Did you flash your phone, with SIM inserted, or not? Either way, try it tge other way around ;)

minor issue

1. I encountered a minor issue: 1st time I tried to flash, the windows cab expansion utility crashed. I moved the kdz and the extract tool into a folder on desktop and restarted and 2nd time went all ok. maybe it`s something with permissions on my system or a bug in windows cab utility.
2. After flashing all OK and phone rebooting, it takes 10-15 min for the phone to start (just this first time). Don`t do anything, just be patient and wait!

I posted this just for your information, if someone encounters the same problem.

why is it on the development section?

I think just because it`s not recommended for beginners to start experiencing flashing their phones ;) That way, you have to look "deeper" and have to read and learn some more stuff before pressing START :)

Hi,

I get this error when trying to download a stock firmware from this page: http://www.lg-phones.org/official-stock-lg-optimus-black-firmware-rom.html

Access Denied
You don't have permission to access "http://csmgdl.lgmobile.com/swdata/WDLSW/LGP970/ANEUTL/V10e_00/V10E_00.kdz" on this server.

Is there an alternative page?

This tutorial still works!

I would like to thank the author,

I followed steps describe here and its working flawlessly. Well done.!

Anyway, I tried the Stock Rom link you provided and they all show access denied, but I search and get the V30B from this link.
" h t t p : / / d - h . s t / z k U " (please remove "white space" then you get the correct link). Also in my case, first attemp to connect phone with SmartFlasher Tool didn't show COM PORT , but after (did exactly what suggest by the author) remove battery - then try again, it show COM PORT as expected. Press start -> wait 4:20 minutes and my phone start rebooting. After 2 more minutes all works well. :good: Sim OK, Signal OK, WIFI work, every thing looks perfect.!

Thanks again.

    Patched ICS (v30X) firmware (KDZ) with CWM will BRICK your device!

    So it just can be done with GB / Froyo (?)
