i am clueless...

I have SU640... running ICS.

I wanted to install CWM so I read around and found that I'll have to go through unbricking to install CWM...

I put my phone to Download mode

Start the update process

--1-- on the R&D Test tool "CDMA" is selected as type and "Emergency" mode is selected

--2-- i browse for kdz file LG-SU640-V10F_00.kdz

--3-- click CSE Web upgrade test

--4-- Select country and language

--5-- Click "Start Upgrade"

The process starts, but when I get my first "Model dll msg not found (2004,90)" message, the phone reboots into the ICS rom

The upgrade process continues till (2004,100) then reboots again into ICS Rom.

Then (2001,0) msg is show on console.

But I am not back to Gingerbread. what am i doing wrong ?

----------------------------------------

Fixed... downloaded v10f image for su640 from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1784709 and followed the same procedure.

everything worked like a charm
[LG Nitro HD] salimbaba:
After doing the KDz method, when you reboot into v10f ... is it necessary to do the following:

adb shell

su

dd if=/sdcard/boot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8

dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13

dd if=/sdcard/firmware.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1

dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p27

dd if=/sdcard/baseband.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p14

What if I just root v10F using SuperOneClick, install CWM using downloaded image from CWM website. reboot into recovery and flash a downloaded ROM using CWM.

should it work ?

not sure if bricked or broken!!

Newbie here to the developer site....

I have an LG Nitro....

I Had issues with the microphone... so ordered/ opened and replaced the microphone cable....

phone when back together well... and worked...

but after a week or so... it locked-up and died.... but came back to life a few hours later.

A week later... phone froze.... totally frozen screen....

I had to pull the battery to clear it...

but when I put the battery back in...

it won't fully boot..

I get a nice big bright clear LG start logo... for a few seconds... then black then another LG logo... which immediately FADES and gets some

horizontal lines through the logo and then fades to gray and then all gone.

I CAN... get it into the factory hard reset sequence ... but when I tell it to RESET... it then goes to that fading logo with the lines screen.

I'm not sure if I screwed-up the phone in the repair.... or did it get bricked for

Repair reasons or just coincidence??

ANY input or links to repair manuals will be greatly appreciated!

tks

[LG Nitro HD] Sandpapers:
Having a little trouble. I'm in download mode, ran the tools and marwin update thing. Selected the kdz file, started to flash it and the phone update software is saying updating.

Problem is it goes for about 5 mins, and then tells me to restart, unplug the cord and power on to restart the process.

2:06:40 : MODEL DLL Event : (2004, 42)

12:06:40 : Model Dll Msg Not Found(2004, 42)

Keeps saying that in the console. Any ideas?

EDIT: Finally got it working. Thanks
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Yeah, that's "normal". Just let it do its thing til your phone reboots. I think when I got that message about unplugging and power on I just rebooted it and put it right back in download mode. I don't remember really, I just know when it was done it booted straight to the SU-640 rom.
[LG Nitro HD] LGSU640:
Can anyone upload the baseband of AT&T Nitro HD？

SU640 use the baseband of P930,can't receive signal frequently.
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
The baseband.img linked in my initial post is the Nitro baseband. I really don't recommend flashing it to your SU640 unless you're testing something and please make a backup of yours first so you can go back later.
[LG Nitro HD] LGSU640:
mmm，i've got the Nitro HD and P930 basebands，and both of them can work on my SU640.

The signal SU640>P930≈Nitro HD
[LG Nitro HD] repherb:
I can confirm and agree with Manilion, do NOT flash your baseband unless you absolutely have to!!

I Have my Bell Optimus LTE 4G and i preserved my baseband img file throughout my flashing cycles, and trust me, IT SAVED MY BUTT!!
[LG Nitro HD] Sandpapers:
Oh, I guess I should add that this setup saved my torn up nitro hd. By following the instructions on the first page, except switching

dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p27

dd if=/sdcard/baseband.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p14

to

dd if=/sdcard/baseband.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p14

dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p27

did it work for me.

For some reason having system before my baseband was coming up with my sd card not being read anymore. I don't know if this screwed up my at&t connectivity. I recently swapped to t mobile and will be with them for 2 months. Until then, I would say this method completely restored my LG Nitro HD P930
[LG Nitro HD] LGSU640:
Su640 baseband can only use GPRS，Nitro HD and P930 baseband can use EDGE.

In China，GPRS download speed 5kb/s，EDGE download speed 15kb/s.

that's why I flash other baseband to my SU640.
[LG Nitro HD] repherb:
So we now know, from your experimenting Sandpapers and LGSU640 that the order of restoring the image files matters:

1. boot

2. recovery

3. firmware

4. baseband

5. system

Do i have that right folks?

here is what i know so far about the partitions:

mmcblk0p1 - boot partition - doesn't matter regarding flashing for carrier <GENERIC>

mmcblk0p8 - recovery partition - doesn't matter regarding flashing for carrier <GENERIC>

mmcblk0p13 - firmware partition - doesn't matter regarding flashing for carrier <GENERIC>

mmcblk0p14 - baseband partition - Carrier specific, contains frequency and carrier info

mmcblk0p27 - system partition - Carrier specific software/bloating, transferable amongst carriers

I recovered from a bricked phone with the SU640 .kdz file and Marwin flasher (it will force emergency download mode) to get me back up to a working unit.

Then I transferred the baseband.img file to my sdcard and flashed partition 14 via dd writes (dd if=/sdcard/<whatever>.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p<whatever>/), which brought me back to Bell baseband (i backed it up before bricking the phone).

I transferred the 1, 8, 13, 27 Nitro image files to my sdcard and flashed only partitions 1, 8, 13, 27 from Nitro HD images to get to a full working phone with no FC's.

Then I transferred the Bell system.img file to my sdcard and flashed the Bell 27 partition image from keenz (big thx buddy!) to get back to a Bell rooted stock unit.

I have found that partitions 14 and 27 are all that determine who your carrier is. 1, 8, 13 are generic across the P930's.

Doing it this way restored & unlocked my baseband, recovered my apps from Bell and allowed me to get back to stock!!
[LG Nitro HD] johnnobts:
quick and probably dumb question, but the links to a dropbox file for the boot.img shows up as a text on a webpage. do i just copy the text to notepad, save as boot.img.txt, and then delete the txt? Or am I totally wrong?
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Not a dumb question at all. The guy who created them had to rename them from .img to .txt to upload them there. Right click the link and save as and just strip off the .txt and rename to .img and you'll be fine. Unless you've bricked your phone, though, it's just as easy to get them from your own phone.
[LG Nitro HD] johnnobts:
thanks for the quick reply back, have all my necessary files downloaded, and now having issues pushing them to sdcard via adb for some reason... "failed to copy.... Is a directory"

nevermind, missing slash at the end (/sdcard/)
[LG Nitro HD] keenz:
hm

What is the exact command you are giving?

just mount your phone and drag and drop onto your sdcard. Make a dir on the root of your sdcard "rom" or what ever you want
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
You know what,I think I forgot to put slashes on the end of the /sdcard. Should be /sdcard/, let me know if that works
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
That would work too lol. I guess I just did everything through adb because it was convenient for later when flashing the images.
[LG Nitro HD] keenz:
haha all good man, drag and drop is easier. The freedom of being able to mount on any OS is very nice.

I'm still asking myself why I ventured away from Android in the first place. I had to check out an iphone.

All my computers are linux, wtf was I thinking

drr, I should finish.

Back with the Nitro happy once again.
[LG Nitro HD] johnnobts:
success! thanks a ton for the tutorial and files. glad to know i can piddle with this phone more freely without fear of permanently borking it.
[LG Nitro HD] Machzelet:
Please HELP!

I changed original framework-res.apk with one else, but forgot to change permissions before, and now I have bootloop. I tried to understand how to restore my device from the first post, but its really hard for me. Can anyone help me with step-by-step guide for newbie? Please!

I installed drivers, sdk tools, and other tools, but cant understand what i have to do.
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
I will do my best to clarify any instructions you need help with. Ask away :-)
[LG Nitro HD] Machzelet:
I tried to run adb devices, but it doesnt work.

I'm not a programmer, and I dont know computers.

And what i have to flash if the problem is framework-res.apk?
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
If you don't know how to add the ADB directory to your system path, you need to be in the directory that you have ADB saved to (use the cd command). If you don't put ADB in your path, change the "adb" commands to "adb.exe" and they should work assuming you're in the right directory. To make it easier on yourself, you might want to just copy the image files to your SD card by mounting your phone in windows.

Have you made it to the point where you're booted into the SU640 rom and rooted?
[LG Nitro HD] Machzelet:
The problem with the ADB, I decided. Thank Google! I must begin with the installation of SU640 rom and rooted?
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Yeah, that's the biggest hurdle and scariest moment in this whole process in my opinion. I was freaking out when I took the plunge.
[LG Nitro HD] Machzelet:
Oh, it stucked with 4% on updating SU640 and run errors on window below.

And the phone stucked with "Download Mode" on screen. Is it OK?
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
That was what happened to me, but my phone still booted to the SU640 rom by itself and then I just killed the LG update tool.
[LG Nitro HD] Machzelet:
Yeah, my phone waked up! Rooting right now.

The next step is move all the image files to sdcard?

Oh no, I can't root my phone. SuperOneClick stucked when the phone made first reboot.

Error: "Bad luck, our rush did not succeed :("
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Keep at it, make sure debug mode is enabled. Maybe try DoomLord's root script. And yeah, move the image files to the sdcard. You're making progress :-)
[LG Nitro HD] gte460z:
It may take several attempts to root the phone, keep trying!
[LG Nitro HD] Machzelet:
OK, I succeeded to root the phone, and I just flashed the 5 image files via cmd.

But now the phone doesnt wake up. When I try to make factory reset he writes "Enter the fastboot... Long time no see!"

Where is my mistake?
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
I think you flashed the recovery image wrong. Does the phone boot normally?
[LG Nitro HD] Machzelet:
No, he is not. And now my PC can't to connect to the phone via cmd. Is that means that I need to start from the beginning - flash korean rom, make root and flash image files again?
[LG Nitro HD] gte460z:
Yeah, you will need to start over with the korean rom if you can't connect via cmd/adb.
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Unfortunately, I think so. Sorry for the setback :-(

How did you download your boot and recovery images? Did you right click and save it as a .img?
[LG Nitro HD] Machzelet:
No, it opened with notepad when finished download and i saved it like txt file and cleared the txt in the end.

Can you upload this files like .img files with megaupload?

And what i need to do when i finish to flash system.img via cmd?
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
I'm sorry, I feel like I should have explained it better. When the guy who made the images uploaded them to his dropbox he had to add .txt to the end so it would upload. You need to redownload those two files (boot and recovery), but this time just save them as .img or rename the files after you download them. Don't do anything in notepad lol. I think I'm going to reupload the files to reduce confusion :-)
[LG Nitro HD] keenz:
dropbox seems like a right classy service.

Maybe should use multiupoad haha.

when you click on the db link it comes up as https://dl.dropbox.com/u/17008026/boot.img.txt

now, right click and "Save link AS" and then delete the .txt so it is being saved to your computer as "recovery.img" instead of "recovery.img.txt"

much easier.

oh, did I mention... Dropbox is a classy service :)
[LG Nitro HD] Machzelet:
OMG! I did it!

Guys, you are awesome! Thanks a lot to all of you!
[LG Nitro HD] repherb:
Gongratz Machzelet!!

oh god keenz, shameless plug eh? LOL!
[LG Nitro HD] Machzelet:
BTW, if we have all the images of AT&T's rom (i mean boot, recovery, etc.), why we can't make them one image like .KDZ and just flash it to restore the original Nitro HD`s rom?
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Glad your phone's back in action :-)

There are two reasons why I haven't tried to create a custom .kdz. First, I don't really have the knowledge required and second, it'd be pretty pointless to do if CWM is working soon.
[LG Nitro HD] Machzelet:
Thanks for your help! :) How soon the CWM will work?
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Hard to say, but bytecode64 is doing excellent work trying to port it. I don't think we're that far away.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
well, i screwed up and will have to try this..........ugh.

---------- Post added at 05:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:03 PM ----------

thanks in advance.
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Sorry you bricked your phone, hopefully my guide here will be pretty much obsolete soon (except for the truly careless cases) and we'll have an easier path to recovery via CWM.

Let me know if you have any specific questions :)
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
the phone is now showing the LG optimus LTE screen with the red candycane time bar underneath, it's been on that screen since a reboot 4-5 minutes ago.

this is after clicking *start upgrade*

i didn't get the switch to english pop up, nor did the % installed move to 4% (it did not move at all)

Should I just unplug? reboot?
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Yeah, I'm sure it's done so it should be safe to unplug. Since it hasn't booted all the way, I'd recommend trying to hard reboot it. If it still won't come up, factory reset. If it still doesn't come up, try flashing the .kdz again. Since it is showing the LG optimus lte screen, it flashed something.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
well, i messed it up. i got confused when the cse webupgrade test window popped up, i simply closed it via the close box and clicked start upgrade (i thought the *upgrade start* instructions was simply written backwards) in the original box, now the phone is stuck on that LG optimus LTE screen, i have to remove the battery to kill the phone and it won't let me boot up in d/l mode

any suggestions?
[LG Nitro HD] gte460z:
can adb see the phone when it is stuck on the logo? if so you can issue the reboot to download mode command and try again.
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Any luck reflashing it outside of download mode? Maybe battery charging mode would work, I didn't test it.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
I can't figure out how to get adb going. I have it all installed but when I run cmd then adb devices I get "that is not a recognized command" Obviously, i do not have the command line correctly set-up, I've changed the path in properties but can't get it recognized.

I'm not sure what you mean about trying this in battery charging mode, please expand, but the device is still sticking in boot up.
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
I mean the screen with the battery when the phone is "off", but still charging. It might be possible to flash the .kdz again even outside download mode.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
no such luck.
[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Same from factory data reset mode?
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
correct, on factory reset the phone displays the 1st LG logo screen but instead of displaying the next one, it goes straight to the LG Optimus LTE logo screen and candy cane where is promptly gets stuck. I either flashed something entirely wrong or partially flashed something. assuming.

I am reading some adb user guides but am not getting the newbie info i need, can someone let me know how to set the path correctly so i can run the adb commands from the command line? thanks

---------- Post added at 08:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:06 PM ----------

snooping around with the command prompt and am looking at the directories in android path sdk setup and I can't find the adb shell command or devices command.

anyone help in pointing those out?

c:\program files\andoid>
[LG Nitro HD] Machzelet:
Put ADB folder in C:/ directory, go to the Desktop, right click on My Computer, Properties, Advanced, Environment Variables, in the bottom window double click on Path, in the end add C:/ADB
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
thank you, i've done that but now the program can't find java. i've moved this over to a new computer and am giving it all another whirl.
[LG Nitro HD] Machzelet:
Do you have java & sdk tools installed on your computer?
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
yes, although sdk did not like the java, even though it acknowledged it on install when i finally made the right command line, it came back with an error message about java. so i figured i'd move this over to another machine and give it all another whirl. i don't think it will work though, phone won't go into d/l mode.

---------- Post added at 10:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:15 PM ----------

well, 9 hours in on this to no avail. looks like a fresh nitro is in my future.
[LG Nitro HD] Machzelet:
Keep trying to insert your phone into d/l mode. When I bricked my Nitro, it took me about 20 times before I could insert the phone into d/l mode.

You'll see that you succeed!
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
appreciated!

i will.

just to double-check, that's just volume up and power on eh? it doesn't have to be plugged in at the time to still go into d/l mode right?

!
[LG Nitro HD] Machzelet:
Yep! You're right.
[LG Nitro HD] gte460z:
Best way to get into download mode is to hold up volume button and then plug in the usb while the phone is powered off. Power button is unnecessary. In-fact, I just tried and volume up + power does NOT take you to download mode, it just turns on the phone like normal. They only way to get into download mode is volume up then plug in usb from a powered off state.

I've attached a screen grab, it's installed properly (adb changed the structure and the exe commands, but now, as you can see, adb does not recognize commands or even the phone.

any suggestions?
[LG Nitro HD] gte460z:
you have to enable debugging mode on your phone in the development menu and also when you plug in the phone select pc mode. You will then be able to use adb and it will find your phone.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
thank you. I keep having to change that and then i forget i changed it. anyhoo, 2 of the img files are in place the other 3 are giving me *cannot open for read* messages, so it shouldn't be too much longer.//////////

[LG Nitro HD] Malnilion:
Edit, w00t! I was so worried you had permanently bricked your phone lol. I'm glad the guide worked for you even though it's not easy to follow in some parts. I will definitely continue trying to improve it :-)
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
I read the instructions and many parts of this thread prolly over a dozen times, I can't really find any glaringly difficult parts to understand. The issues I had were my fault. I read some parts wrong and also thought some other things would be cut&dry when I should of been paying more attention. Also, not even opening a DOS prompt in a good 15-20 years meant i had to start at square 1 with the shell commands.

But it was a very good learning experience and thank you very much for all your efforts putting this together and your concern.

Appreciated!!
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
i don't think i flashed the baseband properly, the one installed is shown as

su640-mdm9200b-v10f-oct-28-2011-xx-1

is that right?

also, i figured i would just quickly reflash this image this morning but the darn adb app can't see my device. i've checked it's on pc software, i've rebooted my box, etc.

any suggestions on why adb can't see this thing?
[LG Nitro HD] gte460z:
you probably need to re-enable usb debugging.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
thank you.

ugh, what keeps turning that off? it turned itself off in the middle of my farting around with adb, anyway to keep that enabled?
[LG Nitro HD] gte460z:
it turns off every time you use a mode other than pc software.
[LG Nitro HD] scott0:
well, hmm, I messed up again and now the phone is stuck on the boot screen with on-screen showing::

enter the fastboot...

enter the fastboot...

long time no see!

any suggestions?

Does removing the battery do the trick?
