Or see if you can boot into Recovery Mode, you may be able to do something there.
Yea see if you can boot into recovery and do a hard reset from there bud

I did a factory reset from recovery but it didn't work.
Where did you get it? You should have 30 days to switch phones
1. To pick a different phone
2. Or to swap from a thrill 4 a thrill
I've alrealy used 2 different phones from bestbuy I'm not sure how many times they allow you to do so I think once so I may be stuck with the thrill which is okay I really want the galaxy 2 tho..

this didnt recover mine either.
No big deal. Swapped mine out today. I will hold on to the phone til the GS2 comes out, and then im switching.
ADB isn't recognizing the phone either. I believe I left it in USB Debugging mode before this all happened, but maybe that got reset when I did the factory reset and therefore it isn't enabled anymore.
Isn't the SG2 RELEASING ON SEP 16?

you are correct... any setting you may have altered in your phone is saved in the phone's data partition... the build.prop which im assuming you edited is saved in the system partition.. a factory reset only wipes the data partition, this means the setting you enabled for usb debug is set back to default and the build.prop you edited is left the way you edited it in the system partition completely unaffected... best chance is to wait for a manual CWM

the errors i got.. while trying to do a master reset. were
E; cannot open recovery/log cache,
E; cannot mount recovery/log cache,

I thought I might open this up since I didn't see it anywhere. Anyway, ill start with my side.
I was on revolt 1.5 (big thanks mtm) and had a haphazard way of getting to zv7. Anyway, I restored stock without wiping, both system and boot.img from thecubeds original factory band, started up fine. Then used revotoolkit to restore stock recovery, downloaded the update and updated sucessfully. I then rooted with the esteem method, free and clear, and restored, among other things, my apps with data that I backed up in ti. Everything was generally fine, with minor hiccups from restoring app data so just manually wiped data from problem apps one by one. After that, gingervolt had come out and I figured that if I flash it over my current setup, worse case scenario I go back and wipe data and install from scratch. But, as luck had it, after taking awhile to rebuild the dalvik cache, everything was fine and dandy.
So how did yours go? Any stories or experiences? Thought this would be good for general discussion and as insight for everyone.

yes tell all as I have heard going right from v4 to v7 was a no go.
You beat me to the punch...I was on Revolt 1.5 and loving it but I want GB. So I downgraded to the stock rooted nandroid backup found here. I went to settings> about phone> software update and...nothing. I tried a few times, I waited for awhile and nothing. I then flashed the z4 tot file, nothing, I updated the z6 file and rooted that and nothing (see a pattern?) I am currently running the Z6 rooted file.
Any help would be appriciated. By the way mtmichaelson you are the man.
I think we are all in the same boat Verizon hasn't uploaded the update to the servers we can download from for now I'm staying stock rooted with stock recovery until they push the update to me so that i can install it when it gets here basically the only thing we can do is wait

My impressions
I was patient and stuck with a CWM/rooted stock V4 ROM.
I uses MT's ROM stock and followed instructions and upgraded through OTA to GB without a hitch. I also erased the internal SD to remove any gremlins from past experimentation.
I used his root zip and it when without a hitch except for the CWM recovery not sticking after reboot.
I notice that the audio output is louder, not one single crash or forced close, faster 4G and GPS, and faster charging. I plan to wait to see how the custom ROMs perform before flashing it and hopefully the CWM issue will be resolved soon.
We all need to thank everyone who has made this possible!
Just curious, what part of the country are you guys in that can't get the update?
I can't get the update and I'm in central California.

As far as secrets, I cant think of many hidden things I did. A little more detailed though, I had revolt 1.5, backed up everything, and didnt wipe any data.
I went to cwr, made a nand backup, and without wiping anything went straight to flash thecubed's root nandroid rip with advanced restore, with the stock system.img and boot.img, and that booted fine.
Then in android, I used revotoolkit to flash the stock recovery, and I think its this step that at least partially 'allows' the update. I guess something where it checks what is installed to check if there's an update.
Then I got the update prompt for zv6, and it updated fine, although it wasnt rooted afterward. Shortly after, I got another update and it updated to zv7 and 2.3.4, still unrooted. Although my apps were still there, some had issues from remnants of data from froyo, like force closes. So I manually, selectively deleted data in 'manage apps' as I found problem apps.
Then I used the esteem root to root it, and after finding the working, updated one it went fine.
After that, gingervolt came out, and although it was warned to wipe data strenuously before switching, I figured that if I at least made a nandroid before flashing anything, then the worst case scenario if flashing gingervolt over stock gb turned out to fail, I could either wipe data anyway and reflash like normal, or by some crazy chance it'd work, and I just got lucky when it worked. It just took a good 5-7 minutes to boot I presume because it has to rebuild the dalvik cache (based on what/how many apps you have?) and here we are. I hope this explains more so others may have success stories.

It may have to do, like I put above, with putting stock recovery + boot + system.img from stock zv4. Try that if you can and report the results if it deems beneficial.

And I completely have to agree haha. After updating and rooting, I got instant gps lock, have yet to have any fc's or reboot besides the usual routines, and I know Ill have to post a ss to prove it but I was able to get consistent 20-30mbps down with a single 42mbps down speedtest on the speedtest.net app, when before even on a great day it would peak at 16mbps. Loving gingerbread, especially since (coming from a droid) its on a phone meant to handle gb. Afaik, gb's mem manager was more built for 512mb+ (correct me if Im wrong), although it manages everything so much better. As good as gb is on my OG droid, there are a good # of screen redraws lol.
I started from Revolt 1.5. I made a NAND banckup, then got rid of CWM with RevoToolKit. Flashed the v6 tot file with LGNPST, updated to GB OTA, then rooted with mt's script. All-in-all it was pretty painless. I didn't do a data/cache wipe until I went to put on Gingervolt.

Odd. On Halloween, in Cerritos, I reverted to stock and got immediate zv6 upgrade download without even going to settings. zv7 came automatically too.
The only thing I can think of is my phone has never been on vz6 before. Are the people who are having trouble ones who downgraded from zv6 to 4 and then rooted?

Been awhile since I've been around, last time I was here it looked as if going to ICS from GB on a stock Note wasn't a good idea. Has anything changed regarding that? I'm vaugely aware of an onboard chip issue which will brick your phone if you do a factory reset after upgrading and looking around that seems to still be the case. Is everything ok if you just don't reset?
I will say though with the last GB update my batt was draining very fast...someone suggested a factory reset and the difference was dramatic...so I imagine not having that option after OTA ICS...may suck?

Just a head up guys. Official Ice Cream Sandwich came out for Lg optimus 3d, and you can easily get it on your Thrill by using Lg Flash tool found here <http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1491870>
kdz file is here <http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2185406> have fun with ice cream sandwich!
ICS
Did you flash this for the thrill? Any extra steps to get it fully working on the thrill?
All you have to do is change the kdz file name to similar formats like other ones

ICS
I got it flashed and it works great. Everything is fully functional on the thrill so far that I tried. It is a nice change over GB for sure. If anyone is curious how to flash this, here was my method...
1.) Get the KDZ file from here (http://www.android-files.de/P920V28B_00.kdz) and rename it to V28B_00.kdz.
2.) On this page (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1491870) go down to number 3 and set up Lg Flash Tool EXACTLY how it says.
3.) Select the renamed kdz file you just downloaded in the lg flash tool program and let it do it's thing.
4.) On my first bootup it stayed on the bootlogo forever and just would not start up so save yourself some time and do a factory data reset before your first bootup and it will load up fine. The proper way to do a factory hard reset after flashing is to hold VOL DOWN + PWR till it vibrates and it will prompt you to press the power button twice to reset.
Everyone enjoy ICS on their Lg Thrills!
thanks so much!
I am running v20p stock, rooted and unlocked.
I suppose I can directly flash the renamed ics kdz?
And my thrill will be not rooted afyerwards, but still stays unlocked?
Sent from my LG-P925 using xda app-developers app
As long as you follow all the steps above it will flash with no issues. Root and recovery are lost but I think there is a method to get both of them already. I will try to root and recovery later today. As far as staying unlocked after flashing, I am using straight talk so I didn't have to unlock. Hopefully someone else can help you out on that one.

Does that mean the "Software Update" on a stock GB Thrill would install ICS?
Or maybe boot it into "Emergency Mode" (or whatever it is) and using the official LG Tool would work to get ICS without having to do all the smallsrv stuff?
I guess what I'm really asking is, if AT&T officially released ICS, isn't there an easier way to install it?
If you are on stock maybe you can install using the LG Mobile Support Tool. Trying to use that from my ported ICS has messed my phone up though. I'll have to try to rebuild it tonight, hopefully just using the Flash Tool to flash the bin and fls.
I flashed the Korean ICS, hated the bugs, and reverted to GB.
Trying to use the LGMobile Support Tool to install official ICS and it fails. So I guess I'll have to flash the kdz manually.
The Mobile Support Tool appeared to be working for me, until it tried to reboot and I got an "Encryption Unsuccessful" screen.
Now I've used the bin and fls from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2198069
After flashing the above with LGFlashTool, I still booted into the "Encryption Unsuccessful" screen, but powered down by long-pressing Power, then turning back on into factory reset mode with Volume down + Power. Following the reset, I appear to be running okay now.
Edit: Nevermind, having an issue , the phone won't work with either of the microSDs I have around. First it's saying they need to be formatted so I attempt that. Then it says the card is damaged.

I had the same problem. You need to go to settings - storage and clear both memories. After that, everything is going to be ok. Do you know how to root this official ICS version? (Already tried the adb and unlock root methods to no avail)

I got the KDZ flashed. Running Official unrooted AT&T ICS now.
However, it seems I didn't do a factory reset and didn't NEED to. It's running just fun.
My system ROM is 619MB with 7.38MB free.
I'm wondering if that's normal... That's going to make some things pretty tough. (Guessing unsintalling Gulliver's Travels and that other crap will help)
I did the reset. My system memory is showing 102 MB of Apps (I installed a handful of things already), and 770 MB available.

I meant System ROM, not internal.
And odd, finally rooted, browsing SystemROM with ES File Explorer. Gulliver's not there. Biggest app is Golf and LG Home at 16MB each...
I remember someone made an app to get rid of most of the AT&T crap. That still work for ICS? I remember AT&T Contacts is required. Don't remove that...
Every boot takes a LONG ASS time, about 10 minutes, to scan my media. That's with no SD card inserted. I might do a factory reset.

no problem...
thank you! but that method does not have instructions and does not seem safe enough...
everyone keeps talking about this rom but no one is saying how to root the rom and no one is pointing out the 3D Converter problem, it does not work at all!!! it works the same way as the xbsall port LOL! and when it does, you can't adjust the brightness...:silly:
Its basically the same version as the xbsall port (v30b) but for some reason it cannot be rooted through the same methods...
I did a factory reset, and the phone stopped booting. Bizarre.
Anyways, I wiped everything but system, and reflashed the KDZ. It's booting now.
Then I flashed the ICS bootloader BUT I used the GB CWM v6. The other recoveries didn't seem to flash properly. So I'm stock rooted now. Now to remember what file to change to make the 3D button work as a shutter.
Hey guys, I was running Maximum overdrive v1.0 and beastmode 56.8 kernel (no tweaks) when my phone starts freezing and rebooting. It would happen often and even at times It wouldn't boot completely I would have to remove the battery for It to boot. Then It started to get "kernel panic ulpoad mode" I odin flashed back to stock MM but same issues going on. Any ideas? Or its time for a new phone? Thank you
