Just like everybody else, stopped at step 14 with the MFC testex error, tried it in 2 different windows 7 computers with no luck. Phone stuck in download mode. Tried steps 1-4 to try to revive the phone and it says communication error. So while trying to unbrick a perfectly working phone I have now actually bricked the phone, excellent.

SAME HERE! every guide i try just gets stuck at the KDZ fw update and goes no further? Suggestions?

---------- Post added at 09:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:50 AM ----------

Hold the power button down until the screen goes off. It took me like 20 seconds. Then just reboot your phone and it should turn on just fine.

Finally!

I finally got this to work.. the KDZ_FW_UPD would not work on my Desktop PC running Windows 7 64bit..it would hang and say "not responding.." My laptop is running Vista 64bit, and it works like a charm!

Thanks!

Windows 7 Compatibility

Do NONE of the KDZ FW flashing programs work with windows 7? I was given the suggestion of trying it with XP from someone who had a similar experience with windows 7. Is this a known issue? If not wanted to let it be known, and also that almost any one of these unbricking guides seems to not function with windows 7.

(I already tried running everything in windows xp compatibility mode, but no dice)
[LG Nitro HD] lordcheeto03:
I wish we could pinpoint why exactly some people have problems with Windows 7 and some don't. I've done all 3 unbrick guides in Windows 7 and never once encountered any problems.
[LG Nitro HD] Swetnes:
I take it that the virtual mode is out of the question due to not having a win xp disc?

I haven't been able to figure out why some people can and others can't get it to work under win 7 but here is my work around that does work.

1. Refer to this guide in how to setup the http app and how to modify the HOSTS file ONLY. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1597488

2. REBOOT COMPUTER

3. Open the LG upgrade tool, the one that installs when you install the drivers (it should say it cannot communicate with the server, or something like that with a little box by your system tray.)

4. Open the http app and minimize, should show an icon on the system tray.

5. Now go to the KDZ install apps in this thread and follow directions but stop BEFORE clicking on upgrade.

6. VERY IMPORTANT: Click on PHONE INFORMATION. Then on the window that opens click on UPGRADE at bottom of window.

7. Every thing will then complete per this guide.

If you get ANY errors at this point it probably has to do with the HTTP app. Just let me know and what error you get. Good luck.
[LG Nitro HD] farhan89:
It just won't work, I even tried XP compatibility settings, VirutalBox XP..

Works on my laptop running Vista 64bit tho.. Windows 7 64bit.. not a chance.
[LG Nitro HD] smash_07:
If i follow this procedure will it change any data from the ID number of the phone to another country or region? I have the European version of the LG Optimus TrueHD LTE P936 and don't want any changes to that since it uses AT&T roms here.
[LG Nitro HD] Swetnes:
If you are in reference to the build id, from what I understand all P93x have the same build id, but if you use the KDZ from original unbricking guide it will change your build id since it uses a su640 rom. As long as you use a P93x KDZ your build id won't change.
[LG Nitro HD] smash_07:
And if I install the stock ROM for the p936 to get back to stock does it set the ID back to the original one?
[LG Nitro HD] Shagerty:
Pretty sure if you just load titanium Backup it will detect the build id change and ask if you want to change it back to the original. Say yes and then the phone will reboot. Should fix it. Open Titanium Backup to check.

I spent a few hours on Windows 7 computer with zero results, then turned on my old laptop with Windows XP, and it took me about 40-45 minutes to go from GB 2.3.5 with unrootable locked bootloader phone to rooted phone using this method step by step. Thanks, Heretic!
[LG Nitro HD] crashingbore:
I just created an account to say thank you! I've been contemplating this for several weeks, and finally got up the courage. I used an old laptop with a fresh installation of Windows XP Professional. Your guide worked for my ICS p930 on the first try. :good:

The only confusing part for me was step 11. I still had the USB connected, and B2CAppSetup installed and wanted to upgrade the phone. I wasn't sure if that upgrade was part of what should finish before closing the application. I did not click the upgrade button. I closed the application and moved on to step 12. Should I have removed the USB before running B2CAppSetup?

I stopped after step 16 and installed Rom Manager from the Play store, and then ClockworkMod from within Rom Manager. I have installed the CM10.1 nightly, and love my phone for the first time. Everything is working perfectly so far. Thank you, hereric!
[LG Nitro HD] Mr User:
Does this work with never-rooted, official ICS LG Nitro HD?

I thought about rooting this phone since before LG released the official ICS update but didn't have time and eventually downloaded ICS, thinking LG did a better job this time around. Turns out the phone still gets too hot for normal use, eats battery like it was the whole Las Vegas and lags every now and then in very simple UI navigations.

I've had it with this CPU setting and very willing to change it.
[LG Nitro HD] jhall95351:
Kudos to Hereric for this package. I looked everywhere for it and found one other one with a dead link but a complete walk through. Had everything else except what was in the package from this thread. Took a few hours due to crash of LG updater but got it fixed and rooted.:good:
[LG Nitro HD] Swetnes:
Are you running windows 7? And how did you fix it? I have my own work around but it isn't the most elegant.
[LG Nitro HD] jhall95351:
This will definitely root your phone. Follow this guide to the "T" or if you want a little more detailed guide go here, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1969070 I had mine rooted no problem and I have never done this stuff before.:good:

---------- Post added at 11:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:23 AM ----------

Yes Windows 7 and I did the setup again starting from scratch and the second time it worked like a charm. I realized I missed step 4 of drumist's guide. I misread the instructions to WAIT until the phone rebooted each time to continue.
[LG Nitro HD] Swetnes:
I have yet to get it to work per the guide in win 7, but like I said above I have a non-elegant way of getting it to work. Was there something you did to keep the kdz installer from crashing? Now in xp or win 7's virtual xp mode it works like a charm I am thinking it has something to do with the environment variables, but at this point just a guess as I haven't had the time to spend to test my theory.
[LG Nitro HD] jhall95351:
I didn't install the KDZ I only needed the p930 exe file out of here. Wasn't looking to install custom roms just underclock cpu as att or lg had it overclocked. If you want a standard root then dl hereric's package and use the other thread I previously posted to mr user. I'm a noob and no nothing about customs roms or any of that stuff just did a lot of research on how to root first. Are you running v20c or a different version?
[LG Nitro HD] Swetnes:
LiquidNitro based on v20c (AT&T) with some minor tweaks of my own.

Edit: there is also a much simpler way to have rooted v20c that doesn't require downgrading to v18f first. I have tested it and it works directly in v20c: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2052321
[LG Nitro HD] jhall95351:
I tried that method and it didn't work. I tried many different ways to root. I.E. one click methods but none seemed to work. Everytime it would just do nothing and then freeze up the program on my computer. The guide provided by drumist was the easiest to follow except for the fact that i misread step 4. If you have a sdcard in the phone my advice is to back up all your contacts and anything else you don't want to lose and remove the card until you've finished the root.
[LG Nitro HD] RealyPssd:
Doesn't work for me, in step 14, I get a "MOD UpTestEX MFC Application has stopped working" error...

The first time I used this guide it worked fine using WIndows 7 Pro. 64-bit.

But I had to have my phone serviced so I upgraded to official v20f and now I've gotta re-unbrick to get CWM and root back.

Update: I followed post #163 and it worked.

How much are the subscriptions?

And whats the difference between subscribe and purchase?

Does purchase get the specific mag, whereas subscribing charges you automatically everytime a new issue is released?

Whats the advantages of subscribing?

THANKS!
[Nexus 7 General] dgattenb:
Android mag is 32quid for a year sub ,normally in paper 52 + the mags by them selves are 2.99 as opposed to 5 quid !! Can't lose !!!!!!!
[Nexus 7 General] Wilks3y:
Great, but that would only make a saving of £2? For buying a year.

I'd rather just buy episodes that look appealing than save £2 and have to have them all.

Because if theres 2/3 issues I don't really enjoy, thats another £6.

Although I agree that buying on Google rather than paperback is a win win. :)
[Nexus 7 General] bobsie41:
Probably a silly question but, if I subscribe to the free trial, download the magazine then cancel the subscription, do I lose the downloaded magazine?

On the other hand, why don't I just try it? :o
[Nexus 7 General] Wilks3y:
+1 to this.

And additionally if you get the trial, once the trial has ended does it prompt you or does it just automatically start your subscription?
[Nexus 7 General] bobsie41:
Don't know but I would strongly suspect that the subscription would start automatically without warning.

I have been caught out many times 'trying' various things this way and these people know that! :o
[Nexus 7 General] CrazyPeter:
I believe it holds the money for the trial period, and if you don't cancel, then money is then taken...

If you purchase, it's just that issue (in which case, take a free trial, read it and then cancel), if you subscribe, it's all of them. I'm guessing you can only try each magazine the once....

I did a trial subscription for the Android mag and it shows:

I am confused. Looking at Autocar for example it is showing as £2.99 a month (its a weekly magazine) or £99.99 for the year.

Aside from the fact that it is £89.99 a year direct from their website, why would you go for the yearly option?
[Nexus 7 General] dgattenb:
I just paid 32 quid for the year for android mag as opposed to 50+ quid to me that's not bad !
[Nexus 7 General] RichieG1:
I have signed up for the 30 day trial for the android magazine. It is a good read but there is only 13 issues so I don't think it is such great value. Also with Zinio you can get the same subscription for £27.49 for 13 issues which is 15% off the cover price. The price is £32.99 from the play store. Worth the trial but that's it!

[Sprint LG Optimus G] stealth919:
I finally stumbled across a camera app that definetly works better than the stock I think, its "UCam". After playing with it for a while I bought the Pro version it has a ton of extra features too. More Mb of info to every picture compared to stock app just seems to work better. I tried ZoomFX and a couple others but even at max Mp they seem to downgrade the picture compared to stock app.

Anyways just thought I would share this with everybody, have a good day.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] stealth919:

I didn't notice any real improvement in the picture quality, and wasn't a huge fan of their apps interface. But that's just me, maybe I'm doing it wrong.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] N4STYNATE:
I tried ucam as well since the stock camera app takes not so great pictures. I did a lot of research on this phone and the camera lens and sensor are actually really high end. But when I got the phone and took pictures it left a lot to be desired.

I am a big fan and user of a Nikon DSLR, but got this phone in hopes of using it as my primary camera so I don't need to lug around a huge camera anymore. With 13 MP and the best sensor on the market it should take phenomenal pictures. But the stock camera app doesn't.

So after trying EVERY camera app in the play store both free and paid (ended up spending $30 in the process) I found the best one by far.

It's called Camera FV5 and is $3.91 in the play store.

It mimics my $1500 DSLR down to the finest detail. It also takes amazing pictures, far better than the stock camera, and even ucam & JB camera +

I'll attach a camera UI screen shot so you can see what I mean. If you want a camera that's fully functional I would thoroughly recommend this purchase.

Hope this helps someone...

[Sprint LG Optimus G] Scotty_Two:
There is no aperture diaphragm on any cell phone (constant f-stop), so the only things that can be controlled are shutter speed and ISO. I do wish that both of them would be able to be controlled at the same time, but it is just a phone. I do like the app for having more control than most, having the settings lock is a huge plus as well as easily accessible white balance shift and exposure compensation. Overall I think it's a huge step up from the stock app.

am i the only one who hates that app and in love with the stock camera?

all are made in auto mode.

look at the last photo - i tried the same with ucam and fv5 - both made much worse - much darker, much less details. (the last photo is made in a complete darkness)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] N4STYNATE:
Yes, you are the only one. I haven't seen anyone say anything but negative comments about the stock camera app.

Do you have any photography experience? There is a lot more to really good quality photos than color saturation and brightness.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] agurzhiy:
i do not have a lot of photo experience, but i do understand when the photo has a lot of details, low noise level and a good brightness level.

i am not saying that this camera is perfect, but it went too far away from it's competitors (it's the best camera module i've ever seen). The only problem - is shaking - sometimes photos are motion blured...

i am not saying that this camera is on one level with dslr, but it's not that far behind as other phones...

as for the app

i've tryed the f5 app- all photos has much less details. and as for the deep night photo - with f5 it was darker, extremely undetailed (like oil painted)

as for the daylight photo - it is not that bad, but default is better...i want to make a photo chart and try it out on all apps...but now despite a huge amount of setting - it is still bad app.

Hboot is the only piece you don't want. What I did last time was download the pcimg file that contained latest firmware, radio, pri, prl, etc...

Make sure it dosen't contain kernel, hboot, or recovery.

Flash the new radios by booting into boot loader, then wait a day or two until ur favorite rom maker has updated their rom. Then flash that with recovery
