Great guide man it worked like a charm :) idk if i had to but i installed the omap flash installer also. Also after everything i edited the flex file and apn and everything seems to be working great. Ill report back once i get a day or do with it.
[LG Thrill 4G] thatruth132:
been using for 2 days its not a way better battery experience but a very stable and clean GB for thrill
[LG Thrill 4G] civi309:
So, everybody confirm that Thrill p925 can upgrade to 2.3.5 leak as instruction? Sorry for noob question, cuz i have just bought it one day. And in my country Vietnam, there is no way to get warranty or replacement. But i kinda want to be on 2.3.5 ^^
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
If your phone is rooted and has CWM recovery installed, then yes it will work.
[LG Thrill 4G] saint357:
How do I check if my phone is rooted? (I'm sorry I recently started looking into this)
[LG Thrill 4G] AeRo0:
Did you use superoneclick to root it? And do you have cwm? If you do odds are your rooted! Btw I'm loving GB super fast and smooth. I'm using coh'a lite rom instead of the Acura one the only problem I have with it is that Swype keeps force closing so I had to install some other swipe keyboard from the market, but its not a bad tradeoff :)
[LG Thrill 4G] civi309:
How about 3g signal? My country only has 3G with 1900 mhz. Now i am very exited. Downloading has almost done ^^
[LG Thrill 4G] saint357:
i have been having trouble with step 16

can you clarify on what i have to do for the step with lg flash tools and were to find the correct files
[LG Thrill 4G] Tyqar:
If I update the baseband and use this method to flash an O3D GB rom and dislike it, will I be able to use a nandroid backup to go back to a useable state?

tl;dr - Will a nandroid restore reverse the baseband change?
[LG Thrill 4G] thatruthiz:
no i think you will still need to flash froyo baseband
[LG Thrill 4G] civi309:
Yeah i also think that. But it looks hard to find froyo baseband for P925?

We should use XP to flash bootloader rather than win7, shouldn't we?
[LG Thrill 4G] Tyqar:
Confirmed.
[LG Thrill 4G] californiarailroader:
Is HSPA+ (aka Faux G) working on this here in the US?
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
Files are located at the bottom of the first post. For the LG Flash tool, extract that .exe file and use it to run the flash tool.
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
At the moment there is no Thrill froyo baseband. You can use the O3D baseband to restore froyo baseband which worked perfectly for me when I tried.
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
I used XP and it looks like others trying with win7 are having problems. If you have access to a computer with XP, that's the way to go.
[LG Thrill 4G] civi309:
It needs OMAP driver rite? Driver is not in LG Android driver. I found that cuz i cannot found the driver in that folder.
[LG Thrill 4G] thatruthiz:
did you look in c:/lg/lgflashtool i thnk

---------- Post added at 02:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:43 AM ----------

or C:\Program Files\LG Electronics

another easy way is thru the device manager on your pc XP ....use the update driver option and when you select "select from specific location" then "dont search i will choose" sometime it will be right there
[LG Thrill 4G] Demonface:
I have a couple questions about this.

1). Does everything work on it ?

2). If / when an official update gets released would I be able to update easily without a problem or would I have to wait for a custom rom ?

3). If a new firmware gets released would i be able to use the same baseband or would i have to put back the default one ?

BTW the only reason im asking these questions is because this is the first android device i had and i kinda don't wanna brick it .
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
Mine installed without having to install the OMAP driver.
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
1. Everything works perfectly.

2. I don't know that answer, but as long as your playing around with custom Roms, someone will create something better than stock.

3. I brick my phone all the time, that's the fun of playing around and not being stock. There isn't too much that can't be reversed. Currently you will not be able to go back to completely stock Thrill after flashing the GB baseband because the stock froyo baseband isn't available.
[LG Thrill 4G] civi309:
I totally agree with your 3rd point. Now i am on gingerbread already, thanks for your guide. I have found some point that clarify your process:

1. Phone must be recognized all drivers when it is on. If not, it will have some problems afterward (cannot install LG CDMA... driver correctly).

2. If you remove battery, and press vol up + plug cable in, it will ask for TI OMAP driver only (in my case), and it looks like in connect-disconnect usb loop.

3. If you keep battery, and press vol up + plug cable, it will ask for LG CDMA driver (We need this work and change port to 41).

If you dont need TI OMAP driver to install successful, it means that we do not need this, i think. May be we do it, just because wan to be safe with full of recognized drivers?

BTW, what rom are you using now? Any tweak you have?
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
Currently, I'm running the V2 AcuraTeam Rom. I love it. I installed the FM Radio and it works perfectly also. I am actually getting ready to run the COH Rom to give it a spin.
[LG Thrill 4G] Demonface:
Thanks for the quick reply. :)
[LG Thrill 4G] civi309:
You should change to COH. It's so fast and has more free ram. I was on AcuraTeam rom, then switched to COH. Now i am happy with this
[LG Thrill 4G] elfie:
thanks for the detailed instructions.

worked like charm. Used win 7 64 bit. Just a few comments

1 Use admin for installing all drivers and flashtool, and while running flashtool.

2 on first boot up (before installing ginger bread), IMEI was unknown, but GB solved it. I think it's just how froyo and GB handle IMEI

3 could not install drivers for OMAP but did not have issues.
[LG Thrill 4G] shigga:
i followed all the directions exactly in the first post while flashing I get to 52seconds and it says failed

ERROR WM PROGRESS MSG.

Any ideas? The phone boots but I get no signal it just says reorganizing internal processes when I check my apn.
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
If you can get on wi-fi, download Apn Backup Restore from the market. You will also need to download a file explorer like esfileexplorer. Create a folder on your internal sd card called ApnBackupRestore and place the .xml file, from the zip below, in that folder. Run the app and delete apn's and then restore the one from the zip. I think this worked for me when I got that error before. Let me know.
[LG Thrill 4G] shigga:
Tried that still get the message. Do I need a new radio?
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
Not sure, when I got that error, removing the euro apns and adding the att one worked for me. The only other thing I can suggest is using the return to stock guide and get back to stock or retry the baseband procedure again.
[LG Thrill 4G] :
If you are trying to install GB and can't install it on your phone. I will trade you.

I just picked up this BNIB LG Thrill yesterday and after installing GB I can't go back. If you want, we can trade phones and you get GB and I get stock phone :)

Return to stock.
[LG Thrill 4G] CallMeAria:
He means the stock baseband. Can't revert that after flashing the GB baseband. There is currently no available way to obtain the Thrill baseband.
[LG Thrill 4G] :
Thank you but...

I have already tried that. It does not install radio so that doesn't fix my issue. :(

---------- Post added at 02:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:34 PM ----------

It's more like Optimus 3D baseband/radio than GB Baseband. If it was GB baseband, it should work with stock Froyo rom, right?

I get no reception at all after installing stock Froyo :(
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
It worked for me. I've gone back and forth a couple times. Always remember to add apn and reboot phone. And don't forget to enable data. I know that sounds stupid but I've forgotten and wracked my brain trying to figure it out.
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
It's more like Optimus 3D baseband/radio than GB Baseband. If it was GB baseband, it should work with stock Froyo rom, right?

I get no reception at all after installing stock Froyo :([/QUOTE]

Stock froyo rom needs froyo baseband. The O3D froyo baseband works fine with stock froyo Thrill.
[LG Thrill 4G] :
I've read that using O3D Froyo Baseband kills your 4G, so you are stuck with just 3G?

If everything is working for you, can you please post which Baseband you installed to make stock Froyo work? I just want to go back to stock stock and not worry about all this.

Thank you.
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
I wouldn't know whether or not it killed my 4G since I don't live in a 4G area, but my download speeds are still over 5Mb per second. And I believe I used the V10k file.

Thanks for the link, you mean this one:

[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
Yep, that's the one.
[LG Thrill 4G] :
So install that file using the LG Software and then install stock LG Thrill software using cwm recovery?
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
After you install that kdz file, you will have to root and add CWM just like you did to start all of this. After you have those back on the phone, then install stock LG Thrill software through CWM.
[LG Thrill 4G] :
Which driver am I supposed to install for 1-b?

What's the easiest way to use that kdz file to go back to stock?

Sorry for so many questions but I can't install drivers and then can't go to the next step :(

I have done so much on Android but can't even follow that post :(
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
Change the country on the update tool to United Kingdom and then double click on LGP920. This should install drivers for your phone. I'm actually trying to do this right along with you, but I'm at work and I don't have administrative rights so I'm not sure how far I will get. Just waiting for the kdz file to download.

Yeah, I can't do it from work.
[LG Thrill 4G] :
Install msxml.msi (Right click on file and select Install)

Where is that file?

And then where is this:

Start "UpTestEX_mod2_marwin.exe", select your KDZ file.

Set emeregency, 3gQCT as pictured and press "NORMALL WEB UPGRADE TEST"

Nevermind, found them.

They were in the first link.
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
Inside of the first zip you downloaded: KDZ_FW_UPD_EN
[LG Thrill 4G] :
Thanks dude. It's updating right now.

I wish we could go back to Thrill stock stock but as long as it's close, I am happy.

I am sure someone will come up with a way to restore it back to factory soon before we get GB, if we ever get GB. lol
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
Probably ICS before Gingerbread :confused:
[LG Thrill 4G] :
If they don't even support the device, how will they release future upgrades?
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
Yeah, it's a joke. But at least there are still great devs here working there ass off to help us out. I know nothing about this stuff, I just read and experiment and figure stuff out.
[LG Thrill 4G] :
It's a shame because it's a very beautiful device with lots of potential. Oh well, I guess we'll wait for someone to make a rom with higher resolution. My complaint with GB rom was that everything was big in it. I felt like I am using a phone for handicap people! LOL
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
You could always change your DPI settings, but then you get problems with installing some apps from the market.
[LG Thrill 4G] CallMeAria:
Support rests on ATT. Its up to ATT to upgrade the firmware.
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
Just an update, I've been able to go back and forth between Froyo and Gingerbread with no problems. I've got the process down to about 10 minutes. Most of the time is restoring my backups.
[LG Thrill 4G] CallMeAria:
Just out of curiosity and completely off topic but did the gingerbread rom have the same LG lockscreen as the Froyo Thrill?
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
Yep!
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
@CallMeAria

Another off topic, sort of, question for you. I noticed when using your trick on enabling H+ on the O3D rom, for the Gingerbread rom, it works but when I try to open my contacts it says AAB initializing and I have nothing. I noticed on my froyo rom while deleting some stock apps I got that same error when I removed the ATT_WSsyncmlDS.apk and when I put it back it worked fine. Now I've tried pulling this app from the Stock Thrill Rom and placing it in the system apps folder of Gingerbread and of course it won't work. I'm not a dev so I have no idea on how to make it work. Any ideas? I think if we can get that .apk installed on the Gingerbread we will have the H+ icon and contacts working. Just a thought.
[LG Thrill 4G] CallMeAria:
Sent you a pm about your question.

In the mean time, so you're saying you get H+ speeds with the O3D GB baseband?
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
I'm not even sure what H+ speeds are. I can get about 5.5Mb/s on a good day.
[LG Thrill 4G] thegregulator:
I'm on my phone so I can't search. I have a p925g (from Rogers in Canada). I can never get any signal when I flash a gingerbread Rom. What baseband are you using to get signal in the States? Thanks!

After some research, I'll have it done.
[LG Thrill 4G] shigga:
So I flashed the kdz file to get back now I'm only getting edge speeds. What do I need to get back my 3g?
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
Flash the Stock Froyo Thrill .fls file from the first post just like you did when flashing the Gingerbread .fls file. Then just install a Froyo Thrill rom and you should be back.
[LG Thrill 4G] jznomoney:
I installed the radio so I can install the o3d gb. It connects to the network at edge speed but if I do #*#*4636#*#* and change it to wcdma only it won't connect to 3g. Am I doing something wrong? I have at&t. Is there anything else you need to do to get 3g to work? Baseband version is L6260_MODEM_SIC_01.1042.00
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
Here is a video of how to flash your baseband. In this video I am flashing back to Stock Thrill Froyo baseband. Remember to take out your battery, sim card, and sd card for all of this.

http://youtu.be/ExwoHC5pOiQ

Follow step by step guideline in first post.

Files you will need http://www.mediafire.com/?c2i2f4c9sz8u8z2

Just extract these files to a folder on your desktop and follow along with video and instructions in the first post.
[LG Thrill 4G] CallMeAria:
Did you check the apn settings?

Might possibly need to edit the flex.xml file to pick up att 3g. /system/etc/flex.xml.
[LG Thrill 4G] jznomoney:
What needs to be added? I only saw about flex.db. I really haven't seen a guide on how to optimize the o3d radio for at&t network.
[LG Thrill 4G] bzlmnop:
Perhaps someone who has succeeded in doing so should make one... i would like to try an unofficial GB O3D rom like CM7 or something but i cant seem to find a simplified and detailed HOW TO, that is easy to understand and gives instructions from start to finish, including network configs n stuff, and lists what works and what doesnt work... i would figure it out and do it but at the moment am far to busy trying to finish up my geology degree.
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
Those having troubles with getting 3G speeds and such, which Roms are you running? I have AcuraTeam Ginger Euro installed and all I did was edit the flex1.db file to increase the hsdpa setting to 14. I have the H signal, which goes in and out of 3G and H at times, and my download speeds are excellent. I don't know much about the frequencies these run on, but from where I am, near Lake Tahoe, NV, which does not have 4G, everything seems to work perfectly. Another option is changing the settings in your flex.xml file, this gives you the AT&T branding, H+, and 5 bar signal icon, but you will have force closes on some things and your contacts app will not work (keeps saying AAB initializing).

For instructions on editing your flex.xml file look here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1293947

For editing your flex1.db file, you will need to download SQLite editor. This is a paid app from the market. Google it. Instructions on editing this file can be found here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=19392867&postcount=44
[LG Thrill 4G] CallMeAria:
Out of curiousity, does the GB baseband NEED to be flashed first? I couldn't get around to flashing the baseband today but tried flashing a couple GB roms. Both just sit at the LG screen. I'm thinking its just the baseband needs to be flashed first but wanted to ask from someone who's done the procedure.
[LG Thrill 4G] kingfisher1111:
I also did the *#*#*4636#*#* and change it to USA band it says setting to USA band unsuccessful..
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
When I first started all of this, I installed the Rom first and it hung on the LG logo also. Then I flashed the baseband and it booted. I haven't had any problems when installing the AcuraTeam Rom. All the other ones I had that problem. That's just me though.
[LG Thrill 4G] jznomoney:
dcmcc99 if you do the *#*#4636#*#* and switch to wcdma only does it connect for you?
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
Yes! It took a little bit for it to connect, but it worked.

When trying to connect to USA band it says unsuccessful. It says it for all bands though.

[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
Flash the P920 baseband, V18a, and then try flashing AcuraTeam Ginger Euro rom. The P925 baseband is to get back to stock Thrill froyo baseband to run froyo roms.
[LG Thrill 4G] hidarez:
Ok, I'm on the P920 baseband now, about phone shows 'L6260_modem_sic_01.1042.00'. Is that right? I've flashed to AcuraTeam Ginger Euro V5, same thing.

I think the modem shows the same on either baseband. Let me know how it goes.
[LG Thrill 4G] hidarez:
No go, same thing :( Sometimes it wont even recognize the sim and I've tried sims from two different phones.
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
Try a couple different things. First off, boot back into recovery, do factory reset and then wipe dalvik cache and reinstall the GB rom. If that doesn't work I would try loading the V18a baseband again with the GB rom already loaded. Make sure you're getting 22% when loading the baseband.
