Hi
Kies killed me when I was just trying to update to Froyo officially. Since then I used Odin 1 click and everything seems ok, except for the fact that its att now. I want to eventually get to official rogers 2.2 froyo with no gremlins lurking hidden in the file system. I downloaded the i896 rogers 2.2 rom. How can I install it so that my phone will be stock 2.2? Same boot loader, same rom, same everything as if the update had gone smoothly through kies. I want it to be rogers only.
Well, thanks to all for you help.
And a special thanks to the Kies programmers. I have bricked devices trying to install unofficial things before but I have never bricked a phone through official channels, Amazing work guys amazing.
Thanks to the xda community for again saving my rear
I think if you search there is a Odin for a stock rogers. I will have to look....

Hi,
more problems. Even though ODIN said it was sucessful it just went to the battery icon. Now the phone shows att logo for a second, reboots and does it again. Not even sure if I can get back to download mode! All this for a friggin official update!
ok I need to calm down. But this is really upsetting
I have a AIO rogers 3.0 tool kit, and I have a stock rogers rom. I do not however know how to get it onto my phone. The odin program just has start.
The rogers AIO program has back up to stock but always says cannot communicate with device.
Please help, I have no idea why things have been so messed up.
same happen to a friens of mine that wanted to flash unleashthebeast...and he changed his mine after and i odin one clicked and it did the same...luckily he was under 30 days...but only other option is a jig.

oh and if u can get into download mode your good....if not...a jig
Seriously?
The only way to recover this phone is to make some crazy usb solder jiggy?
My phone shows only ATT or if USB is plugged in, a battery icon. No button combo is working for DL mode, where as it was before.
Any ideas on how else I could get this phone into dl mode?
Thanks again

Looks like you and I have a similar issue. Subbing to thread for hope.
What about using the AIO toolkit to at least get a working ATT branded phone? I too used the AIO toolkit to flash a custom rom on my Rogers phone and yes, though I don't believe it was supposed to the AIO toolkit put the ATT stock on rather than Rogers stock. However, at least you'd have a working phone at that point. Unless you need to return your phone you can use it as is until you find a proper solution.
I know it's a stopgap solution but working improperly is better than not working at all.

ATT bootscreen problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11327700&postcount=209
in case some of those guys confused you, a jig only helps you if you cant get into download mode. you already flashed successfully after the brick, right? you dont need a jig. follow the instuctions above.
if you get AIO toolkit working (rogers edition) DONT USE A PIT FILE, DONT RE-PARTITION, (pit file is for partitioning). the rogers stock images dont have dbdata to work after repartition. this is what screwed me the other day., and i was forced to use ODIN1 Click. and now have the same ATT bootscreen as you.
as im in the same boat ive been researching and the above method wont work. its only for i9000 based roms. not the stock based roms like the att. and the fix replaces a file named logo_ATNT.jpg (AT&T)
this *fix* isnt too much of a *fix* and i have yet to come across a rogers flash that will replace this att crap.
So that means if we were to return our captivates for a refund, we're stuck with the split second AT&T boot logo. I wonder if they'll mind...
if your phone breaks to the point that you must return it, *MAKE SURE* its broken enough that they cant read/use the phone. Sticking it to the back of a speaker magnet for 10 minutes should do. ive heard of using a microwave fore a few seconds but it may do visible damage.
I am sick to my stomach. I tried to update my WIND version of the G2X to the T-Mobile V21E_00.kdz to get the newer baseband installed but it caused my phone to get stuck at "S/W upgrade Please wait while upgrading..." and the V21E_00.kdz
file I downloaded is corrupted (I've downloaded a few from various sources). I did do the NVFlash recovery and installed ClockworkMod Recovery before I did that but nothing I've tried, and I've tried virtually everything to resurrect my LG-P999 phone, worked. Various flashers I've used stop at extracting the V21E_00.kdz because it is corrupted. The normal LG update tool that is used for the T-Mobile G2X doesn't work for the WIND Mobile phone version because it detects that it isn't a T-Mobile phone and won't install the update and won't do an emergency repair. This phone can't be returned to WIND or LG because the upgrade I tried is "unauthorized" and they won't help.
Does anyone here know where I can get a good copy of V21E_00.kdz which will fully extract and, if you do, please post the link to it.
Is your phone the T mobile version?
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
Why don't you ask here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1114
Your phone is a p999 if I understood correctly.
I think you should use nvflash to restore a proper system, it always work. Ask in p999 forums.

Hi Core Memory, I don't know if you finally got an answer to your problem, but I got stock in similar situation, T-Mobile G2X that no longer boot after doing a LG update,
tried the various ClockworkMod Recovery, nvflash, root, nandroid, img, fixes,
but ended with that procedure as last resort, which failed with the various files I tried. same corrupted error message while extracting...
In my case, the error message was misleading,
I finally notice that the file I tried were containing a space: 'P999 V21E_00.kdz' apparently those kind of tool can be picky, I just try removing the space in the name P999_V21E_00.kdz
My guess was right, I restarted the procedure and everything went fine,
the phone is now up and running, using Gingerbread (2.3.4 I think)
hope this can help,
Jonathan

Thanks for your help.
I did get the problem solved a long time ago and have learned a lot since those early days of owning the G2X. The V21E kdz file installs Gingerbread 2.3.3.
Hey everyone.
I have the LG Thrill (P925) from AT&T. I'm used to changing roms and trying new things.
Well today I get a text from AT&T saying ICS is out, so I go and download the LG Mobile Support Tool
like the text says. The first few times don't work. I got stuck at the LG boot logo. (I didn't wipe the phone before.)
So I wait an hour to 1.5 hours. Still nothing. I try again and search the forums while I wait. Someone says to try using XP.
So I try in XP mode under Win 7. Everything is going well up until 90%. It does the whole driver disconnected sound as per normal
but then it happens. My phone starts up and shows the LG logo for 3/4ths of a second and then restarts (Black screen for 2 seconds) and
then repeats the whole process over again. What can I do?
(EDIT: Almost forgot: I was on CM7 when I tried to go to Official ICS)
All from the official LG tool...
SOLVED
After trying a few things I held the Volume up button and the power button to get it recognized by the computer. Then
I found a different copy of the LG Mobile support tool than what was on their site. I used the recovery phone option and it worked!
Hopefully this will help someone. I'll post where I got the tool soon.
Could you please give a link or tell me where you got the other lg mobile support tool. Because everything was going good for me and my phone restarted after it was done updating. But when it restarted it got hung up at the att animation and it just stays there... The way I got the official lg mobile support tool to recognize my phone was to put it into download mode also.
I got the KDZ_Flashing_Software.zip from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191698
Install the msxml from the zip then you can use the B2CAppSetup program.
Hope it helps.

Did these suggestions work for you? I'm in the same spot (frozen at&t logo). I've tried recovery phone several times to no avail. Trying one last time hoping for a miracle.
I was running a acidhazardrom gingerbread rom before attempting to update to latest official ICS. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

I found out what I did wrong. I didn't uninstall the version of the LG Support Tool before using the one specified in your first post. I removed the original LG support tool and used the one you found and it worked.
Thanks for your help.

Glad to help.
I know it's something I did, probably the custom image I had running, but the LG Support Tool totally borked my phone. My Thrill would only stay on for a split second, and would continuously boot cycle when plugged into USB. The boot cycle was so fast that half the time it wouldn't even get to the LG logo!
Fixed it with fastboot (omap4boot) and SmartFlash Tool. What a nightmare. Only good thing is I was able to flash from BIN file directly to ICS.

Thanks for your help too. Obviously these issues stem from the fact that we used custom roms on the Thrill. It doesn't help that the LG Tools are complete software crap.

noope still stuck at the lg screen
Hi guys,
few days ago I bought a used T-Mobile LG G4, It was running the O sofware so I upgrade to N and then to P(rooted thru TWRP). Phone was working great for 3 days(including camera and calls), when all of a sudden it started to give me errors regarding the camera, even when I was not even trying to use the camera. "Unfortunately the camera has stopped working" . I tried to do a factory reset first, which did not solve the issue, the camera error already showed up when the phone came back on in the LG setup.
It also does not allow me to make phone calls, it hangs when I try to press the green call button, and after 5 minutes the phone I was trying to call started to ring, but my LG G4 was still frozen. I also noticed the the boot up time is very slow all of a sudden, stuck on the LG G4 screen for a long time.
Also took the phone apart and re-seated the mainboard connector and camera connector. And tried a different battery and removing the SD-card.
I have tried to do a full wipe (including data, dalvik, cache, and internal) and then reflashed the "LG-G4-H811-20p-stock-rooted" software. Still the same issues. The phone is pretty much useless.
Any help would be gladly appreciated, as I really cant afford another phone at the moment.

thanks for your reply, I never used LGUP, only rooted/unlock bootloader thru terminal. Then, copied roms onto SD-card and flash with TWRP.
I dont know what LGUP is or what the difference is between that and doing it thru TWRP. This is my first LG, before this only had Samsung's

Hi Guys. I'm from Indonesia and I have LG G4 T Mobile H811.
I need your help to solve the problem.
It was all happened when I wanted to upgrade the firmware from Lollipop 10o to Marshmallow 20i.
First up I used LG Bridge, but it said that my phone has the latest software upgrade, so I was curious to see if I can upgrade it manually via LG UP.
I downloaded the KDZ File from cowstorage and selected the 20i firmware and flash it through the LG UP. The thing is, it says success on the PC but then my phone wont boot up. Goes into 9008 Qload mode and then I found a tutorial on Youtube how to fixed it and it can boot up again. One thing I noticed when flashing the 9008 thing is my phone changed from H811 to VS991 or something. It does boot but the phone is laggy and camera is not working. PC still detects as H81120i but the phone isn't working properly. IMEI gone and I don't know how to fix this. Does anyone have a solution to this?

flash a vs991 KDZ if it doesnt affect since you in a h811 KDZ that has antirollback..
you have franken phone means phone made up of other parts.. what matters it what it says in the motherboard.. if you want to be 100 % sure take out motherboard and see model number. software can be manipulated but not motherboard model numbre printed there.
