Yea I'm not sure quite how I was able to get back into recovery. I saw the same message...multiple times. It was only after I got into download mode(to make sure I actually could), then powered off, then back on that recovery loaded properly. I probably got lucky and it working after download mode, was a coincidence.

You might not need to restore to stock. I got stuck in the bootloop as well and started the firmware download intending to do a restore. I went into download mode, then powered off. When I powered back on, I was back to recovery. I figured since I was going to restore anyway, might as well give the update a try again since I saw the following on XDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51533599&postcount=612 If you can get back to recovery, give it another try.

Happy Birthday!

My G2 seems to display "Not available" for all the fields when the connection is idle and the LTE icons are dim. I don't recall it doing that before the spark update. They all populate once the connection is active.

It sounds like you're trying run the update using the phone...you need a pc to do this. I should have clarified, but the instructions are for Windows. I know the adb sideload command works in Linux too if anyone is running that. I think you can skip the driver install though on Linux.

I just uploaded it now to Dev-Host. Here's a link to the file: http://d-h.st/kF4

Some instructions for the folks without root and on stock recovery. You'll need to use Windows. This assumes you have the Lg drivers installed and have adb working. Download the update file on your pc...thanks to TumTum101 at XDA: http://d-h.st/kF4 Copy the file to the folder where adb is. Get into recovery by holding down power and volume down button. In recovery, choose the option on the phone that says apply update from adb. After that open up a command prompt in your folder where you have adb. Type in the following without quotes "adb sideload LS980ZV8_13-LS980ZVA_01_update.zip" The file will be copied to the phone, then it will proceed with the update. I don't recall if the phone restarted on its own after that...if not select reboot to system and you should be good to go.

I used adb sideload. My phone is stock, so not rooted and stock recovery. I think anyone with a custom recovery will either need to get back to stock recovery or wait for someone to make a flashable zip. Interesting though, I had enabled and disabled bands 26 and 41 and the update didn't touch those settings...they were still disabled. Question for those that didn't play with the settings, what are the stock priorities?

It shows when on LTE. Only band 25 at my work, but now I have the Spark icon. I just downloaded the update from XDA and installed it.

No luck here. Doesn't Google "flag" your phone for updates? So once you check and don't see an update, there's no point in trying multiple times that same day? I seem to recall some Google employee mentioning that when explaining why trying to clear out Google framework, wasn't a good idea.

Oops, totally missed that one. Sorry about that!

Per a Sprint employee(supposedly) on XDA, update for Spark scheduled for next 1/24. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2611075 Maybe an employee here can confirm.

It might be the site that's pretty close to there. It was 3G accepted around the last week in November. If you get a chance, map it on Sensorly.

I received that message too, but a reboot let me run the prl update.

I updated the PRL a few more times and it switched back and forth between 55017 and 60657.

It took a few tires, but here's a screenshot of 60657. I was on 55017 before updating. Data works, but no LTE.

It seems like CSFB can be enabled per site. The site local to my work had it disabled initially...a coworker was able to connect to LTE after it was accepted, but I wasn't able to connect until about a week or so after with the G2. The engineering screen would show it connected for about 5 seconds, then it would drop.

What part didn't what didn't work, booting into recovery or running the update? I used the one I linked, since my phone is still stock and it was the update that came from Sprint. I'm not sure if all the files posted at XDA are flashable through the stock recovery.

Here's the update: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23252070760973835 I had to use adb to sideload it.

Good question...its unlikely that they would forget to change the version number, but who knows. I wonder if that's still something that you can edit in the build.prop.

Interesting....apparently ZV8 will be the update. http://support.sprint.com/support/article/Find_and_update_the_software_version_on_your_LG_G2/WServiceAdvisory_542_GKB55011?INTNAV=SU:DP:OV:UG:LgG2:FindAndUpdateTheSoftwareVersionOnYourLgG2

I had read the other day, that there might be an update pushed out today...maybe it was on XDA? The Sprint device page lists ZV8 as the software version. http://device.sprintpcs.com/LG/LS980-SPRINT/latest

No they didn't....the one site went live in Ventura before the ones in Santa Barbara and Isla Vista. Nobody has mapped IV yet.
