NEED FOR YOUR HELP, PLEASE !

i need help with rooting mine too. adb works fine, but not fastboot.

always getting 'waiting for device' after entering fastboot oem unlock, but nothing happens?

thanks.. :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Critters123:
I have the same situation. 'waiting for device'. I really think it's a driver issue.

1) how can I verify I have the correct Windows 7 (32bit) drivers installed? I used the LG Mobile Updater as described in the Wiki. When I run 'adb devices' I see the GSlate in the command prompt. However, not when in fastboot or apx.

In the Windows device manager, the device shows up as "Fastboot" and "APX" when in either mode, however, there is no driver associated.

If someone could help me with this driver issue, I'd really appreciate it.

LG-v909 w/ 3.1 update
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Darnell_Chat_TN:
I don't know if this is your issue, but I have the Google USB driver on my PC. I was having issues doing some things on my other devices till I got that. So that may be why I had no issues rooting the G-Slate.

Flashing on gslate

So question can we flash a kernel I seen one on the wiki page for the gslate?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gslate03:
i have the google usb driver revision 4 installed , but still , the device wont get detected on fastboot... did you happen to root your device before the 3.1 update?

i've done all the possible methods of what the others have mentioned here on how they rooted their gslate, i even came across finding out that the gslate has a slight light leak, LOL... and if you look at the panel of the screen sideways on the bottom right on a dim/dark background screen.. you'll notice a light leak or some kind of open space with light leaking.. on bottom part too.. not a big issue anyway, just wanted to mention it..
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Darnell_Chat_TN:
I know you can't after the 3.1 update that locks the boot loader. I don't know about cases where you don't already have the update.

I rooted my G-Slate after the 3.1 update. Had never rooted it till after the update.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Critters123:
Hello,

Thanks for the reply. For some reason, I cannot update the USB driver.

When I follow the instructions...

6.Select Install from a list or specific location and click Next.

7.Select Search for the best driver in these locations; un-check Search removable media; and check Include this location in the search.

8.Click Browse and locate the USB driver folder. (The Google USB Driver is located in <sdk>\google-usb_driver\.)

9.Click Next to upgrade the driver.

It says, "The best driver software for your device is already installed"

MTP USB Device.

I've also tried uninstalling the driver software. Any thoughts on this?

Here's the outcome of 'abd devices'.

C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools>adb devices

List of devices attached

0288418343E13397 device

So, Windows is 'seeing' the device when the GSlate is turned on and connected via USB.

However, when I boot in fastboot mode, the above command does not show any devices.

Thanks again for the help. I'm really grateful.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gslate03:
ok so.. i was able to make my gslate on fastboot , it gets detected when i type in fastboot devices, i had to install Pdanet in my computer... when you install pdanet it will prompt you what you have to do and make sure you pick LG , when it's completely installed.. get your device on fastboot mode , then connect to your pc , go to device monager, fastboot should have a ? (question mark), then update driver , it should work..

but when i type fastboot oem unlock, nothing happens, it gets stuck on [0.00] seconds total finished time? whatever that is...so what do i have to do next to get to CWR so i can install the root zip? LOL..

such a pain this is..
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Critters123:
Thanks for the pdaNet ti. My device is now showing up correctly in the Control Manager.

Here's the output of the command that is failing when the device is in fastboot mode:

C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools>fastboot oem unlock

The GSlate itself had a red message that says:

ANy suggestions??

Thanks a lot.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Trevnerdio:
That happened to me a lot and then I remembered my battery was below 30%...try charging it.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Critters123:
thanks! charging now!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Trevnerdio:
Glad I could be of assistance ;) do you have 3.1 already? If so, let me know if the root works for you. Everything seems to go ok with me but it isn't rooted every time I reboot.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gslate03:
no problem.. :)

at least you were able to download something even if it fails.. mine doesn't even get to that.. it says, can not load hacky recovery ... yah it doesn't work..

anyone know why? can someone point me to the right direction? am i missing anything? thank you..
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gslate03:
yay! finally got it to work!

i now have root, i happened to put the CRhackyrecovery image in both tools and platform tools... after removing the one in platform tools, it booted and voila!

thanks .. LOL

i rebooted to see if root will stick, and it does..
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Trevnerdio:
You just followed the steps and it just...worked? It's never that easy for me! I've done it 3 times and all 3 times it didn't root...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gslate03:
yes.. :)

why dont you do a factory reset and redo it? i dont know.. maybe someone else could help you out better
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gslate03:
and to be honest .. i've been doing it for days.. getting my device on fastboot was a pita..

oh and another suggestion.. make sure you download the root zip and crhackyrecovery again from the google codes v909 site.. i think they must have updated the root and the image that will work for devices who got the OTA update...

not sure if that will make a difference, but i did grab those files again when i saw that the root procedure is "only for 3.1 update"..

good luck..
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] chevy383surfing:
I have my root.zip file on the root of my sdcard, but when I am trying to choose a zip file to install fro within Clockwork recovery, it does not take me to a sdcard location. I cannot find a way to navigate to that location so I can install the root.zip file. Any ideas? Am I missing something. It seems I am one step away from root and cannot get to where I need to be to accomplish this!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gslate03:
It's on 'media' folder

Couldn't find it too, but had to open each and every single folder to find it..

Question: can one flash the kernel I've seen one on the wiki page for the gslate?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gslate03:
Umm i believe you need to be on stock 3.0 honeycomb in order to flash that coz 3.1 has locked bootloader so nothing can be flashed to the device.. .. Not sure..

On a side note, i wonder if the gslate is gonna get IcS?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Trevnerdio:
Then what's up with that 3.1 kernel? And probably
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gslate03:
Oh you're right.. Don't know if we can flash it
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Trevnerdio:
Yeahh I'm not gonna flash it anyway. It has no OC'ing. They haven't done a new one in 3 weeks...so I'm assuming you can't as of right now. Stupid LG, screw them. Finally got my G-Slate rooted on 3.1, all I had to do was download the root.zip file again. The first time I downloaded it, it was done on the G-Slate itself lol
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gslate03:
Hopefully the great devs are working on it... That'd be nice

I wish LG would have the decency to unlock the bootloader on the gslate.. It is a good tablet and i just wish it was supported well by more devs and the manufacturer too..

The gslate has a nice screen..

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Trevnerdio:
As much as I heard about LG's stellar rep, that'll never happen. Their customer support sucks.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gslate03:
if you have root and have root explorer installed... Add these tweaks on your build.prop

windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=150

debug.sf.hw=1

video.accelerate.hw=1

It's supposed to make your screen more responsive and scroll better.. It works for me or at least i believe it does.. Lol, it wont do any harm to your system and you can always delete them... Add those lines on empty space at the bottom then reboot..
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] drtechy:
I put it in, not sure if I notice a difference or not. At first I thought I did, but to be honest it ran pretty smooth before. But at least it didn't do any damage lol!

where can i download the root files for LG-V900?????????

not G-Slate.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mcarey66:
I'm assuming development on this had died off. There hasn't been anything new posted on the wiki in awhile.

I'd really like to see more developers working on it. There's been a lot done with the Xoom but doesn't look like we'll have that kind of luck.

It's such a shame that XDA won't give us a section so development can be promoted. They have sections for some really obscure Android Tablets but yet they won't give us one.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] drtechy:
Agreed, not to mention that the G-slate is probably one of the better tablets out there. I work with them daily, and I bought the g-slate specifically because it was one of the best performing ones. Plus I liked the size better.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mcarey66:
I agree that it's one of the best ones. I did a lot of checking before I got it. The size is perfect. I'm 6'4" with big hands and this is perfect size. The 10 inches tabs are not nearly as comfortable to hold.

Not to mention performance is on par with all the other high end tablets. I know it could be even better if there was more of a developer following.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gslate03:
I found out that it works when i played a 720p movie that i converted via handbreak and squeezed into a 1gb size, normally it'd be over 2gb size if i convert it on regular 2000 ot 1500 kbps... On a 1gb size,the movie would not play just as smooth especially when the characters on the mmovie moves around. Lol.. Bur after the tweaks, it seems to play more seamlessly.. Touch screen responds better too..

I don't know, maybe i am only thinking that it works, but im keeping the tweaks anyway. Lol, t
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gslate03:
Yeah it's the perfect size for me too, 8.9, especially when you want to bring it around with you anywhere you go.. 10.1 seems too big especially up your face while holding it..

The bootloader is locked that's probably why the devs have not added any mods or hack to it

Netflix is working on my stock T-Mobile g-slate, but I had to search for the correct. .apk file (v 1.4.0?) Then attach it in an email, and install it that way on the g-slate. Market said it was not compatible. Scrolling isn't very smooth, but movies work.

I flat-out cannot get Netflix to work properly on my Slate. It will operate all the way to the point you are trying to start a movie, but it says it cannot connect with Netflix. I have Netflix working on my Sensation 4g, no problem. If anyone has found a solution to this will you please share?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mcarey66:
I got the apk online and it's always worked for me on my stock slate. It worked before and after the update.

I can't post the link to the apk here because it's from a warez site.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gslate03:
i didnt have a netflix account and seeing how a lot of people seem to like netflix, even gslate owners want it.. i set up an account when i got home from work today.. LOL.. did a little research to how to make the netflix work on my gslate.. both 1.3 and 1.4 versions wouldn't work but i found a patch.. i found it from the acer iconia forums as they were having problems with netflix before too.. you must be rooted in order for this to work coz you will need to replace your libnvomx.so with a patch one.. unzip the file below and only apply the livnvomx.so from system /lib.. that's it! you dont need the other ones.. now it is saved on your sd card.. ( you can do this directly from your gslate , unzip using root explorer or do it on your PC then transfer the file livovmonx.so into your gslate)

i use root explorer

then on sd card copy the extracted file libnvomx.so

press back

then go to system

then lib

then paste the patch version, it will ask you to replace it then yes..but you must copy the original libnvomx.so first , copy it and save it on your sd card somewhere, just in case you need to put it back in, then you can paste.. so copy and save the original first then apply the patch one.. works on both 1.3 and 1.4 versions.. :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gslate03:
oh and reboot then it should work..

---------- Post added at 09:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:54 PM ----------

Or can any of you try to install the apk first and reboot? Maybe it will work even without a patch.. Just wondering, coz I didn't think of doing that..
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] trovatrice:
There was a Netflix outage at some point recently. Have you tried it lately? BTW, mine is not rooted, and did not need a patch.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gslate03:
i just tried it earlier but i was getting an error when trying to play anything..i installed the market versions,no go... Then found the patch.. Well it works now.. Hehe

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mcarey66:
Is it safe to assume development is dead for the G-slate? The Google Code page is rarely updated and there is pretty much no activity here.

I have been hoping to keep my G-slate but it's not looking like it. I prefer it over all the other tablets out there. Probably gonna have to get a Transformer or a Xoom simply because XDA supports it and there are devs actively working on them.

I really wish we had more people on our side.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] setzer715:
I agree, I bought it thinking there would be dev support. I mean, it's rooted, but without custom kernel's/ROM's/Recovery's it's almost useless. It is nice, thought, to use Titanium Backup to back it up and I removed a bunch of bloatware but I really want to overclock this bad boy. Oh well, Tab 10.1 here I come! Ebay, here comes my G-Slate!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dasunsrule32:
Well, you see...if we had an unlocked bootloader, then YES! But we don't, LG locked us out of our GSlate's, and until someone can help us crack the bootloader, there will be no development. Nothing we can do, if you noticed the front page of the project site, it says to go and complain about the bootloader. So get hoppin... /end rant

Lg and t-mobile no longer support OSS on g-slate, become bringer of death

We have the ability to fix all of the slate's software issues but LG has chosen to lock the bootloader, blaming bricked devices as the reason for their underhanded and cowardly actions. Frankly, i think that we were embarrasing them... calling them out for the failures that they are.

Sad.

I hope the fact that this device will be on sale for $99 tomorrow pisses you all off as much as it does me. This company is guilty of criminal ignorance, post angry reviews everywhere, t-mobile is of the opinion that we all got what was advertised and got what we paid for, I DISAGREE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh yeah, re netflix failing... it's LG's updated drm that is failing, ddms reports module not found at boot, netflix error is drm related. T-mobile douche had the balls to claim repeatedly that this is Google's fault because they (goog) "are locking down tablets to rent videos"...

Sigh, where do they find these jerkoffs.:mad:
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] drtechy:

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gslate03:
he gslate will be on sale for 99$? I paid 250, if i knew then I would have waited! It seems like this tablet has just completely become almost unworthy.. From 700$ to 99$?? LG must really not care about this product at all...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Gslate03:
Just curious... Can't you guys mod the stock 3.0.1 firmware instead? Create roms for it? Overclock? Fix the issues? Then we'll just downgrade and install the roms...?

Yah? Just wondering coz 3.0.1 does not have a locked bootloader..
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] drtechy:
I wish I had more knowledge in this arena to help, but I do agree with what your saying. I think the big problem overall is that companies are trying to meld two different markets when it comes to these devices. They are combining their policies for computers and smartphones. I think this is their mistake, they should be using their computer policies more than smartphone ones. These devices are almost exactly like a pc, so why aren't they treated as such. I can load any operating system I want onto a pc, and it never voids my warranty. It's going to come to a point, especially when windows 8 comes out, that tablet makers are going to have to relinquish our access to the bootloaders (same as a bios on a pc IMO) the same as HTC is realizing now. I don't know, at least that's the way I see it.

Will pull my slate back out and see if I can come up with something to at least allow our Bawse kernels to be flashed. To me, honestly, custom roms are pointless on an HC tab. What do u gain? Themes? We can do that..... Mods? We can do that.... Bloatware removal? That we can do.... The only thing we cant do is make a kernel persist using fastboot. The need to always flash something is an addiction, I know, I had it to. But doing it just to do it when you dont really gain anything new but a couple apps, its redundant. Like a million versions of CM7 out there when they are just framework-res themed instead of the included theme manager way, a few apps added or removed then released and everyone flashes it coming from CM7 and reports its cooler/faster/more stable, when honestly nothing was done. The only "custom rom" that would be worth a **** on this thing would be a full featured 3.2. Everything else can already be achieved. Anyways, I will at least see if we can get kernels back going and if you feel I am wrong here, please feel free to let me know and/or tell me the things we CANT currently do and would need a custom rom for and if it makes sense to me, I will build one. -CR
