Guys,

There are two ways we can get this update.

1) We can wait it out. In the long run it's really not that bad. Yes we really want this update because it's going to be a boost to our phones but at least we have confirmation that the P769's are getting the update so it will reach us all at some point. We also can continue to use our phones in the mean time, remember 4.0.1 is 100 times better than 2.3 so it's not as thought we are running a horrible version of Android.

2) Those of us who are so inclined can brush up on our Android skills and try and find a way to use that update package Lelus was so nice to put up for us. Those who don't know how, can try and learn how to manipulate files like that. It's all well and good to come to XDA but we need to remember people like Lelus have lives and while they have delivered great things to us for our phones in the past we shouldn't just expect them to pull the rabbit out of the hat all of the time. If you really want the update, try learning how to manipulate it. The worst that can happen is you fail and we confirm we can't use it, the best is we all get a new developer or two to contribute and the update a little earlier.

Just my two cents.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Mars11_:
Lelus already told us how we might go about installing it.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] isaiahhhhh:
Missed my point, I was trying to get people to appreciate the fact that this is going to be a slow process and that we need to understand that it's not just up to Lelus to or the other devs to do it for us. I wasn't telling them how to do it but reminding them to try.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] EPayne123:
Couldn't agree more. That's how you learn more about it.

Where is my update?????????????????

Prime example.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] isaiahhhhh:
I did a little digging, do you think it's possible to adapt the method found here to the P769?

http://www.androidcentral.com/how-manually-flash-jelly-bean-update-your-galaxy-nexus

Basically they're taking the CWM img for the specific phone (i'm assuming we do have one for the P769) and booting to it through fastboot without installing it allowing us to use it only until the next reboot. It's been awhile since i've messed with custom recoveries (someone is borrowing my Kindle Fire so I put it back to stock effectively leaving me without a dev device) but my only fear is that we need to unlock the bootloader for something like this to work, and if that's true from what i've read that sounds painful on this device.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] isaiahhhhh:
I know but I was thinking could that have anything to do with the fact that CWM is permenantly installed when it's been tried?

I'm pretty sure it's official, multiple android news sources... Hopefully we get it tomorrow... I'm overly excited... It's actually kinda sickening...And I don't care if this update is a year old... It certainly beats what we currently have...

Just go to the tmobile website and search LG Optimus L9 update and youll see the info on it. Besides i think the multiple news outlets and technician confirmation i got on the phone is a good indicator. Usually tech support reads from a script and doesnt give out information like update confirmations without an internal OK to do so.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Nickdroid86:
Don't you effing hate when you click on "check now" and literally a half millisecond later it says "already up to date" it's like "you didn't even ****ing check!" Lmao

Help Documentation Link

http://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-5829

This link has a whole help documentation on Jelly Bean for the L9. I'm confident the update is coming :fingers-crossed :D
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] isaiahhhhh:
Yeah ive been checking all night but the technician seemed pretty confident the update started to roll out tomorrow. He also suggested i search "LG Optimus L9 Update" on the TMobile site if i couldn't get the update OTA. He said something about that search and seemed to allude to an update download along with the search.

There is a limit to the number of updates allowed per day. That is why we are all getting the message that it's up to date already. We just need to be patient, unless someone else provides a link to what they downloaded. I think I will wait for one of our genius devs to provide a ROM. I don't want to lose my root.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] isaiahhhhh:
Out of curiosity, when did you root? I've been reading up on the rooting of the P769 10g and it seems almost more trouble than it's worth.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] :
Rooting the P769 is the same compared to the other L9 models.

Unlocking the bootloader... well that's a pain :silly:

Who here is waiting till midnight to see if the download is released? :fingers-crossed:
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Nickdroid86:
Well... there's an hour and a half left, today is the 22nd. Still no update from anyone in America.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] isaiahhhhh:
I doubt it will happen exactly at midnight in any given timezone, my guess is it will happen at some point tomorrow during the day.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] EPayne123:
No update here either. I think it is funny we are already F5ing our System Update menus before the One S Flagship device haha. Florida here. If anyone can get the link for a previous OTA we can go ahead and check to see of any modifications can be done to it. Anyone have it to post for me to play with?

I'm still slightly concerned that the update won't hit my phone because i'm using a straight talk sim. The straight talk sim I bought runs on the tmobile network which was how I was able to use the P769 without unlocking it. I've found that I get a data connection with both the original TMobile APN Settings selected and the new straight talk ones I put through. Im still wondering if I should switch back to using the TMobile APN settings for this update.

I switched back to the factory APN just to be safe and then verified that I can still text and use data. I'll stick with the factory APN until I get the update just to be on the safe side.

Now how do I root this JB version? Anyone attempt it yet?

Are you rooted now?!
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] quailallstar:
No bone stock. I haven't even used the phone and still in plastic. Still using my Sony until I root this and use as a daily. Anything I can do to help before I apply the update? I downloaded it and its pending install.

At work I'm limited to what I can do on this PC but at home I have all my tools, etc.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Mars11_:
This is why:

Though, if you're not rooted I'm not sure how you'd get that file..
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Nickdroid86:

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] quailallstar:
Oh I see... :( Well then I'll proceed with the update and figure out how to root this JB version.

Finally got the update! Kept clearing data on framework services and I'm rooted should I pulling the zip?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Mars11_:
We need "dlpkgfile". It should be in /cache/fota/ .

4. clear data/clear cache is applicable

5. go back to system settings

6. down at the bottom scroll to about phone

7. Go to System updates and click check now. . .

Another way I've read is:

1. Clear your Google Servies Framework like mentioned above.

2. Go to your dialer

3. input *#*#checkin#*#*

4. Wait for the caution sign with an exclamation point in it saying check in succeeded.

5. Check phone for update.

Hopefully this may work for you, Good Luck!

I just followed these steps 3 times before it finally worked for me.

But yes I can confirm it worked for me and im downloading it now.

My phone is a P769 via t-mobile, never rooted or modified.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] ThrIsNoSpork:
Sure. I've still got about 150mb left to download and apparently a really slow sd card so the backup is gonna take about a half hour or so but ill link to it as soon as i can get it uploaded.

Correct it hasn't been installed yet. Maybe the file we are looking for is in a different directory. Any suggestions?
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] BrandonCormier:
Theoretically if he downloaded the update and made a nandroid before install, then someone else would be able to restore to his backup and update their device. Not sure if it would work though.

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] telepheedian:
I think it would, please, do this. You'd have to flash the nandroid over CWM, and then replace the recovery with stock, but everything should be in place to upgrade if it's nandroided properly. You could then upgrade, wipe user info, and have everything set just right.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Mars11_:
Actually, with the P769 the only way to get CWM is through 2nd boot, so stock recovery is still the default recovery.

We aren't able to root the JB update until someone shares the OTA file correct?

---------- Post added at 08:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:40 AM ----------

Here's something to try for those who don't mind possibly hard resetting their phone.

It requires rooted phone.

hopefully someone manages pulling dlpkgfile before doing the upgrade

dlpkgfile goes into /cache/fota/

chmod 0777 /cache/fota/dlpkgfile

ad6729f33f2f.ota_update_V10g_MR_FINAL_to_V20d_JB_QA_FINAL.zip goes into /cache

I think what actually triggers the update is hard/factory reset procedure : when the phone is switched off : vol- + home + power on

I'm out for today
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] ThrIsNoSpork:
There is no dlpkgfile in /cache/fota/
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] mderuelle:

Lelus provider of the current root for all L9 variants, already got the OTA and provided the zip HERE

No work on root or bootloader unlock yet, as only a few have even been able to get the OTA and it's the main concern..
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Nathan.7118391:
Not correct. . ok look here's the deal

1. We need for the JB update to be rootable via Bin4ry method otherwise see #2.

2. We need to compile a bin file and download the kdz file for jelly bean in order to do the Lelus fix with the magic trick we did to root ICS.

I don't see another way of rooting the phone other than those two methods. . .

OR we can do what we did the first time and use z4root, gingerbreak, etc and just rule them out but frankly I think it's a waste of time doing so.

I made a nandriod last night too prior to this so it may be the wrong one, the dates are messed up so im not able to tell which one is the right one so im kinda rolling the dice here. Let me know if this works.

Just flash with CWM and apply the update when prompted. Obviously you want to format data after youre finished ;)
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] telepheedian:
Just looking through the files, those look really small to be proper nandroids of the whole system. See if you can get a complete non-incremental nandroid backup, including the cache, system, and data partitions.

To do a non-incremental backup, go into advanced backup settings and change the backup type to tar.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] ThrIsNoSpork:

I agree that we should all be patient and be glad that we are getting a jelly bean update. Didn't even expect it to happen. Just got my phone rerooted and hopefully if I can snag an update file I can try the Lelus method of pulling the cache file we need.

Backup file question

Ok I have the P769bk(10g) rooted and stripped. I used the CWM to make two backups (1 stock, 1 stripped). I also made two other backups from the backup app that came with the phone (1 stock, 1 stripped). here is my question:

I read earlier that doing a hard reset would activate the update or trigger I believe the word that was used. So if I decided to do a hard reset then check for the update to see if it came. When enough time has passed where I just don't feel like it's working do you think I could flash the backup app file that came with the phone and it would be rooted again? Thoughts?

[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] telepheedian:

I have been using the About Phone --> System Updates --> Check Now option almost every hour since Tuesday when the update was announced (excluding the time I was asleep :P). Never saw the update.

I finally bit the bullet and tried the first way suggested above. It reset the last update check date to something in 1969 :eek: I clicked on Check Now and saw the magic words - "T-mobile is please to..." :victory:

Here are some details that should resolve some doubts people have been having -

1) I was shown the update available notification when I was connected via 2G. So, it is not necessary to be connected to WiFi to see the notification. I will be downloading the update after going home. My battery was at 80%

2) I am in Phoenix, Arizona. I purchased by P769 from T-Mobile somewhere in late Dec'12

3) I am rooted using the Lelus method. My phone is also network unlocked and I am using a GoSmart Mobile SIM card (One may argue that GoSmart Mobile is a T-Mobile MVNO and uses T-Mobile's network exclusively).

4) I am using GoSmart Mobile's APN settings and not T-Mobile's
