Hello there xda, I've been loorking here for a while now but not commenting or creating threads so much.
Now I need someone to clarify me something about LG Versions. I already did some research (with no good results tho, I must s*ck with google and search boxes) so some orientation here would be really appreciated.
Can anyone tell all the version of this phone and its differences?
I know about e970, e973, e975 and e987.
And all I know is that they may have some little hardware differences due to the carrier's decision.
But this brings me to a huuge problem when I'm looking for rooting, recovery methods and flashing roms. It seems that some of this actions can be done with some versions but not with all of them.
Precise question: mine is e987 by "Claro Argentina", so witch methods are compatible with my terminal?

I just bought a touch diamond (US 3G version), and would like to try some customized ROM released here.
One simple question, what is the latest or best HardSPL we can find now? I know there are a lot of threads about hardspl in the forum. But just too many. After 2 hours of reading, I still do not know which one is the newest one and the best one? Could you guys point me the direction and give me the link of that particular thread? Thanks a million.
Also, about the ROM, I am looking for a ROM with original HTC looking (basically black today screen and black touchflo 3D, though blue is probably fine with me), but faster, with all the tweaks applied. And if possible with latest OS builds. Any suggestions?
I did search and reading a lot. Just confused with so many different HardSPLs and ROMs. Hope someone more familiar with this forum can help me out. Thanks!
SPL's & ROM's...
Unfortunately, like so many things, ROM's are based on personal opinion, so there is no 'best' or 'worst', just one's you like and one's you don't.
Try here for your SPL - both GSM and CDMA versions covered. You must do this first or you'll end up bricking your device.
Next, just try the ROM's until you find one you like. The one I'm currently using is pretty much standard (as you would like), but with all the latest versions of applications / software and the latest drivers, etc. I think you'll like it! Try here.
Don't ask me how to tell if you have CDMA or GSM device because I've no idea how to tell the difference !
Have fun
AFAIK there is a sticky thread about HardSPL !
AFAIK in forum rulez the question whats the last / best rom are disallowed !
just read some threads please !
In the HardSPL thread the first and second post Oli explains everything Who should use what HARDSPL ... so dont think thats complicated.
Please UTFSE and flash some so you will know what u like best !!

Thanks a lot. I just flashed the HardSPL and the ROM you linked in your post. They works very well. Thanks!
One more question, I am working in a high building, and my desk is in the 3rd floor. I am getting very poor cell phone (GSM, T-mobile USA) here. I am wondering if anyone can suggest a better radio ROM for T-mobile USA? I really want a better signal reception. Thanks in advance!
Hi guys. Sorry for this, I was unsure where to look. I attempted to ask in a different section but was told to post here.
Here's the problem -
I am stuck with this cell , cannot make calls, connect to wifi, etc. I have read many complaints about this. Basically, I am told by others I need to flash it, and get an upgrade. Currently I am running Android 2.2.2. Sorry guys, I am VERY new to all this. I cannot seem to find any help upgrading it. Of course I cannot do so when attempting via the upgrade option in settings, due to the wifi issue. Can someone please point me in the direction of a tool kit which can be used with Mac OSX?
Also, when I attempt to make calls, I get something like "Reorganizing internal processes"
Software version is currently LGP925 - V10e
If I need to tell anyone anything else about it, can you please let me know? Im so bad with all this, again sorry. I am a recent convert from Windows to Mac. Just not sure how to get the proper tools I need. If I could find them, I can then very easily just follows the steps, which I made a note of.
Thanks so much for anyone who can offer a little assistance.
I suggest you ask in the Optimus 3D forums.
I would give you some links but I don't see P925, only P920 and P920H. Someoen who uses the Optimus 3D will know which version of things is right for you and get you flashed on a newer custom rom. :good:

MUCH appreciated, mate!
I had been experiencing issues with memory and decided to factory reset.
I have rooted, as this may be a result of that.
I receive the error on the boot screen, "Secure booting Error! Cause: boot certification verify"
I have tried entering the hard reset menu via Power and Vol. - .
Any guidance would be appreciated.

Of course.
If I revert to that thread mentioned (same one you posted first here), It is not for E970, just like, it seems, your thread.
Yeah,my thread is for the E975. A litle hint,this whole section if for E971/973/975,meaning Canadian and International Optimus G.
NOT AT&T or SPRINT.
So,i'm asking you again. Are you sure you read the right answers?
Just because i'm a nice guy, although we don't talk here about E970(totally different device), make sure you have unlocked bootloader. I don't know how the E970 behaves after a hard reset.Maybe it messed up your rooting/unlocking.
Use LGNSPT to revert to stock.
Ah, My mistake. And my apologies.
It took me a second to realize there is an entirely different forum.
Thanks.

I am aware of the model designations. However, it isn't abundantly clear in the main forum page for the OG that they have separate forums for each grouping of models.
I would appreciate it if you don't take me as one of your supposed "dumb people".
Just a little hiccup, is all.
I don't have "dumb people". It's a quotation from "Anger management",with Charlie Sheen. Not to mention there is a grea book http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17843928-smart-phones-dumb-people And i just find it so real. The smarter the phone, the dumber the user. Again, not directed to someone specially. It's kinda ironic,don't you think? I mean, with every new device launched,we need more and more knowledge to operate them,when it should be the opposite.But again, a smartphone will help us, not think for us.
Greetings. My name is Pedro, i am peruvian and have recently bought an lg v500 (non google play) wich i rooted to use some programs, like battery repair.
Now what i want to know is about upgrading to lollipop, since it seems that lg will NEVER update the plataform. Of course if i do so, i will need to know exactly what to do, specially since this is my only access to the internet.
Can you help me? I dunno much about flashing but i just wanna learn.

Maybe you should read a it more the forum before answering a question. (in the wrong forum).
Your answer is right below your question: [Tutorial][KDZ][LP][V500]Korean v30A How to Flash KDZ

Do NOT use that method/tutorial if you want to keep root; you will loose root when you flash the KDZ.
Instead, install a custom recovery ( read into what that is first) and then flash the rooted flashable zip of v30a.

Hi, newbie here who's rooted only once in the past (Core LTE.. don't laugh) so my knowledge is limited and I really appreciate any help I can receive. I'm looking to root a G7 ThinQ (lm-g710ulm) with software "V20p-LAO-COM".
I'm looking at following the thread by Awesomeslayerg and I think I have all my ducks in a row.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g7-thinq/how-to/howto-unlock-bootloader-root-g7s-t-mo-t4077105
But I'm stumped with regards to my software version. I can't find any good information about it on the web.
Is it even a risk? Is the solution simply to change it before doing the steps in the thread ?
