Hi everyone,

So, LG is notorious for deleting files the moment their hardware is past support… anything to prevent you from retaining a device when you can be pressed to have to replace it. I have an older device and I have tracked down exactly what is wrong and how to fix it. Some folks have stated it’s bricked, but much research has revealed that this is untrue. I need the stock firmware, but LG’s site download links are all dead.

The device is the LG US730 (LG “Splendor”). The file I need is:
US73011b_03.S11b_03.P15107

If anyone has this or a previous version, I would so greatly appreciate it! I have spent many hours trying to track down the file from a mirror, an archive, a fan site, a site that has firmware backup files… no luck anywhere. I figured it can’t hurt to post a request just in case someone has it.

Thanks for reading, and if you can help, I would be in your debt and happily return the favor if you ever need anything that I have.

    But what if you try to navigate through the archived pages? The lack of direct links is something that also happens in some Microsoft pages, but some times Internet Archive manages to archive such pages anyways.
