Yes and no. Do note that most roms run on ext4 and once you backed up, you can just do a recovery to restore everything. However the stock rom is on ext3 and you have to flash the backtoext3 zip to restore stock rom's backup.

How to download .kdz

Hey everyone, um this might be dumb question but how do u download these links:

csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/swdata/WEBSW/LGP990/AITADW/V20q_00/V20Q_00.kdz

I always get webpage unavailable always and I would like to ask how people got this downloaded.

Thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
Use another browser. I copied and pasted your link in firefox and it started downloading immediately.

EDIT: If LG somehow is blocking certain countries from accessing it, use a proxy or VPN from another country.

Finally got round to updating mine, had actually tried before via the LG update on my Windows 7 phone but each time it bricked it on the update so had to use smartflash to bring my phone back to life.

Got hold of an XP laptop yesterday and it all went smooth as silk and am finally on Gingerbread & have to say it all runs extremely smoothly and a lot faster, it's like the way it should have been out the box, don't think I'll have the need of any custom apps now such as Browsers and Launchers etc, stock apps running really well on my 2x now if only LG can fix their update tool so I can use my W7 to update to ICS once it is out.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
LG's update tool works fine on Windows 7, I've used it myself.
[LG Optimus 2x] The_Hawkster:
Very strange I'm on W7 64 bit, tried it four times since Gingerbread has been out for 2x and each time it would get to a certain percent through the update and an error message would come up saying the program had crashed which left my 2x stuck on the SW Update screen then plugged it into an XP laptop and updated without a hitch.

Seems like the update tool is buggy though and I wasn't the only one having problems, just glad to be on GB now.

In the most countries, there's the V20q firmware. V20r is just a replacement for the countries that didn't have V20q, so V20r is the same as V20q.

I simply downloaded latest release BIN_LGP990AT-00-V20q-EUR-XX-JAN-24-2012+0.zip and it updated latest release from LG OTA and then rooted device after that.

[LG Optimus 2x] atlac:
V20i version in INDIA

Yes. I have not observed any problems with signal in this update. I have checked all the applications like wifi, internet, GPS etc. All are working fine. I think, there is no major changes in V20i as compared to V20h with reference to UI,and they might fixed some internal problems (actually I am just expecting). A small observation is that the internet is switching very fast when you change 2G to 3G or no GPRS options, instead of booting or waiting for long time.
[LG Optimus 2x] wjr002:
So, PC Suite keeps telling me there is an update but then the update application says I have the latest version. 20h, which was installed about a week ago. I'm in Australia.

The list of latest versions from the app menu says 20f is the latest version for Australia.

I've changed locale to a few countries and the update rechecks but still says I'm on the latest.

With 20f listed as the latest but having updated to 20h I wonder if they pulled 20f for Australia.

V20i-bugs- going back to V20h -India

After 2 weeks of using stock rom V20i, I just going back to V20h as good stable version than V20i , I feel. The problems we (my self and my friend) faced are: like phone stuck after completion of call, phone will stop working or blank screen while working on phone, the only way is remove and insert the battery, signal dropping also, no good voice clarity,,,,,,,,,,,

Hence I think, if people who r using stock and are not updated to V20i, better stay with old version only (may V20h or other previous one) and wait for ICS update for near future (of course there is debate about ICS update for O2X).

Wats your android version ? Is it 2.3.4 ? Is there any change moving over to v20i from v20e ?

The LG update tool sucks imo. I had to go to the centre to get it fixed as I had way too many random reboots and crash. But that aside, will I be able to revert back to where I am in case I need to ?

I haven't rooted or anything like that but I will after I find some time as I don't want to risk bricking my phone. The risk is higher with O2x than any of my friend's phones so I try to be extra cautious. My only concern is that I want to be able to switch back to stock conditions if I want to.

Can I back up recovery, kernel, baseband, ROM along with the LGE version ? Will a nandroid backup do it ?

[LG Optimus 2x] Ximo F. Verde:
Ive been regurarly visiting the o2x forum since last july when i bought my phone. Since then i havent read of a single case of 'real' brick. Many here actually refer to the o2x as virtually unbrickable. I myself cannot even remotely calculate how many times ive flashed roms, kernels etc. You say that the o2x has a bigger risk to brick than your friends' phones. What do ur mates use? nokia 7110s? Please try to read a bit b4 making this sort of statements. Reverting back to stock condition is a pretty straightforward procedure, again, try to read a bit. Or you can live with the crappy lg stock roms.. its up to you

Update

First and formal hello to all of you.

I'm new to Android world so please bare with me. I recently purchased LG Optimus 2X which is running on V20l and I was hoping to get it update to newest version but for some reason i can't. When i try to do it over the phone i get message saying that I'm already running latest version but when I try it over LG Mobile Support Tool I get following message: "Web Update is not available for this latest version, Please update using your phone as below,

1) Select Menu -> Setting -> About Phone -> Software Update"...

Any idea what is wrong? I searched forum but came short.

Thanks. ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
V20L is the newest, most likely.
[LG Optimus 2x] SREEPRAJAY:
as the master (RUSTY) said, it might be the latest one for your region. The Version depends on a region. Like in India, we have V20i as the latest and in Europe it is V20S.

If you are looking at good performance, root the device and flash a BB suitable for your carrier, choose a custom ROM and a custom Kernel and enjoy. thats the magic word.

Hope it helps
[LG Optimus 2x] Gandaf:
Thanks both of you for fast response. One more question, is there a way to check which version is the latest without calling LG Support?
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
Replace the x's with your IMEI in this URL and it'll tell you the latest version:

[LG Optimus 2x] Gandaf:
I got a message saying that V20S_00 is the latest version.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
You can try using LG Updater and see if that updates it then, or you can just ignore it, it's not going to gain you much (if anything) really.
[LG Optimus 2x] Gandaf:
Like I said in my first post, when I try to update it over phone I get message "Current version is the latest version.", but when i try it over LG Mobile Support Tool i get message "Web Update is not available for this latest version...."

OK, I read somewhere that V20S_00 brings significant update to camera picture quality.
[LG Optimus 2x] Rusty!:
In that case you're gonna have to download the .kdz it offers you and flash that. You'll find a guide if you search.
