Hey, I've just bought what I believe to be a korean LG optimus g pro, in software information, it says it is running on android 4.1.2 and the software version is LG-F240-EUR, and in phone identity it says the model number is LG-F240. In LG PC Suite it says it is the latest version and I can't update to kit kat. I also can't find any updates or stock android / cm11 4.1.2 roms for this phone, and when I do, it says it is for either F240K, F240L, or F240S, but none for just F240. I don't care much about updating to kit kat, but I would love to get a stock or smooth / lightweight + cm11 rom for this phone, anyone know where I can find one? Thanks in advance!
Forgot to say, I'm also already rooted and running CWM, so that's fine.

As you may already know, the E980 is what most people compile for. There is CM11 for the E980. Also, there are no CM11 4.1.2 ROMs as CM11 ROMs are all 4.4.+ ROMs.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2786566
You'll want to look at this when you flash a CM11 ROM to your F240.
I think you should check your imei, just to be sure your phone is F240 or not

Any idea which variant of the F240 this is, and where I could get a CM10 or CM11 rom for it? I'm not bothered by being on an old android version, if it's CM for an older version then I'm happy with that as well.

I don't do walkthroughs for devices I don't own. Also if you don't know if it's f240 S/K/L then you might have some issues my friend.
The model # of your device should be printed on the back of the device when the battery cover is removed, both on the chassis itself and underneath the battery on the barcode+imei label.

Hmmm, let me get back to you. Are you using Windows? If so I could toss together a .BATch file to gank the necessary logs to identify your devices specific model and needs. I'm very familiar with the E980 needs, and pretty well familiar with the F240s/k needs, but I've not encountered a F240-EUR yet. I wonder which specific variant it is?
If you're familiar enough with Linux or command line ADB Android stuff, I could just shoot you some instructions on what to do. Need to research a little first; might be a few days, as I am without internet access, stuck bumming it where I can (pardon me, I'm a gutterdwelling dirtfarmer).

So is there a stock TOT you can flash with LG Flash Tools that works fine? If so, you could backup all your stuff then flash back to stock with LG Flash Tools. When the dialog pops up asking you which TOT & DLL to use make sure to tick the 'Enable XML Log' at the bottom of the dialog and choose somewhere to save the logs to.
After you're done with LG Flash Tool, it will generate three files:
- DiagCommand.xml
- setting.xml
- LOG\<model number>_COM41.log
The last one, the *_COM41.log is the most desirable, but all three would be useful.
What does a site like this tell you about the IMEI? Does the IMEI reported in the Settings->About->Status screen match the one listed on the label underneath the battery?
>as many said after updating the lg f240-eur the updaate was successful but the ssignal was lost forever
Which update is that? An OTA update? Kitkat? Lollipop?
Have you tried the F240L firmware for it? Have you had any success with *any* stock image?
At least that COM41.log will specify the stock firmware and model for the device -- as long as the right DLL is used maybe, as incorrect DLL can cause issues (for me, using F240 Lollipop DLL on an E980 I had modem issues (and probably more)). That can also be obtained from a parameter cat'able via ADB shell, but I cannot remember it offhand (not sure if the partition it's on is loaded by default?) -- can get back to you with that specific in a couple/few days if you choose not/cannot flash a stock TOT.
As always before you go mucking about, if there's any files you value on your device make sure to vacate them via backup.

hi...i checked it in the imei website(but not the one which u provided in the link) and it is shown as LG F240S.I will backup everything that i need.But what are the 3 files u mentioned?and what does com41 file for? if i flashed any rom or stock lollipop kdz for my f240s,then will i get issues with my phn network signals? actually before this g pro,i had both g2 and lg g pro f240l(both phns i gave to my cousins).i updated f240l to official lollipop and everything worked perfectly.but the case here is different.its lg f240-eur.im scared of doing experiments on this phn.moreover,the touch on the phn is sometimes unresponsive.need to double tap or need to lock phn sometimes inorder for the touch to work.so the touch prblm is due to the rom in this phn or the digitizer prblm???

Apparently they have official Lollipop for the F240S, so it seems like you should be fine with that. Just make sure the IMEI under the battery and the IMEI being reported in the About menu in the phone match, and it seems like you can't go wrong.
Touch problems, rom or digitizer? If the touch problems persist with stock Kitkat *and* stock Lollipop -- or with any other roms, then it's likely the phone. Digitizers are inexpensive and easy to install though, so if it is that you should have little problem replacing it. Check out Ifixit.com for their walkthrough on that for the E980. Simple stuff! Requires at most a precision screwdriver and maybe a hair dryer/heat gun (probably?).
> ut what are the 3 files u mentioned?and what does com41 file for?
That's unnecessary now that you've found the correct model number for your phone.
Pls how can i flash twrp on my F240k and where to download it

So is there any other way of gsm unlocking the LS980 for US carriers (T-mobile for me) without being on the two specific roms that do this? Like say Vanir, or omnirom, or the Glex rom? I see the build.prop method mentioned a lot but not the actual process for it, and does that work for US carriers? Also, I flashed Justin's stock JB rom on my ls980 so its going to say its a d801, how do i go back to my ls980 status? I may or may not have accidentally my backup too... any way to undo this without using the lg flash tool?
justin posted a guide on how to port pretty much any rom from any of the other carriers:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2596175&page=41
Look for post #410 (credit to justin)
So far Ive tried the energy rom in the tmobile dev section and the stock international version (d802). Both worked well and I especially liked the d802 because it had the fm radio app and it worked great. Some other users have ported verizon roms as well.
Ive also tried the build prop method with modest success:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2596175&page=41
Look for post #423 and remember ti use lowercase "spr" (credit to MA7MOD_GSM)
Unfortunately the build prop method has a few quirks. You have to dial a "1" before dialing a number otherwise the dialing app crashes. Also I couldn't get wifi tethering to work properly. Eventually I settled on the energy rom and its been my daily driver for about 2 weeks and I cant complain much.
I dont know if you can successfully flash a ls980 and get back on the stock rom without lg flash tool. If you want to go back to stock Id stick to the tried and true method namely the stock tot file and lg flash tool. Follow the instructions here: (credit to hyelton)

Any idea as to whether trying the romn compare method listed in Justins instructions would work with the base and another sprint rom. I believe the rom is called d3rp or something similar.

Thats a good question. I cant speak from experience but Id imagine that any stock based spring rom would still have the usa gsm carrier lock. Now if I remember correctly some users have reported that using the build prop method then flashing a sprint AOSP rom unlocked the phone for usa carriers. Again I havent tired it myself but its somewhere in the unlock thread here:

Ah, I tried the rom porting method with an ATT rom but it woyldn't boot. It got past the lg logo and got stuck on a black screen and at the top left it said Fastboot and under that it had a number code. I managed to restore from backup using twrp but any idea what that was or how to get past it?
Which ROM did u try? Also did u clear cache/dalvik before and after installation? Try any of ROMS in the international section. Ive ported a few international ones and never had a problem. also Im pretty sure that justins Tmo port has worked with att sims,

It was called something along the lines of grievous or grievious rom and yes, I wiped everything and I always clear both caches but it wouldn't boot and got stuck on the fastboot screen. I replaced all the necessary files although I did notice that the rom did not have the loki folder at all but I copied it anyway, is that maybe why that happened? Also, do you remember what other roms you've tried besides the energy rom?

Hi
Hi , I have flashed JUSTIN ROM posted in post# 239
It works fine , I have one issue and one query
- I can't set up any APN , by default it's T-Mobile. Even though I can add apn manually I can't select as there is no select button next to the apn.
Please note I am using this ROM in India/Airtel network (Need urgent help on this as no DATA is active)
- Is there any Kitkat version of this ROM
I have also attempted to use another ROM , following the instructions as per post #410
But after flashing my phone stuck in LG logo.
- Do I need to flash some other modem
- ROM which I were trying to flash is T-Mobile stock debloated (Kitkat) and I compared and did file adjustment against Justin's ROM (Sprint - T-Mobile , post#239 )

Hi guys, firstly i wanna thank you for this wonderfull forum, i've been reading it in and out for the last 3-4 weeks.
I managed to successfully root and flash a HTC one, a HTC desire, my good Samsung s4, and then..
A friend of mine has an LG Optimus g pro f240s, bought from Amazon - from Korea SK Telecom, we live in Europe (Austria).
As we had some security problems with the old (not updated for a long time) software 4.2.2 early this year, we decided to flash a custom Rom.
That is where the trouble begins. Now, i managed to root the LG Optimus G PRO and to install a Cyanogenmod ROM.
Everything was fine, except there has been NO SIGNAL.
Then, a week later - the new Stock software came in 4.4.2 and i have tried to update it through the official software, and i also have followed the guides here on XDA developers (the ones with adb interface, marwin2, https server, and so on). Nothing.
Then i have discovered that my WIN 8 computer is not the ideal environment for this operation, so i've installed WIN7 and tried once more.
I have been able to flash the stock based LGViet Rom 4.4.2, also found on this forums. Still have been getting service disabled.
Then the official APP from LG has finally been reading the phone, so i have made an official update, now having the official - stock version of 4.4.2 LG SK Telecom software.
The modem reads the same one that was there upon buying the phone (original one), the phone behaves normally, but - SERVICE DISABLED!!!
Please help, i have no root, no custom recovery now, but a very good looking tablet without being able to do phone calls!
I have been thinking - could this be an SIMLOCK issue? I have bought the unlock codes, but i do not have the original SK Telecom Sim, so there is no way to enter them. I have tried these codes 2945#*240# or 2945#*975#, but there is just NO POP UP menu to enter the codes!
What should i do to get the service working?
Thank you
EDIT:
the phone reads phone number and IMEI correctly,
HW info:
Model nr LG-F240S
Serial number correct
Android version 4.4.2
Baseband APQ8064/MDM9x15M
Kernel 3.4.0

nobody having an idea? please?
Issue : LG Optimus G PRO F240S, rooted, then back to stock--> LGViet 4.4.2 Rom, then Stock by the LG stock tool
problem: SERVICE DISABLED
idea 1 - is it Sim Lock?
idea2 - no idea

Have you tried *#*#4636#*#*?
Sent from my LG-E980 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Have you tried *#*#4636#*#*?
thank you for the code, i've tried it just now but after entering it it just disappears without any action. Suppose ill try to run the official update once more and try the code again.
there may be some rest data in my installation which hinder the menus or something...?

Hello dear forumites. This site has really helped me alot in the past to solve so many problems so I am first of all using this opportunity to thank all those who dedicate time to do alot of work and assist others.
Few months ago I bought an LG G2 Sprint which was unlocked for GSM because I had to ship it to my country. It came rooted and I saw somethings at that time that I didnt understand much, things like Xposed etc. Now I have much idea about those. What got me confused was when I decided it is time I try my hands on custom roms. I chose to use Cloudy G3 V2.0. Now the thing is , the phone came with Rayglobe Flex ROM and after doing some research here on XDA i discovered that ROM is used to unlock sprint usually. Infact I didnt know Sprint LS980 is originally meant to be CDMA.
One thing I was initially confused about while trying to install CLoudy G3 was determining what exactly my version was. It came in a Sprint Box almost new, had LS980 written on it at the back, but when I go to hardware information in the phone settings, its shows
Model number : LG D802
Software information shows:
Android Version: 4.2.2
Baseband Version: M8974A- ........ (letters and figures follow)
Kernel Version: 3.4.0
Build number: Rayglobe Flex 3.5
Software Version: D80211Z
So i'm like, can it be a D802 and also be an LS980?
Now I followed the instructions here on XDA and installed Cloudy G3 and chose Sprint Variant in the option, but when it was done, it was just stock on the LG bootlogo, left it for over 30minutes, restarted it, same thing. I had to restore back the Rayglobe, thank God I backed it up.áá
Now I decided maybe it was the Rayglobe causing problems so why not return the phone back to stock, again I got all instructions here and followed. I got stock here for a while because when i went to the page to download the zip file that has the .tot file for Sprint I saw three different ones :
LS980ZV8_13.zip
LS980ZVA_01.zip
LS980ZVC_12.zip
I dont know the difference between these 3 but i chose the first one but just while LG Flash tool became to flash the stock ROM I chose, it stocked after about 2 secs and said the phone model.
Lastly I decided to try cloudy g3 again. First time I tried it that it got stock on bootlogo, I installed, went back and wiped phone before restarting. This time I just installed and restarting straight, by the time it restarted I had a black screen with:
[xxx] Fastboot mode started
[xxx]udc_start()
* forgot the numbers representing xxx but i think one was 980 or so.
Really sorry for typing this much I just wanted to spell out all the problems encoutered. After this I had to restore back the Rayglobe. Right Now I seem to be stock with this rayglobe. What do I do please.
Note: I have not been able to move to kitkat because when I go to software update, it always tells me I am already using the lastest even though its on 4.2.2.

Hello dear forumites. This site has really helped me alot in the past to solve so many problems so I am first of all using this opportunity to thank all those who dedicate time to do alot of work and assist others.
Few months ago I bought an LG G2 Sprint which was unlocked for GSM because I had to ship it to my country. It came rooted and I saw somethings at that time that I didnt understand much, things like Xposed etc. Now I have much idea about those. What got me confused was when I decided it is time I try my hands on custom roms. I chose to use Cloudy G3 V2.0. Now the thing is , the phone came with Rayglobe Flex ROM and after doing some research here on XDA i discovered that ROM is used to unlock sprint usually. Infact I didnt know Sprint LS980 is originally meant to be CDMA.
One thing I was initially confused about while trying to install CLoudy G3 was determining what exactly my version was. It came in a Sprint Box almost new, had LS980 written on it at the back, but when I go to hardware information in the phone settings, its shows
Model number : LG D802
Software information shows:
Android Version: 4.2.2
Baseband Version: M8974A- ........ (letters and figures follow)
Kernel Version: 3.4.0
Build number: Rayglobe Flex 3.5
Software Version: D80211Z
So i'm like, can it be a D802 and also be an LS980?
Now I followed the instructions here on XDA and installed Cloudy G3 and chose Sprint Variant in the option, but when it was done, it was just stock on the LG bootlogo, left it for over 30minutes, restarted it, same thing. I had to restore back the Rayglobe, thank God I backed it up.áá

LS980ZV8_13.zip = 4.2.2 JELLY BEAN Stock firmware for LG G2 Sprint LS-980.
LS980ZVA_01.zip = 4.2.2 JELLY BEAN Stock firmware With Some More LTE Bands Unlock(Sprint Spark) for LG G2 Sprint LS-980.
LS980ZVC_12.zip = 4.4.2 KITKAT Stock firmware for LG G2 Sprint LS-980.
LS980ZVD = 4.4.2 KITKAT Stock firmware with Knock Code for LG G2 Sprint LS-980.( Currently, I'm also using this)
LS980ZVE = 4.4.2 KITKAT Stock firmware with improve HD Voice Calling for LG G2 Sprint LS-980.(LATEST Till DATE as of now i.e: 28th OCT,2014)
And as far I can guess, D802 is the international model of LG G2 and you flashed the firmware of Sprint Variant Of LG G2.
Sprint Variant = LS-980
International = D802
All models:
LG G2 D800 for AT&T
LG G2 D802 for Europe (International)
LG G2 D802TA for Australia (International)

You can try to flash the D802 Stock ROM from LG Flash tool or any other flash tool program which supports D802.
But as always, backup everything including your EFS !

Thanks so much for your response. I will try to flash the stock ROM D802. But from your judgement, do you really think my phone might actually be D802 even when it came in a Sprint box and has "LG- LS980" written at the back of the phone?
Also can you paste here the exact link to the D802 firmware I need a there are so many different D802 on:
http://storagecow.eu/index.php?dir=Xda/LG+G2/Stock/
Wow, I just discovered my Light sensor and rotation is not working, after the failed attempt to flash Cloudy G3 and also a failed attempt to Return to stock ROM. went back to the Rayglobe 3.5 that came with my phone but I just discovered my light sensor is not working. Phone not rotating. Camera takes pictures inverted (probably related to the rotation problem), screen doesn't go blank when I hold the phone close to my ear when in a call (probably related to light sensor), Auto brightness also not working. Please heeeeeeelp!!!

Well, that is what is written at the back of the phone and since it came in a sprint box when I bought it off ebay, i will guess so. But the hard were information says it's D802. I explained the dilemma in my first post.

Hello friend. Why do you say it looks weird? Actually, I was able to install cloudy g3 in the morning. Though I got stuck at lg life is good logo for a long time, it eventually booted after many restarts. After that I discovered my data and mobile network was totally disabled. I followed the instructions to use tellinfo app and that got my data rectified but mobile network was still inactive and greyed out even after following the instructions. I did everything possible but my mobile failed to work to I had to return back to the old Rayglobe ROM. Check out earlier screenshot I took.
You simply had an ls980 with build prop mods (d802 visuals in info) and an old baseband. Flash zdc baseband and a 4.4.2 stock based ls980 or multi rom and you are ok

Hello friend. Thanks for your reply. But I searched the whole of this forum and google but couldnt find anything like zdc baseband. Please would you be kind enough to provide a link to this? Also when you say flashing a 4.4.2 stock, you mean using the LG Flash Tool right?
Do you also have an idea why my Light sensor and Auto Rotate are no longer working?
Is it advisable to do a complete wipe and then trying to flash back to stock afterwards? Cos my phone has been acting funny lately. Restarts often, hangs alot plus light sensor and auto rotate not working

Hi,
Absolute complete newbie here when it comes to any type of fiddling with Android. I have no idea where to start.
I used to have a Nexus 5, I loved the stock experience. I now have an LG G3 D855. LG's version of Lillipop is fine but it's no where near as good as stock.
I know the G3 can have stock lollipop put on it but I have no idea where to start. Is there a step by step guide somewhere I can use or would someone on here have the time to write one up for me? (A lot to ask, I know so I won't be offended if you say no!)
I'm not a total newbie in regards to tech. I've build PCs and all that. I've just no idea where to start with android or how to change my phone.
Thanks in advance if anyone can help.

Moving to Stock LP
easiest way to get to LP is by getting your current firmware from here: http://lg-firmware-rom.com/
then upgrade to that kdz from with lg flash tool 2014, from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2797190
also need LG Mobile Support tool: http://www.lg.com/au/support-mobile/lg-G3-D855-Metallic-Black
Root & Custom Recovery
root with this tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g...lipop-t3056951
then install twrp with this http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/apk-flash-twrp-autorec-thanks-to-t3081396
keep up to date of LP updates with http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/stock-t2961073
i also think you have your terminologies confused; what you call 'stock' i think you mean the google nexus software or 'google edition'. 'stock' in fact refers to the firmware that LG pushes out. the other option would be 'custom', which is where you install software not made or endorsed by the phone's vendor, such as Cyanogem Mod. to install these 'custom' roms, you'll need to be rooted & have a custom recovery (twrp) installed to flash said 'custom' roms.
for me, i have stock LP and use tweaksbox, which customizes many aspects of the software. if you're interested, i can run you through on how to get it, because there are a few things you need to do.

So, first I'll quickly detail how I upgraded. Coming from Blisspop, I ran Autorec for Lollipop (linked in OP), rebooted to recovery, wiped flashed the ZVG radios (linked in OP), flashed the rom, and it was good to go. No tot back to stock required for me (YMMV).

I did the exact same thing to my ls980 coming from Blisspop 2.3 and it just looped at the LG boot logo. Then I flashed the kernel to see if that would work and now I can't even get the lg flash tool to see my phone in download mode! I can't even flash back to stock! Before that I tried to restore my my twrp backups but none of them are working now. Kinda pissed, not blaming anybody. I just wish sometimes things weren't explained in such a bleak manner. The more specifications the better. In other words, depending on which version of Blisspop and what phone model you're using....this might now work for everybody.

It's all good on my end. For some reason the laptop that I only use for flashing my phone to stock was set to the wrong com port. I flashed to stock, upgraded to ZVG, rooted, used AutoRec Lollipop, wiped everything except internal memory, flashed the rom, waited a little bit for the LG logo to disappear and everything has been smooth ever since. It's a nice, minimalistic, clean rom. Indeed worth the trouble, good work. One question? How can I get a menu button in the navigation bar in this rom? Is it there and I just can't find it?

Sorry, I'm fairly new with rooting and putting roms on my device so I need some assistance if possible. I current have the Sprint LG G2 device currently running cloudy 3g 2.1 prior to the Lollipop update. I was wondering if someone can do a video or walk me through returning it to official so I can OTA update to Lollipop and then get the rom ultrapop 1.2. Sorry to bother everyone just a noob here trying to learn on how to become more efficient on changing and updating roms.
Thank you,

First question, did you put the phone to cloudy 3g 2.1? It did you buy it that way?
Which service provider or carrier are you on? Sprint or someone else?
These are important as stock will only allow sprint to work.
