Ok I just got off the phone with a nice lady over at AT&T customer support. She confirmed that the 4.4 KK started rolling out today. And that it isn't released all AT once to everyone. It is released in batches. She wasn't quite sure how they decide who gets it first.. but she assured me it is coming. And the device not registered error we are getting will go away when they push the update to your particular device. So just keep checking for updates every 24 hours.

HK Kitkat Restore

Is it ok to flash back to stock from HK KK for e988. I did the CWM restore, but I have ATT e980
[LG Optimus G Pro] spexwood:
Question:

According to the "Fix soft bricks. Flash back to stock using LGFLashTools" thread, the flashing will also wipe the internal SDcard (pictures, music, videos, documents, etc). Is this true?

I just need to know if I have to spend the extra time backing up these files or not. I mean, CWM flashes don't wipe the internal SD, so I usually don't back it up, but if the LGFlashTools method does, then I need to know. I don't like nasty surprises, if you know what I mean LOL.
[LG Optimus G Pro] dpalmer76:
It will!!!!!!
[LG Optimus G Pro] overboard1978:
or you can remove the internal sd card before flashing but leaving it in will erase it

I am having problems in flashing the .tot file. I followed the instructions from here : http://lg.storagecow.eu/?page_id=10

I am running the HongKong E988 kitkat firmware with root and cwm recovery on my ATT E980 device. When I try to flash the tot file, lg flash tool says "Device model is different" and the flash fails. I have replaced the original megalock.dll with the patched one and I'm also using the dll file (LGE980_20130314_LGFLASHv151.dll) for E980.

I have attached a screenshot of the tool displaying the failure message.

Any ideas how to go about it ?

Strange, because the program what it does is rewrite the partitions on the system and data, if E980 AT & T would not have problem, I have the same model and even bricked I revived, you just put your mobile in download mode and you set the COM port 41 and then you connect, before all that you have to choose the file.

I had the same issue trying to flash from KK F240S to JB E980, the only way I found to overcome this is a path somewhat long: first going back to E980 by using the .kdz method, not the .tot one. I flashed the central america E980H .kdz rom first, then LG Flash Tool allowed me to flash E980 without issues. Just take this into account if you don't find a better solution.

Many thanks to everyone actively keeping our beloved LGOGP alive and updated. My unit is E980, but I live in PH using SMART network. I have all the files and ready to flash AT&T KITKAT, but I'm afraid I might end up hating all the bloatware and being unable to use hotspot tethering plus the dreaded 4G data icon, that I might end up flashing back the Panama Rom again. Is someone working on making a full review video of the AT&T kitkat rom and posting it on youtube? Hoping I could see what I'm getting myself into before i do it.

Stock ATT KitKat: How do you change network mode (Tmobile)?

Hi everyone.

I was hoping someone would be in the know in terms of figuring out a way to change network mode on the new stock ATT kitkat rom. I am currently on Tmobile and heavily depended on the ability to change network mode to GSM/WCDMA preferred or auto on JB. I managed to enable this previously hidden menu by altering the build.prop file ro.networkmode to enable.

Unfortunately, now, even after making that same quick edit with text editor, the menu is no longer available and i'm stuck on weak LTE signals for calls.

If anyone knows a work around, or a step that I am missing please fill me in!

Thanks!!
[LG Optimus G Pro] overboard1978:
Type *#*#4636#*#* from dialer then select phone info then press the menu button select radio band will appear. Im only seeing gsm/umts listed previously it would list gsm/wcdma, auto and several others. thinking you might want to try flashing older modem from jb and try this method again with older modem file installed.

Won't start flash

OK I don't know whats happening. Can anyone help? 1st time flashing but I'm pretty good at researching and following instructions. I've followed all instructions from here http://tot.storagecow.eu/ & http://lg.storagecow.eu/?page_id=10 and even here tho this 1s slightly different http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2302660

Anyway everything goes fine. I follow 1-10, the port is set to COM 41 and I only have port 1 selected. The files are in the right places and I go into download mode, phone is in debugging mode and the port always turns yellow and says Ready!! But the process never starts. When I try instruction 10 it just goes right back to the same warning download sign as instruction 4 (regular download mode) The process never starts. Can any1 with more experience help. Did the instructions miss something. I followed them to a T.

O and I'm flashing the new kitkat TOT from this thread.

Help please :(
[LG Optimus G Pro] hyelton:
Are you clicking the arrow yellow on the software?
[LG Optimus G Pro] kingrise:
Yes. It goes through a process which takes about a minute and then says Ready!! In that port and the color turns yellow. But one of the problems may be that from download mode into the reboot download mode I'm not sure exactly how to do it. In the instructions it says to hold down the power button and as soon as it turns off press and hold the vol up. I didn't know whether you also release the power or keep holding it down. But I did both and neither did anything. So I began powering off and releasing the power button and pressing both vol keys. That led me back to the download mode but nothing happens. Maybe that's what I'm not doing right. Which is it?
[LG Optimus G Pro] jdk2:
Turn the phone completely off. Give it a few seconds. Forget the Power button. Hold the volume up and volume down buttons simultaneously and plug the cable into the computer. The phone's screen should say download mode. GO through the same process you mentioned above and when the yellow "Ready" appears, unplug the usb cable from the computer for 5 seconds then plug it back in. It will start the flash.
[LG Optimus G Pro] kingrise:
still stuck

thanx for responding. But that didn't work. I've tried it over 10 times. I've tried to uninstall and reinstall both the drivers and flashtool. Nothing. I've checked and rechecked looking for an error and I don't see 1. The only thing I had a problem with was the flashtool. At first it wouldn't open. Said something about a key missing and it asked for a user and password. But when I replaced the megalock already in that one with another one provided by Heyton (in a link above) it opened up no problem. And I never get any errors during the process.

I also don't have to change the port to com41. It's already there. I've seen videos where they go into property-advanced-port and change it. I don't have that option.
[LG Optimus G Pro] jdk2:
Just to check, you're unzipping the file and pointing the flashtool to the .tot file (BIN_LGE980AT-00-V20g-ATT-US-APR-28-2014+0.tot) and not the .zip? And you're pointing the flashtool to the correct .dll (LGE980_20130314_LGFLASHv151.dll)?
[LG Optimus G Pro] kingrise:
Got IT!!!!

Got it!!!

Since I'm a noob I thought that the device manager was in the flashtool. That's why I never found it. After writing the last reply it hit me and I found where it was that I changed the port. LOL:laugh:

Anyway thanx a million to Heylton and wolfgart for the file. Still flashing it but I'm happy!!!

And thanx jdk2 for helping.

Something weird happened. It went through nearly the whole process. Last time I noticed it was over 95% but when I looked again it said Download failed in red. But everything seems normal. Got kitkat. Looking good 4 now. Hope that it is normal and I don't have any problems down the line. Because it did the factory reset, rebooted then the error came out.
[LG Optimus G Pro] hyelton:
Its normal as long as it goes over 85% its done..
[LG Optimus G Pro] psal217050:
I took the official ATT download but forgot that I must have had CWM 6.0.4.7 on the phone and it looped. So I tried redoing the phone with the old Flashtool151 version.

Not a noob but I am just having trouble with LG Flashtool. I uninstalled the older version, removed the older drivers, downloaded everything off the OP for ATT E980 version. Installed the new drivers. Downloaded the Megalock.dll and put it in the LG Flashtool folder. Extracted but did not run LG Flashtool. Put Tot in folder. Then went to download mode, then this:

LG USB/Parallel Lock Key is Not Detected!!!

Login Screen shows Republic of Korea and hit enter (twice)...Authentication Failed.

Not having a good morning (since 3am USA ET). Help is appreciated.

Do we need to change the date to prior to August 2011? What about being on the internet?

EDITED:

Finally got into it but it is staying at the Ready screen in Com41. I

"10) Press and hold power button until phone turns off, leaving usb cable connected to device AND computer ,immediately hold volume up button until phone boots it into Download Mode.

Your LG G Pro will restart showing firmware installation progress in percent (%).

When all is done, reboot your phone and enjoy!"

Get to step 10 above and re-enter DL mode by holding vol +/- but it goes to DL and LG Flash stays where it is.

Double check that your phone is on com 41...needs to be changed in device manager.

Disconnect your phone then load

.tot and dll in LG flash tools.

Then press the yellow arrow....LG flash tools should begin working on the bin.<-------Phone should not be connected here.

When it's says READY turn your phone off then hold both up and down volume keys then insert the usb.

LG flash tools Will do it's thing do not touch anything until your phone reboots. Most likely it will show an error after 95% or so. Doesn't matter as long as the phone reboots.

I have the phone, bought it for about $280 from china....... to replace my smashed NOTE 2. but my existing prepaid telstra Next G SIM doesnt work/detect, which i assumed it wouldn't, however i went to telstra shop to test a 4G sim card, but the phone is not detecting any sim.

the phone came with SU already installed so it must of been rooted by the supplier... no idea why! I was expecting a NEW PHONE with stock software.

heres my phone software details.

3.4.0

[LG Optimus G Pro] hyelton:
That's odd. As long as its sim unlocked it should work even if its just edge. Check settings/phone into/status see if it shows the number on the sim you inserted. Also what does the IMEI say under status? Is it all zeros or does it have random numbers? Don't post the entire IMEI just the first few digits. And one last thing have you tried a network scan?
