Search for an unbrick guide. You need to flash it using SmartFlashTool, to get it working again. Also read my noob how to, you ll find a solution there as well ;)

Small Question Before Starting This

Model Number: LG-P970g

Software Version: LG-P970g-V10a

Android Version: 2.2.2

Note: it is the white model

LG Electronics no longer supports updating from 2.2.2 to 2.3.4 or ICS anymore and the official updater does not allow me to update.

I finished calling tech support last night and this is what he told me.

I also tried to look at the LG Electronics website to see if it's available on there and it's not.

I see that we are flashing to the firm-ware...

However it's my understanding that V20I_00.kdz is Gingerbread for the P970

What I need to know is if this method patches the current firmware on the phone or does in reinstall a whole new firmware.

If it just patches the current firmware how can I get my phone to 2.3.4 V20i if that's what works in this case...

I hope this is a good question because I hate being stuck at 2.2.2 no root and no OC the battery life could use Set Cpu desperately...

So here I stand confused in-front of a bunch of experts.:eek:

PlayStore Reboot Solution, Flashing From Other Version Info., Possible Overclocking

PlayStore Reboot Solution:

I had issues with Google PlayStore causing the device to reboot, the following solved that issue and may or may not solve your security issue as well.

1. Flash a V20 using smart flash (use LG Rom Converter to get bin and fls files). Patch with CWM and I can confirm that CWM Touch does work as it's working on mine now.

2. When phone reboots into CWM insert SD Card while device is on (you had to take the battery SIM and SD out when S/W updating) then Install superuser.zip

3. Wipe data/factory reset

4. Wipe cache

5. Wipe dalvik cache

6. Wipe batt stats

7. Insert SIM

8. Insert Battery

9. Reboot

10. Unplug device

NOTE:

**The SIM card said it was not there the first boot but just after turning airplane mode on and off it worked just fine ;)

**The battery may read the wrong level for a short period of time but this will go away shortly don't worry!

Flashing From Other Version

The video states you must be running 2.3.4 and this is not true as the bin and fls are the full ROM patched with CWM. I talked to the developer of the converter in the quote below:

OverClocking:

I think that the proxyqV4 kernel will be suitable for use with Surpressed ROM.

These both are supported for the P970 model.

A lightweight ROM with a stable over and underclock? any news on this? See link below someone does state they get a stable 1.3Ghz OC with it.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1723397/

Hope some of this is helpful as I was searching for this stuff a long time! :victory:

Extended battery and OC here we come for me haha!

This has been happening for a few days now, the phone turns off and endlessly vibrates until I pull the battery, and then it does it again and again but it'll work for a few hours before it happens again... I've tried different roms but its still happening and it's getting very frustrating :(

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] vincom:
no.

try this test, when it goes through the bootloop, keep the power button depressed w/out releasing it and see if it displays the same charactersistics as your bootloops, also count the seconds each situation has, if they are the same then the problem is the sticky power button
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hd2k10:
As posted earlier, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1801226

It's the power button that is messed up, hands-down.

Try and try and try and sooner or later you'll probably get it. I could care less about the phone as I have a replacement coming, but I wanted to get my data off of it.

Open up you're phone if you're comfortable and mess with the power button directly some, either you're going to fix it long enough to get your data or break it completely...doesn't really matter at this point.

Just put the battery in and right after the phone vibrates hold the power button and see how lucky you are at getting it to last the full 8+ seconds instead of the usual 2 before it reboots and vibrates.

Once you get it working, don't touch that *****. As gently as possible, set it down and get your USB in, turn on Mass USB and debugging and copy your stuff. Put the timeout to the max or download an app so you don't have to touch the power button ever and just touch the screen every once in awhile if you don't have an app. Don't forget to reset your flash counter and reflash stock ODIN if you're rooted or on anything custom (Use ADB to reboot through all this)

Honestly...I let my phone restart on its own for a total of like 8 hours (I didn't care and honestly hoped it burnt up or something and was completely fried) and I watched it for a good chunk of the time and it never booted up on its own. After I took it apart twice and beat the hell out of the power button a good while I finally got it to work.

Repeatedly mashing it after 'attempting' to clean it and then pulling the battery/reinserting and seeing if it worked is how I finally got mine.

Now it's just a paper weight till the new one comes.

Edit: I find it weird that a lot more of these problems are popping up. I noticed a bunch of threads on various sites towards the end of June that had popped up and now some are here too recently. I guess the Skyrocket's cheap-feeling Power Button is indeed...cheap.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] aceownstheworld:
It isn't the power button. I posted this problem months ago and took it in to a device center. It was actually a battery issue where it connects into the phone. The charge going into the phone doesn't stick, causing it to flicker power and thus restart constantly. They never ended up getting my old one to turn on and never saw it was rooted and what not. Ended up just giving me a refurbished one.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] vincom:
well if it never turns on, then its not the sticky power button problem, the sticky power button has a reboot symptom at a consistent interval
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] SGS2X:
Alright, I will definitely try and try until the phone turns on before taking it into the store. This has actually been happening for a few days now but I didn't really care too much because I was really busy and I thought since it turns on after a few tries, I'll just take the files off and return it to stock later. Also, yesterday someone gave the suggestion of repeatedly jamming the power button and that actually worked twice but after that it never worked again.

Is it possible to remove the back and fix the power button without voiding the warranty (are there any stickers)?

EDIT: I have it disassembled right now, what exactly should I do to the power button? I tried clicking it a few times and blowing at it nd I put the battery in but still the same thing

EDIT 2: Umm what looks to be the litmus paper on the inside is red.. the phone has never come in contact with water so how is this possible..

EDIT 3: Every housing I've seen online (4-5) has a red square on the housing so I'm guessing it comes in red by default? Either way I'm taking it to Rogers right now, they said I could have a refurbished for 35 or I can just repair this one so I'm just going to repair it and hopefully the files will be preserved.

My only concern.. the phone running Juggernaut 5 right now LOL and the internal SD is full of rom zips and kernels so hopefully they don't look at that, or don't care. Once they repair the phone, what can they really do tho? Break it again nd send it back? haha
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] hd2k10:
I would just fiddle with the power hoping for the best.

As far as your roms go, I doubt it'll be a problem. A) They're not going to get the phone to turn on anyway. They're probably just going to repair the button and reflash before they even check anything. Either way, like you said, the worst case is they find it but you already have your replacement...maybe they'll try charging you the phone, throw a hassle and offer to cancel your service and tell them to send you your "unwarranteed phone" and the button repair bill and they can have theirs back. I don't seem them getting you for it. All they might do is check the flash counter which probably hasn't been tripped if you didn't use a bad ODIN.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] vincom:
i never seen this rom, where did u get it, is it for the skyrocket, if not could be your prob
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] SGS2X:
Flash counter is at 0, I checked when I managed to get into Download mode before it stopped working altogether. Juggernaut 5 is a rom for the Hercules (T989) and that's not the problem, I've used it before and I only flashed it after the problem started because I thought ICS was the problem, but it stayed even after flashing Juggernaut.

It should be easy.

Flash this in bootloader (Vol Dn + Power). Put the file on root of your SD Card. Then rename it to PB99IMG.zip

https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B-4hydAqepNwbUZqWUd0ZTlFaW8

Then then pull your battery off, and copy on your root of SD card file below. It is unrooted stock ROM for desire. Again, you have to rename this file to PB99IMG.zip and flash in bootloader. It should be working.

I did this yesterday and was before using the same rom as you do. My proximity sensor does not work properly so I have to send my device to the service.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] handy5876:
imo this is not fastboot flashing. Flashing from fastboot means putting the device in fastboot mode, connecting the PC with USB and executing the fastboot program with the img file as argument.:)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xpeter88:
And how do you call it? You need to flash this two ZIP files from Fastboot (you do not need USB connection with PC or Andrid Flasher utility) when requested files are stored on SD card. When you enter fastboot mode it will search for file PB99IMG.zip and if found this on your SD card root it give you an option to flash it.
