Default How to flash ROMs at O4X

If some one has a tutorial "How to flash ROM at Optimus 4x " please use this space to share it with us.

I Have the V09a and I would like to flash V10b. The original upgrade tools does not work.

Is the any other way to do that?

you need the lg pc suite to update with. get it here

install it and connect your mobile to the pc using the usb cable.
remember to connect the usb cable between mobile and pc BEFORE you turn on the mobile.
if you do not do it correctly, the S/W upgrade menu will not appear, and update might fail (which i believe you seen now?)
(hold VOL- pressed, when you turn on the mobile, and S/W upgrade will appear, otherwise try again)

from here, the pc suite will guide you through the upgrade. i might be missing that you need to select mobile upgrade from the menu, but that is just a matter of selecting it
Remember to press THANKS, if you liked my help or builds.

My ROM is v10a, should it work?

I suggest you to follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1264289
The only two different things are that you have to download and select the proper kdz for ours p880 and also insert the battery between fourth and fifth step ( when you reached the s/w upgrade mode ), otherwise the flash won't finish ( at least, for me it was so ).

PS: obviously in step 4 you have to keep pressed "vol-" and, at the same time, plug in the usb cable.

i can confirm when you connect the USB cable you only need to keep VOL- kept down and do it within 2-3 seconds or it will not boot up.

but power button is not needed for f/w upgrade mode.

Is that all? Download LG PC suite and then connect USB? I tried that and got the S/W upgrade please wait while upgrading... but its taking forever.

ps: this is my first time rooting/flashing a phone.
