Im not able to downgrade to V21A

I have upgraded to 20B and not able to root the phone, I tried to downgrade the phone to V21A but im not able to as the tool says you are already up to date.

The thing that i noticed is that i dont get this following option "7. Clear Phone Software update registry, Select "Different Country" and select your Language. Click <OK>"

Instead it goes to this window "LG Mobile Support tool" and says that im already up to date and does not give an option to start updating, somebody give me an option or am i doing something wrong over here.

Without rooting my phone battery dies in 4hrs!! :(

Please help, thanks in advance !!

Thank you unknown_world for the very good job you did.

To make things easier for everybody, I wrote a vbscript, to take care of all this automatically and made a new complete package including all needed files and detailed rewritten instructions.

Extract the Content of Attached Zip anywhere you want.
This script must be run as administrator so Start ->All Programs ->Accessories -> right-click on Command Prompt -> select Run as administrator. Then drag-drop the script in and press enter.
OR
Open Notepad, write the fullpath name of the script inside double quotes e.g:

"X:\your folder\Automatic Offline Procedure.vbs"

and save it as whatever.cmd, then right-click this and run it as administrator.

The script automatically:
a) adds 127.0.0.1 csmg.lgmobile.com entry (temporarily) in hosts file,
b) runs the small HTTP Server(which is preconfigured to listen to port 9002 and run from wherever this package is extracted),
c) installs MSXML,
d) runs all the utilities automatically for you (you only have to set to ON the windows enabler),
e) and finally after closing the utility (R&D Test Tool) it reverts back your hosts file, removing the above entry and stops http server and windows enabler.

I hope it will help.


Well, youre the Master! worked perfectly! Thanks :)

    Problem:
    Latest Version of LG Mobile Update prevents uses from updating firmware from kdz files.

    Info:
    As LG Tools relay on lg webserver to provide application updates and firmware updates it's not possible to just use the old version as it force fully update it self.

    Solution:
    I used network sniffer(Wireshark) to sniff all the traffic between application and LG Webserver i tracked the important urls and the data coming from LG Webserver. I created all the files with same names and with data from LG Webserver. I changes the LG Mobile Application from 1.5.4.9 to 1.5.4.8. Rest of the files has same data as LG.

    How To:

    1) Download http://smallsrv.com/

    2) Install

    screenshot3101201219233.jpg


    3) Go to Settings

    screenshot3101201219272.jpg


    4) Go to HTTP Settings

    screenshot3101201219284.jpg


    5) Change Port to 9002

    screenshot3101201219293.jpg


    6) Extract the Content of Attached Zip file into C:\shttps\www

    screenshot3101201219310.jpg


    7) Edit C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\host in notepad and add the following Line
    127.0.0.1 csmg.lgmobile.com

    screenshot3101201219324.jpg


    8) Enjoy Flashing firmware as usual
    http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1287236

    Note:
    This method has lot of advantage
    -LG Is watching everything when you run firmware update with KDZ Method lg is logging everything you mobile No, SN No, OLD Firmware, New Firmware etc..

    Thanks:
    If you have any questions or need any info feel free to ask i will try my best to help.

    Here you have one in the zip package. ;)

    View attachment log.zip

    I installed all drivers...What can I do now? I'm close to smash this on the wall!!!!!!

    where I can get the drivers? since I edited the host file...and I can't do anything on LG sites...

    please help, before I do something crazy!

    That's normal :)

    If you want have a standard connection to the LG server then you have to kill the "shttp"-Tool and modify the "hosts" file temporar like this:
