Ditto - still stuck.

---------- Post added at 03:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:20 PM ----------

When I click on Upgrade, nothing appears to happen both on the PC and the phone. The phone still operates while it is plugged in, so clearly nothing is happening. Additionally, the "Status" in LGNPST is "Stand by". Can anyone offer any assistance? Phone is currently rooted with CWM. Thank you.
[LG Revolution] ShermCraig:
What is wrong?

Folks, I am truly sorry for posting again, but nobody has responded and I'm getting desperate. I need to return this phone to Verizon and cannot get it back to factory. When I click "Upgrade", nothing appears to be happening. I've uninstalled and reinstalled all components but keep getting the same result - or lack thereof. PLEASE, if anyone can help me, I will happily buy you a drink or make a donation, but I need help ASAP. See attached screenshot and let me know if you need any other info. Thank you!
[LG Revolution] I.M.famous XMAN:
Have you tried emergency download mode? turn off your phone, press and hold power + vol up. Then try flashing the tot. If it works it will put you in test mode. You will need the test mode fix. Run the fix as many times as needed to get you out of test mode. You'll know if it works cuz you will see your usb icons in the status bar after the reboot.
[LG Revolution] ShermCraig:
Thank you for your suggestion. Once I get into Download mode, LGNPST doesn't offer a place to select the tot file. I'm a little lost now.... Thank you again!
[LG Revolution] I.M.famous XMAN:
You go in and flash the phonebook. Select the tot. If someone could get me a backup of the stock Rom I could make a flashable zip for a stock rooted Rom. Then all you have to do is unroot and change the recovery. You can do all that from your phone.
[LG Revolution] ShermCraig:
Oooohhhhh, okay, so I choose phonebook, but actually select the TOT file? And it will allow me to do that? I will try that - but cannot until tomorrow - working late today. If you can get the flashable zip, that would be amazing, and like I said, I'd throw you a few bucks for your time and efforts. I'll PM you my email address. Thanks again!!!!!!!
[LG Revolution] I.M.famous XMAN:
I wonder if it's possible to rip a tot to get the files.

Hey guys and gals,

Trying to increase my post count so I can properly thank the developers threads.

This method to fix the LG Revo and use the LGPNST tool is awesome. Back in May I finally got feed up I want getting the OTA updates, so I took this path.

After updating to one version using the tool, all the sudden I get notification that there is an update from VZW waiting to be downloaded and installed.

So I was back with the Jonses, so to speak.

Thanks everyone for help and hard work. It is truly appreciated for us who are not devs.

-Marc
[LG Revolution] TheSteve:
Thanks so much for getting these tot files uploaded. I wanted to give a small something back to you guys, so I mirrored a few of the common files we use onto a dedicated server of mine. To make it a bit easier, I recompressed them into a single file each instead of multiple .rars, etc. These should be up for a long time:

66.85.128.51/phone/LGPNST.zip

66.85.128.51/phone/VS910.dll

66.85.128.51/phone/GingerVolt2.0.zip

66.85.128.51/phone/BrokenOutRevo2.0.zip

Let me know if you need anything else added, this are just the first few I had around.

EDIT: I dont have enough posts to put a direct link, so you just have to paste them into your address bar manually.

Do you happen to have VS910ZV4_04.S4_04.P58008.R5.user.tot?
[LG Revolution] TheSteve:
I don't currently, but I'll try to download one and upload it to the server tonight. The upload speed at my house isn't very good though so it may take some time.
[LG Revolution] TheSteve:
Not having much luck finding a working ZV4 download. One of the three pieces in the first post is not working. I'll try again later.
[LG Revolution] Crasoum:
I am having that same difficulty, I tried the minus.com link and even upped my time out settings to see if it'd load if given minutes (not for me :/). I also searched the newsgroups to see if it was posted. I don't seem to see any bit torrent links either. Unfortunate.

Yes sir. You will need to use one of the aio's to root and install cwm again.
[LG Revolution] jlivolsi:
So, everything is going fine up until I click the start button. I keep getting a message saying the file path is empty. Yes, the dll is registered and it sees it, the program sees the phone, I didn't have any issues with any of that. The only thing it is failing on is when I click the start button. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
[LG Revolution] jlivolsi:
So, if I run the program as administrator it starts the process when I click the start button but then it throws an error that it can't load LGNPST_PortManager4.dll. I do some reading and find out that a possible cause is that the dll files are not the most recent? I never got an install error when installing any of the software. I also get this error when I click the phone setting button in LGNPST, however if I run the program not as an administrator I can click the phone setting button and I don't get the error, just when I run it as administrator. So, I went to cdmagurus.com to download the generic components but the link doesn't work there anymore and it is from 2 years ago anyway. Can anyone tell me where I can find the most updated dll's or even post a link to get them? Thanks.
[LG Revolution] Teknician:
I know this is an old thread but I cannot find a v4 tot anywhere. If anyone has one they can link, i would appreciate it. Restoring a Revo and still cannot get the Sim and radio with the other versions so I thought I would start at v4. Thanks everyone..

Or even possibly the zip file for v4. I have the other 2 archive files, just need the zip that doesnt download.

UPDATE: I have 4-6-7-8-9 tot files if anyone is playing with the Revolution. PM me if you can't find them.
[LG Revolution] z06mike:

[LG Revolution] warpigs420:
Can't get this method to work, need a suggestion

I was hoping to get a nudge in the right direction here...

Basically, my company says they will pay my monthly cell bill on my Revo, as long as I get it back to 'stock' and no more rooting. (boo...)

I'm on Broken Out ROM right now. Trouble for me, is that I cannot get my PC's to pick load the right drivers and get my phone recognized by LGNPST. The driver download from LG isn't everything needed, as any Windows-based PC I have tried to do this on, still can't recognize a Serial CDC driver.

(I've tried on XP, 32-bit, Windows 7 64 bit, and for what it's worth, Windows 8 64 bit)

People have said to install the 'Verizon' driver that comes up when connecting the phone, but I'll be damned if I can find a place to acquire that, since it's on a different ROM now, I don't get that option when connecting. The cable I'm using is the original USB data cable that came with the Revo.

Any hints to try would be appreciated. I've got a Linux box available too, so if there is an option available on that route, heck I'll take it!

Thanks for any advice you can offer!

Put that in your Models folder inside the LG folder...

I have more files laying around if you need them, let me know, and I'll upload..
[LG Revolution] warpigs420:
This didn't do anything. I registered the .dll's but still nothing showing up in LGNPST.

Thanks for the response though.
[LG Revolution] rybussell:
I just reread and saw your statement about the LG pop up driver when you plug in the phone and all that..

I found a driver that worked when I did this the last time:

http://www.mediafire.com/download/w3uest7a1lnx486/LG_VZW_United_WHQL_v2.5.2.exe

http://www.mediafire.com/download/z8e182j0o1zxaiv/LG_Eseem_Drivers.msi

Can't remember which but I think both work anyway...

Also, just in case, remember that when you install the LGNPST thing, it has to be done in a certain order... Took me a couple installs to figure that one out. :)
[LG Revolution] capt730:
Here are links to my ubuntu with all the instructions and files you need to use LGPNST to tot back to v9

Once you do the TOT back to V9, I suggest doing a factory reset on the phone to go completely back to stock.

http://ubuntuone.com/21YiUCmDQXqXgZwp1SngPJ - Instructions

http://ubuntuone.com/49HLgMtLoxjLUVhqrggrkP - the LGPNST zip

http://ubuntuone.com/0pFwf75KnOSEE2hB3xb8MV - the DLL file you need

http://ubuntuone.com/1eGurihhbLcPl9vriNhOBM - the full V9 tot file you will need.

I no longer use my Revo, but still have it and may try and use it on my home wifi with a google voice # so I can cut out my home phone. :D
[LG Revolution] :
I read there is a ZVB update out? Any chance of getting the .TOT posted?
[LG Revolution] rychada:
Thanks so much, this was really helpful
[LG Revolution] OrangeJoe:
Yeah, where did these come from, and is the zvb tot there? Also, anyway to TOT the revo from linux?
[LG Revolution] I.M.famous XMAN:
You would have to ask jackpot about where they came from. As far as using Linux, the answer is no. I use a Acer one netbook with xp. And no to the zvb tot. If I had a back up of zvb then I can build a flashable zip.

Register dll on Windows 8 Fix

Not sure if this fix was in here .. thought I would post anyways.

Wanted to give a thanks for your tutorial here. But wanted to add in a problem and a solution I can into along the way with all this.

I followed Directions to a T here and I still was unable to register the dll file.

after a ton of google searches and forumn reading I came across this fix to solve my issue.

I am using Windows 8 and this was the fix I got .

Go to your search glass in windows 8 type command Prompt right click on the command prompt and run as administrator

Type EXACTLY or right click copy then right click Paste into the command prompt

regsvr32.exe "C:\LG Electronics\LGNPST\Models\VS910.dll

walla everything was good to go after that. I can't take credit for this but wanted to pass along my fix and maybe save someone else a Headache.

[LG Revolution] oilfieldtrsh:
does anyone know how to get the phone to update to zvB after i flash a tot file and get it back to stock??
[LG Revolution] thesavo:
Once I flashed the tot with LGPNST. I opened system settings ,then "about phone" and checked for an update.
[LG Revolution] oilfieldtrsh:
yeah i done that and i just used LGNPST to upgrade to 9v after flashing 8 and then i checked for an update and it said no new software available
[LG Revolution] thesavo:
Disclaimer: I last did this 2 months ago.

I think I had to do a full data wipe.

I don't remember. Have you restarted since flashing the tot?
[LG Revolution] oilfieldtrsh:
yeah i i done a factory reset to get out of test mode and still nothing then i figured it might help to do a hard reset with the volume down and power button and one thing i did notice is that when connected to LGNPST my rf mode says sleep i dunno if that matters and even when i do a restore in cwm back to stock rooted from the backup i have it doesnt change
[LG Revolution] thesavo:
Cell data works too?
[LG Revolution] oilfieldtrsh:
yeah it works i checked it by calling my girlfriends phone
[LG Revolution] thesavo:
I meant data, not voice. Can you get on there Google play store? Can you get your Gmail on cell data. Wifi radio office?
[LG Revolution] oilfieldtrsh:
yeah i get an email everytime i get quoted on here lol so i know when to check the and my verizon app updated from the playstore did you read the post about even when i flash my stock backup from cwm it doesnt change either
[LG Revolution] thesavo:
I did not. See that post.

So to summarize your situation. You can flag the vz8 tot. But you are not offered they update to vz9 (vzB).

When flashing back to a stock backup, you're also got offered the vz9(vzB) update.

You also performed a data wipe after flashing back to stock, still not updates offered.. You confirmed that cell data is flowing and wifi is off.

Perplexing. I an stumped. You can try flashing vZ 7, to see if it will self update to vz8, then to vz9.
[LG Revolution] oilfieldtrsh:
i am currentley on vz9 but i cant get the zvB update its really weird i flashed zv8 then i got out of test mode then used LGNPST to upgrade to zv9 and that is where i am so far thank you for helping me like this i am a noob

edit: i forgot to mention my service keeps cutting in and out i found this out after i looked at it on my browser and also tried the update and it said" check again when service is available
[LG Revolution] thesavo:
VzB =vz9

Or so I thought.
[LG Revolution] oilfieldtrsh:
i thought they had an update from zv9 to zvB
[LG Revolution] thesavo:

[LG Revolution] oilfieldtrsh:
when i first opened my phone it said it had an update after i put in my sim card and it updated to zvb

then it got stuck on the lg screen
[LG Revolution] I.M.famous XMAN:
So you flashed the tot in emergency download mode. I did the same thing right after I updated to zvb. Made a tweak in OG and it killed the rom. Would not boot and when trying to flash an updated version of OG, it corrupted the system dir. I could not boot nor format nor install to the system directory. Had to flash v9 in edm. After getting out of test mode, I get the same thing "no update available".

Now when you are talking about the rom, yes they seem to be the same (or similar). The only thing that seems to get updated going to zvb, is the ril (the radio software which is seperate from the rom). I have yet to figure out how to fix this. OG is based on the rom part of the update, so whether it's an actual update, I can't honestly say for sure. But if there are any updates to the rom, be sure they are in OG.

Try this first:

Step 1: Run SFC (system file checker) scan on your computer. SFC scan will make Windows replace corrupt or missing system files on your computer.

a. Click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, right-click Command Prompt, and select Run as Administrator.

b. Click Continue or supply Administrator credentials if prompted.

c. In the Command Prompt window type the following, and press Enter:

sfc /scannow

If you follow the directions posted by jackpot08 in the very first post in this thread exactly, it will get you back to stock firmware and everything. Definitely use the ZV9 TOT file. You will have to reroot and CWM, but with the one click software download being somewhere on here, that shouldn't be an issue.
[LG Revolution] tvmrfixit:
Two problems

I am unable to download ZV9, it says the owner has not added any files.

When I tried zv8 and I can get to the emergency mode select the .VS910.dll file but when I try to select the .tot, it wont let me. The program is looking for a .csv What did I do wrong?
[LG Revolution] I.M.famous XMAN:
Type "*.*" w/o quotes, in for the file name and you should see all files in the current folder. just select the tot. If you are doing this in emergency download mode (edm) you will need the test mode fix. edm flashes will put you into test mode (which means no usb mass storage).
[LG Revolution] tvmrfixit:
I was installing a ROM with the back cover off, dropped the phone and the battery fell out. After that all I got was a blank backlit screen after boot logo froze. I was going to just flash a .tot to get stock and then factory restore to get it out of test mode but found I couldn't select the proper file. I followed the instructions as specified in the thread but still shows nothing. The file type box shows ".csv" normally you can select all file types here but not this time no other options existed. Could it be because of WindowsXP? Wish I had taken a photo when I was there but phone was inop.

Since I could get to recovery I tried factory reset to no avail. /System failed or something like that. Same when I tried to restore a backup I had made in CWM recovery last week.

I decided to try flashing BO from SD and it worked, I have an operational phone again. Installed beastcandy theme and I'm happy for now.

I may still want to go back to a stock ROM later so getting this cleared up now wont be a bad idea.

I'm not sure if you saw but the ZV9.tot files are missing from the file in the link above So I downloaded ZV8. By the time I get to it ZVB may have a .tot as well
[LG Revolution] contagust:
Im in Serious Trouble and need help please!!!

To whomever will help me i thank you in advance,

I have the phone in mentioning and i think i have bricked it ridiculously. it turns on with the power button but will not turn off with it once it is is on the home screen. the home screen is completely black. i tried using the recovery format method at first and restart from scratch. that didnt work. I plugged my phone into my laptop and now it doesnt recognize all the installations needed. the vzw modem i believe is the only one not installing. in turn this is not letting me see the internal or external sd card. i have no idea what to do anymore. plus on top of that this phone was flashed to page plus and when doing the format method i lost that as well. someone please help me. im literally begging. ima bit of a noob. i can follow instructions easily though. Thanks so much in advance.

by the way my email address is kikoman1982@gmail.com
[LG Revolution] tvmrfixit:
Just enter recovery mode and flash a ROM like I just did. Breakout2.0.1 is a good base ROM, then pick a theme (VoltedIce, MarbleFrosted, BeastCandy, etc) from the themes and apps forum and flash that. Once it settles about 1 week, touchscreen freezes will become less frequent (5-10 per day, I'm on mine a lot), force closes are almost non-existent.

If you still want a stock ROM, flash a .tot file once it is operational. Follow instructions in the first post on this thread. I found no need to continue with this process so I have not attempted it again. HTH
