Hey
Where is the software update actually stored on the device? (The 8/4/2011 for the LG Revolution).
Once updated, can yo install CWM? Can it be rooted?
Just hang out, it will not install through cwm. Thecubed is going to be working on it.

I actually wanted to tinker with the Software Update file and see whats inside. I wanted to know where Android downloads it to on the filesystem.
I'm sure TheCubed will figure it out with CWM

Go into settings-about phone-update status and download the update. Do not install and check in that folder.

Yes. I assume you don't have cwm if you updated?

What are you trying to find? You can adb pull whatever file you are wanting to check, then check it against the old file to see what has changed.

It possibly could install by changing it to a zip file but who knows what it would mess up. With recovery items in there it may mess up cwm, that is a little above me without doing more research into it.

He's right. Installing the update without removing some stuff from it first (like it's new boot.img and the "installrecovery.sh" script) would possibly softbrick your device.
Decrap2 will take a while to do since it's gonna take a lot of work to apply this update to my ROM (gotta flash back to stock and apply the OTA, then deodex and then remove bing all over again...)
i didn't have it installed on my phone when I updated the phone

I'm confused- do you have CWM installed? If so, there's no way you could have applied the update yet...

I have two revolution devices.
One was stock (as if I bought it from a VZW store), the other one was with CWM.
The CWM with Decrap on it. (giving lots of issues with the launcher such as missing icons, etc)
Stock is on the latest LG update.
CWM is on the OEM release

My Verizon was updated today to version 10.0.3 breaking the version that we used to use for the thunderbolt. Can someone with a rooted phone snag the installation file out of their data/app folder for me after downloading the update? Thanks! Much appreciated.

Uninstall the update from settings/applications/manage applications, look in the "All" tab and click on My Verizon App. Should be an option to remove update. You can disable auto updates from the market so this doesn't happen again.
If that fails PM me. I have the original version in a zip.

That's not his problem I don't think... I think he means when they updated the app it made the app he was using not work anymore. He never downloaded the update. The update is what he's looking for

From what I've read you have to update from v4 to v6 before u can get gb
If u have clockwork, you won't be able to update, as far as I'm aware.

Assuming you are on a stock rooted zv4 as you said. Revo toolkit. Install stock recovery. Then check for update. Will bring you to zv6. Then check for update again for gb. Make sure you have plenty of batteries. I did this in the bar the other night and I went from 78 to like 43%

Downgraded to v4 then upgraded to v6
I assumed that by upgrading to v6 I would lose clockwork and root.
I did think that I would then be able to get the GB update, but when I use the check for new software nothing........

If you don't have BusyBox installed in the correct directory, the REVOTOOLKIT will not work properly. If you left the default of system\xbin, you will need to re-run the busybox installer and choose system\bin this time.
RevoToolKit should work properly after that to put the stock boot image back in place.
I tried flashing to v6 couldn't download the update then I tried flashing to v4 still couldn't grt the update. I'm waiting for the tot flash file for GB cause you have to have GB to use gb roms I think

Just remember to backup originals and then replace w/ new apk or delete them after they are backed up change permissions and reboot

Agreed, could you post those 4 webtop files so those of us whom it shows up as "unavailable" can attempt to fix it?

I backed up my old Blur-Camera.apk and Blur-Camera.odex to my SD card. Extracted the files from the provided zip to /system/app and fixed permissions to be rw-r--r--. Rebooted, and its' still not showing up. I reverted back to my old camera for now until someone else gets it working.

You're a fool. I've cheesecaked all the way to 5.7. The kernel blocks webtop at some point in the upgrade path. The only way to keep webtop (that has been found) is to go directly from 886 and cheesecake to 5.7, one big jump. If he didn't do that, then this is crucial information in obtaining webtop back for us who did the incremental updates.
Sorry there isn't a search button to help your ignorance and lack of knowledge.
Also, show me one spot in this thread where he listed his upgrade path.

Flash that, then unroot. Or you can use LGPNST to flash the V7 Gingerbread .tot file. Either way will get you back to stock Gingerbread.
I just used this method and didn't have any issues at all getting back to stock, and I was then able to install the ZV8 update as well.
This may be a dumb question, but if I use the one click root/unroot to unroot my phone for this update, do I need to worry about clearing the caches and removing the rom and theme first or can I just run the unroot.bat file and be good to go?
Anyone have an answer please?

You first need to flash the stock rom, then you can click unroot.
You don't have to clear your cache and previous data but it's recommended.
