[Q] [L5] Problem flashing official Jelly Bean - Optimus L3, L5, L7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys I really need this so please help. I have CM10 flashed on my phone, but now after the official JB is out I want that ROM. There is no working zip of this ROM (wont recognize sim card) so i have to flash it through KDZ. Unfortunately, KDZ just wont recognize my phone (phone not found). I dont know if the problem is that Im using CM or it's my PC drivers. Can you please tell me how can I do this properly? Thank you.

First of all,in order to get your device recognized,you must enter it in emergency/download mode.CM can't be recognized just like stock Rom.
Just follow this guide.

when I do this then my phone just boots as normal into CM10... any ideas?
EDIT: I just wasn't fast enough, it seems. My restore still isn't working though, with the KDZ updater still not finding the phone...

The only way is to enter your phone in emergency mode...Well try to pull out the battery and connect your phone with a cable at your pc..before you connect it keep pressing vol+..
If it works your phone will boot in emergency mode...then you can flash via kdz. .
Give a try again,and inform me..

I've tried with emergency mode several times but recognizing the phone is mission impossible. Can you post a link with the official drivers, or something that could be the problem?

Download the official drivers from the LG website and it should work, also try different USB ports on your pc. I think installing the drivers fixed my issue.

What happened to my arc S?

Hello fellow xda forumers, i have a problem with my arc s. it starts like this, a few hours ago i unlocked my bootloader. Then after i unlocked it, i tried to flash a kernel to my arc using fastboot but i assumed it was failed since it took forever with *waiting for device* message . The problem is, after i did all those things, now i realised that my phone can't connect/install MTP driver when i plug in via usb and worst is, my home button is not functioning ! Could someone please help me fix this problem? i just got my arc S a few days ago, i'm so loss now

Have you checked USB debugging?
For drivers, try these.
And post in the correct section.

You can flash the kernel inside the package using fastboot and the ROM using CWM.

If you want to install CM7, which you have downloaded, you have to push kernel in your device by using the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img" inside fastboot folder.
Then boot into CWM and install *.zip file from sdcard.

Before flashing ROMs etc better get it working before and flash stock fw with FlashTool.
Also, there's a chance to kill the device when flashing custom stuff, so better do some research before starting without (much) knowledge.

Are you in APX mode? If not power off your device then hold Volume (-) + Power. The device screen should stay black but the home button light should turn on. If you are already in APX mode have you installed the nvflash drivers. If not put your device in APX mode then plug it in your computer and installed them. They can be found in rom op normally. Hope this help you.

When you connect it while being in APX mode it shoud be detected as APX in your icon tray or as NVIDIA USB Boot-recovery driver for Mobile devices into device manager. But you can reinstall them if in doubt it will only overwrite them. Also, I've did a mistake in the previous post, APX mode is VOL(-) + VOL(+) + POWER.

Plug in your device while in APX mode. Go into device manager. Find your device and open it. Go into the drivers tab. Click on update the drivers. A window will promt, in it, click on find drivers on my computer. It will ask you the path to the drivers so select where you uncompressed the drivers and it should install. Enjoy flashing new rom!

So this is probably honeycomb 3.2.1 ? I think you should try krook1's CM10 rom. This is jellybean and it run way better than stock honeycomb. You can check it right here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1825176. I really recommend you this rom as it is the more recent and bug free version. You simply use the nvflash version to start then you go into cwm and you flash the most up to date wich is v6.1 for now. Instruction and download are in the link.
This is what I tried

downgrading lg l7 p705 from 4.1.2 to 4.0.3

i have a lg l7 p705 4.1.2 and cant find a way of rooting it. so i am thinking of downgrading it back to 4.0.3, if possible. i am new to this thing and has never rooted a device. would appreciate if you can suggest me a way in a simpler language cause i did saw somethings for what i was looking for but couldnt understand what they were trying to tell
hi man ^^ go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2423376&highlight=downgrade
then click on the link and download the v10k rom (v10k is 4.0.3) and simply flash it using kdz flasher
after the installation you will have 4.0.3 with root and cwm recovery
but remember this: if,after the installation,the phone doesn't boot remove battery then put in the battery and enter in recovery mode,now wipe data and wipe cache and reboot your phone
is really simple
seriosly...you made very simple thanx a lot...one more thing..what does flashing mean and how do i enter recobery mode...it would be really helpful of u :thumbup:
Sent from my LG-P705 using xda app-developers app
for flashing i mean istalling rom using kdz program and to enter recovery mode u have to shutdown the phone and keep pressed vol+,vol-,home,and power button then when u see your phone vibrates release power button but keep pressed all the other buttons until u see the recovery

[Q] [URGENT] Need help accessing files on my Nexus 4!

Im in dire need of help here. I sold my phone through ebay today and have been rushing round to restore the phone to default. In the process I have wiped my phone of everything up to installing the factory 4.3 rom onto the phone.
Unfortunately, I cant access the phone via my computer! Ive tried installing drivers but I cant access the storage to put the rom onto the phone for me to install it and I'm tearing my hair out over this.
Please tell me theres a way to do this!
Thanks in advance!
PS. Windows 8.1, TWRP recovery.

You don't copy anything onto the phone... You flash it in fastboot. Plenty of threads about this.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
To restore the phone to stock you need to use fastboot, not flash through custom recovery, otherwise the phone still isn't stock and they won't receive updates.
Just follow these instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34552123
For Windows 8 to install the driver you need to reboot into advance mode and press F7 at the menu to disable driver signature, adb/fastboot and driver link in my signature.

If you flash any modem , make.sure it is compatible with the firmware version otherwise you will hard break you device!!.
One more thing ,,the moment you flash it ...your device will reboot to download mode , then in this point you have to hold the power button for few second till it turn off . After that turn it on , the Samsung logo will show up ....and it may take time untill it move to the mobile odin mode ,,,, just wait for the process...dont ever turn it off again otherwise you may soft break your device
Also mobile odin only work in stock kernel otherwise it will not detect your device . Thats why it won't run in custom rom that only run in its custom kernel like cm or what ever rom ... this is the disadvantage
But the advantage is that.. it will never trigger the flash counter .
