in the guide he is saying he isnt sure it will work for 4.0.3 versions and this is my version :S any way to upgrade to 4.0.4 ?

Okey these guides will work for you.
The first guide will update your base firmware to V20A_Rooted it will update your 4.0.3 to 4.1.2, and will get you a unlocked bootloader and cwm installed.
After you installed the V20A base firmware you go to the Second guide.
That guide will install Android 4.1.2 CLEAN and with no keyboard errors, its all working fine and i am using it to.

thank you too much but one last question if anything went wrong can i return my phone to the way before i updated it with this guide or there is no way to install again official firmware ?

If you want to keep your files you will need to copy them to your pc.
Use Titaniumbackup to update apps.
You can backup your contacts/music etc to your External sdcard.
And if there is something going wrong and you want to go back there are unbrick guides enough i will help you if anything will go wrong. But i did everything and its working very good.
If you need any help ask me.
Edit: List of all firmwares: http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=12 this list contains all versions, so if anything is going wrong with v20a its easy to go back to V10L ore V10A/V10B

[Q] Which baseband for LG Optimus L7 (P705)?

Hi Everyone,
I would like to flash a V20 baseband on my Australian P705 as I'd like to upgrade soon to one of the custom JB 4.3.
I am currently on Slimbean 4.1.2 with baseband V10e.
I don't want to brick my phone or have any issue with it by flashing the wrong baseband on it so could someone please advise which V20 baseband would be the one to use on my phone from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2335273
Also, I was wondering if I flash a V20 baseband, could I go back to V10 if needed?
Thank you for your help!
And sorry, I would have posted the question on the thread above but I am a new member and restricted in the thread I can post in!

Anyone would have an idea? I just really don't want to use all signal!
Thanks!

I risked myself to install V20e baseband.
I had signal from my phone provider but in "About Phone", in the Baseband line I had "RRO" so not sure why or what it means.
I also installed Slimbean 4.3 which didn't seem really stable and I lost root privileges in the process and couldn't find a way to root a LG L7 using JB 4.3 so I went back on baseband V10 and Slimbean 4.1.2 until we get a more stable JB 4.3.
I'll keep you up to date if I find a working solution.

Yeah I knew that, it's just between JB 4.1 and JB 4.3, we need to upgrade the baseband from V10 to V20 and there are plenty of V10 versions and plenty of V20 versions with different letters (e.g. V20a, V20e,...) and I wasn't sure whether I could use any of them without any trouble or not.
I tried V20e temporarily on JB 4.3, I could still get signal from my phone provider but the baseband didn't seem to be properly recognized in "About Phone".

Hey mate, any luck with this? I'm in the same boat as you, except I haven't tried any of the various v20's yet... I'm on v10e also, so logic says I should upgrade to v20e - but there even two of these - one says "PL" and the other for "GBR"... I'm with Vodafone AU and have no idea... I don't want to brick and am a little worried :/

Hey mate,
I think I upgraded for V20a but I can't remember. Baseband is just showing RRO in About Phone but it's working with Optus in Australia and overseas.
I remember I had to upgrade the Baseband first before upgrading Android otherwise it didn't work!
I am also using Slimbean 4.3 Beta 5.2.
It's working OK.
To be honest, don't bother, it's not worth it playing with custom ROMs!
At least not for the L7!
Battery life is even worse than out of the box (even with Greenify), features from newer versions of Android don't work because this phone is not compatible with them (I'm thinking of Photosphere which was the main reason I wanted to upgrade)
In my opinion it's just a waste of time! I'll try a custom ROM of KitKat when stable but if it just keeps getting worse on my L7, I'm just gonna go back to stock!

Thanks. I ended up trying the v20e (both of them) with Prime KitKat rom. I installed all this before I read your reply and all is good - except for the network reception. I'll go back and try the v20a now. This phone isn't my daily driver, just a mess about so I'm keen to try KitKat out on it while I wait for OTA on my Note 3. So far, other than the current mobile data issue, this Prime 4.4.2 rom seems pretty good Thanks again

Need some advices please.

Hello , Now i tryed 2-3 roms , And i really like kitkat ones, 4.4.2 so i would rly want another one cause of some lack of some stuff, Currently im running droidkang, But i cant seem to get LTE up and running, I would like a new kitkat room with lte included, And if i flash another 4.4.2 do i need to KDZ first or just the normal wiping ?? Thanks

auto rotate

i have tried to search for a solution but failed, my auto rotate stopped working for all stock roms but works for aosp roms and im really confused why this is happening :S any solutions?
it used to work fine but then i sortof bricked by phone and then flashed all these files http://downloads.codefi.re/autoprime/LG/LG_G2/D802/Stock_Firmware/10b_EUR_16G_partitions using adb sideload and then i got this problem
i have a lg g2 D802

Why dont you ask in the help section?

Can you use kdz method to flash to KitKat?

now i did that but i dont know which version to flash so i installed indian cause im in india right now and the double tap to switch on doesnt work and there is no kitkat for indian phones so i tried installing other country package and the data wouldnt work :/ i know i have a D802 but i dont know what im doing wrong

Hello, next time post your question in Q&A or some helpthread cause this doesn't belong really in general.
I think that if your phone's auto rotate doesnt work on stock based roms but it works on aosp based roms then it isnt an hardware fault but you have to flash the right modem/radio or if you want complete stock then flash kdz.

Why do you need stock rom if there are dozens of nice custom roms?

Hi, really thanks for the support. Now I have LP F320L30D, i flashed it with KDZ guide. If i would go back to Kitkat (when it was when i bought it) what should i do? A simply flash with KDZ file like i did for LP? If so do i need to root + twrp before the kitkat installation for a fresh install rom by cleaning cache,dalvik etc or is enough to click CSE install by KDZ program?

If you want to go back to kitkat stock, just kdz back to it. No need to root or clean any cache. Just use the tool , download the kdz file and flash it via tool.

I asked that, because i have a problem about the mic during calls. I mean if i call or someone call me, the person does not hear me or hear my voce really really really low. Should be a software issues. I disabled "ok google" but nothing.

Are you having this particular issue on lollipop stock or all the rom your tried?
If its software issue, you can switch a rom and see if it gets resolved.

I had this issues like 4 days after i updated via OTA the Kitkat version that was stock (21Y) for another Kitkat version (22k) if i remember well. To be honest, dunno if this could be the problem. I though (hey, maybe this OTA ****ed me) so i changed the rom into 30D stock with KDZ method so i installed Lollipop. Now i choose to come back to Kitkat Stock maybe i can fix this. By the way in the xda server there are located 3x firmware for my model (F320L) so korean model
F320L21V_00
Korea LG U+ Kitkat F320L21P
LG u+ F320L11G
Which one should i take? In the original was called U+ 100% LTE.

If so then take the second one that says U+ and its a korean variant.
Honestly i dont own this variant so i know little much about these since i haven't performed any flash. I only own verizon hence i mostly help people based on successfully performing those actions by myself. I don't like to give you any directions without actually performing it irl so you choose which one is for your variant.
And if you ever want to go back to stock , just flash kdz. That would be all.
Good luck!
