I updated the phone manually with v30a wich is for Romania. Is very smooth but in multitasking have lags...
With Gingerbread 2.3.4, Antutu benchmarks scored 5700 points and with ICS 4.0.4 i have 6500 points...

      Gave my lg p990 a new lease of life.. it really needed this ICS upgrade to show me what its capable of :) I am loving it ..

      I wasted a lot of my time upgrading at home.. but i feel its easier to take a bike ride to LG service station and pay 100 odd rupees.

      Bangalore one is at Jayanagar 4th block..

        Hi,

        I am not getting the Face Unlock option in the V30b ICS upgrade.

        Anyone who has upgraded and getting the face unlock option?

              I have updated my P990 to ICS today. The version is V30b.
              But I dont see option for face unlock anywhere in the settings.

              Anyone knows whether LG has provided Face unlock with the ICS release?

                  I tried updating to ics today via the lg support tool and it said i need to contact customer care

                      I've found on a forum a link to an website which tells you which is the latest firmware update for your lg P990, based on your IMEI code. Adress is this: http://tools.enetsite.com/linker/

                      I wrote my IMEI code in this site and as result it sais that the latest firmware update for my v20s firmware is the v20E_00 firmware. LG Mobile Suport tool or with PC Suite IV said that i have the latest firmware. So, who knows about the credibility of that site? It is posible to be real?

                        If the ICS update is available in your country AND your phone is carrier unlocked:

                        1. On Windows, uninstall all LG-related software and drivers, then reboot

                        2. Download and install the latest version of LG PC SUITE

                        3. Remove microSD, connect via USB, the P990 is detected automatically, then just click update to ICS (30min update)

                                Had called up the LG customer care where I was told that the ICS update is available and that I will have to go to their service centre for the same.

                                      I tried to update my lg p990 with the update tool but it keeps flashing the message "Contact customer care to know the software version" and does not let me update. The customer care said that the update is not yet available for my model.

                                      Is there a way to update the phone other than the using the update tool.
