cool. I will try it. Anyway to get the Sense 3.0 mail.apk the same way?
[EVO 4G Android Development] kippswanson:
I'd love this. Any chance of un-allowing remote device wipe? I'd like to get my work email on my phone, but I'll be damned if I'm going to give them remote wipe ability on MY phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] adma84:
it's doable, but I don't have time to go through and find it though. Sorry!
[EVO 4G Android Development] kippswanson:
It's cool. Thanks for this. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ZombieReagan:
Your Exchange admins can run security scans to see if you're running a re-signed version of the app. So you have to ask yourself if it's worth risking whatever sort of reprimand you might get if you're caught. If you're that paranoid about getting remote wiped, then you should be equally paranoid about breaking security rules.
[EVO 4G Android Development] adma84:
You are not always breaking the rules. For example, my EAS server has a timeout of 60 minutes before pin needs to be re-entered. However, Android Email timeout is MUCH shorter. Also, I have never heard that EAS admin can check that. The signature doesn't even remain after you flash it...so that makes no sense.
[EVO 4G Android Development] awenthol:
I will give this a try, but just a heads up, I used to use a different (stock, not HTC) modified email without the security, and my companies IT locked me out of my account because it didn't have the required security.

Will report back if this is the same deal...
[EVO 4G Android Development] adma84:
wow! Well, as I stated in the first post, you do have to be careful and this is at your own risk! good luck!
[EVO 4G Android Development] awenthol:
Ran into some issues flashing (my fault) so won't get to mess with it today, yet.

I believe the android mail.apk I used was modified to trick the server into thinking the auto-lock was enabled when it wasn't. Don't remember at this point, but all I know is I got a day or two out of it before they blocked my phone :D

Eh, their loss...no email following me around :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G Android Development] adma84:
also, they do check User-Agents of email clients. If your corp. accepted touchdown for example, or HTC, but not stock android...it wouldn't matter if it was patched or not. But just a thought
[EVO 4G Android Development] adma84:
still looking from feedback from folks :) This will work on any version of MikG (or other Sense 2.1 based roms)
[EVO 4G Android Development] heldunder:
mind making one that will work with decks 2.3 rom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] adma84:
Did you try this one? It will probably work
[EVO 4G Android Development] heldunder:
doesnt work

sorry about how long that took me lol

(at work so i was doing work while flashing it lol)
[EVO 4G Android Development] adma84:
lol ok. If you give me the odex/apk I will think about it. don't have much time currently
[EVO 4G Android Development] heldunder:
i wouldn't know how to get any of that D:

if you cant do it it's fine I'll just take care of it some other time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] XGrzesiuX:
Can Someone make a Zip for Sense 3.0 rom please. I Included the Mail.apk... its from the VR Kingdom ROm...... thanks in advance.
[EVO 4G Android Development] atom_jack:
Tried it on Synergy RC2 and it works - doesn't say anything about security policies.

adma84, can you post instructions on how you patched it? I'd like to try to patch the original Mail.apk that came with Synergy. I'm guessing you used baksmali on classes.dex, right?
[LG Optimus Black] kzhus:

[LG Optimus Black] quyTam:
wrong post sorry
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
@rgabi

KDZU doesn't work ?

thanks kzhus. Yesterday spanish links were still invalid. The europe link is now fixed, the folder "10b_00" has a lower case... they are a bit strange at LG... well I'm going to play more with links and cases...
[LG Optimus Black] rgabi88:
You mean KDZ updater? I didn't try it ...yet. I am not sure that it works and I don't want to risk my phone.

Late edit:

I just flashed V10B_00 ANEUTL (european unbranded).

I was inspired by this tut: http://www.android-hilfe.de/anleitungen-fuer-lg-p970-black/106331-how-optimus-black-flashen-kdz.html

except steps 2, 3, 7, 8, 10

Instead of step 10 click on "Read phone information" and then on "Upgrade start".

Select Country -> Different country

Select Language -> English

Hit "OK"

LG Software phone update must launch and begin to update the software.

Stay back and wait for reboot!
[LG Optimus Black] PaY87:
Thanks flashed the latest european :cool:
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
I'm gonna flash mine too if the update doesn't suit to me.

Also, following your given url, there is a link which points to a list of firmwares here. This is just a copy of the first edit of my thread lol. It seems that I was the first to publish those links. If some of you speak german, you can discuss here.

Anyway, thanks Ilko for "V10B" firmware links.

Still no dedicated forum?? C'mon, guys!!
[LG Optimus Black] Ven84:
What are the differences between V10A and V10B?

Any changelogs?
[LG Optimus Black] rgabi88:
Untill now:

I have spotted one more app: RemoteCall

I think that is not as hot as before when I surf the net, use GPS or view YouTube, but I am not sure... too soon to tell
[LG Optimus Black] Ven84:
I have RemoteCall in V10A :)
[LG Optimus Black] rgabi88:
Maybe orange Romania removed RemoteCall because they don't provide this level of support... I don't know.....

No other differences spotted...

I can't tell for sure, but it seems to have a better battery life. After 13 h 22 ins, is at 86%.:)
[LG Optimus Black] Al3xxxinho:
Tell me ... If I unbrand my phone ( as far as I can see it has the lg firmware, not the orange one, although it was bought from orange ), and flash the latest firmware, can I later restore it to the original one in case of warranty issues? thanks in advance :)
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
Yeah I just wish to contribute :)

I've seen that link, but didn't get... what should I understand ?

Also, unfortunately I can't perform a flash with kdzu. When I try to read info it crashes :(
[LG Optimus Black] back0ne:
My P970 does not work - turned into a paperweight

Translation by tradukka. (rsrs)

1 - when I turn the phone into the computer by holding the volume + PC finds the phone does not appear over the screen "S/W upgrade please wait while upgrading"

2 - Even so did the upgrade process and it happened as expected, giving dll error until the phone restarts.

He changed the boot screen (VIVO) by LG screen. the problem is it takes the LG logo and then flashes the screen and the buttons and does not enter the android.

please need help, because now I have a paper weight $ 500 :D .

I also have a SE X10 and X8, and none of them gave me trouble. This LG is complicated.
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
well, I'dlike to help, but I'm not a dev, only a contributor who wanted to make things fowarding with this thread.

Also, to get the s/w screen, you must pull out the battery, then hold V+, then plug the cable. It must work. Try flashing to a stock firmware, that's the only thing which I can advise you.
[LG Optimus Black] rgabi88:
When I'll arrive at home, I will write a step by step guide from A to Z.
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
hmm? I wanted to write my own guide too, but if kdzu cant read phone info I dont wanna risk to flash, even if it should work anyway.
[LG Optimus Black] rgabi88:

[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
check usb debugging status
[LG Optimus Black] valakinaki:
usb debugging enabled - according to the status bar
[LG Optimus Black] tito8486:
Thank you for the responces.

I removed the SDC and the SIM chip and after several tries I was able to boot up and do a factory reset.. The phone worked without SIM,I can start WIFI and browse, get on SKYPE and download. As soon as I insert the SIM it buts up and locks on initial screen.(Slide up to unlock). It does not recive calls nor start the camera ussing the G and shake methode.

I am at a complete LOST.. I love the phone when it was working..

Is there a way to do an internal scan.. there has to be some bug or something.
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
Shell Root Process

hmm maybe you don't have proper drivers. Try downloading those wich B2C listes for you (support > download drivers)

Also, sometimes you'll need to reboot your PC for detecting the phone.

So, since SOC has never worked for me, I'm turning on you guys, I need someone for tests purpose. I've compiled an exe file for rooting 10C+ versions (Windows). This is the shell method based on xantaro's description.

File is called "Shell Root Process" (SRP)

You'll also need SOC 1.9.5

- Ensure USB debugging in ON and SDC is unmounted

- Run SOC and do a shell root

- Launch SRP

Edit : I removed the file for the moment. I made a mistake and will give news later
[LG Optimus Black] frastgr:
can you tell us details step by step how to use the files you posted before?

thanks
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
sorry, added the link to the related post.

so, you won't need to follow all steps, but the SOC execution. Rest is done by my exe.

> here it is

you can also refer to the main post

edit: I've just successfully updated my phone to 10C. I'll try of my side
[LG Optimus Black] valakinaki:
Drivers are downloaded w b2c ive tried two versions af that.

Thanks for your effort!
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
did you do a factory reset ?
[LG Optimus Black] DJTaurus:
In the root when i type cat /tmp/su > /system/bin/su

It says

cannot create /system/bin/su: read- only file system

Any help?
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
that means the system is not mounted for writing, meaning it's not rooted. Otherwise you missed something in the process. Also, check if you have enough space (I don't think that could be the problem).

Yesterday I managed to root mine on 10C.
[LG Optimus Black] back0ne:
How did you get out of bootloop???
[LG Optimus Black] shreyas99:
This might be a little off topic, but I just wanted to know what is the 11C firmware that is available in France ? Is it the Gingerbread update ? or just another Froyo update ? Is there any place where I can find the changelogs for the different firmware versions ?
[LG Optimus Black] garzacorporations:
It's another froyo update.

Root method only works until v10d included.
[LG Optimus Black] antonio1475:
Nope, I rooted several times my v11B easily with Gingerbreak. Can't tell about the other 11's.

:)
[LG Optimus Black] garzacorporations:
I tried with v10e but it did not worked.
[LG Optimus Black] radkor:
[bump]

Yea, could you write how? I've got this problem too...
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
try 10C+ method
[LG Optimus Black] shreyas99:
Are there any major changes in the 11b / 11c versions ? Im on 10b right now. Whats the best update to flash ?
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
I don't really know, I switched from 10A directly to 10C via B2C. Until now, I wasn't able to manually flash in any way for an unknown reason. So I expected that. What I can say is that C is smoother but more responsive and seems to have lower battery consumption. I was experiencing some touch and reactivity issues. Also, firefox was very slow, was freezing, sometimes I had to kill its process. Now I use dolphin browser wich much better so far.
[LG Optimus Black] shreyas99:
So do u suggest a 10C or 11C flash ? Any place where I can find the changelog ?
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
well you may know if you contact LG or if a dev may know too. But, following a logical update process, 11C should be the most probable choice. Think that you may get errors or simply brick your phone with root attempts or something else, because systems differ from earliest to newest.
[LG Optimus Black] shreyas99:
Aah. That does make sense. I think I'll give 11b a shot. I heard its rootable as well, right? That shouldn't be a problem. I haven't heard much about 11c, though I do have the firmware file...

I'll keep u posted in case I get some info, and my experience with th3 flashing!
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
yeah and if there are people who have rooted 10D+ they might let us know
[LG Optimus Black] antonio1475:
Yeah, as I said, I rooted 11B several times with Gingerbreak.

:)
[LG Optimus Black] shreyas99:
Alright then. I'm going the 11b way tonight... (fingers crossed)
[LG Optimus Black] venomcorp:
I am with v11c and cant rooted my OB.....i do evrething..my phone is restarting but...no..no root.
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
I'll update the thread soon with a new UPK and some improvements. I'm working to make every steps the most easy as possible. Just keep in mind that I'm not a dev and couldn't help much. But I have some skills to spend to NSIS and make life more cool :D

so I need someone for testing my shell root process (SRP) file related to xantaro's method with superoneclick (Refer to the main post).

This is the last thing before I may update the thread.

(phone should be unrooted for the test)

- Shell Root Process.exe

- SuperOnceClick 2.1.1

- USB debugging ON

- Plug phone, launch SOC, select psneuter Exploit, do a shell root

- It should stuck at step #4, then kill SOC process

- Launch SRP

> If the process works, launch root checker

I rooted my 10C with this method (but I entered all cmds manually)

PLZ HELP!!!!
[LG Optimus Black] antonio1475:
Try flashing a higher firmware.

You won't be able to flash a lower firmware. If you have 11C, you must flash 11C at least.

;)
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
antonio, did you test gingerbreak on other devices with 11B version ?
[LG Optimus Black] antonio1475:
Sorry, what? On other devices with 11B? :confused:

:)
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
where is the misunderstanding ?
[LG Optimus Black] antonio1475:
Yeah, I rooted my 11B with Gingerbreak, but your question was if I had tested it on other devices with 11B. There is the misunderstanding. I rooted my 11B several times. Period.

:)
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
okay but then, I'm asking you if you had ever the opportunity to test gingerbreak on any other device with 11B version than your own. There shouldn't be a misunderstanding lol
[LG Optimus Black] antonio1475:
heh, OK. Nope, I know nobody near me with a LG Black.

[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
okay. On my side I'm now able to flash my phone (I was renaming kdz files :o). Sooooo, now my system turns on 10E. I also managed to root it. I'll update the thread again since my "SRP" should work well.

and how do i get into s/w upgrade mode? cuz when i tried volume up and plug the usb cable while holding the volume up nothing happend, but when i do the same thing but with volume down on the screen apeard a picture wich shows to put the battery
[LG Optimus Black] antonio1475:
Volume up key works, right? What exactly does it mean "nothing happened"?

Without battery, pressing volume up and connecting usb to computer, should get into SW upgrade.

If not:

a) Volume up key doesn't work

B) The phone is totally bricked

:)
[LG Optimus Black] sonic1995:
it works cuz when i watch a move last time i modified the volume and both works, and then i get in market my phone has closed and when i start it up was bricked

HI guys.

just got an lg optimus black and its branded Tim Italy. the cell accepts all sims but has a stupid firmware of its own, plus cant be upgraded.

When i am trying to upgrade it with the first method on 1st post, it says that no phone is found.

Any ideas what to do?? thanx
[LG Optimus Black] antonio1475:
Why is it "not for sale"¿?¿? :confused::eek::rolleyes:
[LG Optimus Black] shreyas99:
Alright. I was on 10b. I have tried 11c and 11b. None worked. And downloading 10c now. Have issues with downloads from filesonic. Any other place where I can download the firmwares from? I needed the 11e Europe open and 11d geece if possible.

Having crashed on 10b, and tried lg recovery, which im figuring flashed 10b again, what firmware do u suggest to flash? Is there no firmware that does a factory reset as well? I remember my moto had 2 different version, one service and one non service. One did a reset, the other did not. Summin similar for LG ?
[LG Optimus Black] MauricioAedo:
Thank you very much!

This is very useful
[LG Optimus Black] shreyas99:
I just couldn't get the phone to boot ! Tried everything !

Finally took it to the LG Service Center. He tried flashing the firmware as well. As expected, it did not work. Although I got some trivia off him.

Apparently, as soon as the lg logo appears, the phone boots into network mode, allowing network access and there is .fls file that does a quick check on the required apk's. Since in my case, the lghome.apk was missing, the phone never went past that check and ended in a boot-loop.

He mentioned that that only to way to resolve this was to get the hardware replaced. Either the chip-set or the phone itself.

Its in the store anyway, and will be back in 2 weeks.

So for everyone looking for deleting the lghome.apk, or searching for a solution, THERE IS NONE !

Please be careful while attempting to use Titanium and deleting preloaded apps. This has serious consequences.

(I did do a recovery and send it. So its under warranty and did not charge me... :))
[LG Optimus Black] maludroid:
rgabi88!

After 2 hours I found that there needs to be capital letter in filename, thus from your example that would be V10B_00.kdz. Otherwise flashing didn't work for me.

GPS FIX FOR ROOTED DEVICES:

guys please put this app in the first post (it is reported in the nova rom thread but i think it could be useful to post it in this thread too): (CLICK HERE) it works very well, no need of files-guides etc, just this.

It requires root access and it is free.
[LG Optimus Black] radkor:
It's sick that LG can't flash their phones... The can produce phones, but they can't service them... Their only solution for everything is to change main PCB...

Maybe not all services have special tool that you can see on the attached image. It's from P990 service manual. Maybe it's the solution for full flash.

It's called PIF-100.
