i have a rooted f180k.i already unlocked the bootloader with freegee, however i cannot find any compatible custom recovery,eg cwm. how can i install e975 european rom on my phone? please explain im new to android
lol, enter the download mode -> flash E975.kdz -> Profit
You dont need root, custom recovery or unlocked bootloader for this.
FreeGee installs a recovery.
why you would Flash a KDZ which is not for your Phone?
flashing e975 kdz to f180l is possible but be reminded that your network signal may become problematic like my phone, im still stuck with ics 4.0.4 because whenever i update to f180l 4.1.2 via ota my network signal is lost, already tried flashing e975 rom and f180l baseband but to no avail..

hi guys
so there i have a difficult situation on the e975
i flash avatar rom through cwm and after a while using it i decided to go back to stock rom through kdz updater from lg, ive done this several times in the past with no problems but this time it stuck on the lg animation, after that i decided to try teenybin so i can have a custom recovery to flash roms, the problem is that teenybin completly destroyed my phone, not even cant flash roms through sideload but the original/stock recovery has gone so i cant get to lg to fix it
so any way of help here?

Try THIS tutorial to flash your kdz.. Also it's wierd because if you succesfully flash an kdz file (using any method) you should be completly (re)locked and unrooted.

i can barely remember what i was doing, im sorry
if you come from 4.4 you can flash through the lgspst from the teenybin thread the 975 kdz file by renaming it to bin, and then because you are with the ls970 dll file, you can root it, flash cwm through freegee then go to cwm and clear everything (data cache sddata system dalvik nothing else) and then go to download mode again and flash the original e975 kdz through the kdz updater, its a lengthy process but thats how i did it until i or someone else find another more short way
Hi, I made a mistake flashing gomdolight wave on my lg g pro f240k stock rom. I was on Kitkat stock rom and flashed gomdolight which i believe is intended for JB only. After flashing, my phone got stuck on bootloop. I tried to download and flash another version of gomdolight which is intended for Kitkat but still, bootlooped again. What should I do? Can I flash other custom roms instead? Thanks in advance for those who would help.

First go in your recovery (if you did not install one download and install)
wipe / data
wipe / cache
wipe / davilk
wipe / system
ok, download a custom stock rom and place on your SD, this can be here
(make sure it's rom works on your device, it is 32gb or 16gb, if not this rom, look for one that is installed by the recovery)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2419802
put it in the right place (follow the tutorial that is in the link)
Note: you will not install it by zip, will make a recovery.
Now that you have solved the problem of bootloop ..
You must return your original rom, for that you'll have to use the FashTools

Sorry, TOT is for E980, you need to use KDZ for your model. Tehre is a thread in the forum with all the kdz and tot files for the g pro.

I Have LG E989 (brazil) and this rom work in my phone...
after all... all roms is compatible... but... the modem is other...
Use this rom... u need recovery any stock. After you stay in stock is possible u use KDZ files.. (FlashingTools)
I solved it!
Thanks to everyone who replied! I already solved it.
What I did, was flash a stock e980 version via KDZ Flasher, then I re-flashed back to my stock f240k. It worked, all signals were back.
I'm now proceeding on upgrading to Kitkat. Thanks again.
Firstly sorry bad english
İ used cm12 nighty after İ instaled sling 3.20 and mcdev6,artmod7, my lgog signal strength very very low down (probably related to the baseband) I want to install the original tr (turkish) software but i can not install old and new 2014 lg flash tool
finally i can instal 10f twn with old flash tool but phone storage only 200mb ( factorty reset not work) and signal strength very bad
if I do update with PC suite improves
In the select type window of LG flash tool you need to use CDMA and in the Phone Mode Window you need to use DIAG or Emergency.Then use the CSE Flash Button and let it install Stock Rom.
If you are lucky you will have your signal strength back and everything is fine if you won't have any Signal you need to flash your EFS Partitions.If you didn't backup them when they were still working then you are doomed
Warning:CSE Flash will wipe your complete Phone Storage!!!So backup everything you can and then do a CSE Flash
Hope I could help you.:fingers-crossed:
LG E975K update refused "device WAS rooted"
I have attempted to update my E975K (Telstra phone - Australian) 5 times. 3 downloads of 1Gb and 2 of 550MB. All failed with update usually stuck at 4% when using LG PC Suite and using up 3Gb of my small quota.
I tried using the phone app to update: 1st error (after full download of 550Mg failed. Received message that device was rooted = no update.
Unrooted my phone, cleaned it as much as I knew. Second attempt failed! Message: it seemed my device WAS rooted, therefore no update allowed.
I give up. I don't know how to remove traces of the root. If anyone is able to show me the way, much thanks in advance. KajoB

Yes If you unlocked with FreeGee it automatically made a EFS Backup that you can restore.

As the title says, I converted a US990 to a LS990 and then flashed Cloudy G3 1.2 for the LS990.
Calls work on both AT&T and T-Mobile but I can not get data to connect for either network.
I have put in the correct APN settings and changed the network around from GSM only to LTE only as well as all the others but nothing will let me get data.
I have tried different basebands/modems from the US990 and LS990.
I also flashed modems from all the other G3 variations but still no data.
Only the ZV4 & ZV6 modems from the LS990 allow calls to work.
I do not want to put the instructions for how to do the conversion unless I can get data working.
Anyone have any ideas?
Can you post your steps of how you converted a US990 to LS990
Noones gonne be able to help you if we dont know what you did...
I did not want to post these instructions because I knew people would start making bricks. I am done with this.
So I am thinking that this conversion can be made simple by flashing cloudy g3 for the LS990 to the US990 and then flashing the ZV4 or ZV6 modem from the LS990.
Could you please let me know if that works? I am trying to figure out if this US990 is worth keeping or just selling at a loss on eBay.
please upload nandroid
Abu Siona said:
This is true. I just did not want a bunch of people trying to convert the phone and then be stuck not being able to fully use it.
I will keep it simple for now then and there may be an easier way to do this.
I rooted the phone and installed TWRP.
I had a nandroid back up for an LS990 that I restored to the US990.
I used a restore because whenever I tried to install a rom that was meant for an LS990 it would fail and corrupt the system partition. This would lead to needing to either restore the US990 from a Twrp back up or using a KDZ to get the phone working again.
The reason that I even tried this is because the US990 system board is labeled as an LS990. Makes me think that the hardware is identical.
After the nandroid restore the phone lost its ability to boot to the system and started in fastboot mode. it still had download mode too so I used an LS990 ZV4 tot and flashed the tot using LG Flash too. It booted straight up after the tot flash and was now an LS990.
I proceeded to root and install cloudy G3 1.2 for the LS990 from a nandroid.
I had to use a nandroid to install because the phone has a bad touch screen and I can not run the aroma installer from TWRP to finish installing the cloudy rom.
Dark unicorn was also installed from a nandroid back up because it will fail to install on the US990 even after the conversion causing the system partition to become corrupted.
At this point calls worked. I did not try to send or receive a text yet.
Calls also worked with the dark unicorn lollipop rom for GSM on the LS990 but again no working data.
Using T-Mobile my network connection is UMTS at best but no data working
Using AT&T I get HSPA but no data working.
I tried different modems but nothing helped. Only the LS990 modems were able to get calls using sim cards from AT&T and T-mobile.
It looses a signal if I switch to 2G only and LTE only but works good on GSM only and WCDMA only as well as the variations that include multiple connections like GSM and WCDMA.
When I did the first restore using the LS990 back up I forgot to remove the EFS partition and so my ESN got changed. I had to fix it.
This is pretty much where i am right now with the phone. It is fully recognized as an LS990 by flashtool and PC.

I second that.
I actually made a LS990 Nandroid backup, restored and no help. Flashing Cloudy 1.3 while selecting LS990 gave same results as restoring LS990 nandroid backup. In both cases, I had to restore the device back to stock using US990 kdz. Also, don't use US99020a firmware to restor as TWRP won't work on that, though root is possible.
I tried CM12.1 Unofficial which was released last week as well but that does not unlock the device either.
Don't know where I'm wrong, do I need to backup EFS as well?

I restored the US990 back to stock and started from scratch. I got it working again without using the nandroid this time.
From a stock US990 I rooted and installed TWRP for the US990.
I installed cloudyfa G3 1.2 for the LS990.
I deleted the LAF partition to get into fastboot mode.
I flashed the following from ZV4 LS990:
fastboot flash aboot aboot.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash dbi dbi.img
fastboot flash factory factory.img
fastboot flash misc misc.img
fastboot flash modem modem.img
fastboot flash persist persist.img
fastboot flash PrimaryGPT PrimaryGPT.img
fastboot flash rct rct.img
fastboot flash rpm rpm.img
fastboot flash sbl1 sbl1.img
fastboot flash tz tz.img
Thanks to autoprime for hosting the LG partitions.
After the partitions were flashed I was back to working calls and text using my GSM sim but still no data.
If you have unknown baseband after flashing cloudy G3, then you will need to flash back to stock using an LS990 ZV4 tot and then root, install TWRP for LS990 and then install cloudy again to get the baseband to stick.
One of the most important things here is the modem. Only ZV4 and ZV6 from the LS990 will allow the GSM hack to work. And I have had the unknown baseband if I flash cloudy on any LS990 other than ZV4.
I will need to make a new nandroid. I will make one from the US990 that I already have working on GSM and post a link when done but you will still need to flash at least the modem from LS990 ZV4 to get it to work.

Here are both the nandroid and LS990 ZV4 partitions.
The nandroid is LS990 cloudy G3 1.2 backed up from the US990 with working GSM.
It includes only the system and boot.
Nandroid: https://mega.co.nz/#!3A83nRoJ!R2dV_LSlbp13ZOjhTPCoyeD8lre_psbiA6_2JRF7fV0
LS990 partitions: https://mega.co.nz/#!LVEgnAAB!sOfUHLw-CGOeHxFbYMuyhA0NEJR3xC4UsXli1nxx3Lg
There is a flash.bat in the partitions folder. it only flashes the partitions that I mentioned. It does not flash recovery.

Thanks a ton for this! I am kinda lost on deleting LAF and getting in to fastboot as after I flashed Cloudy 1.3 with boot.img removed, all I can get in to with holding Volume up is download mode and not fast boot.
Also, are the partitions supposed to be flashed using fastboot? Please provide instructions.

Also, the phone now boots into MiniOS-ATT-Test Tool and appears to be a D851 now. I am super confused as I have been noticing that on the back of the phone it has D851 written on it too along with US990. Do you think I should try flashing D851 partitions instead of LS990?

Yeah the mini os. Forgot about that one. After it boots to mini push and hold the power button. then after the first test passes scroll down a bit and select normal boot while still holding the power button.
As far as flashing back to US990 goes, you would need to flash a US990 nandroid and maybe some of the partitions to get flashtool to see the phone as a US990. Right now you may be able to flash the LS990ZV4 KDZ and then proceed to install cloudy.

the D851 is only on some of the parts because LG uses them in different models. I flashed D851 modems to the phone and none worked. The phone lost baseband and I had to flash it back to an LS990 Modem.
