I flashed 98.72.22 on it and this is screen shot of ( after many other failed methods) virtualbox running droid bionic root jb . ovf
so here is my linux minimal screenshot attempt. . noticed where it starting going wrong is
chmod: pwn: operation not permitted.
rooting phone...
phone may appear to.......
/system/bin/sh: /storage/rfs0/pwn: not found <-------Right here i noticed the file path on the phone and it's ---> storage/rfs1 Would that have something to do w/ it?
nothing ever vibrates and reboots in flash. got bad flash or something?

Hi
Kies killed me when I was just trying to update to Froyo officially. Since then I used Odin 1 click and everything seems ok, except for the fact that its att now. I want to eventually get to official rogers 2.2 froyo with no gremlins lurking hidden in the file system. I downloaded the i896 rogers 2.2 rom. How can I install it so that my phone will be stock 2.2? Same boot loader, same rom, same everything as if the update had gone smoothly through kies. I want it to be rogers only.
Well, thanks to all for you help.
And a special thanks to the Kies programmers. I have bricked devices trying to install unofficial things before but I have never bricked a phone through official channels, Amazing work guys amazing.
Thanks to the xda community for again saving my rear
I think if you search there is a Odin for a stock rogers. I will have to look....
Try this thread for rogers stock rom

Hi,
more problems. Even though ODIN said it was sucessful it just went to the battery icon. Now the phone shows att logo for a second, reboots and does it again. Not even sure if I can get back to download mode! All this for a friggin official update!
ok I need to calm down. But this is really upsetting
I have a AIO rogers 3.0 tool kit, and I have a stock rogers rom. I do not however know how to get it onto my phone. The odin program just has start.
The rogers AIO program has back up to stock but always says cannot communicate with device.
Please help, I have no idea why things have been so messed up.
same happen to a friens of mine that wanted to flash unleashthebeast...and he changed his mine after and i odin one clicked and it did the same...luckily he was under 30 days...but only other option is a jig.

oh and if u can get into download mode your good....if not...a jig
Seriously?
The only way to recover this phone is to make some crazy usb solder jiggy?
My phone shows only ATT or if USB is plugged in, a battery icon. No button combo is working for DL mode, where as it was before.
Any ideas on how else I could get this phone into dl mode?
Thanks again
Chris
Looks like you and I have a similar issue. Subbing to thread for hope.
What about using the AIO toolkit to at least get a working ATT branded phone? I too used the AIO toolkit to flash a custom rom on my Rogers phone and yes, though I don't believe it was supposed to the AIO toolkit put the ATT stock on rather than Rogers stock. However, at least you'd have a working phone at that point. Unless you need to return your phone you can use it as is until you find a proper solution.
I know it's a stopgap solution but working improperly is better than not working at all.

ATT bootscreen problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11327700&postcount=209
in case some of those guys confused you, a jig only helps you if you cant get into download mode. you already flashed successfully after the brick, right? you dont need a jig. follow the instuctions above.
if you get AIO toolkit working (rogers edition) DONT USE A PIT FILE, DONT RE-PARTITION, (pit file is for partitioning). the rogers stock images dont have dbdata to work after repartition. this is what screwed me the other day., and i was forced to use ODIN1 Click. and now have the same ATT bootscreen as you.
as im in the same boat ive been researching and the above method wont work. its only for i9000 based roms. not the stock based roms like the att. and the fix replaces a file named logo_ATNT.jpg (AT&T)
this *fix* isnt too much of a *fix* and i have yet to come across a rogers flash that will replace this att crap.
So that means if we were to return our captivates for a refund, we're stuck with the split second AT&T boot logo. I wonder if they'll mind...
if your phone breaks to the point that you must return it, *MAKE SURE* its broken enough that they cant read/use the phone. Sticking it to the back of a speaker magnet for 10 minutes should do. ive heard of using a microwave fore a few seconds but it may do visible damage.
I just want to post a question about GingerVolt 1.3 for my LG Revolution. I've followed all directions. I Downgraded, restored Revo-Stock. Allowed upgrades. Put CWM back on. Installed GingerVolt 1.3 and I get nothing. When I say nothing, I mean NO SIM. The phone boots and gets to the choose language part, but the SIM card never comes on. I tried other Roms and they all seem to work just dandy. I can't get this one to go. I'd rather post this in the correct thread, but I'm a new user and not allowed to post there yet. Any help would be wonderful. Thanks

Alright, just boot back into cwm and restore the back up that you should have made. When you reboot, make sure that lte/cdma is selected in network type, then flash again.
Have you tried to turn on the phone without the SIM card then reboot with it installed?
I tried both of these. Restoring the backup brings the sim back but going back to GingerVolt 1.3 takes it away again. The phone also reboots every minute or so.
Same thing happens to me so I ended up going back to stock. Try this as it worked once for me. turn phone off, hold down the down volume ket while at the same time holding the power key, don't let go, wait for the LG logo and continue to hold both keys down until you're asked "Permannetly erase User Data & Reset Setting?" push power key for yes . See if that works. It worked for me once.
When you say you upgraded did you make it to v7?

This may be where I'm lost. I downgraded to a stock rom (not sure which one atm but it was one of the suggested ones in the thread) Reloaded Revo-Stock. It did one upgrade to my phone. How do I get to this v7? Thanks for your help.
I was having the same problem but I finally found out that I didn't have gingerbread installed before flashing the rom. I followed the instructions for LGNPST to install the gingerbread tot files to get gingerbread (v7).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1337386
After installing gingerbread then flashing gingervolt... all me "sim not activated" problems were gone.
That did the trick. I should of read more. Took all day to do, but everything is running now.
Thanks Everyone!
Ok so if the answer to this question is already on this forum I searched for a hour and if you could drop me a link that would be great. Last night I flash v10k onto my LG thrill with no hiccups. The only problem is I want to go back to V20p because it changed to a O3D and all I can get is 2g edge service. So this morning I attempted to flash V20p and everything was kosher until it said there was a connection error. "Disconnect phone remove battery..." So i figured I needed to get the phone back into download mode in order to continue. The phone isnt bricked, however, I cant seem to get it back into Download mode to try again. Ive tried everything (that I can think of). Restarted my computer wipe all my phones data... My end goal is to have either v10e or the v20p. So I'm open to any routes to this end. I've read about doing a nandroid backup but all the links are dead. I've already decided I'm going to get the Galaxy Nexus and sell this phone if I can ever get it back to stock or semi stock. This is the second time I've had this connection error the first time it was during the update to GB and that time it bricked it. At the time I thought it was a faulty data cable, however, this time I was using a gold plated gigawire and it still did it... This coupled with the ghost call issue almost costing me my job(the reason for trying to go back to froyo) My experience has been buggy to say the least. Any help at all will be greatly appreciated.

So you want V20P or V10E?
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S II w/ DUAL BOOT: AOKP / MIUI
I really want V10e if its possible but If not then V20p will work.
I am having similar problems when I try as well. I have tried 5 or six times but tells me something about the b2c not loaded or a connection to the internet. Every time I hit "normal web upgrade test" it throws up a pop up and wont let me proceed any further. It has worked for me twice before, I got the no connection pop up and ignored it, but its not working this time. I set everything up the same from instructions on Acidhazzard rom web site. Please help...
I had to change the port back to 80 and put the orig host file back in the ect file just to download the bc2app then change it all back it worked the first time when i flashed v10k... idk i would delete the lg drivers and everything then start from scratch if i could boot into download mode.

I have been starting...
From scratch. I download the LG flash package and go from there. It does it every time I try. The times I got it to work, I would just hit cancel or OK on the pop up and then hit the OK button I was wanting to hit real fast before the pop up could come back up. I thought it may be a Windows 7 issue (cause I have seen people talk about it) and tried win xp yesterday. Same things happened.
Im running Xp and Im having the same exact thing happen. I got it into download mode finally idk what was going on but now I just keep getting the communications error Ive tried the whole process (each one is like 5 errors) like 3 times now. If it keeps popping up before the update even starts then your probably need to change your small server port from 80 to 9002.
fixed
Somehow after getting the com error 100 times with the flash tool I noticed it had changed my model number back to P925 (I don't know how it did this) I then decided to chance it (after I changed the host file back and changed the port back to 80 and closed the small http server) I went through the LG support tool and clicked start update. After about 20 min of uncertainty during the update and another 5 minutes of self-loathing after getting a bootloop on the at&t screen... I did a hard reset and cleared all data and wah-la... I got it back to V20p. But the flash tool wouldn't flash the v20p for me.. So if I didnt somehow get rid of the P920 model number and back to the P925 model number I don't think it would have worked the way it did.
So I recently picked up a Droid Bionic and get it working on Cricket. Everything was great until flashed to ICS. Now when I put it back and try to setup in qspt it gives me an NV SP Change error. In Cdma I try to write a nv file it says successful but at the bottom says unsuccessful so I dont know what the deal is with that. I am looking for some advice as this is current only phone and needed for work. Please help me asap and thanks for everything.
Now it gives NV slot cycle error. Any help really appreciate this. Thanks. Anyone on msn or im would be much help.
So got the phone for 611 to work and calls working now. However the only thing left is to get the 3G working on it as my next step. A lot of work to get it back up and working on ICS.

EDIT: I FINALLY GOT ADAM OUTLERS HEIMDALL 2.2 ROM TO INSTALL.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
So I was running 4.2.2 SlimBean on my Girlfriends phone.
But found out the phone needs to be unlocked.
Then found out you can't unlock a 4.2.2 phone based on AOSP.
So I've been trying like crazy to downgrade to a Froyo or GB ROM so I can unlock phone.
But NOTHING is working.
The odin-one-click's don't work.
The Adam Outler Heimdall just keeps saying there are no drivers for Heimdall, then installs drivers succesfully, then says there are no drivers...
Any Froyo or GB ROM I flash in CWM 6.x.x or older, just gets to boot screen and won't go any further.
I'm flipping annoyed here. Help!
My googling has worn my fingers numb and I gotta have someone take pity on me and tell me what the frack to do.
I've soft bricked this phone about fifteen times so far. The dang "computer & phone" screen thing has been kicking my butt over and over. Glad I finally got a fix for that. But, I keep bricking the phone again afterwards. ugh...
HOW THE HECK DO I GO ABOUT DOWNGRADING THIS PHONE ?!?

I use Win 7 computer, original Samsung USB cable, correct drivers + run Odin one-click as Administrator and it works perfectly every time. Had to go back to stock GB a few times, no issues.
Well I don't know what combo of driver & kernel & other stuff worked, but I finally got the Odin One Click thing working. Not all of them work, but I found one that did (I897UCKF1_withBL). Even then, it only works about 1/2 of the time.
Flashed a 2.3.3
But after rooting it, I lost WiFi ability.
And so couldn't unlock it.
And this forum is full of DEAD links for everything I need that is old enough to unlock a phone.
awwrrghhh I'm ready to throw this phone against the wall.
AT&T already gave me the code to unlock it. And I have a new unused AT&T SIM installed, though it sounds like that may be a problem also. I might need a non-AT&T SIM to unlock.
