[Q] OTA error F240K and Overheat - LG Optimus G Pro

I have a F240K. I just flashed it back to stock using KDZ to update OTA to Kitkat. But it show an Error message: " Registered error: Update service is limited...". How can I fix this?
My phone get hot very fast. after surfing internet for just about 20 min the CPU temperature reachs over 60 degrees. Is it normal?

If you dont have any data on your internal sdcard . Do some factory reset at least 3

I see reports from users super overheat then damage only via OTA my advise
Do it via flash the ROM on custom recovery.
Optimus G Pro Kanged

Search for f240k20e tot file then use the flash tool to upgrade to KitKat.

[Q] Note 2 failing to Update to New firmware DMC3

Hello All... I am facing issue in updating to new firmware DMC3... my fone is showing me that update is available and when i download the package(of around 35 MB)... it asks me if i want to install now....the phone reboots into downloading mode and at 25%...the installation fails and fone is booted normally and i get the message that can't update...please try KIES or contact service centre...
I tried KIES...it took 2 Hours to download the update(i have 2Mbps broadband connection :victory then the fone again went into downloading mode but the update never started and it got stuck.. i manually booted the fone again... and no other intimation
My fone was rooted without any custom rom... i unrooted it.. i can see the status as NORMAL thats y i get OTA update itimation... so i dont think root is an issue...
This update is really pissing me off... please anyone has any suggestion..you are most welcome..
Why don't you just download newest ROM from samMobile and flash it with Odin? I do this and it works beautifully. Yo have to root afterwards, but that is a 3 minute operation.
thanks man appreciate ur help...this worked

[Q] E975 running e973 stock kdz

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.

OTA update bricked my phone. Need advice

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

[Q] Help Needed! How To Flash Stock Recovery for LG Optimus G Pro

I installed cwm recovery soon after I got my LG Optimus G Pro because I wanted Android 4.4.2 Kitkat but after installing multiple ROM's I wasn't very satisfied with the battery life so I returned to the stock ROM.
I got the notification for the OTA from At&t for Android 4.4.2 but because I have cwm recovery I can't install the OTA.
I have been searching the internet and countless forums and every solution I have found hasn't been clear enough on how to return to the stock recovery.
If anyone can help me on this it would be greatly appreciated!:good:
Which version of LG G Pro do you have?
Irrespective of the version you can try unrooting using the menu entry in SUPERSU app. Then run the OTA.
I have a LG E988 which is the international version. I had ROOT but I updated using the LGMobile Support Tool on my PC. Update to KitKat went through fine and as expected I lost ROOT.

Dont ever do this. This will softbrick your device and will cause it to go bootloop into recovery. Your best option is to flash kdz/tot. Just backup everything.

So many opinions - no authatative answers
I need to unroot and get the OTA 4.2 for mt AT&T Optimus G Pro (E980) too.
So far in this thread it has been suggested to:
1. Unroot with SuperSu and get the OTA
2. Flash the stock 4.2 with LG Tools
3. Flash the stock (pre-4.1.2 I assume) using a ROM manager I assume?
4. Never unroot with SuperSU and get the OTA as it will "softbrick" (whatever that is)
I'm a newbie to this and barely got my AT&T Optimus G Pro (E980) rooted because there were so many conflicting methods, only one worked and that was after re-installing ADB to a lower version.
What is a newbie to believe with all this conflicting advice? Is there a moderation team that will flag the correct answer?
Thanks Guys

Someone answer this quick question for me...

Can I flash the new 10l ota with the bumped twrp recovery instead of the stock recovery? I don't have a back up of stock and don't wanna restore. In on 10h euro at the moment
If you mean by purely accepting the ota then no it won't work. If you have the zip file then yes it will probably work.
The easiest method would just be to no wipe flash the kdz of 10l then reinstall bump.

Thanks for the reply, how would I no wipe kdz 10l ice never done this before ?
I updated mine and I am on the same firmwareI did was use LG pc suite and did my upgrade from there then just use purple drake lite and flashed the bumped twrp using flashify and had no problems
Use lg flashtool 2014 which you can find on Xda (google search it) then you can flash a kdz file either a normal flash or a wipe flash it gives you the options.
