Ok so i rooted my phone with the new technique where you don't unlock the bootloader
Ok so i decided i didn't wanted root anymore so i research and saw the passimg file so i thought you could do the same as the mytouch just intall that file so i went up and do it
And i then tried and install the manual update but at the top it said e:can't open /cache/recovery/command and clicked on the update.zip file ams it had an error
I don't know what to do!!

so I tried to Root my Dream and choose after a number of failed attempts I have decided to just give up so I want to wipe and restore my phone's OS the factory but when I try though the settings menu the phone restarts then just sits on the "Rodgers" logo for ever so is there anyway to fix that?
Don't give up so soon
I definitely recommend rooting. The rogers firmware sucks by default imo. I did not like my phone at all until I rooted.
Check this guide by HyeProfile, I just used it on a new rogers dream and it worked 100%:

If you really don't want to root, you can follow the steps to try flashing (using the same instructions he gives in that post) with the official rogers radio.img and recovery.img here: http://www.stevebirstok.com/android/losemyroot.zip
well I hate how slow my phone feels so I'm going in for the root again thanks for the push to try again.
ok ran into an issue:
Installing from sdcard...
Finding update package...
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (No such file of directory)
E:Can't mount SDCARD:update.zip
Installation aborted

that means it can't see your sdcard.
see if dropping into the recovery console(alt+x) and typing
Code:
mount /sdcard
recovery
see if that helps anything since that command will mount your sdcard which it appears to be failing to read.
when I try enter the console all the options are removed form the screen then nothing happens all I see is the yellow text.
The yellow text I'm talking about is the error message I posted.
if you are trying to unroot it, use the same rc package that you use to downgrade it in the bootloader (camera and power) and run the .nbh there

Are you sure your sdcard is formatted to FAT32?
I'm going o try that when I get home
ok so it's weird.
E:Multiple firmware images
E:can't store hboot images
E:failure at line 1
write_hboot_image PACKAGE:hboot.img
install aborted
ok so now it just sits on the "Rogers" logo and wont enter any mode (camara+power)
edit: looks like that means I biked the thing hope they will replace it (i'll just blame it on their firmware update thing)
edit2: calling rogers to try get a replacement
will it it read an .nbh in the bootloader?
I don't know how can I test that or see if it will?
I was refering to the dreaimg.nbh from either rc29 or rc7 that you use to downgrade your phone in order to root it, that use the bootloader camera + power
no it wont enter any mode at all just sits on the rogers logo so a new phone should show up in the next 3 to 5 days
this kinda scares me off from trying again but I want to so I might.
got a all new phone and it still wont mount the Sd card like last time
ok so i helped some one root their rogers phone last night. are you trying to flash the radio, or have you followed all of the fastboot commands in the "rogers heres your real root" thread? the guy i was helping couldn't flash the radio but we got it with the fastboot commands
no I'm past loading recovery.img with fastboot and I'm trying to apply the update.zip
thats very odd. so you did all the fastboot commands and still can't get it to work?
is it any rom you try to flash?
well I was following the guide in one of the first posts
Hi guys,
I've tried to flash a new rom and now my phone doesnt start. When i power on the LG logo displays and i automatically enter the clockworkmod menü with this message:
ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0
E: Cant mount /cache/recovery/command
E: Cant mount /cache/recovery/log
E: Cant open /cache/recovery/log
E: Cant mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E: Cant open /cache/recovery/last_log
I cant even get into the recovery mode.
Is there anything i can do? Ive tried to wipe the cache and everything a few times but had no success!
I hope you can help me!
Edit: I have tried the instructions from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1007825
And i got this error message at the end: http://s1.directupload.net/file/d/2833/czj32463_jpg.htm

Does it reboot on going to recovery? If recovery is still accessible try clearing data,cache and dalvik.
Smart Flash Tool doesn't touch cache,userdata,nv,fota or lgdrm.
Try patching it with a different recovery.
i installed aroma file manager and deleted recovery folder which includes log and last_log files on cache
now it is ok.
i wiped cache and formatted too.
but it didnt deleted.
i deleted manually and problem solved
thnx
I posted in the all in one tool thread but didn't get any responses yet, so I thought I'd try the Q&A forum..
I unlocked bootloader, flashed CWM, and flashed SuperSU.zip. I received no error messages, but after I reboot, there is no SuperSU installed. If I try to install it from the play store I get "There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem!" when opening it.
I have tried this installation many times over, even sideloading SuperSU and also tried to install superuser.zip but that gave me an error message saying can't mount or write to /tmp/update.zip or something.
Code:

What is your issue? Its a 2 years old thread, I'm sure your issue is not exactly the same. What recovery version are you using? What supersu version? What is your rom version?

Yeah sorry I finally realized what stupid mistake I made... I was attempting to root my wife's phone to disable carrier iq, but u was using an old supersu zip... I finally got that to work and now I'm working on disabling carrier IQ using system tuner... I just wish there was a way to completely get rid of it as a whole, but disabling it will have to do... Thanks

Hello,
premise that I've already seen this and this, I am not able to install su binaries because of the problem described in the first link.
This is the first messages I see on recovery:
ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.4.3
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/command
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
The only way I have to install a .zip file is using sideload but even installing SuperSU or Superuser, in both cases I am not able to get su binaries installed. I've followed all the guides mentioned in the FAQs (i.e. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7GCnbjO1zw and this) but I guess something wasn't gone fine because of the mount problems above.
Could somebody help me please? The topics I've found here didn't help so far.

Uhh.. is your variant the Sprint variant (m7wls)? Or the international variant (m7_u or m7_ul)?

How can I check that?
As far as I understand mine should be the UL variant (having both GSM & LTE radio).

Go into the boot loader by pressing POWER+VOL DOWN. It should say the device name at the very top.

Thanks,
this is what I see in the boot loader:
M7_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT-1.57.0000
Maybe the fact it's still S-ON is also a problem isn't it?
EDIT: I've also found this. Do I have to install this recovery or this one instead?
I reply to myself!
I've finally solved the problem both with su binaries and mount messages installing the Philz Touch Recovery I've mentioned two rows above.
