After some adventures with rooting my Arc S by the help of downloaded firmwares i decided to restore my phone to the original nordic 4.0.4-firmware. Since i didn't feel like loosing my root-access i used Flashtools firmwarecooking-functions with the saved files in the "blob_fs"-folder located in the Update Service-folder.
From what i can tell it seemed to have worked, the phone works flawlessly. So out of curiosity i decided to check the servicemenu and see what it could tell me about my phone. To my surprise my SI is not mentioned anywhere under "Software info". Not that it bothers me since the phone works, but i am just to curious to let it slide. To my shame i never checked it before i flashed the phone with the downloaded firmware labeled "Generic Trade NCB".
My SI from the sticker under the battery reads: 1254-1113
Servicemenu -> Software info reports:
Phone Software Version: 1253-8238_4.1.B.0.431 / GENERIC - user

LG-P705G - Root
Hello:
I am new to this forum and this is my first post.
I just recently purchased LG -P705g from Fido without contract. Now I'd like to root my phone so I can unlock my phone.I found some post on the internet and I tried but I still can not able to root. While doing this it says that your phone having current firmware.
My another question is how do I save my apps to SD card? I tried apps "apps2Sd card" but no luck so I tried method suggested in some forum by downloading android sdk but still no luck
Here is my phone specs:
Model: LG-P705G
Android Version: 4.0.3
Base band: MSM7227A-1-AA
Kernel Version: 3.08-perf
Build Number: IML74K
Software version: V10c-May-1002012

Hi,
I currently use tab myAudio 908V tab (very cheap ) and i wanted to upgrade my firmware however I got stuck. I'm not sure from where should I download software and how to do it basically.
Current firmware is:
Model number: MID
Androdid version: 4.0.3
Basebrand version 1.1
Kernel version: [email protected] #3
Built in number: 03F2-H1-H2-H01-BC40.20120619
I've tried to follow steps on the official site but my windows win7 32-bit didn't wanted to recognize the device due the lack of drivers.
p.s. when i try the option "system update" in the tab settings it says that my tab is missing update.zip file
Hopefully someone will help
Thx

I've been trying to get a friends phone to work properly.
Its a chinese S4 knockoff that does not have a proper recovery system. When I try and access recovery all I get is the Spreadtrum factory test.
I seem to have most of the drivers installed now as I can access the phone in android commander.
As it is a second hand device I dont know if anyone has messed with the software before, But It does have the "No Service" issue with a simcard
In about device I have the following info:
Model Number: GT-I9500
Android version: 4.2.2
Baseband Version I9500XXUAMDE
Kernel Version: 3.4.5-447903
Software version: JDQ39.I9500ZSUAMDF
Hardware Version 1.1.0
using MTK Droid :
Hardware : MT6589
Model : Galaxy S4
Build number : MocorDroid4.2.2.W12.20_P20.01
Build date UTC : 20131217-084616
Android v : 4.2.2
Baseband v: DM_BASE_12A_W13.04|sc6820_modem|01-23-2013 11:06:41
Kernel v : 2.6.35.7 ([email protected]) (gcc version 4.4.3 (GCC) ) #5 Tue Dec 17 16:53:08 CST 2013
--- Unknown ROM structure, backup NOT possible!
In device manager two drivers :"SPRD Android COM Enumerator 1" and "SPRD Android COM Enumerator 2" say they are not for this platform when they install.
I also cannot get the phone to do anything with a pre loader, When I pull the battery and connect to USB Nothing happens like Others I have seen on Youtube.
I can obviously point out that I have no idea what I am doing.
I would like to flash the device and make sure it is running the correct ROM, as well as try and fix that "no Service" issue. But I cant seem to get the device to detect and/or work properly to follow the tutorials on this site.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
If you need more Info Just ask.
Thanks in advance.
Hi guys!
XDA has always been a great resource every time I visit. Hoping to get some advice.
My LG G4 recently performed a factory reset while being in my pocket during a walk. The KnockOn feature did so many bad password attempts (no idea how since the "life is good" prompt should stop this), it formatted my phone. Not only is my phone reset, but my SD card that i thought safe, was also formatted and all of my backups are gone.
So now I look to custom ROMs and rooting the device to have some fun. Only, where do I begin?
Current Software Info:
-Android Version: 6.0
-Android security patch level: 2016-11-01
-Baseband version: MPSS.BO2.5.c3-00133-M8992FAAAANAZM-1
-Kernel Version: 3.10.84-gaffe7c4
-Build number: MRA58K
-Configuration version: J14.LGE.VS986.0
-Software version: VS98628A
-Software status: official
-Security software version: MDF v2.0 release 2
I see many threads documenting how to root 11A and 13B. But since I've received OTA since having my phone, i am on 28A. Is that correct?
I am good at following all the instructions. Can one of you please help me get started? Thanks much!

You'll have to use LGUP to downgrade to LP then root using the one of many threads dedicated to that. But VS986 can't have any custom ROMs because the bootloader is locked.

ahh....so that explains why i'm not seeing any threads with ROMs for my model. yey!
just saw the thread you linked this morning. thanks much! i will start there.
