I have tried to update through LG support tool but it shows upgrade available please visit LG Electronics: Consumer Electronics & Appliances from LG | LG USA also upgrade button was not enabled. So i tried an option upgrade recovery option then its automatically started downloading software around 1836MB , finally i successfully updated though LG support tool, after rebooting my phone still shows 4.1.2 !! pls advise :(

Hi Sarf, It should read 4.4.2. Else I believe the update failed. Since you tried recovery option I am not sure what happened.

Under Carrier: ATT there are only LGP505, 870, 925, 925P, 930, 930P, options and AD600, CT815, GS390GO, GW820,

I checked all other carriers and still no "E" anything.

E980 is definitely ATT. Can you call and check with att? I see that some e980 users on att have successfully updated.

My phone is an E980 for sure. The update tool does not give me the option for that. It won't connect to the phone although when I connect the phone to the computer via usb, I hear the little connection notification. I cannot seem to find asolution for this although I have ben told that as long as I can boot into twrp and/or get into download mode, I should be able to get it back up.

Hi David,
Did you look at the XDA link [GUIDE] [E980] Fix soft bricks. Flash back to stock using LGFLashTools - xda-developers before? It exactly details the process to set E980 to stock. It also has a link to download the stock image file.

Yes, I tried these exact instructions multiple times but the com ports do not show up in the device manager even if I show hidden devices. The flash program does not see the phone. I appreciate any help possible.

Is it possible that the drivers are not correctly installed on the PC you are trying on. Can you try the same process on a different PC?

I have been trying all suggestion on this thread and others and i have had no luck. I have decided to send it back to LG for repair. Since I have had it less than a year it is still under warranty. Due to the fact that this phone has been rooted though, it might void my warranty. Is there a way to completely wipe out any signs of root? Is there a way to completely wipe the internal storage? (I can only boot into twrp and get it into download mode) Thanks for any help.

Dude I LG update tool first select your country. Then go to install drivers and then you will your exact model no. Then it will work perfectly.

Hi,

I have the E98810e version in India. I am going to attempt an upgrade when I get home. I would have rooted and custom rommed my phone a long time back but I have been so happy with the phone the way it is that I just did not want to root it. I would love to get more home themes though. Kitkat or JB this phone still rocks my socks off ;)

Finally, I have gotten the KitKat 4.4.2 update OTA (~690MB) for my OGP LG-E988 in Singapore.
Sadly, only Knock Off feature is available. No Knock Code/Knock On feature with this update for LG OGP (LG-E988).

Hi just wondering if any of you who updated to Hong Kong or Singapore E988, do you have the transition animation bug?

Like for example when in the Settings app, you click a menu and back out you get the "opening" animation instead of "closing" animation.

Just a small cosmetic frustration.
