[Q] New Indian firmware.. V10C - Optimus One, P500, V General

A new official LG India firmware has been launched, V10C. it's on android 2.2.1 and gets 31fps on neocore. So I guess it's the same as the V10E that people are describing.
The SD card still behaves weirdly, not sure about unmounting since I've not made any calls. Overall, the system has become noticeably slower. Would it be safe to roll back to V10B using the KDZ updater?

Yes, you are right. It's hard to even root the handset.

Try the optimus prime-v2, its fast and will meet your requirements. SD card problem is rare in it and the entire firmware sits on SD card, so you get a lot of free memory.

Not dev thread.
Moving to general.
Cheers

Ok I tested it out.. this firmware is quite horrible and it did not fix anything and the phone has become really slow in every way. I'm reverting to V10B for now, no choice. Hope all goes well.

I have strange problem after upgrading my p500 to v10c. it stopped notify me for any incoming calls. even vibration is not working in the silent mode. But the called number listed as missed call. pls somebody throw some light on this issue.

How to downgrade from v10c to v10b?

Sluggish and useless
Seemed like LG rushed this update. The device becomes too slow and sluggish. Upgraded and downgraded after 2 hours. Rooting through conventional means is broken.

Not upgrading. My P500 works fine at the moment with the older Firmware.
Any idea how to remove the crap apps they have pre-installed ?

Root and remove unneeded apk(s) and their corresponding odex files from /system/app using any root supported file browser like root explorer. Before doing this you might want to clear data. To cleanup left over odex files also remove from /data/dalvik-cache. You can cleanup this entire directory, but you would have to reboot for odex files to be re-created.

hi, I bought this phone two days back. I want to ask that if I follow your guide to remove some crap applications, and then if in future I do a factory reset, will it create any problem?

Hello
Has anybody figured out a way to root this latest firmware?

I couldn't figure out how to install that. The optimus prime post is not very clear about the steps.. it seems to be linking to other posts which aren't too clear themselves..

I am still on V10b, so do you guys strictly suggest not to upgrade to V10c?
Almost everything is fine for me with the current version, apart from one one strange problem..
The bulk SMS received do not get grouped properly. Bulk SMS 'from name' are usually in the format XX-XXXXX, now what happens is.. if the number of characters in the 'from name' of sms after '-' are same (whatever be the name), they are grouped together in the same thread.
This happens only with bulk sms which has name in above mentioned format, all other sms are grouped properly. Also, this happens in every sms application i have tried including the default one.
Hope i was able to explain it properly. Anyone else facing the same issue?

NDrive India Map Error

I had posted this issue earlier @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1145417 but since nobody came up with a satisfactory solution..I am reposting this issue here with a few changes.
Edit : I purchased my optimus one on 17 June. It came with stock firmware V10d (2.2.2). My problem is ...on launching the ndrive app, the place where i am supposed to select my preferred map (india,in my case) it loads for a few seconds and a prompt comes up saying 'This device isn't authorized to make this operation' . Recently I also found out this issue arose with one of my friends who purchased an optimus one after me. both of us had similar firmware. Thinking it might be a firmware issue ..(& on recommendation of some ppl in my earlier thread) I reverted back to original stock 2.2 (v10b) and 2.2.1(v10c) & even a custom rom (devoid froyo on which I manually installed ndrive,only in custom rom) but it didn't help me. Same prompt arises there too. On taking it to LG service centre they are clueless completely. Ndrive Support through email says ur device imei is registered with us but we don't know why r u facing such an issue:confused. LG customer care over phone says use some other navigation software now and wait for gingerbread update..it might solve this. But now reading all the bugs that r coming out in LG gingerbread. I think I won't be upgrading. Currently I am on v10e (latest firmware update) . I hav tried everything out there like factory resetting, firmware reflashing, update ndrive from android market but nothing worked. I used Ndrive app on my previous phone GT540 and loved it. Therefore I want it here too. So Indian Optimus owners ..pls help me out !!
I think the IND_NT.map is corrupt that why you are not able to activate. I think someone uploaded the indian maps file (IND_NT.map) here. Try that.
What I usually do, is flash roms, and install ndrive from market. Open ndrive and the maps are activated without any fuss.

[Q] What build number do you have in your stock Browser?

I'd be grateful if people on 10.4.2.17 or 10.4.2.18 could check and let me know if the full version numbers on their stock Browsers include the correct build number.
I am currently on 10.4.2.17 though my Browser version says 10.4.2.15 and I believe this may be responsible for my failures to update to 10.4.2.18. Just wan't to check that the build number went up for everyone's Browser with the .17 upgrade.
Many thanks.

Thanks. Thought so since all my other systems apps also say .17.
I do remember messing about with the browser after updating to .17 trying to get the damn sync with Google to work so what I think I've done is to restore the wrong version. Looks like this has been a big enough change to the system partition to stop the new update working :crying:.
So my next question is how and where do I get hold of the browser.apk from 10.4.2.17?

The odex file gets created from the apk. If you have a browser odex file then delete it and when you replace with the new browser.apk and restart it should create it.

OK, thanks. The new browser appears to be working just fine. I doubt it's the odex file since I have rebooted a few times. I will delete it though and see what happens.
Grrrr. No good - the droid's still going belly up after a minute or 2. But I am now getting a different error message. Instead of the Unknown Error I now get "The application is not compatible with the device ROM".
I've been right through /system and can't see anything else that would be out of place.
Is there anywhere in particular the update checks? I've tried factory reset and downloaded other copies of the update zip in case I got a bad one. Can you think of anything else I might try?

It is normally caused by something that has changed. Did you edit the build.prop? did you freeze any apps ? did you delete any apps ?

The only thing I can think of is if there is a separate Google Bookmarks Sync apk that came with the .17 ROM? I was using an older version of this. If so can you pull me one and I'll try that.
Also I had been using browser2RAM before the update but I uninstalled it properly before doing the OTA update. It hadn't stopped me updating before either.

Discovered how to extract the system apps from the blob file so found the syc apk (called ChromeBookmarksSyncAdapter) and got that working. While I was there I noticed that odex files were included in the ROM so installed the browser from there along with its odex but still the update failed :crying:.
I think now all I can do is go through the system.img from the .17 update and see if I can see anything different from what I have currently on the device.

why gps doesnt work? just keep on searching..

I had v10e stock. Worked good.
Then rooted to 10a and updated with a cwm backup 10h.
And gps didnt work.... not that i use it alot but yeah sucks.... something i need it.
So cwm backups arent that great. Is cool but yeah. Costum roms are better. Still waiting for one.
Re: why gps doesnr work? just keep on searching..
Maybe the app you are using is the problem. Remove it, reboot then reinstall.
If this didn't solve it, do a reset. This will solve all your problems but before doubt this, user the stock backup app to backup your settings,sms and calls, home screen widgets, pre installed apps to sd card. but don't backup your downloaded apps.

Nvm got it.
Just takes long. And did a tweak in pimp my rom for gps. And now finds location still late but 1min somthing it finds gps.

Ow sinds some one awsners. Euh im on v10h and when the ota update comes i can directly update to v20b i mean i wont need to download the last update and then v20.
Hope i get the ota update soon i live in france. (To lazy to use kdz thing)
Re: why gps doesnr work? just keep on searching..
So you are still using ics. Can you please extract the power control widget .apk from your rom? And send it to me? I lost it. Together with the .odex file.
If your can of course.
Off topic.

Thanks a lot friend, but it's not working, i don't know why.
/system/apps/bootup changed permissions and reboot = not working
/system/app = not working
thanks though
it must be some compatibility issue, after all, it's from ics to jb.
so for everyone reading this on JB, do you have this issue?

Help in rooting LG Optimus Exceed 2 VS450PP1

I just recently purchased a LG Optimus Exceed 2 VS450PP1 Verizon prepaid and I would like to root it, but I'm afraid to use the wrong guide to do so.
I have already done this part: Turn on USB debugging: Settings and enabled the installation of unknown sources.
It seems that Towelroot used to work but no longer does. Can someone post a link to the correct procedure for my phone or the instructions to do so? I already read did a search for my phone and read several pages, but I'm still unsure which procedure will work for my phone.
This is my phone info:
LG Optimus Exceed 2 VS450PP1
Build Number KOT49I,VS450PP1
Software version VS450PP1
Kenel version 3.4.0+
Solved. I used towelroot and Root Checker to my phone, and it is now rooted.
Could you drop the link you got towelroot from, i searched and there were a lot of sites that had it, and i would like to make sure it works

I sure will. Here is the site for towel root. Type this address on your phones browser, and then click on the upside down letter "Y". https://towelroot.com/
And here is a site that shows you what to do http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2795300
I did mine recently for a LG Optimus Exceed 2 VS450PP1, and it's been working great so far.
You may also want to download a file called VS450PP1_04.kdz here. I think this is a backup of the phone software, should it be necessary in the future. This file is not necessary to root your phone, so you save it on some other media than your phones memory. http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/lg-vs450pp-exceed-2-help-t2989811
Good luck.

You're welcome.
I believe the file called VS450PP1_04.kdz is a ROM image for the phone with all the original stuff that came with it. I have not use this image for anything myself, but I believe it can be used to restore the phone back to factory settings as a last resort should things go wrong. I would recommend that after rooting successfully, you install the app called Titanium Backup Pro and let it back up everything to an external usb memory card on the phone. This is probably the better and safer approach to restore something that you had removed and would like back.
You can also go to the google play store and download the latest google apps that you have deleted if so desired.
I should mention that I'm not an expert at this stuff, just a beginner, so my knowledge is limited to what I did to my phone . I only rooted my phone to be able to install apps like Titanium Backup Pro.
I hope this answered your question.

Super slow phone; Need help downgrading from 7.1.1

Hey Everyone!
Just like most other Z5C users, my phone is running terribly slow. I just "upgraded" to 7.1.1 a couple days ago in hopes that it would fix how laggy it is, but it's still the same performance issues. I'll be listening to music and all of a sudden it stops, I can't take pics with my camera, app icons take forever to show up on homescreen, everything I switch between cache reloads, etc. I'm done with it.
I want to downgrade to 7.0, since it was the last stable upgrade I can recall. (Unless there's another solution to improving my phone's performance)
However, I have no knowledge of how to downgrade. I'm a total noob. Many of the youtube videos I've found are of terrible quality or are difficult to understand or require that I have my phone rooted.
I'd prefer to leave my phone unrooted. I guess I just need a link to the correct resources I need and has all the steps, then I can figure it out from there. OR if there's a better route to kicking my phone into the shape it should be in.
PS. Got a screenshot attached to show my phone's performance. It's currently using 1.7GB and has 38MB of free memory.
Mine works fine, 7.1.1. In my experience, it performs the same as 7.0 and even sometimes suppresses 7.0.
You will need to download XperiFirm and Flashtool first.
You can follow this tut to create ftf from the files you download: http://www.xperiablog.net/2014/08/1...re-files-using-xperifirm-and-flashtool-guide/
Note that you do not need to decrypt files since XperiFirm does that for you. You just need to create bundle from those files.

Do a full clean install. Or try to flash a sound mod, maybe that can help.
