Security Error - LG Optimus G (International)

I have Optimus G (F180L). It's rooted, sms problem fixed. But 2 days ago i removed some system apps through apk delete and it was working fine till i switched it off and when i turned it on, it gave me security error. I cant go to recovery mode, i am able to go to download mode but i cant flash through kdz updater as it gives the error "file extract error" Any help in this regard would be much appreciated

You can try to update online

What about unlocking the bootloader?

Could u please guide me through the process of converting f180l to e975 english version, i have downloaded the hong kong kdz file, downloaded the flashtool as well, the f180l baseband files, but i dont know how to use the flashtool and flash the baseband files after flashing the e975 firmware. A stepwise guide would be really appreciated,

plz follow this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010624

Yep, follow that thread. You need to secure a copy of the F180L modem driver (zip), otherwise your telephony will be buggy or not even working.
The goal is to be able to boot to TWRP or CMW and/or access fastboot.
Do the steps on that thread first then post the issues here if you are not successful or if you encounter error along the way.

I have installed the stock rom, my phone is up now, alive , but i want to convert it to E975 english version, i need the guiding steps to convert my f180l to e975. I have already downloaded the Hong kong rom, baseband files, flashtool etc, just need the exact steps to go through.

KDZ or flashtool (recommend the latter) the same way you did with korean stock rom. After the flashsing done, wait for the phone to boot up, then turn off and do a hard reset. Then root, install recovery and use that to flash a baseband for your model. Gl

Change Sim and see if that connects to network.

When i flashed india binary, it is showing IMEI number. But now it is not showing. *#06# is also not working.
what you have done between indian ROM and this?
also how did you flash that indian ROM
do a hard reset and try to flash again or possibly get the oldest rom available for your phone f180
also if you used freegee when your phone was working where is that backup?

i am hesitating to tell this.. but it will be too worst if i didn't.
1. I flashed INDIA Rom with LG development Tool. (not updated with KDZ)
2. I flashed .qcn of F180L with QPST tool with my colleague's suggestion .
I think this second step destroyed everything. i didn't use Freegee ;(
i have done HARD RESET but nothing changed. is it gone ??

Hi... i flashed F180L ROM again with ERASING CHIPSET & i have written IMEI number. Now it is camping network. everything is fine.
so... i want to convert into E975(with india binary). but hesitating to do it is it ok?
Yes you can do it, flash the kdz you like, Indian ROM doesn't give you anything special, i say go for latest 10H or 10i.
After that I've written many times here in forums please search.
Flash rom
Root
Flash baseband
If you want custom recovery
Use freegee
And now please tell me what the hell is camping network you write.

Yes. Is just that for KK we need the lastets TWRP, which is not for Optimus G and we use the Nexus 4 TWRP. Or at least i think so. You can flash kdz.

The freegee backup is not nessesary for anything. If your phone is running stock firmware, i recommend root it using framaroot, and unlock bootloader with freegee. This will install a recovery.
If you already have TWRP, delete script lines of CWM recovery and install it. If you dont know how to do it tell me.

Freegee backup is your efs and boot files for later use if required. Save them in dropbox or something they are very handy in bad times.
If you are already unlocked with freegee than you have a custom recovery just boot into recovery and update the recovery using zip. Like the cwm one I have posted.
Yes if you are not unlocked, use the old freegee.apk

I've found the kitkat rooting tool for Optimus G Pro which was released yesterday. It's confirmed to be working for F240x series phones with KitKat.
StartRoot.bat will take you to a cwm recovery mode in where you can select the sideload option to install the root files. Once done, just install supersu from Play.
Just tried it on a F240K and works fine.
It's working On AT&T E980 (unlocked) E98018c too

Followed the instructions. The device is rooted. No issues detected

Or just use the power button + volume button combination to get into the recovery mode.
Thanks so much mate.. But which volume buttons do I press and when do I press them? Can you please give me more details? Much appreciated ! ;o)

With the phone turned off, press power & volume up buttons at the same time. Then when the white text message comes up, release both buttons.

Hello again Could you please advise me on how to flash a zip file from either internal or external storage? I've placed a zip file in both internal and external storage but I can't seem to access the storage paths.
Many Thanks

I've found the kitkat rooting tool for Optimus G Pro which was released yesterday. It's confirmed to be working for F240x series phones with KitKat.
StartRoot.bat will take you to a cwm recovery mode in where you can select the sideload option to install the root files. Once done, just install supersu from Play.
Just tried it on a F240K and works fine.

Hi. I just bought Optimus G Pro F240K. I have the stock recovery. How can I have CWM or TWRP without root? And I can't make this method work.
How can I unroot my LG-F240K?
As it got an OTA update.
And I am not be able to install it.

E980 doesn't go past Splash Screen after flash rom

So, I was looking at the thread for the Sphinx Mod and i decided to download v1.2.
I did a restore to stock V10k, rooted, installed cwm for freegee
Went into CWM and flashed the Sphinx zip first
Then flashed the patch for F240s and i read somewhere in that thread s patch worked
I successfully booted but then i did not have a signal so i though i needed to reflash baseband
So i did but now it does not boot up and only stays at the lg splash screen
I tried to restore back but it says the phone is now a different model
I tried using the LG mobile support tool to flash the kdz panama or telecel but i get an error
I need some assistance.
same here brother

If you can still get into recovery, wipe everything and format system. then flash without flashing baseband.(GET IT TO BOOT). charge it and then flash back to stock with lg flash tool. download the tot file for the E980. I hope this helps
ive tried g and it does the same thing havent tried the last one but assumed it wont matter

this is the DDL file that i have for my E980 and it reads: LGE980_20130314_LGFLASHv151. just wondering if it matches...
LGE980_20130314_LGFLASHv151 yes sir same dll here idk about him though.
For the instructions for the Sphinx mod, it said to do a 3 wipe which means dalvik cache and system
so i don't have the files anymore but i am able to get to recovery
have you....

have you tried:1) pulling the battery out
2) hold the power and volume button until hard reset menu apears.
3) if it does shows push the power button three times to get to recovery?(thats how i usually get to recovery).
