is this so we can get developers to make a custom recovery??????????

it is supposed to be the stock firmware for the revolution which would allow you to flash your system back to stock.
I have scanned the file and there are 3 files contained inside. I have not been able to extract them however. There are 3 img files inside which tally some 700+ meg.

I have not found a way to extract the embedded files either. This is used with a Verizon only tool that is readily available. I wouldn't recommend flashing this unless you brick or destroy your phone (as a last result).

It's a program called: LGNPST. You can Google it and you will find a few download locations.

I looked everywhere to find out how to load this, can somebody with lg experience point me in the right direction. im coming from a droid x, i would just sbf to restore a phone; that was easy

LGPNST does not support this device yet that I know of.
Verizon has a tool as well but I don't think it works with TOT files.

Yeah, you have to have the proper DLL, and we haven't found it yet. Cubed said he'd have a stock ROM out here shortly.
After that, he plans to deodex and release a cleaned version of stock (debinged)

Hi,
this is the factory soft provided by LG to update VS910.
[LGDP2V42]only_VS910_20110430_download
but this soft need a protection dongle (need to be attached to PC) to run. LG Service Centers have this. It will be intersting if someone can find something useful from it.

I don't know if it works or not but...
http://www.mobile-files.com/forum/showthread.php/1384-How-load-TOT-file-with-LGNPST-LAB.1.2
So i guess in LGNPST, you just click browse, then put *.* in file name, hit enter, then select your .tot.

The problem isnt getting the software its the fact that unlike motorola the lg program requires a device specific .dll file so without that file the flash software and firmware are really of no use

[Q] return to stock w/ root

Hello,
I am currently running the most recent CM11 Nightly, but I constantly have performance trouble. If I wanted to return to Stock while keeping root, how would I go about doing this?
Thank you!

Do a .kdz or .tot flash. Search within the forums, or Google search. Either way will get you back to stock, and you can root from there.

Thank you, I saw info referring to both .kdz and .tot but could not find anything explicit that I could follow.

Make sure you download the correct .kdz or .tot files for your phone.

Root your phone once you get to 24A and before taking the 25B/26A update and it will stick.

You can obtain root with Stump root on 26A, either way should be fine to root.

Trying to unroot the Moto X

I know how to do all of this, but I can't do it without the stock firmware.:crying:
Here is the link to the forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/ref-complete-moto-x-guides-information-t2603358
I actually found tons of other forums too, but they all had the requirement of the stock firmware, and they all are pointing to the same link, to get the firmware.
Link: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=0
But so, this website is down for some reason, and I need the stock firmware. If anyone has it and could upload it somewhere, that would be awesome. :good:

Geez, what happened to the sbf files on the droid developer's site? I hope someone has b/u copies of the firmware b/c I don't think I do!

Flashing stock recovery back on your phone is the exact same process you took to flash a 3rd party recovery onto your phone, only using the stock Recovery.IMG file.
If you need instructions... then...
Link in my Signature has this info -> How To Return To stock Use option 2. If all you want is stock recovery, you can just do the mfastboot flash recovery recovery.img line and skip the rest if that is all you need.
OR....
If you are rooted and you can obtain the correct recovery.img and copy it to your phone, you can flash via your phone (without setting up Fastboot,etc on your PC) by following -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/ref-return-to-stock-recovery-rooted-t3027079 (this does have info on obtaining the stock recovery for your phone via your PC, you'll just need to copy the IMG file to the phone before you proceed.)

VS980 39a kdz available

http://csmgdl.lgmobile.com/dn/downloader.dev?fileKey=FW809NS032ENA4D1C360LR7/VS98039A_05.kdz
Since you asked for it...

1.64 Gb, is that correct? Seems small. The last time I downloaded a kdz it was at least 2 Gb.

That does seem small. Maybe it's a mistake or a bad upload. I'll take a look.

Here is a mirror on my server in case its ever needed
VS98039A_05.kdz - 1676.2 Mb

Btw this kdz works great.I used it last night to great effect.I'm not sure why it's so much smaller.

Can't seem to find a working root method for VS980 Lollipop.

Yup. That method worked great. No other apk could do it on lollipop (kept saying i was already rooted but wasn't).

Does kdz file fully reset the phone?

Depends how you flash it. There's one of two ways - wipes everything or only overwrites the actual system files w/o deleting storage files/settings.

Getting an error saying phone has been disconnected...? Anyone else get that?

Did the update OTA. But now can't root because it fails on the download mode step. Port is open and loads, but just sits there after the sh command. Figure it's related to kdz flash fail. Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks for this. I'm trying to restore my old G2 and the first link (like many other G2-related links) was dead.

Zvd tot now available

You can downgrade from ZVF and ZVE without getting hard bricked - no worries. (No guarantee for future updates higher than ZVF).
If you use this to upgrade from ZVC or lower, you cannot go back down lower than ZVD or you will get hard bricked.
File works fine in LGUP. Don't ask me how to install or use it - there's plenty of that already on the forums.
Happy flashing!

But LGUP is way less work
Plus, I don't think it would give you the DLL anyways. I created the tot myself using software to pull the partitions from another phone and compile everything together

Is there a possibility of using this tot file to create a more updated MellowMallow installation? I think MellowMallow is currently based on the much older ZVB version.

I have no idea. You'd have to talk to the ROM dev. I doubt it though.
I'm sure a flashable ROM zip could be created, but that would require a custom recovery in order to be installed.
MellowMallow is in TOT form IIRC but the problem is that there's no root method for ZVD

since they are both mm basebands its possible for it to work not garantied though

Noob question, but what is the benefit of downgrading from ZVF/ZVE to ZVD? Will I be able to root or tether without root? Thanks.

Nothing really. There have been a few probs i guess on e or f. Which now having a compatible tot can possibly fix that. Soft brick from bad firm flashes

Or.....
You can flash ZVD and then OTA update to ZVE and then ZVF if you want. Very easy process

Lol.

Brother this tot works for the LG G4 LS991ZVE ?? I await your reply thanks

So has anyone actually flashed this TOT to confirm it works? The structure seems different from prior TOTs and the entire extracted TOT (via WindowsLGFirmwareExtract) is smaller than even a compressed version of ZVB's system image. Either this TOT is missing too much critical data to be used for a full restore or it's incompatible with the only decompilation tools I can find. Either way, as it is, it's useless for creating custom (Mellowmallow-style) ROMs.
EDIT: Maybe the tools I was using weren't accounting properly for the different structure. I did a bit of tweaking with LGBinExtract and managed to pull out a full system.img. Still haven't actually flashed the TOT to downgrade my ZVF phone, though.

I didnt look at the file structure. But 1.6 gb is the file size which is typical for g4 tots.
Anywhere from 1.5 to 2.5

I've just flashed this rom on a LS991 with ZVE with lgup but i dont know if i am doing something wrong, when you flash a tot like this, the phone must restore to factory defaults? or when a tot is flashed the phone just do an "upgrade" ... In my case I used this tot to install from stratch a new rom, cause im stuck in the setup wizard :/
