LG GPad 7.0 LTE (v410) Firmware Update (?)

[gibbsrob]

Just plugged the Gpad in to charge and this popped up. Hoping it's 5.0.
It's just sitting on 0% for the longest time.
I will update the status when I have something to report.

Updated on post:
Nothing. False alarm. I don't know how or why my tablet ended up on the update recovery screen because it was already powered on when I plugged it in, but no update.

That mode is only to update via lgflashtools....

My cousin's v410 is dead and I plugged it in to a USB wall charger. Some conductive trash must have been in the plug, I guess, because it rebooted to firmware update mode on me, instantly and from any state. If you see this mode unplug your tablet, hold down power to restart, and try a different cord or blow/clean the trash out of the plug.

Update to Lollipop lg G pad 7.0 lte v410 AT&T if you got a root issue

I had rooted my lg G pad and could not update to lollipop update this is how I got it to work. I removed the SD card and Sim card then I unrooted the tablet and restarted it. I also performed a hard reset from the settings menu. Make sure you unselected the data backup and automatic restore before resetting, now reset tablet. When it restarts just log into the WiFi and nothing else. Now go to settings and go to update center to find the firmware update download it and install it.

I'm too waiting for the same update, did you get any new link for that, mine is on 4.4.2 v41010d

No the update I got it through the settings menu on the tablet go to about tablet and then to check for updates that's how I got it.

Does anyone have any KDZ files?

I had a corrupted Stock ROM on a G Tab 7 Tablet due to applications that were installed by the previous owner; no matter what I did, Addware apps would always install on there own; I mean, even after restoring factory settings via the settings, or via the hardware combinations keys to reset to factory settings, It would reset the device but it would still install all the annoying apps as if they were Factory installed; weird, I had never seen something like this in any device I've worked on.

Anyways, since Factory Reset wouldn't help I had to Flash the Tablet.

I found the V41007h_0.kdz file which I was able to flash using the the LG Flash tool.
But now there is a a watermark in red "userdebug 4.20.17(42001700)" in the Home Screen.

So I'm hoping at the very least I can find a KDZ file to go back to the firmware version that the Tablet had which was V41010d.

Does anyone have any links to point me in the right direction?
If you can't post it in public, please Private message the links.

Thanks in advance for your help.

You've flashed a KDZ that contained a test build. If you follow the steps in my thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/g-pad-10/general/tutorial-lg-gpad-v410-5-1-to-4-4-t3232150 then you can recover the lost space of your internal SD card and run custom ROMs. Unfortunately I don't think there is currently a way to go back to stock 5.0.2 from this point. If there is, it has not been documented in this form (to my knowledge).

Please post in my thread if you need help with that process.

No the update I got it through the settings menu on the tablet go to about tablet and then to check for updates that's how I got it.

I could not get it through SIM card because i don't have an AT&T SIM neither i live in the US nor AT&T has any services nearby, so i definitely need a zip file that might be an OTA or something that can be installed via ADB or system recovery. please share somethings for me.

Update LG Gpad 7.0

I'm too waiting for the same update, did you get any new link for that, mine is on 4.4.2 v41010d

I was trying to update my GPad 7.0 to 5.0.2 or 5.1.0 from 4.4.2 and no OTA updates no matter what I do.

I'm on Android 4.4.2 with software version v41010d. Hardware says LG-V410 in "about tablet" section.

What's the quickest easiest way. I'm concerned that this is an older tablet and isn't updateable or has some update problems so that is the reason for my question. Maybe I'll keep it on 4.4.2 but wanted to run latest Kodi which won't work with anything but 5.0 or greater.

I never saw the OTA captured or a 5.X stock rom posted here, sorry. AT&T is notorious for blocking the release of firmware packages for their branded devices, so you won't find a V410 kdz from LG support either. If you can't get the System Update to work from the Settings menu, you might be stuck as far as stock goes. There wasn't much interest in updating stock in the community here because stock 5.0 patched the vulnerability that let us sign our own boot images. That effectively blocked TWRP and custom roms since the bootloader can't be unlocked. You could try the old take your sim out, reboot and check for the update trick. Some people say that doesn't work, and others swear by it.

There are plenty of 5.X and higher custom rom options, if you want to update the system that way. Tesla, Tipsy, and Validus were all 5.1 roms and they're still on androidfilehost.com. LOS and Candy have been updated up to 7.1. I keep Tesla on my V410 and it works great. All the custom roms rely on being on the 4.4 stock bootloader and radios since the kitkat bootloader was the only one vulnerable to the Bump exploit, so you're in a good place to start from.

I find it strange that there isn't a separate device category on XDA for GPad 7.0. I guess there must be a reason - but it's probably too geeked out for a common humanoid like me to understand.

You aren't the first person to wonder about that. We requested a different forum for the V400/410 early on and it never happened. I don't know why. It does get confusing. You'll find the V400, V410, V480, V700 and probably a few more devices discussed here. A large majority of the development is for the V400/410, though.

Download twrp for the V410 to a computer, then connect the tablet to the computer and try using this command with fastboot:

fastboot boot twrp.img

That should boot you into TWRP without actually flashing it. If it works, from there you should be able to try to wipe and flash some roms. Sorry, but I'm not convinced it will work in the state your tablet is in. If your device is falling back to fastboot, your laf partition is blank or damaged and very possibly some other partitions are missing or damaged too, and that might prevent TWRP or roms from working right.

If that fails, you can use fastboot to restore the laf partition and hope that brings back download mode so you can try the kdz again:

fastboot flash laf laf.img

I've restored my laf this way; I actually intentionally nuked laf to enable fastboot. I can provide laf.img if you decide to try this.
