I don't understand why they would disable a capability of the device with a software update. :what:

---------- Post added at 10:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 PM ----------

Hopefully it's an oversight which will be quickly rectified.
[LG G Pro 2] musicmadmac:
Let's hope they do sort it quickly, I'm having a few problems with my device now. I may need to use a backup phone until this is sorted. I have sent an email to LG. I would give up but this device is fantastic.
[LG G Pro 2] bobsie41:
Let me know how you get on and I would be interested in what other issues that you have. I don't have any and I am on the same device/network as you.

We could probably re-enable lte from the hidden settings menu if we could find out the correct number to dial for this and, if not, root and an amendment in the build prop would probably work but, root looks a bit complicated at the moment. In saying this, I don't see why we should have to be addressing this ourselves but I don't expect this is something EE will assist with as this device is not for our network/country officially.
[LG G Pro 2] musicmadmac:
Here we go, type 5457#*838# or 5457#*350# on your dialer then Network Mode>Global + LTE, good luck. This is the hidden service menu, the solution is temporary as you have to apply the setting again whenever you restart the phone or try to access the mobile networks menu in settings. I have contacted LG about this issue but hope this temporary solution helps. Has anyone else had this issue?

New 32GB LG G Pro 2 white device turned up today, upgraded to D83810e but won't be upgrading to D83810f this time. Lesson learn't!
[LG G Pro 2] guitarhero72:
It's incredible...LG does not take measures for latest firmware D83810F which kills the 4G LTE option!:mad: is very serious!
[LG G Pro 2] musicmadmac:
I've reported this to LG Hong Kong with the exact details of the issue, I will leave an update here if they come back with anything useful. Yes this is serious, I've reset my device and put it in the drawer with everything else I don't use.
[LG G Pro 2] guitarhero72:
My friend .... I dont think it will answer .. been a week and did nothing, mistake beginners...are very disappointed
[LG G Pro 2] kelvintisw:
Well, as usual like all companies...! :eek:

We have to wait for the finger-pointing war between departments within LG to stop before we get an answer and a fix from LG!:rolleyes:

No engineer or department wanna take the blame for such screwed-up-ass!:p

Sounds so familiar...days in, days out!:silly:
[LG G Pro 2] musicmadmac:
I think you're both right, I'm probably wasting my time but at least we've got a temporary fix for now, very annoying that someone didn't spot such an obvious bug at LG!
[LG G Pro 2] guitarhero72:
maybe in Taiwan are more stupid than Korean?? Only the TWN firmware is 10f... every other firmware are 10e...
[LG G Pro 2] kelvintisw:
Ant latest firmware update from any country since May 2014?:confused:
[LG G Pro 2] kelvintisw:
Korean set has an update to 10o.. :)

Anyone else?:confused:
[LG G Pro 2] xenocide976:
Hi there!

i'm the Korean set. Hahaha

For me the change was also "Enhancements: Apps" which is about 100mb too

Root retained. Still waiting for custom recovery...

flashlight not work!

hi (sorry for my English)

after updating to D83810f my phone works normally but after tow days, its flashlight doesn't work. It would be very kind of you if send me a guidance. :crying:
[LG G Pro 2] vincento76:
darn... mine is a SG set 32GB. Already rooted using the guide provided by KENYSL

Can anyone advise how to go about updating the rooted 10a to 10b?
[LG G Pro 2] mosh11:
i have a 10b software and when I try to update , it says Software up to date, aren't there further updates and why I am not getting them ?
[LG G Pro 2] kongming:
Use LG software to update from 10a to 10b using PC, then root again. Tested and works for me.
[LG G Pro 2] vincento76:
Hi. When you said using LG software to update 10a to 10b, are you referring to use LG PC Suite to update the firmware?

Afterwhich using iroot25 to root it??
[LG G Pro 2] kongming:
I'm using LG mobile support tool to update and root with this:

After the bad update 10f (TWN-Taiwan version) on 6 June (I remind everyone that eliminated option LTE), this smartphone has been forgotten by LG LG ... great device but bad LG.
[LG G Pro 2] guitarhero72:
I talked to a guy in taiwan and its firmware 10F has lte option (as picture sent by him). Now I think the problem with this firmware is for us Europeans ... I think we're screwed :crying:
[LG G Pro 2] mosh11:
Guys, why am I not getting the software updates after 10b ? Whenever I check for updates , It says your OS is up to date . I tried updating via phone and via lg pc suite but no good
[LG G Pro 2] guitarhero72:
Depends on the origin of your smartphone, nothing could be simpler. just as happens (for example with samsung) in Europe (firmware for germany, italy, french etc etc.) also in the East is the same thing.

............You're lucky to have the 10b.......... believe me .................
[LG G Pro 2] mosh11:
Sorry i don't get it , soft updates should be the same for all the phones with the same origin ( in my case Singapore)
[LG G Pro 2] guitarhero72:
I mean that the update of firmware can comes up for first in Taiwan next time could comes out for first in Singapore. Don't depends from the origin but from LG's decision where and when launch it.
[LG G Pro 2] mosh11:
But singapore got the 10d update but I can't get it. Is it because I'm using the phone in Egypt?
[LG G Pro 2] guitarhero72:
No..its without difference where u are using your phone. For example: i've downloaded the upgrade in Italy even if software is for Taiwan, so also you shouldn't have any problem. in my opinion it is only a matter of time.
[LG G Pro 2] DJCrapsody:
As previously mentioned, there is NO 10D update on the Singapore's D838.
[LG G Pro 2] Planet X:
My D838 open_SG device has LTE lost with the B update as well. I have tried to enable it within service menu and it works but 4G seems very slow then. There is another option to choose LTE band in the service menu but which should I choose? I guess it's trial and error for me. I use T-Mobile in the Netherlands b.t.w.
[LG G Pro 2] DJCrapsody:
Not a problem for me in Singapore. LTE works fine by default after the update.
[LG G Pro 2] vikphiller:
For all those who lost the LTE option after 10F update, please try this.

As per the following link, you can resolve the problem by using Build Prop Editor. Just change the value of "ro.telephony.default_network" from 9 to 13

http://translate.googleusercontent....st=500&usg=ALkJrhgdUkwq5_SAOPvsd5Ie9COMnSho4g

Please confirm if it worked or not. You must be rooted for using this application.
[LG G Pro 2] Planet X:
I have checked my Build.prop and it's two lines there with telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice the first has the value 1 and the second line has vale 0. For me that means it gets first enabled and then immediately disabled. May be we should switch both on or delete the line with 0? If I open the Build.prop with a text editor I see that in the first part it should be enabled and later below it has been disabled after 10th of May which is the date of 10B .

And this line "ro.telephony.default_network=9" is commented with #. So it doesn't load.

But why are there differences between Build.prop files on the same device? Why has a European user a different prop than a Singaporean user on the same device? Even with the same software?
[LG G Pro 2] alireza_asol:
Hi

Do you noticed any camera improvement after this updates?
[LG G Pro 2] Planet X:
Edit: I have tested it. You have to uncomment the line "# ro.telephony.default_network=9" and then disable the "telephony.lteOnCdmaDevice=0" with putting a # in front of it. By the way the easiest way to to edit your build.prop and not brick your phone is to copy it to Downloads directory on Sdcard and copy and edit it from your PC or Mac. Then put it back to your phone and copy it with Root Explorer to system directory and change the Permissions to rw -r -r like it has been before editing. Then reboot your phone and enjoy the GSM/CDMA/LTE auto setting in Network settings menu.

My G Pro 2 running on version D83810b only..Check update using phone, it said latest software version..

Use LG Mobile Support Tool it said latest too..

When I first got my phone, it was D83810a. D83810b already installed for more than 2 months..:crying:
[LG G Pro 2] davasaurous:
I've got a D838 running 10b with no available updates, so I'm guessing mine is Singaporean. Anyone rooted this one? I tried towel root with no luck (after the update to 10b).

How'd you do it if you have a rooted 10b Singaporean g pro 2?
[LG G Pro 2] Steven6489:
No problem with towelroot in 10b..did you install SuperSU in Play Store? What error you got when you use towelroot? :confused:
[LG G Pro 2] davasaurous:
I get a device not supported error :( I'm on the 16gb if that's relevant but I doubt it. I'll grab a screen cap.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] hodgestl:
Team, my wife has a Note II that is stock all the way. She never accepted the OTA update to 4.3 and has been running 4.1.2 perfectly since last year. Three days ago, when she powered the phone on, it said "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue". The message said we had to go into Kies and try to recover. The phone will NOT enter stock recovery mode. It will go into download mode only.

I tried to use KIES, but Kies says the device version is not upgradeable. I took it to the store and they told me to come home and use Odin. So my wife decided since it couldn't be restored to her old phone we might as well update to 4.3 (booloader issues, I know !) I used Odin 3.07 using the MK7 version of 4.3 from last Dec, it took 10 minutes through modem, system etc. Then says FAIL. When I try to redo the Odin, it says PIT file missing or something like that.

Phone still won't work, and I have failed with Kies, local store, and Odin. I don't know what to do but she needs her phone. This phone bricked itself Sunday morning! Thank you in advance for any help. We don't need to buy a new phone. This one is only a year old.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ciphercodes:
Flashing stock MK7 via odin should not have any issues. Can you double check the file you downloaded is indeed MK7 ?

Is the phone on 4.3 bootloader ? If download mode shows KNOX then yes it is.

You can also try to restore the phone using KIES emergency and then flash MK7 via odin.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] hodgestl:
Thanks for the reply. Download mode shows shows the following:

Odin mode

Product Name :

Custom Binary Download: No

Current Binary : Samsung Official

System Status: Custom (BTW, this said Normal before my Odin attempt)

The word KNOX does not appear anywhere on the Download mode screen.

Kies syas the current firmware is not upgradable. The phone will not actually connect in Kies. I try Emergency restore and put in model and S/N but its says can't upgrade. Kies won't connect to phone in normal mode.

Thanks for any possible ideas you can come up with.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Coug76:
If you can get into recovery and do a factory reset (format data and cache) then reboot and see if that will work. Make certain the SDcard is out of the phone when you format.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ciphercodes:
The phone is still on 4.1.2 bootloader. I would advise to flash stock T889UVBMD1 from sammobile.

Or

If you want a rooted version you can flash MrRobinson's root 66 ROM.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] hodgestl:
Coug, thansk for the resposnse, but I can't get into recovery or just a boot up. Download (Odin) Mode is the only thing that is presently working.

Cipher, thank you also. Those are the two stock firmwares I have attempted. Nothing else.

I guess it may be hard-bricked, but I sure thought that was pretty rare.

Thanks again to you both for taking the time. If you have any more thoughts, I would sure be interested in hearing them. Thanks again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Coug76:
Try giving the UVALJ1 root66 a try. I had a similar situation where I Odined that 2x and it reset my file system which had gotten corrupted. I was about to throw my hands up after flashing MB1 and another one as well. I figured that the original factory flash image would have the best chance of success.

Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] hodgestl:
Sounds like a good idea. I have tried Odin 3.07 and 3.09 on this effort up till now. Do you think I should look for an older copy of Odin too? Or just the older tar file from Mr. R?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Coug76:
I use 3.07. If that doesn't work give Heimdall a try. It *could* be a bit more stable.

Here is the PIT file I had posted when my phone was still on 4.1.2.

Link: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=48398405&postcount=205

Download the attached file and make sure to change file extension from .txt to .pit.

Start ODIN, click PIT and browse to this pit file.

Make sure the Re-Partition box is checked.

Then under PDA load your T889UVBMD1 tar.md5 file and click start.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] hodgestl:
Thank you. That PIT file should be exactly what I am looking for, since that is the message I am getting now. Just one last question, please. Shoukld I do the PIT file and then the TAR file in two separate Odin events? Or could I put the PIT in the Pit line and the TAR in the Pda line, click the re-partition box and do it as one Odin reflash?

I may try the PIT first, then come back and do the TAR second after the phone has repartitioned. I can't thank you enough.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] hodgestl:
I will stay with Odin, I think. I have never used Heimdall, and am a little intimidated by trying something different. Of course I don't guess I can hurt the phone any further at this point ! haha.

Thanks again for everything. You have been a great help.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ciphercodes:
It's up to you, if you feel comfortable you can try with pit file first and then try the tar.md5 file. Glad to help, Ai hope the phone starts working again.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] hodgestl:
Cipher, I think I am almost there. However, when I start Odin using the PIT file you provided, I have checked repartition, then entered the renamed TXT file with a PIT e4xtension. Odin starts normally, then says "Get PIT for Mapping" but it never continues. It doesn't fail, but it doesn't continue either. At the top of the Odin screen, in the area where it describes the current step, Odin says SET PARTITION, but never continues on past that point. I get no progress bar on either the PC screen or on the cell phone download screen. I think we are right on the edge of having this thing fixed but I am not quite there. Any ideas? Please?

Hi,

Does ODIN detect the device ? Does the ID:COM tab turns blue ?

You can try another PIT file posted by another user from here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52860121&postcount=39
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] hodgestl:
Yes, Odin is detecting the device just fine. The blue COM light comes on and gives me the com port number. Then in the running description, its says Added! which I have always taken to mean that Odin has successfullly connected to the device.

I leave the two check marks checked that are alerady there, then I also check the Re-Partition box. I add the PIT file from earlier (renamed with a PIT extension of course) to the PIT line.

When I click Start, Odin starts normally, finds the right instruxction, and above the blu com box, where it would say PASS at the very end, it syas SET PARTITION. The task descriptions in the lower left says Getting PIT file, and then ODIN stays there.

That lasted over 2 hours. I will try the new PIT file and see what happens this time. Thanks for the continued help and support. I really feel like we are just one tiny issue from getting this phone restored, but I can't quite get over the hump. I will let you know how I fare with the new PIT> Thanks again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ciphercodes:
Try without checking the re-partition checkbox and see if it works. It should not take more then few seconds if you are only uploading the pit file.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] hodgestl:
Will do. Just gets stuck at "Get PIT for mapping.." I will try without the re-partition checked and report back. Thank you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] hodgestl:
OK, when you select the PIT file using the Pit button, then Odin automatically checks the Re-Partition box. If you uncheck that box and try to proceed, I get the error message "No Binary is Selected." So it looks like I am kind of stuck. I have tried both of the PIT files. Both start normally, then get stuck (Permanently it appears) at the line "Get PIT for mapping.." I have tried just with the PIT only, and tried it with the ROM entered into the PDA button, and both give the same result.

I was very excited earlier today. I thought we (Really you) could save this phone. I feel like we are right on the edge, but the PIT load won't complete. Thanks for ideas.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ciphercodes:
If that does not work then we need to verify if the internal storage is fine. We can do that by flashing TWRP tar file using ODIN and then boot in to recovery then File manager and see if you can see or access any files on the internal storage.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] hodgestl:
sounds like a really good plan. I can get right on that. I only have another hour and a half this morn to work on this. Then it might be later this evening or tomorrow morn. But I am stilll forging ahead right now.

Thanks for what seems to me to be a brilliant idea! I will let you know.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] hodgestl:
Where do I put the TWRP file in Odin? There is no Recovery button. Do I put it in the PDA slot?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] hodgestl:
I can get right on that. I only have about 90 minutes left to work on this. Then it will have to be tonight or tomorrow morn. Thanks for a brilliant idea.

Where do I put the TWRP tar file in Odin? There is no specific recovery button. Do I put it in the PDA button or in the CSC button? I don't know . Sorry.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ciphercodes:
If you can see the internal storage, I would advise to format internal storage and then attempt to flash stock ROM via ODIN without the pit file first.

There are few other ways to manually fix the partitions by booting in to custom recovery and using adb but I have never tried them myself but we can try if everything else fails.

From what I know is that as long as the phone can boot in download mode it can be recovered unless the internal storage itself is corrupt.

Do you have adb set-up on your system ?

If yes then you can try to install TWRP via ADB

1) Download recovery image from here. http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/t03g/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.2-t03g.img

2) Copy/Push the image file to phone by first copying the image file in the directory where your adb.exe file is then press shift

+ right click and open command prompt here and then execute this command : adb push openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.2-t03g.img /sdcard

3) Once the file is copied on the phone's internal storage run this command to flash recovery: adb shell dd if=/sdcard/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.2-t03g.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p9

If this fails then we need to try the last resort of manually fixing the partitions.

Please note if you have already set adb in your environment variables then there is no need to copy the image file in adb.exe directory. I just listed the most simplest way of doing it.
