Christmas update.

this is certainly my last update since gingerbread is coming. I spend all of my weekend time to it. when something goes wrong with NSIS it can be creazy to solve these ****s.

well, if you guys don't need to unroot or don't use Apps, just ignore it. see main post for details.

Mery Christmas to all

EDIT : last min change ! just a little code optimisation to blackjack and apps (welcome page option) and reworked wizard for the upk package
[LG Optimus Black] dpockets:
Hey guys i need help...

I am from india and here all most all filesharing sites are banned and i cant download upk setup pls ilko can u attach file here or can give some kind of a direct link
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
sending to mediafire, is it okay ?

I'm going to put links

here: UPK 3.6 | Apps 1.8
[LG Optimus Black] dpockets:
Our dumb indian telecom department banned all file sharing sites like megaupload, mediafire, rspidshare. Total retards...... so would appreciate if u attach it here or some kind a direct download link(i dont know what site to upload on now)....:-(:mad:
[LG Optimus Black] agent205:
No sharing sites?

Damn,that's sucks

Box.com ?

Sent from my heart into yours
[LG Optimus Black] dpockets:
Aaah box.com is working..... i can download from there pls upload there..
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
eh yeah that sucks a lot... I already tryed box.com, but closed my account 5 mins later. The free version is too restricted.

man, is there no any indian sharing service ? You could use a proxy, or VPN...
[LG Optimus Black] dpockets:
Here is the List of Blocked Sites…

- Rapidshare.com

- Megaupload.com

- Mediafire.com

- Hotfile.com

- Fileserve.com

[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
nice, but.. holy ****, why are they all banned ?
[LG Optimus Black] officialreloaded:
To prevent the copyright infringement... as if we have nothing to share open source or personal stuff over there.. :eek:

But strangely, it's not a government ban. It's a few ISPs who have blocked the domain; while majority ISPs like i 've been using have not put any restrictions.

But anyways, proxy websites can do the job for any ban easily.. :D

Hi Guys,

so let's say I am from Czech rep, and I have Branded phone with firmware V10D (TMC/T-MOBILE(CZECH REPUBLIC) is it OK to go to Czech republic let's say V10I and what is the difference among this firmwares as there is listed more than one for CZR. Thanks for reply.
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
only differences are branding. you should take the most recent for now, so 10I which seems unbranded.
[LG Optimus Black] wellfleet:
Thank you for answer :) btw when I´ll install the un-branded this probably will lead to loose the warranty, right?
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
I don't think so, only rooting cancels warranty. a clean flash is well, clean...

If you wanna keep the link, feel free to take it :)
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
****... it's not only links, I've just seen that megaupload got closed by FBI. I need to completly reorganize sharings.

do you know a service like MU which provides download stats ? and free...?
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Sorry dont know bout that, but use my link as temporary solution ;-)
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
no problem, I had a mediafire link for emergency case :)

look at that http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2012/01/19/feds-shut-down-file-sharing-website

[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
yes, same here, so it's not the good moment to brick your phone.... :O it seems b2c has been updated.

so, boot in s/w mode then try the emergency recovery via b2c. If it fails, last chance will be smartflash

Well for me R&D Test Tool still works. I simply extracted the KDZ file, took the .dll that was unpacked, chose it in

Select model dll

Then select KDZ file, start upgrade, close B2C App, wait till it starts flashing and reboots, and you're done ;)

I can provide the dll, if you need it :)

[LG Optimus Black] sikodemon:
:mad:Man!!! Just when I decide to get rid of all the tmobile bloat on my phone you're telling me that LG have updated the B2C tool so I can't flash a custom rom??

Is there no way to get hold of an older version of B2Ctool or some other work around as I'm just getting LG updater when trying to flash a stock rom.

:mad:
[LG Optimus Black] sikodemon:
This is silly, I can't find anyway to debrand my p970. Does anyone here have a workaround to do this, all I want to do is put a stock un-branded rom on the phone but that seems to be an impossible task at the moment. :(

how do i root using blackjack ? any advice?
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Does reading hurt much?

Method 2 - All FW but Gingerbread (V20X)

- USB Debugging ON

- Launch BlackJack and follow instructions

> Allow 127.0.0.1 connection if prompted by AVs / Firewalls. Read BlackJack's intro for more details.

If you have no clue of how to do it, keep your fingers away from root.

Better keep on reading and try to find out in ONE of the MANY tuts here...

[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
The easiest way, if you only wanna root it for the sake of installing a custom ROM, which I think is of your interest, will be to install v10c or something similar low, with smartflash or R&D tool, and then root it and do whatever you want ;) Why make it hard, if there also is an easy way ;)
[LG Optimus Black] shourov:
thnx mate..m gonna try that now cuz i have used many other rom previously and it used to be buggy so i got back to the original rom and updatedd it to some ****ty version..

and also i am not able to change firmware using r&d and kdz updater!!m really dissapointed at lg...b4 these two methods used to work!!:@

what's the meaning of "

All FW but GB

" .. mine is OB GB 2.3.5 v20B .. . will i be able to root mine using BlackJack?

note : i know the other methods of rooting v20b so dont answer that there's a thread in rooting v20* and i know where it is .. . all i want to know is what's the meaning of those underlined words .. . and if i can use blackjack to root my OB 2.3.5 v20b :)

thank you!
[LG Optimus Black] re4lsk:
It means it will root all froyo firmwares but it won't root gingerbread firmwares

Trolling in the deep
[LG Optimus Black] JastaPein:
thank you sir.. .so that means it wont root my OB 2.3.5 v20b?

but i doesnt make any sense to me that it will only root all froyo firmwares even if the title says "Method 2 - All FW but Gingerbread (V20X)" or i didnt get the title :confused: haha!
[LG Optimus Black] re4lsk:
that is the correct grammar for the sentence. it means it works an all FW except v20x(GB) X means any other alphabet ltter.
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
yes, you didn't get the title. it says what it says, meaning all froyo fw (V10X) will be rooted, except gingerbread, which are V20X

a sentence which comprises "something except another thing" is also written like "something but another thing".

you've just learned a bit more about english :)

hmm you must know that these patched FWs (20N and 20O as well) came out from SnegovikRZN. I actually use the 20N patched version and not tried the 20O patched yet.

Did you do a reset after having flashed ?

@shourov everything is okay on my side, you've got problem :E

With patched V20n or V20o but i am care they are DEU region (did they have English language?)

Help me what to do?!

I am confused... :(

thx

---------- Post added at 05:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:03 AM ----------

To demant myself.

I flashed V20o (DEU) patched and all goes fine. After flash went to CWM, do wipe/reset and install Superuser from mSD and then reboot.

Yeah, phone went to system on Serbian :) but... always some but...

When i try to install SetCPU.apk, phone momentally reboot and also with any .apk !!!

What to do?!?!?!?

thx

---------- Post added at 06:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:53 AM ----------

After firs booting, do, again, factory reset from phone directly and reboot and after that, all aps installing corectly!

some apps in Apps 1.9 could be updated, that's all.

Hi, 2.3.4 is not possible to root it as Froyonál Blackjack with or somehow just could not root, without recovery. I thought that the SmartFalshTools process the BIN file into the recovery be like?
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
blackjack is not able to root gingerbread firmwares. you have to use method 3. I didn't understand your sentence well, but when you use smartflash for rooting, it will reboot into recovery, then you'll have to do a wipe of datas, then flash the superuser archive before rebooting to complete root process. just follow guide
[LG Optimus Black] bubus44:
Úgy szeretném,hogy recovery nélkül tudnám csak root csínálni. Mert nincs szükségem nagyon recoveryre Bocs gyenge Angol tudásért Csak simán recovery nélkül szeretnék root jogot szerezni. Azért kérdeztem nem-e lehet ne valahogyan beleteni csak a root-ot . A SmasrtFalshTools tudom mert csínálta hozzá Romokat, és azokba hogyan tudnék appokat beletenni a BIN fájlba?

I want to root only I could do without recovery. Because I do not need a recovery very sorry for poor English for knowledge without just want to smooth recovery to gain root access. They asked not to be in some way not only into the root was reported. The SmasrtFalshTools because I did it to ruins, and may be appokat how can I put in the BIN file?
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
hmmm :E sorry man it's hard to understand what you want exactly. It's impossible to put bin files into the recovery. if you want easy root, you have to flash back a froyo firmware
[LG Optimus Black] NunoMCB:
Hello! Nice tutorials here!

But, I still have a question!

The thing is. I'm still in an old froyo based rom and I need to go up to a gingerbread one. But lately I'm facing some problems with the phone, wich I think are due to hardware problems. So before I upgrade I want to go back to the original firmware, wich is V10A. I used to do it with B2C but it seem that this tool is not good anymore for that.

So, the thing is. My phone is not bricked, but can I use smartflash to do this downgrade? It will do a factory reset to the phone, making it back to the original rom and unrooted, isn't it? Then if I need I can send it to Lg for warranty.

Well, more than one question :) But I hope someone could help me!

Thank you in advance :)
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
hi

yeah you got it all :) now it's very easy to flash via smartflash, because with this tool you can get needed binaries of the fw of your choice. downgrade and upgrade as your wants...
[LG Optimus Black] NunoMCB:
Yeah. I tought so. Just to make sure from an expert. :) Thank you Ilko!

[LG Optimus Black] ErnuB:
Try installing the rom again, this time before you do it do a factory reset, since the rom has a different base than the one you had before the date is not compatible
[LG Optimus Black] karthik_sa2:
Thanks very much for the reply dude.. ya i have already done that twice..wiped all the cache..did a complete factory reset yet it doesnt work.. but i did the reset thru CWM recovery mode.. does that work? or should i do a normal factory reset from the phone itself?
[LG Optimus Black] Ilko:
it's better to do it through CWM > wipe/reset then wipe dalvik

if that doesn't solve your issue, you probably got corruption somewhere. download the ROM again, be sure there won't be any connexion lost, then reinstall the ROM. If problem remains, try a gingerbread base. you'll have to use smartflash (rooting method 3)

ps: 500th post, yay !
