I rooted my international version E975 last night but because I'm a bit noob I didn't realise I also had to unlock the bootloader. So when I installed CWR I got stuck in the secure boot loop. I managed to get out of that with the KDZ loader through 'download mode' however I wasn't able to find the correct stock rom. Each time I tried to download the australia E975 rom it would fail download half way though, getting only 500mb or so.
I tried heaps of other links to the rom but they all seem to be broken. In the mean time I found another rom and loaded it without realising it was for the E973. So it's out of the boot loop, but it thinks it's an E973 now and I don't have any 3g/data access and the rear camera doesn't work.
So my question is: where can I find the stock rom for the australian version of E975? and ultimately I want to root, unlock bootloader and install the custom 4.3 rom. Do I first need to be back to 4.1.2 to do that? or can I do it from the wrong E973 rom, running 4.0.4?

Why not try the rooting procedure again on the existing Rom, unlock boot loader, install CWM and flash any custom Rom you want ?

That would definitely solve the problem of not being able to find the stock rom, but I was concerned that most of the guides I've read state that the starting state should be 4.1.2.
I'm worried that starting with the E973 rom might cause some incompatibility during the root/unlock/freegee/rom install...

I'm not an expert, but I believe you can flash any Rom as long as you do a clean wipe, and the hardware supports it.
Edit:
Well, maybe you better wait till a real expert confirms this.

I rooted and used freegee to put cwm on. I tried to flash a rom but on boot it says com. android phone has stopped. I click Ok but it reappears instantly. Occasionally it also says nfc has stopped. I need all the help you guys can offer. Thanks!!!
Turn off your phone. Boot into cwm and do a restore of your backup. This seems to be a problem with the ROM, can you link to it?

It says no files for the back up. Basically I'm screwed? It was the Canadian cm10.2
use kdz updater to return to stock. or make a total wipe,push rom and gapps via adb and reinstall the custom rom again.

I've tried to return to stock using kdz but I click flash and 2 lines of code appear saying it started. How long should it take to flash? Right now I'm just trying to side load a stock variation. I'm just new to adb and flashing on computers.

That is because u have installed wrong baseband on your phone. Recover your previos stock rom and copy modem.img from it, you can find many HOW TO here on this forum. Only after that flash new ROM, copy your original EFS and modem into it.
Wrong rom or wrong kernel probably due to wrong rom. Try the above or flash a kernel appropriate for your Android version.

Hi guys,
here's y problem. My phone runs Cyanogen since I got it but I wish to sell it now. For that I have to put it back on an official ROM. When I try to do it through Odin (with Officials ROM from Sam Mobile) it breaks my phone. I mean that I don't have network anymore, just "Only emergency calls". I noticed that my IMEI was changed each time I flash an official ROM with Odin. I foudn out how to solve the problem (by flashing an old modem through CWM) but then my ROM's modified and I can't, for example, search for an update 'cause it says I modified the software.
I'm looking for a way to have back an official ROM without have a wrong IMEI after the Odin flash.
Thanks.
Try to flash the stock rom via odin and restore efs backup.
Hope this helps.

Are you running the latest recovery? 4.4 ROMs require the latest TWRP or CWM.

If you are reflashing stock KDZ, you don't need to worry about unrooting, as it will wipe off everything you currently have on your phone, anyway. For information about flashing KDZs (and a whole lot more), here is a good place to start. Original stock ROMs for OG are available here -- pick the one you need.
Hi all,
mt LG Optimous Pro G E988 has been working fine for 6 months,
But over night there was a OTA update, and now my phone is "stuck"
I say stuck because it will boot with the message
"Secure Booting Error"
"Cause: Device Unlock!! So Boot Sucess!!!"
then it goes into my CWM Recovery....
I had rooted with cwm
Here is where I am having the problem. It never fully installed the OTA update, because I had a boot loader installed.
I had tried to wipe everything and do a factory update, but no use.
I also tried using LG Mobile Support Tool to reflash the factory ROM
as per: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45953380&postcount=1
Yesterday when I tried it, the LG f;lash tool said it was not able to connect to the LG Server
But today the program is saying there is not enough power and may cause a problem.
I have just charged the phone for 9 hrs straight. I don't believe that it's undercharged
Is there a way for me to flash the phone with the original ROM without connecting to LG's server (using their Support Tool)?
Please help.
Thanks
Since you already have CWM installed I hope you have a backup which you can restore. Backup your apps and settings using tools like super backup or titanium. Then reload the JB 4.1.2 kdz from pc. You can look for the steps on xda forums. Once that is done successfully you will loose root. Then try official update via OTA. Or you can try to update via pc tool. Someone already shared the kitkat kdz on xda forums. You can try that too. All the best.

Unfortunately I do not have the backup anymore.
I also tried updating via the LG Mobile Support Tool, which did not work as it gives an error about not being able to connect to the server
I tried the guide from Madmack "[GUIDE] [E980] Fix soft bricks. Flash back to stock using LGFLashTools"
But I have not been able to locate the TOT file for the international E988
I tried to use the one he provided and it did not work (yea I'm desperate to try anything now)
Anyone out there have a TOT file for the international E988?
Or is there a way to crate one from the KDZ files?
please help
thanks
Not sure why you need a tot file. Kdz is fine. Look in xda for guides on loading the kdz file. That is a sure way of unbricking your phone. If it is still bricking after kdz load go jnto stock recovery and clear all caches and reboot. Most guides i have used mention this as an optional step.

Same thing happened to me with the value update. You have no choice but to reflash stock with the lg flash tool. I flashed mine with the telcel flashware but got brave enough before the kitkat update to flash back to att with .tot file .You should be fine once you reflash stock
