10B can

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

Hey Doc,
I am still om LR6 and software update shows "no update" I had the same issue last time as well and then I had to use Kies. I usually keep all files related to software update deleted from system as they keep running in background and copy them again to system to check for any update, could this be the reason for no OTA?
And what method do you suggest to update- Kies or odin? I am rooted with stock Kernel and almost all "possible" stock apps removed. I know I will loose root and all apps will be back in both methods
First there is no OTA update still in india after LR6.
And if you have disable software update related app then you won't get it.
I prefer Odin Odin and Odin only.

Ohh, I though there might be one after reading OP , by the way I enabled OTA by copying all files back to system. but if there is no OTA then how can it show something, lol. Thanks will stay on LR6 then.
Thanks a ton

Since you are on a German ROM, so logically you should get all German updates whether through kies or OTA, but Indian updates are a no go.
You can later flash Indian version of LRQ using odin once available, I am sure Dr.Ketan will upload it same day

[Q] I flashed Jelly Bean firmware from Russia, should I update it via Kies.

Hello I am new here and this is my first post.
I flashed the Jelly Bean update via Odin, its version was I9070XXLPY, now when I connect my phone to my PC and launch Samsung Kies, it tells me that an update is available, a new firmware I9070XXLQ4 is available.
My question is that should I update it via Kies or not, is it safe?

Thanks a lot for the quick answer my friend, I have added a thanks to you.
Something I don't understand, how will I damage my phone if I update it via kies? Isn't that stuff like, Official
And by the way, you are from the same country as I am, any ideas when we might receive the Indian Official version of Jelly Bean for i9070?

Lol. Thanks
And it might not damage your phone, but why take a risk? So, just clarified it to you
Well, I heard that we would be getting jelly bean by mid april, but still no update so far!
Samsung is just postponing the update I'm also waiting for the update :fingerscrossed:

Just one last small thing, for future reference, currently I will update to firmware LQ4, and when in future the Indian JB update rolls out, can I download it from sammobile.com and flash it over Russian LQ4 formware via Odin?

Read the noob-how-to section at the Q and A section.
How to downgrade? Go for gingerbread. Download SmartFlash tool (link in the thread of noob-how-to) and download the .bin and .fls files for that v20 firmware of OB, V20c ir v20N i think but those files are available for download on that link and make sure you have LG drivers installed. Follow the instructions on using and flashing smartflash tool, only takes 3 mins to flash. Goodluck.
