[Q] [V490] Has anyone updated the g tab 8 lte to lollipop? - G Pad 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I'm from Romania and everytime I check for new firmware in settings it doesn't find anything. Has anyone updated his V490 to lollipop? Any idea how to get the kdz file to update manually?

try using lg pc suite.
to see if there a kdz for ur variant and country follow this link (but change "XXXX" to ur imei/csn, check it under settings/hardware info):
http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=XXXX
then follow the link below this line to download the kdz: <sw_url>

Thanks, for me shows version V49010B_00, so I guess I'll have to wait a little more because it's bought from Orange and it will surely take a long time. Can you provide the lollipop kdz link for your region so I could flash it manually?

Determining corect TOT file based on SN?

Hi all
Is there a way to confirm the E988's intended country based on the Serial Number?
I want to be able to match the right TOT file with my phone.
When I bought the phone I was told it was an overseas model, I just don't know from which country
thanks
regards

Try this tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2683691
If you have your IMEI you can use the tool above or you can use this link: http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=. Just put your IMEI after the equals sign. This page will return some info including the most recent .kdz file for your phone. Post all of the info here and I'll tell you what country your phone is from. JUST REMOVE THE IMEI FROM THE INFO FIRST.
The E988 doesn't have an official TOT file because it is carrier unlocked. However, a .kdz file can be used in exactly the same way. I have seen an unofficial TOT file on baidu but haven't tried it so I don't know if it works.
If you want to flash the .kdz use this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44983841&postcount=1

Yes, this is your firmware. If you follow the guide I linked you should easily be able to flash it.
By the way, it looks like your model doesn't have the kit Kat update yet.

Yes no kitkat up to now.
Regarding the guide, unfornunatelly is the only one that I can found. And no any link working or step by step instructions.
Is there another one?
Many thks

Hmm I remember having problems downloading the files and I couldn't find them anywhere else.
I think I still have them on my computer but I won't be able to upload them until tomorrow.

Firmware updates

Using an unbranded 32gb d855 in the UK. Got no ota update from eur 10a so flashed v10f. Now on v10f global.
Questions...
Modem appears to be the same, so don't kdl files include modem/radio's?
What is the best firmware to be on, EUR or global? Does it even matter?
How do I know if firmware is for web d855?
Man, do I need custom recovery, screwed the phone and had to start all over sigh!
Thanks

I'm not sure that everybody agrees with me but I think your original carrier stuff is in data/.OP which is not touched by a kdz flash and I believe that they are all the same.
how to reflash

you download the 10c update for you device (see kdz tread in general) and flash it with THIS
just a suggestion don'tt flash 10c but go with 10E if available for your device(same model number)

Thanks much !!
I am completely newbe here, could you please also give me the link to find a D855 10E file ?
My model suffix is A6FR (france?) does that mean there is no 10E ?
or should find another country 10E? I am ok taking anything that will work
and after 1.5 hours of digging helplessly would appreciate if you can help me finding the proper 10E (if there is one).
thanks much much !
Thanks !

Official LG E975 4.4.2 Kitkat ROM

how many of u need the Official LG E975 4.4.2 ROM?
i have downloaded it somehow...a 980mb kdz file. and it works. its a U.S ROM.
:victory:
one more thing if anyone is interested..
lemme know t best site for uploading the kdz file..
or might hav to do as googledrive or dropbox or box
i'd like to try please.
you can use mega.co.nz or google drive.
If I flash SFR Rom on my GF E977-it will be sim locked ? I ask that because it's the only Rom with LTE band 2600 mhz that I could donload from lg phone firmware. There's some way to flash modem without custom recovery ?
I'm a Brazilian without English Course, sorry and be comprehensive
Yes please. Google drive would probably be the easiest upload. Then go to "share" and share with anyone that has the link. They will give you a link, post that in your OP.

It might be a good to start reading up about rooting your phone, look in the General forum for many usefull threads. XDA is not the place that is meant for spoonfeeding and roomservice If you have questions after that feel free to ask them but don`t expect others to solve your problem.

Getting 6.0.1 by changing region in Singapore?

Hi,
I just got a tab-s in Singapore which is stuck at 5.0.2. After a bit of firmware hunting it seems like 6.0.1 was never released here. What is the best way to update to marshmallow? Download a firmware or change my region to some other country? Can you please also provide a howto for the second one. All firmware sites I have tried to get 6.0.1 are horribly slow.
Thanks!

Singapore/the rest of sea got the update on october. If you root your device it wont update by OTA. you need to update manually. Use this website fw.updato.com and download your fimrware. this site will download fast.
