Nice to see any thread related to this phone. While I am using Vietnam Rom Called Sling 1.5.3 which has everything smooth and perfect but the only thing I am facing is Language issue here in Pakistan as you know RTL languages are not supported in this phone while having Jellybean which should support it. To be short I want to know if there is any way to bring RTL( Arabic,Urdu,Hebrew) support?

better to flash rom again
1. Download KDZ http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=19

LGT/LG U+(KOREA) V20d LGF160LV 891.35 MiB or
LGT/LG U+(KOREA) V20f LGF160L 878.34 MiB or
LGT/LG U+(KOREA) V20g LGF160L
2. Download Attached ZIP file http://www.mediafire.com/download/04n6a99dp8gq5zh/unbrick_lte2.zip


1) Download the latest KDZ for your phone
check link in attached file

2) Make sure you have LG United Drivers already installed, otherwise download from below
*LGUnitedMobileDriver file in attached zip

3) Download LG KDZ Updater
KDZ_FW_UPD_EN folder in zip

4) Download the manual adb wipe batch file

wipe in attached zip

5) Put your Optimus into Download Mode by switching it off, attaching the usb cable to the phone, holding both the up and down volume buttons at the same time and lastly inserting the usb cable into the computer; wait for the drivers to finish loading if doing it for the first time.

6) run KDZ_FW_UPD.exe. Use the settings below

Type: 3GQCT
Phone Mode: CS_Emergency
KDZ file: navigate to the folder which you have saved the downloaded KDZ from the step (1)

Click Launch Software Update and wait for the flash process to finish

7) Your phone will restart itself when IParam = 90 is displayed and proceed slower until you see IParam=1 again (which signals the end of flash, you can safely exit the program then and remove the cable from the phone). If phone boots up normally, congrats, skip the steps below and proceed to use the phone as per normal

thank you :) I fixed the problem by flashing KDZ.
While trying to flash KDZ I faced one problem: volume keys and attach USB didn't work to open "Download Mode"
Found some solution to force my phone to boot into Download Mode here
Then Flashed the KDZ and my phone works great :)

I rooted this total thread contents on my LG F160L Optimums II and was facing a inferior problem i.e. after call my screen go black and then all my buttons become freeze.However there is no option in setting lock or unlock durring calls even i also checked in system setting but no good luck. "After call screen lock.apk" help me which can block to going sleep or screen-off by unchecked all options except last "Proximity Sensor aiding". Now everything is approximately ok! Thanks to all!
