Are we talking about the same program? I haven't seen that option so I will have a look now!

I will wait for V21E but I have a Windows 7 computer and I don't have access to a Windows XP machine :(

---------- Post added at 08:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:56 PM ----------

My phone isn't factory unlocked so it's not one of the Europe Open handsets, is that why I haven't seen the country and language option?
[LG Optimus 3D] dreccon:
The official LGMobile Update Tool has a menu bar right under the title. The rightmost option is "Options & Help". Press that and you'll see a submenu to change your country and language. I don't know what happens if your phone is locked to a provider. Mine was not.
[LG Optimus 3D] droidnico:
Yes I have the option for that. What country would be best to use?

Thank you for your help :) I much appreciate it.
[LG Optimus 3D] dreccon:
That depends on which country releases v21e first (hopefully that version will fix ghost calls). We don't know yet. For the time being, the latest ROM is Germany v21d. It seems to handle ghost calls better, but it doesn't solve them completely.
[LG Optimus 3D] droidnico:
I just selected Germany and tried to proceed and the updater said that it is not supported :( I had a feeling that would happen as the phone is from a network, not Europe Open.

Do you think it is worth trying to flash 21D or wait for 21E?

Thank you.

[LG Optimus 3D] dreccon:
As I already said, you'd better wait. Other people are returning to Froyo!
[LG Optimus 3D] Mouselik:
I did return to Froyo.. And I've gotta say... Its really good to have my phone back! hehe
[LG Optimus 3D] droidnico:
You are right. That's the best thing to do.

Can I still flash the device without the software update when 21E is released even though I am using Windows 7? As I don't think that online update will work - I hope it would! As right now the software says the update is not required.

On the second post, you have the guides I used to instal v10k. The guide is very explicit and everything went good.

I used win7.
[LG Optimus 3D] DrGomez:
The voice button on the gingerbread keyboard is gone when you use the froyo baseband, right? For me it's gone since i installed it.
[LG Optimus 3D] Mouselik:
I've installed an app called "keyboard from android 2.3" that has got the voice button. Its a very good alternative imo.
[LG Optimus 3D] d-shade:
I returned to Froyo a while back but I have issues with email when using exchange it sends 3 of the same emails which makes it difficult to use for work(the reason I switched to GB to begin with). So I bought Dell Venue Pro to use until the ghost call issue is fixed on GB so I can have a phone that functions normally with everything, plus I wanted to try a WP7.

It also sucks being in the US with this phone as we don't even officially have GB for our phones yet, which will probably mean we will never officially get ICS for this phone.
[LG Optimus 3D] lw_wl:
@_@ either the official fb page totally lies about it, or the care department was kept in the dark for months! #⊙﹏⊙#

I used GO Keyboard while I was on Froyo and I'm still using it. It has options to enable the voice button and arrow keys. The arrow keys are useful for gingerbread too but essential for froyo which doesn't have a cursor handle.
[LG Optimus 3D] Mouselik:
Well, I'm having minor issues with Froyo but nothing major.

And I'm not thinking of buying a new phone (I'll jump the first generation of quads) and call me stupid, but I have hopes that LG keeps its promise of ICS in Q3/Q4.

And when the contract is over I'll get back to HTC.
[LG Optimus 3D] botson71:
The incompetence of LG customer service is shocking, as always.

They told him "we have available the V21D version" while this ROM was removed from LG servers more than one week ago.

And the carriers here didn't release V21D... So we face another problem: when LG finally gives us the new update, the carriers will not do anything about it.
[LG Optimus 3D] raskall:
I am chatting with LG Support (Norway) right now and they claim that a new software have just been released.

When I asked if it was the v21e that were being pushed I got this answer:

"According to my information it is v20Q. I have no information about v21a".

And now they want me to send in the phone "for service".

What a load!
[LG Optimus 3D] Mouselik:
Why would they want you to send it to service? Just realease the update! Damn LG!
[LG Optimus 3D] raskall:
Another answer now. The tech has obviously done some research:

"It can find the update to non-nordic models that might fix the hardware problem, but for the nordic models it needs service to switch the main board"
[LG Optimus 3D] Mouselik:
He said "fix the hardware problem"? I think I've read here somewhere that switching the mainboard didn't help. Does someone knows anything about it? I'm unable to find where I've read that...

[LG Optimus 3D] botson71:
Yes some people in the past have changed their board but that was mainly due to phone problems when updating from Froyo to GB.

1-2 people also said in the previous pages that they had their board replaced and didn't have ghost calls after that.

What LG Norway said about "hardware problems" is completely new though. If it's true, it confirms what someone said few pages before that he experienced a RIP incident while using Froyo.

Also if it's true, and LG admits it officially (which I very much doubt it) it would be a complete PR and logistics nightmare for LG. Imagine thousands of O3D phones being recalled to have their board replaced.
[LG Optimus 3D] droidnico:
I agree, I highly doubt LG will admit it. I think they should get the update out for everyone and we can all forget this!

I hope they release the ROM soon!!! I want to go have Gingerbread!
[LG Optimus 3D] lw_wl:
THANKS!

i hope this is not ture. i am not suffering the gc problem in froyo right now. which appears that they absolutely can do something on the software to fix the GC issue. i wish the final solution would not be replacing the mainboard. ╯﹏╰

---------- Post added at 03:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:07 PM ----------

i doubt it is a ghostcalls free rom.

Modifying the clock speed is something that some guys already been tried and failed on solving the GC issue.
[LG Optimus 3D] ThiaiZ:
Same to me in Sweden, they want me to send the phone back for changing main board. That would be the 4th time I am sending this crap to service.

Hi guys just a quick note, i've been havg this problem for a while too and with my Nexus one finally giving up the ghost have decided to try and go about a refund if possible or a repair/replacement. Sent this email to lg customer care and wil let you all know if anything comes of it.

Must be the telco......

I can reliably reproduce the ghost calls and lost txt problem when using my Telecom NZ SIM in my P925G. Within a couple of hours things go wrong....and go wrong again and again.

But when I use my 2Degrees SIM in the same phone, it is 100% reliable - always.

The difference qappears to be that Telecom NZ use Alcatel cellular equipment while 2Degrees use Huawei.

Same phone. Same firmware. Radically different reliability depending on the telco. I've been playing with this since mid-February. My P925G has now been on 2Degrees for a month and I have not lost a single call or missed a single txt.
[LG Optimus 3D] lw_wl:
pardon me,i dont understand what is 2 degree sim card. is it... something to do with the 2G, 2.5G, 3G switching？

---------- Post added at 06:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:16 AM ----------

how comes that much ghosts ←_← →_→ ！！

im wondering they dont even know theres some serious mistakes in the firmware, so they just keep try replacing with the new broad. -_-///

edit: so, ThiaiZ！my friend, you still havent get your refund yet？ what happened？
[LG Optimus 3D] webgelato:
I'm running with the latest titan kernel, and since I installed it I have had no ghost call.

I know it cause I transfer my calls when there is no answer on my other phone.

Seems this fix reduced considerably the issue
[LG Optimus 3D] raskall:
This just confirms my suspicion that it is a network issue. I think either the driver or hardware does not handle HSPA+ well. I have not lost a single call with "2G network only".

I guess one of your providers does not support HSPA+ and therefore never gets the problem.

I still think it's baseband-related. I have tried just about every ROM and have the same problem on all of them. Now I am back to unrooted stock.

The common denominator for all ROMs is the baseband.

The fact that CyanogenMOD based GB roms with Froyo basebands works supports this suspicion.
[LG Optimus 3D] lw_wl:
sounds good, can i ask, you been testing this titan kernel for how long?

and before this one, have you got any ghost call?
[LG Optimus 3D] xbsall:
Me and 5 of my customers used only 2G network option.

We all had ghostcalls.

Well, in some non stock ROMS that i've used i had ghost calls in all of them, so.. i putted the original one (20A) 1 month ago to return the phone for warranty and i didn't had Ghost Calls since... yesterday while in traffic i've called 100( :O ) times and SMS'ed the phone and i didnt losted a call or SMS, in 2G, 3G, data on, data off..when the previous ROM (21D) i had in 15 calls i had some GC.. so im not going to return it to warranty now.. ill wait.

[LG Optimus 3D] botson71:
Many people here have reported ghost calls on "2G network only".

With the European 21A I've also had many ghost calls on 2G-only mode but the issue has improved with the 21D. Just few ghost calls the last 4+ weeks since I've updated while the baseband recovers very fast after a crash.
[LG Optimus 3D] gioagril:
actually there's no information. He says 16 april2012

"Nessuna ghost call, nemmeno altri tester ne hanno avute.

2nd GC on v21D in more than a month. O3D showed no signal but my other phone kept ringing.
[LG Optimus 3D] Mouselik:
I think we have 2 distinct kinds of GC issues here.

On my v20a (vodafone PT) I had signal, had the 3g or H icon and all, and the phone was in ghost mode. I had no indication that I was unable to receive comunications

On other versions, the signal is lost, but the caller keeps ringing.

Could we be facing 2 diferent problems?
[LG Optimus 3D] dsmboost:
I just got a "Reorganizing internal processes" error when trying to make a call. How is this related to ghost calls? I'm on froyo.
[LG Optimus 3D] nanodigit:
Good question. I want to see a technical answer to this. Unless someone finally gets you and ask you "hey, why aren't you picking my calls?" or "why haven't you replied to my SMS?" you'll never know you're on GC list.
[LG Optimus 3D] cool_recep:
You had a ghost call. Congrats! (Better say a SIM crash or)
[LG Optimus 3D] dsmboost:
I thought gc was only for incoming calls?
[LG Optimus 3D] lw_wl:
could they be non-ghost call diversions?

i mean you have set a no answer diversion right?

if the diversion hasnt been setuped, it might just simply lost the signal, and the caller would hear about the phone youre calling is out of service.

if so, thats acceptable for me.
[LG Optimus 3D] lw_wl:
when this happen to froyo, the caller would be informed that the connection failed! it would not causing ghost call.
[LG Optimus 3D] sak500:
LOL as we needed another type of GC. The phone is really haunted
[LG Optimus 3D] Mouselik:
hehehe

Maybe its a stupid idea.. But, even if the result is the same (GC) the path to it seems different. In my case, the only visible sign that I'm on "ghost mode" is the battery draining really fast.

Wondering if it means different problems resulting in the same thing.
[LG Optimus 3D] Ygrek-Ix:
I send few days ago my phone to service with ghost call problem. They send me it back whit expertise that this is unrepairable bug and advise me to go to salon where I buy it. So i done that and salon say that i can exchange it for phone with about same price and it must be LG best I found it was LG Prada 3.0. Technically looks good, so I'm fully optimist on that. I advise you go and send it to service until they exchange it for new one or return your money.

[LG Optimus 3D] dsmboost:
Just had my first experience with gc today (I'm on froyo btw). I saw that I had a voicemail without any missed calls. I asked my friend that left the voicemail what happened when he called me. He said the first time he called, there was an automated voice saying that it cannot connect at this time. And second time he called, it rang only a few times and went to voicemail abruptly. Luckily, I just got this phone less than 30 days ago from an authorized at&t dealer, so I can go back and switch this phone with another one. Gonna go tomorrow to get a Galaxy S II.

I had high hopes for this phone and it is an amazing media device for the price it was, but it cannot be used as a phone and that is a necessity.

LG...never again.
[LG Optimus 3D] sandulea:
If this is true, and froyo also has ghost calls, then it really is hopeless. I have been back on froyo for months now, but it seems that I'll be pulling my ancient single color polyphonic Nokia out of retirement and carry this one around as a camera, gps, maps and docs device (and, quite ironically, as a backup phone when out bike touring). I'm too tired to test if I have gc on froyo as well, and I always liked hardware key devices more than touchscreen ones as far as the actual phone function goes.
[LG Optimus 3D] cassianog:
I've just downgraded to Froyo hoping to get rid of Ghost Calls and, to my astonishment, I'm reading that people are having Ghost Calls on Froyo too!!! "He's dead Jim!" :eek:

By the way, I would suggest that we keep typing Ghost Calls instead of GC. This way the issue may get more "spotlight" from search engines like Google.
[LG Optimus 3D] deleeros:
I had the ghost calls issue and switched back to froyo. Because of that I use my O3D occasionally and yesterday I got the "reorginising internal processes" message, That means that I have the same problem on froyo? Oh god !

so i am confused!

thereis been tested that v21e.CUCC

also is a haunted version -_-b

if v20g.OPEN just the same firmware for the non-CUCC users,

then it would also be haunted too ╮(╯_╰)╭！

Ghost Call %100 solved :)

Hello optimus users,

10 days ago I call LG service for the ghost call problem. They say we have the new offical rom v20e. I went to the service and they install the new rom. So i waited for 10 days to write here. After installing the new rom i had any ghost calls and the battery is going now more longer.

The bad news is, service said that LG isn't going to publish the new rom on internet. I don't no why?

But finally all P920 owners can fix their ghost shell problem.

+1 , still have the LG to sell but have brought the Galaxy Nexus, loving it.
[LG Optimus 3D] botson71:
What you've experienced wasn't a ghost call but a RIP (reorganize internal process) event. A "ghost call" is exactly what the term implies; you or the caller are not able to know if the call was received, which isn't what happened in your case.

When there is a "ghost call" in Gingerbread, the caller hears the phone ringing without any "automated voice saying that it cannot connect at this time" and without any call forwarding to the voicemail. The caller just hears the ringing tone and after a while the ringing stops. In your case this didn't happen and you and/or the caller were able to know that his call didn't go through (the first time) or went through (the second time).

This is my understanding at least, based on my experience and what many were saying here. That people who went back to Froyo have stopped experiencing ghost calls but a few have still experienced a RIP event. Actually not "few" but two people (here and here) and you. None of them said that he had ghost calls too.

Interesting news. Is there any chance that you could factory reset and root your phone and install clockwork mod recovery and then make a complete nandroid backup using cwm recovery and upload the backup files? That way we can all test this new and mysterious v20e.

I posted a post a few days ago and said that v20e from Turkey is maybe the solution of the GC, but unfortunately it is not.

After 15 days of using v20e, the phone started to malfunction again and this time even harder from the previous v21a I was using. Phone not just skipped some calls but also it stucked and killed fully charged battery in almost 2 hours. This malfunction happened 4 times in 2 days.

It's incredible that there are still no official announcements from LG, after all these monts. This is completely unacceptable.

Like everybody else in here, I am also planning to return the phone. This was the worst experience in my life with any kind of technological device.
[LG Optimus 3D] pandaball:
That's the so-called 'old' v20E. Apparently the new one being tested is different, but it seems to be bugged also :(
[LG Optimus 3D] vpamir:
I just called LG Mobile Support in Turkey. They told me that a new firmware has been distributed to service points which solves the issue and I can send my phone to be flashed. I didn't ask if it was v20e. I then asked when will it be available from LG Mobile Update tool, then she asked the techinal department and said that there was an error uploading the file or setting up the system so it may take a while before the update shows up on LG Mobile Update Tool. I just don't want to send my phone to service for just an easy flashing task. I think i'll be waiting a bit more for the update to show up on the update tool.

I cant believe that a phone cannot provide the basic function to receive call from our dearest friends: (
[LG Optimus 3D] TylDurden:
Their one and the same problem, if people are trying to call you and experiencing the GC issue if you try making a call than you will get the RIP message. Not 100% of the time but either way the phone is unable to make or receive calls, sometimes a call will come in but if you try and answer it the phone just freezes. Sometimes they get the automated message, sometimes they get the voice mail. Regardless of the symptom, the cause is the GC issue with the baseband.
