Hello Everyone,
Hopefully this issue can be solved, as I'm using stock Android JB 4.1.2 (E97510h-EUR-XX) on my device and there is no LTE option in:
- System Settings> More...> Mobile Networks> Network Mode
Now, I believe it can be enabled by making a change to persist.radio.lteon as found here:
- https://community.vodafone.ie/t5/Network/Supported-4G-Phones/td-p/137830/page/1
However, it requires root access and as far as I'm aware, there is no root exploit for E97510h-EUR-XX at this time:
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2249033&page=2
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2163814&page=5
Here are my questions:
1. Is there any method to replace or edit persist.radio.lteon without rooting my device?
2. If 1 is not an option, is there any method to successfully root my device?
3. If 2 is possible, can I unroot and will this process be undetectable?
Any help is much appreciated :good:

He hasn't bought a Korean Optimus G, but an E975. But for some reason if you put a SIM card from one carrier in the phone you cannot choose LTE, but if you put in a SIM from a different carrier you get the option to choose LTE. That's because LG has had the brilliant idea to block LTE for some carriers on an LTE enabled phone.
You can try contacting LG so they release an update so that LTE will be enabled for your carrier, but it would be faster to root your phone and adjust the build.prop like you said in the first post.

doesnt matter where mobile is form .. dont u see i bought from korea and europe soft was working but no lte so why he cant put korean onto european ?!?!?! it will still work + with lte enabled ..
contact lg god .. it is not down to them how do u want contact them and yeah they will tell you omg we are sooo sooryy we will correct it for you .. fkin pathetic .. they will crap on u .. man
lg doesn't block nobody .. the carrier needs send u setting .. dont u remember when 3g came up they been sending settings over SMS ? APN settings and MMS settings ? nowdays it is up to carrier send update over network NOT via sms .. and those carriers who has settings ready then 4g doesnt work ..

Why bother putting Korean software on your European phone and risk having a bad experience (due to the fact that Korean software is guess what optimized for Korean carriers)? When you can just root your device and change the build .prop which is less trouble and less risky to perform than to put a Korean software on it.
But to answer the question of the TS. You can root the E975 10 H firmware. I used Framaroot, and it works fine. You can read all about in the thread FAQ (Freaking Annoying Questions) in the Q and A section.

risky ? how can be risky .. so people here happily flashing third party roms and that's alright and when try to use original official rom then is risky ????! man are you OK?
optimized for their carriers ? no .. only APPS are included .. and those apps can be easily ignored ..
i think that your buildprop editing is risky .. ordinary people wont be messing with customizing files
wait for carrier till end of march then
I dont need to read nothing for me all working am enjoying LTE(4G) u dont it is your problem what u do ..
do what u want ..
Chill out dude. I'm only trying to help the TS out. He didn't ask anything about flashing a ROM, only to solve his problem with or without root.
Flashing any custom ROM is more risky than rooting a device. As it involves more steps then just rooting. So why make it hard for yourself?
Flashing a Korean ROM would mean flashing a KDZ file (that's the way I changed the E975 10 H back to E975 10 D) and that process probably changes the baseband of your phone(which is not the right one for the E975), so it could definitely influence the experience and battery life, etc.
You say that ordinary people won't mess with the build.prop file but they won't have any problem with flashing a Korean ROM?
BTW: There is no need in quoting the very last post everytime you make a comment, as it is clear what you're replying on.

That quote button has reason to be there .. that is why am using it ... And people know which answer belongs to particular person ..
for me is easy flash kdz ... and then obviously u need to flash modem back .. that is not hard too ..
And u are right in only one thing .. yes when people changing roms flashing then phone drains battery .. yes when I converted to E975 my F180S battery was very very bad .. I flashed original korean back and battery is much much better .
Like I said you can try korean if no leave it and wait for carrier to sort it out .. but they have time tho
No one here recommends to flash korean kdz in international versions nd vice versa too... Try some othr rooting methods nd try to change the build.prop.... Have yu tried moto chopper root method...??
Edit: looks lyk moto chopper method doesn't help yu... Yu cant yu downgrade ur software nd root it....

Hi,
I've got a brand new F180L phone with baseband version APQ8064/MDM9x15M and software F180L20s.
After searching forums I still cannot make heads or tails of this phone...
My questions are:
Can this phone be flashed to work on US T-Mobile network?
If yes, what is the maximum data rate possible?
Is there a good tutorial on how to do it? It appears this phone can be hard bricked by flashing wrong radio so I would like to avoid such mistakes.
I live in the "upgraded" area with 1900MHz frequency re-purposed.
Thanks in advance!

Hi there,
I am having the F180L and have flashed the E975 european version on it. It is working as good as stock, no issues so far in India with 3G, HSPDA or 2G (we dont have 4G yet). And ofcourse, all korean crap gone
The process is failrly simple, you just need to read through the forums, there is everything written here.
From here you can find the ROM's just pick one near to you; may be Europen E975 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2093382
Then use kdz to flash it on to your phone. No need to root your phone or else. Use google to find how to.
Root your phone
Then flash baseband of F180L;
A detailed description is here; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40477925&postcount=70
I hope it helped

Did you solved your problem? How did you do?
I have same problem in Argentina :crying: I have only GPRS
edit:
Lg Server is up again:
here the official E986 kitkat 4.4.2 update:
http://csmgdl.lgmobile.com/dn/downloader.dev?fileKey=FW428306432109876543213/E98620A_00.kdz
Some of the things you will get with this E986 firmware upgrade :
+ support for a large number of european languages
+ well working samba server
+ well working Windows "LG On-Screen Phone"
+ knock-off screen
+ free 50 gb cloud storage at "box" and other goodies when registering at "LG Smart World" app
+ adaptive network settings tailored on measure for the european provider landscape .
(There are user reports indicating that LTE services of some smaller providers are not integrated into the system yet)
please see post #4, #5 for further informations as well as cloud storage links to the E986 upgrade
Some general Information:
A majority of the posts here and in other gpro threads come from people that apparently dont use this device .
It is one of the sequels of swiss government's/parapolice's sell-out of LG stakes that they were once keeping. Unfortunately along with this my wife is kept now for the 15th consecutive year fully illegally imprisoned at the vienna airport(where i am right now)
...guess I had to give you an idea where most of the absurdity in this thread comes from.
Sorry
what is the fewest sour kitkat on e986?
deleted:
explanation in the following post
A turkish e986 kitkat update seems to be published.
Where is it available?
Since the e986 update situation is still rather difficult, it would be fine to have a place where relevant information is neatly collected and displayed.
edit:
As reported by smartphenom.com the update was already published in mid july.
Some bizare internet users (but certainly not GPro owners) called it "turkish rom", so that many GPro owners (like myself ) wouldn't be aware of it.
At least we know now for certain that LG did the job and some other bizare people that wanted to harm us E986 owners for reasons we will never understand tried (and still try) to hide it.
luckily this thread is at the point of getting pointless:
here is the inofficial release of the first official e986 kitkat firmware (it supports an amazingly large number of european languages )
the precise version denomination:
E98620a-EUR-XX
From my dropbox:
E98620A_00.kdz
From my Mega account:
E98620A_00.kdz

to get a data/internet connection:
Settings->Tethering & networks->Mobile networks->Access point names->tap menu button->chose "New APN"->fill in the first 2 lines:
do not think too much about it, the software does it for you as soon as there is anything filled into the first 2 lines of the access point settings form;
try something like: mydata
then tap menu button and "save".
note :
APN settings can be easily cleared to prevent unwanted [costly] data connections --> your GPro will then behave like a traditional GSM phone.
let me say the official e986 kitkat update is really good
[and..we all know by now how much better life would taste without illegal preservatives (police ****)]
in case the LG server is too busy:
E98620A_00.kdz
..
the empire strikes back
Very sadly the dark side continues to deny the existence of the very fine E-986 4.4.2 update. [download links in post 4&5]
Have a look at the "kitkat ..soon official" thread to be introduced to contemporary strategies of disinformation.
May the power be with you
so that life gets at least a chance to be good to all of us!

Does it delete the data when i flash this?
Sent from my LG-E986 using XDA Free mobile app
well..
according to my personal experience the data partition will not be overwritten by the LG update software. This is also the reason why a full reset after flashing might help if something doesn't work as it should.
So... it is certainly a good idea to backup as well and as much as possible beforehand.

What I definitely could observe is that the network settings menu on e986 stock kitkat changes with different network providers.
i.e with hutchinson "3" in Austria which doesn't provide 2g/GSM in the more populated areas [and switches to 2G only on the countryside], the "2G only" options disappear from the network settings menu and the network mode pop-up window. [To display them as non available would be more customer friendly, I guess]
Anyway I can't believe that there are GPro users who honestly believe being better off in Europe with a taiwanese firmware.

According to smartphenom.com the firmware was released on july 17, 2014 for the original 'Aturbk' package.
Since people called it consequently "turkish rom" instead of "first firmware release" LG didn`t get any support from the users to withstand the pressure from those police/stasi weirdos that messed up this thing.
I guess in our own interest we shouldn't call this official release "rom" anymore if we want LG to link it to all the other original packages.

You don't need to ROOT your phone to flash a firmware, that's just an update. And for unlocking a bootloader, hmmm much much smarter people than we are not able to do that, not yet.
I have branding Plus operator... That is problem, because I don't have a update, not yet... Maybe I wait for update, and update... So if I have an update do next firmware, I will updated a G3... But it maybe problem with firmware, because a lot of people have the same problem with me... If the update isn't remove this bug, I will send my smarthphone to the service...

You don't need to wait for OTA update you can update using a .kdz file.
Here is a guide how to do that:

Updating your phone will not avoid your warranty.
And what is even better you can always go back to stock firmware.

v10h or v10j fixes the issue for some people, me being one of them. I had restarts on v10e, running v10h now having no problems for 2 weeks at least. Granted, there are people that still experienced shutdowns or restarts even after updating to v10h or v10j

Flashed to V10j Global and did not have a single reboot since then
Hi all,
I just receieved my new LG G3 from Vodafone Australia. It's currently charging but upon inspection it has a model number which I hadn't noticed when I was researching the phone (LG-D855V).
I've attached pictures of the box, manual screens from the phone referencing the model number. Does anybody know what the difference is etc?
I'd say the V is just for Vodafone. You should DEFINITELY get to flashing a newer rom or doing an OTA update asap. That's the base rom for the phone, v10a. The latest 4.4.2 version is V10L I think. Alternatively, you can go to Android L. There's a dedicated LG G3 Australian Owners thread in the general section if you need help from any of us

Ah makes sense I guess. I've checked the hardware and it all seems identical to the D855. I came from a Nexus 5 with L and I'm already missing it so I'll definitely be looking to get an L rom on there.
Will take a look at the thread and do some reading. Thanks for your input.
did you get a gift?
optus is just d855; free wireless charger
telstra is d855k; free g watch
to clear confusion - you can flash d855 roms, the letter v doesnt matter. it confused me when i got mine lol.
DO NOT UPDATE IF YOU WANT TO ROOT!

HI,
I bought a Sprint Unlocked LG G8 , love the phone, but it stuck at g820u10i 2019 firmware , ota doesnt work , it just tells me Im already up to date , I reside overseas but I can buy a sprint sim from eBay if that works (maybe it is similar to the att ones?) .
Also sprint doesnt releases their kdz´s so thats another problem , I would like to know if theres a way to get the official otas directly from the phone .
I have already tried setting it up without the sim card , and then turning on wifi and it didnt work.
Any help would be appreciated , cheers.
Tried with LG Bridge and LG Support , powered on and in download mode.
Still nothing
LG Bridge says that couldnt find the device
LG Support Tool says that the device is up to date
I have the same problem
i try to cross flash the latest US OP KDZ (G820UM20j_00_USC_US_OP_0607) or CA OP KDZ(G820UM20j_00_OPEN_CA_OP_0120) on the phone but the LG UP will mention not allow to change a US sprint to US OP(CA OP) and could not proceed the flashing.

I'd suggest you both look at this thread.
@ThatLatinGuy if you're out of the country, no reason to want to keep Sprint firmware so might as well crossflash it to a rom that might work where u are.
cheers
Thanks Bro, let me try it.
