On the Verizon LG chocolate (VX-8500) its Menu -> Settings and Tools -> 0.Phone Info -> 2.SW Version.

should says something like T85VZV02 (for version 2 like I have)... or T85VZV03 (for version 3 which is current AFAIK)...

I couldn't find the software version via the menu so I did the following:

2945#*0000#

Option 7

And the software version running on my LG Choc is:

KG800P64-EUR-V10h-XXX-XX
MAY 12 2006

Does anyone know if this is a flakey version of firmware especially with it have lots of X's in it.

And here is where the fun begins... you have the LG KG800, we have the LG VX-8500 from Verizon... BOTH of which are called Chocolate

...

I hate it when they just call a phone a NAME that is the same... just like moto with the RAZR... there is the V3, V3i, V3X, V3C, V3M, and those are just the ones I know about

So you might want to fill in your profile with phone model and provider...
