Guest Posted May 8, 2011 Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 Thanks, worked great. The official tools didnt work for me, stopped at 64%, gave me some bogus instructions on how to start again and pretty much bricked the phone. This worked first go, although you forgot to mention to install the MSXML parser included with the KDZ_FW_UPD tools :mellow: Cheers! I agree, I had tried a number of methods which hadn't worked with a bricked GT540 (unable to get into emergency mode, but able to get into download mode holding volume down and pressing power), but after installing the MSXML Parser, getting the general EU firmware and following these steps, it fixed the phone and is now working perfectly. Thanks a million for this post, it was the only one on the internet that worked for me when an official LG Software update failed and bricked the phone Cheers!
