This is not a development question, can we please move this to Q&A or General?
Also, in case it wasn't already clear:
YOU CAN NOT UPDATE 1.52 TO 1.57. PERIOD.
Someone might at some point pull out the parts of the update and roll it into something you can flash over anything, but I highly doubt it as it's a pain in the ass and doesn't offer much benefit. Just backup your system with TiBu and flash back to 1.2.6, follow the proper procedure, and restore your backup (NOT system apps though). Not really all that hard.

no unroot.zip does not exist but you can unroot by removing "su" "busy box" "sqlite3" files from /system.xbin to unroot your device

Hi Dhlalit11,by removing that files could I regain my warranty or not? Please tell me. Thanks

you will get the warranty as you were having while you purchase the device but the device must contains a stock rom

Does installing cwm also void warranty ? Please tell me. And thanks for your help .

if you have downloaded any firmware open the firmware file with alphazip there you will see recovery file extract it then with alphazip create a .tar file and put recovery in that tar file then flash the tar file with Odin in PDA section you will get stock recovery.

I have to say you sorry because neither i have downloaded any firmware nor I can use odin to flash anything because I haven't any computer,so please tell me any other process like above you tell me about unrooting .Thank you for helping me.

He already answered your problem.. Do what he said using root explorer.. You don't need a pc to do this.. Uninstall superuser app I must add..
If you have cwm installed and you don't have a pc, then that would be a problem.. Not heard of a stock recovery flashable through cwm..

the only way to your problem was mobile Odin but mobile Odin is not compatible with sgm so a PC is the single solution you can use a friends pc

Hi , what is done by flashing cwm? I guess either it replace some files in system by deleting them or overwrite them . If someone knows about those files then we could get stock recovery back .or not?
And one question more. How to hard reset after flashing cwm?
The hard reset code *2767*3855# now not working.
Thanks for your kind help.

please read 10th post of this thread for removing cwm
to hard reset go to recovery (by switching on the phone while pressing home+power button) then scroll up and down with volume buttons, scroll down to delete data and factory reset(something like this)and press menu button to select it
code will not work as it is now cwm recovery

Hi Mr Dhlalit I have read that post and thanks for help. I just only want to know about the effect of flashing cwm on system files so that we can backup the effected files by root explorer .

First page of the development section, about 15 threads down (stock rooted Gingerbread):

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.

Just run the exe file to open the toolkit. First, if NVFlash drivers are not installed, select that option (I) to install the driver.
Then, select the option which you want. Each option's detailed description (what it does) is explained here in the first post. Read it completely and you should be able to use the toolkit.
If you are still having doubts, tell us, what do you wish to do exactly with the toolkit? Flash a new bootloader? Change partition size? Flash recovery?

Hi, i have a stock P990 upgraded to GB v20e. for some magical reason, LG does not want/allow me to upgrade to ICS.
I just want to upgrade to ICS and i dont quite understand why i should NVflash first?
could someone please point me on which post# or link how to use this tool?
currently downloading it and hoping that it isnt that hard.
could i simply go #6 from the tool? or do i need to though each steps?

Philippines v20e, it was the latest at that time and I never bothered to update to the latest GB version again.
Just found out that LG Blocks upgrades to ICS if you have an older OS version.
I called customer service and they recommend sending my phone to the service center to upgrade it to ICS (pay fee if not under warranty).
btw, i downloaded the tool from the above link, i went straight to option #6 - updated to ICS using the stock KDZ files.
----the option to the change recovery using nzflash didnt work, cannot detect usb devices. went straight to #6 and didnt bother the other options. i have no idea what other options does or their purpose.

Most features in this tool requires a rooted phone. If all you want is to update your stock ROM, you don't need to flash a recovery (and you won't be able to either if your phone is not rooted).
Using nvflash, you have to unplug your phone between operations. Only one nvflash operation can be performed at a time.

Not true. You can nvflash a recovery without your phone being rooted.

I think of you dont understand the Manual or the Simplicity of this Tool you should not use it anyway. some basic skills in Android are needed. I may sound harsch but thats what it is. If you dont understand than maybe you brick your Phone and then its the developer to blame... Seen this tons of times... sadly. :crying:

Try Flashing a Euro Open found here http://lg-phone-firmware.com/ with kdz flash tool.......and please stop making so many threads about each and every question. And if you must do it then post it Q & A section. Thanks.

Ok, i will try that out. Should i flash over the existing v20a, or downgrade first...??

I do not think that you need to downgrade to 10H for that ....... If it does not work then you can downgrade to 10H but I am quite sure that it will work and you won't lose any data.
Good Luck.

You cant get eur xxx. Why would you want anyway?

Sorry to hijack the thread :good:
Did you manage to get your phone onto the EURO Firmware or you just unlocked your current firmware ?
To unlock the phone and install a custom ROM I take it that you must root the device first so :-
1) root
2) Unlock
3) cwm
4) custom rom
I am coming from a Galaxy S2 which I did not have to root just use ODIN so thats why I am asking because I want to go straight to custom CM10

I unlocked 262-001..... And
