    Required to do a successful flash:
    LG u880 (10a or 10b)
    The boxed or 3rd party USB Data cable (NOTE: You cannot use Bluetooth!)
    The u880 pack (download links above)

    The guide beginnings! :
    Run Setup.exe to install the Windows USB driver for LG U880 if you haven't done so already or from the CD.
    Plug in your phone with NO SIM and using the boxed USB cable that came with the phone to the computer and when your computer detects it open "LGMDP_H3G.exe" and select your u880.
    A window will open, click browse next to the option and select these files:
    AMSS MODEM IMAGE: U880-CODE-MUSEDR-V10b-Feb-08-2006-H3G-IT.bin
    MEDIA IMAGE: U880-MEDIA-V10b_wm-FEB-08-2006-H3G-UK.bin ** See Below First **
    MODULE IMAGE: U880-MODULE-V10b_final_unlock_kller_4_all_unlock.bin
    Now MEDIA IMAGE: U880-MEDIA-V10b_wm-FEB-08-2006-H3G-UK.bin you must select the correct file for your country in order for this to work. The pack comes with the UK one so you must use a hex editor if your from a differant country to change the file.

    Country codes:
    UK: ** Included in the Pack ** (0)
    Italy: 1
    Hong Kong: 2
    Sweden: 3
    Australia: 4
    Austria: 5
    Denmark: 6
    Other: Unknown at this time suggestion would be to try 0 (UK in file!) or 7
    Select/Tick the option to Erase EFS from the bottom and now sit your phone down and hit start.. It takes around 10 - 15 minutes when it has restarted a few times and it says "Download Complete" or "Download Done" unplug the USB cable from your phone.
    Take off the battery. Put in a 2G sim like an O2-UK one as I tested this with.
    When it comes up it says "USIM LOCKED". Press this on the keypad (nothing will show on screen).142358#*# (or press the SOS key on your phone IF you have it - UK Models don't have it unlocked) if done right your phone will restart and you will be shown the operator at the bottom (O2-UK for example).
    Enjoy!
    (Yes 3 Sim Cards still work with no code - just enter the code again with a 2G sim when you turn your phone back on and bingo - still working! )

    Yes I got an invoice with the phone.

    They don't send vouchers you print them yourself.

    The jiffy bag is sent separately.
