Hi all!
I were in the process to upgrade to 10b on my phone, but during the upgrade the phone stopped responding on upgrading S/W. Please wait. And after some time on that screen, I removed the battery and cable, and tried the different solutions provided by the LG B2C Support Tool.
After that I tried to flash the phone with smartflash and the latest software. And that worked perfectly, but now the phone has no IMEI. Have tried to install the backup I had via CWM but still no IMEI.
I was looking forward to use the 2x this easter, but if noone has a good solution in getting the IMEI back, the phone needs to go on a easter holiday to the service centre.
You did the same thing with me. When using smartflash, DO NOT check option "Erase CAL data" but I did. My SU660 now has serial number = 0000000. P990 will lost IMEI.

I had the same problem, you need to flash the baseband firmware as it is gone.
I think that it was during updating the baseband as part of the V10b mine stopped flashing.
Look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1008070
It worked with mine o2x.
I managed to solve the situation.
I applied the 10b firmware using nvflash. And then flashed the 10a fw with smartflash, checked that the IMEI were back in business. And then did a new update using smartflash to 10b and now everything is back as normal

Hi mohicanrat,
I tried to set 'Port Setting' -> 'CP USB', but in the device manager (i'm using win7), this device then shows up as 'Other Devices' -> 'Unknown device'.
What should I do now? Where can I get the device driver for this?
hello,
please where i go to "Start hyperterminal, in COM settings"
HyperTerminal was binned after Windows XP, if you have Vista onwards you'll need to download an equivalent.

Today i was flashing LG Optimus Black P970 with SmartFlash and accidentaly i checked "Erase entire CP". In a result my IMEI has changed...
With this tutorial I managed to recover my IMEI successfully!
It took me 2 minutes and worked at first time.
i'm trying this method but not working
when type At...i get ok
but when i type imei i get error
What error? Paste screenshot or log.
What firmware version do you have in your LG?
You must type exactly this: at%imei - (% symbol is very important) it will display your current IMEI, then
at%imei=x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x,x (, (comma) is very important too)
Hi,
I had one time that when i change ril. After backup my old ril all work fine.
I tried this method but i get "IMPL ERROR".
Stock ROM V10c
Tried to downgrade baseband from
1035.21_20110405
to
1035.21_20110315
but still same error...
Any idea?
Can you please tell me exact software version on what this method worked?
any solution for su660 i have the same problem
I expect the same thing would work.

Anyone know how to perform this with an Optimus L3 device? Apparently i can't have acces to "Port Settings"
Well guys there are over 9000 threads here on how to root the Nexus 4.
I thought I'd make one thread that says all this in simple English and makes it quick and simple for everybody.

DISCLAIMER:
UNLOCKING THE PHONE WIPES DATA AND THE INTERNAL SD CARD. UNLOCKING THE PHONE WIPES DATA AND THE INTERNAL SD CARD. UNLOCKING THE PHONE WIPES DATA AND THE INTERNAL SD CARD. Therefore I HIGHLY suggest you do this before you start setting up the phone/installing apps so that you don't have to redo/reinstall much.
You can re-lock and unroot the phone, but I am still going to say that this voids the warranty.
I am not responsible for what you do to your device. This is for reference only.
Please follow each step carefully (ESPECIALLY make sure to read the part before step 14 VERY CAREFULLY.)
The CWM recovery may not be 100% functional yet, but you can install zips/roms and do backups for sure.
STEPS:
1 - Download this file and unzip it to C:\Nexus4
2 - Open a command prompt (On windows vista/7, go to Start menu and type cmd and press enter. On XP & below, go to Start > Run and type cmd and press enter.)
3 - In the command propmpt, run
Code:
cd C:\Nexus4 <press enter>
4 - On the phone, go to Settings > About phone. In the About phone menu, scroll down to "build number" and tap it until it says "You are now a Developer!"
5 - Go back to the main settings menu, and the Developer options tab should now be visible. Open that tab.
6 - In the Developer options menu, check USB debugging and Stay awake.
7 - Install the driver from here.
8 - Connect the device via USB.
9 - In the command prompt, run the command
Code:
adb devices <press enter>
and your serial number should pop up. If not, try unplugging the device, reinstalling the drivers, rebooting PC, and then retry.
10 - Now run the command
Code:
adb push SUBusybox.zip /sdcard/SUbusybox.zip <press enter>
It should say something like "XXXX KB/s (1191942 bytes in X.XXXs)"
11- If it said that, run the command
Code:
adb reboot-bootloader <press enter>
12 - The phone will show up in the bootloader. Now run the command
Code:
fastboot devices <press enter>
and your serial number should pop up.
13 - If your serial number popped up, run the command
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
and your phone will ask you if you want to unlock. Select yes with the volume buttons and press power.
13 - Your phone will go back to the bootloader screen, and at the bottom it will now say LOCK STATE - unlocked
****DO WHAT IS BETWEEN THESE RED DIVIDERS IF AND ONLY IF YOU WANT OTA UPDATES TO STILL WORK. IF YOU DON'T CARE, CONTINUE ON STEP 14 BELOW THE DIVIDERS.****
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Run
Code:
fastboot boot CWMrecovery.img <press enter>
and it should say something like
Code:
downloading 'boot.img'... OKAY [ X.XXXs]
booting... OKAY [ X.XXXs]
and your phone will boot into CWM recovery.
NOW SKIP TO STEP 17. ON STEP 18 IF IT ASKS YOU TO DISABLE RECOVERY OVERWRITE, TAP NO. STEP 19 SAYS YOU WILL HAVE CWM INSTALLED. YOU WON'T.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14 - Now run the command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery CWMrecovery.img <press enter>
and it should say something like
Code:
sending 'recovery' (7754 KB)... OKAY [ X.XXXs]
writing 'recovery'... OKAY [ X.XXXs]
15 - If it said OKAY twice, then press the volume down key on the phone twice and it will say Recovery mode. Press the power key.
16 - Once in recovery mode, run the commands
Code:
adb shell mount system <press enter>
adb shell mv /system/recovery-from-boot.p /system/recovery-from-boot.p.bak <press enter>
adb shell mv /system/etc/install-recovery.sh /system/etc/install-recovery.sh.bak <press enter>
adb shell umount system <press enter>
the command prompt will say nothing back to you if there were no errors.
17 - On the phone, tap install zip from sdcard (NOT INSTALL ZIP FROM SIDELOAD), then tap choose zip from sdcard. Tap 0/. Now scroll down to SUBusybox.zip and tap it. Tap yes. It will then install.
18 - Now tap Go Back and then tap reboot system now. If it asks you to disable recovery overwrite tap yes.
19 - Once the phone boots back up it will be fully wiped and you will be rooted with CWM, SuperSU, and busybox installed
Thanks! So I'm assuming the latest CWM also runs a script that renames the auto reflash recovery? For my GN it was good enough to just rename the script in /system.

It didn't work for me, so I put adb commands in there to do it manually just in case.

I've been trying this for most of the day, having read everything here about doing it, and even watching the video.
Unfortunately, I let the phone update to 14.1.G.2.257, but I found the instructions on how to flash back to the previous 1.534. The flashing worked perfectly.
I am trying to use Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v32 having read how to and watched the tutorial. USB debugging is enabled, as is Unknown Sources, and the 'adb devices' command in the stuff folder of the aforementioned program lists the phone.
However, it does not seem to work. I get the following output:

The phone reboots, but there is no SuperUser app. I have re-run the program many times, reflashed the stock firmware again to make sure, and banged my head against my desktop several times to no avail.
Please help...

Yes thanks, USB debugging and unknown sources are enabled. Is this the screenshot you need to see?
**Edit**
I got it to work!
I just pulled out my laptop which had a clean install of Windows 7 as of a few days ago, installed the above stuff (plus ADB drivers from pdanet) on that, and it worked.
Why it didn't work on my main PC I have no idea, but it is probably an issue with some driver somewhere messing things up. I did try reinstalling all of them, but to no avail.
Anyway, got it now. Thanks!
READ THIIS!
*this thread is for desire 510. it will NOT work on m7,or any older device. please check the general forum for your particular device for a similar thread.
this thread will let you unlock your bootloader without htcdev,or let you change your hboot watermark from relocked or unlocked back to stock.
advantages
-no hassle with htcdev,tokens,or unlock codes
-no submitting your phones personal info to htc
-the ability to get back to 100% stock without any visual traces or records of having been s off or unlocking your bootloader.
*you must be s off.
*you must have superuser installed
read this:
this will not work if your s on. its not a way to magically unlock
the usual disclaimers:
use this info at your own risk. if it melts your phone into a little pile of plastic goo,its not my fault.
credits
-beaups for schooling me on echo comand protocol
-strace for originally discovering the location of the lock status flag(check out this thread for more info)
*i have tested this on my gsm cricket desire 510 variant(a11_ul). let me know if you try it on a different variant,or if youd like to dump partitions and have me take a look
IF you are an advanced user with adb/fastboot set up and some basic knowlede of the cmd window,you can skip to #2
1)set up adb(windows 7 and older)
-download this file
-install drivers: if you have htc sync installed,you should allready have drivers. if not,you can install htc sync,or install these modified htc drivers from revolutionary (driver mirror)
-unzip your miniadb_v1031.zip file. this is native funtionality in windows 7. you otherwise may need a utility such as "7-zip" to extract,or unzip it. place the unzipped folder onto the root of your C drive on your PC. root means the top level,not inside any folders. so just copy and paste,or drag and drop the folder onto C with everything else that is there. you may want to rename it to "miniadb_m7" since youll be putting some device specific files in here.
-open a command window. on windows 7,click the start bubble in the lower left and type "command" in the search box. xp i believe is similar or the same. doing this should open a small black command window.
-change to your miniadb_m7 directory. type the following at the prompt in your cmd window:
cd c:\miniadb_m7
your command promt should change to "c:miniadb_m7>" provided you: 1)unzipped the miniadb_v1031 zip file,and 2)put the folder on your c drive,and 3)entered the name of the folder correctly ("miniadb_m7" in this case)
-now make sure usb debugging is checked in developer options(you will need to turn it on first),and plug your phone into your PC with a usb cable
-make sure your phone is being recognized- type:
adb devices
if your drivers are installed correctly,this should return your phones serial number. you should hear the "found device" noises when you plug your phone in. if it starts installing drivers,wait for it to finish before typing the adb devices command.
if you get your serial number back,then enter this command:
adb reboot bootloader
this should take your phone to the "fastboot" screen,wich is white with colored letters. this is one mode of your bootloaders interactive modes. at the top youll see fastboot devices as confirmation youre in fastboot.
now enter:
fastboot devices
again,this should return your phones serial number. you should hear the "found device" noises when you plug your phone in. if it starts installing drivers,wait for it to finish before typing the adb devices command.
if you get your serial number back,you can enter the following to boot back to the phones OS:
fastboot reboot
and now,youve installed adb/fastboot and tested youre phones drivers. if at either spot,you have trouble and dont get your serial number back,there is some sort of connection issue. use these steps to troubleshoot:
troubleshooting connectivity issues:
-try a reboot of the PC
-try different usb cables and ports
-dont use a usb hub
-dont use usb 3.0
-make sure nothing capable of comunicating with the phone is enabled and running. htc sync,pdanet,easy tether,and even itunes have all been known to cause issues.
-windows 8 has been known to have issues. try a windows 7 or older machine
failing the above,
-i use these drivers for fastboot and adb(donwload and run as admin): http://downloads.unrevoked.com/HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe (mirror)
failing that,try manually updating the drivers in the following manner:
-put the phone in fastboot mode(select fastboot from the hboot menu)
-open device manager on the PC
-plug in phone,watch for it to pop up in device manager.
-update drivers with device manager,pointing the wizard to the extracted
driver download folder from above
note that you can check the connectivity of the phone,and make sure drivers are working by in the following manner:
-open cmd window. change to directory containing adb/fastboot utilities
-adb with the phone in the booted OS,usb debug enabled,enter:
adb devices in a cmd window
-fastboot with phone in fastboot,enter:
fastboot devices in cmd window
in either case,a properly connected phone with working drivers installed should report back the phones serial number.
