Hey Guys proud to inform you all that Lg OG E975 has arrived in India for $571 and gets Jelly bean 4.1.2 Out of the Box. Remaining specs are the same as the other models. Though we are expecting OG pro for the international market, this will give a tough time to Samsung GS3 which is around $600 here!

Really nice news!
I have bought an E975 in Singapore. Firmware version is V10c (Singapore Tele), 4.1.2
This is absolutely the best android device I have ever used(HD2, GS2, Evo3D, Note2).
But the only thing troubles me is that I still cannot get it rooted after trying out many method and .:silly:
Try the new Sprint JB method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38559959
Then use see if you can install supersu and busybox.

Thanks Elisha, but this "G_security" root method is blocked by LG in my phone's firmware(v10c Singapore Tele).

Sorry Elisha, I didn't notice that is a new method of G_security rooting.
I have entered shell with root permission.
Going to put su and busybox to the right place.
If you go back to the Sprint section, an updated root kit is available now so it's as easy as it was before.

bin4rys works on Sprint VS, Koren method failed on Sprint VS...
caution with the Koren version, I bricked my process (so to speak) with the Sprint Device. However, the bin4rys version worked fine the second try from a hard reset.

I actually had no problems using the Korean version on my Sprint LG OG, I even re-wrote the batch file in English, and posted it in the Korean Guide thread. I would say that bin4rys method is actually the original method, and should actually get the credit here, and technically speaking the Korean version (which is actually in Vietnamese), is just a slimmed down version of Bin4ry's exploit, but I can say it does work.

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.

Hi sir please tell me how did you flash lg optomus g f180l using a10 e975? I new to android and I want a full english version of Lg optimus G, not the korean.
Hope you could help me.
Thanks in advance.
@antoniejanssen show yourself and advertise step by step flashing ..
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.

if he says he has no any issues after then all is ok no?
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.

so i wanted to buy LG optimus G and went through all listings on ebay and everyone has different version. I dont know why LG has so many damn versions. I wanted to get this specific version off ebay. which is called "NEW UNLOCKED LG OPTIMUS G 32GB BLACK WHITE PREMIUM TDMB & QUADBEAT IPS E973 F180" Its from korea. 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.

Rogers OTA is out this morning, for me at least.
Applied it and kept root no issues. A publicly known root method also works.
Does it break root?
I never updated from Rogers E97110D, but rooted/unlocked via FreeGee. Does anyone know if applying this update to the Rogers E97110D will break root?
Also, since this link is from LG directly, is it stock without bloatware, or does it have all the Rogers craptaculous apps?
