Hoi Hoi people
i got myself a GT540 Optimus <yes total newbeee to android>
It came with a deal for free and its my 1st android :0
anyway
After USING the official way (silly me )to update I now have some odd Portuguese apps installed ? Stuff from SAPO.pt ???
I didn't do any Sync backup as i just got the phone and its basically empty
I used the Updater tool from LG connected and all went well But after I look I was able to change the language to ENG but it has quiet a few Portuguese Apps installed...
I am in Holland so i cannot see how this updater decided to give me a POR image ?
Now i could make a guess and say the IMEI is for Portuguese market(?) and the dutch INTERNET cheapo middleman I got the deal from has bought a bunch on the gray market ..
Whatever it is i don't care
I would like you guys now to point me the right way
I just flash the thing myself
I think the tool i need is called KDZ ?
Please someone point me to the right post I am looking but seem to get nowhere
just more confused
Thanks guys
B.T.W I am not too inept . I am used to flashin me HTC HD all the time ..

Toen je de officele lg updater gebruikte, welke taal was hij toen?
Het kan zijn dat je dat aan het begin verkeerd heb ingesteld.

Thanks a lot guys
I followed the hints and now my LG is dead ..
LOL
This is rather annoying
1st I get a Crap gray import from 2call
then LG puts a Portuguese update rom on it??WTF!>?
while i choose NETHERLANDS with language english
but nevermind
buy **** buy twice thats life
My 1st and last lg phone ?/
What kind of rubbish is this
u update using the official LG tool and they play a freckin foreign rom onto my LG (SAPO.PT) then I cant update it at all anymore using the tool . So i look for alternatives but thats just made it worse ...
Really really poor this ..
Now ...I followed the guide but it didn't work ..well it did until restarted
My lg is now black. Dead ! doesn't start up at all !
Doesn't start no-matter what i try !
not even emergency mode.
And no guys I read the instruction word for word !!!!
I followed it to the letter !!!!! and the update did work ..Just now it doesn't start at all anymore.
I should of known reading around
there are too many update ways people are doing this ..Hack tool or original KDZ ..or just Black system way ..Too many loopholes for things to go wrong ..but now too late
Hmm...
Try a reflash...
This is a guide I followed from another forum, and posted elsewhere with some minor additions in case anyone had problems.
The guide is from a forum post at the android forums,it is NOT my work, the added bits are mostly what I have found from browsing here and from asking questions. While I can't be held liable if you mess your phone up having done so myself I thought this could helpa few people and save them searching various threads for answers so hope it helps
The guide
To install this ROM you need to have fastboot enabled on your phone. If you have Android 1.6/2.1 installed from LG, then fastboot is not enabled. I will explain how to enable fastboot on your phone (this involves re-flashing/replacing your currently installed firmware):
I am unable to post links yet so you will have to copy and paste the appropriate link into your browser replacing the ** with tt
KDZ Updater Carphone Warehouse Unlocked.zip can be downloaded at h**p://goo.gl/7aRTc - A link to a zip archive with all the files needed to flash to Android version 2.1 with fastboot (Carphone Warehouse Unlocked)
KDZ Updater Europe Open.zip can be downloaded at h**p://goo.gl/BOcYT - A link to a zip archive with all the files needed to flash toAndroid version 2.1 with fastboot (Europe Open)
Download the version that best applies to you, if you live in the UK, I'd recommend you download the Carphone Warehouse Unlocked version, whereas if you live in Europe, I'd recommend the Europe Open version (simple right? )
I live in the UK and used the open rom from Europe as the Carphone Warehouse rom would not install
Now, how to flash these versions; I'll explain in detail how to flash the ROM's from starting with backing up.
Instructions to install ROM with Fastboot:
1. Before you start, make sure you backup all your data by installing the z4root.1.3.0.apk file onto your phone, then open it and choose 'Permanent Root'. Your phone will root and reboot. Then go to the Market and install 'MyBackup Root', open it and do a backup of your apps and personal data (contacts, sms, call log etc.) Once this is done, go to Settings>SD Card and Phone Storage>Unmount SD Card, a notification in the notification bar should appear saying 'SD Card safe to remove'. Remove the battery cover and remove the SD card and store it in a safe place. Then continue to step 2.
2. Extract the .zip file you downloaded to your computer (e.g. your desktop). Open the folder and install MSXML 4.0 SP3 Parser (msxml.msi).
3. Once that has finished, install LGAndroidDriver_WHQL_ML_Ver1.0_All_Win7.exe which are the drivers so your computer will recognize your phone.
4. Next, open KDZ_FW_UPD.exe
(i) Change 'Type' to '3GQCT' *THIS IS A MUST, THE UPDATE WILL NOT WORK OTHERWISE AND YOU MAY BRICK YOUR PHONE*
(ii) Make sure 'PhoneMode' is set to 'DIAG'
(iii) Browse for the 'V20B_00+Fastboot.kdz' file.
5. Prepare the phone by enabling USB Debugging by going to Settings>Applications>Development>Enable USB Debugging and connect the phone to the computer via USB cable and wait for the drivers to install for the phone.
6. Click 'Launch software update' and do not use your computer until the update is complete. The update will take roughly 10-20 mins to complete.
If you have a problem with this try a different rom, this guide offers two to choose from.
Instructions to install CyanogenMod:
Once the update is complete, your phone will reboot, what you need to do is power off the phone and whilst the phone is off, press and hold the 'Camera' button all the way ANDpower on the phone, make sure you hold the 'Camera' button. The phone will display the LG logo and disappear, then display a blank screen. The phone is now in fastboot mode!
Now you want to download this file: Flashing CyanogenMod.zip and extract it to a folder called 'Android' (without the quotes '') on the C: drive (you'll probably need to make this folder yourself.
1. Now open CMD with administrator privileges (Search for CMD in the start menu and right click on 'cmd' and click 'Run as Administrator' )
2. Connect the phone to your computer via USB cable and wait for the necessary drivers to install.
If when connected with a usb cable the computer says "waiting for device" and nothing else happens try installing the fastboot drivers. You can do this by going to the control panel of your pc, from the Windows start menu, opening the list of devices and where you see the one representing your phone (likely, as was the case with me, it will say android and have a yellow exclamation mark over it). Different versions of Windows do things slightly different but what you need to do is simply update the driver by choosing the icons properties box choosing UPDATE or INSTALL DRIVER and when asked pointing it to the folder where you unzipped the drivers.
3. Then go back to the cmd window and type:
Code:
cd C:\Android
(i) Then type:
Code:
fastboot.exe -w
(ii) Once that's completed, type:
Code:
fastboot.exe erase system
(iii) Once that's completed, type:
Code:
fastboot.exe flash system system.img
(iv) Once that's completed, type:
Code:
fastboot.exe flash boot boot.img
(v) Once that's completed, type:
Code:
fastboot.exe reboot
4. Your phone will now reboot with CyanogenMod 6.1.1 (Android 2.2.1). The first boot might take longer than a normal boot.
If your phone stays at a blank screen you simply forgot to do one of the above steps, in which case simply repeat them. It is likely if that happens that you simply forgot the flash boot image instruction.
5. You can now re-insert your SD card and go to Settings>SD Card and Phone Storage>Mount SD Card
Enjoy!
The instructions for flashing both the firmware with fastboot and flashing CyanogenMod are included in the zip archives called 'Readme'. I'll update the links so that you'll always have the most up to date version of CyanogenMod available for download, note that if you choose to update your phone you will loose all your data including apps etc. so backup before you update
And that, with a few comments added by myself, is the guide.
Once you have set your phone up the way you want power off your phone. Hold the HOME and POWER buttons down while the LG logo appears and you will see a menu appear on screen.
Using the volume down key to navigate the different menu choices, and the camera button to select an option choose the BACKUP OR RESTORE option and from the sub menu that it will give you choose BACKUP.
This will make a backup of your phone AND all your data, if you ever mess up an update or think you have damaged your phone in the future simply holdthe POWER and HOME buttons down and when the menu appears choose the RESTORE option

Dude
thanks a lot for your lengthy post and effort .I appreciate it .
but unfortunately U seem to miss the post I wrote.
MY LG doesn't even start anymore after using the Hack tool to upgrade it ...
SO its futile ??
I cant start the phone at all ...
After following yesterdays advice Its dead ..
Great init
Oh dang. Doesn't even turn on? No LG boot logo?
Well...if it's bricked...the only three ways are:
1) Get it repaired/replaced.
2) Buy a new phone.
3) Use it as a paperweight.
=)
No my friend ..its DEAD !!!!
following the guide to the letter
Installed parser got the hack tool
run all as admin and made sure I started windows enabler
All the things in the guide
worked a charm until reboot
Not its black and dead!!!
ANY IDEAS !!!!?????
Have you tried this...
If you did it with kdz updater than:
pull out battery, sim and sd
connect phone with computer
disable lg modem in the device manager
flash a rom with fastboot
go in fastboot by camara+power
connect to computer
type 'fastboot -w' and 'fastboot reboot' in cmd

You can try by pulling out your battery, SIM card and SD card...
Note to you: Try everything that is possible and don't give up. Maybe you will fix it if you try.

It doesn't power at all
I DOESN'T connect to the pc
It Makes no difference if i have battery in or out .
sd card and sim are long removed ..and I tried with and without battery as well.
It updated, then rebooted to never come back ...

I understand id have a chance if i had at least a boot but I dont It dotn boot it dont Power up
Try getting into Emergency/Download mode by holding down "Volume Down" button and plugging into PC.
After that...try reflashing.

Hmm...probably give it a rest for a while...and then try again.
If all else fails..last resort.
Send back to LG for repairs or replacement.
mmh
So I gues iam screwed ..
I didn't even want to get into moddin the gt540 . Just the OFFICIAL 2.1 release really ..
And even that LG cant do without f&*kin me phone to Portuguese
So Well done LG )
So...you wanted to push the limit of your Le 1 Pro (x800) phone and install a newer ROM, but surprise...you bricked your phone?! Welcome to the solution...
Requirements:
-Hard-bricked Le 1 Pro, aka x800 (HARD BRICKED = Nothing comes up, no Penguin [fastboot], no Recovery)
-Windows Computer (I used Windows 7 32-bit, but Win8/10 32/64-bit should also work fine.)
-USB Type-C Data/Charge cable
-Qualcomm QPST 2.7 Build 429 (older versions such as 422 or 427 DO NOT WORK, I've tried.)
-Qualcomm Drivers
Review this link: http://www.droidsavvy.com/unbrick-qualcomm-mobiles/ (It talks about putting the computer in test mode and removing all existing drivers...either of which may or may not be required. If you run into trouble, try some of the things from this link!!)
Steps:
1) Download this zip file (contains everything you need): https://mega.nz/#!KthDlSxD!deEIr2y0PAPcPC4CHUSP2zInbBJ5VgBJpWa1B0PYhv0 (1.33GB File Size)
2) Unzip it.
3) Install "QPST.2.7.429.msi".
4) Plug-in phone and install applicable drivers from "Qualcomm_Drivers" folder (x86 = 32-bit, x64 = 64-bit).
5) From your computers applications folder, run "QFIL".
6) At the top, it should say something like "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3)". (If not try holding the phone's power button for maybe 5-20 seconds. If that doesn't work, see the above link about running your computer in test mode, uninstalling existing drivers, etc.)
6) Choose "Flat Build".
7) Click "Browse..." and choose prog_emmc_firehose_8994_lite.mbn from the "x1_na_dvt1_fastboot" folder.
8) Click "Load XML..." and choose rawprogram_unsparse.xml and when prompted, patch0.xml from the "x1_na_dvt1_fastboot" folder.
9) Click "Download" and let the fun begin.
FYI: Please DO NOT use the rom as-is. This is an early Chinese prototype rom, not a daily driver. Seek help/links from other users to install a different ROM. Perhaps in the future I'll have something better for you.
Disclaimer:
Apologies ahead of time if I don't have time to help you all troubleshoot. This is a complex process and although I've tried to make it easier, there will probably be some speed-bumps...like everything in life. Like you, this has already sucked up a lot of time and energy. I truly hope that those who are successful can help others! Best of luck to you!
So this is for the 64 GB US-Version?
Anyone tried it yet?

Yes, 64GB NA version. Unknown if it works for other iterations.
Can you please upload the zip file on a most reliable site? I think is the fourth time I try to dowload it and everytime connection broke. Thank you!
Thanks a lot
Thanks a lot. I finally unbricked my phone.
However, the storage became 8gb, blue notification light is constantly on, etc.
Any suggestions how to fix them?
Installed cuoco92 rom but no success on the abovementioned problems.
Wanted to wipe internal storage when installing rom but usb otg shows 0 mb in twrp. Cannot flash zip from usb.
Sucess!!!! I debricked it! Thak you viperdream26. The phone now boots directly to recovery. Which recovery/rom did you flash? I dont want to mess this up again...
Guys please upload the zip on another site. I cannot download it using the link provided by viperdream. Thank you!
yadi.sk/d/KtcTvu6jsHA4g
Thank you!
Well, i did brick my x800 too, but i manage to instal the trwp, its working, i didnt flash any rom, but, i got it bugged instaling twrp...
Now im on recovery loop, how can i get out of this recovery and boot ?
First of all big thanks to viperdream26 !
Same here as Makvelli - 10:44.
Phone only boots in Chinese recovery and then nothing else, can't do anything in this recovery. Does anyone know how to proceed ?
I was to quick with my response ! Phone boots ok, bootanimation is absent (only LETV with underneath two Chinese lines) and the rom is multi-langual.
Rom : Build-number 0.3-20150630-20-test-keys.
Well, now phone reboots every 5 minutes !
I suppose this rom isn't the US version ?
Operation went fine and I got a successful message. Now I have the chinese LeTv recovery!

I had the same problem. I put the phone in download mode (volume down and power button till I saw that peungine again). Kinda missed him since my phone was in coma for a week . Then i flashed the twrp 3.0.2 again and now I'm going to wait for maybe cuoco92 to help us with some ideas what to do next? Did anybody tried to flash his custom rom for us x800 13s?
after the restoration of this method it is necessary to update the firmware via fastboot! Firmware is here to see prices yadi.sk/d/lIMbN-bbsHRbT

Do we have any custom rom and TWRP for Us version? Thanks for bringing my phone back to life!
I will try to explain everything from the beginning. I was about to install a custom rom install (it was in 7.1.1 stock, unlocked bootloader) so when I was going to do full wipe with lastest TWRP there was an error. Wait for about 15 minutes just in case, but nothing happened so I decided to restart it to try again. But the phone stuck in the ZTE logo and if it tried to enter TWRP was stuck in the logo too, I tried with all versions of TWRP and no one works. Find a post that said I could use TWRP tenfars tool to recover my phone and had to enter the EDL mode. I managed to put the phone in edl mode but now I can not get out of it. I press and hold the power button for a minute and nothing happens (no vibration, no led, no ZTE logo) my pc just does the unplug windows sound. My pc recognizes the phone as QUSB_BULK. When I try to use the tenfars tool I get this message:
C:\Users\Alejandro Saavedra\Downloads\minimal_adb_fastboot_1.4.1_portable>axon7tool -w recovery
Connecting to device...
S: failed to read command
S: Failed to receive hello
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
what(): error: Unknown error
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
Also try using the xiaomi MiFlash tool (even change the drivers from QUSB_BULK to COM COM 5) but something similar happens, also tells me can not recive hello package.
I'm a little new to this so I beg you a little patience
Please work very hard to buy this phone, there has to be some way to unbrick it. :crying:
If you need any additional information just tell me
If you use axon7tool :
check in Devices Manager if is called QLIBSD.
rename recovery.img to recovery.bin.
If you use MiFlash :
get latest version : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673368273298954241
check in Devices Manager if is called Qualcomm 8004.

Thanks to everyone for your answers, I was able to recover my phone using miflash, qualcom usb drivers and this ROM https://build.nethunter.com/misc/axon7/A2017U_B15-NEW_FULL_EDL.zip I put my phone in EDL mode and then flash the mentioned rom. It took me like 20-30 tries to finally get it. The last attempt I made was to unplug the device from the computer, I kept the power button for 10 seconds and connect it to the computer without ever releasing the power button. It was seen as always (black screen, not led) but for some reason this time works. I hope everyone can solve this problem. Can pm me if you need help, maybe i can help with something

That's because you reset the EDL that way. the method is weird but seemed to work...
If you hold the 3 buttons for ~10 secs while the device is in EDL it will reset it
@Choose an username... I am out of context, but I wonder if I can remove the ugly message on each startup telling it can't check if the device is not corrupted... I think this message is caused by the unlocked bootloader. A solution ? Thank you.

Listen
Download the mena firmware, and then press and hold power button and volume down button it will force reboot your device, then your phone may get rebooted and go on black screen
Dont worry, take a deep breath and keep patience
And do the following steps
Install OST and follow the steps down here
The instructions will be for OST tool and for mena firmware but you can install Chinese varient too
Install OST tool
Now
1. Open ur directory, c:/program files x86/OST and replace the online update tool from there and delete the config file,
AND REMEMBER THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT,
2. Open online update tool from ur directory only, from c:/program files x86/OST only, donot start it from any shortcut created on desktop or from start menu, just start it from its original directory,
if it still gives error about microsoft error warning, try fresh replacing ur online update tool again from the zip
And start the program from there only, once it successfully started
3. Click next, then choose the firmware mena, that is
PLE-3320-0-00WW-A02.nb0 file your one could be CNxxxx) and put ur phone into bootloader,
For now what you need to do is connect your phone and keep holding your power button for a while till it switches off your device and leave the button once if it turned of before it get rebooted
It should automatically take you to boot loader or else try this step for 1-2 time again you will surely rebooted to bootloader
Once it boot to bootloader
click next button on OST, now the first time u may stuck on flashing splash file and ur phone could restarted
4. Follow all the same steps again
5. Start the tool again
The tool will surely give u error for Microsoft.net
Dont panic
Close it and replace the online update tool again
6. Remember no matter if u replace the file before error, it will give error for one time surely
7. Replace it again with online updating tool and the start it from the directory
8. Now Click next, then choose the firmware mena, that is
PLE-3320-0-00WW-A02.nb0 ( your one could be CNxxxx) file and put ur phone into bootloader
Same as above i told once to goto the bootloader by connecting phone and keep holding power button untin it get rebooted and release the power button just after the phone turns off and before it get rebooted.
9. Now it should be connected and click next this time your phone will get flashed successfully...if it give error again, then try one more time u will be successfully installed the mena firmware

Look every step is written, your phone will be recognised once you start ost tool
When u start the tool the ost will ask you to browse the firmware file with .nb0 extension
Then it will ask you to connect the phone
Now connect your phone
Then keep holding volume down and power button together, once your phone get turned off then it will show u that its been booted into bootloader or download mode, click next on ost tool and it will start flashing your device
Thats all

hi, i can't flash or update anything because i rooted my phone and making update will brick my phone : "10.After your phone rooted, you can reboot your phone. DO NOT INSTALL ANY OTA UPDATES OR YOUR PHONE WILL GET STUCK AT STOCK RECOVERY (However I've never tested Magisk on Nokia 6), but I’ll recommend you to disable automatic update in settings."

You must flash oreo stock again
OMG! It works!! Tested on J701F
I had to OEM unlocked because the touch screen stopped working after the phone automatically updated to OREO 8.1 (because the touch screen was replaced and obviously Samsung dropped support for non-oem touch panels in this update) so I have looked everywhere for solution until I found it here http://www.technocaretricks.com/samsung-j701f-touch-not-working-after-update-to-8-1-oreo/
But flashing that TAR file wasn't possible without changing the RMM state.
Thanks a lot, you are a lifesaver

First. Do the process and flash oreo stock again and then you can see the oem unlock option.. After that you can flash twrp and the rom that you want
deleted.
Thanks. I follow instructions and I can manage to flash twrp
And helios kernel.the only thing I notice after all those flashing is when I check dev option is OEM unlock is gone again. But don't care this moment because I manage to root my phone and that is ok. thanks again
