I installed a custom rom and it worked. But when i change it back to the default rom via backup rom, it showed a message "ERROR, LG SECURITY TEAM!". And it stayed that way. I tried using the S/W update but it stayed on the page for 2hours without any results. I tried using B2CappSetup but it wasn't able to install on my computer. Help please! I just want to factory reset it!
There's plenty of answers for your question in Forums. Use the Search button and you'll recover your phone.
Now, calm down and read THIS useful thread made by @Ilko. It's better than spamming forums by writing questions that has been answered many times before.
I did try and find for the whole day. I found only one similar to my case but they are left unanswered. So i was hoping by making this thread i could recover my phone back
There's problem with your computer. For most of us flashing via KDZU works without any problems. If you manage to properly install drivers and launch KDZU your phone will recover from this error. Clean up your comp or try with another.
This happened to me. Try renaming the KDZ file to its base name, like V10A.00 something like that

C'mon, it's not the problem of file naming as he already said that he wasn't able even to install B2CApp. First, he must cleanup his computer, install correct drivers and other stuff.

Hello all,
Okay, I'm a total noob when it comes to the LG Revo. I had my D1 and my DX and I worked it all out and had it setup and rooted just fine, but the LG and this OTA ZV8 update is killing me. So here is my dilemma.
First I don't get the lingo...clockworkmod (CWM) = boot screen/command screen, right...like dos kinda?
Second, flash? What is that is that where I hold power + volume down button to get boot/command/dos screen, when phone is powered off?
Okay now for the good crazy stuff. I had my Revo rooted, got the update, failed. Figured it was because the root was on it, so unrooted to push OTA update, still fail...is still epic failing and is getting on my last nerve, so badly I'm ready to throw my phone...and I've never wanted to that to my babies (phones). Anyway, unrooted still failing update.
Was on another forum where very nice guy gave me stuff to do, tried it however, when did the "Flash" it only wiped my phone and put it back to stock. Had phone plugged into computer via USB...tried to follow http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583023 but after phone wiped didn't know what to do. This is where I am now, with a wiped phone and this has been since 9am pdt.
Hope this all makes since. Can anyone offer any help here? I'd like to get my Revo back up and running and I'd really love to get my apps back on so I can function.
Thanks for understanding and your help is greatly appreciated. Oh, please talk to me like I'm a noob lol...Or I won't get it, I promise I will do my best and try not to sound as dumb as I feel right now.
Thanks &
*Edit* I forgot, I read somewhere that in order to use CWM the phone had to be rooted so I couldn't've flashed to it anyway? Is that wrong information?
The reason why your update fails is because you haven't taken off CWM I'd point you in the right direction but I'm doing this by phone

Thanks Gel, at your earliest convenience will you please walk me through it? I'd really appreciate it and would be a very happy camper if you get back functioning.
I wish I could explain how I did it. I thought I updates to V8 with no root and was really mad but then somehow I had root.

Guess what...phone has not tried to update since I wiped it. Running fine though. Uh...have only tried to push update manually once. Had guy here try to help me but we got lost with the zv7 it wouldn't let me upload from the site linked here. As I'm running 2.2.2. He said I needed to be on zv7 before I could get to zv7. Anyway all is okay so far will try this again this weekend.

Ok... here is what you do to get root. Follow that thread and install the v8 tot.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1337386
After the lgpnst program completes (around 20min) successfully you will be running the latest v8.
Once that is done. Connect your phone set the usb to internet and turn on debugging from the settings | applications | development section and then follow this the instructions in this thread. Unzip the file and run the bat file and follow the directions in the command window.

Typed "." with both just the dot and then again with the quotes and nothing. According to my computer the file is on C:\ but I can't find it in LGNPST there. And it's not in any of my other files that I can see.
I think I did something wrong...But I followed it exact. Becoming very disconcerted with my Revo.
At that point you should explore into the directory where you put the .tot file. Copy the location, go back to the LG tool and paste the directory location. It should allow you to open the file. If you have any problems please respond.

Ok, so moving along on this lol...I've followed all of the instructions. Downloaded, uploaded, installed, copied, pasted, created new folders, dragged and dropped everything it told me to do.
This file "C:/VS910ZV4_04.S4_04.P58008.R5.user.tot.bin" is only showing up in my computer as a shortcut, not as a file. This is after researching and finding it on my computer. Did I do something wrong? Am I downloading an incorrect file? I'm not sure where this particular file came from as, everything else is as described in the "how to" threat.
I think I may have figured it out. Will get back to you. Thanks again!!
*EDIT* Was told to use VS910ZV7_10.S7_10.P58008.R5.tot ... did...it updated...now to see what to do next. That other was was ZV4 and the one I just updated to is ZV7... woot wish me luck...manually pushed zv8 update...no failure this time...it was successful. yay!

So there's an OTA out there (19.8MB, nothing big), but when it rebooted to update, it got stuck in CWM and I couldn't flash it there. I intended to pull the zip so we could make it flashable (and by "we", I mean someone more skilled than I), but I don't see it on the phone when it's plugged in, and when I check Software Update again, it says no update is available.
I'm well aware that flashing the OTA will likely kill root for me, but at this point, I don't really care. I'm hoping this OTA fixes the few bugs I'm having with the phone, and that's more than worth losing root over for me.
EDIT:
Posted the update in the development forum.

The DL is working again.:good:
Well, I'm no noob when it comes to working with HTC devices as I successfully unlocked the bootloader and rooted my One X with no problems back in the day. However, I'm running into a problem with the HTC First. I have unlocked the bootloader, and I am attempting to use the Toolkit to install a custom recovery. Unfortunately, when I try to do so, it gives me the following text:
'C:\Documents' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\First_All-In-One_Kit_v1.0\data>
After that it just hangs there and doesn't do anything. I'm not quite sure why it's doing that, nor do I understand why it's trying to access a non-existent folder in C:\
Any insight would be much appreciated.

adb won't recognize my phone. I use the toolkit to install the HTC drivers, but when I run the first script it get a "device not found message"
I'll try this on my laptop, see if it makes a difference. I have rooted many phones with this computer: Xperia X8, Xperia Sola, Atrix 4G, Atrix 2 and adb has always shown something when I run "adv devices" command.
I'm open to suggestions though! I'm running windows 7 Ultimate 64bit, in case this information in useful.
I'm just a new member (it's my first post in fact). I would like to ask a question directly to spyrosk (development-related thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2020737) about the Toolkit developed by him, but as being a new member I'm not permitted to do so. Besides, I'm just an user, I'm not a developer at all, so my question below can seem stupid...
I used his toolkit installing the official ROM ICS 4.0.4 on my LG (using option 6 of the Toolkit). I want to root my phone but I have some doubts when launching its option 3, that are:
1) It says to choose one of the zip files from SU folder. There are three zip files in there. Assuming that my phone is already running ICS 4.0.4, I think that I can choose the SU313-BIN311_4ICS.zip, is that correct?
2) The procedure to put the phone on NVFlash says to press and hold both Vol- and Vol+ while plugging the micro-uSB into the phone. But until when? I mean, is it required to keep pressing both buttons during the hole process? The instructions is not very clear at this point...
3) It also says that the procedure will detect the current partition layout and ask you to choose a compatible recovery image. I don't have any idea what's talking about... What should be my choice?
In time: I used the V30A_00.kdz, obtained from the http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php?id_mod=3 site. The firmware is IMM76L.LG-P990-P99030a.1211302332.
Can anyone help me with these questions?
I am not Spyrosk but i have used this amazing tool...
For the option 3, simple way is to hold the buttons until the computer or your laptop recognizes your mobile.after that you can release it...it is the same for any of the procedures mentioned.
For the partition sizes i think it is in the thread and you can search. ICS requires higher partition.....but I'd you are in the ics by smart flashing or by kdz method, you are in the new boot loader and i don't think you need to change the sizes....but I'd you want the old boot loader....then you need to have the bigger partitions....but search inn the thread
Hope this helps you to start

Hi SREEPRAJAY,
Thanks for your reply. In fact you clarified just one of my three questions above. I´ve read the hole thread but didn´t find the answer for my remaining questions... Could someone else help me with this? I don´t want to try procedures on my phone that I´m not confident to do.
Regards,
for the first question...just flash it.as you have flashed the kdz before and on 4.0.4, you have to just flash it.nothing more is required.
and if you are on 4.0.4, then you dont need to re-create the partitions.if flashed with the kdz method, then you are on the new boot loader. to check that...once you flash the SU file in the AIOT.....just enter the recovery by power+volume down key simultaneously...if you see the pink LG logo, then you are on the new one....if on the white LG logo, then you are on the old boot loader.
let me know if there is anything more

Hi SREEPRAJAY,
Sorry, but the more you try to help and explain to me, the more confused I got. I still have doubts. Sorry for that. Let's try again:
1) It says to choose one of the zip files from SU folder. There are three zip files in there. Assuming that my phone is already running ICS 4.0.4, which file must I choose? Can I choose any one? What's the difference between them?
2) Answered OK. Thanks for that.
3) It also says that the procedure will detect the current partition layout and ask you to choose a compatible recovery image. What will I be supposed to choose? What recovery image is the toolkit referring to?
Sorry again, but, as stated on my first post, I'm just an user (not developer) trying to get full control of my phone, and trying to learn more about all those things...
Tks,

Hi SREEPRAJAY,
Sorry, but the more you try to help and explain to me, the more confused I got. I still have doubts. Sorry for that. Let's try again:
1) It says to choose one of the zip files from SU folder. There are three zip files in there. Assuming that my phone is already running ICS 4.0.4, which file must I choose? Can I choose any one? What's the difference between them?

Choose anyone for the first question.you have already mentioned the file name in your first post i think
For the third, i am using the twrp 2.5 which is the most convenient.cwm is used with volume button keys, but twrp is more convenient with touch interface and also customizable with themes.
I am on my mobile and i am unable to look into more details.sorry for that
I hope you can proceed with this.

Hi SREEPRAJAY,
I have good news! I've just done the procedure to root my LG using the option 3's toolkit, and it ran fantastic! :good: But, I have some suggestions to Spyrosk. The toolkit gives you the choice to select one of the three compatible recovery:
1 - ICS-cwm-5.0.2.8e.img
2 - ICS-cwm-6.0.2.5.img
3 - ICS-twrp-2.4.1.0.img
I chose option 1, at random... I mean, I didn't have any idea at all what were the differences between those three options. Wouldn't be nice if Spyrosk give a little bit explanation about what the toolkit is asking us, I mean, giving a minimal explanation about what are cwm and twrp, and its purposes?
By the way, where I can find and learn more the basics of all this stuff, including cwm and twrp? I mean, I installed this with cross fingers and closed eyes, because I dont have any idea of what I had to choose. That's why I chose at random, option 1. Was it a good choice? I mean, what's the difference between cwm 5.0.2.8e and 6.0.2.5?
In time: now I have my phone running ICS 4.0.4 and ROOTED. I verified using the TitaniumBackup that asked for root access, I gave it, and it ran ok. Now I intend to restore some applications that were previously backup. You don't even need to install SuperOneClick or UnlockRoot to do it. This toolkit is really awesome!
Yessss!
Thanks
For the guide, you need to check and search .....if you don't want, check my signature(the big one)....have the links there

1. Install RAZRi drivers
2. Download ADB files (ADB is a comandline-tool, google how to use)
3. Connect your RAZRi to PC and check if ADB shows it as device.
4. Follow the Steps from the Link
Works maybe only on JB! (you can try it on ICS)

ok, than you have to extract the zip-Archiv (TwerkMyMoto-1.0.zip) in the ADB-Folder.
Sorry, i have missed that step...
The 3 files have to be together with the adb.exe in one folder!
good luck!
Never mind.
I used vroot to root both Razr I's without unlocking the Bootloader. Worked instantly. And then I used Dr. Fones software to search for the files, but it was gone beyond repair. So thanks for the input here, and thanks to Motorola or android whoever wasn't capable to install a recycle bin from the factory.

Most likely it isnt beyond repair. You never touched the boot or other partitions. Just flash the installed stock ROM by rsd lite. And all will be as good as new.
But why do u use vroot? Why not a working one from this device forum. And before u wine about a recycle bin left out, its not windows, linux or anything. Its your fault, read what it does. And if u don't know what u are doing, read how to repair things before even starting to use tools like this. But if I totally misunderstood you, I am sorry!

Are you friggin kidding me?
Instead of helping you are critizing me and start a personal attack by saying it's my fault!?
UNBELIEVABLE!
First off, I started a topic here weeks ago trying to get help to recover my file. Well, guess what, no help, no response!
Then I asked for help to root, cause NONE of the "working" solutions I found here worked for a locked bootloader RazrI !!!!
So now after I used Vroot, which worked instantly you come around!?
The file I tried to recover is gone. It was an audio file that meant a lot to me. Gone forever, and yes thanks for rubbing it in, yes my fault because i ACCIDENTALLY deleted it, by swiping over the file.
And yes, if a recycle bin would have been included from the factory everyone could have recovered that file in a heartbeat without making a doctor in computer systems, without rooting. Or any other modifications.
Thanks for your post, as it goes to show how bad some people are.
Sorry to hear the complete story.
But your post was only about "TwerkMyMoto". Nothing more!
If you had given us more info we could help you better.
