Help LG update does nothing.

Hello everyone. My first post here. I'm a newbie to android, so please bear with me.

I have an LG Eve. It comes with Android 1.5 (firmware v10a). I downloaded the LG update tool. I let it run. It downloads over 100Mb of data. The phone restarts, goes into emergency mode, it appears to be updating, then restarts again and the LG software says its finished. When I check my phone, everything is there, my contacts, still my old 1.5 Android. What am I doing wrong? I've tried it many times from different computers, and always the same result.

I tried doing a factory reset on the phone and did the process again and still everything still there. Any ideas?

Thank you.
