LG Optimus G E971
I flashed mine LG Optimus F180L with the A10 version of the E975 (with the origial LG software) and everything sames to work, I only must get signal (3g and WiFi) after the flash, by settings I let search the Phone to the provider and choose for mine provider, then I had signal, I did this yesterday so I'm testing the signal for a few days.

The E975 rom has apns for most carriers built in but in most cases only 3g apns. If you need LTE you have to edit or add LTE apn.
LG Optimus G E971
By the settings "Mobile network" and then "Network mode" I have also the option "GSM / WCDMA / LTE auto".
I can't test it, because we in Holland waiting for the LTE / 4G, so if it not work, I don't mis it.

Elisha, do you know (or anybody els) how to add or edit this. Now I have only 3G and WiFi but no H and
sometimes I lost the signal for a short time.
On a Chinese site they have it over to install bband20j.img over the ROM. I used Google translator but even then it is Chinese, it is not
clear how to do this. Mist I root the device ans then use Root Explorer to copie the file or what?
Here's mine: http://db.tt/HizTOKa4
Backup the current one and move this to system/etc and set correct permissions.
Then go back to apn setting to see if you have the LTE apn. Or reboot first and try.
Btw that is for Rogers.

Hope you could help me.

He probably used the KDZ method. However I would recommend rooting, unlocking and flashing an E975 based rom via cwm first. That way it's not replacing the modem.

Yeah but we don't know if he KDZed or flashed a custom rom.
I can link you to a stock HK E975 rom with root and you can try if you want if you are already unlocked and have cwm.
It won't replace your modem so you should have network. Everything will work on an E971 and E973.
If flashing on F180, make a nandroid first.

You need to root first and then unlock your bootloader with FreeGee. I'm not sure if the F180 has an unlockable bootloader for JB though.

Sorry for the late reaction, but I was first busy for my work an then became ill.
I did the KDZ methode and then you must root it and then install the BaseBandF180L.
If you want to do this, you need the KDZ_FW_UPD_EN software, the E97510A_00.kdz file.
After that the root software and then the BasebandF180L software.

I wanted to know can i install the firmwares found on this forum for e973 on this phone? does this phone have cm 10.1. E973 and this phone are the same? firmware wise and other stuff also. Any opinions guys please share. And is the camera of this phone better than galaxy note?
Not the same. E973 is closer to the E975 and E971 than it is to the F180.

for e973 or f180?
Dont buy the F180 unless you live in korea.
Why not?
I've the LG Optimus F180L now for a month and I'm from The Netherlands. I'm very happy with this Phone.
I flashed yesterday the A10 version from the E975 with the Original LG software. Now I have the same LG Phone
without korean apss or klanguage and extra QSlide apps in the pulldown menu.
So, why shouldn't we buy one, in Europe we still can't buy it. The best Phone there is on this moment.
First of all cause of warranty/insurance.
Also if your phone got broken, that would be trouble to repair the phone in Europe cause F180, especially the L version, has some differences from E97X.
E975 is already announced and close to arrive, be patient

E973 is international version i suppose
Its the E975
Yeah E975 is the actual international version. E971 would be the next closest due to the 2600mhz LTE band and then the E973.
LG Optimus G E971
Hi,
I just bought a LG optimus G Bell E973 and upgraded to V20h. There are some problem with my phone:
1. After restarting the phone, all wifi pwd is lost. ( If no reset, the phone still automatically connect to the wifi network with remembered pwd)
2. Something the percentage of battery is incorrect. Ex: 39% left and then some minutes it is 40% left.
3. I set the 50% Brightness. Resetted the phone. Then its set to 100% again.
Has any one here face the problems like me ? How is the solution?
Is it doing this after every reboot or just the first reboot after new firmware install?

Try doing the LG factory reset. Power + Volume Down. Make sure you backup everything on your sd as it will wipe the whole phone.

Most likely. Because wifi password persistency on some roms depend on a certain line in the build prop matching the carrier it is currently connected to.

country: Bought it in israel

4G freq: im in israel so we don't have 4G but when i typed lg e975k on google one of the resaults was
the australian official LG website so if austalia has 4G so this phone is capable of 4G connectivity
in the "About Phone" it shows that it's made in korea so i think the "K" in the model represents korea but i'm not sure
Comes preinstalled with jelly bean 4.1.2
if you need anything else just ask and i'll be happy to answer
Thanks for the info.
Don't know what "k" stands for,but it's not korea.i mean,E975R is used in australia...
Theoretically,all roms for E975 should work with K.especially if you don't have 4G.just don't try E971/973 roms.they have different specs.

if the e975 roms would not be compatible with my "k" model could it lead to hard bricking my phone ?
because a hard brick is caused when you flash an incompatible rom or recovery or you can just say (bad NAND boot image)
the lg is a sturdy device,pretty solid. Those who bricked it didn't payed attention to exact steps and didn't read all the infos.i used kdz updater on it more than 20 times,not to mention all customs roms i flashed and tested. Didn't "succeed" in bricking it,yet.worst case in your situation(but not gonna happen)...the phone would be stucked on lg logo.l,but you will be able to enter download mode.again,not gonna happen.
The pone is easy to work with,i mean it takes about 30 seconds to root and 2 minutes to unlock the bootloader and flash cwm recovery.just root it and see if freegee is compatible with it.if not,upload the files needed and shelnutt2 will fix it in no time.

Even if you are hard hard hard bricked, you can save it with a JTAG. So yeah, if you're at this step, you're maybe analphabet.

Hi all,
regarding this topic is there anyone who was success with unlock bootloader / root / flash custom recovery / flash custom ROM for E975W?
I would like to read some personal experience with this. I would be very thankful.
I just looked it up and there are a few minor differences, but I'm unsure about whether or not it'll make a difference. I think the biggest issue is that the screen resolution differs, like someone else mentioned earlier. On top of that, the E975W does not support LTE networks, which the intl version does. I think that if you edit a few files in a E975 rom to make it fit the screen resolution for the E975W it'll work out. Because other than these things, everything is indeed the same.

And what about unlock bootloader and root? I just looked around optimus g topics and it's not clear for me.
Because as you described may be possible to use e975 rom for the e975w with some minor changes so i should give a shot for it.
But first I need a proper method for unlock bootloader&root&flash custom recovery. Then backup stock rom (if I screw up something...), then showtime.
Thanks a lot!

Shouldn't unlocking the BL and rooting the phone the exact same way it does with the e975? I don't there are any differences concerning software, so either you could try the method for e975 and you could always try rooting it using Towelroot
e975w can be rooted now. donot flash e975 to e975w or you will have hard brick.
As i asked above, how to restore original rom F180K if im on E975 now? I heard that when you flash kdz (f180k kdz) on E975 rom (actual) you can get some problems like with battery or etc...
Does anyone tried it before or know how to flash F180 rom without any trouble?

I have a F180S and flashed kdz for it as I was on E975 Stock, nothing bad happened
So i will not get any bug / problem with battery ooor another issuuuue?
