Phone won't update to 2.3.4...not even manually

Okay, I'll keep it short and simple.
1. Got the phone and activated it. Running froyo
2. Rooted and installed CWM with the .bat one click file (I think it's the program MT wrote. It wasn't revotoolkit which I know is thecubed).
3. Realized I want to use gingervolt, so I need to update. I use the .bat file to un-root and go back to stock.
4. Try to manually push the OTA download through settings>about phone. Updates the phone to VS910ZV6 which is froyo 2.2.2
5. Try to update again (need gingerbread, which is VS910ZV7) and it keeps telling me "No new Software Update Available"
What gives? I'm thinking it may have something to do with the root? I also tried doing the manual update, you know the one floating around the internet using a .tot and LGNSP or whatever the acronym is, but Megaupload and Multiupload don't have the files anymore. Right now I'm downloading TheCubed's stock shipping rom and see if I can install it and get the update to go through.
Is there any fix that someone might know of? I ask because I've read several topics where people say they went down to stock shipping rom but they still couldn't update to gingerbread...then the topics just stop. Obviously they found their answer, so I'm hoping someone will share. I NEED TEH GINGERBREAD.
Thanks for all the help!

I had the same problem,
I was able to directly push GB using this method

use the VS910ZV7.tot, that's the latest stock.

I found that post and I would LOVE to do it, but all the files are gone. Click a link, all of them say "file is no longer available".

I have the same problem all the .tot files on file serve are no longer there please please give a different link or if you already have the file can you email it to me at [email protected] thank you in advance.

Ok here's what I've done so far---
Followed the instructions to set it back to the stock rom-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1129117
Now My build version is VS910ZV4 and my software version is VS910ZV6
O_O
Can it change the build version without changing the software?????
Tried to update, no avail. Nothing happens, I just get the "no software available" crap. Shouldn't it atleast try to update the build version? and is there a reason why it changed my build version to V4 but not my software?

Read the last few pages of the thread. I posted a link for the V7 Gingerbread .tot file that is linked to my dropbox account. I also posted a link somewhere around here for the LGPNST. I'll try to find the links.

5. Extract the "LGNPST Store & Lab"
I have everything but number 4. What do I do about the DLL, is this something I need?

Yeah that DLL is a must have. I have it at home and would be able to upload it but not for a couple hours cuz I'm at work. You can try Google but I can't promise that you'll find it.

ok so i got started with internet explorer quick question how big is the .tot file??? and then is the dll specific or is it universal with v7?

Three things:
1. I was able to open up that .dll with 7zip. if you right click and try to open with 7zip it wont work. Open 7zip and navigate to the zip, then extract it.
2. You'll have to download the .tot (and possibly the .dll) under IE. The .tot file is 637 megs.
3. The .DLL seems to be universal. Once you open it with 7zip it's the exact same size of the link he gave. I'm 53% into the upgrade so I'll let you know if everything went ok.
EDIT: added a third

Everything worked. Installing Gingervolt 1.3!!!!

Where how I convert .kdz to .bin file?

I know russian very well.So i shortly translate all procedure done here.
They patched original 20A bin file , changing system recovery.img with clocworkmod recovery.img touch version.

Unless it's a ROM or kernel you've created yourself, this doesn't belong in Development.

Doesn't SmartFlash auto erases all user data (factory reset at first boot)?

Okey... Maybe, tomorrow I will be a version (.bin) V20N

Ok. Let me try to understand this. They replace "system recovery.img" which is reside in the original rom bin file with "cwm recovery.img" (where to get this file?) and then flash it using smartflash tool. So after reset by smartflah, cwm is already in the phone installed. Then all is easy, proceed to install superuser.zip, etc..etc.zip.
How is it possible to obtain root by inserting cwm in the rom while cwm itself require root to run? Also, what's the "system recovery.img" that got replaced. Is it important?
Please investigate more. Need more info on how "patching" is done too. I don't understand russian.

I guess you need to investigate more how android works. Flashing recovery image with the whole system in a bin file makes cmw part of the "original" firmware so,like recovery that only can erase all this one can read/write in the system files. Sounds normal. I read on Samsung forums that they get root for latest versions by flashing a patched odin file and then a su zip. I will try it

Then we can say that this is universal method as long as cwm can be patch into the rom. Finding exploit is not necessary anymore. So, what's the function of the file replaced in the rom. Is it the original lg recovery method which is not available anymore if this we use this method?
Thanks for the explanation, I wonder why it hasn't be use before, maybe because lack of rom file in bin format?
Edit: downloading rom in your link, pls post how to proceed if you get hold of it.

to get the files out of a kdz: grab them while someone is using the KDZ program to update their phone. The files are extracted and put into "C:\ProgramData\LGMOBILEAX\Phone" but as soon as the program detects no phone the entire directory is blown away. Too fast to grab the files. So either you update for real (in which case you have the time to grab the files) or you create a symbolic link between the C:\ProgramData\LGMOBILEAX\Phone folder and another folder you create say name it C:\test. What happens is that files get extracted and then \phone folder deleted when no phone is detected but the files remain on the \test folder. So you get your files which are a "model.dll" file (in p970 case i guess something like lgp970.dll) and a .wdb file which is the firmware. How to proceed though to tinker further with the .wdb file so as to get bin file and baseband still elludes me

I bet our rom cooker knew how to unpack and repack. So, anyone?

update: doing some research and it seems to extract the bin files you need lgutils and the .dll file you get from the kdz extraction but I am not at home to look into it any further.

[Q] (Q) How to collect smart flash flashable file from kdz?

Hi guys, i searched lot, but did not find any proper solution for getting flashable files of smart flash from kdz..
Plz help guys..

Obviously you haven`t searched enough .
I think that you are looking for LGExtract 0.2.1
Tool is in it`s beginning, but from reading I think that it can extract smartflash files from kdz and it is tested on p990 (I haven`t tested it).

k, i tried that, now i got 13 files.
some are img, some fls etc.
but we need only 2 files for flashing with smartflash tool. bin and fls.
how to get them ?

As I said, I haven`t tried to do this, hence I can`t help you. You will must to read and ask for support in original thread, where the author of the tool is present.
If you are trying to flash kdz and since LG have changed their politics, try to read this thread too... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1473781

Hi all,
first, thank you Memhis, the tool is excellent. It works under Linux too in Wine environment.
But I have some observations and some questions
- first decrypt/decompile KDZ file only extract a CAB file - this CAB file can be extracted by cabextract utility
- after CAB file extraction, there is WDB file and machine specific DLL - this DLL file must be used for extraction of WDB, I try the newer one without success
- after performing extraction of WDB using DLL there are number of files which can be useful
AENEAS_FW.fls, psi.fls, R375_SIC.fls, slb.fls - these files are the baseband and can be flashed using smart flash tool - it must be flashed all, not only some
#_Split_Data.img - after joining this file to one, it contains Linux filesystem (now EXT3) with all data of /system partition and you can get lge-ril.so from this
The remaining files I don't identify and only speculate what is it
ext3_flashboot.img - this filesystem is used to boot for flashing???
fastboot.bin - ???
recovery.img - recovery partition - this images is used to replace ClockWorkMod I think
Once again, many thanks. I was searching for this similar tool about six moths ago.

can you tel me,how do you extract the split_data.img??
at this point i have no idea what i must do and find nothing about it.

There is nothing to "extract" from split_data.img. It is a true EXT3 Linux filesystem. You have to use a Linux box or something to allow mount an Linux image to Windows environment. I can only point you to http://www.ext2fsd.com/ site which is free good ext2/3/4 filesystem driver, but I don't know, if it is usable - it can mount a Linux partition under Windows but don't know it can mount a image file as disk. Hope so.

Thanks for the information, but I can't extract Split_Data.img (it's the joined file of 4 .img files).
How can I extract this .img in Linux (virtual machine)?

You have to mount it, like it is a whole filesystem. Google it to find out how to mount img file. Once done, you'll open it like a hard drive.

Edit: Forget my question, it works now!
My last question: Is the file "ext3_flashboot" the same as the boot.img files in CWM roms?

OK, I managed to extract the kdz file and I made a rebuild of V20c without flashing the kdz, just with extracting!
I'll upload it in a few minutes!

Hi Keltek, thanks for the manual. but i am getting some error, any ideas? I'm using Win 7 32-Bit. This is the error:
C:\>LGExtract -kdz V20F_00.kdz
Extracting:

Error code: 00000005

Please report this error with this file.
thanks
NEVER MIND: cmd.exe should "Run as Administrator", it works now.

The last question I have is how to join the 4 extracted baseband files to one file?
Does that work with copy /b command?

What i got from flashing basebands is that youre supposed to flash them one by one from largest to smallest file. so basically what you should be doing to "compress" the procedure is you unpack those 4 files, put the largest one in place and copy the others onto it, replacing duplicates. Then repackage what you merged, and try that, cant think of anything more logical than that.

That sounds logical, but I don't know how to extract the files.
But it's not very important, because it isn't a problem to flash 4 files instead of one.

You should specify from which ROM file, coz there are many version with same identification but different content - I don't understand why LG do this - the V20q for Czech Republic is not the same as V20q for Italy...
I take a look at V20h and it contain 1035.21_20110725 BaseBand.

How to install firmware in developer devices?

My friends,
Some colleagues like to flash and restore roms too in developer devices (not for sale) like all did with KDZ updater everyday.
The question is: If KDZ isn't working with developer devices, then how we can flash it? How can we unlock it?
I discovered some things:
1 - KDZ is a encrypted file.
2 - Developers device has unlocked bootloader.
3 - I've tried many ways to flash kdz in this device, but it never concludes the process, never worked. It stops on "wparam=2010 iparam=18". There are diferents parameter varyating for each developer phone.
4 - We have to discover a new way to flash in this device, or we can decrypt the KDZ file.
*BINGO!* I DIT IT!
How to FLASH and Unbrick LG P880 Developer Edition
This procedure applies only for the initial LG P880 Developer Edition.
But how to know if your device is this version?
First, remove the back cover of your device and search for the words "not for sale". Then (if your phone still works), go to settings> about phone> Software Version. If the version of your device starts with the code V09a, V09b, V09c, etc. - This is a sign that your phone is the developer version!
This means you can not flashing KDZ files through the official LG updater. Even if you download the file separately, the only thing you will achieve is to brick your phone.
But our problems are over! I came to save you!:thumbup:
Procedure:
First, download the KDZ file of your choice here: http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=15
Second, download this firmware pack with DZ. File and proper .DLL File: http://bayfiles.com/file/bRZx/AZaxbu...GP880.v10A.rar
Third, download this drivers:
http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata...er-4.10(2).zip
http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/data/L...in7_LGEAll.zip
Fourth, download LG Flash Tool:
http://www.mediafire.com/?pzqr0gsw8u9erxl
We will definitely erase any record of your device. Unlike the KDZ method, this one makes a "ULTRA HARD RESET". Our device is not registered as selling model, yet the hardware is identical to the model of the consumer. We'll do the flash rom, and also unlock the device so that it is compatible with the KDZ flasher once and for all!
Once you’ve downloaded all the archives, let’s begin. Go to victory.
1. Extract “LGFlashTool 1.2” and instal "Setup_LGFlashTool_1.2.45.921.exe"
2.Replace the file LGFlashTool.exe into C:\LG\LGFlashTool ( You will crack the software with this )
3. Extract and Install “OMAPFlashInstaller-4.10(2).zip”
4.Exract “LGUnitedModemDriver_WHQL_ML_Ver_4.9.7_All_Wi n7_LG EAll.zip” and Install“LGUnitedMobileDriver_S497CA20_WHQL_ML_Ver_ 1. 0 .exe ” and“LGUnitedMobileDriver_S497MA20_WHQL_ML_Ver_1. 0 .exe ”
5. Turn Off phone, Remove your phone’s SIM and SD cards.
6.Press and hold voll up button in LG P880.
7. When you holding “voll up button” connect the USB cable.
8.When computer detects the new hardware (Omap4430) release “voll up button”.
9. Install the Driver.
10.After Driver installation, go to device manager and change the port “LGE CDMA USB SERIAL PORT” to “com41″.
11. Run LGFlashTool.
12.In DLL select the proper DLL file you’ve downloaded.
13. In S/W select only the proper DZ. File you’ve downloaded.
14.Choice (Check) “USB” and click OK.
15. Click on Port COM settings(COM plug icon) and select "1" ( Unmark the numbers above )
16. Click start(The Port 1 window should appear READY).
17.Disconnects USB cable and wait 5 seconds.
18. Press and hold voll up button in Lg P880 and connect USB cable.
19.The update process will begin automatically after that release the “vol up”.
20. When the progress bar reaches 100%, the phone will power on and boots automatically!
21. Done! You did it!
22. Now go and flash a KDZ file as your choice using KDZ updater! Your phone was’nt more a developer phone! We transformed it on a consumer phone edition! Wow!
Id like to thanks all if you!

Hehe, thanks, but I've made it already!

Looks like 2 flashes...
Great Xavier, even if I don't need thanks.
Maybe I can use that for some other things
Have a nice weekend :good:

Think you made a lot of happy campers out there - impressive!

I think this tutorial should be "fixed" on the top of the " Optimus 4X HD Q&A ".
Someone should pay a beer to Xavier, he maid a great job !
Just one thing Xavier, the " firmware pack with DZ. File and proper .DLL File: http://bayfiles.com/file/bRZx/AZaxbu...GP880.v10A.rar" takes me to a dead end (need to register...), the drivers links are dead
Can you fix that ?
Tnx

Hey guys i discovered some things.
We can create a new DZ. file. And a dll can be extracted. Soon I will share how to create a new way using a kdz. file!

But Xavier, thats easy... every time you select "start upgrade" in R&D Test Tool (after you choose a .kdz file) it generates a .cab file.
You just need to extract what's inside of the V10x.cab ... it will be a .dz file and the .dll, in this case "X3_2008_v0.0.6.9"
I didn't explore a lot that "OMAPFlashInstaller" yet, not a lot of time for that now
Just a curiosity, the .dz file extracted from a V10f_00.kdz is good as well, or needs to be exactly the V10a_00.kdz?
Thanks

I think it's all

Thank you, downloading now.
Downloaded everything except for these, the first one works very very bad, the second stops after 50-90MB (i Know, they are the same file).

I presume you're talking about this link: http://bayfiles.com/file/bRZx/AZaxbu/.kdz_et_.dz_.dll_LGP880.v10A.rar
If you use JDownloader you can do it in 5-10 minutes (depending on your Internet speed...)
I start to download it 2 minutes ago, 3MB/s in 3 minutes it will be finished.
I'll try to upload to 4shared
This file contains:
- LGP880AT-00-V10a-EUR-XXX-MAY-23-2012+0.dz
- V10A_00.kdz
- X3_2008_v0.0.6.9.dll
Like I mentioned before, to have a .dz file it's just needed the .kdz file.
Once that you'll need it to flash, it's enough when you download the .kdz that you want.

Yes my friends, i will fix it very soon! Its 13:40 here in Brazil, I'm working now. When I go home I will do that!

@RuedasLocas-the problem is not the speed, I download it with ~1MB/s. The problem is that I tried downloading ~10 times, and it stops after 50, 90, 27, etc (up to 500) MB. It stops like it finished downloading and then the archive is corrupt. Maybe a different hosting service would be better.
Anyway, thank you guys for your help!

Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
TechGR, you don't need that!
Grab the UpTestEX_mod2_marwin.exe (R&D Test tool) select the KDZ file that you want to install in your phone, hit the "Start Upgrade" and the programe will creat in the same folder where you have the "UpTestEX_mod2_marwin.exe" a .cab file. Even if you don't connect the phone, nothing...
As soon as you see that cab file in the folder, use winRAR to extract the DZ file and the DLL.
The "kdz-update" that I provide here:
http://www.4shared.com/rar/Re4VCOAS/kdz-udpate.html
Arghhhh again

Ok, I tried that, but it did not make any CAB file. However, I decrypted the KDZ using the same tool, and I ended up with a .dz file and a .dll file. I suppose these are the files I need
Well, I followed the tutorial from the first post exactly, except I used the two files I extracted. When I get to step 16 and I click Start, the port 1 does not appear ready (nothing happens).
I'm sure we're gonna sort it out soon, I gotta run now.

Make sure you have followed guide properly, disable modem if you have it (i kept drivers from root method which doesnt have modem) and make sure Windows enabler is on. Log runs for a long time when I flash, about 15 minutes before it finally reboots

Extract the .dz and .dll files from the wind .kdz and flash it with LGFLASH Tool.

put the Firmware kdz in the "kdz-update" folder.
Run "UpTestEX_mod2_marwin" like if you were flashing the phone.
when you hit "upgrade" in the program, it will creat a temp .cab file like "V10x.cab" in the same folder "kdz-update", you need to be fast and select and copy (or drag&drop) that file to other location, desktop for example...
after you get the .cab, you just need to extract the .dz and .dll files with winrar, winzip, or other.
