to do this method i need to have a recovery install o something. im just root my phone and i stock 4.1.2. i need to follow the instrucciontion and thats it o i need to do something before?
[LG Optimus G Pro] allanchou:
Thanks !!!!!
[LG Optimus G Pro] javiierziito89:
All the steps you have done what you did, if you put the mobile in download mode and you get the red rectangular ad with white lettering on the mobile screen with "download mode" everything is perfect, if the Flash LG Tool has loaded. tot and. dll and press the yellow arrow and then you showed word "Ready" until there everything is going great, you maybe the problem is that you have not set the port COM 41 and why not start the program when you connect your phone and notice well if this COM 41 and if not so change it from your device manager, I think there lies the problem .. Blessings.. :)
[LG Optimus G Pro] psal217050:
Unfortunately, I do have it on COM 41. I have used the flash tool several times successfully in the past but it doesn't want to work here. Even changed the date to pre-August 2011 just in case that is still needed...it didn't specify in OP.

EDITED:

Just got off the phone from ATT (one more time) and they are now saying that the 4.4 isn't available for the E980...what a joke they are.
[LG Optimus G Pro] javiierziito89:
No joke, he thought I already knew, from the day 05.21.14 now available kitkat version 4.4.2 for our AT&T E980.. :Bueno:
[LG Optimus G Pro] psal217050:
Tried a different cable to get LG Flashtool to work, still didn't. Any suggestions, like rather then power down and vol +/-, redo download with dropping in the battery (tried that) or unplugging USB several times and replugging it?

I am game if I can find a methord. Currently on the 10P software too if I have to root.

EDITED: New cable, flashed the TOT, everything is good. Thanks to Hyelton and Esimon311...great job.

thanx. highly recommended

First of all thanx again to Heylton and wolfgart for the tot file. Now to anyone , especially noobs on the fence on whether this update is worth it or not... It DEFINITLY IS!!!!

Wow. Great improvement on what was already a great phone. Fixes all the little annoying things wrong with the 4.1. Do it. My 1st time flashing. And tho I had a hick up figured it out and did it. Thanx again !!

Keep Losing Root

I have no issues with any of the steps. I flash the 20g update with Flashtools; I root the phone with the root toolkit file, install Supersu from the Play Store, reboot my phone, install the GProRecovery apk and everything works perfectly until I reboot recovery or reboot the phone. Once I reboot and then go back into Supersu or I start downloading my apps, I'll get a message saying no su binary installed and then I have to reflash and start from the beginning. If I just try to re-root, it never works and I continue to get the "no binary installed" message. I've read at least 7 threads about updating the e980 to KitKat using stock TOT but no one else seems to lose root. I've flashed and reflashed roughly 11 times and keep losing root. What could be the problem??

Thanks!!

back to stock - softbricked at&t e-980

My E-980 softbricked on me when the OTA upgrade began w/o my knowledge somehow, and the battery popped out while it was updating. Now it boots to the LG Logo, tells me Secure Boot Error, that something is UnLocked and Boot Success?

Then it's off to TWRP menu, and neither of my recovery images properly restore the phone to boot.

So...

How may I restore this tele to stock AT&T ROM?

Tried these instructions, had issues. I can host some files is folks need them...

Let me know if you want me to mirror a few files, and I can.

ANY help getting my phone un-bricked would be MOST helpful. THANK YOU!

Ryan
[LG Optimus G Pro] hyelton:
Hi, Mirrors are not needed my Servers are back up and going and files are working.

What issues did you have, you didnt say? Make sure your following the TOT guide exactly as it is and in download mode before flashing

I have really tried to follow instructions but it just doesn't make sense to me. Had to disable fishing on Chrome to able to even dl some files then my Comodo Antivirus automaticaly deletes some files as soon as I even try to unrar. How come its so hard to just release a plain old rom to flash. Does anybody have a video on how to do this. Would love to update to Kit Kat but its gotta be bullet proof.

I am a bit lost

I am looking for the Telcel E980h Firmware to try that. when i updated my phone on AT&T to 4.4.2 it grays out my APN type and I can not change my setting to work on straight talk. so I flashed back to the att 10g . I like the updated but can not use the stock AT&T and didn't see the Telcel E980h Firmware or maybe i am just over looking it in the File locations for the downloads... plus my phone is still locking out my Tethering. can you point me the direction I need?

Im not sure how to get freegee.to.work it should work no problem but the app is stupid and.wont do it even though it would work fine. I swear i got.it to work once but i cant get it to now.

[LG Optimus G Pro] hyelton:
Awesome! I glad ya got it fixed!
[LG Optimus G Pro] bladerunnermx:
About the service I've been using it the rom and I don't have problems, where ever I go the 2g and 3g is always to 100% of signal. The only difference is presented by LTE, if I go to the city or near always is 100% but in my house, which is a bit far from the city the signal descends to a range between 45% to 70%. I never get 100% of LTE signal in home.

You enter the APN and hit menu and hit save, if your hitting the back button then there is your problem. ;)

[LG Optimus G Pro] kingrise:
Noob too but mayb I can help

Tho I'm not 100% sure but I believe OP means opening post or original post. In other words page 1. I've successfully flashed my e980 wirh 4.4.2. It's great tho it seems to drain my battery faster then jelly bean. I used the tot method. First time flashing for me but I followed instructions and everything turned our ok. Just follow ALL instructions. And don't do anything extra.

---------- Post added at 05:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:10 PM ----------

Why does my battery drain faster now when supposedly kitkat was supposed to save battery consumption? I flashed the first tot link put up by Heylton about a month ago. Haven't had any other problems. But the android system and screen take up a great part of the drain.
[LG Optimus G Pro] hyelton:
did you reset or flash over without resetting? also remember to calibrate your battery. running it completely dead and charging it to 100% without interruption
[LG Optimus G Pro] kingrise:
Hummm

Hey. Before I flashed I did not do a factory reset. I didn't do one after either tho flashing it the lg flash tool does one automatically. Should I have done another? All I did was a normal reboot. What do you suggest I do now. Should I first try to calibrate the battery to see if that helps? Or am I better off doing a factory reset? Don't want to cause I would have to back up and restore. But I would if it would help. And would I have to re-flash???? Since I didn't do one before.
[LG Optimus G Pro] jdk2:
Are you using the same apps you had before the update? Battery may need a couple of days to settle in after the flash as you're reinstalling stuff and using the phone more than normal initially. You're right that the flash tool does a factory reset. I don't have any problem with battery drain now or when I was on 4.1.2.

I respect and appreciate everything hyelton has done for this forum and members providing an enormous server with hard to get files BUT exercise caution with the battery conditioning. These aren't NiCad batteries that suffer memory. Li-on batteries don't suffer memory, like being charged often, and may degrade when draining them to 0% (indicated) frequently.
[LG Optimus G Pro] kingrise:
Don't think this is normal2663

Ok. So what I have noticed is that when I use the phone for lets say 20 minutes straight in the dark (minimal screen brightness) just doing normal activity my phone would get hot and in those 20 minutes battery would drain a good 10-15 percent. That would never happen before. Only when playing a heavy game like real racer 3 for 20 minutes. Before I could b on my phone for an hour for that battery percentage use. And it would never get hot like that with just normal use. Only with heavy use. I am using new apps but I try to keep them controlled limiting services and always checking which processes are initializing and for how long. Let me keep an eye on them and I'll post again if I find something.

Thanx for the reply. So not recommended to drain the battery to 0%?
[LG Optimus G Pro] jdk2:
I wouldn't drain the battery but YMMV. How long have you had the phone? Or how old is the battery? It's possible it's gone south. It really sounds normal from my point of view. You're using it and it drains proportionally.
[LG Optimus G Pro] kingrise:
The phone and battery are 6 months old. It may b normal. But it sure as hell wasn't like that b4. Hopefully I'll figure it out. Thanx again.
