I noticed there is an update which is ls970zv9 but i can not get it from the phone,i downloaded the lgmovil support tool and drivers ,i did put my phone and download mode at first the lgmovil tool it say i have a new software update(im in ls970zv8 software) but when i start do downloading it say my phone it doesnt support the software,,,,,anybody knows about the new software update ls970zv9?
My advice may suck, but, Sprint will push the OTA in a week or two, this one is mainly bug fixes and such, no JB just yet.

Our devs are great love them all, but just letting everyone know if you're still stock like me i got the OTA this morning. I'm probably going to try rooting and unlocking later so we'll find out if it's still possible after updating.

If u plan to root, i would not do the ota. It's currently unrootable at the moment. If u did run the ota, you'd have to lgnpst back if u want root.

CA stands for California and I did a little research and this is what I found.
"According to an article in the business section of my newspaper, written by Dana Hull of mercurynews.com, the California Energy Commission on Thursday will consider adopting the nation's first energy-efficiency standards for battery chargers. The Commission staff says that these new regulations could (eventually) save the state as much as 2,200 GWh per year. The new regulations will cover every form of battery charger, from cell-phone chargers to industrial-sized chargers and would go into effect by January 2013. "
EDIT: Also with the 2nd LCD thing, I have no idea what that means but I googled it and found this. Seems to be people talking about enabling the 2nd LCD, like I said I have no idea. BUT I did read a few updates for other phones that enabled the 2nd LCD is getting them ready for Jelly Bean.

I checked the sources a few days ago, and zv9 does differ from zv8. I am not a kernel dev, so I'm not sure really how or how much, but I'm sure we can get someone who knows more to take a look at it.
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
I can confirm that stock v9 is unrootable meaning if you think you might want to unlock your bootloader and use custom roms its best to do so from v8. If you already upgraded to stock v9 and want to root and unlock you can use lgnpst to downgrade. This is what i did, the instructions for lgnpst are in the dev section. Theres a stock rooted v9 rom up right now so thats the way to go, plus you can get rid of bloatware.

To get the OTA System Settings -> System Updates ->Update LG Software.
I rooted ZV8 but left the bootloader locked, enabled supersu survival mode then ran the OTA. I was able to keep root.
I pulled the OTA Zip it has a boot.img and radio.img in it. The kernel and radio version appear to be the same though.
Post the boot.img from V9 please
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
Probably just wait for a flashable zip since i have a unlocked bootloader and rooted. It is better then flashing the zv9 stock rom and loosing all my apps messages and settings plus pictures... Don't have the time to really do a one and done backup but for now I can wait for a flashable zip

Did anyone see on our AT&T variant forum that they found a way to flash all Nexus 4 partitions, (bootloader, recovery, kernel, and system) to convert your LGOG to a Nexus 4!!! I am so waiting for them to try this out on our device so I can do it and flash N4 ROMs from then on

I did it before rohan on the sprint variant and it is mostly working, but I don't plan to release it. Flashing all n4 partitions is not a great idea and could brick your phone. Cm is coming. Just waiting on the Korean jb source.

Unless everything works like update PRL/Profile, LTE, reading all 32gb internal sdcard, etc., I wouldn't recommend going the N4 route.
Better to just wait for AOSP based roms once JB source is released.

Sorry to disappoint you guys, but I would feel guilty releasing this when I know that the repartition could kill your phone. I know the phone has been out and you guys have had to wait awhile, but you've waited this long, why screw your phone up when legitimate cm is close. With korean 3.4 kernel source, we will be able to have cm done fairly quickly. It's not up yet but will be soon. Also, I have some exciting stuff planned for after cm (sense, miui, and whatever else you guys want).

Hey, xbox, with the source would it be easy to port the Korean version of 4.1 too? I am not knocking CM. I just don't see what you gain.
I only ask because it might be a few months before we get updated from Sprint.

There's an Unofficial CM build in progress. I've been using it for a few days. The only problems are lack of camera, bluetooth issues (I can't confirm that) and the home button LEDs have been disabled. I'm sure once we have a solid CM base we'll start seeing more ROMs and ports.

And once we get a fully-working CM, it's not (IIRC) that much of a jump to a fully-working AOKP or MIUI or whatever. I have much faith in our awesome devs.

Well it took Samsung about 8 months to release Jelly Bean on the S3. So really they are all pretty bad with updates and most of that could be blamed on the carrier.
If you want immediate updates though, you have to go with Nexus.

thats not entirely true for the s3. it wasnt 8 mnths, it was like 5 - 6 mths. plus they released a couple of non-JB updates during that time before the official JB was released.
to suggest that we all drop the OGP for the nexus just for updates is a bit ignorant.

I respectfully disagree. I mean this phone came to usa in mid may to june. And in less than 2 months the value update!
I mean seriously is that not good enough?
Yes the value pack was available for korean version earlier than that but again the phone was available there first.
4.2 & 4.3 for what? its the same stuff. I was hoping from google to released a full new revamp android version..but i feel like 4.2 & 4.3 are just maintenance update to patch stuff. Yes a few things here & there...but that's it.
Now the developer support for this phone has been a little slow. But unfortunately this phone is at&t exclusive witch is stupid move from LG.
But i will buy this phone again no doubt.
I wish the camera software was better. The camera has a lot of potential but the software is not there yet.

I'd like to say the same, but I will have to wait. I think this phone will handle 4.4 just as well. I also would like to see if it makes it back to my OG Evo. I've heard KitKat can run on older devices due to low memory usage.
Shel's already working on 4.4, from what I've seen. There was a zip posted in the irc, but the flash failed We're definitely getting it though, and I'm absolutely excited to see how it will run. I hope the battery doesn't drain too quickly.

been using CM11 m2 and m3 snapshots with no problems
Interesting that I still don't see a listing on Cyanogenmod for the ls970 when AT&T has theirs listed. I can't believe they sold that many more lgog's than sprint.
I have two phones that I updated to Cyanogenmod CM11 snapshots that are working great so far.
Don't see any real problems with any of the apps or features, but I am not a beta tester. I am using these as my everyday phones and they work as expected.
Held my breath when I rooted/unlocked and installed the new rom's since they were mine and my wife's phones. I did this because I was so pissed LG dropped support for the phone upgrades. Such a good phone to be left at 4.1.2.
Anyone that has an LGOG's on sprint should not have a problem as long as they follow the instructions on rooting and unlocking. Can't say anything about insurance and warranty, though. I found it easier to buy a used phone when one of my other phones lost its screen. Insurance is a racket and is cheaper to just get a used on ebay.
Gave a new lease on life to my phone.
We've all heard rumors that LG is testing the KitKat update on the G and G2, and rumors that AT&T might be getting it on their models... but those are just rumors unfortunately. Nothing's happened so far.
