[Q] One Last Attempt Before I Terminate :-) - LG Revolution

Backdrop:
1) Phone from a friend took over his contract.
2) Attempted to reset to default
3) Phone will only boot to CWM 4.0.0.2
Tried:
1) All parts of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19154278
The 'tot' files would not install, got 'block count' errors
2) Found mtmichaelson's RevoZV7GBStock.zip... It had a successful install (yay) but it still boots to CWM (boo)
3) Grabbed mtmichaelson's GingerVolt 2.0, downloaded it, it successfully installed (yay) but booted to CWM (boo)
4) Also have used LGPNST with no success
Conclusion: HELP!!
I can install certain ROMs but it is as if the bootloader does not doesn't load. Maybe something needs to be set, like Windows needs that "Primary Disk - Boot" information...
I have 7 days, and then I'm paying my termination fee before the next bill date.
I will appreciate any help or suggestions.
Thanks everyone!

Does lgnpst detect your phone? Have you tried to flash the tot from emergency form load mode?

He said the tots would not install that he got block count errors so his phone would of had to of been detected to get any errors. And did this phone boot at all when you first got it or did it only boot into CWM?

Yes, it does recognize my phone, but it can't load the 'tot' file, I get a process error about 'blocks not counted'
I don't know anything about 'emergency form load mode'. Please enlighten me.
Thank you!

Yes the phone booted, however when I removed his account after adding mine, the phone warned me it was going back to default settings.

Yes the phone booted into Gingerbread and could make and receive phone calls, however when I removed the original owner's account after adding mine, the phone warned me it was going back to default settings and it wound up in this state

First-time poster here. I can't seem to find the RevoZV7GBStock.zip file. I've found links to it (from mtmichaelson's thread), but it looks like his Mediafire account is suspended. Does anyone else know where I could get this file?

You should let us know if what you have already done with success, too. That is, before it bricked.
Maybe sleep it over, too.

Try a different USB port.
Follow these instructions: http://briefmobile.com/droid-bionic-receives-fastboot-recovery-files
Use the complete FXZ.
been using those instructions since bionics release. its a no go
you cannot flash boot.img. you will always get errors on that one, its the kernel.

[Q] LG Thrill GB w/ClockworkMod Recovery

(Obvious Noob warning---) A friend helped me root my Thrill, install ClockworkMod Recovery, and then install CM7 on my Thrill. But I would like to try the LG GB release. Is it necessary to backtrack all the way back to stock to do this (i.e. reinstall the stock ROM, reinstall the stock recovery, unroot, etc.)?
My friend tried using the LG upgrade tool on his LG phone without going back to stock and ended up bricking it. He says that usually within a few days of release, a CMR compatible zip file (usually already rooted) appears here on XDA (I haven't seen it), which makes things easier (but obviously he didn't wait for it himself).
Will a zip be possible for the Thrill GB? (The file seems quite large (420MB), so I'm guessing there is a lot of media included.) Or should I just bite the bullet and backtrack?

Trojan?
Sorry, but as a noob, I can't post in that other thread.
It seems that the shttp3.exe in the LG Flash Package triggers Symantec's trojan detection. Some searching seems to indicate (assuming I'm reading all the cryptic virus sites correctly) that there is something to this, although it seems that different scanners find different trojans/viruses (can't post the link, but Google for "shttp3.exe" and "trojan"). I also found that the web site for this utility is blocked at work, because it's a "malicious site."
Has anyone seen this? Has anyone been able to verify/refute this?
Rick
There is no virus, Lestat would never do that

Just my .02 .....Get rid of Symantec !! They are known for scaring people into a virus frenzy.. Yes, it is possible that it is seeing it as a potential virus because shttp is a workaround from the usual porting of windows ip services. ...
Correct me if i'm wrong somebody please !!
Get yourself Comodo and save your money...
Regards,
Dwayne
PS: somebody on here has written a script that just uses shttp temporarily while
your doing the flash procedure, and then reverts your host files back automatically after your done. You should try it.

I'm sorry I can't give the link yet, but if you'll Google you'll see Comodo classifies shttp3.exe as "ApplicUnwnt.Win32.ServerWeb.SmallHTTP.~A" or "UnclassifiedMalware" (I guess depending on the version). A number of scanners find issues with shttp3.exe. I'm not saying it is infected, only that it is doing something suspicious.

shttp3.exe is in no way a virus. I've scanned with AVG and MalwareBytes Anti-Malware and they check out good.
Back to square one
OK, I seem to be stuck.
With paranoia in tow, I decided to take the long way back to stock. Unfortunately, when I tried to restore the backup of my stock image I made to SD card after installing CMR, the md5 checksum failed. I'm not sure what I can do about this.
So ok, I tried following the above link. The first step is to ensure the su binary is up-to-date. But when I tried this, I get a failure downloading the manifest. This is true for WiFi and HSPA+. I Googled and found a suggestion to delete the su binary. But that didn't help (I'm not sure how it would have helped anyway).
So back to the original question. Can I use the LG upgrade process to upgrade without going backwards (as you can see above, I can't) without bricking the phone? Can I start at step 3 in the link above and succeed?

Is it safe to ignore the su version update?
Short of this, can I override the MD5 checksum? I realize that image could be corrupt, but if I'm just going to replace it with the GB release, does that matter?

You should just put your phone in recovery mode and update through the tool
with your IMEI #. It will give you the latest update !
If you need some help on that I think Lestat or somebody has a write-up
on doing this.
Good luck,

Can you be a bit more specific?
1. By "recovery mode," do you mean into ClockworkMod Recovery, or I should revert to stock (I made a copy of it after I rooted the stock ROM, but before I installed CMR)?
2. By "the tool," do you mean the official LGMobile Software Update, or the LG Flash Package referenced in the link above?
3. By "latest update," do you mean the file directly from LG, or the copy (v20p) linked from the link above?
4. If the latter in both previous questions, which set of steps do I need to follow from the above link? Can I do only 3 (LG Flash Tool), or do I need to follow 1 (Recovery Manager), 2 (Returning to Stock), and 3?
My friend had a different LG phone, with ClockworkMod Recover and CM7 installed. He reverted the CM7 to stock, but did not replace CMR with the stock recovery. Then he used the official LG upgrade method and bricked his phone. I'm trying to avoid this.
Are you saying I don't have to worry about this on the LG Thrill 4G? Can I go straight from the current CMR+CM7 configuration to the LG GB release using the official LG process?
If you mean I should use a different process, can you point me to it? As I mentioned, I run into dead-ends using the method linked above. And I'm not even sure whether I should be doing steps 1, 2 and 3, or if I should just use step 3.
Any and all help is appreciated, but I guess I don't understand the shorthand you're using here, so if you could be a bit more specific, I wouldn't feel so lost.

Remove your battery and keep the phone unplugged
Launch the mobile updater tool
Hold the volume+ button plug the phone in and keep holding the volume+ till the computer downloads the drivers your phone is now in download mode
Once the phone is picked up go to customer support on the LG updater tool and click on recovery phone put your imie number in click check (make sure its the right model) an let the updater tool do its job. Once its done flashing launch into recovery volume- plus power plus 3D button do a complete wipe and factory reset and reboot your phone ... you'll lose cwm and root and be back to full stock

Bricked?
No joy. Following the steps, the upgrade stopped at 6%. Trying a number of times, it eventually forced me to exit the program (no more restarts). Rerunning the updater (and downloading the 420 MB image yet again on a VERY slow connection) I tried again and again, with different combinations of battery and plug order with power and volume buttons, but nothing worked. Checking elsewhere I found some issues had been reported with Windows Vista/7, so I tried on an XP machine. Now the "Start Updating" bar is red (it was always gray with W7). But now when I try to restore (or even update for that matter), it asks for my S/N (it never did that before) and then says it is "no longer able to upgrade." Reading around, it seems this is an indication of the device being bricked.
Rick
It sounds like you are very close to getting it working Rick.
My update did the same thing, looped over and over until it
finally kicked me out. Just plugging and unplugging the phone etc....
And when my update stuck at 6% the last time, i took my battery out and then in real quick and that seemed to work.
Does the phone still vibrate when you plug the usb cable into it while holding volume..? If it does then I highly doubt that your phone is bricked, just in a semi flashed state....No worries
Should Rick be trying to run LG Updater as administrator ? I didn't, but it might not hurt.

Dwayne

I tried a bunch of different combinations...none seemed to make the app happy. I finally punted Windows 7 and moved to an XP machine, only to get the "no longer able to update" message. At that point I assumed I was screwed (effectively bricked).

It never really vibrated, but I was able to get back into CMR. Unfortunately NONE of my backups work at all. They all have MD5 checksum failures. I tried a trick I found online and got past that step, only to have it say a failure restoring /system. So much for CMR.

Which step? As I mentioned above, I can't even get the first step of the first section (updating the su binary). And if I start at the 3rd section, Symantec prohibits me from using shttp3.exe (I tried to unquarantine it, but it gives a permission error, even as Administrator, when I try to run it), so I'll have to use a different machine.
I was able to reinstall the CM7 3/15 release, so that's something. I was going to restore the stock recovery backup I made, but even that doesn't seem to work. I'm having issue with backups :-(
Rick
i have never been able to restore a backup. i dont know why... but i have tried several times in several different instances.

[Q] I Still Don't Get It...

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

16. Select "VS910ZV4_04.S4_04.P58008.R5.user.tot" and Click OK
17. Then click on Upgrade
It says "The file can't be open.
Any ideas?

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!

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.

Now for this part. It's not rooting. And yes, I have ZV8 on my phone, now. I have a root-required app on my phone just to test to see if it's rooted and it keeps saying that it is not. I'm such a noob, I know. Sorry :-/

[Guide} Bionic to ICS w/Files

These files and steps will get your Bionic on ICS with root. Follow directions carefully and enjoy.
To make it simple and help I have made a 1 file tar to download. Contents include FXZ to 902 then supplied 902_905 and .230 files with RSD and new Moto Drivers. Also includes Rooting script.
http://android.mattsimoni.com/Bionic.tar
Code:
// Use at your own risk, I'm not responsible for anything that happens to your phone. This is the method I choose to do this and it worked without fail.
// You have been warned, now have fun and jump on the band wagon!!
** 902_905.zip treat like a normal update.zip and flash through stock recovery
** 6.7.230 ICS Bionic.zip you will need to unzip before flashing
**Install Flashing Process**
First back up both SDCARDS and format each
then RSD back to .902
When it boots up for the first time, bypass activation and stuff by touching the 4 corners of the screen
Top Left - Top Right - Bottom Right - Bottom Left
Add 902_905 zip to SDCARD
Reboot into recovery flash ZIP
When it boots up for the first time, bypass activation and stuff by touching the 4 corners
Top Left - Top Right - Bottom Right - Bottom Left
Add 6.7.230 ICS Bionic.zip and crc file to SDCARD
Reboot into recovery flash ZIP
When its boots up it will be ICS, dont panic wait a few minutes and your set.
**Rooting Process**
Install New MOTO Drivers
Put phone into USB Debugging Mode
Confirm you put your phone into USB Debugging Mode
Click run.bat from the Root Folder.
You are now rooted.
Super..
You are amazing, ty...
Ok I have been trying to post this for a bit now, I am running rooted Bionic .2233 very smooth and easy process. However, when I installed Avast anti virus Avast came back and told me that a program called Verizon Remote Diagnostic too is using a high SMS priority and Avast will not work properly with it installed. Avast at this point offered to uninstall and, of course, this tool will not uninstall. I googled this tool and I saw a Verizon rep saying something like this is a tool for customer service and sits in the background and does not mine data. Anyone else hear of this tool? Is there a way to freeze or due bloat? I don't like the idea that Verizon did this, the rep also said this tool was for the LG Optimus?? Is this leak originally for the Optimus?

Thanks though for the quick response.

That was really easy - now one question: Is there are restore process torestore the internal and External SD cards that we backed-up?
OR should I just drag/drop what I need?
Thanks again -
Ok I have a silly question.
I followed the instructions and RSD back to 902. The problem is when I boot into recovery I get the Android guy with the !
I am able to take the 905 update and that worked just fine.
I was unable to apply 905 or ICS from this thread or any others.
I have tried to search various places but can't find the same problem.

did you unroot before you did all of this? try that and see if it works.
AWSOME ...!!!
This worked GREAT ... I followed the instructions as listed and am now running ICS - BTW make sure that your battery has a good charge on it BEFORE attempting ANY flashing ...!
My battery went too low while flashing - I thought I bricked it (would not charge after) I had to borrow a battery from a buddy.
Rookie mistake I know ...
Thanks again I will update if I find any bugs.
Bricked?
I downloaded to my unrooted stock 905 bionic last night and ran the update. All went successful until I rebooted. I received a great error message..
Code:
Invalid CG OTV (CG: webtop): Invalid SP Data
Invalid CG HAB (CG: webtop, status: 0x004E)
Invalid CG OTV (CG: webtop)
I tried going back to 902 using the FXB and RSDLite, but it fails. It worked the first time and failed at 19/20.. now it fails at 1/20 (aka immediately). I tried using laptop, desktop, two USB cords, etc. Any ideas on how to unbrick? I'll update this thread if I figure out how to fix it.

Can't Download files..
this ICS leak unlock Global GSM, Right?
what is the reason for formatting the sd cards?
my phone hasn't been rooted and i'm on 905 already. i'm just in it for the ics, i haven't had a need for root, as of yet.
Just install the 233 leak works great and i didnt format the sd cards, so i dont see the need of that.
I was using the gsm hack but after the install i cant get signal and i cant change the network type in settings, ICS for the bionic will open the global feature? If not can i re apply the gsm patch? or maybe use radiocomm
Thanks
Okay quick question I downloaded the .tar file, this makes the second time. Seems the root file is empty. After both downloads it still seems to be this way. Can I just use voodoo or is there another way? Thanks
Thanks for posting this. Also, i don't remember if I was on .893 or what I was on for stock. What if I never went past .893? thanks.
Can you just use cheesecake.apk to get the 905 and leaked ICS updates? thanks.

Think I bricked my phone... "your device is corrupted...", then shuts off

Okay, I was trying to root my phone and I guess after the first step of "fastboot oem unlock", I did the reset, and after it booting up to the activating sim card screen, I turned the phone off and booted back into the bootloader.
Then I downloaded the Auto-Root file. And when I ran it, it gave me some errors.
So now the phone doesn't boot at all. I get the error message, then the phone either powers down or just goes black and it never finishes loading.
Every thread I have searched talked about "restoring a factory image" or what not. But the problem is, now I don't have USB Debugging Enabled and can't enable it anymore since I can't get into the phone menu.
Recovery Mode leads to an error.. I can get into the bootloader, but can't do much from it since USB debugging is disabled.
any ideas? or am I just screwed.
I think I figured it out, after finding this thread.

Switch to browser view, it will work.
its not an error, its a message that google put into marshmallow to show up when you are modifying your phone. there are VERY MANY of these threads here on xda.
Yep, there is lots of resources on this issue. I'm guessing you used an old auto-root file. The fix would probably be to manually flash a system image.
