I did a little research meanwhile, cause I'm not sure you can install an OTA manually from stock recovery. Haven't found anything yet.

You could try it manually, but I cannot guarantee it would work. I think it's hard to damage your device, cause you are locked and S-ON.

You can access a menu in recovery by pressing volume-up and power.

It was initially written to be put on the CM wiki to have the instructions there. I made it very detailed and specific with everything contained within it, so I figured it would be good for beginners and other users alike. Another reason is that I noticed the Canadian E971/3 didn't have a guide in that section. Since it applied to the E970 as well, I thought I'd share it.

Does this mean

ATT Optimus G Roms work on Canadian Optims Gs?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] hv6478:
Yup. They seem to be identical except for NFC. YMMV of course but all should be well. Just always back up! Make sure you flash the NFC fix after installing an AT&T ROM to make it work and to ensure you don't get bad battery drainage.

Hello guys,

Thanks for the guide. However I am having trouble getting my device recognized by the program. I have downloaded the files in order, including the LG drivers. I have only rooted phones the old school way on a g1 and a g2x from t-mobile.

EDIT: Sorry, I had forgot to have USB debugging enabled. Brand new phone and I forgot to enable it.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] jnhsd0319:
Hello, sorry to bother you again :P

I was just wondering if international optimus G roms can be flashed or is it just AT&T roms?

Also do you have a link to NFC fix?

Thank you so much!
[AT&T LG Optimus G] hv6478:
Not a bother at all!

Make sure you do NOT flash any international ROMs, made for E975 for example. They are not compatible.

NFC fix is here. I have added it to the OP.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] jnhsd0319:
Thank you so much for the answer.:good::good:

Ive been looking thoroughly in the forum to root/install custom roms for my phone. Just being really careful before hand because Im worried about my warranty.

Anyways

May I ask you another question? you seem to know your stuff and helpful :laugh:

If its ok, I was wondering if I can remove root and relock the bootloader if i flash a kdz file for my phone.

Is flashing kdz only changing the ROM or does it literally reset the device back to original factory option? (for warranty service)

Thank you and have a nice day!
[AT&T LG Optimus G] hv6478:
No problem!

The KDZ method WILL relock everything and bring it back basically to a factory phone. Just make sure you are using the correct KDZ file for your phone and you follow all instructions fully.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] hv6478:
So sorry for late reply.

In your case, you actually need to follow the entire method in the original post as it seems. If you're still on stock firmware, you need to unlock before you can install any custom software.

Thanks to LLabTooFer for this impressive ROM.

A little more help is required to get this installed on my HTC One M7.

At present I have RevolutionHD installed on the HTC One M7 it is rooted and unlocked via HTCDev.

I have downloaded the MaximusHD ROM copied it over to my SD card and installed it via recovery>install zip from sd card etc. USB Debugging is enabled. Install goes ahead and finishes with a fresh new 4.3 update.

Here's the but, MaximusHD is provided as rooted but after my install I lose root. If I use Root Checker from PlayStore it tells me that I have no root access and that it is against Google policy. This message appears in a band at the top of Root Chacker display.

If I now go back to RevolutionHD, (good job I backed up) root access is granted and shows via Root Checker.

[General Questions and Answers] linuxlol:
Is a factory reset enough when selling a phone? Many used phones on websites like craigslist.

I wonder how much these people care about data?

I have been able to retrieve data that is years old from hard drives with very simple programs. Most enthusiasts will tell you reformatting is not enough. A 3 pass method is what will do the trick.

But what about on a smartphone? Is there such a way to write over the storage with 0's ?

How many here believe a factory reset is enough?

factory reset

format your sd card if any

[General Questions and Answers] RaZ0R4334:
Stock ROM + erase all data = new phone ::D
[General Questions and Answers] SimonTS:
No it isn't. Any data on the internal system can be recovered as it is not possible to carry out a multi write on it. There was a puritan around a while ago that claimed to do multi pass wipe of files but it disappeared about a year ago, can't even remember what it was called now.

Your average user won't be able to recover anything after a full wrote and reinstall - factory reset is no good - but a forensics expert can do so easily.

if the original soft it is better to delete yourself what you can do then wipe with recovery and check because it's important.

We all know that N4 has a very bad camera..specially in low light photos..photos have very much dots..They seems good on mobile but when zoomed even a little its pathetic.

Was anyone able to find out what the issue is..? is it software or hardware..?

If its software related than is there any solution..?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Podmantastic:
Low light noise, no tap to snap picture, horrendous flash photos.

It's just not as good as the Galaxy S2+ I was going to sell.

The camera is the biggest disappointment for me as a one week N4 owner. I'm seriously considering selling the phone.

I tried the Moto X apk, which seemed to be a little better on the noise front, but I can't live with that aspect ratio. "Focal" was even worse than the stock camera.

After reading around the subject, the only thing I've that gives me any hope is someone suggested using Snap Camera HDR app and fixing the ISO at 100. I'll be giving it a try in the hope of reducing noise in the pictures my N4 makes. Ta-ta, PmT

Hi,

I am not sure if this question has been asked before as I could not find anything similar here. If it has already been asked, then I would request the moderators to please point me there.

I have an AT&T Optimus G Pro (E980). It was running the stock rom (AT&T E980AT V10g). I then flashed the value pack from AT&T (AT&T E980AT V10k) which I downloaded by following the download link provided in thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2438088

The flashing tool I used is the one that required the .tot file and the .dll file. Flashing was a success.

I found the value pack 10k to be laggy compared to the stock 10g. So, I wanted to try out a new rom and flashed a Korean one (SKT/SK TELECOM(KOREA) F240S V10w). I did that using the flash tool and the kdz file given in the same thread as stated above. Flashing was a success.

Now, I want to return again to the AT&T stock (AT&T E980AT V10g). But, when I am using the .tot file and the .dll file, the flashing tool is showing an error something about the device model being different and that I should check the .tot and .dll file. I cannot paste the exact error message right now as I am not at my desk but I can paste it later, if required.

Do I need to have a kdz file of the stock to carry out the flashing ? If yes, then where to find it as the stock firmware thread in this forum lists only the zipped up .tot for the AT&T stock rom.

Else, do I need a .dll for the F240S model and then use it along with the stock E980AT firmware to flash ? If yes, then where can I find the .dll file ?

Thanks for taking the time to read this post and thanks for helping out :) :) This can serve as a reference to someone who is looking for the same answer.

Regards.
