I have successfully converted my F180S to E975 without any problem and in 30 mins and i believe backing up everything is the most important part of conversion....(specially the modem backup)

1- made efs backup using "g tool pro"

2- downloaded "Android Terminal Emulator" from playstore

open emulator in phone wrote

su

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/modem of=/sdcard/modem.img

after some seconds this came out :

131072+0 records in

131072+0 records out

67108864 bytes transferred in 15.229 secs

then :

exit

exit

after that i checked sdcard but there was no img file...

then i open file manager from the phone and there it was my precious

i hope this will help new xda members like me...

[LG Optimus G (International)] Ahmed Xperia p:
What I've noticed is many issues being reported are in F180 K devices . S & L versions are easy to convert whereas K version users are getting stuck up somewhere in the process .

Do you have E F S backup?

hi thanks. No i didnt do the EFS backup, only realised it after i had flashed with E97510f.kdz. i tried everything even going back to stock f180k10k. even downloaded the newwer kdz f18020o.kkdz. Nothing, it either says no service or service disabled. if i flash the e975 kdz it telss me that the fone is permanetly locked and cant be unloced on the service menu. tried flashind all the basebands a thousand times with no luck. recently tried the f180l baseband also but with no luck.

Update. I flashed stock f180k10k, did a hard reset (at this point fone still saying no network, service disabled ). Rooted the foot, installed freegee, did a backup of efs(don't know if it was going to help anything since its still not connecting to any network even on stock rom). Copied my efs to my pc.i then installed open euro e9710h. Did a hard reset. Rooted ,installed freegee, restored efs back on fone, flashed f180k modem but still nothing done saying network disabled. Also tried flashing f180l modem but no hope. 2945#*975* tells me fone is permanently locked cant be unlocked.When u put a sim in the imei and serial number disappear but are shown when there is no sim. Any more ideas??? Or im done. I think the efs are screwed here.just wish if i new i would have backed up my efs when it was still working.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Ahmed Xperia p:

have you flashed an E975 kdz already? if not yet, can you do me a favor by flashing an E975 ROM via Recovery & not a kdz via flashtool.

there are a lot of recovery flashable ROMs in the dev thread. savvyrom & epsilon are two.

you may also try to flash kitkat ROMS if you wish to.

thanks in advance.

e977 here, can i fix my network this way too? (panama)

I recently moved to panama, and I bought an optimus g here. Its the e977 version and after unlocking, rooting, installing cm10.2 and Gapps JB everything works but my mobile data. I tried esf backup before installing cm and restore after with freegee but network still doesn't work (phonecalls work, data doesn't). I am really limited for internet and time right now, so can you tell me if there's a chance of the solution on page two working for me? I'll restore a stock backup for now because I need mobile data.

what can i do to fix this? Thank you very much! :crying:
[LG Optimus G (International)] AhsonAli:

Flashed my phone with the 180k baseband but didnt work. Still shows no Service
[LG Optimus G (International)] ClarkOwen:
My F180L's sim is recognised, I can text and receive and make calls but the thing is that Edge/2G/3G/LTE is not working. I use TM (Philippines) simcard. Anyone has the same issue? Any fixes?

Thanks.

As for flashing baseband and efs, I already did that but still no 3G. Signal is fine but no 3G
[LG Optimus G (International)] Murshad007:
Koreans Sets don't have Edge...

And the procedure to enable Edge is very long and risky..

To Get GPRS, 3G and LTE you should have correct APN settings and in coverage area.

Change your network mode to 9. Aka LTE WCDMA GSM
[LG Optimus G (International)] ClarkOwen:
How will you know the correct baseband frequencies for F180l?

It seems like it uses LTE 850 instead of LTE 800.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Murshad007:
Yes, That's the restriction in L model.

You should know the frequencies of Your network provider.
[LG Optimus G (International)] ClarkOwen:
What are the frequency bands for the LG Optimus G F180L for 3G and HSDPA?
[LG Optimus G (International)] Murshad007:
You should select Auto or ur network provider Bands
[LG Optimus G (International)] ClarkOwen:
How do I get to that Band Selection settings?

The thing is, I want to know if whether the frequencies of the F180L will match my service provider's frequency. Especially in LTE and 3G/HSDPA.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Murshad007:
3845#*180#

Go to LTE settings and And then Band selection..

Reboot required.

And you should have correct APN settings from your provider
[LG Optimus G (International)] ClarkOwen:
Does not work for me. It says "Invalid MMI Code"
[LG Optimus G (International)] Murshad007:
Use 5457#*180#
[LG Optimus G (International)] ClarkOwen:
3845#*975# works for me but I don't see a LTE settings. I see LTE-Only then when I touch it, only RAT Baseband and LTE Baseband pops up
[LG Optimus G (International)] Murshad007:
Yes, Set Network mode and Band selection from there. After reboot. Check that settings stick
[LG Optimus G (International)] ClarkOwen:
Does LG Optimus G F180L have 3G or HSDPA+? What is the frequency for 3G and HSDPA+?
[LG Optimus G (International)] Murshad007:
F180L have 2G 850 900 1800 1900

3G 900 2100

LTE 850
[LG Optimus G (International)] ClarkOwen:
Wow finally. Thank you so much. Seems like LTE is out of the question then, oh well, 3G will have to do.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Murshad007:
F180K have LTE1800

F180S have LTE 850 1800

Don't know that its a Hardware restriction or software disabled.

Some persons have changed successfully to E975 and some also flashed other Korean carrier modem on their device.

But I am not recommending it to Novice users. You may be end up in corrupted EFS or Null IMEI..

Don't have My F180L any more. So I can't experiment myself to find out
[LG Optimus G (International)] ClarkOwen:
Yeah sadly I didn't really know about frequencies before I bought my F180L.

Its fine, this is still one decent phone and I'm liking it a lot.
[LG Optimus G (International)] Murshad007:
May Be If I get hands on F180L. I will play with F180K or F180S modem. And check frequencies...

By the on which country and net work your are? At what Frequencies your Current network Provider Works?
[LG Optimus G (International)] ClarkOwen:
I am currently in Philippines and the only service provider that allows LTE 850 is 'Smart' but I am using 'Globe' so I can't really use LTE.

But I am only here for some months and will be returning to UAE which provides LTE 1800 and 2600 but sadly I still won't be able to use LTE with my F180L.

Thanks, hopefully I'll find a way to at least make it LTE 1800
[LG Optimus G (International)] ClarkOwen:
I have a newer F180 with the letter G in the back, what model is it? S or K?

I have got the phone already converted to E975 with working mobile network and openlined but it is still in 4.1.2 JB Stock rom, rooted and unlocked bootloader with CWM recovery. Do you think it will work if I flash the ARTMOD 5.4 ROM? Wont my mobile network or IMEI be affected by it?

Thanks
[LG Optimus G (International)] Kasura Dinith:
Same problem here... this is how the story begings;

i got my f180 from korea , when im using it in sri lanka the network always gets disappeared for a moment and reconnect , it was like that even i was using data or not , even cant make a call it always got disconnected .

Hi. I just wanted to know if most of us mega users use a screen protector. Which kind do you use matte or clear?

Also is the screen scratch resistant?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] gx3k:
The Mega uses tempered glass so it should be scratch resistant but like all screens even Gorilla glass, it scratches and breaks no matter what the manufacturers say. I always use clear screen protectors as matte ones tend to reduce brightness and doesn't feel smooth.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Troute:
Do the maths, even if the screen is tough it's always possible to scratch it and it's a lot cheaper to change a protector than the glass. I prefer matte or semi matte myself, anti reflective. They do make the screen look a bit grainy but I prefer that to seeing everything reflected in the screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Jamio1988:
I personally use a full case (OtterBox Defender). You can never be too careful with a screen in general, especially when it's this large.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] jimmbomb:

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] waynester21:
I bought a pack of 10 clear screen protectors off eBay for £1.89 and I couldn't for the life of me get it perfect! Wasted 7 cos they had bubbles on with tiny specs of dust on the screen but on the 8th it wasn't so bad. Still a few bubbles but better than the rest haha OCD sucks
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] cheyenne:
Tempered glass, but which one - Gorilla Glass or not? If not, who is manufacturer?

& Tempered glass is:

- difficult to scratch with knife, but simply with sand or another kind of abrasive.

- easy to break
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] zcink:
This is my 7th high end smartphone.

Never use any screen protectors.

I like the feel of the phone totally naked.

Don't even use a case. I know it is possible to scratch or break the screen but never have.

Just slide the phone in my pocket and go.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] shayneflashindaily:
Well i believe its a must ....just in case.... Don't wanna upgrade and try to sell your scratched screened mega lol...

I find it quite important to have a screen protector on this huge phone. I'm using iSmooth clear protector. It's cheap, but the quality seems decent. Scratch free after a week now. It does have little rainbow effect but 99% of the time you won't see it.

I got it Amazon for $10 (pack of three). Dust tapes are included, and they help a lot!
