Firmware update: tethering on LG Optmius 7 available - Optimus 7 General

Just released here in Italy a firmware update for the LG Optimus 7 which updates the firmware to 1.0.16.10 and which enables internet tethering!

Yes, I've just got the update now (Vodafone UK Optimus 7) and now have wifi internet sharing in settings

Confirmed, new firmware with internet sharing in Bulgaria also.
Any other new features with this firmware ?

I've seen this quoted in a few places. I got the update... But my firmware seems to be at 1.0.13.10 and lack the new functionality and you have exactly the same setup as me :C

Hi guys. I've just updated with latest firmware pushed out here in italy. Now, both my firmware rev number and radio software ver are 1.0.16.10. This feature really rocks, i'm using it just now with my asus transformer tablet connected trough wp7 virtual access point... cool.

No update so far on Telus (Canada).
Is there any way to get the actual cab file with the update, so I can push it manually to the phone?

Just got an update too, my fw is 1.1.3.10 and I've no internet sharing option :s
Any ideas?

You're looking for radio and firmware version 1.0.16.10 and it does have wifi sharing.
When I upgraded to mango I was at 1.0.13.10, I had to check a few times but eventually I got the pop up that there was an update avaliable.

Does the new firmware correct the battery status bug ? check there and vote please : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1307995

Do I have to install this LG phone updater software or is it distributed via Zune? So far no update via Zune in Germany.

I had a problem to get an update today. 10.0.13.10 from GE Vodafone debranded.
I did a branding again (VOD-DE) and I have got immediately update notification. Currently running on 10.0.16.10 and with Internet sharing and adding hidden WIFI function.
So I am very happy to have LG.

Does anyone know if it is possible to re-brand my Telus Canada phone to Vodaphone Germany so I can get the update as well?

Sorry to hear that, I just connected with Zune and the update got me to firmware revision 1.0.16.10
Perhaps just keep trying to click on update in Zune as others have suggested

Hello. My phone find an update. My pc auto download it and start updating but on 5 step phone restarts and it says "error creating a backup" o something like that. Any help ? :/

I've re-branded mine through MFG and it keeps telling me I'm on the latest fw, 1.1.3.10

Update for the LG is available in Norway
Edit:
Carrier: OPN
Now Firmware 1.1.3.10
I don't find any new features! What's going on ?

Mine is showing both firmware and radio vesions 1.0.9.10 (Telus Canada)... Not finding any updates, clicking "Update" in Zune has no effect...

E900 w/ Open-FR ROM on Mango here. Nothing new on Zune =/

OPN rom (GR) with Mango here and no update in Zune. Tried to push the update with the known trick but it didn't work.

[Q] Possible Update -> Rogers

Hey there, I'm running R2BA026 - which I had updated to by debranding my x10a from Rogers Wireless (Canada). Upon updating, it had changed from x10a to x10i and there was warning in the instructions that doing so would result in PC Companion/SEUS not being able to update. I was fine with this as I could always revert when a major update was released. That brings me to a message I had received tonight while playing with files while connected to the USB. SEUS notified me that there was an update available for my phones software...but I can't update because... x10i, not x10a (although I have tried, it says it is unable to update). Now to my knowledge, I do have the latest firmware. So I'm wondering if anyone else on the Rogers network, or any where else for that matter, has gotten this notification? It could be some thing interesting but I don't want to revert to branded firmware just for some none sense update. :s
I'm on the Telus network..
Therefore.. I have to depend on Rogers to get the firmware though.. haha..
So I wouldn't get any notifications, but it'd be interesting to see if anyone got some.
I would definitely debrand myself and go back to Rogers to get it..or not cause I'll lose my root ):
I ran the updater this morning and nothing for me on Rogers

Can't update to 2.2 due "Device Version Cannot Be Updated" message

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi
I have am in the UK and have a UK unbranded and stock SIMFREE SGS. I'm just tring to install Froyo but keep getting the message "The device's version cannot be updated."
I applied RyanZA's One Click Lag Fix a while ago which worked fine and more recently tried updating the registry hack a couple of weeks ago.
Currently the latest Kies xxxx100 says:
Current Version: PDA:JM2 / PHONE:JM1 / CSC:JM1
I never managed to complete the hack despite adjusting the PC's registry initially to the Scandi version.
My registry editor reads -
Product Code: GT-I9000HKDXEU
Software Revision: I9000XWJM2/I9000XEEJM1/I9000XXJM1/I9000XWJM2
HIDSWVER: I9000XWJM2/I9000XEEJM1/I9000XXJM1/I9000XWJM2
I believe I uninstalled all the OCLF tools and then uninstalled the OCLF program itself.
Am I missing something?
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance. (also posted on Android Forums)
Got the same problem... yesterday used dakine method [ sorry can't give link i'm new user >< ] , and today Kies updated but can't update Phone... The reason i think is PDA JM2 version cause PHONE got JM1 and CSC too..
I had same message before i updated Kies to latest version.. after that i got back standart "latest fw version" message
Everytime i had this "cannot update" message.. there was kies update
My script checking firmware stopped working as well. That's because Samsung changed their protocol. That way applications using old protocol can not see updates. You need to have the newest Kies (assuming it's available in your country).

I'm pretty convinced it was the reg hack that never actually worked at play. Can I change it back to my original UK simfree settings as this would be an odler version of firmware than on the phone? If so, what are the settings, as I was originally on JF3?

In case it does, just close Kies, remove all entries in HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Samsung/Kies/DeviceDB/ and start Kies again.
I had the same issue coz my CSC was TMU despite my PC being I9000HDKXEU.
The only branding on my phone was the CSC as it was the first batch from T-Mobile. After a quick downgrade of Kies and a req hack I got the update.
I updated Kies again and now it shows I have the latest update So all updates from now on will not require the hack.
Happy Days
Agreed. To follow up, did the downgrade and reinstalled older Kies. Changed the registry settings and let Kies do its stuff. About 30 mins later, Froyo successfully installed.
Thanks for help guys.
mine says cannot be updated. i've never had any reg hack (and i don't want any) a my fw is JM8. should i downgrade to JM1? my product code is GT-I9000HKDXEZ
I downgraded to official jm1 and was then able to upgrade via kies.

DAMN...... Just tried to update the phone is not responding.
Kies downloaded the update and started to do the Upgrade.
It got about 5% (looking at the bar) into the update when it froze... The phone switched off, the bars not moved and it's been like that for the past 30mins.
HELPPPP.

You are not alone I have been facing the same problem with updating kies.
Mine reports the update, downloads it 100% but download bar still reportsas 40% & then says internet connection lost want to retry?
I say yes! does the same looping over & over again. I have downloaded over 3-4 gb in name of kies update but it has never updated.
The most messed up program I have ever used is Kies, seems some dumb guys are developing this who do not even understand how computer works.
The solution would be not to update instead download the new version> uninstall the old version & install the newer version.
The screenshot shows it already has downloaded twice the amount of data what the update size is.

This seems to be a higher version than what kies is officially reporting as update v2.0.0.11032_12
The link you provided is downloading Kies_2.0.0.11033_25
Is it ok to install with I9003, hope nothing goes wrong further as i am already fed up with this stupid software.
Uninstalled the older version & reinstalled the new version all seems to be working till now, its reporting me a new Firmware update & I will try updating it too but I hope it doesn't loop again & again as it was doing last time.
_12 is actually newer than _25. _25-January build. _12=February build.

I was having the same problem with kies saying it had lost connection so i turned off my kaspersky internet security and then install the kies update

Checked with CSL CS, and they said SE will launch an update to fix the NextG compatibility issue. Not sure if the latest 2.3.3 update includes the fix

[Q] How to upgrade official firmware

Hi Guys,
Yesterday, I bought my phone. Do we really need to connect to PC via Skies to upgrade the phone firmware? Cannt we do over the air using software update option? I can see software update option in phone under settings and you need to specify your samsung account details as well.
Any idea...
KIES is the only current method of Samsung firmware updates .
jje
the software update function only alerts you of updates AFAIK.. still have to use Kies

Yes you need a PC and an internet connection and Kies installed to upgrade the firmware officially.
For unofficial purpose, you need to have Odin and the firmware from Samfirmware.com, with a PC and net conn.
The built in Software Update feature in the phone is useless still, don't know why it is even there.
Regards.
Thanks Guys for clarification.
I downloaded Kies and attached my phone. It is showing me that I am running following latest firmware. I read on this forum that KE8 has been launched then why I am not seeing it in Kies. Any help.....
PDA:KE7 / PHONE:KE4 / CSC:KD1 (XEU)
As far as I'm aware, different countries get official updates at different times.
Because KE7 is the latest firmware released for your geographic territory. Other territories are up to KF3.
I am in UK. So UK is running behind for firmware upgrades.....
Some are still on KE2 GRRRRrrrrrrrr.....

No but you are bound to a product code .
Dont see the reason for the headlong rush to update when you know zilch about the update and many of the network providers are waiting for 2.3.4 .
