I unrooted the phone but i think the bootloader is still locked, could this be the reason?
The error just says problem with installation:S
Edit: but I unrooted through SuperSu...that shouldn't matter though?
You have to relock the bootloader.

The freegee app should allow you to restore the backup.

That's the easiest way or you have to dd or fastboot those partitions back to lock the bootloader.

I had to KDZ flash in order to get the update. My bootloader was locked and I unrooted. You can get the appropriate files on the forum to flash back to stock or the new JB update

still cant update
My first advise would be to get a dictionnary. My second advise would be to LGNPST back to stock rom then do the OTA.

My Bell Optimus G is showing a new update, V20h-MAR08-2013 (428.33MB)
Would someone who doesn't mind losing root give it a shot and tell me if root persists with any of the normal OTA survival tools?
I don't want to update until I know I can have root afterwards.
EDIT:: or a better question is, is the g_security exploit still working on the new rom?
Current root method works fine.
LG Optimus G E971/3/5
Elisha, it works as... Root persists or as you can root for the first time on V20h?
I did the KDZ for Bell yesterday and it worked with the latest Sprint based root method. And so does the newest Rogers update as well. Someone mentioned that it persisted on the OTA too. But I would download Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper to backup root first before doing the OTA.
LG Optimus G E971/3/5
Just finished the update and su is still there and setuid. I didn't have to do anything special.
There was an update for 180K 2 days ago (F180K20i)
Yesterday ive bricked my device (my fault) and had to flash the latest rom.
The root exploit still works

Are you on a F180 rom at the moment?
If so can you extract the Wake Up alarm tone for me? I miss that one. Only the Korean roms have it I believe.

I downloaded the rom f180k20i but I couldn't flash it because of extract error of the rom. I dowloaded it twice from:
http://lg-phone-firmware.com/tool.php?idclick=3510
...but same results.
Maybe this rom can help me and michaelgeorge.
for Tim4: do you have a good one?
I have tried to flash the newest F180L20N .kdz a couple times, get an extract error (extracting kdz error) as well. Tried re-downloading the file directly from the LG server, same error.

Yes, I flashed in order, F180K10H, F180K20G -> no network , again F180K10H network until first reboot...
It is amazing how I can't do anything else: Factory reset and wipe didn't help me. Is the phone sim-locked? Hw error? I don't have a clue...

I had to manually choose the Network Operator. The list took little while to populate but once selected I have had no issues.

i knew this app from google play "OTA KEEPER", it can unroot and backs up root file easily. But i don't try it!
Anyone has experience on this app??????/:laugh:
Easiest way for unroot is with SuperSU from chainfire.
Just install the app,go to settings and choose unroot.your device will reboot and will be clean.

In my experience, first two steps are not necessary. I rooted it straight from Korean stock ROM, unlocked BL with FreeGee, and flashed e975 ROM via CWM.

Absolutely not, but you will remain as f180 and have to delete the asserets line everytime you flash or update a rom, mod, recovery

Hmm... I never had to do that. Like i said, I rooted and unlocked straight from F180, then flashed multiple e975 ROMs multiple times via CWM with no problems whatsoever. The device is always identified as E975. Didn't have to do anything extra. Just sharing my experience...
Hmm I'll try again confirm later, done same in early days of my device and it was f180 so i had to remove assert line every time.
Sent from my LG-E975 using Tapatalk
I guess it's just a more "proper" way to start with E975 kdz. I dunno, it looks like I took a shortcut and got lucky.

Fair enough. I never tried installing any CM versions, though... Installed a couple of stock variants, and a new AOSP KitKat build by Houstonn. Also installed Philz CWM. All went well with no errors. Like I said, your method seems to be more safe in general...

Tutorial needed for flashing stock eur rom
Hi there,
I have the Korean version of the Optimus G (F180s20n) and read about converting it to a european stock rom. I would very much do so, but can't make heads or tails from what I've read (although I have quite some experience in flashing the HTC HD2).
I was wondering if there is a step by step tutorial which describes everything in this thread?
Would very much appreciate it.
Thanks a lot!

You also have to install superSU from playstore. I think because towel root does not install superSU itself thats why u think its not working on your phone.
